---

If you are interested in attending and/or entering any of the tournaments, feel free to post with your intentions. If theres anything you'd like to ask regarding the tournament, or if theres anything you'd like to suggest/see at this LU, don't hold back.

Depending on how long the tourneys run, Free Play may be on for an amount of time after the tournaments have ended. There are food spots within the area, and directions to the arcade will be posted up soon. The results of this event will be taken and scored to start off this year's ranbat scoring. I have two cameras for recording tournaments, but I will need many more if I want to get everything completed recorded.

The second Lolifest in most likely a series of monthly tournaments, I'm striving to make the tournament much better with every month. Last LU, things didn't start on time, and confusion as to who was running brackets made tourneys drag on. I am learning from my mistakes, and I hope to fix the things necessary to make this second LU even more enjoyable.

The newer games being added to the line-up is Marvel vs. Capcom 2, SC3, and GGAC. SC3 is tentative right now because I'm not sure what the turnout would be for it. GGAC is also tentative because at the time of the first Lolifest, the PS2 cabinet was not available for usage. In order to make sure that these games can be run, I need to get an estimate on how many heads would show up for SC3. I would also need to make sure the PS2 cabinet will be available for usage at the time of LU2.

Date may be changed if random winter weather shows it's face / any other major tournaments run the same weekend. I hope for a great turnout this time around, and don't hesitate to tell those who might be interested about this event!

TGA charges $20 and does free play all day, and it's 400 times the trouble to get to.

You should just charge $10-$20 entry fee for UP and then a separate fee per tournament.

And change the name you dumb fuck.

The button spacing gets into my head.  It doesn't make me press the wrong button most of the time, it just makes me not press anything.  It isn't unplayable, but that won't stop me from complaining about it.  Remember, I have a lot of complaint material from having to put up with chibi all this time.

Blame Chibi, thats the spirit!

EVERYBODY COME OUT TO THIS SO I CAN TAKE GROUP PICTURES USING MY CAMERA

The cab is a Marvel style cab(a space between the screen and the control panel), with Japanese buttons/sticks. Square gates, Samwa brand. 50 cents a game, pay per play. If you plan on coming down, e-mail Chibi regarding the hotel room. Chances are if you're coming down from another state, you'll want to rest in a nice comfortable room with the rest of us, which shouldn't be any more than $10 a head.

Suprised Kevin hasn't said anything about the cab not having a PS2 port.

EDIT: Wow DesertCoffin, if you come out to this you are sooo awesome. You too Vizard, it's nice to see new heads come out to philly for these tourneys.

EDITEDIT: Forgot to post in this topic with the changed date. It is now Feb 9th, sorry if anyone already made plans for the 2nd. :(

Why the FUCK would you want that D;?

Anybody coming down, it'd be great if you could bring extra recording equipment, or SD cards for my cameras. I've only got two at the moment which means theres gonna be a lot of game discriminating as far as recording goes.

Chibi you better make it down or its gonna be :madsad:
