NOTE: Matches Between a PS3 and 360 Players will likely be played on whatever Console is available. There should be enough sticks all around to share, I doubt it will be hard to adapt to. If possible, we may split matches between consoles. This is still pending.
Information:This will be our 10th Tourney/Gathering. This will be our FIRST SF4 Console tourney, hosted by Russel. We hope to be able to promote both games as well as allowing players to be exposed to both games on a competitive level. We should be able to have at least TWO TVS devoted to EACH GAME. It would be advised that you bring your own Stick (PS2/PS3/360). We will likely have adapters on hand. Please contact me or Russel for more info.
PADS/Sticks for those who are bringing their own
LABEL Your Controller!!
CHARGE YOUR Controller!!
Remember to ASSIGN/UNASSIGN between Matches
Remember to Set your Buttons
Do not leave the Room with a Pad unless its your own (but we may need to share)!!
VENUE
Tables Chairs will be available. There is also a bathroom right next to the Rec Room so ask me for the key.
Since it is an apartment Building we can make noise but we need to avoid excess noise as to not disturb Tenants
To get in the Front door either call me beforehand (416-871-3665) or Russel (###-####), or it may already be open. But try to call before so we know you’re coming. Knock on the Rec Room door before entering
During casuals as the numbers increase, lets have BOTH players give up the controller so everyone has a chance to warm up and get in there zone
i don’t think i’ll be able to make it to this one … i want a break from SF4 … i need to go boarding as much as i can before the end of the month before my season tix at horseshoe expire.
Yes these are three things that need to be discussed/debated.
360 vs PS3 - This one basically goes to the 360 since more Sticks are available I believe. The main option for PS3 players is to use a PS2 stick and we will have adapters.
$5 vs 10$ - I like to go with $5 to increase turnout. But I do know many love the $10 Fee for bigger PAY OUT. This one is up to you guys (10 Dollars will allow prize for 3rd place).
Lastly I would also like to know do you guys play BEST OF 3 Rounds & Best of 3 Matches (FT2 2 Rounds) or Best of 5 Rounds & Best of 3 Matches. (FT2 3 Rounds).
Please let me know what the best option is. We will likely have 1 360 and PS3 for SF4. IF anyone can help out with Sticks, Systems or TVs that would be great. We should be able to get have 3 TVs at the least and 3 Systems. I will contact more people to confirm everything.
Nagata: If you can come for a bit to check out the venue, that would be great. It really is a big enough place to hold tournaments. Can you also Sticky?
Anyone: You guys can PM me if you need directions. The venue is completely Subway-able. Just get off at Sherbourne station and walk 2 minutes. It cannot be easier than that. I’ll give you my cell if needed.
Dino: I’ll also talk to people that plays in Ghetty to try to get them to come. I have a few friends that will come for this. They need tourny exposure to be better. Change the title to something cool. Like “Road to Evo” T.O. Tournament or “Battle for Supremacy” SFIV Tournament.
I doubt I’d be able to come down. I have plans in Vaughan that night and I don’t think I want to burn the gas on a trip from Hamilton -> Toronto -> Hamilton (get ready and change) -> Vaughan -> Hamilton. It’s just burning an entire tank of gas when it’s all said and done. Hopefully we can discuss a future date together and I’ll be happy to do whatever I can to help out.
Nagate: Cool, maybe next time. I also think that we should have a thread dedicated to SFIV discussion in Canada. I want to talk SFIV with everyone and not just Toronto. I say this to you because I want the GodFather to start the thread.
Also, you can post this link in there:

russell, i watched like 2 minutes of ur vega guide (working atm) and its great. but maybe you should at least use SF notations instead of tekken notations lol. df+4? whats 4?! lol. to GG, thats like. df+back, and to sf, thats just a number lol.
R u planning to make something like this for BB like u mentioned? pretty impressive.
Well right now I think we are going to go with PS3. It seems there will likely be more PS2 Sticks+Adapter…
I personally use pad, and the only stick I have access to I believe has a crappy sm.p
Does anyone have a 360-PS3 adapter?! That will likely be the one component will need if people have 360 sticks.
ALSO OF NOTE is there any INPUT LAG associated with LCD tvs and SF4. I know for SC4 some setups will give you a very small lag, but it is sometimes unavoidable. PLMK what the situation is regarding LCD’s and Lag, I will bring my HDTV but we may likely use it for soul cal.
Dino: Decide on the entry fee. If this is just a game learning tournament then $5 is fine. If therer are many top tiers coming, then $10. I don’t think I can post a flyer in ghetty to hold a tournament somewhere.
