Chun Report post Posted April 29, 2011 But since that's not gonna happen anyways the bottom line is this NCI is dead I'd appreciate it if the emphasis wasn't so much on the disappointment of no BBCS2. Calling NCI "dead" because one thing didn't come isn't right. NCI's all about the community having a good time, and playing games. Please respect that much about how much I put into this every month despite my personal obligations. ~Chun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not every NCI is going to be huge, we all have personal obligations, most people are heading into the end of the semester for school, or other things. Don't get so hung up on it and just make the best with what we have. Not really a big deal, if its a small turn out, its a small turn out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeaverDeity Report post Posted April 29, 2011 The atmosphere and amount of fun in these tournaments is what makes me come, so hopefully a lot of others will come for the same reason. :D If not many show up, then that's okay too I guess. Either way NCI offers a fun atmosphere that not many other communities can attempt to copy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NCI's all about the community having a good time, and playing games. Please respect that much about how much I put into this every month despite my personal obligations. ~Chun How can it be about the community if no one from the community is there? I can understand the disappointment swelling up a little bit as everyone says they can't show up. Personally, I'm torn between going to Hadocon (the tournament I actually want to go to) and NCI (the tournament I want to support), and when I see a thread saying that like 90% of people I expect to be there, and say hi to and have fun with aren't going to be there, it definitely hurts my idea of a good tournament. Personally, I would want to just see the tournament happen next week, so we could have CS2, a lot of the people might be able to go, and personally I wouldn't have to choose (that last one is purely self interest and actually shouldn't affect the decision, just convenient!) That's the way I'm seeing it anyway. I think at this point I have a lot more reasons to go to Hadocon, since I'll be able to hang out with more of my friends and play a relevant game. CS1 feels so bland to me, playing a dead game every tournament just gets old. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chun Report post Posted April 30, 2011 How can it be about the community if no one from the community is there? Arcana Heart 3, Guilty Gear, and Melty Blood are all part of the community on top of BB:CS. I don't expect this month's NCI to focus on BB very much at all with the new patch coming through next month; AH3 is pretty new on the PSN (lol down) network and most of that will happen, and probably will be the main event for this month. Relevant games, AH3 will also be at the ReveLAtions tournament for 1000$. Your personal agenda is fine, I just don't think this extreme downer atmosphere is warranted just because I couldn't get an exclusive early hit on the game we all play. Have fun at Hadocon. What rhymes with Mortal Kombat? ~Chun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dacidbro Report post Posted April 30, 2011 That's fair, it's just I can understand why people are feeling sad about BB and feeling like this NCI is 'dead' for them, because all of their friends aren't going to be there. Of course those are all part of the community, but when no one is there for the game that you enjoy, it sucks. Moving the tournament time was pretty moot though, you're right. It would just be convenient for me and a few others, not for the rest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chun Report post Posted April 30, 2011 but when no one is there for the game that you enjoy, it sucks. SEE: Melty Blood Community every NCI I like to think people come to NCI just to enjoy themselves, try and play a lot of new and old games, and make some new friends on top of making a name at NCI. It's a great opportunity to try out a lot of games and just set up something fun and get people hyped about it for the heck of it(EFZ, IaMP, whatever godlike quality NeoGeo game comes). My sole purpose in investing my time into this was always about representing little known games or scenes that don't have recognition in the public gaming sphere. It grows a little each time, and I can't ask for a better result right now. I understand you know my intentions; Reasons for going are really just a personal thing for each player. There's no reason why new friends can't be made in such a friendly and fun community, so don't worry, I've got this . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RinHara5aki Report post Posted May 2, 2011 Didn't mean to come off like you're doing nothing Chun, I really appreciate you running NCI. Its just a fact that a lot of people aren't going to not show up, thats all. But what does it matter you hate me anyways Knowing that FailStation probably isn't gonna be up for us to even access BBCS2 by next week anyways is pretty funny.
