Giving the RS thread here some love…
We just announced two more pots of $2,000.00; Tekken 6 and Guitar Hero World Tour. That means the guaranteed prizes for DEVASTATION are at $10,00.00 as of right now…

I’ll be there for all the KoF’s (Except XI) and MOTW. Hopefully Giby can make it out as well. See you guys soon.
Thank you thank you!!!
Webster- yessir come on down…depending on things I just may end up putting everything into this one right now as judging by the response on 2002UM I may decide to have a bonus pot for that as well and MAYBE just push the EP one to January…because 2002 UM is blowing up…
**
MAJOR EDIT: **Okay guys yes after going to Final Round and seeing just how much hype Garou MOTW drew…it’s confirmed…I am going to put the El Paso Major on hold so I can focus on the Phoenix Major. That means everything now is going to the Phoenix Major…
Also the bonus pot for 2002 Neo Geo has been dropped. It has been added to 2002 UM.
Meaning tentatively speaking this is what’s on the board:
**
1st- $500 bonus pot 1st place 98UM
2nd- $500 bonus pot 1st place KOF 2002 UM
3rd- $500 bonus pot Garou MOTW 1st place**
-DG
Well I just made another change after talking to Oscar.
Garou MOTW now has a $500 bonus pot…so spread the word Noc…

Looking good. You’re making me jealous that I can’t make it to Devastation/Raging Storm. The El Paso Major still better be happenign dude!
Yeah, I’ll be in a lot of debt if this goes down as planned.
The El Paso major will be happening…but at another time because I gotta recuperate the money I’m gonna spend on this. 1up from Europe (Europes KOF 2002 best player) is confirmed to go to Phoenix instead of El Paso…and Ryan Hart is looking good too (I mean damn hes got sooooooooo many other games to play at DEVASTATION 2009)
Well the EP Major is planned…just I gotta postpone it because I’m putting most of my funds into this event now because quite simple we got wayyyyyyyyyy too much potential here…it just keeps blowing up in Phoenix serious… Final Round XII did nothing but BLOW IT UP EVEN MORE!!!
:looney:
EDIT: Though American rules right now have Goenitz as legal, for now to unite American and Northern Mexican rules…
Goenitz is banned at the Raging Storm 2009 2002UM tournament. Regular Geese + the EX characters are legal however.
Why is Goenitz banned?
Dunno…but thats the rules based off the Mexican 2k2UM tournament… apparently they agreed on something like “No bosses” so they count Goenitz as a boss…and they dont count Geese as a boss…plus Geese didnt even win that tournament…(and he was played in the tournament by two people)
-DG
Yea we need to talk sir. Hit me up on aim.
…Mexicans…sigh
They didn’t ban Angel or May Lee, and yet they choose to ban Goenitz but not Geese.
I guess they don’t mind “broken” characters unless they force them to block or actually think.
I’m online now lol. Also I just put your “DVD” in the mail right now…priority…so please let me know when you get it!
I dunno…but since we can’t control what rules govern different countries…
EDIT:
Team tournament in Garou MOTW I have planned…
East Coast vs. West Coast!!!
Its been a long time coming!!!
East Coast (AceUno-Justin Wong) vs. West Coast (Nocturnal and Giby) 2v2!!! Noc Giby you down?
-DG
I guess that this is passing as the new “arcade perfect” standard.
Hi guys, I just got back from a really nice 2k2UM tournament in Mexico and I was talking to DG about the rules. They keep it very simple in Mexico bosses are banned no matter what and since **NORMAL **GEESE has never been a boss in any KOF they allow him. I believe that simplifies thing instead of arguing about who is banned and who is not.
What is funny is that none of the tournament organizers mention the rules before the tournament they just automatically didn’t pick any bosses and it was not an issue until I open my mouth before the semi-finals about allowing the boss characters and Geese :P. Then things stoped for a minute and the organizer made it official and the tournamet resumed.
Also MARIN a top Mexican player from Sinaloa won the tournament using IORI,CLARK and CHOI. He is the one who came to CALIFORNIA and beat the crap out of everybody in KOF 2k2 two weeks ago, he has confirmed his assistance to the DEVASTATION Tournament.
It doesn’t matter who has been a boss before, what matters is who is BROKEN enough to be bannable.
Goenitz is not a boss character in 2k2 UM nor is he broken. As DG said, Geese is definitely better than he is.
Update everyone: There will be a badge at DEVASTATION for the SNK players…so if you are with Raging Storm you’ll have a badge to identify yourself with it. Also the website is being updated so hold on (if you wanna pre-reg)…when it returns you’ll see info about Raging Storm 2009…
