The NorCal Downtown Throwdown
There will be a Super Street Fighter IV tournament coming up on May 16. We wanted to advertise this early because we wanted it to be a big event.
The tournament will be for CASH PRIZES and the pot will be split up 70%, 20%, 10%. The entry fee will be 10 dollars 2 of which will go towards future tournaments. Not only will there be a tournament but also an Independent Capcom Trade Show, where there will be: Comics/Manga, Video Games, Wall Scrolls, Controllers, Arcade Sticks and Parts. Bottled water will be provided.
The address for the Venue is.
Lodi Grapevine Comics
9 West Pine St
Lodi Ca
95240
And will be provided by Alan Chan.
We will also be setting up a pay pal method to pay ahead of time but will have open enrollment the day of the tournament. The tournament will be played on the XBOX 360. We can provide standard XBOX controllers but you will be able to bring any of your own controllers/sticks. There will be a losers and winners bracket double elimination. Enrollment starts at 11am and ends at 1 pm. The tournament starts at 2pm to give players time to relax have casuals and eat lunch.
Parking is free, there is a free parking garage around the block on Elm and Pine not sure if there is an address but if there is one I will update the post. If there is a large turn out then this will be a monthly event and if anyone can help get a live stream please leave a comment or for any other questions contact.
Randal Weber @ 209-369-1405 Tuesday through Sunday from 10 am - 7 pm, or for quick question you can send a message to me or codallenschmidt on the SRK forums.
Thank you, and lets get some more hype in NorCal.
We do want to get a head count so we can bring the proper amount of setups so if you could contact me or randy that would be nice or post on this forum.
DO TO THE SHEER AMOUNT OF VIEWS, FEEDBACK, AND DEMAND WE WILL BE CHANGING THE SYSTEM TO XBOX
I wanted to bump this thread and also was wondering why no one has responded or even seemed interested in the post. I know that people are hungry for events like this but i am kind of wondering if there was something i did wrong in the post. Or if anyone had friendly advice.
Do you have local players in Lodi that post on SRK? If not, that might be one reason. Also, I noticed that you joined relatively recently. Usually, people on forums respond more to people that they know. Even if you’re known, people often read and don’t post. Just keep that in mind. It doesn’t look like you did anything wrong.
77 views…no worries man people are scopin this out =]
Oh yea dont trip yo once it gets around the date time people will be swarmin!
Don’t worry about people not posting, they look, and they set aside time to come. Hell, I’ll be there, since I live in Stockton.
Try word of mouth also, and local posting/Flyers. I’m sure a lot of people from Stockton are going to show up, lol I was told about the tourney by word, I’m there. :woot:

Sup Jacob. This Daryl and I don’t mind giving a helping hand with your tournament. I was thinking about throwing my own tournament that weekend, but I don’t mind collaborating with you guys to make this huge.

Hello everyone,
I’ll be one of the main interfaces regarding the tournament. I operate one of the local gameshops that’s collaborating to make this event possible. We just got tons of goodies from Schmidtinurface that will be available that day, as well as many other odds and ends. Pre-registration will be opening in April as well as a site detailing what the venue will include.
Any questions, comments or general feedback can be addressed to me.
This event is by the fans, for the fans so with your help we hope to make this a huge success!
I’ll update with more details as we get closer to day 0.
Hey guys, I’d like to chime in with some suggestions for organizing events in the future.
At the top of the page there’s a “Tournament Organizer” thread to post your event date, and it will then be added to the first post for other TO’s to see which dates are available. Also, the calander link at the top of just about every SRK page does the same thing. If you post in these two areas in addition to making your own thread, more people will see your event and it will make it easier for other TO’s to see that you have already claimed the date.
Anyway, good luck with the event!
alright thanks for the heads up
Bumping the topic, get hype for a tournament
Oh wow, I was really surprised to see something going down in Lodi! I’m still pretty new to the SFIV scene, so hopefully this can get me some better experience. I can’t wait!
