  • Neko Characters are allowed.

Protective adhesive tape to cover turbo functions will be provided free of charge for controllers with this feature.
  • Pausing the game, verbal (non-physical) harassment(direct or by proxy), or a false equipment call is grounds for a Yellow Card infraction.
  • Physical harassment(direct or by proxy), sabotage of equipment, intentional cheating (i.e.: turbo controls) or performing the above after a Yellow Card warning is grounds for a Red Card ejection(subject to review). Red Card ejections are permanent and constitute a ban from all Melty Blood-related activities for Evolution's duration, and will also be reported to Evolution Staff.
  • A game malfunction will result in a reset of the current match from the beginning. Score will be retained.
  • Controller Settings must be completed during character introductions and before the first round is announced(characters may move freely during the announcement phase). If it is too late, the match should be restarted unless both parties consent to proceeding.

Special Notes:

Rules:
  • Double Elimination, 2/3 matches.

  • To prevent cheating, no use of the keyboard will be allowed in-game.
  • Pausing the game, verbal (non-physical) harassment(direct or by proxy), or a false equipment call is grounds for a Yellow Card infraction.
  • Physical harassment(direct or by proxy), sabotage of equipment, intentional cheating (i.e.: turbo controls) or performing the above after a Yellow Card warning is grounds for a Red Card ejection(subject to review).

  • There are some changes from PS2 to PC version. White Len is now selectable, certain gameplay balance changes are evident, and EX Bunker Cancels now require 150% Magic Circuit instead of 100%.

well my mac lappy will be be there (with windows installed duhhh), and I'd donate it but I don't like the idea of tweaking my usb ports, cause I don't want that shit to fry.  But otherwise i'd donate it for a bit. This should be cool now I must figure out if I should practice akiha or just stick with kouma.

PC setups should also have the process set to high priority as it maintains 60FPS much, much better than normal priority.

MBAC doesnt depend on CPU cycles nearly as much as it does hard drive bandwidth. i've been testing these on as slow as 800mhz, and they do roughly the same, except when the hard drive is reading.

Just so there is no confusion, the MBAC b2 PC tournament here is the same tournament that is posted at:

http://forums.shoryuken.com/showthread.php?t=134564

The PC tournaments are one and the same.  Feel free to discuss them in any of the threads.  Donating laptops to that area also donates them to the MB tournament.

and EX Bunker Cancels now require 150% Magic Circuit instead of 100%.

To clear anything up before it confuses anyone: the 50% includes regular bara cancels as well. So if you're gonna bara cancel into a backdash because your character has a crappy 214 move, or if you're just gonna bara cancel into a non-EX move, it will still cost 50% meter.
