Prizes will be cash split 60/30/10 amongst the top 3 for each game.  The overall pot will be divided amongst the games depending on the number of entrants.  As sponsors are brought into the fold, sponsor prizes will be allocated at the discretion of the judges in the form of spot prizes.

Controllers and joysticks will be available for those that don't have one or can't bring their own.  But it is reccomended that you bring your own.

See you guys there!

Hell no. That's exactly the sort of commitment we like around here - it's bound to be a great weekend...

Speaking of which - I think I read this somewhere, but I may be imagining things... all finals will be run on the Sunday, and pool/bracket matches will be on the Saturday - correct ?

Is this how all the games will be run ? or are some of the smaller tourneys expected to run on the one day ?

All finals will be running on the Sunday + Casuals if we have the setup/schedule to do so.  This is to help us with time issues.  Last nationals was quite a long day and that was only ONE game.  This time we have 5 games running over a few setups.

Speaking of which, we need to get that schedule down Lenny.

Heres the deal then guys.  Marvel will be run in Dreamcast, as It looks like ill be able to source at least 4 DC ASCII Sticks.

Bare in mind that this is tentative for now, but I will confirm on Monday

Haha around these parts it's wrong NOT to. Marc flies up from CHCH for events (sadly not the Nationals though) and I already have at least one Wellingtonian staying at my place for Nationals.
