I hear where you're all coming from, and I'm not coming from a perspective where I'm "Putting AH and MB in favor of KOF", if there's anyone aware of the numbers for those scenes, it's me. The tournament will be run as side because of setups and organization experimenting. Again, the MB and AH3 things can be staggered given their previous attendance rates, but I will put KOF at the forefront; IF people show up on time.

If the TO's aren't there for whatever reason, I will generate the brackets myself for every single tournament (That means 5 Brackets) (I will have bracket files ready to be transferred). If TO's want to save me some work and forward me the seeding info, that would be fantastic. Reg will end at 12, tournaments promptly starting after the brackets are made.

That's the intent. If people want KOF to work alongside the rest of the games currently, they'll show up and be paid at 12 PM next Saturday.

I've been doing this for a year now and I think that people that don't show up on time reasonably are inconsiderate. Especially considering the plans for this event for the month. I can accept lateness when it comes to a first or second time, but as we start our double-digit run of NCIs, it feels like people are taking advantage of my kindness. So for the last time, I repeat. SHOW UP ON TIME. If people ABSOLUTELY CAN'T MAKE IT ON TIME, just hope you're paid for by a friend and that you make it there. I will have brackets ready for every game in advance and will start exactly at 12 solo if need be. ~Chun

Registration for NCI will be up tonight. KOF will be a side event as an experiment given people show up on time. ~Chun

Test run as a side tournament. Time as always is an issue and if people care enough about this game there will be significant schedule changes. For now people that want to support the higher chance of it being official should show up on time.

Leaving an hour early to avoid traffic. Don't understand why this is a foreign concept to people. If NCI ever hopes to grow, we need people not showing up 2-3 hours after the designated timeline fluxing up the schedule. Show up. On time. ~Chun

Maybe if people answered my polls in threads and questions on groups we might have a KOF Tourney at NCI :P P.S. It's probably happening if people SHOW UP ON TIME.

Quick poll, KOF Side tournament? Finals only on stream? Y/N, registration goes up in the next couple of days.

Happy Turkey day. Also known as "chicken fraud" day.

FYI, NCI moved from December 3rd to December 10th. I'll be contacting the companies planning to swing by as well.

Norcal Install is moved to December 10th, not December 3rd, due to some arrangements with the stream and plans to give back to communities. Apologies if this conflicts with any prior arrangements in advance.

Next NCI: December 3rd. More details to come about soon. I'm currently planning for the Late February Blazing NCI, I'd appreciate the vote and the feedback: http://tinyurl.com/NCIFacebook

Spark needs to be a voice patch for Hakumen when he's doing his moves. Corner Combo SFX: "Nothing Better to do" (Hotaru) "Sure" "Sure" "I don't know" "Sure" "Sure" "No" "My name is Spark and I'm the 2011 EVO Champion" (Kokuujin) "Better not go up on youtube" (Super Counter) So sad I couldn't go (Work and Interviews). However I'm currently planning for the Late February Blazing NCI with sponsors and would like some input. Just as a heads up posting it here, and please give the link a look: http://tinyurl.com/NCIFacebook

NCI and Artificial Intelligence bodied my weekend. Good luck to our Norcal guys, and hope everyone in SoCal, PNW, and the other scenes do just as well.

Batman at NCI? Awesome! EightArc there to show off their sleek equipment? Also awesome! Special guest coincidentally coming from Wisconsin? Amazing! See you all tomorrow!

I'm hearing a lot of people won't be making it to NCI this month out of the core tournament runners. Orion, Tone, Dakanya, KatanaDash, will you all be present? ~Chun

http://norcalinstall.wordpress.com/registration/ Preregister for the November NCI now! Stay tuned for November 5th!

Been behind on preparations because of overall busyness. EightArc will be visiting for November 5th's NCI. Will have the equipment list up as well. AS I understand it Canada Cup is the same weekend so the turnout will be a little lower (READ AS: No Dacid) and I'm not sure if other people have plans.

You didn't eat butter all match Vineeth, lol We'd love to have you Batman!

There wasn't any extra, I still have the 5$ in the budget, it was people in bracket x 5$ divided into 70/20/10. So you can get your 5$ back after because I was wondering where that came from.

I've officially called everyone on the equipment registration. If you did not get a call from me please bring your gear and displays anyway as we appear a little shorter this month. Please show up around 11AM for setup!

All games start as soon as Reg completes. Tournaments will still be started at staggered times, but not as drastically as it sounds.

Updated the website one more time. http://norcalinstall.wordpress.com Will be confirming people bringing setups tomorrow evening.
