Of course, a tournament this big will have it’s negatives but I will try to minimize this to the best of our abilities.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.
If you can help out in anyway, please send me a message.

GET HYPE!!!

NeoRussell

nice looking forward to this tourney… get hype tell all your friends!!

Directions on how to get there by TTC? Just edit that in your post.

Nagata: Sticky for thread please.

Brett: I don’t know the bus number that goes north of Dupont. Can you help with that?

NeoRussell

The other two organizers for SSFIV would be me and Robbie, but I think Rob was still deciding.

I can only make it out for 2/3 of the days most likely, so i’m still deciding on fri or sunday.

EDIT: This is the T series 10th anniversary, not 11th.

Russel: will there be room for setups for casuals in other games, e.g. MBAA / TvC / MvC2 / etc.?

Bill: Not on Friday and Saturday. Sunday, there should be space.

NeoRussell

Does this include the side tournaments?

If so you’ve already killed them.

This was discussed in an older thread, I think the verdict was that if a game’s community can’t support itself on a $10 entry then the game should not be run.

They’re asking for an addition $10 for EVERY tourney you enter.

So if you enter 3 tourneys, you pay the venue fee 3X on top of pot fees.

Well that seems really odd. So what you’re seeing is that for example, entering just for SSFIV would cost $30?

Hopefully there’s some kind of mistake here.

No they aren’t.

“Participation Fee: $10
-There will be no Door Fee this time around. If you do want to compete in a tournament, you need to pay the Participation Fee. If you are playing multiple games, Registration table will have a copy of who paid the participation fee. Just so you don’t forget to pay or end up paying twice.”

Key sentence closes out the paragraph. This is just so people can spectate without paying for a venue fee and those who are going to be in the tournaments would be paying as usual.

I’ll confirm about the fees ok. I’m currently speaking to Vaughn and Dice about what’s the best solution. For now, i put the Fees in Pending Status.

NeoRussell

team should be 30$ for super

Yeah you can put me down as helping to organize SF, more so of a utility man than main organizer though as I may be ride constrained that day coming from Waterloo and all. Either way though, I’ll help out anyway I can and will be able to provide more info as to when I will be there (such as before set-up help etc.) as the day comes closer.

Changes in the Fees section:
-----
FEES
-----

There will be a door fee to enter the event. You will need to pay $5 per day that you are in T11. There will be enough casual stations for Spectators.

Door Fee: $5 per day

Tournament Fee: $10 per tournament you enter


Heero: $5 per person is usually the standard price for Team Tournaments. Atleast from what I know. We’ll see how people react from your statement ok. I’ll leave it at $5 for now.

NeoRussell

Will JS Master become the best Canadian player 2 years in a row??? Find out at T11!!!

On the other hand, i also strongly believe team tournament should be $30/team for SSF4, or else 2nd and 3rd place winners will barely receive anything in the end. $10/head for team tournament has also been the entry fee for the last several local tournaments in Ontario/Montreal. And no its not becuz i want more money, just saying it’ll bring more hype and more motivation for ppl to play harder even for that 2nd & 3rd place

another small concern is that it says registration starts at 6pm, while tournament starts at 7pm on fri… i assume this means we have to do brackets/registration within an hr??

PS. I would like to bet on Neo Russel over anyone in Canada for any amount of money in Tekken 6

Since there is no marvel we’re running a 5on5 right?

I’d bet on Lawrence over Russell.

Scumbag: On Sunday if everything is good with time.

Disgruntled: He’s failed 3 times. The power of Kuma is just too much for his girlish characters.
