Check out the Fighting Games 2012 Thread if you want detail on the placings. pachi (the TC for this thread and that thread) did an amazing job with listing each event, and the Top 8 for past events if you want an idea of who's the most consistent players. Most Japanese players don't go to these events, therefore they don't have much/any points. The "Notable Competitors" list in the OP is good. In that regard I noticed something. Why is Nuki listed even though he won't be at EVO this year? I thought Nuki was coming? Didn't think he'd be competing in anything but the ST tournament though. Nope, his grandmother died recently, so he won't be coming.

Not everybody knows. He registered but he had to cancel apparently due to a death in his family.

I mean, it's a private matter, and it's not like there was a press release or anything. I think he announced it on twitter or something.
The indie game panel has started, for those interested.
Fuudo is on the Virtua FIghter 5: FInal Showdown stream now http://twitch.tv/8wayrun

Anyway, it was/is a pretty big deal, that's why I was surprised.

Hey guys, I don't really follow FGC but hopefully the calendar/streams are set up OK. Also I put a strikethrough for Nuki in the OP since people were saying he didn't attend due to death in the family.
