Nom-Con (August 5th-7th)

Kuro Tao

Okay, so i'll be assisting in running this years Nom-Con gaming room.
Tournaments and stuff are still completely up in the air, so I'm posting here to see if/what you guys want to play.
If we get enough requests for anything, we will run it.
Tournaments that are more or less guaranteed will be:
SSFIV: AE
BB: CS2
MK9
Halo Reach
Pokemon Gen V
Tekken 6
Starcraft II
MvC3
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Street Fighter II turbo HD remix

That's really it so far, prizes are still to be confirmed but the more people who show, the better the prizes will be.

3rd Strike OE will be out by then, is that a possibility?

Kuro Tao

If enough people want to play it, sure. We'll have it just in case

powerofscience

Could we possibly consider getting Arcana Heart 3 in there? I can bring my PS3 with AH3 on it. Assuming anyone even wants to play it.

As I said, if enough people want to play it. I can't promise a tourney, but you can bring it anyway.

Dreddybajs

Oh yeah, crap, totally misremembered the date.

Fergus_

I will be up on the Saturday. It is still to be seen whether I'll be there for the weekend but Saturday for definite

Nutrient

Any MVC3?

Kuro Tao

Yeah, I think MVC will be a given too, I must've forgotten to mention that. My bad.

Sairus

I'll also be staffing Nom-Con this year, I'll have to bug people until I get posted in the games room as I don't believe I've been assigned anywhere yet... or at least haven't been told that I've been posted anywhere :pac:

Melty Blood normally gets a bit of a fanbase at anime cons, since it's based off Tsukihime.

Plus it's a much more fun fighting game than everything ever.

Doctor DooM

Won't be along this year, sorry people.

I do like beasting the ol con tournaments so it's a shame

UberPrinny_Baal

It's pretty exciting they have Marvel VS Capcom 3 and Marvel VS Capcom 4 on their Sunday timetable!

Is anyone entering the "StreetFighter Original Tournament" ?

Yeah, I have no clue who wrote the actual schedule, but damn I had to laugh at that myself.

LIFETRAP

So what's the deal with the tournaments on Sunday? Do you have to pay an entry fee to the con and to the tournament? Or just the tournament?

You always have to pay entry into the con. Nom con is 20 for a day, 35 for weekend. Tournaments are generally free after that.

CloudRunner89

Did you play Plat or OMGWHEREARETEHFEET?

Xinkai

Sorry the match was OMFGNOFEETZ Vs Tager.

D4RK ONION

Ah that's grand, he shouldn't have put money on such a horrific match up so!

I can't believe I lost to this scrub!

But seriously they were good matches, and way hype. We managed to gain a respectable crowd in that tiny room.

@ONION
Please, if he had played Plat I woulda trashed him. When we played at ArcadeCon, I destroyed him when he used her. Also the only reason I put down money was because I was sure I could win. I thought I had it, until around the 12th match. That's when I started to lose control and I made really stupid mistakes that cost me matches.

D4RK ONION

TBH I just wanted to work FORTHELOVEOFGODTHINKOFTHEFEET into a sentence and that was the easiest way!

Fergus_

GGs to everyone!

chueytoo

also ARC you ow money to sean(kurotan) money for the money match in mk9
