lol.

Pre-TX? Isn’t this after TX?

i’m going to try my hardest to go there.

The Event is August 1st, TX is August 7-9.

pay top 2 and give out 2 tvs

Should reconsider the glasses.

That is why the Prizes are still awaiting Final confirmation. However most of those details are locked in. Keep checking and the final update will come soon.

yea, glasses as second prize is kinda lame.

that sentence may or may not need the word “kinda”.

Apparently the glasses they are providing are fairly expensive ie. I was told $150 range.

how about $150 as 2nd prize

Post has been updated and the glasses are now third prize.

Moshtiba IMO.

sigh I could have used a new tv. Good luck to everybody who shows up

does the TV lag?
if it does, i’ll come in 2nd place on purposely

No you won’t you’ll sell it or use it for cable TV.

This thread is glitchy for me, I dislike it.

This is the TV and its specs http://www.toshiba.ca/gaming/regza.html

Hey Guys!

For those who don’t know. Drekken is my brother in arms for all the POWNZ tournaments. He provides the setups and I run the show day of. This man works hard to bring prizes like this to you guys.

This guy deserves a huge round of applause at this tournament.

Drekken has a beast VEGA YEYE. For real the tv on game mode has 5ms of lag which is better than 8ms some claim this model is lagless so good shit drekken.
