MBAA makes it into Evo! BBCT removed and replaced with MvC2! Thanks for getting feedback from the community, Ponder! You guys made the right decision.

one day i will make it to one of these

He claims to have a date with someone that's not a furry. We all know this is a lie.

It seems like we may find out when BBCS may get a console release on the 11th, according to a leaked Famitsu cover.

40 people? We don't even know ten people that soley play GG or MB.

I know Evo wasn't always exclusively console before, but those were the days before we had a reliable 3S port (although there was never a good ST one, unfortunately). Staff has said time and time again "Evo is a console tournament", even when the 3S and ST communities wanted super guns in place of consoles. Consoles are far more convenient in every way. Even if they allowed it, getting at least four machines to Evo is easier said than done. I have talked to Goryus about it since he owns the machine and the board, but driving 10 hours to Evo with a machine in his car is asking a lot. Bringing the board would be a lot easier, but the issue then is setting it up without any flaws. Mike Z could also bring his board, and so could Fubarduck. Again, the same issue arises, not to mention that if anyone suddenly cannot go to Evo, Evo is screwed and doesn't have a way to run CS. Of course this is theoretically saying all three would be willing to even do this.

Except Evo is a console exclusive tournament. Even if that weren't the case, how is Aksys supposed to get these BBCS units? It's not like they have them just lying around the office.

It's speculation, but BBCS being out on console in time for Evo is highly unlikely at this point. I believe MrWizard has said he's talked to Aksys and they've told him BBCS will not be out on console in time for Evo. Of course that's probably just a safe way of saying "probably not"; it's better to say no than to give a false promise or a "maybe". There's always the issue of unforseen delays in production that can happen, so even if BBCS was slated for a mid-June release, a sudden month's delay could screw everything up. Logically, CS won't be out on time for consoles, especially since Evo is earlier than ever this year.

Let's try to keep on topic here. Please don't talk about what game or games should take the last or last two Evo game spots since that's not what Evo staff wants to know.

Best case scenario: (by some miracle) BBCS comes out on console, all is well Worst case scenario: BBCT stays in Evo line up, takes up slot for an otherwise deserving game, has a poor amount of people enter, has very unhype finals Since BBCS is 99% likely to not be out on time, the best possible choice would be to remove BBCT from the official line up of games. That's not to say that the BB community doesn't care about the game, because they do. They are hungry for the game, tournaments, and competition, but CT is not very well liked, especially compared to CS. If CT remained at Evo, I'm sure some people would still enter it, but the numbers and amount of care will be low compared to CS's potential. Give the slot to a community that wants it more for their game... but just don't forget that the BB community does care about BB... just not CT.

Your father is a smart man.

I love cats. I love dogs. I hate furries. Furries cause all the wars in the world. Furries are why Jesus died. Furries caused Atlantis to sink into the ocean. Furries caused hurricane Katrina. Etc.

My mission in life is to destroy ever furry I come across.

Shut the fuck up you fucking furry.

Fred, if you can post up a flier for the 2v2 tournament soon, that'd be great. The tournament doesn't have to have a special name.

Evo would be ten times better if Mr. Mamation wasn't in it.

Like all team tournaments, the characters are locked for the entire tourney, meaning you can only play one character the entire tournament.

Only faggots say VSav instead of VS. :|

You can choose who goes first and second every match.

You're already salty. :o

I'd like to get this started sooner than later.

This looks fine to me, but yeah I'm not sure what to do about same character teams. For the sake of keeping things interesting, we can try to make sure same character teams don't happen but it's not a big deal if they do. As far as two seeded players being randomed on to the same team, I don't think it matters that much since the entry fee is only $3 per person. We could, however, just set it up so that the top four players or whatever from singles can't be on the same team. I don't want to think too much about it since it's just supposed to be for fun.

I like the idea of random teams and Waseda format. Should entry still be $10 per team since it's random, or should we lower it? Same character teams allowed (same character teams may be unavoidable since we ended up having three Tagers last tournament )?

2/13 isn't Valentine's Day. :| Besides, spending Valentine's Day with your cat is kind of weird and creepy. I think I prefer Pokemon style over Waseda, but either is fine with me depending on what people want. I think random teams could be really fun but it'd have to be for fun, meaning the entry fee could be like $1 per person.
