It beats playing with yourself.

Fair play man, theres a bit of a scene popping up in the limerick area alright so there should be a fair few here that can go.

Can I ask though, why this?:

Street Fighter tournaments generally follow a standardized format, 3 rounds per fight, best of 3 fights etc etc but the 99 seconds time limit is a very important part of the game and it'll really kill a lot of characters game plan if thats removed.

I'd recommend you put some more thought into the no timer aspect there man.

FrontierX

Well that is fair enough! I'll change that now, don't want to be ruining people's gameplans!!

Doctor DooM

I would also consider putting this on a Saturday.

I'd travel from dublin to pretty much anywhere IF I could for a tournament.

FrontierX

Well if we can gather enough interest by monday we can consider moving it to Saturday, without sizeable competition it wouldn't be worth your time

Orim

I'd be up for travelling down to this.

Personally I don't mind the Wednesday but the Saturday might get some more people.

Sairus

I dont reckon I'll be able to make another trip this week. Been back and forth and up and down the country every weekend for a month now =D
Good luck though, good to see another city hosting tourneys!

BanjoB

I'll def be there since ive been missing the last couple in dub.

Well for those in the Limerick area, I'd happily pick a few people up if it increases our numbers.

I'd pick up anyone en-route from Waterford to limerick but I don't thnk that'd suit anyone from here

Doesn't help as the last bus leaves at half seven.

I don't think I can make it to this as there doesn't seem to be a cheap fares train for getting down and I can't afford the full fare.

D4RK ONION

Goes without saying that I'll be there. I'll help run it too.

If any of the regulars here would like to come down tuesday evening, I can put you up for the night in my Limerick place and we can head over then in the morning. I have 2 couches, and I'd say I could fit two more into the beds of my flat-mates. Send me a PM if you're up for that. If not, what harm, more chances of prize-money for me

Robbknoll

Its time to show the world how bad i am! Definitely see ye at this guys.

BanjoB

Does anyone know where'd b handy to park around there that evening??? I'm stayin in my friends up there that night but he's a bit out from the town to leave the car. Cheers guys.

Sabre0001

Well on a Wednesday evening Denmark street should be pretty empty, i move my own car from the car park to there at around 5 every evening and tickets are never an issue after that time. Also it means u are pretty much right beside Frontier X then! If ya can manage to get in the loading bay in front of the Cuckoo Box that is pretty much perfect.

Doctor DooM

So tempting to come down and school you Limerick boys but it'd mean taking time off work and not sure I'd be able to get it...

Jim

Would come down but just can't afford it this week unfortunately.

Xinkai

What if we all pitch in for a hostel or hotel room & get the early bus back?

D4RK ONION

Like I said, I can fit about 3 in my house, first come and all that. You can come stay Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday if you give me a bit of notice.

FrontierX

Picked up a couple of fighting sticks for the PS3 today, now all i need to do is unlock all the chars! Got a few people to bring in their Xbox hard drives so we'll have them for that but I have a bit of work ahead of me for the PS3 version, if anyone in the Limerick area is around and wants to pop in any time before the tournament starts to give me a hand I'd be most appreciative

Pro tip:

Set difficulty to very easy


Set rounds to 1

Hard kick is your friend with nearly every character

Also, its great to see just how accommodating everyone is here on the forums offering lifts etc. You really dont see people offering a hand like that enough! We'll all be smiling and handshaking hands one minute and thinking "that tick-throwing f**ker" the next!

Raging I didnt meet the community sooner! Wouldnt have taken the big break from the game that I did.

Sisko

Yeah its good stuff.

Also its a pity the guys that run XGC aint as accommodating as FrontierX or gamenash.

D4RK ONION

Or our moviedrome friend! That guy's a legend!

FrontierX. Just sweep everyone to death!

Ya the guys in moviedrome are very accommodating and seems like they'd do pretty much anything for you. Comfy Couches too

That doesn't sound too nice

D4RK ONION

So, can anyone who's coming to this say it on here one more time, just so I've an idea of numbers? And Is anyone needing a place to stay?

It's complicated dude, I am in work tomorrow, I could take Wed off but I'd still need to get down to limerick after work and I'm not feeling too well, so I am not sure...

Orim

Im still interested and Jim mentioned it to me last night but the problem is trying to find a cheap way down. Might get the bus down and crash in yours on the Wednesday night, if that's cool. We'll help you throw a sexy party to make up for it (Assuming your female room-mates are sexy)

Jim

Ok, have sorted out my financial obligations and I am left with €25 to do until next week, which means I wont be coming down heh. Unfortunate.

I'll be there man.
Does it look like we'll get the numbers???

FrontierX

It'll go ahead anyway whether there is 5 people or 20 so don't worry about that!

Mr. K

I think Sabre and I will be there at around half eight. Too late for the tourney, but we'll try to support the scene as well as we can!

Robbknoll

Been hit with work til 7 so il try snake off early to get in. 90% sure ill be there for the start.

FrontierX

If needs be we can delay the start of the tournament by 30 mins to an hour, don't think anyone needs to be leaving early anyway....

D4RK ONION

Okay cool. No problem with BanjoB or Orim staying. Bring sleeping bags in case my flat mates are there and you need to use the couches. I have two.

Thanks a mill for the offer man but I'm stayin with a friend up there anyway 2moro night. Appreciate it though. Hopefully we'll have enough peep's to get some kind of tourney goin. :pac:

Generic_name01

Tis late and I'm sleepy! Just posting to say I'll be there! Mite pop in early

Sisko

Good luck with this guys! Hope it goes well!

BanjoB

So any idea what time this is starting??. I'll b up in limerick anyway so it doesn't really matter to me..
Secondly, have we roughly got an idea on number of attendee's??

Orim

I think they said half seven Banjo.

I'm not going to head down to this one but good luck, I hope it runs well and I'll try and get down for the next one.

Generic_name01

Can anyone confirm the time for this so?
