http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055936313

Stating at 6PM Friday 20th of August 2010
Ending at 6PM Sunday 22nd of August 2010

Entry: €30

Streete Community Centre,
Streete,
Co. Westmeath,
Ireland

They will be hosting a Super Street Fighter 4 competition. Speaking to the organizer of Midlans, Pyrogenx he is willing to offer a reduced entry fee of €20for those entering just the fighting game tournaments and not the actual lan.

Half of the entry fee will go into a prize pot for the SSF IV competition. Some spot prizes will also be provided by Midlans for the competition(like T-Shirts, Mouse Mats, Gaming Mice, Games, Headsets, USB keys etc).

He is also happy to let the fighting game community run this event and choose its format and rules so if we wanted the standard rules from Inferno we could use them, or if the community wanted to try some other form of tournament, like a team tournament we could perhaps do that.

Also there isn't a particular time restriction so like at lanparty.ie we could run more tournaments if people express an interest. Anyone let us know what you think.

If you have any questions I can pass them on to the event organizer.

Sounds good to me.

As long as it's a Saturday or Sunday, then I fully intend on being there.

Azza

Yeah we can do the tournament on any days. Saturday probably would be best though.

Sagat06

Saturday if it can be

Ramza

Pity it clashes with SVB, would be there otherwise

So close to home too!

Cobelcog

Sounds good, though I'll be at SVB instead.

Doctor DooM

I'll prob be at SVB too, but I promise West Meath is a close second

Slugs

I'll more than likely attend. Azza, could you ask about the possibility of bring your own console and have console competitions and prizes. Would definitely encourage me to go as well as bring more people and it's just gotten to the point where I'm practically screaming at event holders that they're missing out on an entire market...

FutureGuy

I'm on holidays, otherwise I'd be there.

chunkis

Yeah i think most of us will be at svb

Dreddybajs

SVB here as well

Orim

Any non SvB peoples planning to head down for this?

I was going to do a write up for the website but I realised I know nothing about this and my head is melted right now. Can someone (Azza?) give me any and all details in an easy to digest form?

Ken B

When is the SSFIV tourney on?


I certainly couldn't make all three days...

Props to Azza for the reduced rate, I might actually pop along if I'm in the Dublin area that weekend.

Aye, I know, but I travel around a lot for work, so if I'm in say Kerry, or England, I won't be attending.

Sure you're from Stillorgan. I was thinking you were one of our country friends that travelled up for stuff.

Hahaha, I am living aroundabouts Stillorgan at the moment, but I will be moving a fair bit closer to the city before the end of the year (which will make it far easier to attend casuals and infernos in the evenings).

I'm not from Dublin though, so you were essentially correct.

cherryghost

I'll be playing for sure! I'm a mite better than SFIV at last years LAN. Good times

EmSixTeen

I'm going down on Friday for this! Well, for Midlans in general but I'll be taking part in this too, playing like the scrub I am!

Doctor DooM

This is on the Saturday?

Think it's more important for me to attend this than Limerick if so.

i'll prob book tickets from Dublin tonight when I figure it out.

UberPrinny_Baal

I can't find a concrete day or time for this.

But this page:

http://midlans.org/2010comps.html

Says it's Vanilla IV on PC, which means I wouldn't actually have a main character, so I think that rules me out.

I seriously doubt it's vanilla.

I really hope it's not vanilla

Doctor DooM

I just sent a mail asking if they'd clarify which release is being played.

I don't think I could go back to old Guile tbh.

Watch this space.

You try playing a character with a totally useless Ultra, little miss I-hop-through-hadokens

I don't think it's vanilla. IIRC it wasn't last year

That would have been a neat trick.


(Super was only released about 6 months ago, if even)

:P

Ah it was more than just the SFIV comp. MAME was set up at the same area for some laughs with the other SF games:pac:

Azza

Its Super Street Fighter 4.

What day is it on?

Can't do Saturday, but can make it on Sunday.

Azza

The Saturday most likely. I'll get some details for you guys tonight.

Doctor DooM

I feel the standard "no Bison" rule should be enforced.

Azza

I'm looking at providing a PS3 and Xbox 360 for this. Anyone else from here intending to go, and if so would you be willing to bring a console?

Doctor DooM

It turns out I can just about fit the PS3 in the space I've got so I can bring it.

Ken B

Eeeerrrrmmm....when's it on??

Azza

Saturday. I haven't got a time a yet. Will let you know tomorrow.

cherryghost

Any update? Just hoping this doesnt totally overlap the css and cod4 competition. Usually doesnt though, theres always a workaround

Azza

I'm sure it won't clash with CS:S and COD competitions.

Doctor DooM

Ticket booked. Doomcam emptied. VSHG ready to rock. PS3 packed.

cherryghost

That was so embarrassing

chopperbyrne

What happened with this tournament anyway?
