But I would like too know, are the ranked players who threaten to come to this tourny actually coming or just contemplating it?

In 2007 I think, time magazine named kimchi one of the top five healthiest foods in the world. It's loaded with b vitamins and lots of nutrients. so it's hella good for you.

I wished this didn't conflicted with SBCC Gamefest. :(
Maybe next time SB crew can come down

Just contemplating, until I know the address of the venue and time constraints.
Well The Venue Address has been posted in the OP. Unknown just isn't very good at organizing his posts and they always look cluttered. As for the time we have it confirmed up til 9pm and judging from this thread, expected turn out doesn't look very high and we probably won't need much after that.

I'd most definitely choose this over Champs Biweekly.
Thanks for your vote of confidence

eh, to an extent and depends on the type. many types of kimchi's have a lot of sodium

i'm glad that i'm back in so-cal for the week since I get to consume as much kimchi as I want...

and sup gosu and unknown!!
Hey Bizzaro! We need to hang out more. I don't have enough G-dorf in my life, plus unknown is getting sick of playing against my fox



In the up coming week or so if we don't have sufficient interest we'll probably just turn this into a regular tourney since it's kinda silly to have just like 3 crews

This community seriously needs to revive crews/crew pride imo. Things get old real fast.

It's all about the Hype.

you can't revive what few care about. socal is not competitive, so by extension crews/crew pride is non-existent

Unfortunately this tournament looks to be a bust, so Im not taking away the crews event, but I am making it a basic tourny with crews added.

And Closing time will be 9pm unless I can convince them to let me have it for longer.

Bizzaro, nice to hear from you again. If you can make this that would be awesome, but we'll see.

this thought came up, n u might have gone over this idea with yourselves, but:
how about making this like the arcadian tourney where only nonranked players could compete
i think that had a great turnout
and have the crews as well so that those who have not been in one can experience it
-like if nobody has a "crew", but want to be in one, u can take up names and make crews out of those (assuming ppl would waant to)
-or have groups that quite dont make a crew and combine them (if ppl would be willing to do that)

OR u could just make it a crew championship, with unranked players, and focus solely on crews like u initially wanted to

but its ultimately what u want and what the ppl want and are gonna be receptive to............ just throwing my idea out

We thought about it but that's not what we intended this to be. We wanted this to be an event to stir pride in the various regional crews but as durr pointed out, pride is lacking. We may just do the event without the region stipulation for a crew but something else instead


Also we'll postpone this til June. It's clear there not enough interest at this point and too much other stuff going on as well. Uknown will get around to updating

Gosu you guys should come sb gamefest now this is postponed!

We'll see. I don't think I'll be able to get a ride by then since everyone who can give me a ride still thinks we're doing this. plus if unknown doesn't go then I can't go since I'm stuck with him now that I'm back home.


The most I can hope for at this point is making the LAN party some time in May if they still do it toward the end of the quarter. Even that is a longshot

What's a good EC region nowadays? MD/VA still? NY? I just know people are EC but don't know specifically where. Cause it'd be cool to do Cali vs Tristate or something

crews shouldn't be based on regions. We should be able to pick who we want to play with and that often leads to people from the same region teaming up anyways

thats my opinion

The purpose of this was to basically drive regional pride since we always heard people boast they hail from the best region. We thought it would be fun to finally let people put their money where their mouth is and prove it. If it turns out people were just trash talking and no one wants to represent their region then we'll drop the requirement and have a regular crew tournament.

They would be overpowered. lol
We were somewhat afraid of that, i.e. having Mango, Lucky, Zhu, Hugs, and Larry all on the same team. Although that could be fun to watch
