I went to my first tournament a few months ago. We turned up late, which I didn't appreciate as it felt like everyone was well bonded and deep into the zone of playing. Apart from that it seemed pretty cool. I didn't really know what was going on. I had no idea what stage it was or who I was supposed to be playing. I recommend turning up early so you can talk to the organizer and figure out what is going to happen. I took this young kid with me to the tournament. We met on a gaming forum and it made sense to carpool as he lived locally to me. He ended up being really annoying. So my advice would be to actually get to know the person prior to travelling with them. I took two of my normal friends as well. I highly recommend you do this if you can. You'll feel less isolated and you won't feel so bad if you get bodied. It was definitely an interesting experience that I would like to do again. Next time though I am going to turn up early.

I've been playing with PS pads for years. I decided to try out sticks a few months ago. I tried various sticks out; even tried out a hitbox. I personally struggled with the lack of directional accuracy you get with sticks. Plus, having a cumbersome thing sitting on your lap is annoying. After I decided to go back to pad I feel a lot happier with my playing. I don't care if sticks are supposed to be more accurate, I love my pads. I recently started playing with a Sega Saturn controller, with a Mayflash converter. It's really awesome. The dpad is so light and accurate.
