    Same affair as usual.
    €350 flat cost for the night, so the more people who attend, the less each person has to pay.

    For anyone who isn't aware of how this is usually handled. We get access to the entire upstairs and all its set ups from 9:30/10pm till around 8am. We hook up the stream to a few of the monitors and have it on throughout the night. You're allowed to bring your own food and drink.

    Its a really great event if you're new to come along and just get to know everybody and play games.

    No can do for me.

    New job means early starts and the family are back from holiday that weekend.

    How much does it cost to break open a window again? :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,239 ✭✭✭UberPrinny_Baal


    No
    I booked the Monday off work months ago, and will definitely be bringing one non-fgc friend, possibly three.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,022 ✭✭✭Naphiel


    No
    Just to inform, we don't need definite numbers when booking. If you haven't confirmed by the date, you're still able to attend. The poll just helps to determine how much everybody has to pay and gives a general idea.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 70 ✭✭Saltylicious

    Definitely coming out to this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 332 ✭✭Simon_K

    So how does this work? Do we get locked in after midnight or something?

    Employee stays downstairs. Can open the door for people who need to leave and can have it opened by calling someone inside. Ordering food and such is fine. Otherwise the door is locked.

    Sadly I won't be there this year for reasons, but I wholeheartedly encourage everyone to go to this. It's a fantastic way to spend a night and trumps watching Evo solo, no doubt about it. I hope you guys have a good night this year!

    is it possible to edit the poll so we can see the names of those who are coming?

    Looks like MrWizard just revealed the Sunday night line up.

    BB -> KI -> Smash -> Marvel -> SF4

    http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=119832575&postcount=2449

    I'd also like to encourage those who's game of preference isn't on Sunday night to still attend the All-Nighter cause casuals for every game will be running. You guys really don't want to miss out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 332 ✭✭Simon_K


    No
    Any idea when will the SF4 top 8 start? I can't stay the whole night.

    i remember last year it started very early in the morning. It finished at around 8am... so i'm guessing around 6am.

    I'll set up my laptop as early as possible with 4 screens (minimum) showing evo. Hopefully we'll catch everything from BB on :)

    Evo Sunday starts earlier this year at 8am their time, so I reckon SF will start a lot earlier this year. Either that or they have a lot of stuff planned for in between tournaments.

    I'm brutal at calculating timezones, so I just dropped the evo schedule into google calendar as PDT events, and it auto-adjusts for me.

    Pools are 4pm to 7am our time each day.
    Finals day is 6pm to 6am.

    The people assigned for commentating BB are being told finals are at 8am. Which would mean 4pm our time.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 25,880 Mod ✭✭✭✭Doctor DooM


    No
    There's not much chance of me being able to be set up by 4. Sorry lads :(

    Are you sure? I'm just going off these:

    http://evo.shoryuken.com/schedule/
    http://evo2014.s3.amazonaws.com/brackets/index.html

    Seems more likely someone confused "finals" with "pools", because otherwise BB finals take place two hours before badge collection opens at the venue on Sunday.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,022 ✭✭✭Naphiel


    No
    The first link there is a really old schedule to give people a general idea. The second doesn't detail Sunday at all. BB plays all the way up to Top 8 on Saturday so all that is left for them to play is that on Sunday.

    The commentator that said it commentated BB last time as well, I don't think he's confusing something like that.

    I plan on heading in to the XGC at around 9 anyway.
