QUB Saturday Slayers Swagfest 4.1 - SSF4: AE Ranbats (Saturday 13th August '11)

    The revival of the ranking battles up north, bring your best AE game and let's goooooooooooo!

    Date: Saturday 13th August 2011

    Location: Queen's University Belfast Student's Union, The Space (1st floor). It looks like this out the front.

    Schedule:
    13:30 - Casuals
    14:30 SHARP - SSF4: AE Tournament

    Entry fee: £1, all proceeds will go towards Child's Play, a charity for gamers (http://www.childsplaychari​ty.org/).

    Console: XBOX360, maybe a PC setup

    Tournament Format: 2/3 Rounds, 2/3 Games, Double Elimination, 99 Seconds, No Handicap. Grand finals will be 3/5 Games, the opponent from the loser's bracket must win the first 3/5 Games to 'reset' the bracket and win a consecutive 3/5 Games to take the tournament.

    Rules: If the players do not agree on a stage within 15 seconds, the match will be random stage select.

    Winner must keep the same character, but can select a new ultra in game 2 or 3, but has to pick the ultra before the opponent picks theirs. This does not apply to blind pick.

    Button checks MUST be performed before the match (this is especially important if you use an unconventional configuration or use a different stick/controller/converter​, or are playing on the same setup as someone who previously did). Once both participants are satisfied, they must go back to the character select screen to officially start their games.

    Any accidental pauses/disconnects are left to the discretion of the offender's opponent. They may opt to play on with no penalty to the offender or take the round. Any accidents that are neither participant's fault will be evaluated at that moment.

    It is highly recommended you take your own controller/stick/converter​ for your controller (if you intend to use a PS2/3 stick/controller). We cannot guarantee that we will have a spare for participants that turn up without one.

    Awesome, but what date will this take place on?

    Also, this might be a good time to announce that I'm looking into running KOF XIII ranbats when that comes out on console.

    There'll be a good crowd there from the regular sessions so it'll be worth going, and hopefully a few from RoI will show up too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 173 ✭✭fake_roogle


    as far as I'm aware yeah, most of the NI crew have confirmed their attendance to me. hopefully we can get some interested heads from down south or just random stragglers in as well to try it out~

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 196 ✭✭OriginalRazer

Im from Newry about 2 and a half hour bus trip away. I kan bring my own PS3 and game (prefer the ps3 pad) up if there will be anyone interested in doing so. Trying to start a local MK scene and wud love to meet ANYBODY interested. Plus Ill need directions on how to get there from the depo lol

    I don't think there'd be a problem with you bringing your setup - there'll be plenty of room for both kasuals and casuals. There isn't exactly much of a kommunity here, though.

    @OriginalRazer

    MK won't be at this event as a tournament game since it's just SSF4AE and I honestly doubt anyone would be willing to play MK casuals on the day because they'll be focused on SF. Just a head's up.

    Having said that, though, there does seem to be mk interest around here with regular players posting in the MK9 Discussion Thread and there's been MK tournaments in the past.

    Day of Champions 4 will be one to watch for you, it seems like there'll be MK9 being run on the day. (http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056344620)

    You should really get talking to the lads here:

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056211722

    ... ultimately, if you want to start making a scene, you MK people got to start talking to and arranging stuff with one another.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 196 ✭✭OriginalRazer


    So your basically telling me no one will be interested in MK next week?

    Theres bound to be someone.

    I don't want my first Tournament to be a waste of time.

    Id like to eventually start recording some MK Tourneys for my friends at TestYourMight.com they appreciate all that ****.

    Thanx Doom iv left some replies to those other threads.

    All the best,
    Razer


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 567 ✭✭✭Vyze


    You needn't be too upset. It's a Street Fighter tournament so a lot of other popular games won't be there. I'm sure Federer doesn't get upset when there's a snooker game on!

    The best thing to do if you want a MK tournament is to organise one! Scenes for smaller games (e.g. BlazBlue) were built entirely on people running their own tournaments due to the pre-existing lack of them.

    Well, don't take this the wrong way... you're talking about a Street Fighter tournament specifically for people who want to play Street Fighter :D There's people in Ireland who want to play MK, but they've no reason to come to this. It'd be like complaining no one wants to play tennis at a football tournament.

    I record most of the big tournaments that happen in Belfast/ Dublin in HD anyways, any game, and I provide the chance for commentary too. I've no problem with you grabbing the HD footage for your channel long as you put a mention where you got them in the description :)

    I'd really like to head down to Day of Champions, I've seen your vids and you might take it from Kuro Tao.

    Nope, I've seen your vids on your channel- I'm BrianVonDoom on youtube, the guy who directed you here.


    I know they're not tournament but you've a good head about the game and you clearly understand the games systems (you created some of those combos?). Trust me, you'll prob be top 3 in Ireland.

    DoC will be in the Exchange in Dublin.

    It is, but you've got to admire the dedication to messing up spelling in honour if ones main game. :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,237 ✭✭✭Owwmykneecap


    Similar to how Kiki always adds the sufix -lay to descriptions of what his opponents did to him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 567 ✭✭✭Vyze


    khopperbyrne is just jealous that his game spells words in your mindless government kontrolled sheeple way, rather than kool games of the people like MK and BlazBlue

    OPEN YOUR MINDS, PEOPLE. THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE.

    Gloves are off, FT10!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 173 ✭✭fake_roogle


    WOW this guy is mad hype for MK9 lmao good ****. however, i doubt that there will be many (if any) mk9 players so i would probably not waste your time comin up for it.

    the ranbat is tomorrow, hurray!! just as a brief, this is how you get to the Space inside the SU (which is not terribly obvious): go in through the front doors and just walk straight past the reception desk. you should walk past a Santander branch eventually you'll see a sign that says "The Space" (the stairwell for it should be right beside Relish/Starbucks/whatever it is nowadays). go up those stairs and you will be there, yeah!!

    also, because we have not had a ranbat in like, uh, forever, group seeding will be random and i'll decide on the day if we do top 8/16, depending on how many people turn up.

    oh yeah also please have £1 coin for entry, i'm very unlikely to have change on me so don't go nuts unloadin all of these £20 notes you rich fools!!

    I'm not coming now, had a £50 I needed to break so what's the point.

    But yeah I'm too broke at the mo. Will hopefully be up for the next one.

    I assume the premiership will be on some sort of TV nearby (for when I am knocked out - of course)? I cannot in good conscience not see football on the opening day of the season.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 173 ✭✭fake_roogle


    there's a whole bunch of TV's in the space, assuming we don't use all of them, they have normal programming so yeah i'm sure you could tune in if there's a free one sitting about. there's also a bar in the basement floor, but i'm not sure if that's open during the day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭ayjayirl


    .... there's also a bar in the basement floor, ....

    Speaking my language!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,762 ✭✭✭Yreval


    Correction: two bars on the basement - and a third on the first floor.
