Without further delay, I am proud to present Frosty Faustings V. Chicago's major winter tournament series. With a brand new version of Guilty Gear on the horizon (Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R), what a perfect way to show your support for the Guilty Gear scene! This year we have a lot of awsome things planned, and the hype is going to be bigger and better than ever! More games, more events, more faustings!
For now, this thread is being made as a place holder. Many things are still in the planning process. I will constantly be updating this thread so keep an eye out. The date is set so start checking your travel plans early while tickets are still cheap!
Registation: Please post in the thread which games you plan to enter.

Official Tournament Games: (This is a tentative list. Games listed as main games are guarenteed to stay as main games. Other main games or side tournaments may be added and I will update main game list.
the main event...
Guilty Gear XX Accent Core (plus R?): singles $500 POT BONUS!!!
(Since the GGXXAC+R console release date is unknown at this time, I am unable to say which version we will be running as of now. If R comes out in time, I will run R. If not, we will be playing regular AC. If there is no console R by then, I will look into the possability of running arcade R. If we run arcade R, I will probably run a regular AC console tournament too so that we can play both). 1st place winner will get $500 bonus on top of the tournament pot winnings!
Guilty Gear XX Accent Core (plus R?): teams
Waseda style 2 on 2
Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition ($200 pot bonus)
