Thanks to WorldJem for helping me put this up :) Hope to see all of the SG folks out for this event :)
 
Heads up guys. Apparently, some single tournies will be running Friday. Not sure which games will fall on what day though. If SG is on Friday, I won't be able to make it unfortunately (Actually if SG, BB and Persona all end up on Friday, I'm just going to stay home, lol)
 
@CCG.RXS
Please don't relegate SG to Friday. D=

Also, feel free to use this thread as a roomsharing thread.

SG will get stage time on Saturday guarenteed. I'm still working the schedule though. I can probably fit SG in on Saturday at the moment. Ultimately some games will have to run friday night but i'm trying to mix it up.

I just called and booked my hotel and updated the OP with info I got from booking.

So far I'm alone in my room, so I'm looking to get some people with me to share the cost of the room.

@ManoxMano
@Beefy Heropon
You two interested?
 
Sorry, not really interested. I'm just going to take bus there.
 
Won't you need a place to stay?
 
not really, just going to take the bus back as well. Its only a little longer than the trip to A&C and I'm super cheap. :)
 
Yeah ill share with you id rather not bus my gear to and from
 
I was thinking about bringing the laptop and using it for an extra SG setup. Recording tourny sets let's go?

Brackets up for those interested

See you guys this weekend!
Why are the 4 best players all on the same half of the bracket? Who made these brackets? Like the 5th best player in this tournament is getting a free ride to top 3, that shit gets me tight

This is a huge improvement although I would recommend swapping Megaman DS with either Rorouni or Sam.
 
MMDS is going to Canada Cup?

It's 1UP.Zako as in Hamilton's 1UP games store/arcade place.

Oh I thought that was MMDS cause he enters as Zuko sometimes. Nevermind, carry on.
 
It says SG finals are being streamed on the canada cup 2 stream at 6pm tommorow.

edit: was looking at an old schedule. new schedule says 4

I have a skullgirls setup in the Tekken area.
 
Is only top 4 getting streamed on Canadacup2 still? Also what time?
 
Wow I'm so upset they overestimated how much time sg actually needs, that ended in only 20 minutes. We could have had top 8 streamed at least. I mean, Virtua top 3 took like an hour and a half. *frustrated exhaling*

Regardless, congrats to you worldjem for taking it!
 
I wanted to get winners finals (me vs heropon) on stream for top 4, but Vince didn't tell the other TOs it was ok, so I just let it go and we had to play off stream. Didn't want to sit around arguing which would take more time.

Stream was still hype and I'm happy Vince was nice to give every game stream time, including skullgirls.

Well, some stream time is indeed better than none. I'll take what I can get then
 
Had a good time, it was fun commenting but I need to work on it. I think I talked too much

If anyone who came wants more SG action in T.O I t.o monthlies at A&C Games 452 Spadina Avenue. Next one should be at the end of the month so look out for a thread!

This was my first fighting game tournament. I had a lot of fun! It was nice playing with everyone. I have a lot of room for improvement, but I feel like I learned a lot just from the short time I played(like the Squigly mixups Sam showed me!). I'm saving up for Frosty Faustings, going to try to get much better by then. I should probably do more than just play quick match all the time, hehe.

I loved watching all the Top 8s live(USF4 was insane), meeting a lot of the pro players, getting to play games I never tried before, seeing Tekken 7 and SF5 in person, and hanging out with a bunch of cool people. It was an awesome event. Big thanks to the Canada Cup staff, they put in a ton of hard work. I'm really happy I was able to attend! Hopefully I see you guys again in the future.

Finally back in Montreal. Quick shoutouts.

Shoutouts to:
- @worldjem for winning the tournament and all the casuals. ooof, that Fortune pressure. That was truly terrifying.
- @Beefy Heropon for knocking me into losers. It's hard to believe that it's been almost 3 years of suffering I've had to endure with the vs Peacock Matchup now, lol. It was a great Peacock though and you played really well! I've got some ideas on how to improve that I'll be experimenting with for next time
- Gandalf The Black for knocking me out of the tournament. Those were some great games and you're a nice guy.
- The guy I played casuals with after the tournament who just started playing the game. Another Squigly comrade! I hope you'll enjoy playing and improv
