    Ok Lads,

    The second instalment for this is on Feb 1st. Couple of changes to be announced. Blaz Blue will be double elimination. As a result, the price will go to 5 euro - same as AE and Marvel.

    Other than that, it is same as for the others. Marvel has a low turnout last time -prob due to xmas and exams but I heard them all saying it was free as a result.

    Would it be possible to have a KI single elim side tourney at the event?

    I wouldn't enter ofc and would gladly bring a console to run brackets

    Don't see why not. Worked well last time. I would imagine we will have the same arrangement as last time so you could setup xbo same place.


    I want to just ask that people please bring copies of the games. We has a grand total of 3 SF disks and 2/3 marvel. We had 8 consoles but could use 1/2 of them. Can peeps coming please bring a disk for games and thank you to those who did.

    The tourney cannot run without the games and we do not have any other than that which people bring.

    I can bring 2 copies of SSF4, I can use a USB for AE for one copy, if anyone has AE on another USB key please bring it .

    I had discs for both of those with me. I didn't know you were short and didn't hear anyone asking for them though.

    To be fair I shouted it out at the top of my lungs twice. You just see smash and the whole world recedes :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 561 ✭✭✭Lythero


    Pretty sure I brought all 3 of those Marvel discs.

    I'll bring 'em next time too.

    Don't own any latest Street Fighters, but I assume you'll need my XBO joypad again for KI.

    UPDATE

    Due to popular demand and in the hope of getting more peeps to show up to the next R2C event, we are making all games double elim...... Bring your hype!

    This will have the effect of making the day a lot longer so we are re-jigging the schedule a bit and just flat feeing all the games the same, with some saver options for those who want to enter more than one game.

    So the new Schedule and pricing structure is as follows:

    Registrations will open at approximately 12.45pm on the day and will run up until the start of each of the events.

    Tournament Details
    Usual Rules from DoC or similar.

    uMvC3 - 1pm start. Double elimination
    (Best 3 of 5 with Grand finals being same) - Platform: XBOX360

    AEv2012 - 2pm start. Double elimination
    (Best 2 of 3 with Grand finals being best 3 of 5) - Platform: XBOX360

    BlazBlue - 1.30pm. Double elimination
    (Best 2 of 3 with Grand finals being best 3 of 5) - Platform: Ps3

    Injustice - 1.30pm. Double elimination
    (Best 3 of 5 with Grand finals being same) - Platform: Ps3

    Melee - 1.30pm. Double elimination
    (I actually have no idea and DeMan Dave will have to chime in but it'll be a tourney standard) - Platform: Wii

    Killer Instinct - 2.30pm. Double elimination
    (Best 2 of 3) - Platform: Xbox One

    Price List
    Venue Entry €5

    All Games €5

    Super Saver Combo
    Enter 2 Games €8

    Ultra Saver Combo
    Enter 4 Games €15

    Please note that wireless controllers are banned unless you get permission to use them so if you have one, get in touch.

    As you can see, all games will have started by 2pm so I'd ask that people who up with plenty of time. We have rental space with the XGC for the times of the tourney, if you wish to play before tournament starts, please ensure you are aware you will need to rent the machines in question.

    and, cause if not, this wont happen otherwise,
    PLEASE BRING COPIES OF THE GAME YOU ARE ENTERING.

    I'm likely to be arriving at the place a little bit after 11am I believe, would there be anyone else around that time? Just so I know how everything works for the tournaments and such.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 561 ✭✭✭Lythero


    I'd likely be there earlier than that if things go the same way as last RTC. Can't say for sure though.
