Impact Clash II: Gift & The Curse Tourney October 11th @ GA World Congress Atlanta GA

Basically the tournament will work in this fashion:

General rules:
- Unless otherwise stated, you will always pick the same character/team if you win.

I want all of you to remember the Georgia World Congress Center is owned by the State of Georgia. Therefore, it has a police force that specifically works for the GWCC. If any problems happen, I will not hesitate to call them and since they are right on the premises it won't take long for them to come. So please, I don't want any trouble from anyone.

It will be a bring your own controller/stick tournament. We are not responsible for your equipment so make sure you keep up with it. Make sure your equipment is functioning properly as if any malfunctions or intermittent during any matches will cause you to forfeit the match in progress. For this reason we discourage the use of any wireless controllers/sticks. The judges will be the sole one determining the outcome if any problems like this were to occur.

Buttom mapping/shouldering will not be allowed unless explicitly stated in the rules. Button mapping is when you program one button to input two buttons at once. (I.E. Lp+RP) This is not allowed. It is fine if you need to re-program your buttons at the beginning of the match any way you need to but not in this manner. So if for example you are playing a traditional street Fighter game your buttons should be:

Light Punch
Medium Punch
Fierce Punch
Light Kick
Medium Kick
Roundhouse

That's it. No triple punch or triple kick.

We have a website to promote the event at Impactclash.com. If anyone has any input or suggestions feel free to email, PM, or IM me. Let me know of any ways to make the tournament better or any extra rules needed as I am not perfect and I will listen to what users have to say.

Would you like to see a game listed for tournament play which is not here? Let us know and we'll make sure to add any game that people request which can be played tournament style on consoles. Just PM me or write a post in this thread and we'll make it happen. We'd be no where with you, the community.

Television w/ PS2
Television w/ Dreamcast
PS3 (We only need like two so make sure your name is on the list)
Arcade Cab (2x people in free)

Looks like some people are coming up from Florida? I'm going to school in Statesboro. If you guys want to pass through here on your way to ATL, rest a bit, play a VF match or two, please let me know. My place is pretty small and there will be no elaborate setup, but hey, VF is VF no?
