Rumble in the Tundra III- $500+ BONUS pot
Event Calendar: Soulcalibur Tournaments
AkazukinChaCha
[70] Platinum King
Event Location: Buffalo, NY

Location: Buffalo NY- keep reading punk:

By now most of you now know Buffalo is for real when it comes to fighting game communities, and that we have numerous underrated players and efficiently run tournaments. We aim to up the ante yet again.

Bringing in a POT BONUS for SF4 and SC4!! (details below)

With all the hype out there for crap ass tournaments run by people who don't have a clue on how to run shit, and let the inmates run the prison at their events, you can EXPECT better in Buffalo.

There will be:

- Huge pot bonuses, worth traveling for (will hopefully get larger by time of event)
- An extremely well organized and run tournament for each game.
- Brackets that WILL start on time and END on time
- No hassle or deception, 100% of the money goes to the players
- A large crowd, this tourney grows every time we hold it
- Space for everyone, no more cramping in small ass venues

I hope the BONUS + pot money will garner a little more travel interest from NYC, NJ, PA, OH, MA and MI. I want to see everyone possible make it, this will be an event to remember, please spread word and help this thing grow.

So on to the details you actually CARE about:

Date:
Saturday, November 14, 2009


Location: University of Buffalo- Student Union Assembly Room (North Campus)

http://www.buffalo.edu/community/vis...ons_north.html

For those coming off the 290, get off at the Millersport exit and take Millersport North to Flint Rd (should be first intersection, if Flint isnt the first intersection with a light then you are going the wrong way on Millersport)
- Make a Left on Flint Rd
- Proceed on Flint into UB campus
- Make a right on Ausburger Rd (if the street isn't labled it's not Ausburger)
- Proceed to the parking lots immediately to your left, but park towards their middle section (Jacobs Lot)
- WALKING directions from here:
- Head up the first walkway leading away from those parking lots (towards Jacobs Hall, passing it on your left)
- Cross Putnam Rd and continue in between Baldy Hall and Lockwood Library through a walkway.
- The Student Union is directly in front of you now, head to the first floor, make a left down the first hallway near the stairs and you will be at the assembly room (rm 145)

http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&rl...-8&sa=N&tab=wl


Time: Doors open at 12pm for casuals, tourneys start at 2pm.

(may be slight delay to any early birds as we have to wait for building maintenance to give the "ok" on the room when it is being set up, stupid University politics at work here)

Venue Fee: FREE

=====================================================

Tournaments (double elim):


StreetFighter 4: $10 entry (1st-70%, 2nd-20%, 3rd- 10%) $300 POT BONUS added on top of pot!!
Best 2 of 3 rounds, 2 of 3 matches
PS3, all normal tournament rules apply. All characters legal.


SoulCalibur 4: $10 entry (1st-70%, 2nd-20%, 3rd- 10%) $200 POT BONUS added on top of pot!!
Best 3 of 5 rounds, 2 of 3 matches, default time/life/gauge
PS3 only, all characters allowed except bonus


Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion: $10 entry (1st-70%, 2nd-20%, 3rd- 10%)
Best 3 of 5 rounds, 2 of 3 matches, default time/life/gauge
PS3, no bannings as of yet. If game gets pushed back on release, we will hold a DR tourney instead


BlazBlue: $10 entry (1st-70%, 2nd-20%, 3rd- 10%)
ps3, best 2 of 3 rounds, 2 of 3 matches, default settings
No character bans, easy special binds are banned
(will be run secondary after first round of tournies is finished)

Marvel vs Capcom 2: $10 Entry (winner takes all- pending on turnout if large, will have split)
2 of 3 matches, 360 version, standard tourney rules
Bring your OWN sticks for this, because we know how marvel players treat them :)
If players would prefer DC or PS3 version, please let me know.
(Will be run last due to lowest interest generated, should have 360 casuals all day)


So again, we had a huge turn out at RitT 2 despite no hype, over 70 players showed up. We plan on even MORE being here this time for that extra pot money.

If you have any questions on crash space, directions, tourney ideas, side tourney ideas or anything, PLEASE ASK and keep this thread HYPED.

The tourney will be run well and done in a timely fashion, all you have to do is- SHOW UP and STOP TALKIN MESS FROM BEHIND THAT KEYBOARD.

see you soon!

    lol I think he was being facetious, but if you needed a time frame then yes, the SC tourney would absolutely be done before 10pm. With time for casuals on the side. I'm more or less going to forcefully refuse to have every TV in the building taken over by SF4 if I have to, even if it comes down to personally removing players from the TV. Every game will have at least one station going at all times (ok maybe not Mahvel lol), more for Calibur because it's a main event and has the cash bonus. This will not be a repeat of Syracuse, I will make sure SC4 has adequate stations.

    Don't like it? Bring more TVs for SF4. This will not be the only game in the house, I can promise you that.

    Nah I'll just wear my guard uniform and bust in like "I'm da police!" *pose* and take that shit over. I mean, SF4 will have a majority of the consoles, I get that. But it won't have EVERY station at any point during the day, regardless of circumstances unless every player for every other game is gone. Which is unlikely to happen. So as long as there's people that want to play other games, those games will be running, PERIOD.

    Also we have to figure Tekken to take up a few systems as well, since it's brand new. So we'll need TVs. Hey we ought to get the Buffalo Jills out to this too, they're at like every fucking event I hear about around town lol. We'll just have Juan go hit em with that latino HEAT haha.

    I'd normally want to come up with 4 other people and support the SC scene in Buffalo, but I can't because I have an obligation I must attend to all day on November 13th, and that is the same day I'd need to leave of course. Sorry guys.

    Cha Cha I'm going to try to make it. Not sure how packed school schedule will be, but I can't say no to Gauranteed Pot and out of town players.

    T6 should be fun too.

    That sucks man, I was looking forward to showing you some REAL Buffalo food this time around. I felt really horrible last time about the whole situation when I heard you guys went to Red Robin instead of an authentic Buffalo spot. Next time you make it up here I guarantee I'll get you to the good spots.

    This event is going to be run without any problems and the bonus pot is gonna make shit HYPE. Where's all the top players at? We got NYC, Toronto, MA, NJ, let's see some more players!

    I actually haven't had a Loganberry milkshake yet, but Loganberry itself as a beverage is top notch. Also yes real food, either Vizzy's for that beef on weck, Duff's for wings, or if you're lucky and your stomach is man enough to handle it (mine won't be lol) maybe even both.
