Super Practice Opera at web2zone (NYC, 5/19/2007)

[Dipstick]

I doubt min f'in masters would ever post this here either, but unlike DSP he does not actually loathe MB (just Chibi) -- so here it is.

The date: Saturday, May 19, 2007
The time: 12pm to 12am
The price: $10 cover, $5 to enter MB:AC
The place: web2zone
54 Cooper Square (Cafe area)
New York, NY 10003
212-614-7300

Doors open at 12, casuals until 3. Tournament signups are from 1:30 until 2:30, and all tournaments are scheduled to start at 3 PM. Standard rules (2/3 rounds 2/3 games 3/5 for winners final, losers final, grand finals), bring your own stick or pad, we're playing on the PS2 version because we're ghetto, and don't act stupid. Also sickness and rank odor are banned so don't bring that shit.

MB will be there, even though this is meant to be an Evo East prep. event and there's no such noise at Evo (this year ). MB actually included a pot bonus last time (!!) and that offer is on the table again from web2zone, turnout dependent. MB is also the only five dollar tournament (open question: should this change?) because MB is the baller's choice and we can afford that shit. Games should be recorded (they will be if I make it), so be prepared to make an ass out of the 100 people live in attendance and a few hundred more watching on youtube. Sp00ky and Zar should be back for this, and they are going to be very fucking angry and just as hungry. Lots of other people have things to prove, from XAQ and his relationship with Arc to Chibi and his ability to think and Dippy and his willingness to exist.

Other tournament games:

-SF3: Third Strike
-Capcom vs. SNK 2
-Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo
-Marvel vs. Capcom 2
-Guilty Gear XX Slash (singles and teams)
-Virtua Fighter 5 (aka best game ever)
-Tekken 5: Dark Ressurection
-Dead or Alive 4

On top of that, lasers, traps, and lolis will all be available at the venue. No reason not to go.

Get hype,
Get hungry,
Get better,
Get shot.

Sorry it took so long to post, but ranking results from the first ranbat.  This one will be seeded using them.  I don't have much time right now so i'll post the specifics on thursday when I get back from my vacation.  Top 8 present will get seeded, with ties broken randomly.  Everyone else is random.

I'm also thinking of including a bonus as an incentive for people to step their game up.  I'm still working on the details though.

1)Xaq - 7
2)Chibi - 6
3)Damian - 5
4)Andrew - 4
5)Buri - 3
5)Chaz - 3
7)Rich - 2
7)Zaelar - 2

The following all have 1:
Jamie, Tony, Kayin, Sven, Nightroad, Finale, Desert Coffin,Kyle, 30pot, Nas, Plural, Legacy.

[Nas]

I actually saw your edit because I checked this thread in the afternoon and I checked it again just now. lol, Good shit on politicking it up dippy, and no I'm not being sarcastic haha. 

[Zaelar]

Updating on the format.

First the point system.  To start, first gets 7, second gets 6, ect., with 1 being the minimum(everyone who enters gets at least 1 point).  Also, for each tournament, there will be an incrace to the points given.  This tournament, first gets +3 and second gets +1, so first gets 10, seocnd gets 7, third gets 5, and one less for each place down.  9th and worse get one point.

The seeding is the top 4 get byes to the semi-semi-finals(must win 3 games to make it to the grand finals in winners side, will get 9th if they go out in two).  The next 4 get byes to the semi-semi-semi-finals(must win 4; 13th if out in two).  All ties will be broken randomly.  Out of everyone who doesn't get seeded, there will be 4 in winners and 4 in losers who make it to those who do get seeded.  Depending on the number of entrees, it might be run on two brackets.  The first bracket, for those who don't get seeded, will need to make top 8 to make it to the seeded bracket.

[Dipstick]

Zaeler: That seeding fucking sucks. Just seed the top players away from each other and call it a day. The last thing we need is people going 'lol rigged'.

[F9|Chibi]

Dippy, is you be bringing a tv to melty blood play with?

 

[Dipstick]

Yeah, I'm taking a TV on the NY subway for 90 minutes each way to save ? No.

[F9|Chibi]

Well peeps from Deleware are coming by bus and doing the same thing.

But I was just checking good sir.

 

[Nas]

well i could pay off the 10 dollars.. so paying an extra 10 is not the issue..and im not going to lug from a bus to a train to a subway to a bus... hence looking for an lugguge bag or sumthing so i don't look stupid/get stolen right in front of me...

[Liezzy]

Fucking managers like ignoring requests for days off.

Unless I can switch with someone for THIS SATURDAY, count me out.

Sorry guys, no scrubby Miyako this time 

P.S. I got three points. I AM WINNAR.

[Nas]

you betta go leizzy lol..

Tournament writeup:

Skipping right to the semi-semi-finals, Xaq, returning champion, defeats Dippy.  Zaelar defeats Sibladeko, and Chibi, returning runner-up, defeats Andrew.  Damian defeats Sp00ky, who wan't present at last tournament due to being busy earning second place in Texas.  In Semi-Finals, Zaelar defeats Xaq in a major upset according to last tournament's ranking, and Damian defeats Chibi, getting revenge for peacing him out at third place last tournament.  In Winner's finals, Damian defeats Zaelar.

In the losers bracket, Andrew eliminate's Sp00ky, and Dippy eliminates Sibladeko, giving them both seventh place.  Xaq eliminates Andrew, and Chibi eliminates Dippy in fifth place.  Xaq eliminates Chibi for fourth, and continues fighting his way though losers by eliminating me in third, and beats Damian in two sets to take first place.
