    well less ppl yea but I think better quality I reckon. Plus more practise with some ppl slightly higher skilled than urselves which was good for me. I got some good sarah practice. Still room for improvement tho I say.

    About the pricing system steve maybe u shud try monthly trnys. Ask a survey about this and see their response. Plus u got less to pay but more prizes can be given. I dunno, can't hurt to ask.

    Done the monthly thing with Dynamic League.

    Its more or less the same. £115 for a van plus handing out money for higher ranking ppl doesn't generate enough money on a monthly basis.

    Now say if I was to do this monthly... I would actually be making a major loss.

    If I was to give 7 refs £5 each, plus £100 for the tournament. = £135
    I will need 45 ppl to turn up to break even. If I was to give prizes of a game, have 4 titles playing at one time = £200 + £135 = £335

    This means I've made a loss of £200.. This means if I hold it every month, I'll be making a total loss of £2400 or more.

    Now considering only 40 ppl came on the 12th.. it would not be worth the loss.

    having it weekly is better.

    rich (ragingsilver) was the ref taking the scores, his sarah is getting interesting i must say, just needs to learn her strongest combos and flow charts to become even more solid.

    not in response to anybody inparticular, it was a fun event, but i kinnda lost my yomi at the last few hours, got tired and drowsy since i showed up pretty early. i noticed that i have a completely different frame of mind when i sit down to Ryan or Odu and it's starting to be a pretty bad weakness... (nice to know i can get double exellented in one after the other too.. /versus/images/graemlins/smirk.gif) but hey, i know when i've met a far better opponent interms of offence and rection.. the TEing was very solid.. /versus/images/graemlins/cool.gif

    very nice play.

    respect to all the veterans that turned up, you all made it memorably fun, and i learned alot about my play, and others. power to optimusomega for being the only person to take off odu (other than ryan of course).. and power to VO for keeping the tradition of beating me down with vanessa.. /versus/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

    now i'm gonna get practicing...

    Now that I received evo the other day, I'm really going to make an effort to train and compete next month. I know the theory, it's just a matter of improving my reflexes and timing so that all my knowledge becomes practical.

    What's the general character preference at the tournaments, are all the characters well represented?

    Who's Van?

    Steve if you bring a Pal copy of Tekken Tag I can bring a game acclerator to boost it to 60hz. All I need do is put it in in the beginning then replace discs and then you don't need to use it again. But as you say the experts are having their own Tekken Tag comp in Casino so save it for the following week.
