Saturday definitely. NEC was on Sunday last year and the year before because there weren't enough people on Saturday. I'm trying to get the focus on Saturday for anyone going. I am pretty sure I will only be there one day.
 
I'll be down saturday 100%... what time saturday we gonna start?

And also I'm pretty sure I might have a TV and xbox 360 I can bring :) . I'll know 100% closer to the end of the week.

Alright man keep me posted. I would like to get the tournament up and running by 6PM. Earlier if possible. We might have to add entrants as they show up which won't be too terrible so long as we don't get through the second round.
 
Yea we should start it asap on saturday. If we have 2 setups though it will probably work alot better... but wont have enough arcade sticks for 2 full setups but still. I might be down realy early, like 10am if people will be there to play that early.

Good luck Frank, Shock. I wish I could have gone but there were way too many contributing factors to prevent me from going.

I'll be there around noon I think. I don't know if I can get there any earlier. If we have two set ups, one will be for casuals and one for tournament. Casuals will have to be held on gamepads while tournament is going on unless people are using pads. It's going to be a little annoying but I can't afford that many sticks right now. I think we're only going to have the two sticks and then whenever the stick taker leaves, it's down to one stick and pads.

We will start the tournament as soon as 16 people are present and if more show up we can plug them into it. Too often tournaments get started very late and it's annoying because people have to leave. There's money involved here so I don't want anyone missing out.
 
Shock if you can throw together a third stick for me, since I think your building them now??? I'll bring the money for it at the tournament. :D

Either way it sounds good, I'll be there at noon as well then on saturday.
 
hmmm well ill be there for sure shock , so ur gunna start it on saturday? sweet, ill be there from the start i gotta play in Cvs2 anyway so =D.if u still need a place to stya in shock just message me dude, we should have enough room atleast for 1 person that i know. but anyway good luck to everyone and see u all there

I am not making them yet, and I'm pretty sure it'll be just the two sticks until whoever wins the stick takes it home. I will eventually have two sticks I believe, I don't know when, I'm actually running into issues with my old one now, it's usable, but gets annoying for charging moves like Kano's cannonball and Jax's ground pound.

I talked to Lex today, he will not be attending, which also means Moe and Thrower will not be attending.

I'm going to be setting up something with Lex in the near future though otherwise. We will get in some matches and get them recorded.

Busta, I'm going to have to beat the bronchitis out of you. IN THE RING.
 
ok I cant bring my xbox360, my brother is a dickhead and wont lemme take it since we split it when we bought it. He's a fuckin jerkoff too if I might add, hes gonna be at work all day long and cant even play it... but I gotta respect him.

I can bring a TV I think, my buddy Dave said he has one I can bring if someone can bring an xbox 360. Can anyone??? only having one console is gonna suck with like 20 peeps rotating. Someone man up!!!
