We’re moving all the tournaments to the 10PM PST start time, as that worked out really well for the Round 1 qualifiers with no connection issues.

Please make sure your ports are forwarded correctly and is tested beforehand.  Anyone with connection problems due to this will not be allowed to participate.

Apologies for the late start as Sabin had transportation problems.  We started the tournament a few minutes late with the stream starting about an hour after the start of the tournament. The top 8 was streamed and I will have videos up soon.  All in all, the tournament ran pretty smoothly but we’ll iron out what kinks we hid have and next week should run much smoother.

 SliceEveryone advances to the FINALS.

	1st	SliceEveryone	Boxer
	2nd	-TheBastard-	Zangief
	3rd	Krost	O. Ken
	4th	djfrijoles	Ken
	5th	CigarBob	Ken
	5th	Megaman3D	Claw
	7th	kyouya	Dictator
	7th	ultracombo	O. Sagat

Due to concerns with connection problems and due to Sabin’s availability, we need to move the start time back one hour for the first tournament. Sorry for the inconvenience but this change needed to be made to help with the quality of the tournament.

In addition, there will be a ping limit of 150. We will check pings before the start of the tournament. Players whose pings exceed 150 will be replaced with an alternate.
