Final Notes: When I said that I’ll provide all food and drinks I’d like to get recommendations of what my participants would like. Chips, hot dogs, burgers, chick fila nugget trays?? I’m all ears. I’m hosting this tournament to give Atlanta players and southeast some love and to provide a very competitive and socially engaging good time.

Pre register by sending $10 to Kainenj@gmail.com on Paypal or pay $13.00 at the door the morning of the tournament.

Paypal me your Name, gamer tag you're planning to use and location coming from.

Good luck to all and post in here if you're participating.
 
What bad timing for me. I will be out of town that weekend. I hope we can do more tourney's in the ATL area in the future. Hell I would even host one in my store.
 
What store do you work at? I'd love to help with future tourneys. Sucks you'll be out of town. Also if you ever want to get together and hang and do some offline casuals pm me on here.
 
I work at a Home Beer Brewing store in Marietta called Brewmasters Warehouse. Not really video game related but we have space enough in the back of the store for a small tourney (32 probably would be max), plus we have free beer on tap. Although I would love to be at the tourney don't fell bad for me. I will be in San Diego at the National Homebrewers Conference drinking delicious beers basically all day every day. I will definitely PM you for some casual games. I am not so great right now but getting better. This is the first MK game I have been into since playing MK2 in the arcades.
 
Haha awesome, yea I'm definitely not feeling bad for you anymore.......actually I'm pissed I'm not going. Yea man hit me up anytime.
 
THIS HAS BEEN SWITCHED TO PS3 for reason that EVO is on ps3 and a lot of players coming to this are planning on going to EVO as well.

Also any requests for food? assorted sandwiches? chick fila nugget trays? fruit? chips? what kind? Come on im serious i want to provide for you guys. Im just not bring 30 + filet Mignons.

Oh and I also wanted to post that ive gotten numerous adds on xbl and ps3 as well as private messages on MKU and TYM where people have googled MK Tourney atlanta and are coming to this.

So far this has been really cool and its shaping up to be a real nice MK exclusive tourney with casuals on side. A great place to showcase your skills in front of your GA and southern players as well as the Stream I will provide.
 
I want in! I'll probably have to pay $13 at the door cuz Idk how to send money to an email address. But I'm ready to own!! For food, I would suggest spicy chicken sandwiches from Chik-fil-a, I mean it is a "Southern" tournament and I can't think of anything more southern than that. Oh, and lemonade to drink! Question is this tournament indoors or outdoors?
 
How well are you advertising this? Fliers? Facebook? Other forums? Atlanta is a 5 hour drive, I might come but I don't want to drive that far for a tournament with only 20 dudes.

EDIT: Nevermind, I don't want to play it on Xbox lol
 
Killa 313:
I'm going to allow 10.00 at the door due to confusion w using paypal and sending money. Bring as many as you can, this really is shaping up to be a great tourney

gdlupev: Rock!!!! Glad to have u and yes chick fila sounds killer might get a few nugget trays and lemonade - thanks for your interest and looking for a great time. The tournament is inside as air conditioned. I don't want a bunch of smelly people around :)

Critical: I'm adverting this on trmk mku tym Srk and online as I play a lot. PLEASE NOTE IT IS ON PS3 now due to heavy demand and that all other majors including evo are on ps3 so u should be fine :)

Sheeva saibot: sorry we aren't reloating anytime soon lol
 
One last note - my HD stream equipment came in so stream will occur w player interviews and commentary. I'll poststream link soon
 
Parking instructions:

If you can't find a space in the back here's where you can find free close parking:

Here is the map of the parking locations on Georgia Tech campus:
http://www.parking.gatech.edu/PublishingImages/Parking Map.pdf

You are going to want to tell people to park in lot E52 (it is purple on the map and basically in the center of campus). It is called Peter's Parking Deck and the entrance is on 4th and Fowler Street. It should be free on the weekends, so people can just roll right in. There will definitely be ample parking for everyone.

To get from the house from there, head out the entrance and follow Fowler Street. Take the first right on 5th Street and head up the hill. We are the last house on the left right before the bridge. It is Phi Sigma Kappa and the address is 825 Techwood Dr.
 
Man that was tons of fun - Wish i could do that every week.

Major shout outs to everyone for coming and helping out with the TVs and PS3.

Dque - Some spectators who came brought out the video camera for your cyrax, not for anyone else, i dont know if you know this. LOL, you're cyrax is a massive punish machine and those 60%+ combos no xray were sick. Really admire your cyrax

Cyusstrike - Loved watching your sub zero and kitana skills. I thought i knew from Sub zero players on this site what a Sub Zero BNB combo looks like until i saw yours with the double freeze...great stuff. Ive never seen fans that fast from kitana w combos to punish it through. Great stuff man, look forward to more matches

GDF - Great kung lao, very defensive and offensive and you got almost to losers finals. One thing i noticed yesterday was everyone that was there could "ball" and they what they were doing, great to see.

Subzerosmokerai - Loved the smoke and great to finally meet you. We had some good mactches casually and in the tournament. Thank you so much to you and your brother for bringing the TVs and PS3s. Major help man!!!

Sk8erleap - i wish you guys on the stream could have saw more from his reptile cause we were playing casual games a lot and his reptile was sick. definitely automatic 40%+ combos on punish and great use of dash. He figured out my mileena near end of casuals and ruined her a few times. great stuff

Jay - really great meeting you, super nice guy and funny as hell. I thought one of the best kung laos there and then when we played in losers Semi you bring out Stryker??? AHHHH Nooo, LOL. Ive never seen stryker played like that and really was tough. Love to get more games in.

Beeneeweenees - KANO!!!! Glad you made it out man and thanks for bringing the most bad ass lagless monitor ive ever seen. Really enjoyed the casuals w corey and you before and after. Your kano was making noise on people, took out some really good players., Love to do more sometime.

Lordofthefly - Dude, those were the most intense matches ever, we've played so many offline games and those were about as epic as epic can be. momentum changes were huge each round and match to match, we both went streaking in grand finals. You have the best NW out of any MK player and im totally comfortable claiming that. You're combos with him are unlike any ive seen offline, tourneys, online, streams, anything. You are the lord of the NW. Really looking forward to playing more. Also major props to you for getting to Winners finals without losing, you beat a lot of great players. your Match with JAY was epic.

Pixie - i was wrong to some degree, im loving the sub and you and cyussstrike need to talk ASAP about buffing that sub because he's got mad skills with him. I was trying to watch him on the side to see if i could later help you. Really looking forward to our offline Tuesday Throwdowns we've talked about organizing. You got some great potential and i really want to help with it. MAJOR PROPS for bringing the tournament tv we streamed from and ps3. MAJOR HELP!!!!! really appreciate your support through whole event. It was great to meet WILL as well. Great guy!
