Grand Theatre 14 - short drive down the street

6 days remaining!

The shop's number is 337 456 6887.

It's still four days until we leave and I'm already FREAKING OUT ABOUT THIS TOURNAMENT. IT'S GONNA BE SO MUCH FUN MY HEAD WILL LIKELY EXPLODE!

*deep breath*

I imagine it will be awesome on the level of wandering around the street of Indy at 10 pm looking for a Hooters, and the subsequent tomfooleries. I'm really excited about this whole shindig, really and truly. It's a chance to reunite with old friends (YOU BETTER HAVE TOOFIS THIS TIME!), and play some great games.

COUNTDOWN - 95 hours to go

What's a toofis?

I'll have some fruits, punches and mini sandwiches to help you guys out a bit on the loooong event. There's a deli 3 doors down, a smoothie shop 6 doors down and an ice cream shop about 10 doors down on the same strip.

Remember: Bring your own beer.

Also, it's a very new shop and I'm not sure if I'll have my credit/debit machine up and working on time so maybe some cash just in case... cross fingers.. angel.gif

72 hours until go time.

WHATS A TOOOOFIS??? BLASPHEMY!

Toofis can be located here http://nfxon.livejournal.com

Toofis will be in full effect, 30 hours till vacation time.

Lol.. bring Toofis. He'll be welcomed at the nearby swamps.. he may never leave Louisiana.

Countdown - 35 hours!

8hrs 17mins left to go!!!

Man.. it's going to be a long and fun weekend.

If anyone has the time...a day one standings list would be appreciated.

sry, don't have the list on me... it's at the shop and a copy of the results/standings are with MegaGeese (Wakeen). I do have the champs though.

23 players in attendance. ceejaybee's group didn't make the trip.. financial issues was the reason. Understandable but they surely missed out. I am very disappointed that the regionals kit did not have playmats as advertised nor the foiled Red Lotus like the Desert Wars had. We instead got foiled Lighthearted... I think that's the name.

The GCC Singles Champ is Jon Herr fronting Donovan defeating Alex Marco who fronted Chun Li in the finals.

The Drunken Master is Brian Harris (aka Nubian_God) defeating Ben Shoemaker (aka Nfxon) in the finals.. this event was hilarious.. they want to do it again without a trophy for sh*ts and giggles. For the record, this event was a 7-pack sealed Legacy event.

Pix will be up sometimes next week.

We only had time to run 2x events and no one showed interest in the 6x1 nor the Highlander event so it may be just the 2 team events tomorrow.

More to come later. I need some rest.

Actually, Thai, you've got the results for Singles - I left them at the shop xD

I've got the ones for Teams and Double Dragon. I vaguely remember how Drunken Master went. I just need the info on who was playing what to get up an accurate report for singles (how many Chun-Li, etc.).

This event was epic - the initial, bare bones report is up in the thread dedicated to this in GenD.

k, I'll try to get that up sometimes.. this year.
