Post by: Cr8zyK1LL3r on February 24, 2009, 10:35:08 AM
1)      Approx how many people would you expect?
:) 10-15 people

2)      How many projectors do you require? (Max 4)
:) 1 is enough for 10-15. If we have 20+ players then maybe 2

3)      Did you want to use the back bar room?
:) Doesn't really matter.

4)      What day and start time?
:) Weekdays after 5pm OR weekend anytime

5)      How long do you plan on playing for?
:) 10-15 players = 3 hours (approximately 5 matches for everyone, 5 x 10 = 50 matches. 1 match = 3min. 50 x 3 = 150 min)
:) 20+ players = 5 hours. U do the calculation.

6)      Will you be purchasing drinks at the bar?
:) I believe some people will. Not me though.

7)      Is everyone 18+?
:) This question is stupid !!
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: Cr8zyK1LL3r on February 24, 2009, 10:43:07 AM
1 more thing !!!

ONLY DO 1 TOURNY AT A TIME !!!
Coz it's gonna waste other people time who doesn't wanna play other games.

Imagine you wanna play MVC2 but you have to wait 2 hours for everyone to finish other tourny first THEN you have 3 matches for MVC2 and finish for the day.

If you wanna have different tourny then hold it on different days (Friday this week = MVC2, Friday next week = sf4, etc....)
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: zos'la on February 24, 2009, 12:16:49 PM
sounds good,

weekends are fine.

drinks of course!!! tabs on Simon

One tourny at a time.

3-4 hours i would say for game play.. any longer I will sufficate... :P

For aucklanders weekends should be good, but for other people around NZ we will need to organize another time since they need time to organize things to get here.
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: ABC_SMN on February 24, 2009, 12:42:02 PM
I just dunno why you guys are Picking on SIMON!
He doesn't Drink. and why does he need to Shout the Tab???

Anyways....

Lets organise a Time.
For MvC2 .......... SF4 ........... TvC ...............etc

And also. Is March 13th (Friday) or 14th (Saturday) good for you all.
If we are booking it in advance its going to be cheaper.
Can anyone MAKE it? it is 3 weeks from now. SO
ASK UR BOSS OR MANAGER OR YOUR MUM please!

AND WHAT GAME ARE U KEEN!

IM in for MArvel and SF4!!!!!!!!!!! WITH JOYSTICK tho... :P
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: [NIUE] BIRRY WONG on February 24, 2009, 12:55:07 PM
The reason i said in a couple of MONTHS is that 3 weeks is barely enough time to get it sorted. At least for me, our rosters are done 3 weeks in advance. But i will look into it.
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: Cr8zyK1LL3r on February 24, 2009, 01:52:57 PM
Everyone please put ur info like this format so that it would be easier for everyone to arrange the tourny:

# number & name.
days & time
games

Example:
1. Cr8zyK1Ll3r
Any weekdays after 5pm and anytime during weekend.
SF4, MVC2, 3rd strike.

21ST Of MARCH. DONE
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: [NIUE] BIRRY WONG on February 25, 2009, 06:25:02 AM
21st of March i can work with.
Will be able to make it any time
MVC2 and SF4 for me.
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: fluxcore on February 25, 2009, 07:55:33 AM
Potentially could make the 21st of March.
I'd play anything that I've played before (does not include TvC or BlazBlue [not that BlazBlue will be an option huh])
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: Cr8zyK1LL3r on February 25, 2009, 12:03:36 PM
We are trying to arange a big tourny with prizes this time (Not some crappy casual matches).

Therefore, It's gonna disappoint some of u guys but we cannot have all the games in the tourny. So I reckon ONLY SF4 OR MVC2 coz they have the most players vote for them.

we can chip in $5-$10/player and top 3 players will get 50%, 30%, 20% of the money. Or something like that. what do u guys think ??
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: zos'la on February 25, 2009, 12:16:25 PM
SF4!!!!!
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: [NIUE] BIRRY WONG on February 25, 2009, 01:16:11 PM
Realistically I dont want to be paying $10 to have my ass handed to me at SF4.

