HeartNana Posted August 5, 2012 Author Posted August 5, 2012 Whoops, looks like I double posted this thread. Anyways, not sure if there's any interest here, but the main focus of the tourney is P4U, so I hope that everyone who has interest in P4U is able to come!
HeartNana Posted August 10, 2012 Author Posted August 10, 2012 (edited) Important!! Anyone who is bringing a setup, I need to know in advance that you're bringing a setup, and what game you're bringing it for. If you don't let myself, Humbag, or CurlyW know before the tournament, then we're not going to be able to give a discount, even if you have a setup the day of. Since I'm running P4U and SC5, the equipment I'll need will be: 2-3 PS3s and game for P4U, and 2-3 PS3s and game for SC5. So please bring setups, and let one of us know in advance (and what game it's going to be used for) in order to get your $5 off! Thanks! Also, there will be a side BBCSEX tournament at 8PM! $5 entry!!! Please join!!! Edited August 10, 2012 by HeartNana
