He probably knew theres no one here from NP. Thats a mish for a free-king tourney.

I'm gonna go read to see if anyones going.

Yeah, despite the fact that several of us said we would go to NP to help him out with the tourney. Why bother mentioning it here huh? Waste of time.

Actually, I can... Not to rag on this Mark Charteris guy too much, but he didn't seem like he wanted to take much of the advice given to him from a lot of the guys here... We'll see how well he goes with the (especially) short notice and lack of community down there.

Its all a learning experience for everyone trying to run something.  Im sure therell be plenty of other chances for us to go there and play if there is a scene.  Plus we shouldn't judge him when we don't know the full story.  There may be a reason why it has ended up like this.  As far as I'm concerned, at least it's something... which is better than nothing.

Just understood everyone's reactions. As just read this thread:

http://nzism.alphaism.com/forum/index.php/topic,718.0.html

What is everyone's feelings on other cities' players joining in on regional tournaments? In Auckland they called it the Nationals so that is pretty much an invite to all other cities and it would be bizarre if there were anything Auckland exclusive as Fluxcore (a  Hamiltonian) is usually one of the key organizers/promoters.

I do remember there was some talk of drawing the line when someone mentioned Humanbomb, an accomplished Australian player was to make a trip to compete in our National Tournament but then again King Picollo who is now based in Oz was ok to compete. (although Ioane was a familiar face to those in the older NZ/Auckland Street Fighter scene.)
I have this idea that New Plymouth would not want Aucklanders dominating their tournament. I'm sure this wouldn't be the reason that this Mark organizer didn't post tournament dates here but maybe it might be for the best that their first intro to a tournament build there own scene first. It may be a bit overwhelming going from nothing to suddenly having Jo blow Naki face off against a tournament-win starved Kevin's Gief.

Mean bro , congrats J po for taking it out bro, i wana see that shit. Any vids.

Nah Mark said he wanted us there to motivate his scene on getting better, and the more people there , would create hype and get more people into the game.

Good Stuff Mark, good to see it went well.
Title: Re: NEW PLYMOUTH TOURNEY
Post by: HoneyBadger on November 16, 2009, 08:01:11 AM
The thing with Humanbomb was the prize that we were giving away. It'd be kinda gay to have "NZism Champion Humanbomb" on a stick lol. Apart from that I'm pretty sure the majority of people would've liked him to waste us all and teach us some shit.
Title: Re: NEW PLYMOUTH TOURNEY
Post by: zos'la on November 16, 2009, 09:22:54 AM
it was only the title that was the issue as it was intended for NZ champ.
Though if Humnbomb did make it to our nationals the decision was the title was to change to something such as trans tasman champ or whatever, wasn't much of an issue tbh instead I would of been 1xxxxxxx hyper if he would of made it. It will mean we will get to see the best of what Australia have to offer. But due to personal reasons, he couldn't make it which was a bummer.

From a personal perspective, if there was a tournament for street fighter I would think there shuold be no restrictions for entry unless you entoxicated or something out of the ordinary or you set firm rules that ONLY NZ'ders may enter or something liek that, then its a different story. but on our case we did not have such a rule pointed out in the first place.
Title: Re: NEW PLYMOUTH TOURNEY
Post by: Gino on November 16, 2009, 09:33:51 AM
Way off topic, but I think the next tournament should be anyone (outside of NZ) should enter. I would hate to go to ozhadou nationals or evo and have them say "Na bro, your not from here. You can't enter."

For what it's worth, my involvement in no way means any event must be more than just Auckland. I'd be more than happy to come up to run a tourney if it means someone like Lenny could enter rather than have to sit on the sideline.

The eventual decision was to let anyone who wanted to enter, however since we were doing physical prizes rather than cash, there was no real interest in Australians coming (other than those who are really NZers anyway!)

more than accurate, I hated teh fact that organizers had to be left out of the tournament, this was on thing that disappointed me the most. The rpize wasn't much of an issue as humanbomb really wanted to have a go at us. I actually trained really hard for this in expecting him to turn up :( but then his flight was cancelled on the last week :(

That's really a shame. I'm sure he was just as disappointed and was training just as hard to fight against you too.

Weazzy & Andy would need to train up at a few blow sessions before the 3-way though.

whats with the 3 way thing?
I've already proved my point during the last session to weavy, he knows exactly where he stands.

And yes From teh Vids I've seen Humanbomb playing, I can't say I can beat him, but I would definitely give him a hard time and I won't go down easily.

training all that time before the national was a sort of respect for humanbomb as I wouldn't want him to see us as a no challenge country and show him we got what it takes to take them down if they don't take us seriously.

You didnt use Cammy on me bwoi. I didnt take those games seriously either. My mains worse than he was the first grind session, and got perfected by Mason lol.

You got me heaps with a stupid jump in hk with Sakura that i thought was a ambiguous crossup, then when Jack was like bro that never crossups i was like ohhh fucking shit.

Your still good though dont get me wrong, your just a homo about it, it's allgood though, i'm not as shit as you must think i am too.But w/e it doesnt bother me.

Exactly. Watching him and playing him are 2 different ball games. He might see your playstyle, adapt to it, and totally wipe the floor with you. You cant know, and you can barely even GUESS until youve actually had a match.

Yes that's right. I just think you have lost perspective a little bit (Zosla).
