T8: Games/Rules Discussion

[Nagata_Lock_II]

I think it’s mostly likely Kevin is gonna show up. Are you sure the seeds amongst the players?

If Kevin runs ST this year I want to see the brackets. The last two years I entered Super Turbo I ran into ridiculous brackets (did I play Kevin 1st round back to back years?) and I’m sick of it.

And I’m sure equipment will get lost/stolen easily. Checkout system sounds good but I’d prefer that my HRAPs only be used for games that I play so I can monitor them myself more easily.

Thanks for the vote of confidence.
Btw the check-out system would be for the generous people who have no problem lending out equipment to the entire tournament or specific areas.
So don’t worry, you can buttclench those sticks of yours no problem.

edit:
Ppl who are donating:
Please don’t think we don’t care about your belongings. Its your equipment and if you prefer it to be used on certain things, thats your decision. Remember, we’re all in this together, cover each other’s ass and we can get though the negativity.

EDIT: As for ggxx
I say we hold a slash and a AC tourny. I know some Americans who are coming down just to play everyone in slash and I really don’t want them to come down only to be discouraged.

That sounds good but I’m just wondering which version you are going to have as part of the main attraction and which one will be the side tournament?

[ScithDeath]

I’ll be able to supply the following if needed:
Alpha Anthology
CvS2
Slash
Anniversary Collection
MB:AC

This will be my first “T tourney”. Has the venue been set?

[System_1]

I’m not joking or anything but…

is there anyway at all that someone can use a keyboard to play the games they’re entering in for the tournament? Like some sorta adapter or something for a keyboard.

[System_1]

[AlterGenesis]

[DarkGiygas]

[Clear_Sky]

If you noticed, I also said we’d be using Original Settings.

Yeah your right. Good stuff. :wonder:

[System_1]

i dont mind nba 2k7…nets > any team

[ScithDeath]

Since people are just throwing games out there for T8. How about some Narutemate Heroes 3?

[noodleman]

umm, for time constrants, the organizers should just pick N number of games and that be it. Like in T7 people can do DS “side tournies” on their own free time.

[YellowS4]

Hence mvc, 3s, AC, MB and 2k7/ W11.

[System_1]

um…gundam seed destiny ?

[ZeroFalcon]

ggxx button mapping allowed on pads =)

[System_1]

i’ll help run AC and Slash, button mapping is allowed. I can bring a ps2 and sticks and i might be able to bring a tv, possibly 2 i’ll msg stephen when it’s for sure.

[noodleman]

Hence mvc, 3s, AC, MB and 2k7/ W11.

fuck you. unless AC stands for Awesome CvS2.

[Shiro_420]

I’ll run ST.

Also, I have an argument for shiro for XvSF.

The fact of the matter is that XvSF is a game that is currently mostly played online, with people using a variety of control setups from keyboards, to pads, to sticks. The problem is that with it being online, people play the majority of the time on their own terms. Poeta told me he was going to come to T8 with keyboard in hand and was hoping to beat down everybody, more or less. I know for a fact that playing on keyboard, he uses 3p and 3k as a main part of his game, and if that’s what it takes for him to execute on a keyboard the way he does, then I’m fine with it.

“Sorry if any one had their hopes up for using 3p 3k, but i just cant see it being on the same plane feild if peeps are using 3p 3k in a game that is rediculasly easier with them.”

Ignoring the fact that you said ‘plane’ instead of ‘playing’, you claim the game is rediculously easier with these buttons being set. The problem is not about how much easier the game is, but how much harder the game is without the setup to players who use them daily. The competition that XvSF will drag in will be people who play it online and most likely use these buttons. Just because you don’t use the macros (who knows… I’m just assuming no one is stupid enough to set a rule that would cut down their own execution), is no reason to make this ruling.

People train online in this game using these controls. To me it seems almost stupid to force them to play without them. If you want it to be a true measure of skill you’re going to give people the setup that they’re used to on the controller they’re used to, this is the whole point of a console tournament… to even out the playing field by cutting out all the excuses about controls. And due to the fact that this game is mainly played online without any restrictions on controls, the tournament for the game should consider this as well.

BTW, I said I’ll run ST.

Hey if you want to run a xvsf tourney with 3p 3k go right ahead. But the majority of players in Canada do NOT play xvsf competively online. Also 3k 3p = easy mode. Its a hell of alot diffrent than mvc2.

Also No one is saying you can’t bring / use keyboards or controllers but there wont be any 3p 3k in the xvsf tourney.

For what I can bring to the tourney. Well I will be luggin 2 psx converters and 5-6 sticks for use. Also I will be bring a pc but I wont have a monitor (help?)

[Crayz_Penguin]

3p 3k in xvsf dont matter to me, all i gotta do is hold up-forward and mash HP HK with sabretooth
best game ever
ps. i dont play the game
