  1. Will there be a Friday night pre-tournament shindig? I would love to get some games in (and also unload all the gear). I loved AJ's Lounge last year for the 6-pack tournament. Nice little joint right next to the Bills' stadium.
  2. We've got more raffle prizes! The awesome people behind Tecmo Cleveland have graciously offered a FREE entry to their tournament on Saturday, August 5th! Check out their website and sign up if you haven't already! How about a $20 gift card to The Warp Zone? Right down the street from the tournament site in Hilliard, OH, they carry lots of modern and retro games, and are the biggest retro import game store I've ever seen! How about a $20 gift card to Play It! With five locations in Columbus, they have a great selection of new and used games, as well as a great collection of retro game systems! More to come!
  3. Just a few things we're raffling off... Tecmo Bowl Tiger Electronics Handheld Game Bernie Kosar Cleveland Browns Jersey Anthony Munoz Cincinnati Bengals Jersey
  4. You can only come out so far. The game restricts you to moving only a small distance outside the crease, making it a higher priority to come out of the goal as far as possible in most circumstances to cut off angles.
  5. Post-tournament Dirty Frank's and 16-bit Arcade last year was awesome. Maybe we'll make it Tatoheads and Old North Arcade this year. Dawn rules.

The top two players in each bracket will go to the Gold Bracket. The eight players that lose their first two games will go to the Bronze Bracket. The other 16 players will go to the Silver Bracket, with their placement in the bracket occurring based on when their second loss happens during the tournament. Gold Bracket: The eight players that make it out of the first phase will be placed in another eight-man, double-elimination bracket with prizes going to the top four players. Silver Bracket: The 16 players that do not either finish in the top two places in their bracket, or do not lose their first two games in their bracket, will go to the Silver Bracket. This will be a single-elimination tournament, with prizes going to the top two players. Bronze Bracket: The eight players that lose their first two matches will be placed in the Bronze Bracket. This will be a single-elimination tournament with the winner receiving prizes. PRIZES: 1st - $300 2nd - $150 3rd - $75 4th - $50 Silver Champion - $75 Silver Runner-up - $25 Bronze Champion - $25 RAFFLE DRAWING: In the afternoon, there will be a raffle drawing for various NFL, Tecmo, and Video game-related prizes available. Prices for the raffle tickets and the prizes available will be made available soon. 100% of the raffle prize money will be allocated towards the tournament winnings. RULES: 1. Team Selection & Coin Toss: A manual coin-flip will precede each game. The coin-flip winner will choose the matchup (i.e. the two teams). The coin-flip loser then selects either (a) one of the two teams or (b) his preferred controller. If the coin-flip loser selects his preferred controller, the coin-flip winner selects a team first. 2. “One Matchup Once” Rule: The coin-flip winner can only select a particular matchup once throughout the entire tournament. For instance, if Player A wins the toss and selects Cardinals-Falcons, Player A cannot call that exact matchup for the rest of the tournament. Player B, however, is free to select that matchup later in the tournament. 3. Customizing Playbooks and Lineup Changes: Customizing playbooks is permissible. You can access your “change” screen (screen where you check player conditions and make substitutions) only twice per half. This helps speed up the games. 4. WR/TE at RB: A WR/TE cannot carry the football unless it is a reverse. You can insert a WR or TE into a RB slot for lead blocking purposes, but he cannot carry the football. To further clarify, players such as Ernest Givins, Ricky Sanders, and Andre Rison cannot carry the football unless it is a reverse. 5. No Ties/Overtime: No game can end in a tie. If a game is tied when regulation concludes, competitors will proceed to OT. If no one scores in the first OT, a new game will begin and the first competitor to score will be declared the winner. So that one competitor does not start with the ball in each OT period, the kicking team in the first OT will be the receiving team in the new game (i.e. the second OT). 6. Lurching: Lurching is prohibited. If you want to rush with a DL, you must either go outside the offensive tackle or “popcorn” someone on the offensive line. Note that this rule does not apply to LBs. 7. Nintendo Malfunctions: If there is an equipment failure in the first half, games will be replayed from the start. If equipment malfunctions in the 2nd half, only the second half is replayed. In that event, the scores from each half are added together to obtain a final score. If the game was uncompetitive or the equipment malfunctioned due to human error, the tourney organizers reserve the right to declare a winner without replaying any portion of the game. 8. Take care of the bar staff!

  10. We will definitely have some Friday pre-tournament shenanigans going on. It might be at the tourney site (since I'll probably be working there that evening), or if people want to, Columbus has six Barcades that are within a 15 minute drive of the venue. I will put up some hotel info soon.
