EDIT: Don't remember if this was covered, but if you're coming and have converters, bring them. If you have any spare power strips you wouldn't mind bringing, bring them. I don't want to end up without enough equipment to handle the amount of people/laptops available :(

I'll see about bringing a laptop, but I'm PRETTY sure I can't manage it. I can def bring the speakers though

i hope cf doesn't get sf4 by next saturday, otherwise we can forget about having casuals, lol
From what I heard from #arcana it'll be there by Tuesday.

The best we can hope for is that its put up at the front; or at least anywhere that isnt where we casual.  :V

Could you add this to the first post (if it doesnt expire). THE GAZEBO is the gray box at the northern most part of the park (bayard & mulberry).


I have THE GAZEBO reserved from 3pm-8pm. I'm thinking about using an hr of that time for casuals (3pm-4pm). If we can get 2 more laptops that meet the requirements that Zaelar has specified, then it should be no problem to have the tournament completed by 8pm.

Expect me to be at CF by 1pm and we can try to set up some casuals before parting to the HYPE MACHINES. At about 2:30pm well will break out and head to the park (by the vendors) to discuss rules and collect venue and tournament entry fees. (Since i chose not to state that fees will be collected when I applied for the reservation we will have to keep this on the low :x ).

This will be a MELTY BLOOD tournament (with a small Akatsuki Blitzkampf event on the side being run by Rithli[?]) so please dont assume that you will be running any random game tourneys/casuals while at THE GAZEBO. As the holder of the permit/reservation I will have to keep an eye on pretty much everything around me and having multiple stations scattered around the area will be distracting for me. Lets just try to focus on the two main games and if we have time for the non-main games after then whatever. And besides, the majority of you will be hanging out together at either a hotel or sp00kys afterwards to settle scores in random fighters.

Remember you MUST keep the area clean (says so on the permit) and try to keep profanities downnn (out of respect to the proprietors who loaned us the area). Also, there may actually be some columnists/journalists present- be ready to REPRESENT USMB and the fighting gaming culture (think of some possible q&a's so you dont look stupid lol but hey, thats on you.)

Speakers
Powerstrips
Laptops
Chairs
(Small) Tables

If you guys bring any of the above it would be appreciated.


ABK EVENT
Since Rithli will be pressed for time, I suggested to him running a condensed event for Akatsuki Blitzkampf: One game (2/3rds), Double elim (TWOO Eliminations), TWOO $$.

Lastly, Please cross post this thread in any other gaming sites that you think may take interest and post that info here. See you mo'fos in FIVE DAYS.

zar are you even aware that your attitude is what drove people off in the first place. i think zar's attitude is worse than all of that. cause neither of you guys mean anything. but zar can poison shit around him. zar's the one that gets personal online and does realtalk that's out of line.

Ok according to a few folks in #Arcana, Henry is actually setting up SF4 right now.

And I mean right now.

This pretty much guarantees the arcade will absolutely SWAMPED AS FUCK this weekend, so it's a fair warning as to whether or not people will get casuals going at CF, especially considering we don't know where SF4 is being set up at the moment.

Saiyd, be forewarned man.

So CF has SF4, which means casuals at CF will probably not happen. I think it's best we gather people at CF first then head over to the vending machines for casuals before we actually head up to the gaezbo.

Please spread the word on the matter.

goddamn, EC's dedication makes me want to cry sometimes (man-tears/hype-tears - you choose). THIS is the definition of a fucking community. Dat dedication, dat determination, dat struggle, dat love, dat HYPE. Man, muhfuckaz better show up to this. Too damn hype right herrr.

Anyway, time for my two cents:

Climbing 'the' stairs

Sign ups @ 2pm-3pm

Where: Columbus Park

How: $5 entry *chibi, could you include this on half of the copies and the other half just omit the entry amount*

That's some good stuff there, Chibi. Seriously. Niggas be putting HEART into it. And speaking of which - RITHLI, if youre reading this, you should bring some of those beast ABK flyers you created as well and edit in the info for the side event.

woah, single game matches?!

dude, push for 2/3 games all the way through and 3/5 just for GF's. give the travelers their money's worth and let them get in more games. we probably wont see this kind of (foreign) attendance again for a while (no anti-hype).  :prinny:

Some of you people need to man up and go home after this event if you are able to.

