THE RETURN of Slammin' Saturday Nights @ web2zone:

    Alright VF Guys we had a great time last time now its time for us to do it one more time so check it out.


    The last web2zone event that we threw was a SMASHING success. Over 70 players showed up for several tournaments and casuals. We had 3 tournaments with over 25 entries each! YOU THE PLAYERS came out and showed that we can really make shit happen.

    WELL I'm pleased to announce some extremely good news: The owners of web2zone were SO impressed, we are DRASTICALLY UPGRADING for this event!

    The Date: Saturday April 28th
    The Time: 12 Noon-Midnight
    The Price: $10 cover
    The place: web2zone (Internet Cafe & Video Game Center)
    54 Cooper Sq (Cafe Area)
    New York , NY 10003
    212-614-7300

    The Skinny:

    -MORE TVs
    -MORE games
    -MORE space (we get to use BOTH upstairs and downstairs)
    -MORE time (the event starts at 12 noon and ends at midnight)
    -MORE official tournaments
    -LESS lag (tournaments will NOT be held on laggy LCD tvs but on brand new tube TVs purchased for this event)
    -A megaphone so we can actually call players for their turns and they'll hear us

    OFFICIAL tournaments/ranbats to be held:

    -SF3: Third Strike (had 33 entrants last time!) $2 entry
    -CvS2 $2 entry
    -Super Turbo $2 entry
    -Marvel vs. Capcom 2 $2 entry
    -Guilty Gear XX Slash (entry TBA)

    Also, Virtua Fighter 5 as well as Tekken DR will be in the house on HDTVs.

    I am thinking of turning the downstairs into the "casuals lounge" and using the upstairs into the tournament area, but that will be determined at a later date.

    Parking is next door and is $25 flat rate for all day long. There is also LOTS of good food in the area.

    SPECIAL NOTE: if you are sick PLEASE PLEASE stay home. Last time a lot of people caught a nasty bug from someone who was sick and still came. This should be avoided this time since we will not all be crunched up downstairs, but still, please use your heads and take care of yourselves.

    Also anyone who farts in the tournament area will be subject to immediate DQ/bannage from Web2zone. That shit was RANK last time!


    I hope to see just as many people, if not MORE, come out for this event! This will be perfect practice for Evo East which is only 1 month after this event.

    thanks haya...alright here is some news.


    - we recently purchased 2 additional CRTS to increase our count to 6 crts 1 hdtv and 2 lcds

    -we also purchased 2 Nintendo wii's and one ps3. With the ps3, we will get T5:DR on it.


    That being said I will see if I can have someone post or post myself on TZ, VFDC, and DOAC


    To add to that I will have kasumi chan post on PMS website so we get this to be bigger then last time.

    I MAY add SSBM since it is part of evo.

    Here is an update:

    Ps3 was out of stock at the store we usually buy things from. What I will do is either do the following :

    1 - I will rent a ps3 for the event for people to play
    2 - offer anyone + 1 person free entry to the event who brings a ps3.


    I am gonna do my best to get this settled...sorry for the long reply...I hope to see some of you there.
