Hypermarth Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 Hurray :D, I'll be sure to show up to this instead of TFC... it would be much easier than a 13 hour drive. Though if I can find a way to make that work I might do that too.
konkrete Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Schedule is missing AH3. Hopefully I'll be able to make it out! Also you should make a FB event asap, although I imagine you're waiting for Big E to announce the qualifiers
Chris Chaos Posted July 29, 2013 Author Posted July 29, 2013 Thanks konkrete, AH3 has been properly added to the schedule. Also, I was waiting on confirmation about some information that I'm missing. Once I get that together, I will be making a FB event.
GGA soonk Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Signed up here on behalf of the GGA crew. Any chance the NRS games(mk+injustice) can be ran on PS3? We are able to provide setups if that's a concern.
Chris Chaos Posted July 29, 2013 Author Posted July 29, 2013 (edited) Yes, MK and Injustice will be ran on PS3 and yes, please bring set ups; it is encouraged to do so and we would be greatly appreciated it if you were able to do so. EDIT: A lot of changes have been made to the first post. Since this is a qualifier for The Fall Classic, we needed to add the main games of that event in the line up so things have been shuffled around. Be sure to look at what has been changed! As stated before, if things change around, a follow up post will be made and the first post will have the changes within it. Edited July 29, 2013 by Shinsyn
GGA soonk Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Ok, awesome, thanks. Will you guys have any setups already available for us, and is there a certain number you're aiming for? This way I can try to rally up whatever I can from the guys.
wiredgod Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Yes, MK and Injustice will be ran on PS3 and yes, please bring set ups; it is encouraged to do so and we would be greatly appreciated it if you were able to do so.

Shin, could you try to get this info out to surrounding states and try to get them involved in coming? Hopefully we can create some hype for the event. For the record, I'm willing to house a person or two if need be.
Chris Chaos Posted July 30, 2013 Author Posted July 30, 2013 UPDATE: Facebook Event has been created, check out the first post to view details and confirm you're going!

We are able to provide setups if that's a concern. Hey soonk, we definitely need setups/monitors/power strips if possible, and games obviously. I made an event thread on TYM as well.
miller483 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Currently planning things out, I should be able to go though!
Chris Chaos Posted August 2, 2013 Author Posted August 2, 2013 Expect changes to the schedule, things are happening that will change things around. I will update the thread by the time the weekend is over.
Chris Chaos Posted August 4, 2013 Author Posted August 4, 2013 Updates and changes have been added to the first post. Please make sure to view the lineup.
Callisto Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Shin you got VSav in there twice, scrap it from the 10pm slot.
Chris Chaos Posted August 6, 2013 Author Posted August 6, 2013 Thanks for the heads up. Corrections have been made and the Facebook Event has been updated.
Callisto Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 (edited) Injustice is banned I'll look at what the current standards are, but I don't believe it'll be anything away from basic rules, afaik there's no popular softbans going on atm Edited August 7, 2013 by Callisto
Heroic_Legacy Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 The reason I asked that is because the entire community is split on 2/3 or 3/5 or what stage rules are. Stages mean a ton in the game, and the developers came out as saying the game should be played as a 3/5 game despite everyone doing 2/3 so far. No place in America is an Injustice ruleset actually set in stone :| It's super complicated and annoying.
Callisto Posted August 8, 2013 Posted August 8, 2013 Likely 2/3, I'll need to research the stages a bit. The game does move along fairly quickly, but I'm not sure if it's really 3/5 quickly.
Chris Chaos Posted August 8, 2013 Author Posted August 8, 2013 Hero, if you'd like to bring up some points or issues at the next gathering, please do so. I don't follow Injustice like that but, if you and or anyone from GGA would like to hold a discussion on rules for the game, I'm all ears.
Tiggy Posted August 19, 2013 Posted August 19, 2013 (edited) I have a couple questions. Posting from my phone at work while I'm on break because I haven't had a chance to do any planning today: 1) Is there going to be a tourney for +R? 2) Are there any nearby hotels close to GamePazzo still vacant? 3) Is there anyone able and/or willing to house me next Thursday in Chicago? Preferably close to GamePazzo or surrounding hotels/areas Any help much appreciated! Edited August 19, 2013 by Tiggy
