Any word on if this is a weekly or monthly event?

 

I believe this will be weekly event, I posted it from Facebook. Triforce created the event.

 

This is aiming to be a weekly event so please spread the word far and wide and NYC people please get off your lazy asses and come out even if it's just to cheer in the crowd. See you all there and let's have some fun.

 

I might miss this first one because I'm already booked every night this week, but I'll be there next week. I'll comment for sure if he's going to have the full streaming set up going.

 

damm it why on a weekday,,, fuck!!!

 

Yeah I'd love to make it out to some of these if they weren't on Thursdays

Who knows, might make it out sometimes.

 

I will be in NY from the 2nd to the 7th of december so if it is really weekly I will defenitely join the event of the 6 december.

 

I'm confirming that I'll be at this for sure. Can I be like last in the bracket so that I have time to make the trip there? I'll be leaving columbia at 6.

 

when is VF over? i get off at freaking 7pm

 

I wish VF started later 6 is so early. Like 7 at least would be easier to work with. We aint gonna take no 2 hrs.

 

the event is more likely to start after 7... when the FGC says 6, they really mean 8

 

Rod, Tricky & I are at the venue. Jaxel is running the stream tonight. http:/twitch.tv/8wayrun

 

Btw can anyone tell what are best subways/bus route get to the venue.

 

#6 to Cypress Ave is the closest stop.

 

Good, this place is a little closer to me. But how long is casual play, if any? Unfortunately I'm not quite tourney-ready...

 

There is plenty of time for it before the event.

 

I gotta miss this week. I got slammed with projects yesterday.

 

VF was just Jaxel and myself last night.

We played some matches after DOA tourney was over. Apparently there was someone else for VF but he didn't stick around too long.

 

not only that but this dude sandford started dissing VF super hardcore when you guys were playing on the stream. im gonna make a highlight out of that and link it here, shit was so ignorant.