Ill pay it to have my ass handed to me at MVC2 though. Given that the margin of ass-handing wont be as large.
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: Cr8zyK1LL3r on February 25, 2009, 01:25:53 PM
you are right Bill. Some people wouldn't pay for that price. Most of us wanna join for fun and have some friendly matches. Paying $10 just to get your ass kicked is not cool. Overall, Simon has the most chance to win the game.

To make it fair for everyone, I think we should vote for the players who has high chances of winning the tourny, and those players will need to chip in a bit more than average players. But then again, it only work for us since we know each other, doesn't work for outsiders (people from other places that we haven't played/met yet)

Well, I will let you guys decide how we r gonna run this tourny.
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: [NIUE] BIRRY WONG on February 25, 2009, 01:34:06 PM
Yea, whenever you throw money into the picture it complicates things. When i think abour it, $5 is a pretty fair entry fee IMO. And again, WHEN I THINK ABOUT IT, its worth it to chip in the $5 to promote competition.

Sorry to say one thing in my last post and then say another in this one, but like i say, money makes it more complicated. (More FUN, but more complicated :P ) Like you say, we'll see what everyone thinks, and we can work something out when we have a few more opinions.
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: zos'la on February 25, 2009, 03:27:17 PM
21st of March is fine.

But...
Can i ask how much u guys spend every week in arcades etc?
seriously i work and spend tiem with my gf, i don't play alot of games 1-2 games a day.... and in a week i would spend up to $30 dollars? or more.

this is a one time thing which includes experience and fun gameplay. You will enjoy it, meet new people from NZism and remember you won't just have one game!!!

Also we can organize casual games for those who doesn't make it through to finals, because this is a time to learn while having fun so spend it well!!

Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: [NIUE] Optimus DAVE on February 25, 2009, 03:50:54 PM
SF4 and MVC2

both games.....who cares i dont care.....just set it all up and im gonna be there playing whatever
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: iMagneto on February 27, 2009, 01:15:06 AM
casual matches, dont go finals just yet, ~ i agree with andy, get together with the new nzism members
and have a casual matches at least 2 hours or 3 then start the tournament =) hehe
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: Gino on February 27, 2009, 08:48:41 AM
21st of march would be good
later in the day is better for me.
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: zos'la on February 27, 2009, 11:04:54 AM
then we got a day.
sorted

21st of March it is.
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: Cr8zyK1LL3r on February 27, 2009, 01:30:29 PM
So we've all decided to run SF4 Tourny/casual matches on the 21st of March at RVB.
Now we just need to know how many people gonna join and how are we gonna run this.
at the moment i can only think of:
Me, ABC, zosla, TonTon, iMagneto, Ryan?, Wendy & Kandy?
So that's probably 6+. Who else gonna come on the 21st of March ?? (Bill?, Ben?, etc..)
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: zos'la on February 27, 2009, 02:21:43 PM
I'll try to get the guys from Yifans ( Mat, James, Simon(white), Kevin(ching) and any others I can find before the date.
I'll make another post for registration, please post your name there and i'll update.
Also there WIll be cost related for entry, but won't be much.
cheers.
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: Cr8zyK1LL3r on February 27, 2009, 02:35:32 PM
also, somebody bring a camera to record some matches (semi-final and final).
If there are less than 15 people, we should just do casual matches and there won't be any entry fee.
But if there are more than 15 people, running a small tournament with a little entry fee and prizes will motivate everyone. And I believe nobody want a tournament with 10 people.
What do u guys think ?
Title: Re: TOURNAMENT @ RVB EVERYONE MUST REPLIED!
Post by: zos'la on February 27, 2009, 04:08:41 PM

Thinking about travelling up from Wellington.
Not made of money (student) but flights seem pretty cheap atm, could borrow money from studylink heh.
Anyway, how long an event do you think this will be? counting casuals etc, and will not being able to bring a stick (mine are/will both be for PS3) be a problem?
