We are also thinking of having a small SF4 tourney, for research purposes but also for a small little prize. Open to members or paying non-members! Reply to vgssquared@gmail.com if interested.
Tournament Details:
The version of Brood Wars to be played is v1.16.1. It will be 1v1, will be a preliminary round after which players will be put into "winner" and "loser" brackets. Once these brackets have been set, the each bracket will be ladder style single elimination, with the final match being played between the top player from each bracket. During the preliminary round, each match will have a 30 minute limit. Also, the first 16 people to sign up will be ensured a spot, the rest will be put on a waiting list, due to tournament logistics. As well, if the tournament is not concluded by 9:30 pm, it will be continued the following week.
