This blog is dedicated to the Fighting Game Community of Iowa and my experiences within. It will cover Smash, Street Fighter, and everything in between. From personal tournament logs to helpful tips to newcomers.
"In our judgment, by not making a good-faith effort to win, Justin intentionally underperformed. As a result, he forfeits the prize associated with the EVO 2011 Tournament Series portion of this event: his placement points. "Justin was also issued a yellow card for this violation, meaning any further rule violations during the Evo tournament series this year will result in a full disqualification from the Evolution World Championships in July.
"Since we do not have any clear evidence of collaboration between players, we can only penalize the player whose performance reflects intentional underperformance. Noel Brown will still receive points for fighting his way into the Loser's Final match, as matches up to that point do not reflect evidence of any collusion or intentional under-performance. We feel the recorded evidence is clear, and internal action on this matter began immediately following the match."On one hand, this decision is good for the spirit of competition. It shows that Evo will not tolerate this sort of action from anyone including top players like Justin. It sets a solid precedent for future occurrences.
"I should probably be finishing my homework right now, but I decided to start this blog instead. I’m not naturally good at many things. Honestly, MvC2 and MvC3 might be one of the few things I have some natural talent in. I know a ton of people who want to get better, but have no clue. I have a Dazzle video capture device that I bought for Smash, but I never play anymore. So I decided to make this blog to tell people how not to suck."
"Well, we didn't do King of the Hill format. We did a double elim bracket that Mike rigged so that me, Mike and Olli were on one half and Chevy, James and Jackie were on the other half. Olli only lost to me and Mike. Basically one of us three was going to place lower than one person on the other half of the bracket, lol.
ps - Mike totally rigged it that way on purpose, I saw him re-roll the dice he used to figure bracket placement like a million times. heeheehee"
Place: Comic World, 4031 Pennsylvania, Dubuque, IA 52002
Time: 6:00 every Tuesday night, please try to arrive by 5:30 for warm-ups and sign-ups.
Fee: $3, with $2 for prize money and $1 for venue/equipment fund.
Format: Double-elimination unless we get 5 or less, then we'll do round-robin/king of the hill. Best of 3 matches.
System: PS3. Bring your own controller, plz.
A note about the entry/venue fee/winnings: $1 of every entry fee will be put toward getting a monitor and eventually a dedicated setup for the tourney, as will my winnings if I place. If we end up with 6 or less people, it'll be winner take all. More than that and top 3 will pay out. If there end up being enough complaints about it, I'll change things, but that's the plan. Dubuque once had a dedicated tourney scene and I'd like to see that happen again.
