Question: If you're capping the tournament at 10-12, then what exactly is the point of holding finals on another weekend? Why not just hold the tournament and finals on the same day? Is time an issue? If time isn't an issue, then I don't see the need to host finals on a different day for a small tournament (the 12 player cap).

I'm also asking because I'm interested in this, but I am also going to be heading out to San Jose for Best of the Battle III for DOA on August 3rd. And I've been planning for that tournament for weeks now. Not exactly in a position to break plans and scheduling so easily.

1337LoungeJen I just sent you my gamertag and name on your email address. Let me know once you get it.

Also, am I allowed to use my Arcade stick to the event? It's wired so there won't be any mishaps going on.

Hi! To answer your question, it is both a time issue and a programming detail. Since our tournaments are treated like live broadcasted event, people will tune in to the first weekend, determine who they're rooting for, and we'll build hype as part of our live stream all week for the finals the weekend afterward. The unsaid thing here is, 1337LoungeLive streams every day, so we work all week to inform our audience of all the upcoming events. If you tune in NOW for example (until 9 Pm PST), you'll see us chatting and gaming with Isaiah Mustafa - the Old Spice Guy.

You can absolutely bring your arcade stick!

I see, and that's understandable. But that is also unfortunate on my end since it'll interfere with another tournament I am scheduled for next weekend. I would like to go, but that time frame just doesn't help me. It would have been great to attend and knock out two different tournaments one week after another, but it's not going to happen for me.

EDIT: I'll go, lol.

This makes no sense how you are capping this game even with that explanation for the streaming schedule. So you just have another setup or two on the side and run matches in the background while streaming the highlighted matches.

Hi -- we've only got one master setup that is streaming, so everyone plays on the one giant screen and everyone's gameplay gets the audiences full attention.

Again why not get more consoles and set them up on the side? You're not helping your tournament by capping them with a lack of equipment.

1337LoungeJen Your other thread has been merged with this one. You could've posted the details of the tournament in here as well as let everyone know that there's only 2 spots left to sign up in this thread. I updated the OP with that information. It also would be nice if you could have the short list of players that will be there in the OP. Just post the gamertags so we all can know who's going to be there.

Good luck with your tournament.

Ikodomo, Harribel, Snakz and myself may be a little late due to traffic (were carpooling). Were on our way to pick up Snakz then we will be on our way.

Yeah that stuff kinda threw me off so I decided not to go. I didn't have a ride down there anyways I just wanted to know more info about it. But no offense, I was watching the stream and my main character isn't even unlock, so I'm kinda glad I didn't go.
:sarah: SARAH FTW!!!

Edit: CORRECTION! She is unlocked. Hahaha ;)

Why are people acting this way?
They are hosting tournaments and mods are in here being condescending.

Can we just pick our words a little more carefully and if you don't have anything nice or constructive to say...don't post?

Good luck to all who are participating though.

Btw, I was waiting for Lauren to say something like "I am ready." LOL but she failed me. Unless I missed it. Why you no Kasumi voice!? :(

You missed it, I got her to commentate with the voice but she is not good at commentating so it didn't last long. She was cool though.
