HealingCare Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 So anybody want to team up with me? Or can we do teams on the spot?
Dakanya Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 We can do teams on the spot, I'm looking to team with someone from my local area but not sure if he wants to enter or not. I recommend making your team on Friday and then you'll be ready to enter on Saturday.
Dakanya Posted July 4, 2012 Author Posted July 4, 2012 Update: We'll be taking signups on Friday so we can get an idea of how big the bracket will be. I don't think we'll get that many teams but if the situation calls for it, we may want to do the first round of matches or something on Friday. Also if anyone can bring a monitor or two, that would be very helpful. We're close to having 8 full setups at EVO...

theWHITEdevil Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 I'd like to play, but I don't have a teammate and I'm not very good. Either way, I'm sure I'll see you guys there. Will there be casuals on friday?
Munsu Posted July 5, 2012 Posted July 5, 2012 Itemnazo can't make it on Saturday due to work so that leaves one less monitor/ps3/game and me without a partner D:
BakCh01 Posted July 6, 2012 Posted July 6, 2012 I got a PS3 + game that I could bring. So we just need another monitor now. *edit* For DLC units I'm missing blue destiny and zeong but i have enough points to buy one of them.

Don't worry about the dlc we have a bunch of setups with dlc anyways.
BakCh01 Posted July 6, 2012 Posted July 6, 2012 Thanks. I think we'll need it since we're down one. Don't worry about the dlc we have a bunch of setups with dlc anyways. Sounds good. Around what time are you guys going to set up? I don't want lug a PS3 + stick around all day =P

Can I still register for the game? If that's ok, I'd glad to come. I may bringing my PS3 w/game, but looks like we need more monitors?
sakabato24 Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 What are we going to do for those people that don't have a partner?

