Alright, I am now officially registered for Winter Brawl.

Hey people you have less than 48 hours to register online for Winter Brawl at the LOW LOW price of $30. Hurry up or you're gonna be paying $45 at the door.

Is anyone going to be around Saturday/Saturday night for casuals? Is anyone bringing down a setup?

Hubbs, VF players only need spectator badge correct?


QueensName, I plan to bring a setup on Saturday.

I planned to play in my room too so I can warmed up too before the event. I planned to bring my Xbox for it. I didn't even know who else was doing that I still plan to bring my Xbox anyway.

Excellent, I'll get at you in the coming days to exchange contact information. There was little opportunity to play casuals @ NEC and it was exceptionally disappointing.

Okay good to know, I don't have an xbox, stick, but maybe I can borrow one and bring it.

No Shag you must pay full venue.

-----------------------

okay people we've extended pre-reg til monday 5pm est. Hurry up this is your last chance.

While I should have registered early don't you guys think $45 at the door is very steep? Especially considering that that does not even include entry fee for VF and the game is not even featured on Big E's site? At that price I hope we can at least get some quality displays or LCD's this time around. We usually get those crappy CRT TV's.

There's always some people that go, pay full venue fee and enter only one game when we hold an event even for side tournaments. If they pay why should I treat you guys like your special? And we are all lcd now. We went lcd at nec, but you would've known that already if you came.

VF5fs is now side tournament becuase you people seem to not travel for the game. It was a main game at NEC(25 entered) and Summer Jam(38 entered).

I agree why so steep?. It's like saying VF is a side bitch but you get to put up with girlfriend type bullshit .

I agree, 45 at the door and that's not even for the tourney. I should hold a tournament at my house and charge that much and if people don't show up, I should say that they're the reason the community is dying.

Right this is a good example. Why are we paying main tournament fees when we're a side tournament? It feels like we're getting jacked, especially since the game isn't listed on the pre-reg page.

So when vf5 was a main game at summer jam and nec you had no problem paying $40 at the door but because you guys choose not come out to support the game you cry because you have to pay $45 and get pushed to the side tournament listing? I have been working my ass off trying to keep a tourney scene alive at majors in the philly area for years now and you guys aren't helping me. If the numbers drop below what we had at NEC then VF is done at all philly majors and it's not beucase of a venue fee that EVERYONE pays for, it's because people don't make the effort to play their game even if it's a side tourament. People like Damdai only come out to play ST, 9.89 only plays mk2 and umk3, etc etc.

if i recall - SoCal regionals was the same price at the door. Honestly I would feel bad about the tourney entry fee if this wasn't announced way ahead of time, so this is no surprise. I saw the early bird specials come & go. I saw those damn youtube vids and other methods of advocating that people register early to beat the price jump & get the game running on time and so on.

In this situation, I feel that if you didn't get your ticket early, you should get hit with the late fee. It just seems unfair to me that we're going to a tourney to compete like everyone else & we only pay spectator fee. We don't get MAIN STREAM, but we get stream time (like the anime fighters), we get spot designation, and all the stuff that everyone else gets. Also, it's not like the tourney orgs are making bank with these prices. It's so that they can afford to give us another top quality event down the line.

If you don't want to support/pay that much then fine. I see where you're coming from and that's your decision - but at least if you have intent on going to an event you plan ahead and TRY to allocate some money to the side if you know you're gonna be one of those late registrants.

That's just my (unwanted) opinion tho

Also, just to add info to something rodney said: At NEC the VF stations all had lag-free flatscreens & ps3's. Actually we had a whole side of the main ballroom set up for us to get casuals in & so on. Unfortunately most of those stations went unused so tekken replaced those spots (we used like 3 or 4 at most not including the stream station)

45 at the door just to be seated in the back.. LMAO!!!! Cruz you a fool lol! VF always the Side piece.. the girl that gets no mention. Have fun fellas.. This fucking game is dead as JFK... You could'nt revive this shit even if Ryu was downloadable content.

I'm still going though, I'll see you fellas there.

If I make a surprise appearance, would anyone be willing to let me use their stick? #Stickless

I speak honestly or not at all, It's the reason why I choose not to post on the internet much. There's a reason why people still choose to go to side tourneys when the entry fee is that much for other games, they are usually guaranteed at least 25 people minimum while VF is lucky to have that number as a maximum. You see, other communities aren't relying on 4 guys from NYC to make or break things

Chef I am bringing my high grade. We can share that.
