Hope to see most of the Super Arcade/Socal ST crew this Saturday. With a large venue being utilized by the Revelations staff, we’re hoping to see new players in attendance in addition to new players trying ST for the first time.
For this event to truly be a success, we’ll need some assistance from the community
Just a few things that we need to make the event run even better. Anyone have/willing to bring the following:
1 CRT VGA monitor
Recording Equipment - Camera, Smartpone, etc
-1 Labtop for streaming
Were any of the matches recorded? Results? Brackets? How many entrants? Did any of that Revelations/Tournament Legacy/John Nelson drama extend to ST as well?
ST was a side tourney so there was no drama involved with the tournament (we could have just run this at Super Arcade, lol). Though as a result of all this drama I decided not to send out updates on Twitter and I’ve been kind of keeping everything on the down low. This is just my view on it though and I don’t want to speak for DG/V or anyone else.
But the tourney turned out well. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to stream or capture direct video because it caused too much lag on the machine running Mame and we think there was some sort of XP compatibility issue with the VGA adapter to capture from a separate laptop, so we had to go old school and record the matches with a handheld camera. I’ll see if I can get the videos up sometime this week.
Big thanks to Cesar for running the brackets. I’m posting the results for him.
Results:
AfroLegends (Dee Jay / Boxer / O. Guile)
Ultracombo (O. Sagat)
SnakeEyez (Zangief, Ryu)
Shotosallday (Dee Jay / O. Sagat / Zangief / Ryu / Boxer)
I want to give a big thanks to Ken and Tai for putting in a ton of hard work to put this tournament on. Despite all the drama surrounding Revelations, I had a blast hanging out with the ST crew again.
wow looking at the bracket snakeeyez is hella good as well as shotosallday
i think snakeeyez is totally legit as long as he can use his pad.
ultracombo representing norcal
can’t wait for the videos.
hey afro, you should post the pic of the trophy here.
it looks massive!
GGs to everyone at the tourney…it was hella fun! We battled through a lot of hiccups at the beginning with locating the place(in the middle of a shopping center) and getting the equipment to the 3rd floor but once things started, everything was ran smoothly. Had a blast with everyone(Mike, Ali, Bob) at the sushi bar, good times. Big ups to DGV for investing their own money on some bad ass trophies! DGV > John Nelson all day, everyday.
