Hotel Info:

Here is a list of Hotels in very close vicinity to FFC:

FFC Tournaments (Click the Hotel Info tab).

The current "official hotel" for MMS '07 is:

Econo Lodge (West Dodge)
7833 Dodge Street
(402)391-7100

Econo Lodge is willing to give us a discount if we reserve more than 10 rooms for the event. Instead of the regularly listed 74.99 a night, here are the prices they will give:

1-bed (1-2 people): 49.99 + tax per night
2-bed (2-4 people): 54.99 + tax per night

Econo Lodge is located 6-8 blocks from Family Fun Center and is right behind a Village Inn. They are within minutes of 30+ restaurants, a grocery store, gas stations, etc. Please note that if 10+ rooms are not reserved, we will not get the discount and the regular prices will apply. To qualify for the special rates, call the number listed above and say that Andrew Susman referred you to reserve with the special rate.

Equipment disclaimer:
Neither I nor FFC will take responsibility for any stolen items, although we will try to ensure it doesn't happen. If you bring a GameCube/PS2/other system or GC controllers/any bemani controllers, you are responsible for keeping an eye on them. I would also suggest putting your name on anything which you bring with for extra safety.

If you are willing to donate any controllers, TVs, game systems, video games, or anything else for use in this event, please contact me and let me know.

Food/Beverages:
FFC has a general selection of arcade food, including pizza, nachos, popcorn, soda, hot dogs, and other items. There are a large number of other restaurants/fast food places in a very near vicinity to FFC, as well as several grocery stores.

FFC accomodations
As told to me personally by both of the owners, on tournament days, "the people participating in and running the tournaments have priority over all other customers". As such, they are making very large arrangements to make this as successful as possible for us.

-We will be moving more than 20 cabinets out of the arcade to give us more space. All of the dancing games and some of the others will be moved approx. 20 feet back from their current spots. This will give a large area in the middle of all of the Bemani, as well as lower noise interference between games.
-FFC will provide discounts if we buy larger orders of food or drink; example, a free 4th pizza if we buy 3 large pizzas.
-FFC will provide discounts on their other amusements, such as laser tag and mini-golf.
-All games will be on freeplay for the tournaments.
-FFC will likely provide a projector to play the SSBM tournaments on.

Specifics will be announced at a later date or at the tournament. Be assured that FFC is working to make this a successful set of events.

Prizes:
There will be cash prizes for the top 3 placers in each tournament. The pot for all tournaments will be split 70/25/5%.

Registration Fee
When signing up for any tournaments, all participants are subject to a one-time, non-refundable fee of $5. This will be given to FFC in exchange for letting us run it there. This will only be paid once and will not need to be paid again when signing up for any other tournaments.

Tournament rules:

Disclaimer: These rules can be changed at any time if necessary; if they are, however, I will post here saying that they were changed. Additionally, if a tournament is not possible because of a lack of time or non-functioning equipment, I reserve the right to cancel that tournament. We are doing everything possible to have EVERYTHING in perfect working order in time for this though, so take it as an "if" and not a "when".

-Random seeding
-If you're going somewhere, be sure to tell a tournament staff member about it so we can tell you when to be back.

Sets: There are no rules regarding character picking. For the first match in a set, players can either agree on a level or let the game do it for you (The random stages are listed below). After that, the loser of the round will be able to counterpick for the next round. Before each match players may ban a stage.

Each set is best of 3 matches; Semifinals are best of 5 matches; Finals are best of 7 matches

In the unlikely event that the final in a set ends in a tie (as a result of time running out), the match will be decided by who has the most stock. If both players have even stock, then it's by damage; one player has 300%, one has 50%. Guess who wins. In the VERY unlikely event that both players have even percentage (that's impossible unless you're noobs and shoot eachother with Fox until 999%, but I have to cover this anyway), the players will go to SUDDEN DEATH in Special Melee, set the stock to 1, and start a bonus match on the same stage.

Items will be set to NONE

In the event of an equipment malfunction, the match will be restart from the last known position or from any point in the match that is agreed upon by the players.