brett_ Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 (edited) Just got back from Evo! First things first: We had a full 16 team bracket, for a total of 32 entrants!. Here are the results: Results (Name, Players, Suit Comps): 1: Our Swords Combine (Tenkai, Brett) (Master/Susanoo, Master/Forbidden) 2: Merc-a-lot (Peter, Brian) (Qant/God, Freedom/God, Freedom/Turn-X) 3: Manz (Tim, Calvin) (Tallgeese/Infinite Justice, Sazabi/RX-78) 4: laughing raven (YAT, dakanya) (V2/Heavyarms, Blue Destiny/Turn-X, Tallgeese/Turn-X) 5: Cosmic Bulgoogi (Myung, Munsu) (Hi-v/Gunner Zaku) 5: nameless (zack, ThePhantomnaut) (Cherudim/Tank, Z/Tank) 7: paper & plastic (Wild7, Jon) (Zaku Kai/Sazabi) 7: NeoGAF (Shouta, Shingin) (DX/Delta Plus, Sinanju/Delta Plus) 9: ryuugu komachi (kozu, Blue Link) (Full Cloth/ZZ, Full Cloth/Blue Frame) 9: Mobile Riders (Diego, Jose) (RX-78/Raphael) 9: The Braves (Joel, Reyn) (Puru/Sazabi) 9: The '90's (Tallgeese/God, Tallgeese/RX-78) 13: William (???/???) 13: The Specials (Jeff, Avi) (Unicorn/Arche) 13: Outer Heaven (Alex, Smiley) (Tallgeese/Ez-8) 13: Vanilla Brown (Gunner Zaku/Alex, Gunner Zaku/Zaku Kai) The Bracket: http://i.imgur.com/BxfFV.gif Match Footage: The finals (top 6) were streamed and archived, and can be seen on http://twitch.tv/xiei or on my own stream at http://twitch.tv/thebrett . There's a ton of dead time, disconnects, and stream failure, so I will also be restreaming a live commentary review of the entire tournament on my own stream (http://twitch.tv/thebrett) so those of you interested in watching the blow by blows can look forward to that some time this week or the next (will update when schedule is confirmed). Due to the poor mic quality, we simply saved the replays and were planning on doing commentary afterwards. Since I was going to record some commentary, I might as well stream it and make it live. We'll be uploading the matches individually from my archives, so definitely check those out on my youtube (http://youtube.com/unlimitedbrettworks) when I can upload them. If possible, we might just upload the actual replay files themselves for anyone interested. Special Thanks - I'll skip the obligatory and give some thanks to silent vigilantes that secretly helped this event go down: Shoutouts to Fred aka PhaethonH for saving EXVS @ Evo from certain doom, patching our tourney setup with Fred Magic, and constantly monitoring the network all day. You're seriously the best. A billion thanks again to James aka Xie for: Letting us use his network card to stream finals, letting us use his stream so we had 1000+ viewers on this game, fitting us in his stream schedule to begin with, letting me abuse the hell out of his megaphone at the expense of his own voice, and having infinite patience with the amount of d/c's we had forcing us to go behind schedule. On that note, shoutouts to the BB community for bearing with the delayed BB stream, and shoutouts to Dippy and the Melty community for running a clean fast tournament so we could have time on stream. Thanks to Munsu for being a champ with equipment and setups, and to TheWhiteDevil for helping out with moving equipment. Thanks to all the players who had to wait forever due to disconnects and only having one setup. Especially team nameless! Thanks to the Marvel players stationed 2 feet away from us for bearing with me screaming into a megaphone commentating on flying robots shooting eachother with laser guns for 10 hours. Thanks to all the people behind the tables who tolerated me dashing and stepping over all their equipment to harass visit James Thanks to all the stream monsters viewers for the stream quality feedback and patience with disconnects etc. Personal shoutouts: I'd like to personally thank the two teams from Vancouver, Canada: Team Manz and Team Merc-a-lot. Thanks for coming out and flying all the way to Vegas to support the scene. I recommend checking their channel out on http://www.twitch.tv/bakch01 if you're interested in watching more competitive EXVS play! Shoutouts to them getting both their teams into top 3! Shoutouts to that awesome mom of one of the entrants who kept taking pictures and cheering on the players - any pictures people took that they want to share, feel free! Shoutouts to all the international players who came - you know who you are! Shoutouts to suicide kills, losing games to friendly fire pizzas, side subs, blind picks, double melee, self-cut Raider Gundams, and passion fruit tea Shoutouts to Tenkai for being a giant glowing distraction an amazing partner Shoutouts to the never-ending second match vs team Manz Thanks again guys, I had way too much fun helping making this tournament happen. Full Boost Evo tournament next year? Let's do it! Edited July 9, 2012 by brett_
Munsu Posted July 9, 2012 Posted July 9, 2012 Shoutouts to everyone persevering though the disconnects, delays, sore feet, and hunger during the 2 days. Shoutouts to Gamecenter and NorCal crew for bringing all those equipment from so far away to make this event possible. Shoutouts to Kozu for the free silky smooth nsfw wall scrolls and Higurashi games. Special thanks to Myung for teaming up with me last minute. And lastly shoutouts to Brett for all the rage stories during K-BBQ.
sakabato24 Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 Guys got the matches that were recorded up on YouTube yet?
brett_ Posted July 10, 2012 Posted July 10, 2012 Guys got the matches that were recorded up on YouTube yet? The audio quality on the records is kind of bleh, so we're going to be uploading the replays (they all got saved) after we do live commentary over them. expect that post-event review commentary to happen live on either this Saturday or POSSIBLY tomorrow. They'll then be uploaded to YT.
Kitsune Beau Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 This tourney was the only one I was salty about losing at EVO (from team The 90's). I'll be putting more time into this and hoping for some runback matches.

Kitsune Beau Posted July 11, 2012 Posted July 11, 2012 *Laugh* Was fun play with you on a team bro. :D Yeah! It was great meeting everyone! This was my first EVO and hopefully I'll get to see people again! :3
brett_ Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 my ps3 power cable got lost somewhere between evo and japan, so the full replay uploads will be delayed. Hoping for getting them out by this weekend or mon/tues at the latest.
Munsu Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 I remember Dakanya saying there was an extra power cable when we were cleaning up.
