Lol. Well... I talked to Pierre and he said I could ahead and post it. Being the SC community we should be responsible for the SC hype.

Also, as a reminder... since the venue is 18+, this event is 18+
 
I want and could go there but that's an expensive travel for playing 5, 6 person in a tournament.
Hoping to come back here in 2, 3 weeks and seeing more entrants.

Also is this played on PS3? I can only really play Xbox360 for now.

Edit : It is. Sorry about not noticing.
 
5-6 persons ? Last time we did the monthly tournament, we had around 20 participants... Don't take the confirmation in this post as the real number of participants, a lot of people are not bothering checking this website for some reasons... Anyway, I am expecting that we go over 30 participants since some people from Toronto will be there !

Also, the tournament is on PS3... I prefer the X360, but I can't do much about that. I have bought a controller which is similar to the Xbox 360 controller, it does the job fine for now.
 
Ok guys, I've updated the tournament entry with the tentative schedule and the registration info. Also, this is a reminder that online registration is the ONLY way to get access to the event.
 
Thing is... it's a somehow small venue, and they need some sort of feedback as to the amount of participants. I agree, it's really restrictive, but that's the only way. I'm not even sure if they'll have spectator passes.
 
Because I just saw this, the new schedule:

Saturday June 2nd

11:00am – Soul Calibur 5
12:00am – SFxT (Teams)
1:00pm – Mortal Kombat 9
3:00pm / 4:00pm – Super Street Fighter 4 AE 2012
8:00pm – Ultimate Marvel VS Capcom 3

Sunday June 3rd

11:00am – King Of Fighters 13 & SkullGirls (Sponsored by Autumn Games & Skullgirls)
1:00pm – Soul Calibur 5 Top3 / Mortal Kombat 9 Top3 / SSF4AE Top8 / UMVC3 Top8