Glitches used to stop your opponent from controlling their character or indefinitely freezing them (Mewtwo's Soul Stunner, the Ice Climber freeze glitch), or any glitch or trick that freezes the match or makes it in any way unfinishable are banned. Using them will result in the immediate forfeit of the match.

Tactics such as Peach's Wallbombing and Jiggly's Rising Pound are allowed as methods of recovery or to maneuver around the stage. Using them (or any similar tactics) to excessively stall a match, such as dropping below levels intentionally and stalling underneath, is banned. Judges will be on the tournament floor and can be called in at any time to enforce this rule during a match.

Please do not bring any modded controllers because you will be disqualified if you use them in a tournament match. Nintendo Standards or Wavebirds (see below) are recommended. You may use third party controllers if you wish but if you are caught using their features you will be warned. More warnings lead to disqualification.


BRING WAVEBIRDS AT YOUR OWN RISK. It will be your responsibility to find others with Wavebirds and sort out the frequency issues. If you bring a wavebird it is highly suggested to bring a normal Gamecube controller in case your Wavebird malfunctions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Other info:

We will try to have some extra setups for console games (IIDX, Pop'n if anyone wants to bring their controller, SSBM, whatever other games people want to play). Please bring a modded PS2 or a GameCube if you can, or whatever other game systems you would like to (X360/Wii/PS3). Also, please try to bring your own controller if you can; we'll provide what we can, but more is better to have than not enough.

FFC has a pretty decent collection of fighting games, including Tekken 5, SF 3rd Strike (x2), Guilty Gear XX: Accent Core, Guilty Gear XX: The Midnight Carnival, SVC CHAOS, Dead or Alive 2, Soul Calibur, and several others. They also have Super Puzzle Fighter 2 .




Note about recording: Please bring any recording equipment (cameras, camcorders, laptops for dumping video onto, etc.) you can.


T-Shirts:
Jinx is designing a set of T-shirts for this event. These are works-in-progress for the moment:

For those who want to see the DDR Shirt (date of event on back is a placeholder until we decide for sure), you can check out the Midwest Music Showdown '07 Store. Each shirt will have a different style, with the DDR one getting the bright flashy look. All of the shirts will have the same basic back design.

What we'd like from you:
Please reply stating whether you are coming and what tournaments you think you'll enter.

Please let me know about any questions or concerns ASAP!

Hope to see you there!

Smash Bros Teams - Looking for Partners list
TheRealBong

 

[Brazoliange]

BIG update today. Things added into the original post include:
-Tentative schedule of events
-CONFIRMED dates (same as prior)
-Updated prize rules
-Added registration fee
-Updated attendance list
-Added tournament: SSBM Teams
-List of accomodations FFC is providing
-Updated food/beverages (slightly)
-Formatting on attendance list (everyone is now listed by Name (Forum/Location))

In particular, I want feedback on one item we're considering:

At 7 PM or so on Saturday night, we would like to take a break from gaming to book a restaurant and eat and socialize with everyone. We can either reserve a nice but affordable restaurant (near $10-$20 for a good meal; Kobe Steakhouse, Olive Garden, Sushi Japan, etc.) or a diner (Denny's, IHOP, Village Inn, Perkins). Since obviously this is for you, please let me know which option you'd prefer or if you have interest in the idea.

Hope to see you guys here soon! 2 more months! :D

 

[Drephen]

guitar hero?

 

[Tink]

sounds really fun. i would wanna come if the tourny didnt flop for smash. long way for a 30 man tourny for me.

 

[Brazoliange]

Guitar Hero is a big possibility, I'll add you as a vote.

We'd love to see you both here .

IMPORTANT: Added Hotel information, revised old information that was taken care of (such as schedule), added SSBM Teams (Looking for Partners) list.

 

[Brazoliange]

Hey guys.

Sorry for my unattentiveness towards getting updates done lately. I've been busy.

