I’m trying to spark interest in competition in games around here. It’s a small town with barely any scene - I’d have to travel into Houston to play at tourneys or get any locals with strong players. The goal was met, and I think people started to understand what being competitive really is. There’s a lot of fun to be had in competition in games, and I think I helped show that to these guys. A lot of them want to get better now.
The article names some of the games we played incorrectly, but at least they tried.
The school said we could host another tourney later on with entry fees and scholarship money on the line if we get successful enough, but really i’m just looking to spark interest in the area.
y’all should look into sponsorship deals, either local or nationwide like what super arcade had with benQ. it might help ya’ll out with set-ups for the next tourney
It’s good to see someone actually do something about getting a scene going…instead of bitching on the forums about actually leaving their comfort zone to get local competition.
I came for the same reason, until I saw the full details. Kinda hard for our scene to ever have a chance if we hate on the few times the community earns to call itself a community. Dude got on the news and used his love of gaming to try to help out. That seems thread worthy.
However, this thread is now about the prefered flavour of booty. My vote is for rusty pennies.
