Great tournament.  It was very nice to meet so many new KOF players.  You guys were all very cool.  Our next KOF event will be on Saturday February, 11th at a new much nicer venue in Upland, Ca.  Hope you can make it out.

How's parking at this place?

Good question.  Plenty of spots on Pacific Blvd.  They are metered but are free after 8pm.  Before that they're only $1 per hour so it shouldn't cost you more than a dollar to park.  There is also free parking behind the AT&T store on the North West corner of Pacific & Saturn.

I know this is alittle out of hand but can the tournament host please post the bracket up as well? I would like to make player data research so i need that

I will post tournament results.

We have moved the start time to 8pm in order to make it a little easier for those of you that work during the day and have to fight that LA traffic. 

I definitely intend to move these events to Saturdays but I can't do that without strong attendance.  So if you guys want an offline scene for KOF in LA I hope you will do what you can to be there.

Thanks again. 

Hey guys if we get at least 15-20 players for KOF this Thursday I will add a $50 pot bonus out of my own pocket. 

I would also like to remind you that I do not work for this arcade.  I'm bringing all my own equipment and the reputation of my company is on the line so I take these tournaments very seriously.  It sucks to hear about any bad experiences anyone may have had in the past here.  If the owner is a dick and he doesn't like all the business we'll be bringing in for him we will take these tournaments somewhere else.  I can promise that I will do everything I can to put our players first.  That's how EGP rolls. 

Thanks again.  I hope you guys at least check it out.  Let me know if you have any other issues or questions.
