Q. Is this the only Season’s Beatings this year?
A. No way! Our main, fall event is also in the works, where we put together insane special-event grudge matches and our usual crazy FGC spectacle.

Q. Isn’t this the same weekend as Shadowloo Showdown?
A. Yes; we expect to attract talent from across North America as usual, losing only a few names to the Australian epic -- and SB and SS together will be a stream monster’s dream being opposite time zones!

Q. “Summer Slam”?
A. This event is replacing the annual “Summer Slam” regional we’ve run the last few years. Just refer to it as “Season’s Beatings” for ease and brevity. No relation to Summer Jam!

GIVE EM HELL @THTB

Probably going to go to this one. Post up if you are thinking of going!

I would love to go, but what is up with these lame dates? May 5th is the weekend before the finals.

Any way we can petition for MK to be 3 out of 5 games? MLG did this and I think a majority of the players prefer it to 2 of 3 games. Anyways, I'm trying to make it out to this one, and so is most of the GGA team.

Man it would be great if it was one day! I'm broke as hell and this would allow me and Sivart to make it.

If anyone is interested, I'll be on hand doing stick mods! XD

I'll also be beating people's asses at Skullgirls, but I always take care of business before pleasure... ^_^
