Take up the Gauntlet - November 7th, 2009 - Cincinnati, OH

This will be ARCADE LEGENDS' biggest tournament to date. 6 fighting games (including 2 on arcade machines), 1 pinball score attack and 1 arcade score attack. I'd also like to start a running pre-reg list. Please post your name/location/games if you know you are coming. It would help me figure out if I need more setups. If you'd like to pay in advance, we will have a paypal link on the website (link will also be here when I get it up), you can pay over the phone (513-874-8766) by credit card or in person with cash or credit. Now the details:

When: Saturday, November 7th, 2009 - The arcade opens and registration begins at 10am and ends for each game 15 minutes before the start time. If you will be late, you MUST call ahead so we can get you on the brackets.

Games:

Street Fighter IV ($10 entry) - starts at 12:30pm

Soul Calibur IV ($5 entry) - starts at 1pm

All games will be played on PS3 or arcade machines. We have one PS3 stick that is Sanwa/Seimitsu modded for anyone to use and we may get another before the tournament so don't let not having a PS3 stick keep you from coming. There are plenty of generous people who will lend out stick as well.

The 2 SCORE ATTACK tournaments are absolutely FREE and there will be a prize or prizes for the winner of each ($25-$50 value). The rules are simple. Get a high score, submit it to Jesse or Amanda. Score attack ends at 11pm. You must have your score submitted by then. You cannot hog the game all day. Play once and then give someone else a chance. You can try as many times as you'd like as long as you are giving everyone a chance to play. The games are:

there's no need for any rules in Slash since there's nothing that needs to be banned in the arcade version. just 2/3, double elim. I don't play stick, so I don't think I'll make the trip. good luck, though.

Will Slash be run on a machine with American or Japanese sticks? And will the buttons be reconfigured correctly? I think you said you need a new BIOS for the other machine to run it, so I curious.

I got the new BIOS today, and it is installed. I played SLASH today so it is good to go. It will be American sticks, the Competition sticks that are currently in the arcade machine. The buttons will be configured correctly. It will just be on the arcade cab. There won't be any space for the console version as we will be running SFIV and SCIV on all available stations.

Due to lack of interest and in some cases disdain, GGXXS has been removed and ST put in its place. I will have a real deal money tournament for GGAC in December, along side BB and maybe some Melty Blood on the side.

Sounds sweet, that's pretty much my dream lineup minus Arcana Heart.

I forgot about AH. I'll add that as well. I felt like there was one more game the Dustloop crowd played but I couldn't think of it. MB and AH are both only on PS2 correct? Which version of those games is best for tournament? Would it even be worth getting MB on arcade for the tournament or would everyone prefer just play it on console? I know for sure I can't afford AH on arcade. I've tried to bid on it before and it usually goes way out of my price range. Anyone want to come up with a good name for the tournament? I don't know much lingo for the GG, BB, MB, AH games so post up some suggestions. Also, can someone give me the tournament rules for MB and AH please?

Since the AH2 PS2 port is garbage, I guess if you were going to run it you would just use Arcana Heart Full, unless people REALLY want to play AH2. I'm not sure how many people in the area even play Arcana Heart so it might not be worth doing, but then again, a tournament with just a few people takes little time/effort to run so leaving it in might not be a big deal anyway. Melty Blood Actress Again just came out on ps2, and it includes an "original" mode (the US community standard) which is not available on an arcade machine. Practically no one in the US has access to a cabinet anyway. Also, there are a few unlockable characters, I don't know how many people actually play as them but having access to save data for the game would probably be a good idea. Rules (edit: I checked the SRK threads for these games so these rules should be accurate. it's up to you if you want to make the finals best 3/5 or whatever): MBAA: Archetype Earth is banned. Best 2/3 rounds, best 2/3 matches. Loser may switch character and moon style, winner must keep their character but may change moon style. Original mode. Arcana Heart: Best 2/3 rounds, best 2/3 matches. Loser may switch character/arcana. Winner must keep their character but may change arcana. Vanilla AH characters are banned, AH Full only. No banned arcanas.

Not sure how many puzzle fans are in the Dustloop crowd, but I added Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo arcade to the lineup of tournament games. $2 entry. Winner Takes All

Needs Puyo Puyo. I'll probably try to enter Tekken or something. I was more excited when Guilty Gear was going to be a part of the tournament.
