EVENT OVER - Aftermath - http://www.okgamers.com/forums/index.php?topic=1638.msg20424#msg20424

--

Event -
Starting out this October 5th, Funhouse and OKgamers' begins their 6 month series of Soul Calibur 4 & Super Smash Bro's Brawl Monthly Tournaments!

This month will have additional cash thrown into the pot!  Read more below.

Why OKgamers helps?
We want to help out the SC4 and SSBB communities!  Also, monthly tournaments are held by some of the Tulsa area staff of OKgamers to get the word out about OKgamers.com - a site for Gamers in Oklahoma to post events and tournaments, get players together, and go to find out what's going on in our area.  Tired of hearing Oklahoma has nothing to do?  Want to help out the OKgamers cause of spreading the word, so we actually KNOW what's going on around the area?  -
 - Read more about our Goals
 - Join our staff!
 - Learn how College and HS students can get community service through volunteering with OKgamers!

We'll have these tournaments on the first Sunday of every month. [weather/schedule permitting] This is to make it easy to remember, and tell your friends.  Spread the word about the site - because it's a solution for the lack of communication about events for gamers in the area of Oklahoma!

5$ tournament pot cost.  Any tournament you play in cost 5$, and goes into the pot for 1-3rd.


OKgamers staff make no money doing this, that's not what this is about - go read our goals.  This is all volunteer, in the hopes of improving Oklahoma by networking through one site for gamers.  Don't abuse staff, or give us a hard time - as we aren't getting paid to put up with it :)  Why?  See our 'guidelines' link below.

SSBM? Oh wow. oook then.

This sounds pretty great. It brings back a somewhat nostalgic effect for me too, except there's a pot for Smash, and I have an account here now. :)

I've never attended any of the monthlies for the funhouse, but the monthlies were before I joined up, I think. Anywho, I might go, but I may not join in on the tournies. Just to go for the heck of it.

What's the reasoning behind the 4 stock for SSBB?

Most tournaments on smashboards run 3 stock as a standard. With that in mind, would it be in the best interest of okgamers to run a tourney to the standards of the community that it's catering to? Is there anything specific for this?

Just curious.
Thanks in advance

I'll be there. I'm going to bring a friend or two to help with Volunteering through Tulsa Achieves.

I'll bring the camera along, since we should have much more room then we did at the last Brawl tournament.

Yea yea - WOOPS - I meant SSBB of course -_-  Changed.  You know me - if we go ANYTHING older than SSBB - we go SSB64 - a real game ;)  (...that I can win at lol)


PhLo - to be frank, it WAS set at 3 - and I was told 4.  If 3 is the standard, and someone can be SURE SURE of that, I'll switch it back to 3.


Size of post = covering all the bases.  Quite frankly, this way there are less complaints, and more "make sure you read" statements instead of "woops we didn't cover that" lol.

PhLo don't get too excited. Here is the reasoning. Most tournaments I have seen for brawl run 3 stock. However, gamebattles, which is the online ladder system for MLG uses 4 stock. So, that is probably where that came from. I don't see a major reason to switch off of 3 stock, because 3 stock makes tournaments run faster. I would like to make an amendment to the rules though. Add on there that the metaknight down b glitch is banned. It is banned at all tournaments, it is easy to perform and really just a lame stall tactic. Oh and hopefully I will be able to attend.

Huh, Tulsa...ouch.

That's about a 2 hour drive for me. Does sound like a pretty epic tourney though...

I'll come if I can. I'll bring a capture and 1 setup if I can make it.

*writing down unbeatable Halo team*  there we go!

ANyway, awesome I'll be going, I was just there today after eating with my Dad, my dad learned that Raiden Fighters was there and made me pay for him, so we went and I hung there for 2 hours, I mainly played Raiden Fighters but also some Soul calibur 3 AE, DoA 2 (which i've never played on Arcade, and never ever played in general til OVGE) and also MvC 2.  That jump rope thing is kinda addicting though, I jumped over 24 times on the 1 coin round but couldn't do it on the 24 round....makes me angry.
