Thank you Dan, im trying to get a lot of 3d gamers out to this. Talking to lots of groups so I expect a big turnout for those games! Bring down WI along with ya!

I’m doing what i can. The wisconsin and chicago numbers dwindle with each new release, but as usual I’ll do whatever it takes to help keep interest going. I’m looking forward to seeing what the new players can do by this time. Don’t be scared of the people who have been playing the game for almost a decade, is all i can really say. We will do what we can to make everyone who cares and want to put the time to learn the game better players.

I finalized everything in the other thread… lol

This should be a fun event. We should get a good turnout for the 3D fighters.

I’ll bring whatever equipment I can and provide what I can for set ups.

Should be able to get the people that are coming with me to bring stuff too. Can’t wait!

Yeah its looking like around 150-200 people!

Bump!

Michigan might make an appearance… Also are there any incentives for bringing a setup?

faster tournament? more casuals? ida know

It should be a big turnout, your missing out sanchaz.
