Anyone interested in organizing a KoF XIII tournament for Thursday Night Throwdown at GameCenter? I would like it to take off there, but I can't get down there at all. Please let me know and I'll help you out any way I can.

I usually go down there for the Marvel tourney, I'll talk to Jay about it and see if there's interest enough to warrant a tournament. The issue is that Marvel and AE run at the same time, we may be limited with setups.

I see...Hn, well that is a problem. I'd let you use my PS3, but lugging it to school, getting it back from you, etc. Would just be a problem for both of us since you don't have a car. Hmmm...Gotta be something.

Well it turns out I probably won't make it to Gamecenter this Friday, as I have to work late. I was wondering, though, is the place set up to allow people to use their own sticks? As I understand it, their console games are installed in arcade cabs, so I was just curious.

Hey guys. I volunteer at the Sacramento Central Library downtown. Once a month I set up gaming stations that features different games. I try to give it a social arcade feel. I mostly put out SSF4AE, UMvC3, MW3, SSBM for everyone to come in to play. I know it sounds weird that it is in a library, but the rooms I use are not directly in the library. check out the website http://www.librarygalleria.com

Starting in January, I am adding KOFXIII to the list. If I was putting an event together this month, I would have it available too. The area is a 1600 sq foot room that can easily fit 60+ people in it.

The library is encouraging me to fill a 5400 sq ft galleria to host tournaments in. I have a lot of plans that I would love to do, but I need more people to come out. All of this stuff is free for me to use, and I want to use all of it!

I usually host this on the last Saturday of each month from 12-5p.  It's right off of 7th and I, so it's easy to locate from B-80 or I-5.  There is free parking available 2 blocks down from the library.

I would totally be down to play in a TNT KOF tourney, although idk how useful I'd be in running it lol.  Is the next TNT tomorrow?

Potentially might be running KOFXIII at the next Norcal Install, too. D:

I'm glad Starbase is getting there with KOF XIII.

But seriously, what happened at GameCenter? Who was running this thing and what the heck happened? I know it's all impromptu, but this is something we can't repeat. Not just GameCenter KoF on the line, but KoF in Norcal needs exposure and we lost a chance tonight.

Any thoughts or some insight? I'm just real peeved.

They made me run the tourney... and all I had to work with was one setup.  No offense to the new players who showed up (you're godlike for competing this early!), but there were a lot of matches that went to the last game with time outs and stuff.  Keep in mind the setup was never empty either; I always kept someone on deck to play since it was dragging out so long.  My suggestion: GC needs to hold a KOF only tourney day, instead of having it on TNT.
