The South Texas Open
July 31st, 2010

-thread in construction-

Without hosting a fighting tournament since Battle at the Border 3 (11/09), NE1 LAN CNTR is back and presents the first annual South Texas Open. We are hoping to spark a new level and perception of fighting game tournaments for the Rio Grande Valley and Texas. We will be going all out for this one by having all kinds of media coverage, bringing back old classics, and throwing down a $500 guaranteed pot for Super Street Fighter IV Singles. Also, this is the Valley’s first exclusive fighting game tournament in a long while. Our last events over the years have been stuck with the Smash series, Halo, DDR or Madden. Finally we have the place all to ourselves…so let’s make this event one to remember!

PAYOUTS [LISTEN UP]
Super Street Fighter 4
will have a guaranteed pot of $500. If entrants hit 51+ the pot will increase to $600. Whether five people show up or fifty people show up the gurantee stands at $500 with the possibility of increasing to $600 if more than 50 entrants attend. Therefore, the guarantted splits for the pot are as follows:

If 50 or less:
1st: $350 (70%)
2nd: $100 (20%)
3rd: $50 (10%)

If 51 or more:
1st: $420 (70%)
2nd: $120 (20%)
3rd: $60 (10%)

These are all guaranteed. NE1 LAN CNTR has hosted FPS events with $500 guaranteed pots in the past and have payed out regardless of attendance. Their credibility is impeccable for the $500 being there. Don’t miss out.

To clarify further…The Super Street Fighter 4 entry fees go directly to the house. The pot guarantee stands alone and does not include the entry fees. If there are any questions or concerns regarding this PLEASE post up in a respectable manner and I will address every question ASAP.

As for all of the other events the payouts will be as follows…

If 8 or more entrants:
1st: 70%
2nd: 20%
3rd: 10%

If less than 8 entrants:
1st: 80%
2nd: 20%

[All events with less than 8 entrants can have the payout negotiated if the players unanimously agree of a specific pot distribution. Super Street Fighter IV pot is non-negotiable and stands as it is]

The Tournament Staff will consist of:
DanEG
RocketGruntMark
Hamm
DemonJim

and friends :]

[media=youtube]-6lCfi6WoTw&feature=related[/media]

im up for SSF4 and HDR… looking for teammates for SSF4 teams :wink:

GET HYPE!!!

I am hAMpy to be part of this

time to post up the info to other cities.

man i wish there was a pot for marvel and do you think we should have a vote on what system marvel should be on, cuz from what i heard last time was alot of complaints about it being on ps3 and people taking so damn long, but thats my opinion though

let there be a vote for the marvel.

most people have TE’s and would rather play on that since DC sticks are hard to come by now a days.
and the issues with dreamcast on the blue screems ETC

also ps3 is the standard for this years evo.

mindless well play it no?

Being as I was in the frontlines when that problem happened I can tell you that it wasn’t cause we were playing on PS3 it was because the tv’s sucked for marvel. They handled the other games ok but not marvel.

Seriously quick fix to this just hook up the ps3s to a CRT and it’s all good. CRT will obviously be available seeing as TvC and the PS2 games can’t run on a HD tv without serious lag.

DanEG: Check your PMs.

-DJ-

Very nice. I’ll totally be there. I’ll also see what I can do about getting it some coverage in The Monitor/Festiva.

well mas just recently got back into business so, it shouldnt be hard to get them now :p, im gonna place an order next week for mine actually, and id go with dreamcast as a vote since its the real way to play it, and im willing to bring mine to this tourney since its still good in shape, and dont forget marvel wouldnt be in evo if it werent for those meddling kids lols, but w/e right, like you said mindless we’ll play it since its MAHVEEL BAYBEE!!

Attending.

is there going to be some BYOC setups?? if so if anyone is interested and can bring some KOF games, im down for some games and even MMs =)

Im in for Ssf4 singles/teams & HDR… What do u think about making the Ssf4 team tourney 3v3? i say yes to that

i challenge you to some games of KoF XI

this sounds really fun
I’ll go since I haven’t seen the valley peeps in a while
can’t confirm a 100% cause its right after EVO, and thats always expensive :rofl:
