Posted it over to SRK Calendar too just so its there.

Copy and pasting this at VFDC so hopefully Sega gets in touch with you guys about bringing a demo of VF5:FS.

Is 3s likely to be a side event?

Already on the calendar I believe.

3’s - Not sure. We have a LOT of games to get through in just 1v1s. But we will be talking about that this week and trying to get a schedule together.

No he meant third strike not teams

Is there a possibility for Melty Blood to be run as a side tournament? The Melty Blood community up here can run everything since it runs on PC.

ahh right 3rd Strike.

In Regards to 3S and Melty:
Right now we have a ton on our plate with games. We have one or two not even listed yet as details are not out there for it, but sponsors are signed on for us to do it. We will be discussing line up and finalizing it in a week or so.
The issue will come down to set ups and room and time.

Nice! I will definitely be going to this!

Couldn’t make the last one in Nov, but definitely gonna go to this one.

What about the gems in SFxT, using them or not using them? and do players have a chance to select there gems before the match? i heard evo is not using gems but idk

Gems won’t be determined until AFTER Capcom does any type of release for the Flash Drive thing, and then there will be a decision.

Updated with Venue, Hotels and Registration

Awesome! I’m excited.

Requested time off for this one =]

This is taking place at my school. Very nice I like it!!

So will there be space available for people to run side tournaments? I’ve been trying to rally people up for NWM4 Melty Blood, just wondering if we can get a space for it. (It’ll probably run on 2 laptops)

As far as side tournaments, I cannot confirm NOR deny it, but I can tell you this. That if someone were to come to play in only a melty blood tournament, they will still be paying the tournament registration fee.

Naw that’s fine. We’re planning on registering soon anyway

Will there be a spectator fee? Or is it free to watch?
