2v2 Tournament Saturday October 30th at the XGC 1pm

animaX

Update this tournament is taking place on Saturday the 30th of October in the XGC. Starting a 1:00PM, entry fee is €15, 10 of which goes to the prize pot.

Team Size is 2v2.

***********************************************************************************


Anyone interested in having a tournament in my place this weekend on saturday 30th October?! It could double-up as my going-away session. It would still be a team tourny of some sort.

My apartment's common room is plenty big enough to fit a lot of us and if i get a loan of a ps3 from someone then i can have two setups at either end of the room. There are loads of comfy couches and chairs.

We could have it early after lunch (say 2/3) so that people who are driving will have time to make it home and those who want to hang on for a night session can stay around.

DCU is very easy to get to by car (M50, then turn off for ballymun and keep heading south) or by bus (4, 4A, 11, 11A, 13, 13A, 19A all leave from Dr. Quirkeys on O'Connell Street).

Anyone up for it?

Yeah definitely.

I'll be making the trip up around from the southernmost point of the M50 if anyone en route wants to hitch a ride.

If you could do it in friday. Yes.

What's this about you going away?


Ps: Terry, just read your giveaway thread, good luck in your future escapades. All the best! I'm sure wherever you are, you'll be able to connect online, so don't be a stranger.

Dreddybajs

That would be absolutely brilliant Terry, well up for it!

animaX

That's cool, people are up for it. Maybe i'll start a new thread or ask Doom to form a new thread from this

Speed Boat

Yeah good call. Let's make this official!

Doctor DooM

Threads split at request.


I think we should all drink tiger beer for this one in honour of Terrence.

animaX

Haha, epic thread name!

Doctor DooM

Do you want to HD this tournament terry?


Will there be room?

We could even do commentary if you don't mind the players not hearing the game too well (there's no chance of my splitter arriving before Sat)

Ramza

Yeah sounds great, I'd definitely be interested, last one in DCU was great craic

Orim

I can't make it.

Someone break into a classroom and use the projector.

Ah no you don't have to. Don't want to be putting extra pressure on you. Also, not recording it might give more of a "you had to be there" feel.

pdbhp

I'm up for this tourney.
Good luck in your future endevours Terry:D

Edit: When is this tourney gonna happen?

I'm heading to Venice on the 30th so this is simply impossible for me. If for some reason, this was postponed, I'd be there with bells on...

You're living in Tallaght (kip) so you should come with me and your gayzar mate Johnny

chopperbyrne

Just so everyone knows, it's bring your own beer.

Unfortunately this is the only time I can do it. I'll be out of dublin by the following weekend. But I'll be home in wexford briefly soon enough and we can finally have an online session!

DPjohnny wrote: »

Can get buses from O'Connell street (see the first post) and as chopper said, you could meet people in town.

chopperbyrne wrote: »

Yeah, should have mentioned that!

What do people think about the time? I was thinking early so that people could drive up and back home in time but if they're not gonna come it might be better to have it a bit later, say 6pm? Maybe i'll decide when i have a better idea of who's coming

Ramza

Lol, that was gas, playing at half 5 (or was it 6?) in the morning wrecked tired and half cut, good times

animaX

Lads, I might have some bad news for you. Not 100% sure if this can go ahead now, my nanny passed away during the night so I'm heading home to wexford. If I can make it back up I will but I can't guarantee anything

Placebo

sorry to hear that Terry.
No pressure on that tournament ofcourse, we will see you off in the pub and get you a young broad for some private 1 on 1 action at the XGC , in the phone booths downstairs.

Doctor DooM

Sorry for your loss Terry. I know it can be a horrible time.

Do whatever you need to, we'll be waiting, no pressure.

UberPrinny_Baal

Sorry to hear about your nanny Terry, don't worry about the tournament, family commitments are obviously more important.

Dreddybajs

Sorry for your loss Terry, and yeah obviously family comes first. If needs be I can run this in XGC or something anyway.

Ramza

Sorry to hear Terry, my condolences

GorySnake

Im sorry to hear that Terry, I hope you and your family are ok.

Dreddybajs

Dunno if this is now the thread to use, but I've now got the Big Bag of Terry Stuff and want to keep the ps2 stick and converters for it (and possibly a stick and buttons, haven't looked through yet - if so I'll put the Seimitsu ones in the SE back in the bag).

D4RK ONION

That's awful Terry, sorry to hear that. Keep your head up

animaX

Ok, looks like this is definitely not on in my place. Funeral is friday and will probably hang around wexford til sunday.

You lads go ahead and have it in xgc, if I am back in dublin i'll pop in.

Xinkai

Sorry Terry
Hope everything is ok and gets better asap.
My condolences

chopperbyrne

Sorry for your loss Terry.

I'm sure we'll all have a few drinks (and paranoid stories) with you before you leave.

Who needs a partner for Saturday now and what time are we starting at?

Owwmykneecap

Team Hedge?

pdbhp

Well peoples is this tourney happening this Saturday and at what time?

Dreddybajs

1pm on Saturday, I texted Doom asking him to edit this thread when he gets online, my net's screwing up and it's taking me ages to get any posts made.

What do people want for an entry fee? I was thinking 5 for console rental and 10 euro per team.

Is that €15 per team or €5 each and a further €10 per team?

Dreddybajs

15 euro per team overall, sorry should have specified. That should cover a decent amount of casuals machines as well as the team tourney won't be using many setups.
