    So it would seem this is our last tempest for the years end.

    lets see if we can make this one a big tempest to finish off the year,

    so the starting times are as normal, 13:00 to 18:00
    Fee's are the same 12 euros ( the 2 extra euros are for the equipment funds )

    If anyone can bring equipment ( ie, Xboxes, monitors, speakers, etc. ) Then please let us know here.

    Here is a map as to the location of the venue in relation to the train station and the bus station;

    Rules are as follows:

    SSFIV:

    Prize pot will be split 60/30/10 among the top 3 finishers.

    The tournament format is a group stage followed by a double elimination brackets stage.

    Each match will be best of 3 games and each game is best of 3 rounds. The third game of a match will only be played in the event of a tie after the second game. If one player wins the first 2 games the third game is not played.

    Time is set to 99 seconds.

    1. All characters are selectable.

    2. Custom controllers and button configuration is allowed.

    3. Turbo is banned. Anyone who is caught using this feature will be disqualified.

    4. Players can change characters in each set. However once a set has started they may only change characters after losing a game. The winner of the first game must stick to the character they started the game with and may only change if he loses the second game, in which case the winner of the second game must then stick to the character he used in the second game.

    5. Double Blind select available in the event of people being concerned about counter picking. An admin will assist with this if required.

    6. Rock, paper, scissors is used in the event of people being unable to agree on which side they want to sit on.

    7. In the event of a player pausing a game during a round or his stick/pad fails during a round, he forfeits the round unless both players agree to carry on. If there is a dispute an admin will resolve the dispute.

    8. In the event of a game ending in a draw, the game will scrapped and not counted towards the results. It will then be replayed.

    9. Players who are overly disruptive during a competition or who are distracting other players can be removed from the tournament at the discretion of the tournament admins.

    10. No food can be eaten in the venue that was not bought on the premises.

    I'd be down for travelling to Cork as well, I've always liked Cork (don't care about Marvel :P).

    Unfortunately I'm pretty busy until early 2013 as far as weekends go :(

    Misty's last Tempest will be coming up in the New Year and would be a good occasion to try and get everyone together for a big one. Definitely something to think about. I'll say it to Shokashi today and see if the wheels can't be set in motion.
