That was fun. Had some really freaking close matches, <3 Jared, maybe I'll feel like passing Monolith next time, lol. I do agree that some of the first round matches were a little sketchy, but throughout the tourney I noticed that there were very few matches that were completely one-sided. I think if we do double elim., we should have qualifiers and do best vs worst, etc. so the losers bracket will be more even.

I also like the idea of having a serious tourney on one Saturday and a twisted tourney on another. I'm all for battle-mode, I think regular forced-mods matches wouldn't be too fair.

Tons of fun, there better be a Tails plushie there next time I come up, lol.

So, is the plan still on to have another tourney the Saturday after this coming one? Will it be run the same way as the last one, or will there be special rules?

No plans for anything as of yet while we re-arrange the series.

Saturday at noon would friggin own. Enough time for a couple rounds for people of different skill levels. Maybe even a custom song tourney (only for those who want to play custom songs). Although for that there would have to be special rules, say each person can play one custom song of their choice. Then the last song is a random song from the originals category on the machine. That could work.

Custom song tourney will not work. Song limit is 2:15 and it would take too long going through the menus, loading cards, loading songs, etc etc

I think sticking with ITG 1/2/3 songs is a good idea because there's no real gimmicky songs like Silikon or Hyperactif, and allowing Mungyodance would take too long to browse through unless you set the menu timer to a shorter limit.

Doing a double elim Battle Mode tourney sounds like a good idea to me, but even doing what we did last time sounds great to me, too.

Yay for very little warnings :). Battle Mode tourney, next saturday, 2 or so. $7 to enter. $5 goes to the store, $2 goes to a pot. Talk to Nick (Bish) for more info.

Well, you don't have to come if you don't want to, it's not some big money tourney; it's more for fun than anything else IMO. Personally, I'm glad they're doing something different. Straight FA tourneys are great, don't get me wrong, but it's nice to have something to break the monotony every once in a while.

Okay guys, heres the run down. Seeing as the owner doesn't want us running a tourney in her store, because we actually want a cash pot instead of plushie toy $#!%, Excuse me, Bluemystic can have his plushie toy for winning, the rest of us will take a cash pot.

So basically, this saturday, show up as early as possibly, it is most likely that Nick and I will be up there very very early, we will start doing a random qualifier, chosen day of, as soon as people arrive. Cost of the tourney will be 5$ a person, bring 7$ just incase we up it day of... xD...

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT, DO NOT WHATSOEVER, MENTION ANY KIND OF TOURNAMENT WHILE THE OWNER IS THERE (large indian lady)UNLESS YOU WANT PLUSHIE PRIZES?

But basically we will qualify till everyone is done and then start the tourney when the owner has left.

Battle mode is a no go, that would be the most ridiculously retarded tournament. Same as last time, ITG1,2,3, <song selection subject to change>

Alright, I think that is enough for now, Just ask me or nick if you have any questions.

SHOW UP EARLY... xD

Yes, PLEASE DONT MENTION THIS. When she caught wind of it, she immediately said NO because it would be "too busy". So this isnt an official GZ tourney. Also- Nick and I decided that Game Zone Exclusives are also in but a few of the longer songs from that category will be excluded the day of. Have fun everyone :)

I'm thinking that I'm going to try to be there. This is assuming that I can wake up early enough tomorrow to make it out there.

Edit: Will it be a major tragedy if I'm not there right at 10:00? (Like maybe 10:30?) I'll do what I can, but I just can't promise that I can make it there early enough. I realized that I have a couple things to take care of tomorrow morning.

Don't forget all the emo kids who cried because they couldn't play all day. That was the icing on the cake.

This one will be hard to top.
