    The Time is Near:
    New York City. The landmarks, the lights, the pizza, the guard break of doom. Now, you can be there, celebrating your love of Virtua Fighter! NYG9 is coming August 15 - 17.

    The Gathering:

    NYG9 will be a three day long gathering of Virtua Fighter players from all over the world. Last year's NYG was even bigger than expected, so this year we are pulling out all the stops to make sure this event is as enjoyable as possible. With different events each day, and blocks of time scheduled for offline casuals, this will be three full days of VF.

    The Schedule:
    Remember that NYG stands for New York Gathering. Our first priority is to provide a large space where players can gather and enjoy Virtua Fighter offline, as it was meant to be played. That being said, NYG will also feature multiple tournaments and other events which will be streamed. Stay tuned for more announcements.

    Venue Fee is $10 per day.

    Streaming will start at 3:00 P.M.
    We will be at the arcade from opening at 12:00, so we will take registrations and make brackets from there.
    Tournaments are expected to end before closing, but time has been allotted in case they run long. If the tournaments end at the expected times there will be a few hours for FT10s, grudge matches, exhibitions, and other hype stuff on the stream. We are going to make this as entertaining as possible so start thinking of who you'd like to challenge in the remaining time before NYG!

    Friday, August 15: General Gathering. Friendly casuals, Virtua Fighter 4 Final Tuned Tournament.
    Saturday, August 16: Team Tournament Starts at 3:00
    Sunday, August 17: Singles Tournament Starts at 6:00

    The Venue:
    NYC's Next Level Arcade will be hosting this event. Last year's event was so big that we took up nearly all the setups and made Marvel players cry! Let's not even let them get in the door this year!

      That's the idea behind the list thing. If I can get the list together, I will organize it up, and we can rent multiple rooms to try and get better rates. I'm willing to get things rolling, but I'm not trying to rent out a whole floor of rooms when nobody has signed up lol.
      Cruz and I are going to check out the other hotels in the area in case the King's Hotel doesn't give us a deal. We'll give info as we get it, but if you guys are able to call in for rates try that too and post info up here.
      Worst comes to worst, there are many hotels with good rates on Queens Blvd where I live. It is a far distance, but if you end up over there I will meet with you and take you in on the train for the event.

      Just got an email today from ticketmaster saying the Steve Aoki concert at MSG is postponed until September. I got my refund and now I'm also not on any time constraints for Saturday @NYG!

      Nice. We are probably gonna go nuts promoting now that EVO is mostly over. We have time frames and tournament rules ready to get updated on the main page, and I am gonna take some pictures of the prizes we got together. Also now that our streaming is back on track, we should be showing off more of that crisp FT goodness as well as FS to get people hype.

      After playing some California guys at EVO, I'm more motivated than ever to come to NYG. I'm hoping a bunch of guys from Toronto will make the trip!

      Hey all, for those that still need a place to stay during the tourney, I just reserved a room for players to stay in at the Red Carpet Inn Brooklyn. So for the 'maybes' out there, I hope this will help change your RSVP's to 'yes'.

      We now have 8 days until NYG. If there are still any people on the fence because they cannot afford a room, let me know through a PM. Cruz and I were talking about going in on a room for people who are still unsure.

      Partyboy lives near this event and shouldn't miss it. Please let him know you won't kill, mame, or bully him if he shows up. As a young 14 year old player I can see why he is reluctant to go. I know it isn't like that at all, but would appreciate if you could post some inspiring reasons why he should come.

      Thanks
