Yea, understand your frustration but it's not their fault Calibur players don't show up for their game. Seriously, I'm not mad at Namco or TOs...Calibur community is just bad and looks for scapegoats.
8 people registered for SCV but 2 showed up. Yes, it's the community's fault that so few people registered but putting the budget games at 9am on Sunday instead of the main tourney day (and then not opening the doors until 12 and cancelling SCV and SG then) is more what I'm mad at the TOs about. I think putting the poor games at a shitty time must have affected the no-shows somewhat.
Mostly nonexistent. Over the summer there were 8-9 people, and after the patch they all moved over to different games and left Calibur behind, despite my protests. I only know two or three people who still play now, and even though the tourney would have been free to them they didn't enter (Byakko and IceColdEdge dropped for TTT2 and P4A).
