Vancouver Street Battle 3 (Espot/Xbox360)

GET HYPE

VSB is back!!

Vancouver Street Battle** VOLUME 3** June 18th, 2011 (SSF4-AE Tournament on XBOX360)

That's right guys, it's been a while since we had a street fighter tourny, so well.... this time we're bringing you another one! This time with a few new shizzles to keep things fresh!

New shizzles include:

- This time we will be running on the will be freshly released (for consoles) SSF4 ARCADE EDITION. That's right, you will get to play allt he new characters, with the new balancings and such.

- RANDOM TEAM BATTLE. We've decided just for this time to go fully random on teams, that means everybody who joins will be randomly placed into teams. We're doing this just so mix things up, and try avoiding having purposly "stacked" teams. Who knows? it could be fun!

- BONUS PRIZES for random draw (thanks to our sponsor Canadian Joysticks LTD.). This time Canadian Joysticks will be on site for all your stick needs, and they are also donating a Qanba stick that could be won by ANYONE who participates in the tourny!

Ok anyways, I'm sure most of you already knows what to do but I'll briefly go over these anyways...

PRE-REGISTRATION METHOD:
-Please email to vanstreetbattle@gmail.com with your NAME, DESIRED GAMERTAG, or PM me. I will give you a confirmation reply once you're on the list. (PLEASE DO PRE-REG IF YOU'RE CERTAIN YOU'RE GOING TO JOIN, this will save me ALOT of time. THANKS!) **Please specify its for VSB Vol.03 so we don't get you mixed up with the old emails from the first VSB!** YOU WILL SAVE $5 BY PRE-REGISTRATING RATHER THAN DOING IT ON THE DAY OF!!

FORMAT
Super Street Fighter 4 - Arcade Edition (Xbox 360)
Singles / Teams (3 vs 3)

Event and Venue Fees:
$10 Venue Fee IF YOU PRE-REGISTER
$15 Venue Fee if you register the day of @ the door
*You only have to pay venue fee once, even if you're participating in both Singles and Teams*
The venue is in the middle of Richmond, it has a huge open lot with lots of free parking, and skytrain accessable. So getting there shouldn't be much of a hassle for most people. There are also TONS of food choices around the area for when you get hungry*
$10 Entry Fee for Singles and $15 ($5 each) for Teams
(Entry Fees goes towards the pot for top 3 winners)

Tournaments

Main Event - Singles:
Winners and Losers Brackets, Double Elimination
Each match is 2 out of 3, Winners / Losers / GrandFinals are 3 out of 5
In a set, winner keeps same character, losers can switch if they like.
If player pauses during a match or stops the game play, the opposing player has 3 choices: Play the match from the beginning, take a free win, let it rock. (If pauses during an Ultra animation it's ok.)

Side Event - 3 vs 3 Teams Battle:

Winners and Losers Brackets
Double Elimination (1 set)
Random Teams, just like I've explained up top. We will have a sign up sheet for everybody who wants to play teams and it will be the VERY FIRST THING that we will need you guys to fill out and get taken care of since we will need to randomly put y'all into teams. Mkay?

PRIZE DISTRIBUTION:
Top 3 payout
Singles - 60/30/10
Teams - 70/20/10
Random Draw Prize (Qanba PS3 Stick). This could go to ANYONE who participates. SO STAY TILL THE END!!

SCHEDULE:
Starts at 1pm, goes on till the evening, until 9pm'ish, depending on numbers of participants. We have a decent amount of volunteer workers so we will be trying to keep things running smoothly as much as possible.

A few other things,
Sorry guys but theres a no outside food or drinks agreement with the venue, they sell drinks and snacks at the counter at reasonable costs. Just like last time, we will have the Japanese Ramen and Sushi trailors outside the Venue (which are VERY DELICIOUS)and there are also lots of restaurants around the area that's within walking distance.

Bring your own sticks! Or if you don't have an Xbox I'm sure there'll be someone who'll be willing to lend you their sticks for a match or something.

That's all the info for now, you may contact me via email or leave a msg on the facebook page if you would like to pre-register, or have any questions.

Volunteers
Oh and we can never have enough volunteer workers! Please do contact me if you're interested in volunteering as a helper on the day of the tourny!
Cheers,
Justin

My comments: don't be a cheap fucker, and just come out and play some video games. Were all really nice people. We usually get 50 people a tourney but the more the more hype it is!

How common are tourney's like this? I've been trying to get back into fighting games, and am jealous of the scene down in Cali. What about MVC3 tourneys?

play AE.

Also just from what i've read on SRK, is marvel is less and less hype. I knew it was gonna happen. any game with a large learning curve like that always happens.

I never found MvC to have a big learning curve. I got a lot better at it for like the one month I've played it than like the past 6 months I've been playing SSFIV. First time getting into the fighting game genre though.

I'll be going and will be bringing my streaming set up ...which hopefully I'll be able to test beforehand with actual people playing.
