NORCAL INSTALL! [Main Information and Ranbat Update Thread]

At this point it looks like BB is neither going to be recorded OR streamed. I highly doubt GG players have the patience to switch off setups, and even then you'd have to put BB in standard on a tube TV. I doubt bb players would like that.

Actually, I am going to try to play ALL of my tournament matches off of the HD TV there. It feels way off to me. If we had our set up on a tube, it would solve all "lag ghost stories" anyway.

Actually, you want to drive in early. You know why? Because then you can practice for 4/5 hours while we wait for everyone to show up then start the tournament like 3/4 hours after it was supposed to start!

Anyway I'm out's tomorrow also, got work so I'd rather get GUARANTEED money. Have fun~

Everything is set tomorrow, the room should be available and Displays hopefully won't be a problem, as I assume that there will be enough that isn't listed on the pre-registration sheet.

My only concern is PS3s with BB on them, if you have a PS3 do bring it for the TVs.

Allow me to clear up this misunderstanding. As Spirit said earlier, at the last NCI all games were streamed (Melty Top 4, GG/BB Top 8, and various games in between) and archived.

Since the PS3 is capable of using the older PS2 cable, it's possible just to switch the cables from one system to another to switch games. At the last NCI I had planned to switch between each game in order to get as many high-profile matches in as possible to make the stream more fun to watch. Unfortunately, due to how the brackets were spread out according to Aginor, the majority of those matches for BB were in the top 8 - which is why there weren't any pre-top 8 matches on stream.

The only issues that arose from playing BB on the tube TV we had were:

1) "It hurts my eyes."

and 2) If, by any chance, there was any lag on the HDTV they were originally using, they had become used to it already. So taking that chance in the top 8 matches was somewhat of a concern.

However, we remedied this by just running a video cable to the HDTV as well so they could just pick whichever TV they liked.

tl;dr: We did exactly the opposite of what I just quoted at the last NCI.

It's starting to look like I might not make it to this, as the person who was going to give me a ride there is being a scrub and not picking up their phone.

Unfortunately, I will be extremely late. It's almost 1:30 PM now and I haven't left my house due to unavoidable circumstances. I probably won't show up until around 4:30.
