Santa Cruz

alright, I’mma see if I can use my place for tonight’s session. I’ll be sure to send you a text when I make sure

Cool, let me know what time and your address =]

i would play tonight but i think some of my friends wanted to hang out but if something changes i’ll hit you guys up.

shit, I don’t think I can do tonight’s session. My midterm is coming up soon and I got ton of homework to get finished. Sorry guys, next time for sure

SF4 Tournament @ UCSC a possibility!!!

**Hey guys, I’m speaking to my friend, an NA at UCSC, as i’m writing this post.
I have suggested to hold a Street Fighter 4 tournament at UCSC.

But in order for that to happen, I have to propose a clear plan of action.
That means that I will have to have your guys’ word to back me up on this.
Like, would you guys be down to attend a SF4 tournament at UCSC say, at the end of Fall quarter? Late November/Early December would be our best bet for the Tournament.

So, here’s my plan:

Tournament is double elimination.
64 entries only, maybe 128 if enough people show up, which I doubt… idk…
$5 entry fee – 100% goes to the pot.
The reason why i’m saying $5 entry fee is because since this will be a school held event, the largest prize that could be given is $50 gift card to 1st place. $20 gift card to 2nd, and maybe a free lunch at Quiznos for 3rd. kinda lame, huh? which is why i’m suggesting $5 entry fee.
That would mean that Winner gets like 5X64=320? a good $250, I would say if it’s split into 70/20/10.

Small prizes would be given on the side, say, a prize is given to the person who double perfects somebody, you know? That kind of stuff…

All characters unlocked.
The console is yet to be established, but i’m aiming for Xbox360 set-ups.
Because obviously I play 360, and can actually use my sticks lol…
but we can do our best to work things out

We can also post posters around UCSC to gather the hidden community at UCSC…

But again, without anyone backing me up, non of this is possible.

Anyone down??
Hit me up:

650-400-5594 (text it!!)
or just post saying you’re down!! XD**

Late November is NorCal Regionals. And since that is quickly approaching and given the amount of bureaucracy involved in doing school events, I think an end of the quarter tourney would be a good idea.

Also, I can donate a set up to this tourney, but I have a PS3 and would prefer playing on it.

I’m definitely down for the tourney either way. If you want it to happen before NCR I’ll do my best to help you out in whatever way I can.

Keep us posted!

I would be down for any tournaments on campus. I’d donate my TV/360 to the cause if need be, too. And spread some word around, cause I know a few people who play.

Awesome! Alright, i’ll begin talking to my friend about it.
I’ll keep you guys posted! =]

i’m down.

sounds like a pretty sick idea, I’m totally down

Alright you guys, my friend is going to be making some phone calls.
So here’s how it’s looking:
The first thing my friend and I had to decide was a day for the tournament.
The possibilities were:
November 14th, 28th, and December 5th (btw, these are all Saturdays).
Obviously we can’t do it on the 21st because it’s NorCal Regionals!
The 28th is Thanksgiving weekend.
The 5th is the weekend before finals week.
So, my friend and I concluded that November 14th should be the weekend for the tournament. This is, however, not set in stone.
Now that we have the day picked out, we need a place.
So far, we’re looking into reserving The Guzman Room @ Oakes Cafe.
Pretty good space, lots of tourneys have been played there.

… So, after we reserve the place (if we do), i’ll post on here again.
And ask of you guys to spread the word.

Again, this is not set in stone.
I’m just doing my best to get this ball rolling =]

me and a friend would be down for this on any of the days other than the 28th

hmmm. i’m down for a big tourney in santa cruz, but nov. 14th is cutting it close for me especially since it’s not set in stone yet like you said. i’ll try and see if i can make it if that date is official.

also, i’d be glad to contribute a 360 and my copy of sf4 if i do go.

let me know if you need help with anything else, man. how’s your vega and gen coming along, btw?

I finally got a solid 18-hit combo down with Gen.
Working on FADC into another MKhands, tough timing.
Vega is still my back-up main, and i’m still working on my Abel too.
I’m really trying to push for the tournament on that day,
it can probably work out so that I can come up with some money for NCR.

Thanks for the support, man! I will definitely try to have an answer by the end of this week if not earlier.
I’m still trying to reserve that room!

Keep in touch!

I got a ps3 to contribute incase we need more ps3s

Sweet, we have a good 5 systems to work with (including mine).
I’ll keep you guys updated as the days come =]

don’t know if this will effect ur tourney on the 14th or not, but just to remind u the pacman/cotto fight is that same day. just a reminder…

oh hell naw… that better be a morning tourney then if you want any filipinos to show up!

Dang, you’re right…

Lol, okay, i’ll keep that in mind, perhaps a sunday would work better.
I’ll keep you guys posted!

14th is not really good for me, I will probably be out of town that weekend. If we could get it for the 7th that would be cool. It a little more short notice but is it doable?
