Ill be there as long as im not working when are u guys having this? Were looking to have another tournament of our own as well if guys will show up. Its weird to me that there are so many guys who play and go on this website but when tournament time comes around getting more than 10 guys is a chore. We want to have something big at the house with around 30 or 40 guys, possibly for money

after talking to summoning, he recommends we just use regular PC monitors. I know I don't really have one big enough, but I'll still be bringing either 1 or 2 CRT TV's just in case. I know one has s-video, gonna check the other one after work to be sure.

Anyone have a larger PC monitor they can bring? Ideally 19" or bigger.. hopefully something 20+...

Yeah, I have a 21 incher I can nick from work for the tourney.

the one thing that is important to remember is that, if we use monitors, the laptops may not have great sound, so we may need speakers.

Also, I checked my tv's. I have one 19" flat screen CRT TV with S-Video input and the other I think is a 36" CRT(curved convex screen) with S-Video input. I can bring either or both if we need them for the tournament. I just need to know.

I probably have a set of speakers I can bring. Nothing outstanding, but they will get the job done... Desk speakers from work.

Oh, and the CRT I'm bringing is 22" not 21.. a whole extra inch of TOASTY!

Nice... ok.. so now the question is, do I even need to bring either of these TV's I have access to? I assume we'll need one TV for the Dreamcast for SFA3 and possibly ST and MVC2.

Phil if you have room for the extra TVs, bring them just in case. Definitely need dedicated speakers for MK. Whoever is supplying the PC for it, let's try and finalize that as I'd like to go over stuff with them to make sure everything is good.

I want to be able to connect like 6 controller types so we need a hub or something. If Made In NY guys show, we need to have two 6 button sticks connected, 2 regular sticks, and two controllers. Might be a good idea to have mame saved in two dirs with seperate configs if necessary so we don't have to reconfig constantly. At NEC6 I had 4 controllers (2 different types on both sides) 2 sticks, and the KB all connected, basically just had them split down the middle so there was always an option open for whoever needed it.

Wer're definitely going to have the sticks and controllers. Between your 2 dedicated MK sticks, summoning's mk stick, summoning's SF stick, my mk/sf hybrid layout stick, and the various gamepads that I'll be bringing, we're going to have more than enough ways to play.

I would recommend that anyone who prefers the 360 pad for playing that they bring a wired 360 pad. I will have various ps2/ps1/saturn pads available for those who want them, and I may also have a ps1/ps2 stick available. Shock, you're also bringing your SF stick for the 3s tourney, right?

Summoning, can you handle a couple USB hubs?

Street Fighter Alpha 3 should be played on Street Fighter Alpha Anthology. The DC port is far from arcade perfect.

It depends if we want the SFA3 or SFA3 Upper version. I'm being told over on SRK that people prefer SFA3 to Upper, so SFA3 it's going to be.

Just make sure the 3S players are OK with FB. I know players complain about unpredictability of converter lag and as little as 1 frame of input delay based on the emulator itself. I have no problem with playing any game through an emulator when the arcade is not available, because the console versions generally never feel the same as the arcade anyway.
