Thanks Lumi. I was trying to be SAPooky's right hand... man. :P
I gotta thank all the guys who jumped in to commentating too. Cactaur
and Gieroad were naturals in this respect. Thanks oaks. Your commentry
was sick and bad. (Right?)
I liked the photos, I shoulda taken the cover of the tablet off, the
quality woulda been better.
Di and double-Di (you see what I did there?) were real scary looking.

Super salty dude was having me worried, but he changed his story when I
called LB to explain. His take was that LB paused twice, so LB should have
lost 2 rounds. I'm damn sure LB paused twice during the "forfeit" round
when I told him to remove the cables from the controllers.

Like I said, he changed his story when LB was called over. LB
confirmed what I saw, and then SSD wasn't sure anymore.

The time issue was caused by a couple of things.
Least time wasted - This was usually when we were looking for a player
who was currently in another game's match.
Most time wasted - this was a tie between casual play and controller
seekers, because well, one was making issues for the other.
I could have easily fixed the controller seeker issue too if I'd known
the random tournie was going to use 2 of the PS3 controllers I brought. I
could have brought 2 PS2 controllers as well specifically for the random
tournie.
It would have saved all the time SAP used to reconfigure controllers
over and over again. In fact SAP, I'm going to bring my 2 PS2 controllers
to every session/event from now on. I have 4 or so USB adapters to go with
them. This way there will be a decent cable length as well.

Live and learn eh?

Yeah, props to you Nic. You definitely played a big role in keeping
things happy and cheerful on the day.

The LB sway had that dude super salty, it was hilarious seeing him get
upset at the BS that he was getting hit by. He seemed to strongly
disapprove when LB walked away the winner. If you're getting scrubbed out
then it probably means you're a scrub too so don't hate :P

I think the format used was good, the only thing I'd maybe consider
for next time is to maybe have 3 games instead of 4. It'll make things
easier from a time management perspective and if it does finish early
there's time for casuals and general messing around too.

Hehe.



Anyways, thanks Sap for organising and running another CTS. Good
work. The day was fun.

Cheers Nick on helping out with the random admin stuff.



Well done to all the winners.



The bushido blade match was awesome. Also LB with his ‘sway, sway’ in
the Tekken and his super salty opponent who kept coming back to complain
to
the judges about the pausing, despite LB having given him the round. That
dude looked like he was leaving to go and hurt some puppies.



I wonder if it’s not worth doing the finals straight away after the
matches. Towards the end there, it was really just the core group left.

I wonder if they weren't perhaps in the car going the wrong way on
the N1?

LOL
