Tournament Rules
SFSF is a double elimination tournament. Matches consist of 2 out of 3 the games. Best of 3 rounds, 99 time limit. Finals consist of 3 out of 5 matches. Both players have to mutually agree on which side they’ll play on (1P/2P); if they cannot come to an agreement, a coin toss will determine who gets to pick their side. Blind pick will be enforced by the judge unless both players request standard selection. Programmable controls are banned; button macros (i.e. PPP/KKK) are fine. Pausing the game counts as a forfeit of the round unless opponent chooses to waive this option. Console characters are allowed. Random stage will be used.
Haha. Everybody has a plan until they get hit… by another tournament.
While this tournament does sound very, very interesting, I think those of us in the fighting game community who work a 9 to 5 are going to have issues getting to the venue on a Friday at noon. (That’s like what, 2% of the community?)
Jokes aside, I feel that holding this on a Friday is going to deter some players. I’m speculating, but people who are traveling from out of town for NCR probably won’t take the extra day off, or the extra hour and a half drive (three coming back and forth) not including car rental to make this event.
Why not run it on Saturday the 14th or Sunday the 15th? You won’t hit Thanksgiving weekend doing it the following week, and you don’t run into other tournaments the week you’ve scheduled.
Alright guys… after speaking with the venue, I’ve gotten the date changed to Saturday the 14th! So please, if you guys are interested, pre-register so we can have a good idea of the turn out.
Does anyone know how I can change the date on the Title of the post? lol
