Just like last month, we will once again be doing a "No-Pros" tournament before the main event. Since Serge2HOT4U won last month; he will be barred from entering this month... he will be able to enter the No-Pros event in November.

The following players may not compete in the No-Pros event:
  • Dreamkiller
  • KDZaster
  • MTFighter
  • Ramon
  • Rekki
  • Serge2HOT4U
  • Something-Unique
  • Woahhzz
And here is the schedule for all my tournaments for the year...
  • October 24 UFC 104
  • November 21 UFC 106
  • December 6 (NEC)
  • January 2 UFC 108

Last month we got the same number of attendees as the previous month; and that was with a half a dozen people who randomly couldn't make it; not because they didn't want to come, but because they genuinely had other plans. So thats a win in my book; this month's rules will stay the same as last month.

GameX is a month away and there's still no official information on the actual tournament. Plus the website for the tournament still has a coming soon message on it. And I don't have three days to spend playing fighting games. I wouldn't mess with it unless you are coming primarily for the convention itself.

Unless I am dead broke, I'll see y'all in October.
 
Yo, I'd like to make a 1st round challenge request for Serge in the next singles tournament, =)
 
some of history's greatest warriors fought without pants on. William Wallace, Leonidas, and Shaka Zulu never wore pants and they were feared warriors
 
Hilde being banned is now officially counter productive to the eastcoast..... seeing as though France's world tournament and NEC are both allowing hilde. How are we supposed to prepare for the only two tournaments that matter in the next 6 months.....

If Serge wins, gets up on the chair and starts yelling FREEEEEEEEDOMMMMMM! someone please tape it, lol.

But yeah you really can't no homo this thing, in a modern context. People back then did some pretty gay shit, when they weren't kicking ass.

Wouldn't unbanning bonus characters be counter productive under that same logic? We'll either have to double prepare for Shura and Charizard or it will mess with how we deal with Amy and Cervantes.
 
Jaxel:

You can take me off the list for supporting the Hilde & Algol ban permanently. My final 100% opinion on the issue is that it is stupid and even though its early it made no difference at the last tournament and in fact there were less people than there were at the previous tournament. Also HackerMike looks like he needs his Hilde back and that would provide one more tougher competitor to Koga's as he is handicapped now. I'm pretty sure this post means nothing to u but i'm posting it as I don't support the Hilde/Algol ban for future reference.

Herve:

That logic fails as they were banned from the jump almost everywhere if not everywhere.
 
S-U... there was ONE less person... and we were missing about 8 regulars who couldn't show up (one of them was Rigel), not because of their Algol/Hilde opinions, but because the fiscal year started and they just couldn't make it. We had a lot of people show up at this September monthly that didn't show up at the August monthly. I take that as a success in the long run.
 
Fair enough and yeah I imagine its not because of the Hilde/Algol ban more people didn't show up. But on the other hand I don't think more people will show up because of it as that's what I always thought but I believe it even more now. Regardless I just wanted to put it out there that i'm no longer supporting it that's all.
 
S-U... I've also said MANY times that banning Hilde/Algol isn't about getting MORE people to show up. Banning Hilde/Algol is about preventing more people from NOT showing up. Everytime someone gets beat by Hilde in a tournament, thats just another ounce of frustation and an increase in chances they will leave the Soulcalibur community for other fare, such as Tekken or Street Fighter. So its not about getting more players to tournamnets, its about preventing tournament attendance as it is, from dropping anymore than it has to. Just look at the NorCal community; its dead because of a SINGLE person who uses Hilde.
 
I understand! Its funny that u mention the Norcal community though as I was just asking someone in javachat about that the other day what a coincidence. That shit is dead and I never understood why so if that's the reason damn but i'm not sure if that is the real reason 100% as I remember it used to be huge. At the end of the day I see where u are coming from but since I see slightly differently on the matter i'm just putting it out there that I don't support the method but if it works for u more power to u.
