That model is way too cute.

 

[Rice-Eater]

Just a quick explanation about my format for those who are curious. This is random select because I wanted luck to play a big factor in the giveaway. Skill still matters, but I didn't want that to be the determining factor. Some players are just better than others, to even the playing fields more that's why I chose to make it random select. I will admit, this will bring down the quality of the matches. But I wanted this to be more like a raffle rather than a tournament for these guys to test themselves.

And if you guys are watching and also SF4 players yourself, you could participate in the game if you like. Say if someone ends up with someone they don't know how to play. Well you can get in there and try to tell them what they should and shouldn't be doing. Hell if you want to sabotage them then be my guest. Audience participation is a factor although the players could very well choose to just ignore us altogether and just do what they want to do.

Again good luck to the participants and if you decide to watch I hope you enjoy it.

 

[Degen]

Cool, I might get to tell Beef how to use Hawk

Lol, I'll be there

[Rice-Eater]

And big shout outs to Kadey for blowing this up. I was just like "yo SFxT is coming out soon, I'll do a give away". Kadey's like "nah dawg, you're doing it wrong, this is how it should be done. Thread on GAF, get Markman and Mad Catz involved, spread the word and get more people to watch".

 

[JJcao]

[Oldschoolgamer]

shoutouts to Rice-Eater for heading this thing and Kadey+Markman for stepping the realness up a notch

 

[black_vegeta]

[goldlion054]

All this so I can get blown up on a stream? Lets go baby!

 

[Rice-Eater]

And another person drops out, Axis(aka Vexco) is out and RB is in. Apparently Vex is feeling unsure about his chances since he can't herp and derp his way to victory(j/k man), no matter RB is stepping up to the plate.

 

[XenoRaven]

I never noticed how angry everyone on the SFxT cover is.

[kevo_huevo]

Please say the Xbox tourney is first. I don't think I'll be available until after 630pm PST. If I'm not logged into ps3 by then, please have someone (maybe the_log_ride?) take my spot.

I'm dont think I'll be home for about another 2 hours

Good luck guys

Kadey is suppose to be hosting both tournaments(so she can stream it as well). I think the plan was to have Xbox first, then PS3.

 

[Professor Beef]

I think the plan was to have Xbox first, then PS3.

That's cool. I have a friend who I'm trying to impress is interested in watching, but has plans right now.
