Big ups to the organizers, sponsors & everyone that turned up and competed on the day! Was awesome to see how everyone has improved and that is a strong community vibe out there.
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
I'm personally stoked to have placed 17 equal (be it with 6 others but still)out of 47 fightas.
The highlights of the day for me were James C.Viper battles (mad respect for performing under pressure), seeing everyone's custom sticks and watching the finals.
I look forward to next years event and up coming Jam sessions...
Lenny -we didn't get our match bro....but you know I'm down.
Keep training fullas...come see me down at Yifans for some hado-action....
Currently I'm thinking the next nationals will be earlier next year, to make sure we get an idea of who should go to OzHadou for their tourney next year :)
But yeah, an event like that is made by the participants, so the biggest ups go to all you guys :) Also really glad we had basically no entrant-caused problems (no stick abuse or people causing a stink) so that helped a lot.

Does that mean next year we will be running multiple tourneys?
HD:Remix and Blazblue!
Currently I'm thinking Tekken 6, SFIV, BlazBlue, HD:Remix and maybe MvC2.
However, don't ask me how on earth I intend to run 4 or 5 games at a time, I'll have to muse upon that one for a while.

I wouldn't enter that one but would love to watch!

No, you drop the atomic knowledge bomb!
I think SF4 and T6 are probably going to be defnites, since they have the biggest following atm, but it may not be worth looking into many of the others depending on the size of the crowd. Though the other option of course is doing it over a couple of days, but HOLY FUCK youre going to be nackered after that shit.

The reality is that to do this type of event across multiple games it will HAVE to be done over 2 days. Its gonna take phat sponsorship and huge help from the community ie: donating hardware for use.

Awesome our own Mini EVO ;D
its a big step to do all those games...
What have I done to start all this lol :P
Probably easiest to run it like SBO - one event at a time - maybe over a 2 day period. But retain double elimintation (if time permits). Also keen for character locks - but its not big deal if counter picks are allowed.
Do all the pools on Saturday - then have the Quarters / Semi's etc Sat night or Sunday.
Anyway plenty of time to think about it :)
I would rather drop back to 1 game per match than drop down to single elim...

HAHA he failed to tell me this. "Don't wanna be blues bro, but you just got smashed by someone who doesn't even have the game" I should probably not give him shit though cause after a week Ioane will probably be giving me the smasher ><
I enjoyed the the 3 game/best of 3 rounds matches with double elimination, it worked realll well and everyone got heaps of game. What we need to keep in mind is to have all the statiosn running up to quarter finals then have them running on the main screen or else we will run out of time like the previous one.
1 game/ best of 7 rounds sounds good :D with double elimination world work too.
signle elimination is just lame :D
