Sure I have to run around to get people to sit on the mikes for half the matches.
Can I have a go
BTW, if StevoKnevo is coming, I'm pretty sure we're the top 2 Hondas in Ireland accord to BP in AE; he's miles ahead of me but I was trying to learn Yun for the first 2 days. It'll be interesting to see how he's dealing with the nerfs since he seems to be doing really well.
Oh, and I'm playing the Harbour Bar in Portrush the night before and won't get in until about 4am so getting to Dublin for 10 is going to be a nightmare. Are the doors at 10, or what time to I actually need to be there for?0 -

Hi Guys,
I suppose its about time I put up the timetable for the 18th June, a day that will live in infamy
I put a provisional one up a short while ago and there has not been much variance on it since but you can take this post as the definitive one.
9.30/9.45 (Trying to get exchange to open at 9.30 for us) - 10.15am registrations for all tournaments. Creation of brackets and layout of tourney structure. I will have a few people taking names at tables.
10.30 - MVC Double elimination brackets begins and run on 8 of the xboxs set up. This tournament is straight double elimination and there will be no seeding. I will have multiple bracket pools to cater for numbers. So lets say we have 64 entrants for that tourney I will create 4 brackets with 16 players in each to form 4 super pools. This means that players within their elimination pool will have their two lives to 'win' their pool. The 4 winners of each of the pools will go through the semi finals against the other players. Lives will carry forward into the semi's.
10.30 - Blaz Blue Double Elimination brackets begins and run on the Ps3 set up we will have. The format will be the same as MVC.
12.30 - The main event starts. Super Street Fighter 4 - Arcade Edition. This will follow a groups and then double elimination format. The groups for this will be seeded bases on the inferno seeding where possible and reputation if necessary. I will make sure there are international players are kept in separate groups. I will initially allocate 4 xboxi to this and will stagger the groups on starting and wind down the other tourneys until SSF4 - AE is running on all machines.
15.00 - I will free up 2 xboxi and start the straight single elim for MK9.
I will be selling raffle tickets throughout the day, for those that want a greater chance of winning the stick in the raffle. It will take place at the end of the day just before the final of SSF4.
The costs and prizes are well known to most but here they are again:
Event Entry : €5
Tournaments
Super Street Fighter - Arcade Edition : €15 (Groups & Double Elim)
Marvel v Capcom : €10 (Double Elim)
Blaz Blue : €10 (Double Elim)
Mortal Kombat : €5 (Single Elim)
Prizes
SSF4 - Flights to Las Vegas and Entry into EVO.
Marvel V Capcom - Madcatz Limited Edition Chun Li TE fightstick
Blaz Blue - 12 Month Xbox Live Subscription (Thanks to Gamesnash for this donation. Their on-going support for this community is greatly appreciated)
Mortal Kombat - Free entry to ArcadeCon (http://www.facebook.com/ArcadeCon) on 1st - 3rd July, 2011 in D4 Hotels, Ballsbridge. http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showt...p?t=2056232804 . This has been kindly donated to us by the organizers of that convention. Thank you, Its much appreciated.
The SSF4 prize will be allocated as following:
The top 8 for the SSF4 tournament will all have until 22nd June to email me about whether or not they can make it to EVO in Vegas. (Remember, there are people who work, study, cannot afford etc) This will allow each of the top 8 to see if they can make the necessary arrangements to go. I will then, starting at 1st and working my way down in order, give the prize to the person who placed highest and who has confirmed that they can go. If I have no received an email from someone before midnight on the 22nd June, they will forfeit their option. In the unlikely event that all of the top 8 cannot go, it will goto the people from 9th-16th. Each placing will determine the preference as above. Rinse and repeat until we have a traveler.
I am projecting we will finish by 18.30........ well I say projecting....... hoping might be more accurate.
I want to mention again that we have zero wiggle room for people being late. The days schedule means that we must start each tournament at the allocated times. I cannot delay matches. This will also be true for the whole day. If people are heading off to get lunch or something, then please ensure that you are not missing a game. I will have no choice but to forfeit a player from a match if they are absent when their match is due. I will do my best to make sure we know when your match will be played but basically, it works well for all if you are not gone for hours on end.
Thanks,
Aj
