West Coast Warzone 3 - Orange, CA - Jan 14-16, 2011

Will there be anyone on site for performing dual mod service? I’m thinking about going but would mainly go for this if I knew I could get my stick dual modded. If anyone is offering this service, please post up. Thanks!

^Thanks boss. Much appreciated!

Man still tryna get out here!!!

I need to book rooms!

Kai, sent you an email a few days ago. Mr. John Rog, can you PM me your email addy so I can send you one as well? Thx.

I need to get on that too MarkMan!

Hey guys,
anyone driving up from San Diego and willing to carpool?
will help pay for gas of course! thanks!

Greetings from Japan! I apologize about lack of updates/communication for those who have PM’d me. I finally found a wifi that I’m hijacking from some neighborhood grocery store =]

I finally had a chance to get my hands on AE in Kyoto’s Namco Wonder Tower. Funny that with all the machines in SoCal, I played AE for the first time in Japan. I won 27 of the 30 games I played =] There was a Japanese Akuma player who said he was looking forward to watching WCW3 on ustream. I was quite surprised that there are folks in Japan who watch the tourney! Everyone participating please make sure you put on a good show for our friends in the land of the rising sun! I was apparently in the arcade that Tokido frequents as the guy also told me that it was where Tokido plays regularly and he was third on the BP rankings list for the machines there, behind 2 Yun players. It was much fun. Balrog felt the same more or less.

It didn’t really seem like it was a overwhelming positive response anyhow so it looks like we will be sticking to Dreamcast.

A PM has been sent MarkMan! Happy holidays!!

It would be appreciated!

Someone help this man get to WCW3 =]

Rooms are still available at the Double Tree until the 6th so book your rooms today!

I’m on my way to Nagano to snowboard where they had the winter Olympics!

I hope you are all having a safe and wonderful holidays!

PS - Japanese girls…I found them to be absolutely amazing. I didn’t get all the hype before. Now I do. I need to find me an Aya or a Misaka =] BBL

Wanted to book a room but couldn’t get the rate. Is there something I didn’t do (I clicked the link and everything)

This is even less appealing than on DC.

I see what you are trying to do and I fully appreciate trying to cater to the players. The problem, as I see it, is you are missing a whole generation of potential attendees by having Marvel on the DC; you are focusing on a very specific niche of players.

Not only does it eliminate an entire group of players that have only ever played it on Xbox 360/PS3 but also a group of players that have moved away from the DC and old sticks to play on the newer consoles and sticks.

I am not a fan of progress for the sake of progress but I think that it is limiting in this case.

Of course, this is just an opinion and I am not saying that “this is the way it is” but I would like to offer up a viewpoint.

im sorry but how does playing a game on a system that is arcade perfect a bad thing. and newer consoles newer sticks… with modding sticks the way people do now the stick argument is kinda lame imo. anyone who plays the game knows there is something off about both systems in marvel (ie timing and other quarks) if it wont be on arcade sticking to the arcade perfect port is overall better.

As long as Marvel is on DC, can there be the version that was played at SCR? or would that be a no no?

While I understand the point you’re trying to make JediRobb, as much as we’d like to switch over to PS3 or Xbox MvC, when offered the choice of alienating either New School or Old School, I’m going to have to say that I’m going to stick with whoever is better at playing the game.

Unfortunately, I doubt you’ll find any player willing to MM anything over $10 on Marvel on New Gen consoles. Add in the fact that Marvel needs to be played on American sticks, who outside of Valle and Choi pretty much nobody owns for New Gen consoles. We decided to put Marvel in this year as a last hurrah to the greats. I think it’d be a little disrespectful to the guys who have dedicated themselves and their money to this game by trying to move them onto a different platform.

While it’s true that there might be some crazy New Gen Marvel warriors out there, I don’t think any of them can put on as good of a show as the OG players that we’re going to see at WCW3. Is there a possibility of more registrants / aka more money by going New Gen? No doubt. But at the risk of endangering REAL Marvel players from entering? Not worth it.

Believe me though, those players that you’re talking about moving onto New Gen MvC2 are no different then I am with SF4. They are just conforming to the times. When it comes down to being serious, nothing can ever beat what you remember as the original.

I have no idea if it was some kind of special version at SCR. If you’re talking about custom color palettes and background music, that’s pretty much how all DC versions are.

Platapus

I’d recommend posting in the San Diego thread, or the Box Arena thread. Those guys are pretty good at helping players out.

Let me take this time to just remind you again that I will be enforcing the AFTERHOURS rules. No sneaky sneaky here. Book a room so you won’t be stuck lugging around a monitor and xbox around the hotel!

John you will have to tell me about your little Kyoto trip at WCW. I was over there a few years ago and the trip was just way too short

@Kai

Well, the reason I was asking was I remember during SCR, Dogface mentioned something about Copyright infringement. Maybe thats only for stream broadcast though.

Just registered, tickets already purchased. Bout to represent H-town!

We ended up streaming MvC2 last year also. In the case that an issue like that is brought forth, we’ll gladly oblige. Until then, it’s just Mahvel.

Looking through the participants, it seems like we have quite a few out of towners coming in to participate in this tournament. So far it’s record breaking as far as WCW, but I want to thank you guys for spending the money and the time to come and check us out. Hopefully we’ll be able to show you why our tournament is considered one of the best among players.

John and I have also developed a system that we believe will allow us to blast through the tournament with minimal wasted time. WCW3 is a test, but I’m sure it will be picked up in no time.

I think top 8 winners should be given Vip passes to the after hours lol

Just registered cant wait to be there.

Wow this is coming from someone who pays the tournament finalist 12years later :looney:
