    Last minute entrant...I'll be there...cower in fear etc.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭ayjayirl


    Hi guys,

    Last day! Get Hype. Its shaping up to be a good one alright. I just wanted to mention a few things about the prize options and structures for that everything is clear.

    Sticks
    Thankfully, all the fighting sticks are in our possession so presentation will be on the day. This will take place at the end of the day after Grand finals.

    Raffle
    There will be a raffle on the day for a copy of Ultimate Fighter 7 (courtesy of Gamesnash) and a collection of FG memorabilia (thanks Sai). Tickets will be on sale on the day for €1 a ticket or €3 for 5.

    The SSF4 prize will be allocated as following:
    The top 8 for the SSF4 tournament will all have until 21st April to email me about whether or not they can make it to EVO in Vegas. (Remember, there are people who work, study, cannot afford etc) This will allow each of the top 8 to see if they can make the necessary arrangements to go. I will then, starting at 1st and working my way down in order, give the prize to the person who placed highest and who has confirmed that they can go. Please note that the prize is not transferable by the winner. If I have no received an email from someone before midnight on the 21st Arpil, they will forfeit their option. In the unlikely event that all of the top 8 cannot go, it will goto the people from 9th-16th. Each placing will determine the preference as above. Rinse and repeat until we have a traveler.

    I want to congratulate everyone involved in making this happen and hope that everything goes well for all concerned.

    See ya tomorrow!
    Aj

    Yo Ayjay, my name isn't on the list there, despite signing up a while back. I'll be entering Marvel and possibly SF.

    Same here, I'll be entering UMvC3 and MK.
    I'll just make it clear to the TOs tomorrow since it's a bit late for changes now. I know Kuro is the TO for MK, who's running Marvel?

    HI guys,

    Pretty drunk right now. ggs today to all involved. Big up to supersquaddy - legend. Nothing else would describe his awesomeness.

    Big up to WGE and Problem X for the HYPE sand competition. Hope to see youy guys soon.

    Thanks to all invovled in making it happen. would not have been possible without everyone.

    Till next time!

    Aj


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,396 ✭✭✭PPC


    And a big thanks to AJ for organizing one of the best events in our community.
    Really appreciate all the effort you've put into the event for the last few months.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,239 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    Hi all,
    First and foremost, a major thanks to AJ and everyone who had a part in organizing and running the event. I'm one of the older members of the community and I have been to many similar gaming events so it takes something special to get me excited.

    30 seconds in, color me excited! When I walked in yesterday, it was clear that the Irish FGC had taken things to the next level. Massive projectors, dedicated streaming area, well laid out consoles and commentary section.

    It was good to see some well known faces such as WGF and Problem X at the event and I hope that they bring good stories back to their communities.

    The only downside was that many of the people who had preregistered didn't make it to the event for whatever reason. Personally, I do feel that the organizers of the event deserved better commitment from the community, and I would suggest that if we are doing one next year that preregistrations are paid in full, either via PayPal or by another means. Maybe have a raffle or a cheaper price for fully paid preregistrations. Bird in hand etc.

    GGs to AnimaX, Dark Talent, SteveO and the Dhalsim player. GGs to Sairus, Ireally enjoyed our practice sets.

    I believe our community is in the right hands, well done again lads.

    Oh and also, well done SteveO!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16 supersquaddy


    Just got back, epic drive this morning.

    Thanks to everyone for an awesome event, I had to take myself home after the jack daniels started to make me walk funny.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,328 ✭✭✭Nutrient


    ggs to everyone that participated in the tournaments

    Doyler and Onion in Grand Finales just like last year
    Your not done yet Onion!

    Irelands still got loads to learn
    Doyler, watch your back:P

    Ste definetly deserved the win in MK9

    AE was too hype with Problem X's and Stevo's performance

    Strekken was a load a crap

    Thanks for all the hard work AJ, Doom, Alene, SuperSquaddy and everyone that helped make this event possible


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 258 ✭✭Hawke


    good event lads finals were great


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭Scavenger XIII


    Showed up late, played bloody awful and headed on early for other business but I have to say the venue was definitely impressive, good sized room, loads of setups, projectors, the works.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,919 ✭✭✭1man3letters

    many thanks to all the people who went to some much trouble to put this on :D

    My broken finger wished it could be there but alas, he couldn't make it. :p

    From the looks of it though it was an incredible day. Big gratz go out to the organisers. It looked the bussiness. :)


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 25,872 Mod ✭✭✭✭Doctor DooM


    Hey peeps- Bad, good, bad news with the videos :)

    Bad news- looked at the twitch archive... wow, that looks bad, full of delays and lag spikes. I'd blame the wireless, ultimately if you're not wired you can't be definite about stable speed. Especially in a room full of nerds using interwebs.

    Good news- Xsplit worked well and I have the ENTIRE DAY recorded on my laptop, start to finish.

    Bad news- I have 1 huge 5 hour file, which I will have to break down, so it may be a while before you see all of the tournament.

    Just wanna say thanks to everyone who came, to everyone who helped (every little bit really does help in these things) and especially AJ who pulled it off again in even greater style this year.

    I will be working at getting all the stream up on YT asap. I don't think using twitch to do it is viable, sadly!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,229 ✭✭✭Dreddybajs


    If you want you can pass your external onto me again Doom and I can upload it from here overnight or something.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,020 ✭✭✭Ry


    Is it just me or are the recordings of the stream on twitch un-watchable? The speed they download is awful. Can't watch and stream them at the same time at all. It's crap! Not sure if it's me having a ****e connection or Twitch being ****e? Anyone else getting poor transfer rates?

    http://www.twitch.tv/randomselectie/videos?page=2


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,084 ✭✭✭✭Kirby


    Fine for me regarding download speed. The stream recording itself is laggy in places but thats not on twitch's end. I would wager that was the connection used when recording.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,363 ✭✭✭Misty Chaos


    First of all, thanks to AJ and those involved for once again running a successful event. I imagine it's no easy task to bring this all together. I had no problem helping where needed when I was around the day before and on the day itself.

    Next, GGs to everyone I played over the weekend be it casuals the night before, casuals the day itself or actual tournaments matches, it's nice to play some of you people offline for a change.

    Well done to the winners of all the tournaments, it was well deserved.

    First things first- Fair play to AJ! What an incredible set-up! Two big-ass projector screens with an even bigger ass projector screen in the middle? Now that's that stuff right there! The whole room looked and felt amazing! Can we have that at DoCs from now on? :pac:

    Good games to everyone I fought against. It was monster craic. A really enjoyable experience from start to finish.

    My apoligies for my crusty voice during the commentary. I was dragon punched by a bit of man flu during the week, so it left me sounding like a poor man's Batman.

    Also, fair play to Letters for bringing home the bacon in the MK tourny. That final made for some serious watching.

    Finally, word up to Letters and Razer for the late night casuals last night. Great craic, lads :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,237 ✭✭✭Owwmykneecap


    So Yeah evo event innit.

    First up shoutouts to The Goldsmith Hall being located exactly where I didn't think it was, leading to me ambling around the trinners ground like an Irish-american looking for her granny. But aside from that, for being a site with a welcome bit of room, a luxury we'll all remember the next sunny day in the Exchange.

    Have the action up on the projectors was sick, never before have so many people seen a bad button config blow up so big.

    I wasn't able to be up in time for the earlier tournaments, but from what I can see they all ran smoothly, SSFIV did anyway despite a few setups being a bit, well lets call them; friends of Yun.

    For everyone that turned up, especially the new people I met, fair play. It can definitely be daunting to show up to an event like this with any previous experience, or knowing what to expect. Terry man, great to see you again.

    For everyone who did not show up... ಠ_ಠ

    Best part of the night though was managing to find a bar where we could all fit, talk ****e and eat weird Spanish food. Apologies to anyone whose ear I talked of with inane rubbish.

    So I have to extend my sincere thanks to Dreddy for giving me a (surprisingly comfortable) place to crash, and avoid hanging around outside busaras for the night.

    So essentially this is getting into a long winded way of saying this:
    Having an annual day for our scene is important for our spread out scene, playing our games and bonding afterwards. Thanks, to everyone who put in efforts, lots of it, to make it happen.

    AJ, Doom, aileen, anyone with an unoffcial shirt, the equipment donate-ers, noise-makers, hype creators and uh... pint servers.
    I had to take myself home after the jack daniels started to make me walk funny.

    ;)

    Final shoutout goes to dreddy's cat for scaring the bejesus out of me while i was asleep.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,239 ✭✭✭UberPrinny_Baal

    Bad news- I have 1 huge 5 hour file, which I will have to break down, so it may be a while before you see all of the tournament.

    If there's anything I can do to help this get uploaded faster, please let me know.
    I have access to pretty blindingly fast internet and I'm dying to watch it.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 25,872 Mod ✭✭✭✭Doctor DooM


    Well, both WMM and iTunes crap out under the weight of a 5 hour file, so unless someone can get out to my house before the weekend, the weekend it will be :)
