haha xeris, i'm so sorry. I'm not part of the organizing committee anymore, so I didn't know about it until yea...... wednesday night I think lol, and it was through a facebook invite
|
ya shucks... my 2 best friends go to berkeley and i've been planning on visiting for awhile and would be nice to play some bw while there, but too short notice.. perhaps the next one =D I always seem to miss out on these
|
FFFFuck byoc... what am i going to do. I dont think I can bring my own computer, dont want to transport it on bart lol
|
hahah damn
supwolf was asking me about the next one like ... yesterday D:
|
OH MY LAWD!!! We always get such notice, hopefully AAA can personally post it themselves next time -_-;; I think I can go! Get the Berkeley class to go too hahaha
I'll bring a camera, someone else bring a videocamera please. Hopefully I can make it on such short notice
|
I might go, but dunno if i have time to be there for the whole thing... Maybe i can get my roommate to come and we can play some brawl 
|
Go Heathen, I crave a rematch!
|
i wanna transfer to berkeley...
|
I echo sentiments that these sorts of things need to be announced at least... a month? in advance.
|
My brother is working tonight and won't be there until like 1:30 if it's still running, so can I play on someone's laptop? I can bring my own mouse/mousepad/keyboard!

congrats to suppy for coming back from wayyyy behind in the loser's bracket.
pulled a jaedong vs fantasy comeback
|
I had to beat Zeko in two best of 3's to win. I almost lost vs Zalfor because I lost the first game and he had some very clever strategies that almost worked - Heathen left after he lost to Zeko so I was sad I didn't get to rematch him because I'm positive I could have won :D Next I 4-0'd Zeko in the finals to win. The first game was really good
|
those strategies will work...next time
|
Can anyone contact some of the event organizers so I can get some replays of games I played + pictures of the LAN + video of the LAN? From the last LAN we didn't get any of the video they recorded. I'm thinking next LAN we should mandate all replays saved + sent to some guy so I will compile a simple highlights video, and I won't forget my camera next time
|
Ill be uploading photos shortly
|
The Finals...
Superiorwolf
Zeko
Zeko vs Heathen
|
The finals were actually projected later when some router problems were fixed, but that was the first game. It was just me and Zeko + ACA[zc] in the room playing head to head, it was pretty cool. Nice pictures man, thanks for posting them I will remember to bring my camera/videocamera next time!!!

These were the brackets iirc as I did this off memory. I'm not sure of all the games won/lost and the loser's bracket worked a bit differently than this bracketmacker generated, since I played LastRomantic, not Retsukage. Other of the matches were incorrect too in the loser's bracket, but overall I think that the winner's bracket is all correct and the loser's bracket shows the general movement of things. Heathen left after getting 2:1d by Zeko, and he was the 1st place over me last LAN so I was kinda upset not to get to re him. For anyone interested:

BTW, anyone know how to contact some of the organizers of the event, so I can try to get some of my replays? I was playing on other people's computers because my bro wasn't there until the finals started o.o . Also @ GTR, iirc there were quite a few people watching Zeko too, just not in view of the camera... dunno though I was focusing on the game, the first game was hella intense :O
