EVO 2016 - FGC 2016 Season - Forget ducking

[Moridam]

shit, i'm actually going to be in chicago on the weekend of the last redbull event in september. according to google maps the place we're staying in is only a couple miles south of that spot, not sure what the itinerary looks like for that day but i'll see if i can fit a stop in

[Akiyama]

Fucking A.

[Weltall]

I'll be subbing

[Tohmane]

I just landed me a job, once paychecks start rolling in I can justify a sub

[Weltall]

Decided there is no hype in EVO for me and cancelled my Hotel/Plane ticket along with the people I was going with. Anyone want to buy my Sunday pass? Total cost was $66.65 and I will sell it for $50.

[Krandor]

Damn homie, even if you aren't interested in the game it's still a trip to Vegas.

[Weltall]

I've spent more time overseas in 2016 than in the US. Vegas is not appealing in the slightest beyond seeing you guys. My local FGC guys pulled out and cancelled our hotels anyway. So unless someone has an extra bed or wants to get a room together, I'm OUT.

Is Callisto even going? It is getting a little late in the game to know if you should be streaming it or not.

[Deejay]

I honestly can't decide if I want to make the trip or not. My boss keeps urging me to go and I still can't bother myself to actually make the plans

Pretty sure I'll be there for work, but I might be in Thursday night and out Sunday night to save days off to work more events.

As to the last point, you'd be surprised how last-minute a lot of production stuff comes together. A lot of time has to be put towards all of the logistics on the physical side first, the stuff you actually see on stream are the very last thingd to get put together. I didn't have all of the sponsor ads/videos etc. until like an hour before we went live on Friday, lol.

[Weltall]

Speaking of, I may host some BG guys at my place in Nashville if there is enough interest. I could hold any amount of people as long as you guys don't mind couches or sleeping bags. January sucks, which is when KIT occurs, but we have a local arcade and a great bar scene.

CB already weighed in. UA announcement pending. Capcom beat UA to the double tap.

As a result, we are banning Noel Brown from competing in the duration of the 2016 season of the Capcom Pro Tour as a first offense. A second offense will result in a lifetime ban from participating in all future Capcom Pro Tour events. We will use this as a baseline penalty if similar incidents occur in the future.

LOL GTAB!!!!! That is what happens you grab ugly, fat chick ass....

I mean, for real, who the fuck would ever make and advance on someone who sleeps with Andre? Shit is vile...

[Weltall]

So based on numbers:

Final Round maxed a bracket out at 1024 and turned down around 200 (based on word of mouth) other people at the door: 1224

CEO has 616 registered SFV players and I don't think they are doing at-the-door registration: I'll give them 700 to be fair

So from the first US Premier event to the third we have a 57% decrease in attendance.

[Lokus]

Oh shit, Capcom laying down the foot on Noel, he's banned for the rest of the CPT season. Guess now we'll see how this shit is enforced since like Calli said earlier, most of these events aren't solely CPT events. It's a given he can't compete but technically he can still go to events.

Edit: am slow

[Callisto]

eh it also costs like twice as much to take a CEO vacation and that's close to EVO. idk about everyone else but I specifically only don't go to CEO because I can't afford to do both that and EVO in a month's span, I'd be surprised if that's just me.

[Weltall]

It isn't just you, but that amount of drop off can't be contributed to that sole reason. 15-20% drop off likely, but not 57%.

[Krandor]

I wonder if the ban prevents him from coaching, since it's the only way he'd ever make a finals day anyways

Edit : guessing Noel is banned from Evo as well based on the reply on Twitter.

Edit again : Yup, Noel banned from Evo
