Best Bout Posted December 4, 2010 Posted December 4, 2010 (edited) What The Best Bout Gaming and the Portland area group are proud to announce Throwdown Tuesdays, a public casuals event dedicated to SSF4 and other games. This is something the gang has been working on for a minute now, we are happy to finally kick it off. This is to be a weekly session at a local cafe in the heart of downtown Portland. We'll have public casual stations setup for SSF4, MVC2, SFIIHDR, Tekken 6, and BlazBlue and other games as players demand. If you are showing up specifically for a game that is not SSF4, it would be wise to let us know ahead of time. Ranking system We will be operating an open ranking system at these events based on the Game Spot Versus League in Japan. When you arrive at the venue you may enter a queue to play ranking matches at the designated station. 4-6 people from the queue will play at the station "arcade style" - that is, winner stays, losers goes to back of line - and count there win-loss difference. If any player reaches a positive win-loss difference of +3, they will rank up. If any player reaches a negative win-loss difference of -3, they will rank down (unless they are at the lowest rank). For any given ranking station, only players of the same rank will play. Thus, if any players in the rotation ranks up or down, they will give up there spot and another player from the queue will join the rotation. We will run stations for various ranks as the rank distribution among attendees necessitates. Each player-character pair is considered a unique entrant in the ranking system. When Every Tuesday from 7PM to 3AM Cancelations: none at the moment! See you next Tuesday! Where Purest Cafe, 115 SW Ash St. Suite 100, Portland Oregon 97204 Who Fighting game players of all ages.
