Title: Armageddon WCG Fighter Club
Post by: massi4h on August 31, 2010, 05:22:44 PM
Well, I was talking to the xLan/WCGNZ organiser yesterday and he told me that he was asked to run a WCG Fighter Club like they did in the states. He was told 4 games, but he can kinda change them a bit. They were: SSF4, T6, DOA4 and SC4. SC4 was by far the worst choice so we agreed to change it, which came to the best conclusion being MVC2 (I don't think they'd want more than one "street fighter" and probably wanna stick to xbox 360). So anyway I guess that's decided, I'll actually practice up on DOA4 cause I quite like the game. But yeah how much interest would you guys be on coming? If you prepay it's $75 and that includes Armageddon entry which is like $20 or something. Think it runs over at least 2 days and there's heaps of other tourneys going on.

so is it MvC2 only? or SSF4?
I don't think MvC2 is better choice than SSF4...but u might disagree...

Also any hint on what teh prize is like?

Post by: electric on September 01, 2010, 10:04:09 AM
Andy: It's SSF4, MVC2, Tekken 6 and DOA 4

Here's a question: Are they individual tourneys ? Or do you have to compete in all 4 ? From the blurb it sounds as though it's the latter... Paying $70 for a 3 day event to play 1 game I like and 3 games I've never touched is possibly a bit of a stretch for me personally

Post by: massi4h on September 01, 2010, 02:46:53 PM
Its just a LAN that costs $70. Generally it should be sweet to enter as many tournaments as you want, but this time around there may be a $5 fee or something for each extra tournament.

Can you watch without paying? Like, can you pay to goto Armageddon and watch any of the tourneys or nah?
Title: Re: Armageddon WCG Fighter Club
Post by: massi4h on September 01, 2010, 03:05:00 PM
Hmm, well it will be in a separate room in the venue (I'm pretty sure I know which one it will be), which you probably will need to get a pass to get in. Best to ask it on the link I gave. Armageddon closes at 6PM while this runs 24/7 as well. 
Title: Re: Armageddon WCG Fighter Club

We will have exhibition matches, and public involvement as well in matches as an encouragement to grow this community, and also to show people about competitive gaming and how it is in NZ. This is as much a promotion of sites like ON3 Network and those related to us such as Adversity Gaming as it is a LAN for lols and competitive play and fun!

We really want support to make the promotional side work as much as the getting amongst it competitive stuff.


Prizes I will update ASAP, but it is a case of pushing and poking sponsors and those who want to support us.

Sounds like they should be paying us! ahhaha
But really it's been ages since I've entered a tourney, but the only game I can really play competitively is Tekken and 75$ is pretty steep. Sooo is it worth it? Does anyone have any more info?
Title: Re: Armageddon WCG Fighter Club
Post by: massi4h on October 10, 2010, 09:54:06 AM
Yes it is cause everyone is going isn't that right? It gets you into Armageddon anyway man, plus I'm sure this will get much more T6 players than Cloudlan.

Need more hands up, cause this is gonna be pretty sweet.

OK well the LAN has been cancelled.

On3network are still having a stand at armageddon to show off competitive gaming to the public. I'll be helping out playing GH:WoR and SSF4 against people. Guys should come along.

I will be there on the Saturday. I will have to come to the SSF4 booth and see what scrubs are there.
Title: Re: Armageddon WCG Fighter Club
Post by: massi4h on October 19, 2010, 02:54:23 PM
Well you fucking better not pick Fuerte against me or people will think this game is ass :D

Also @Andy, almost nobody paid, nor did anyone show any interest. Not just here, but the CSNZ community, AVT, every other NZ gaming community. Of course they had to cancel.

Title: Re: Armageddon WCG Fighter Club
Post by: [NIUE] Optimus DAVE on October 19, 2010, 04:08:45 PM
i think it was the $70 entry fee.

i only wanted to enter 2 games and wasnt gonna spend $70 altho i know it covers entry for all 3 days.

its only $20 for entry for one day so 60+10 for gaming, kinda not keen....but nevermind, next year when im rich and have a job im gonna be first to enter everything yargghh

also i shall see you on monday mr mason and we can do some combo exhibitions and double GH guitar solos on medium for me and expert for you hahaha yargh

Title: Re: Armageddon WCG Fighter Club
Post by: massi4h on October 20, 2010, 06:15:55 PM
Well at least I know how to juggle and kinda low parry in tekken. So all those eddy scrubs won't come in thinking they're the shit (assuming they put T6 on at some point). I still suck against 10-hit string mashers lol.

Damn howd you find out about that. Fark man, Fong acted like he was giving me the 20. But it's algood i'll pay him back when i get the fundz, niggaz are dead broke round here. I will see if i can get his bank acc and pay him weekly, so i can stop being called Fongs bitch. It doesn't sound az good as Fong's pimp. Which is what i'm used to being called.

I will money match some kid for his lunch money, or some homeless guy for the coat that keeps him warm at night.

Shot for giving us a ride to Armageddon today Mason bro. Was pretty mean day. Mason the lost cunt lost his dvd, guttered.

Tekken beasts was beasting everybody lol. Didn't wana embarass myself ay. But i really wanted to be the beast there and waste some OTHER scrubs. Pump it up comp was hype as fuck yo. That big dude can jump around pretty quick and nimble ay. That game should be called Happy Feet it up. That Asian guy with the glasses had badd swagg too haha.

Cosplay peeps looked badd. There was this badd Ryu there that had the same bag and everything mane. He was pulling off the mean stances in the Kamehameha comp too. Even done a bad Akuma ending stance haha. But the Kakashi cosplay guy did the best fucking kamehameha ever mane. Backflip with breakdancing and that ninja sign language shit too.

Dayam , had a mean picture with this badd promo bitch too. Had her leg up on my croth and my hand rubbing that tight ass too haha. Even Mason got one lol. But she's just standing there cos she knows he likes guys lool.

3rd equal in guitar hero comp, kicked out by Mason, damn it. LOL, i quit halfway through. 4 people entered haha.

Animal fucking Kaizer dawwgg. Hype as fuck matches. SO much strategy involved in that game. Mashing the shit outta a button that does nothing is gdlk in my books haha.
