** June 16th, Final Corpus Christi, TX tournament (SSBM/3S/GGAC/Other Games) **


The Battle of Retribution!


It's come down to this! The final tournament that I will host in Corpus.
The official Gamer's Den Corpus Christi tournament on June 16th (Saturday).

Please Read!!
This time around, games will start earlier and brackets will be alot more organized. All I ask of you, is that I'm going to need some help. Please if anyone can, I'm gonna need some volintiers to help with brackets, especially for Melee.

Also, if anyone can, we are gonna need some extra TVs and gamecubes. Maybe ps2s, but I'm kind of doubting it so don't worry too much about that department.

Now for the schedule:


>> Schedule <<
--> Super Smash Bros. Melee (2:00 pm)
--> Street Fighter 3: Third Strike (3:15 pm)
--> Guilty Gear XX: Accent Core (5:45 pm)
--> Marvel vs Capcom 2 (6:30 pm)
--> Capcom Vs SNK 2 (7:00 pm)
--> Team Tournaments for GG:AC and 3rd Strike (7:30 pm)

Gamer's Den will open there doors at 12:00 pm.
I should be there around 12:45 pm setting up the equipment. Around that time casuals will be open and so will registrations.

There is a small chance that GG:AC, MvC2, or CvS2 might get pushed back a little. Hopefully we will have teams running on time, but even that might get a push back as well. We will see how things will turn out.

PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN CONTROLLER!!

Please Note: If I don't get at least 6 people for any of these games, that portion of the tournament will be canceled. I'm not going to delay it due to lack of players.
And stay at your station when you know your match it is coming up. If your not at your game station when called in less than three minutes YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED (unless you have some sort of good excuse).


>> Rules <<
* All rules are arcade standard except for Melee which will be played under MLG rules.
* Don't use any game breaking glitches for any game that will prevent the match to continue (except for Fist of the North Star, some glitches will be accepted).
* If you win with your character, you have no choice but to stay as that character until you have lost (this rule applies to ALL games except Melee).
* If you pause in a middle of a match, your opponent has the option to choice to have you losing that match or having a do over.
* Matches will be played 2 out of 3 except for certain situations where we would change this (like the grand finals and what not). However, CvS2 will only be played in single matches.

Also, please don't act stupid.
In other words, don't act childish. I don't want to hear baby excuses on why you lost or why you can't win. When the tournament starts for that portion of the game there will be NO CASUALS until that portion/game of that tournament is over.
If you are playing casuals, you will be given one warning, but if you are cought again after being warned you will be DQed (yum, ice cream... no but seriously).

No drugs allowed around the Gamer's Den area, but I'm sure you guys know this by now... I hope...


>> Team Rules <<
Guilty Gear AC and 3rd Strike might have a chance at running a 2v2 tournament. If schedules do become a mess, than GG:AC will be canceled during the tournament, lets hope nothing goes wrong.
I'm sorry, but I will not be hosting a team Smash Bros tournament.
* Both team members must use different characters.
* Stay as the character you have picked, even when you lose.
* You may switch the order you go anytime you want.
* Once you have lost once, it is your partners turn. The matches will not be 2 out of 3, they will be singles.
* Once both team-mates have lost, you will be moved to the losers bracket. Once you've lost there........ then you've lost completely.

Idk if I can make it to this because *pound*2 in Maryland is only a week after this, but since I know TX doesn't travel out of state much, everyone should hit this up. I'll try to make it tho just cuz I really wanna see GGAC, not to mention anywhere there's smash i always wanna be there. :p

So yea, show up to this thing, people! :chuckle:

I might try another attempt at coming to this with Aj again.

Is AC going to be played on arcade? Or will it be out for PS2 by then...?

There's this in smash called thing called, "Im goin Peach + Brinstar against your Falco" and usually after thats its time for you to pull out your "**** your **** im goin Marth" move.

well, if thats the case, what about just not telling the opponent what stage you are picking, but he can change characters.

Re-reading your post, I think I understand.
I forget about the whole "stage issue" thing.

Hmmmmm...
Well, whatever works I suppose.

it depends on what rules are being used. MLG ruleset. Moast Ruleset. Heck if the host wants he can make whatever rules he wants. But yeah it depends on the hostt and the rules he wants. Now attendance may be affected by the ruleset if people dont like them.

Got reports from a friend of mine that the flyers hes spreading around in random game stores in Corpus are actually demanding them. Rather than just refusing them and threating him in attempted to advertise at other stores (like last time).

I guess the 4th one really got the word around and alot of people are really wanting in on the 5th one.

Sounds like its gonna be bigger than the last one.
Hope you guys can make it.


Also, added a bit more info in the schedule and change the rule on character changing on Melee portion.

I'm considering coming...I don't know what my schedule will be like in a month, though. But for the moment count me in.

And let me get this straight: $1 entry + $10 game = $11 entry fee for singles (smash)?

Update!
*Registration Fees have slightly changed.
This will only effect those who are interested in more than one game at the tournament.

*Pics of Gamer's Den have been added.

*More rules have been added. Just common sense stuff.

Correct.

Crap... my parents aren't happy about corpus being 4-5 hours away. They're not very supportive of me doing this...
I'll see what I can do, but it doesn't look good right now. (But, hey, I've got a month.)

New games have been added!

--> Marvel vs Capcom 2 (6:30 pm)
--> Capcom Vs SNK 2 (7:00 pm)


These games are now official!


It seems like quiet a bit of these games are being crammed into the 5:00 - 7:00 schedule. Hopefully, with the equipment we have, things will run smoothly. As noted before, things might get pushed back and if things do get to messy then GG:AC teams might get canned.

With that is said and done, hope you enjoy this event!
2 weeks left!
