Yeeeeees Navy ruins tournament

Pretty much.
They're trying to put me on a ship that deploys at the end of this month. My name got thrown into a hat. I have a 1/5 chance on being picked.

Fml.

It's also expensive and there is a sweet music festival in Richmond on Saturday for the same price.

It's really not expensive compared to other tourneys and if you're from/in the area stop complaining.

Unknown is from Canada and he's coming down.

 

[KingofCereal]

I'm just more excited to see De la Soul and Yo la Tengo than for smash. Not a complaint, but if somehow I can get to Richmond early maybe I can convince my non-smashing friends to tag along for a bit.

 

[The Great Gonzales]

yeah lol if your from Virgina or Maryland its not too far. Im taking like a 10 hour bus drive for this lolz

btw i still have space oin my room to house people friday/saturday

 

[Merkuri]

Is there going to be a livestream for this tourney?

 

[rhan]

If there's internet at the hotel am I'm still going I could livestream.

 

[B_AWAL]

This is Graduation weekend in FL sorry

Have a stream so I can watch during graduation

 

[Merkuri]

If there's internet at the hotel am I'm still going I could livestream.

Is this real the best that's going on for this tourney? Is there really no guaranteed live stream?

Is this real the best that's going on for this tourney? Is there really no guaranteed live stream?

Wireless internet at the venue is ok, but not really stream quality. Currently the plan is to have the smash event in the 2nd ballroom, where unfortunately there is no access to wired internet. I think that's an OK tradeoff for having the most time/space allocated per gamer of any game in the tournament.

Also, running 2 streams (the 1st one is Sp00ky) is sometimes a dicey proposition at hotels with less the stellar internet.

I'm looking into securing a clearwire line, or possibly using 4G, but right now there's not a guaranteed Smash stream. It's a bandwidth issue, not a preference issue.

If I can secure the bandwidth, one of our local streamers will pick it up for sure.

My name still isn't on the pre reg list guys :'(

Oh yeah.

I'll be at this 100% now.

Edit: Btw how did you know my full name? Are we FB friends?

 

[barakasauras]

Darn, I'd love to come and spectate because I've never seen a tournament before, but I'm scheduled to work that day :/.



So close to me too.

 

[Dr Peepee]

sooooo

no one is housing saturday night of the tourney huh?

lame

 

[rhan]

PP.

SOmeone in this thread has space in their room.

I forget the name though. Go back like one page.

Edit: The Great What's his face. That's his name.

 

[Dr Peepee]

I have a carload of people lol I don't think we'll all fit.

I meant actual housing not in a hotel room.

I'll probably just have to book for Saturday I guess.

 

[Wenbobular]

Well me + friend + possibly another are staying with him already, so another car would probably be a little crowded (though I think having 15+ people in one hotel room at Apex was my smash hotel highlight)

 

[The Great Gonzales]

sooooo

no one is housing saturday night of the tourney huh?

lame

there is a housing thread but smashers leave everything last minute unfortunalty, just post there again if anything you migth get a hit like a week before. Like wembo said im alredy housing 5 people for friday and saturday, but if you dont find anyone i would not mind helping out saturday nigth althougth it be crowded as **** lol >_<

 

[crismas]

[ChuDat]

I'm going to be helping with pools and making sure the tournament runs smoothly. Please ask me anything if you have any questions .

 

[Cyrain]

It's also expensive and there is a sweet music festival in Richmond on Saturday for the same price.

There's a way sweeter music festival in Maryland that day.

[Mahone]

That is a good one too. I like the lineup for Shadrock a little more but Zola Jesus would be a treat.

CIVIL WAR 4 REGISTRATION TIMELINE

Civil War 4 Registration Timeline

Tuesday, April 24th, 11:59pm Cut off for 30$ preregister venue fee

Non paid invoices will be edited and resent at the 40$ venue fee.

Thursday, April 26, 5 p.m.: Cut off for online registration
No more new pre-registrations

Thursday, April 26, 7 p.m.: Cut off for completing Paypal payments
Any pending Paypal bills will be cancelled at 7 p.m.
If not paid by this time, registration is cancelled and player will need to register on-site. If you do not pre-pay you are not “pre-registered.”
On-Site registrations will not be seeded and may have to play in conflicting tournaments.

Friday, April 27, 6 p.m. to Saturday, April 28, 12 p.m.: Badge pick-up and on-site registration
Pre-registered players may pick-up badges and pool assignments
Players registering on-site may do so and will be added to pools as space permits
Players who have paid the venue fee may continue to add games as needed until 2 hours before game pools are scheduled to be begin

Registration for any given game ends two hours before first pool is scheduled.
This includes games with 11am start times on Saturday!
These games will likely be: Street Fighter 4: Arcade Edition, Tekken 6, Blazblue, and Smash Melee Singles.

 

[Renegade]

Pool assignments will be posted Thursday night, but are not final.
Smash pools will be running all day in waves. Each pool will have about 6 players, 2 TVs. If we have 14 Smash TV's for ex, That would allow 7 pools to be run at once.

Each Pool Set will have 3 hours allotted for the pool.

Again these are tentative.
IF YOU PRE-REG and PRE-PAY, you are AUTOMATICALLY IN THE BRACKET! Depending on your pool assignment (posted on Thursday) this could allow you to be late, hit traffic, whatever.
Pre-Reg ASAP!

Round Robin pools are a given at this point.

What is still subject to change based on attendance is:

1)how many qualify from each pool into a double elim bracket (2 or 3)
2)If non pool winners qualify into the losers side of the bracket

Currently, I'm leaning to having 2 qualify out of each pool, with the 2nd place person going into losers bracket. I have tested this for a total number of 126 entrants and it works for the time/resources/space we have. If 3 qualify, 3rd will definitely be in losers, with 2nd being a possibility.

I also believe attaching more to pool finishing than just seeding prevents collusion that can sometimes occur w/ RR pools.

Before any complaints are lodged, please be aware:

1)This is a consideration and not final. I'm just trying to make sure Round Robin can be done and still have time for it all.
2) This is a multi game tournament
3) Smash is getting by far the most attention when considering Setups/Space/Time allotments compared to any other game at the venue. For example, UMVC3 is slated to run up to 256 people on 16 setups in 4 hours. That's twice as many people on the same # of setups in 33% of the time. Smash gets both days, 12 hrs per day of all Smash. You're welcome ;-)

 

[Renegade]

lol you knew I was Gloucester? I'm originally from Newport News but I live in Norfolk now.

Oh yeah.

I'll be at this 100% now.

Edit: Btw how did you know my full name? Are we FB friends?

Because I'm "MASTER OF THE INTERNET"

or you know, I run registration/the tournament.

 

[DoH]

Second place goes right into losers bracket? What the ****?

 

[Renegade]

Second place goes right into losers bracket? What the ****?

To get 2nd in a pool, you do need to lose to someone.

Again, it's a consideration in case we need it due to time/space whatever. I'd rather an open discussion that just **** that ***hole.

Also, it prevents possible collusion from guaranteed placers throwing matches to friends in their pools, because they have to put way more at risk for getting 2nd than just seeding.


Anywho, keep up the comments.

 

[Renegade]

Well, to be honest... I'm leaning to 3 people make it out, and 3rd place is in losers. and the 1's and 2's play each other. But good to have options open.

Be thankful for Round Robin!

 

[Pyronic_Star]

why no brawl? QQ
