Evo Qualifier Tournament - June 18th, 2011 A.D. - The Exchange Temple Bar

ayjayirl · 28-04-2011 1:26pm #1

Hi all,

Tis that time of year again - Evo is coming. We, the Fighting Games Community Ireland, are hosting a qualifying tournament for the event with a first prize of flights to Las Vegas and entry to the event!

The main tournament will be SSF4. We hope to have AE for the tournament but this depends on the release date of the DLC. We will also be running MVC3, Blaz Blue and, MK9 tournaments. A Timetable for the days events and the cost of entry will be confirmed and put up closer to the event. We are hoping that everyone in the community can make it to this event and make it the biggest we have had so far. It promises to be interesting with everyone beating everyone these days.

The rules will follow inferno for SSF4 and the other tournament formats for MVC3 and Blaz Blue. MK9 format is tbc

Prizes so far include flights, entry to EVO, sticks and vouchers. We will expand this to spot prizes for the saltiest loss and best come back etc.

The event will be held at the Exchange in Temple Bar on June 18th. There will be no inferno in June to help with this event (Thank you guys)

We are taking early registrations on the official website at http://evo.streetfighter.ie. All early registrations who attend the event will be put into a draw for a special prize. Please goto the registration page and put in your details so we can plan to make the event memorable.

We will have recording equipment, the projectors setup and the latest technique of turtling and raging.

I will use this thread to update you as we get closer to the event. I hope everyone can make from all over Ireland, up north, in Cork and the other wilds as well as Dublin.

COME ONE, COME ALL - GET HYPE!

I'm very glad that something like this is happening. It's good for the community.

If I can help out in any way let me know.

(btw, can't register on that site with my email address "already in use", I'm guessing due to having an account on sf.ie already)

If the DLC sticks to the current release date and doesn't get delayed, it should make for an interesting tournament. Wonder if we'll see any day 4 Yuns!

Dreddybajs · 28-04-2011 2:10pm

<--- Day 4 Yun right here. :pac:

Having the same problem as Kneecap while trying to register.

Placebo · 28-04-2011 2:12pm

Sean Purcell, you registered twice there, perhaps you did it by mistake.
Please avoid 'fullstops' after entering your email address' as well.

Dreddybajs you've registered fine aswell?

Probably. I'll sort it out now.

Sorted.

Voa · 28-04-2011 2:24pm

I'll fight you for it.

Or rather, I'll fight Joe and get it.
Also, cannae do an early reg for the tournament, I'll only be in for BB and MvC and hype.

ayjayirl · 28-04-2011 2:26pm

Registration Problem fixed.

If possible - we will. The exchange has T-interweb but I am not sure of its speed.

My identity is out!

Time for a hyper viper beam hyper injunction

K.O.Kiki · 28-04-2011 3:18pm

Owwmykneecap · 28-04-2011 3:19pm

ayjayirl · 28-04-2011 3:41pm

128 views - half that at the event would be disco.

Sagat06 · 28-04-2011 3:50pm

Delighted to see this up and running again lads.

*e-mail already in use on reg screen

chopperbyrne · 28-04-2011 3:50pm

Should probably post this in the competitive gaming and general games forums too.

Owwmykneecap · 28-04-2011 4:01pm

ffiv for me

D4RK ONION · 28-04-2011 4:36pm

I'm in, looking forward to an awesome event! Ye should get this up on the twitter and facebook accounts and get people to retweet it/share it or whatever.

Misty Chaos · 28-04-2011 4:56pm

Count me in too, guys. I think I might as well as try and make a night out for myself so that I'm not rushing home on a train/bus afterwards.

Delighted to see this is going ahead.

And if your using AE, you'll probably be seeing me using Oni at some point or another, probably during casuals.

chopperbyrne · 28-04-2011 5:18pm

Nice ninja edit ayjay!

Dreddybajs · 28-04-2011 5:27pm

Firefox 4 Farz and I definitely got an error on my end. Didn't register twice, no full stop after email address, etc.

Placebo · 28-04-2011 5:37pm

fixed i think, request was being sent twice in firefox 4, not sure why.
Some one try it with a fake email, please denote it with a FAKE prefix so we know.
disaster . soz ajz

K.O.Kiki · 28-04-2011 6:24pm

Tried a test (fake) there, that worked fine.

Tried my actual email address, it tells me it's in use.
Is it tied into the SF.ie database?

Using Firefox ver. 3.6.17pre

Anyway I'm in; not sure if who to use though :rolleyes:

Placebo · 28-04-2011 6:30pm

Your actual one went in the first time.
Firefox was entering the people in , then checking them instantly,
something to do with the way it handels POST requests, im not sure.
It was working fine on my firefox so i couldnt tell

FutureGuy · 28-04-2011 6:45pm

Agree with Onion, we need to be able to facebook/tweet this. There are plent of people out there who play the game who have zero interest in forums/boards.
