FIFA? NBA 2k? the only sports games I play?!

LMFAO IF YOU THINK I'M PLAYING SKULLGIRLS AT NEC NOW

shoutouts to Blaise but....

T H E || D E A L || I S || O F F
 
Need a few expenses in my immediate future to settle before I can make plans, but I'm definitely intending to make it out again this year.
 
Count me in. I'll already be there entering every anime game tourny anyway. Whoo, with SG this makes 7 tournies. This is going to be one crazy party. I can only hope to still have all my organs at the end of it.

Looking forward to meeting everyone again ^,^
 
@ SUMMER JAM ATTENDEES

This doesn't apply to everyone (Sonic n Blaise ;P) but if you attended Summer Jam with the intentions to ONLY ENTER SKULLGIRLS, and you didn't want to play any other game because you only wanted to enter SG. Please PM privately.

I feel really bad for not being able to attend/run the tournament, so the least I could do is pay your entry this time around as a "I'm sorry" this applies to people who literally entered NOTHING that weekend because they just wanted to play SG, or they wanted to enter SG as the main thing.

Sonic n' Blaise you were balls deep in UNIEL so ;P

But yeah, PM me privately if me not attending Summer Jam greatly effected how good/bad of a time you had at Summer Jam.
 
Its not Big E's fault haha.

Its OUR fault for having hella inconsistent numbers.

We can't just go to NEC than not go to Winter Brawl, we gotta consistently go to stuff but its all good. I'm just thankful Big E is letting us play <3

Summer Jam was completely my fault in every single way.
 
What really put me off about Summer Jam was the way some of the event staff spoke to me while I was trying to figure out what was going on with this game. I don't know if these guys were just having a bad day or what but a couple of the guys at the table with the signup sheets were pretty big jackasses to me when I inquired if skullgirls was happening/if there was a signup anywhere. Aside from that I still had fun there but the only thing I played was Pokemon and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't more than a little disappointed. Those are the breaks, I suppose.

Going to try really hard to be at this event! Looking to go real crazy, east coast rep and all that jazz.

Man why does all the tournys near by have to be on dates when I'm still needed in school for. This bites. can't go to summer jam, can't go to this because finals week, hell not even sure if I can go to winter brawl.
 
Lol yeah this is the worst weekend possible both in terms of school and work. I couldn't go last year because I didn't request off early enough. I should be able to make at least sunday this year though.

I'm probably gonna go but won't be until Saturday. I'm already taking off this Friday for GUTS3 and I have to take 2 days off in October for Comic Con. I'll be there, but it won't be until then, or at the earliest, super super late Friday (like probably midnight)

I'm gonna have to pull a few strings to get this to work. But if I can, I'll totally be there
 
We pay spectator fee if we go fo skullgirls right?
Hm, I'm not sure. I've always gotten a competitor pass for the Philly tournaments.
 
At NEC I got a competitor pass but at Winterbrawl I entered with a spectator pass. Read if you need a competitor pass to play a side game, if not go for spectator if sg is your only game.

if sg is being run sunday do you have an idea of what time

would really like to make it to this but not looking forward to having to take monday off
 
I'm going to guess noon? It was at like 12 last year I think lol
 
Most likely not, but someone will likely record some matches
 
The tournament Sunday usually goes like this.

Signups at 11 tournament at 12. They're usually okay with that, if anything changes i'll let you know its not official yet.

I wouldn't count on a stream but i'll actually work on it this time, but I definitely would not expect it.
 
When exactly is Winter Brawl?

Lets try and get some stream time. Doesn't matter on who's stream but I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be a huge deal to stream a game as fast as this one.

Winter Brawl doesn't seem to have a date yet.

Yeah, once I figure out who is streaming at this event and once a schedule is put out i'll see what I can do.
 
Well, isn't it Kick Punch Block that's streaming the Anime games? That's what it says in the OP.
 
Oh hey. I also probably need to plan for a hotel room so I don't end up sleeping in hallways until I'm kicked out of the hotel. Anyone got room? If not, @Dolfinh, got room in the room you got cause no one had room?
 
Wish I could actually go but I don't have the money to so whatever, I'd definently come if I could go. RIP.
 
Can you even book for a room now? It's kinda a couple of months away

Big E said that you can a few weeks ago
 
Yupperz, you can find details on booking a room in this recent Dustloop post. Guess I'll quote it here too for greater visibility

BigE's post on Dustloop said:
Get your rooms fast.
To book your room please contact the Reservations Departments at
610-521-9600 and ask to make a reservations for NEC Philly.
Prices:
$99 plus tax for Single
$109 plus tax for Double
$119 plus tax for triple
$129 plus tax for Quad(number of people in room) lol if you tell that you fault lol.
Last year we sold the hotel by Nov. so please don't wait.
 
If possible, if people have room, i'd like to stay for Saturday night. I have work that Friday and can't get off, but will be there Saturday about 1 or 2. Anything would be appreciated!
 
I might get bodied because I have SATs during that weekend. Most likely will be there for Sat/Sun but we will see how that works out. If anyone has a room I will pay you $$$$$ to sleep on your floor (and teach you Gordeau or something idk)

Super excited to see everyone I know and met new people :D
