This is the start of the new year and as everyone knows i've decided to make KDP Bi Monthly with special events every now and then in between official KDP Grand Prix tournament.

This means that the months for KDP Grand Prix and seeing the official games on there will be February, April, June, August, October, and a final tournament will be in November actually.

The first special tournament coming up will be KDP Poverty Fest 2013 which will be March 23rd, 2013, a very special tournament bringing back the old games, and even some of the current games will be there. Prize support will be massive for this tournament, although I will not be adding in pot bonuses in particular as the reason for this is to give love and enjoy the older stuff not to try to come out and make 500 dollars. The main reason for this type of event is the FUN of gaming and the enjoyment of the classics and amazing games out there. Maybe even show the newer players some of these classics and the joy that we, as older players had playing them back in the day.

More info on that will be posted later and in an event thread however you can discuss and talk about it here.

While Ultimate Marvel WILL be running at the poverty fest tournament it's because of the ease of running it, combined with the speed and the fact that i'm also doing a VERY special tournament for that game in particular later in the year (some of you know of it) and because of the type of tournament it will be, I would like NC to level up as much as possible in preparation of this special marvel tournament.

If entering any of those first games and you're not going to be on time you NEED to call one of these numbers 609-829-8015 that's the number to call Nathan or you can call Elite Zone at (910) 826-3661

Unlike last time in which we held up the tournament for 30-45 minutes for a few people to show up we're not doing that this time. This only applies to those tournaments listed at the 2:15-2:45 mark unless special circumstances occur.

We will also be doing a call out 10 minutes before each tournament starts to accept people who may have changed their mind and want to enter that specific tournament. Once the tournament starts there is no guarantee we will accept a late entrant.

We want to get the tournament done fast that way everyone can do as many runbacks/money matches/casuals as they want when we're done. We will be packing up some of the equipment around midnight but people are free to stay as long as there are setups (24/7 venue)

We're going to be using Challonge and seeding will be done manually by myself and the leaders of various communities.

The primary stream will be at twitch.tv/namedakamada for PS3 Games and if the TH guys help out again they will be running the stream for the Xbox 360 games.

 

Trykt and I are going. Alstein? CarolinaPanther?

 

Support VF in NC and come out to this awesome event! We're trying to get it started up. It would be great to atleast get a 6 man round robin going before Final Round but if we can get even more that would be great.

 

Drift and I are winning this thing. Just a heads up.