As a result of this, we are sending payment for a DrumMania V3 kit on Monday and should have it in by this Friday. Unless a major issue comes up, we will have DrumMania V3 and DrumMania 7th Mix both out on the floor for MMS. We also got Pop'n Music FEVER in and running thanks to Kenchan and Spork.

The first post has been fully updated with the complete tournament layout and rules. The schedule will be finalized on Monday night (and will not likely change). I'll update it tomorrow on other forums (because I am totally ready to pass out).

Any comments/questions/concerns/suggestions about the rules are welcome, but they are generally finalized aside from errors.

Regarding dinner> The current plan is Village Inn (behind the Econo Lodge at around 83rd and Dodge) at 1:30 AM on Saturday night. Any other questions, IM me.

 

[Brazoliange]

If anyone knows who might have taken:

A) FFC's GameCube+cords
B) deathrazor's GameCube controller
C) deathrazor's camera
D) sp3flip's shoes
E) VaderSeven's GameCube controller
F) VaderSeven's PS2 memory card

Please get in touch with me ASAP.


We had a great turnout (even better than I expected). We had 84 people sign up for any single tournament, let alone multiple tournaments. We had somewhere around 90-100 people overall.


Tournament Response

General Thanks Part 1:

Thanks to everyone that helped run tournaments, watch console setups, clean out pads, help cover food or give people rides, etc. CartoonHero, Dakota, Danny/Evil, Dave, IHST, WuTang, Kevin/Prez, Nick Jansen, Modarius, Marc/DualEdge, Faker, DarkMage, VaderSeven, Jinx, Spork, Nick, and anyone else I've forgotten. Without you guys, this wouldn't have been nearly as good or even possible at all.

Thanks to Marc/DualEdge for letting us use his Pop'n Music and Guitar Freaks ASCs. It was great to have them and I know a good number of people enjoyed using them.

Thanks to anyone who brought a Smash setup (I know someone brought a Wii, which is a potentially expensive accident but helped a lot). Additionally, big thanks to everyone from SmashBoards and other places that came out to play Smash. Everyone I talked to seemed both pleased with the turnout and confident that we could get an even better one next time. Sorry for things which could have been planned better (ex. Teams before Singles).

Thanks to FFC for being so open/easy with us running it, especially trusting us with keys to the games so we could adjust volume and put things on freeplay, fix problems as they arose, and for giving us a great setup.

Apologies:

Sorry to anyone who had anything stolen at the event. I am going to better plan who is covering things next time to try to reduce what is stolen next time, but I think with a tournament with this many people things are bound to get stolen pretty much no matter what.

Regarding cancelled tournaments:

Guitar Freaks CS, IIDX CS, and Pop'n FEVER AC were all cancelled (almost entirely) because of a lack of participants. I'm sorry to anyone that had been looking forward or had come largely for them (Wigmund and Trick especially), I just didn't feel they would have been good tournaments (none had more than 5 participants signed up). The next event will probably have less tournaments and only those that we can guarantee/partially guarantee enough people to run. Most likely it's looking like DDR, ITG2, SSBM Singles and Teams, maybe SSBM Crews or another Smash tournament, possibly IIDX, possibly DDR S4R, and possibly Pump It Up.

Regarding the Pump It Up tournament:

I was busy dealing with refunding people for the cancelled tournaments as we were trying to get this started. I was just about to grab people to start it when Jinx said he was going to. He said he was switching it to Round Robin (since we had 6 entrants) and running it. I wasn't aware of any change in the rules until it was 2/3 or so over, at which point he told me that rules had been changed to 1 person picking song and the other person picking mods. He also told me there was almost no objection to the rules which were changed. I did revise and update the rules for a reason, and I'm sorry that they were changed so last-minute. Next time I will make sure that the rules are a more standard format (as advertised) and make sure it runs on time.


Big thanks to everyone who came and made it the success it was. It was great to see you all and I can near-guarantee the next event will be even better. We're looking at sometime around either Christmas break, Spring break, or early next Summer and I hope you guys can make it here again.
