Using your PSN name would speed things up but you can put both if you want.

That'd be neat if you did

Does anyone have an idea on when the best time to have these, Weekday vs. Weekend that sort of thing. 9 or 10 eastern is probably the best time of night so people are off work but I'd like to hear what you guys think.

I signed up for the 360 tournament! When should we have it? Perhaps if we had more regular tournaments, we could all help each other improve.

It would be amazing if we had regular goonbats, maybe a weekly or bi-weekly arrangement. It's hard to find other decent players in my area!

As for the upcoming PS3 set, I'm okay with most weeknights after 5. Friday night or Saturday afternoon would be great.

I'll go on and raise the stakes and give a :siren::supaburn:forums upgrade of your choice to the winners of the PS3 and 360 tournaments, holy poo poo!:supaburn::siren:

I would very much like it to be after this weekend and during the week. I dunno what time works for the most people, 9 PM EST doesn't sound bad. Tournies have been moving to 3/5 so we could go with that. I am gonna hold off on signing up until a time is decided.

Last time there was a requirement that people show up in IRC by tournament start time. That seemed like a good idea.

Not yet, waiting to hear a couple more people's opinions. It'll probably be next week to give people a little bit more a heads up. But let me know what dates do and do not work for you. It won't be much of a tournament if only 3 people can play.

Also nice challonge avatar you jerk :argh:

How are these online things usually run, by the way? Through player matches? Lobbies? I assume IRC is where all the communication happens.

1: Goons join an IRC channel, to confirm attendance and allow for stupid UMvC3 tournament banter.
2: Contenders join a lobby for the tournament. Lobbies have an 8-person limit, so it would be super cool if there were streams for both consoles.
3: Goons battle in a two out of three double elimination format, to see who is supreme at using XF4 Wesker.
4: Both grand final victors get a :pcgaming:free forums upgrade, wow!:pcgaming:

Something like that.

I don't mind doing the 360 stream, given a good enough heads up on the time

You guys mind if I invite a couple non-SA players? They're good players and should bring some interesting flavor to the tournament. This would be for the 360 tournament.

I guess that would be up to the newly appointed Mayor of Goon UMvC3 Tournaments, Ybrik, but I don't see why not.

Plus, if they won, they could receive a fabulous :catdrugs:Something Awful forums account, and be on the bleeding edge of Internet witticisms! Whoa!:catdrugs:

poo poo now I feel obligated to play Haggar. If the prize of them winning is becoming goons then I don't see a problem with it. But if they they don't want to join then lets keep is SA only ok?

:siren:Since no one has thrown out anymore suggestions for when they would like it to be I'm gonna go ahead and set it for Thursday the 24th at 9pm EST/6PST. Please let me know if this works for you and if this becomes a regular thing we can always alter the days so more people get to play.:siren:
