    Fair play man, theres a bit of a scene popping up in the limerick area alright so there should be a fair few here that can go.

    Can I ask though, why this?:

    Street Fighter tournaments generally follow a standardized format, 3 rounds per fight, best of 3 fights etc etc but the 99 seconds time limit is a very important part of the game and it'll really kill a lot of characters game plan if thats removed.

    I'd recommend you put some more thought into the no timer aspect there man.

    Well that is fair enough! I'll change that now, don't want to be ruining people's gameplans!!

    I would also consider putting this on a Saturday.

    I'd travel from dublin to pretty much anywhere IF I could for a tournament.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 27 FrontierX


    Well if we can gather enough interest by monday we can consider moving it to Saturday, without sizeable competition it wouldn't be worth your time


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Orim


    I'd be up for travelling down to this.

    Personally I don't mind the Wednesday but the Saturday might get some more people.

    Well for those in the Limerick area, I'd happily pick a few people up if it increases our numbers.

    I'd pick up anyone en-route from Waterford to limerick but I don't thnk that'd suit anyone from here :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Orim



    Doesn't help as the last bus leaves at half seven.

    I don't think I can make it to this as there doesn't seem to be a cheap fares train for getting down and I can't afford the full fare.


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    Goes without saying that I'll be there. I'll help run it too.

    If any of the regulars here would like to come down tuesday evening, I can put you up for the night in my Limerick place and we can head over then in the morning. I have 2 couches, and I'd say I could fit two more into the beds of my flat-mates. Send me a PM if you're up for that. If not, what harm, more chances of prize-money for me :D

    Well on a Wednesday evening Denmark street should be pretty empty, i move my own car from the car park to there at around 5 every evening and tickets are never an issue after that time. Also it means u are pretty much right beside Frontier X then! If ya can manage to get in the loading bay in front of the Cuckoo Box that is pretty much perfect.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 25,868 Mod ✭✭✭✭Doctor DooM


    So tempting to come down and school you Limerick boys but it'd mean taking time off work and not sure I'd be able to get it...


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,181 ✭✭✭✭Jim


    Would come down but just can't afford it this week unfortunately.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,587 ✭✭✭Xinkai


    What if we all pitch in for a hostel or hotel room & get the early bus back?


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    Like I said, I can fit about 3 in my house, first come and all that. You can come stay Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday if you give me a bit of notice.

    Picked up a couple of fighting sticks for the PS3 today, now all i need to do is unlock all the chars! Got a few people to bring in their Xbox hard drives so we'll have them for that but I have a bit of work ahead of me for the PS3 version, if anyone in the Limerick area is around and wants to pop in any time before the tournament starts to give me a hand I'd be most appreciative :)

    Pro tip:

    Set difficulty to very easy


    Set rounds to 1

    Hard kick is your friend with nearly every character :)
