Here's info for the second April online tournament:
What - An online matchmaking casual tournament event for KoF XIII Online. It will be FT10 (4 points), FT7 (3 points), or FT5 (2 points) matchings (optional FT3 [1 point] are optional in case the connection isn't stable enough from the beginning). All players will agree at the beginning of the match on # of matches. In case connections become totally unplayable, matches will be reduced to when both players agree to stop (example: a FT10 can turn into a FT5 or FT3 if it becomes unplayable). All players wins will be tallied, ranked and posted at the end.
When - April 28th (Saturday) starting at 1:00 PM PST, 2:00 PM MT, 3:00 PM CST, or 4:00 PM EST (Stating all NA timezones to avoid confusion like last time). Still working out opportunities for other parts of the world for later. There is no penalty for being late, but of course it's better to be on time go get more action in. The tourney typically lasts 3 hours, but can go on longer if participants are still amped.
Why - Because the netcode patch has really made a different with the online experience for KoF XIII, and it's worth doing this to get everyone playing more.
Who - Anybody! Doesn't even have to be DC members. Play anyone you like. Invite them to DC or chat with them wherever. Doesn't matter who is playing so long as people PLAY!
Where - Games will be played on PSN/XBL (obviously) but players are encouraged to meet up in the Main KOF 13 Online Chat Lobby (http://tinychat.com/kof13) and sign in with psn_ or xbl_ in front of your DC name (example: psn_solidshark). If you cannot make it there (or really prefer other means) then use PSN chats or XBL parties. Skype is an option, however I do recommend doing as LITTLE on your internet connection as humanly possible in order to have a more solid, stable, online experience. Remember to WIRE in as well: wireless NOT recommneded!
How - Fill out the following form:

Looking forward to seeing who shows up. :)
Also... just want to point out that a lot of people have been misunderstanding how to do the speed/ping test. It says connect to a server FARTHEST away from your own connection, not closest. Your sub -20 ms pings are irrelevant to distanced netplay. Just sayin'...

No prob Calibur; you can vy for dominance in the May tournies.
-
Should I join this one? Easter kicked my ass last time, making me unable to join last tourney.
We'll see, depends on what happens.
-
Should I join this one?
The real question is, why shouldn't you join?
-
I might show up depending on how hump day for work is treating me fatigue wise and how stable the connections are that week. Last time my connections were wonky on my end all weekend.

I'm not 100% sure I'd be able to make this one. If memory serves I was also busy during the last one we had, but if my schedule clears up then I'll definitely be here.
-
I'm a little unsure if I'll be able to attend this tournament. I have work later that evening. But if the tournament were to be over before 5pm maybe I could participate. But I kinda doubt it. But if anyone's up for some regular matches, here's my PSN:

For your timezone the tournament starts around 3pm, so you can get some matches in before work if you like. And there is one a week from tomorrow, so come to whichever you think you can make.
-
I'll join this one. I can't get the test right now so i'll post results later (I do test on my main PC, I'm on a wireless laptop right now). For now I'll leave this as a placeholder.
Characters: Kensou, Leona, Mai (Tecnically all speed characters)
Matchups: I don't care, I just wanna fight for now.
I'm predicting I can make it so hopefully nothing comes up tomorrow.
