15/08/2009 - NZism's National SFIV tourney!

[fluxcore]

At the first tournament we had one projector setup for SFIV casuals. Not sure if we'll do that again, possibly. It's certainly useful to have a place that people can warm up.

That would be nice.
Anyway, are we going to do team battle for this tournament or is it another 1 on 1 tournament ??

[fluxcore]

The nationals is a 1 on 1.

I'm still debating the team tourney thing. On one hand I really want to do one, but on the other hand I really don't want to do one when some of you yifans pros stack teams and just shit on everyone else, that's going to suck.

I agree Alan, though Ben (Toomeke) suggested a pro-scrub team premise, which really could work. Though determining who's pro and who's scrub is another headache altogether lol.

Also: I wondered if it would be appropriate to post some questions regarding some of the finer details oon the upcoming tournament in a seperate threa for you organisers to answer. There's been a bit of conversation about the specifics among some of the PSN crew and it'd be good to have a Q&A thread, with your approval.

Couldn't we just have an exhibition match involving the top 4 or 8 from the tournament? Then just have a 2v2 or 4v4 match? Would be interesting to watch. Give them 10 - 15 min  to setup a game plan.

Yeah, that promotes another problem though, because the guys that play to win will still play to win in team tourney - and they won't be interested unless they can make their own teams with other people that play to win. So on one hand they don't participate, and on the other they kind of mess it up for everyone else.

Absolutely.

The best way to team up is lucky draw.

that's also the worst way. Lol
I actually don't mind doing it. We can just have some fun with the team battle. But i really don't recommend doing it for a tournament at this stage.

I would recommend random team from top 8 or 12 after finals.
That is if we have time, it would be good for spectating and give the guys another chance to show us what they got.

yeah man this way sounds good, random teams from the top finishers would be mean to watch....just depending on the time.

like as soon as the top 8 or 12 are known, just do that teams then....

plus u guys can always do team tourny at xlan lol...
