Play Time Pizza and friendly house matches

|
Wow, the Play Time Pizza tourney was a blast. There were 23 people who played, and it lasted about 4 hours. Congrats to Crosby ,Tang, and Mike, who won 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place respectively.

Dan, the organizer of the event, said that he plans to turn this into a monthly event, with more than just SF4. I'm stoked about that. Hopefully he'll get bigger and bigger turnouts so he can keep this thing going.

On a side note, I'm hosting some friendly matches at my place this Saturday at 1:00 pm. Everyone is welcome, so come on by at get some practice in against your fellow Arkansans. I live at the Summit House Apartments right behind Park Plaza Mall on University. Give me a call for directions or to get into the building .

Tournament at Play Time Pizza

|
Hey, sorry for the last minute nature of this info, but I just got all the info myself yesterday.

A Street Fighter IV tournament is being held at the Play Time Pizza here in Little Rock. The winner will receive a Street Fighter 2 Hyper Fighting arcade cab. Registration is $5 plus the cost of admittance into PTP, which I believe is $10. You must register by 3:00 pm today. They will be playing on Xbox 360, bring your own controller, and they are starting at 6:00 pm.

I went up there yesterday to sign up and there were about 20 names on the list. Hopefully there will be a big turnout. If you can, check it out. Hope to see you there.

Aftermath

Big thanks to Chris, Derek, Adrian, and Tim for coming out Saturday. We did not really have a tournament because of the number of people, but we played plenty of matches and had a good time. Chris, aka Warpticon, was very interested in building the scene, and I think two heads are better than one for these sorts of things.

On a related note, since Saturday I have received emails from several people interested in playing. The scene is growing slowly but surely. I'm going to be talking with folks to try to get a feel for what people want to do next. When I have an idea I will post it here as well as the SRK forums http://forums.shoryuken.com/showthread.php?t=128780&page=5 .

Tournament Update

Response so far has been low for this weekend, so we will simply be playing at my apartment. I don't think there will be any problems as far as space is concerned, and the added bonus of real furniture is a plus.

Saturday, April 11th at 1:30 pm.
