While we've been preparing a team for Cannes World Cup 2010, the EVO crew has been toiling away getting their next event together. This year's North American championships will take place during the weekend of July 9-11, at the Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas. During last year's EVO, seven tournaments were selected for the main event; this year will be the same. Six games have already been selected: Super Street Fighter 4, SSF4 Ladies' Night, SSF2 HD Remix, Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion, BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger and Tatsunoko VS Capcom.
The final game has yet to be determined! The EVO crew has decided to put a poll together where people can vote for which game should make the list. While Soulcalibur IV is on the list, we have our work cut out for us. We are going against Third Strike, Marvel VS Capcom, KoF12, Capcom VS SNK 2 and Melty Blood: Actress Again. The poll is within a community focused sorely on 2D fighters, so I'm urging all members of this community to please step up, register an account at SRK and vote in the poll for Soulcalibur IV! Keep hope alive! EVO needs more than just Tekken!
*EDIT* Ponder from Shoryuken.Com just game to give us some help with this poll. If you do not yet have an account on SRK, they would normally have ignored your vote on the poll. However, if you plan on going to EVO this year, the guys at SRK are permitting us to vote with new accounts, as long as when you create your account, you list your FULL NAME as your 8WayRun.Com username, instead of your full name. |

By now you should have seen the new donations bar on the top of the front page of 8WayRun.Com. You may have even wondered to yourself exactly what its for. Every $ that is donated using the donation link on the front page will go directly to help fund Team USA's trip to Cannes, for the World Game Cup Cannes 2010 Championships for Soulcalibur IV! Right now, its looking like we can have up to 8 players representing our team, and it costs about $500 per player in order to send them off to France; so we must rely on donations to support them.
If you're wondering how the money will be distributed, allow me to explain. The money will be distributed evenly by percentage, based on the price of each player's tickets. So if we have enough to cover 45% of each player's ticket, then each player will be reimbursed 45% of their ticket costs. By doing it this way, I am able to let each player buy their own tickets, picking the flights they want, at the times they want. The costs will be reimbursed as early as a week before the tournament itself. If you have been elected to represent the USA, and you don't have the ability to buy your tickets on your own, please let me know. If you can't make it, let me know. |

There has been a small change to the schedule! We had to close up the tournament at midnight, and because of that we are stuck at an unplayed Grand Finals! Because of this, Grand Finals will be played on Sunday, as soon as we can; which may be around 1-2pm. As well, I'm not going to build up and breakdown all my equipment for 1 match, so we will be running Grand Finals off of SEB's equipment, and their stream is at Frame-Advantage.Com. So if you are interested in watching Grand Finals, which is Thugish Pond, our current National Champion, versus Maxx Dreamkiller; and you should be, be sure to watch the new stream below.
