Moreno Valley, CA- Round 1 SSFIV weekly RanBats

Round 1 USA Moreno Valley Mall is going have a street fighter 4 tournament every Thursday starting 11/29 $5 to enter 100% goes to pot 2/3 matches double elimination pay-per-play (game card req.) Pot split 70/20/10 among top 3 players. Starts at 7 pm

Remember this is weekly. If you’re in the Inland Empire definitely come out to Round 1 MoVal tonight for some hype AE action!!! tournament Starts at 7pm. I’ll see you all there!

I thought it was pretty shady how the SF4 AE tournament was dealt with tonight. Many of the finalists were informed AFTER they had won that Round 1 would not be distributing cash prizes ( I could count on one hand the number of players that were just as perplexed as me when this was announced, the guy running the tournament said he announced it earlier, but many of us have no recollection of this announcement ), but some credit system, which is bogus to me. Alot of the players were turned off by this change, as we already spend very close to 15-20 dollars each per person ( if you do the math 5 bucks entry, 2 out of 3 games, every player has to swipe 2x per game win or lose, game is like 75 cents a pop for about a 16 man bracket ). Round 1 is already overpriced and you decide to shoot yourself in the foot business wise with this decision. NO ONE is going to play these tournaments just for credit, you’ve just discouraged the growing community that shows up to these events.

darn thats dumb oh well guess i wont hit this up

Actually Round 1 has went back to distributing cash prizes, all you have to do is just sign a waiver. I commend Round 1 with bringing it back to the original way of rewarding the winners of their tournaments

Yea I think that was a good move on their part. That would of definitely killed the scene there. Now we still got a chance of hyping it up! Let’s go people this Thursday come down for some AE action@Round1 MoVal. We usually have a consistent turn out of around 10-12 people. Lets get it up to at least 20 every week c’mon guys!!!

They need to seriously drop the price on these arcades down during the tournaments. It’s not anything worth going to when you pay 75 cent’s per game even as you win. I was thoroughly embarrassed when I had to ask the community to swipe there cards for me when I ran out of money after I dropped like 15 dollars. I could have spent at least 5 of that on drinks but no… I haven’t been since. Step your game up round 1. The reason we go to these tournaments is because there is people there to actually play with. I’m pretty sure any other day of the week these cabs are empty. They are nice cabs and I know you want to get your money out of them but hot damn. Drop it down to 25 cents during tourny play if you want to form a community around them.

yeah or maybe 50 cents, it is a bit pricey, everyone that used to go just stopped ( as well as myself ). there was a solid 20-22 players that were pretty hyped before, but they all dissapeared

Ya if i had money to shell out like that i would but i don’t. And really who does in this economy.

hey guys, Round One did a very gracious thing and has set the SF4AE machines to 2 credits for the Thursday Night tournaments.id like to thank R1 for their generosity and keeping the players in mind. MatrixMatt and Tasty Steve showed up last Thurs to support the tournament, and I hope to see some familiar faces again this Thurs.

Anybody wanna buy a brand new Hitbox arcade stick from me? I have one and never use it. So I’m selling for $125.00. I got it brand new for $159 + $20 for shipping, paid $179 for it. So It’s $50 reduced. call me or text if you’re interested, and we can meet up some place and trade. 951-710-7141

Attention, Round 1 has changed these to be on every other week on Thursdays. Will pick up on March 28th

Tournament today starting at 8 pm, hope to see people there :slight_smile:

So are these still going? I use to go to the ranbats but moved And came back one Thursday just to see what’s going on and didn’t see anybody… the community here was the shit tho… where do you all play at now?

Yo is there anything going on tonight? Finally done with the school quarter I can actually start playing again. I plan to drop by tonight with a couple friends.
