: Tulsa - DownTown Joe Momma's 2nd Monthly - 01/17/09; what game?
: X_A November 12, 2008, 10:43:11 PM
DATE - unknown, I'll assume around the second Saturday or so of the month of December - might get skipped to Jan depending on stuff, we'll see and be accurate on reports before posting an actual thread.

2 games or 1?  If a FPS wins, probably 1.  If a fighter, probably 2, simply because we have plenty of space.

Joe Momma's downtown location is opening up in November!  As a result, they now are hosting Monthly events!  What game? Well that's up to you guys via the poll above!  We may extend the poll if the date pushes back into Jan, but for now - 2 weeks, 3 votes, only vote for what you'd come to!


While they are open to H3 or another FPS reoccuring, I've stated that numbers have been too low on hardware responses for me to feel comfortable doing that without healthy poll results; so we'll just go with whatever else wins each month, etc if H3 or a FPS get's low hardware response.

Like all tournaments OKgamers organizes for gaming communities - we'll need hardware.  Fighting games need at least 3 to 4 setups, shooters need a minimum of 8, GH3 at least 4, etc.  While the poll will probably be the final word, hardware postings will help sway things.

HALO/FPS PLAYERS - what's healthy?  30+ votes for the winning type, and at least 8 to 16 people saying they can bring hardware - as in full setups.  If Halo anything wins with 20 votes, and the next one has 18, we'll go with the next one.  Simply put - all FPS's have had low results in Tulsa, so I don't want to organize an event and have the low hardware affect another event.

SSBB / SC4 - the monthlies at FH won't be going away - so you've already got your game showing up.  However - you want another?  We'd do it if you can win the poll!

Please - only vote for games you'd come to for a tournament!  And, if you have a setup you can bring, let us know!


For games to be added, they need 3 recommendations on this thread.

Yes - this will be a volunteering opportunity, and I'll be putting it up on Volunteer Central!


In the end? Vote, you've got 2 weeks.  FPS's - in the Tulsa area after H3 came out, getting hardware has always been a problem.  I was the one to suggest your game for consideration, but once again, we've got to have enough hardware to support the tournament.  Even if a game is voted in and has plenty of promises of hardware - if we don't have enough hardware actually show up, we'll change the format - say 4v4 to 2v2, etc.

Yes, we did, but I don't know how many choices we got this time. I voted for what I play, not for what I don't play. It's kind of the point of this poll. :-\

POLL EXTENDED:

B - EVENT IS JAN 17th - so mark your calendars, - 01/17/09.


Vote for another 2 weeks, and we'll see you out at Joe Momma's on the 17th!@#

Just so you gamers know -

THIS IS WHAT WE CALL A POLL :)

We take what you the gamers say (yes, you have to register to have the ability to  vote, NO - we cannot track who votes what - ever.) - and throw a TOURNAMENT BASED OFF IT.


Because we do things like this - for at least the Tulsa area - we use it as the "no right to complain" rule.  If your game didn't get voted in - well it's because you didn't vote for it, and get your friends who play to vote, etc etc - obviously.  When we did this the last time?  The winning game had 10 VOTES.  TEN.  So yea.  Fair warning - no whining because you didn't get your way, when the votes are in the single digits and winning, you are lazy, not "in the right" :)


This helpful 'calling out of lazy gamers that think they should get tournaments then don't even vote when they get the chance' was brought to you by....

Well this is awesome.  3 way tie, and SC 1 vote lower.  5 votes is sad -_-
Anyway - as stated, FPS's don't count till they hit a certain number - and well, 5 ain't it.
That leaves SSBB 1v1/2v2, and SC4.  Do we do all 3, just smash, eh?

I'll give this a few hours, then just make a call I guess.  (will poll game night peep's, and watch here.)

Wouldn't it be more logical to add in the ones with three votes? :D lol

My concern - last time we did a duplicate event too close - and hardly anyone showed up.  So - do we do it again?

Who said anything about GoW? >_>

Also, Saif, I wouldn't know. I'd say stick with the single one if the costs would be a lower turn out. :)

Personally. I think you guys should stay with the same games. SSBB gamers in tulsa are hardcore and dedicated on coming. How many showed up?
