Train Info: Take the LIRR to Ronkonkoma Station.
Contact me ahead of time to arrange a ride.

Sundays @ 3pm

Tourney Format: Double Elimination, Best-Of-3 games, default settings and Evo2k standards<ul>[*]$15 for your first game
$10 for other games
$5 to play in just the casuals. (includes arcade machines. Just ask me for free tokens.)
-$5 from the final fee for anyone who brings equipment.

(Entering any game in the tourney already gives access to play in casuals.
So no, you will not have to pay an extra $5 for the casuals.)[/list]I'll post a pic soon so you know who I am. Basically, look for the guy with long dirty-blonde hair. I'll probably be holding a clipboard and a megaphone or something. The Castle Golf crew knows me as Eddie, but I do prefer to be called Cla especially at tourneys/sessions.

I am running weekly tourneys and casuals at Castle Golf here on Long Island. This is basically how it will break down:

Each week will alternate focus on 2D games and then on 3D games.

People are free to bring whatever systems and games they want to play casuals in. (as long as there is room and a free TV, play away.) The "focus" of each week applies only to the tourneys that I will run.

Casuals will run before and after all tourneys. I would like to ask that people avoid playing Best-Of-3 and such during casuals. That takes too long. Please just one game and then the loser goes. I would also like to ask that if you win a lot, please be nice and eventually get off anyway. Casuals that come down to one person always playing and winning get lame.

People are always encouraged to suggest games for the tourneys, by the way.

Arcade fighting games that Castle Golf has:<ul>[*]Capcom Vs SNK2
Marvel Vs Capcom 2
Tekken 4
Killer Instinct
Ultracade machine with SF1, SF2, SF2: Championship, SF2:Turbo, Fatal Fury III, and much more.[/list]The consoles and tv will be set up on the food tables behind the fighting game arcade machines on the left when you walk in. There is tons of seating.

By the way, for food: There is a Burger King right next door to Castle Golf. Castle Golf sells only candy and popcorn and whatnot. Maybe drinks, I don't remember.
