For a long time we have been trying to figure out the best way to figure out the top 5 best non EMP players of NY. Players have too many life issues going on to have all the best players in one tourney. So I am proposing something that will help eliminate this problem as well as have the best representation for our city to verse the undefeated EMP.
I will have a round robin to take place at my house to determine the best 4 out of 5 players to represent NY(Li Joe has the guaranteed slot). Free food and drinks will be provided. Round robins take a long time so we don?t need players entering to waste time unless they are confident they can make top four. for this reason this last RR will be an invitation only
The last place for this event (4th place. being that Li joe will automatically take the last spot.) will have to go up against Chris hu whenever he gets back. Until then that will be our solid 5.
this will be the last RR on march 3rd 2010 for the 5v5.i will be glad to throw more casual RR after this.
no disrespect to anyone but i don’t see the reason for this event. Isn’t the obvious nyc team Ricosuave, Javits, LiJoe, Aquasilk, and ChrisHu? That’s the team everyone wants to see go against EMP, and honestly that’s the only team i see that can beat EMP. Instead of rushing this event, I think you should wait until those actual 5 players are available to face off against EMP
this is the only way to determine the 5 for the team. if what you say is right then they should have no problem getting the top 4 minus chris hu. this is why he is not excluded. and who is to say that all the ppl you didnt mentioned fell off? anyway its obv not a waste if the ppl you mentioned are down for it. then it would be undenyable not just picking
No harm in playing, plus some great matches will be fought and put on Livestream/YouTube so why not?
citi, I work over in Woodside so your house is probably really close, I’d be down to attend. Just PM me your address with any details like start time (I assume this Wednesday the 17th will be the first night). I know no one really knows who I am but I do think I have a pretty good Ryu and I’ve played with the others listed like Aqua and AuLord who can probably vouch. I’ve also been in the lab training hard since the last tourney I was in which I think was BA7, so it won’t be a waste of time for me to show up.