Re-do~

Notes: We (Zaelar, myself, Zar, maybe Spooky) will be at Chinatown Fair around Noon. We will stay there for an hour and then head over to the HYPE MACHINES (aka vending machines) where we will be running casuals until 2:30 pm. Then we'll pack up and head on over to the GAZEBO.

SIGNS UP WILL RUN FROM 3-4pm, and ARE $5. Please note I WILL BE TAKING SIGN UPS AND MONEY THE ENTIRE DAY UNTIL 4PM. NO MONEY WILL BE TAKEN AT THE GAZEBO, it's seen as gambling..

IF YOU DO NOT SIGN UP BEFORE 4PM, AND YOU COME IN WHILE THE TOURNAMENT IS STARTING OR HAS ALREADY GOTTEN UNDERWAY YOU ARE NOT GETTING IN, NO MATTER WHERE YOU CAME FROM
. Noone cares if you want to masturbate all over SF4 and then realized you got distracted, absolutely zero tolerance on the matter.

It's advised that you eat sometime before 4PM. If you want to eat during the tournament, wait until you're not playing and not on deck, and even then its regulated to a snack. We've only got 5 hours to work with in the gazebo, so PLEASE DONT GO ANYWHERE guys.

I know that sounds like a bunch of strict crap, but it's needed. You'll get hype and enjoy it once we start rolling.

ok, need to know who the is donating laptops for this

So far we got:

Zaelar (default laptop)
Kirby
Sibladeko
(Possibly) Baod, Sphyra(?)

Folks please remember:
Note from Zaelar

If someone can provide a second setup I'll cover your entree fee.  Setup must have correct aspect ratio, 2 usb ports, and no slowdown.  A third may be used if turnout is large enough.  Excess setups may be brought for casuals, but won't get free entree.
Players may not demand a setup to use if there is more than one available.  If you have concerns about a setup being playable for tournament matches tell me asap and I will test it personally along with input from other players.


MB on your laptop must run at 59-60fps. NO EXCEPTIONS (drops to 58fps is significant enough to hinder performance). Also I will ask for Zaelar's assistance to assist you on setting up a shortcut folder for the reps on your desktop for quick access to temprep folders (for the asses that 'forget' to save reps).

VERY IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT THE TOURNAMENT

Timing is of the essence. Since we are attempting to complete this event in roughly 4 hrs, I must ask cooperation from ALL ENTRIES.

1) If you're NOT ELIMINATED from the tourney (you DID NOT lose twice), you are to remain on gazebo grounds for you next match

2) Bathrooms are located DIRECTLY BELOW the gazebo and should you have to make that trip, it would be in your best interests to notify Zaelar (or myself if Zaelar is engaged in gameplay) so you dont get dq'd.

3) 2 MIN WARNING!! your name will be called for you to arrive ON DECK. This means you will be waiting at a station which is currently holding a match. When that match you finishes, you will then step up to the station for your matches. Once on deck, you are not allowed to leave for any reason in which the result will be disqualification. Not being present on deck in the two min time frame will result in dq/match forfeit. Your best bet is to just STICK AROUND.

4) People need to seriously EAT A BIG ASS MEAL before the start of the event. If you arrive in Chinatown early, I suggest your check out the area to get a good idea of what stores you can run to for a snack after you finish your match.

5) First match will take place at 4pm on the dot. Brackets will be locked at that point and no further entries will be admitted. People ON DECK will be expected to be at the station they were assigned to.


Well, thats all i have to say about that. Rules will be reiterated at the briefing by the vending machines at 2:30pm and Spooky the Official Gazebo Nazi will be there to enforce them. Zaelar the Executioner will take axe-tion (get it?!) when the tourney begins if need be. Chibi the Jester will be taking your names & monies (and he'll do a jig for you if you ask nicely :prinny:)

STAY

MAZA

FAKKY
 
HAIIIIPU!!!

Yo, I'm down for hoteling it but from the looks of things a lot of spots near or in chinatown are asking for 400 a night >o<. What's up w/ that trash motel in Chinatown that you said chilled at for a night. You know, the one where they gave you a haystack to sleep on lol.
