Where would it be in the city now that SouthTown is shut down?

so talking to STA art and ipw Chris were planing on something with them in Oakland on march 23. please askaroundinckuding socal if they are interested in this!!!<br>

Hey please spread the word about that date, i really want to close this out ASAP. Post on facebook/twitter whatever yall use get feedback from our norcal guys and socal if they wanna come up.

There aren’t many details about what exactly this is. Perhaps you could shed some light on that before asking for a date? <br>Is it a qual for the ST Games? What’s the format gonna be? Where in Oakland? <br><br>PS: I have a final exam to take on March 23rd at 8AM. But that’s just me.<br>

Hey, so yeah it is basically a qual for ST games, I talked to kurroppi, he’s down with the idea, I’ll get venue info when I can, probably tomorrow, I’m just wondering if the date is OK for you guys. Basically I’ll have to talk to Kurroppi later to confirm how the other ones are being run. At the moment I can only give you guys this information.<br>

March 23rd is the best date ever.<br>

mizuki, if you want this to be run on the real thing, game center is the only way to do it (unless art from south town can provide the venue + the cabs)<div><br></div><div>my other board is still held by darkness and i can’t verify if my supergun is still working. it hasn’t been tested for 2 years.</div><div><br></div><div>also i already mentioned, i only have one crt left and my ps2 sticks are fubar’ed. I should have listened to ganelon about those madcatz pcbs…</div><div><br></div><div>gamecenter has 1 h2h and a CRT and ps2 sticks. i can bring my supergun and darkness can bring my board and we can have 2 setups</div>

Mizuki, as I mentioned to you in text, just set the date that works for your plan. We’ll all converge when we can. (Sorry Fudd. Just swing through right after your test and I’m sure we’ll still be around.)<div><br></div><div>It’s a qual for the ST tourneys at Evo?</div><div>If we’re going to promote the date, we should also know what exactly is going on.</div><div><br></div><div>It’s right for Fudd to be asking about more details.</div><div><br></div><div>Do we need like a teaser flyer or something?</div>

Alright, sorry about not much details, just been swamped with work and juggling 50 millions things right now such as making sure my friend will be alive the next day (fine now) and closing out like x number sponsorship potentials at work. Anyways here’s what I know from talking to respective people.<br><br>Art from STA has 2 possible venues, one either at his warehouse, or a location undisclosed at the moment in West Oakland. This is an East bay location, and can be easily accessed with minimal tolls, it’s also accessible by BART and I can volunteer to pick people up if needed from the station.<br><br>From Kurroppi, we’re running just a regular tournament, singles probably 2/3 matches, 3/5 set double elim for the qual, nothing special, we’re just looking for seeding points and we can do it this way.<br><br>Please if I’m missing details just keep pestering me about it, my brain is leaking all over the place and I’m trying to keep myself together with all this lol<br>Also I can probably get IPW to stream this shit for us!<br><br>The date is tentative to March 23, if this is a problem, let me know so I can pick a better date!!! If I can’t even get an answer if the date is alright with yall I can’t even get into more details if we can even meet at a date.<br>

the date seems ok …  <br><br>in consideration to Fudd , whats the official start time of the tourney ? <br>seems like a late afternoon time would cater better for some , say 1-2pm ?<br>

Don’t worry about me, fellas. If I make it, I make it.<br><br>If the 23rd is gravy for ya’ll, let it rock.<br>

So I’m talking to STA Art right now, I’m planning it to be on the 23rd of March, I’ll soon post up the venue we’ll have…<br><br>Kevin/Papasi, is there any way for you two to converge and get that supergun tested? I can supply a ps2 stick or two, I’ll see what I have lying around still. <br><br>Mike, can you get a flyer going post it on the different ST outlets and let people know?<br><br>Quals are just gunna be like I said earlier, double elim, 3/5 matches, 2/3 set. Thinking depending on how many people we have we can run another tournament Starcup style, just all depends on who/what we have.<br><br>Everyone else, get people to show up hype it up I’ll see if I can get IPW to come down to stream it. <br>

Questions<div><br></div><div>1. What is STA art going to provide ?  one head to head setup + japanese version of ST?  Will there be a CRT?</div><div>2. Is ST the only event at that venue on that date? </div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>How about a gathering at game center next friday? </div><div><br></div><div>Darkness can bring my board, I’ll bring my supergun and you can bring ps2 sticks so we can test it.</div><div><br></div><div>We can rent game center’s CRT and we can have 2 setup to play.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div>

I should be available on the 23rd. If I could get a ride, I would really appreciate it especially if it runs late.<div>Also, I think I can make it next Friday. It’s been a while since our last meet up, hopefully we can get some sessions going then.</div>

why wait till next friday when we can do it this friday ?<br><div align=“left”>the earlier we test, <br>the earlier we can confirm working setups and make solidified announcements.<br><br><br></div>

I thought of that but one day of notice seems too short.<div>who can go tomorrow then?</div><div><br></div><div>and who’s bringing ps2 sticks?</div>

ST ONLY!<br><br>Only game I care about fg wise unless we can have like KoF 98 players go too :P<br><br>I’m sure STA Art will only have his ST cab, I’ll double check and post up.<br>

<div>Hey Mizuki</div><div><br></div>Could you ask if is it H2H (2 cabs)? <div><br></div><div>We only need more than one setup right?<div>If you want supergun setup, will there be a CRT available at the venue?</div><div><br></div><div>Do you mind discussing why pick a new venue for the norcal qual instead of game center (I know it isn’t close to anyone)</div></div>

Hey, so he’s using a supergun for his setup actually, and the venue will have CRTs.<br><br>I chose to work with STA Art, as he’s been interested in actually holding one, but being busy he couldn’t do it on his own (Kurroppi and Art have been talking apparently or have talked in the past about this). Also working with STA Art we can get IPW to stream for optimal exposure.<br>

So who’s up for tomorrow ? I’m good to go .

here’s lookin @ u thrust … Again :-h
