Venue is at the basement of Game Focus, air con will be available and there will be more room for players as the games have been reduced to 4.

Entry is still £3 per day. Bring your own sticks, controllers and convertors. They are available to buy at Game Focus. 3rd Party PS2s are for hire at £1 (you'll get it back when u return pad).

Rules will be up on the Game Focus website. Here's just a snippet:

Main goal is to win matches. Each match is recorded with the number of rounds noted down. 3 points for a win. 0 points for a lost. There is a win-streak cap of 10 matches. Players must have a "match card" in order to compete. Matches will not be marked if a player has not registered with a "match card". Players will need to bring their laminated Game Focus membership card. Those with no membership card will need to join up. There is no bonus points feature in this league tournament.

At the end of September, we will calculate the final tables and offer a £50 Game Focus voucher to spend in the store to the player in 1st place on each game. Runner-up prizes may follow for 2nd and 3rd place players if 50 or more ppl turn up every day. Basically, the more players we get into the venue every week, the more chance more players will receive prizes.

Is anyone going tomorrow? I don't want to go there just to find no one is there.

 

sorry, sunday is out of the question for me, i'll be there the next saturday.... i don't think archangel is going either, and ryan hart is currently in USA for the evo2k.

mabye other people like daisuke, VOSOR or anyone else will show.

 

I'm not going but like bareknuckle said i'll be there next saturday though. /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

 

Argh, thats a real shame. Looks like it'll be another low turn out. /versus/images/graemlins/mad.gif

Well for anyone who cares, I'll be down there anyway, hopefully someone will be there for some vf4evo.

 

I'll come down on the 16th - back from the States - I think Ryan will be back by then also...

But I may need to set buttons because P2W setup is how I have my buttons. /versus/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

 

It seems to me.....

Tomorrow should be a good turn out for VF

he he /versus/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

 

yah I'll be popping down tomoz too for some EVO action. Hope Ryan comes along, I wanna talk to him about EVO2k in the US, hehehe.

 

I'll be there but Im well out of practice since I haven't played any VF for a long time.

Who won the VF competition at Evo? It doesn't seem to say on this site like it does for the other game sites.

 

1. odu moudo
2. bareknuckle
3. optimusomega

 

I'm definately up for next Sunday (24th). Hope there's a decent Evo turnout that day.

 

Good turn out for vf on saturday, won a few lost a few. Everytime i go there people seem to be getting better, Otimusomega now has a killer Aoi hard to get past that defence,DAkira proabably the person i was most impressed with (no offence to any of the other players) his akira getting so much better every time i face it, not to mention i think he was the only person to knock off odu modu's jeffry, bareknuckle (aka one half of team norbs) still managing to piss me off with his wolf.

I know i'm forgetting a few people but i cant remember everyone's names.

 

Thanks for the compli man but I reckon I played bad! (been out of practise) I had to rely on defence cause I didn't feel my offence was to strong, your Pai is proper tough though, I'll be in training this week /versus/images/graemlins/wink.gif. Yeah Dakira's Akira is getting enough strong, Knees were coming out like low punches /versus/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I can only make it down for Saturday's so if there's a chance Evo will be there next week I'll be there, I know it's not on the schedule but if it's quiet for the other games...?
