[May 18, 2013] East Coast Throwdown V (Morristown, NJ)

so when you say:
SF4, Marvel, SFxT, Tekken, SCV, KoF, Persona, GG, BB, MK9, Injustice Pools Begin - Noon (New pools will start every 2 hours, so 12, 2, 4, 6pm)

I assume you have the two lists corresponding to each other, IE
SF4: 12
Marvel 2
etc

Sorry, was writing that at work, didn’t have time to be explicit. Those games will all start at the same time and run with a pool system. For example:

Street Fighter 4 has 16 pools, each having 16 players, max 256 players
Pools 1-4 will start at 12
Pools 5-8 will start at 2
Pools 9-12 will start at 4
Pools 13-16 will start at 6

Same applies for Marvel. Games like SFxT, Injustice, MK9, which will probably have less than 128 players, will only run 2 pools at a time, on the same schedule. If you pre-register, I can ensure that you won’t have to play two games at the same time since your pools will be created beforehand.

Check your PMs sir!

Will any game on ps3 change to xbox prior to the tournament date?

Marvel, SF4, and SFxT will be on 360. I believe that’s reflected on the website, I’ll double check on all forum posts.

thank you very much for the reply I know what to bring on pad and/or stick now.

At Final Round 16, the rules for Tekken Tag 2 were 2/3 matches for pools, but 3/5 matches after pools (aka Top 64). Will ECT be using the same ruleset?

We can most certainly rock this.

Any dual modders will be at the scene?

It still says that most games will be on PS3 at the tournament on the registration page.

This is really disappointing, as I’m not sure I’ll be able to play in the event now. I only just realized I’d be in town for the event and thankfully I checked these forums before just registering or else I’d be screwed.

Wow, really sorry about that. It’s reflected on the actual rules page but not the registration page. I’m fixing that right now. Thanks for pointing it out.

Just got word from Gummo that he will be present and modding all weekend!

Any idea on his price for a dual mod from past events? Or any way to contact him to find out?

Sorry for the dumb question:

The $30 registration fee ($45 at the door) is just to attend the event, regardless of whether or not you’re participating, right?

Also, is there a roster published anywhere of who will be playing?

If you’re just spectating, it’s $20 for the weekend. The pools will be posted a week before the event with the full roster.

Few things:

4 AND A HALF HOURS LEFT TO REGISTER! www.ecthrowdown.com

There was some confusion about the bonus prize from One Frame Link. Here’s a more clear explanation:

$2000 SF4
$2000 Marvel
$1000 Injustice

$1000 to the game that has the most entries, EXCLUDING SF4, Marvel, and Injustice. So that means MK9 could get it, KoF13, SCV, Persona, any other game except the 3 already getting the bonus prize from OFL.

Also, Injustice will be on Xbox 360 as mentioned on the front page and our social media accounts.

$80 for dual mods.

Registration is open again for 48 hours! It’s closing at 12:00pm EST on Thursday so get on it! www.ecthrowdown.com

This is May 18th and 19th correct? or just may 18th?

Correct! Shoryuken’s thread naming system is funky and doesn’t show the correct time frame.

My body is ready. One of my favorite tournaments to attend. CAN’T WAIT
