I know Chi-town is down for this, right? :wink: Just posting to make this as big as possible. Entry fees CAN be discussed, if need be, and more events can be added as well. I just need some feedback. :wgrin:

First Edit (12-6-06): Added 3S.
Second Edit (12-6-06):Added 3S entry price.
Third Edit (12-7-06): Added 3S pot bonus.

No 3S? Boo…

Seriously, the vast majority of 2D players in WI play 3S as their primary/secondary game. And 3S is hugely popular with out-of-towners.

Whenever we held 3S tourneys at past AC events, we got at least 8-10, and that was WI players alone. I’m sure if IL came, and random others came, we’d have a full 16 bracket.

If you wanna run 3S, Andrew, you’re more than welcome to do so. I’ll run it by Jose and I’m sure he won’t mind it at all.

Just suggest something and more than likely, we’ll run it because we want this tourney to be fucking awesome.

I’ll come for 3s. If 3s happens. That would be dope

Ha right…I would drive alllll the way up there to play the one-man Wisconsin marvel scene known as combomasher…riiiiiight.

Hahaha… Just wish I could hold down WI even if you guys did come.

Well maybe some guilty heads might want to come to this, since we seem to be pretty good at that game (not me)…and if I don’t have anything going on that weekend I don’t see why I couldn’t come. We’ll see.

Edit: Apparently George is all for this, so there you go.

Actually, Derek…

I’ll be playing in MvC2, as will Jose, maybe even Matt (Nedo) and some other peeps. We can definitely make this a large tourney and shit.

Seconded. I’m interested in coming, assuming I can get some other MN people interested as well.

Personally, I’d only be interested in GGXX/ and 3S (if you run it), but there are some other people here that might be interested in the MvC2 and T5DR.

3S WILL be there. I’ll be running it (with Jose’s blessing). I have to work out the specifics (unsure of 3S pot structure/bonuses), but 3S will be run.

Fuck, even if it falls through (if prizes aren’t sufficient), there will be hella casuals, with more back at my crib (live 10minutes away from arcade).

3s would be awesome. Andrew, you should throw down prize money since you got that nice job :lol:

I updated the first post. I added 3S. So it will be there for sure. I’ll keep updating this.

HYPE IT UP!!!

RAMEN STYLE!!!

I think you mean SHIN RAMYUN STYLE!!! but I’ll let it slide this time nappy. As far as making the tourney, we’ll see how it goes once I know what will be going down with my job situation come then. DUN DUN DUN DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN!!!

Shawn, dunno what’s going on for me that weekend for me either, but maybe we could car pool.

Ermmm that’s the weekend of my gf’s b-day so it’s looking grim :stuck_out_tongue: She has family in WI though, haha.

To clarify for the 3S heads -

3S tourney = PS2. Not 3S arcade.

There will be a $6-8 entry fee (will be discussed at tourney), and a $50 pot bonus paid to the winner only (regardless of out of state status). This $50 pot bonus is in place of Jose’s $100 out of state bonus.

Let me repeat. The $50 any-state winner bonus replaces the $100 out-of-state bonus

The reason I wanted to give the winner the $50 bonue is because of the expected lower turnout than Tekken 5:DR. It’s all up to the 3S players who do come. Spread the $50 through the top 3 places, or winner get the $50 bonus to himself. Whatever.

Stefan is more than enough reason to come to this…:wgrin: !!!
But OMG if Big Mike comes…hell I’ll even enter 3S myself!!!

Good times to come!!!

If I can get a ride with one of my fellow Chicagoans and my money is right, I should be there for 3S. :tup:

Are these dates and times set in stone? Let me know so I can post flyers in downtown madison.

I’ll probably be there.

Fear powerbomb on wakeup.

Fear it.

holy shit, you’re alive. what’s the good word?
