    Hi all,

    Just so you know we'll be recording some fighting game tournaments this weekend on he Saturday and the Sunday at DCC. It's a big event but the preodrer tickets are all gone. There'll be some on the door on the day if you want to come. I understand that's a big trip for a large risk for some people :)

    If you're there already, feel free to come talk to us in the games room. I'm hoping to meet loads of new people there. If you don't know what I look like, I'll be the guy wearing various different Doctor Doom t shirts (well, it IS a comic con!)

    Just a heads up if you want to come along or even just watch the stream. I'm hoping to have it up on www.twitch.tv/brianvondoom.

    Will be there on Saturday. Demand for Kevin Conroy will dictate how long :p

    I'll be there to show off my scrubbyness and encourage people to pick up SF (so that I'm not the worst player ;_;)

    Just stay away from those random Kens :)

    I actually went through every matchup and figured out my basic options... hopefully there won't be any more shameful displays from me :)

    Another con?

    There's never too many!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Orim


    What's the format? I assume marvel and injustice are going to be about, considering the venue.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 25,868 Mod ✭✭✭✭Doctor DooM


    Exact times to come but provisionally there will be SF and Marvel on Sat, Injustice, Tekken and Melee on Sunday.

    You aren't working at them :)

    Probably too late but could I suggest small 4/8 man tournaments throughout the day. Makes more sense at an event like this where people will want to move around.

    Could make more sense at cons in general.

    I'll be there talking nonsense into a microphone.

    I can do the registration desk & run the brackets on Tournament Maker on my laptop if needed? Ar said he might use Challonge on his phone in conjunction with TM.

    Just for clarity. TheArcade are running a separate stall at DCC to us. We will be near each other but this is being run by Randomselect.ie/IFGC in all its glory.

    I spoke with theArcade director and we going to co-operate so that they don't run the same games as us :)

    Looks like it should be fun and hopefully we can get interest from a few new peoples.

    Good fighters to the right!

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


    Righteo. We will be using challonge brackets so people can follow the action and assuming I did it right, these will be the links

    http://challonge.com/dccultrasf - ultra

    http://challonge.com/DCCMARVEL - Marvel

    http://challonge.com/dccij - injustice

    http://challonge.com/dccmelee - Melee

    http://challonge.com/dccttt2 - TTT2

    The stream is in doubt as we are unsure of Internet connectivity until we get there to test it out.

    Might be able to. The only thing is that I don't have everything unlocked.
