shtkn Report post Posted March 28, 2014 Evo is upon us again, and as always, we will host side tournaments for the games that aren't officially on the evo lineup! However, this can not happen without your help! We need full setups and volunteers to help run everything. Equipment Needed: I would like to have 8-10 full setups this year (last year we only had 6-7) to run two pool at once. If you can volunteer equipment (PS3s and TVs), please let me know! We will also need copies of the games as well. We also need volunteers to run pools as well, I can't do everything, or else I would collapse from exhaustion. I would like one stream station (ideally two) to showcase some pool matches as well as top 8. Games and Format: Guilty Gear AC+R, Persona 4: Arena. Both are singles. Both capped at 128 entrants. All games on PS3 All games are $5 per player Pot split each tournament is 60/30/10 All tournaments are double elimination pools. All matches are best of three except grand finals, which is best of five All brackets will be randomly generated, no seeding. The top 2 of each pool advances to top 8. If we have time, then we can also run BBCP teams (no idea on format, open to suggestions). Rules: Guilty Gear No EX, Shadow, Gold characters In-game button macros are allowed only if both players agree to it. If neither player says anything, then they are disabled by default. If someone notices they are using macros when they should be disabled then offending player forfeits the match. No programmable controllers Persona 4: Arena No programmable controllers Schedule: This will be run on Friday since BBCP is being run on Saturday. I want to avoid that day since we will likely have the most player overlap with that game. Tentatively, we will take signups until 1 hour before pools start, then 30 minutes to create the brackets and post them, then 30 minutes for word to spread around, then start promptly at noon for gg and 4pm for p4. If that doesn't work for you, find me anytime the day before hte tournament, give me money, and i'll sign you up. I'm the 5foot 4 inch asian guy wearing a cowboy hat TENTATIVE SCHEDULEGGACR Signups end at 11amNoon-2pm: Pools 1 and 22pm-4pm: Pools 3 and 44pm-5:30pm: Top 8 Pools for P4Arena will start as soon as Pools for GG finish, top 8 for GG will still be running during P4Arena Pools 1 and 2P4Arena Signups end at 3pm4pm-6pm: Pools 1 and 26pm-8pm: Pools 3 and 48pm-9:30pm: Top 8No Online Registration: Unlike last year, I will not be taking signups online. Nevertheless, please post in this thread if you're interested to help me gauge how much equipment/time we need to finish this tournament. If you see me at evo the day before the tournament, feel free to tell me and give me your entry fee, but otherwise, no signups beforehand. No IOUs, if you don't have money, then I am not signing you up. Current List of Equipment+Volunteers:Equpiment Shtkn 1 full setup Delta 1 full setup Jigoku Roa 1 full setup KBNova 1 full setup Mo the Hawk 1 full setup Jyosua 1 full setup, 1 extra tv Fiestamente 1 full setup Lemstar 1 full setup Sanoshi 1 console Volunteers: Delta Jigoku Roa Mo the Hawk (during p4 pools only) Sanoshi Skye Stream Jyosua P4 Top 8 will be on Madcatz's stream Prizes Atlus has thrown $1000 into the prize pot for Persona 4:Arena, as well as a signed piece of art by famous artist of the Persona and SMT series: Shigenori Soejima!

Jyosua Report post Posted April 4, 2014 alright, i think i added everyone to the list for equipment. jyosua, you said you had 2 monitors, do you need one of them for streaming or commentating? i also have 2 monitors (but only 1 ps3)... can anyone supply a ps3? kbnova, you said one full setup for gg, does that mean we can't use it for p4? it's fine if we can't, i just need to make sure I do not need one for streaming or commentating; I have a third monitor for that purpose! I only have one PS3 though, so if someone can bring a PS3 for the second monitor, that would be 2 setups. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DJcream Report post Posted May 3, 2014 I wanna volunteer to run more side tournaments for Melty Blood: Actress Again, Aquapazza, Arcana Hearts 3 Love Max!!!!! and Chaos Code. Instead of creating a new thread, I want to know if I can get these games added to the first post with myself added to the volunteers list.

KBnova Report post Posted May 5, 2014 Hey kevin. I heard we can't use ps3 wireless pads for evo. Is this true for side tourneys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shtkn Report post Posted May 5, 2014 i hadn't thought about it till now, but i'm going to go with banning them too to prevent accidnetal synching. PS4 controllers are okay since they seem to not cause this issue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
