NOTES

General:

• There will be an info desk that will display eGaming's information, whether it's tournament rules, general rules and guidelines, or other questions about gaming.
• Bring Your Own Controller Policy: It is highly suggested that you bring your own controller for tournaments.  For Free Play use, we will allow it to a certain extent.
• Bringing your own consoles or PCs/Laptops or to set up and play at eGaming grounds is prohibited!
• [PC Gaming: Digital Storm is providing high-end PCs for FanimeCon!
• Do NOT take equipment that does NOT belong to you!  While FanimeCon supports the fans, we oppose theft.
• Please treat the equipment with professional respect.
• If people are waiting to play, please show respect others to play the game too.  The potential exception is if we have a versus-based game available (excluding music games), in which winner can stay and loser gives away his/her spot.
• You may customize some game options.  However, it isn't recommended.
• Customizing console settings is strictly prohibited.
• Attaching non-controller devices like storage devices is strictly prohibited.
• To respect the arcade's services provided for FanimeCon, we will not provide free gaming for specific games unless it's used for tournaments only (example: Super Street Fighter IV).  See the list of arcades for more details (click here).
• Arcade Gaming is NOT the same thing as eGaming!!!  Arcade Gaming will have their own help desk booth!!
• Follow con etiquette!  Yes, this includes showering, brushing your teeth, washing your hands after certain events, and so forth.
• FOOD, DRINKS, OR ANY LIQUIDS IN BOTTLES WILL NOT BE TOLERATED NEAR EGAMING!!!  We are VERY STRICT on this policy.
• Announcements will be highly updated on Twitter during con!  Please KEEP UP-TO-DATE OR ELSE YOU'LL MISS OUT!!
• For more information on the rules, please click on the tournament links above.
• For all tournaments, the latest patch will be updated.  The ONLY exception is Street Fighter X Tekken due to a critical; game-breaking bug on the latest patch, which won't be fixed until June.
• A custom made Skullgirls joystick will be given to the winner of the Skullgirls Tournament!
• EightArc will be giving a Joystick to a winner of a tournament (to be determined later)
• Tournaments will be recorded and photographed.  Pictures and videos will be posted on FanimeCon's eGaming page.
• If staff requests equipment to be returned for tournament, pleaae do so!  The same equipment can also be provided for tournament use.
• Equipment that is loaned from staff (especialy fightsticks) MUST remain in the tournament area to be used at all times whenever possible!  Please DO NOT hog the equipment for personal gain!  If you want to use the best equipment bring your own controllers!
• Tournament interference is PROHIBITED!

Entry Cap information:

• 128 Entrants for most tournaments in single-elimination.
• 32 Entrants, if double-elimination exists.
• Specific tournaments or contests DJ Hero are undefined.  Such tournaments have special rulings.  See specific event for details.

Tournament Registration Policies (IMPORTANT!!):

• All tournaments marked with a are TBA.  Stay tuned for more details.
• Tournament registration for ALL tournaments start on Friday @ 10 AM at the eGaming station.
• Tournament sign-ups can only be shown the day of that tournament.  For example, you cannot sign up for a Sunday tournament on a Friday or Sunday.
• All game tournaments are first-come first serve.  Please register early.  We will not be doing pre-registrations!
• In case specific tournament slots are filled, there will be a reserve list.  While we cannot guarantee a spot, please show up still!
• Check in begins 1 hour before the tournament and ends 15 minutes before the tournament starts.  You MUST be present at those times, EVEN if you are on the possible waiting list!!  If your name is called and you don't show up, expect to be axed out of the tournament; others on the waiting list WILL replace you.  In other words, if ya snooze, ya lose.
• Stay in line!  There will be multiple registration staffers to assist you.  You can sign up for more than one tournament.  If you are that hardcore, you can sign up for all the tournaments if you wish, but think carefully.
• You can only go the line station only once.  Once you register for your tournaments, that's it.  No more going back in line, so think carefully.
• Don't be a bonehead and simply sign up for every tournament you feel interested in signing up for just to secure a spot and then later NOT show up.  We know who you are, so don't even dare pull that!!!
• During the tournament, do NOT leave!!!  If it's an emergency such as a potty break or participating in another tournament, LET THE TOURNAMENT ORGANIZER AND STAFFER KNOW.  If you show up late, expect a forfeit.
• Cutting in line is prohibited.  If you are caught cutting in line, you will be sent to the back of the line.
• Once you leave the line for any reason, you can't go back to your spot.
• Signing up other people in tournaments is prohibited.  Singles tournaments are no exceptions at all.  However, team tournaments may be an exception to "signing up other people" rule.  I suspect that everyone in the team show up.  Otherwise, good luck competing against the opposing team.

Specific Games:

• To compete in any handheld event or tournament, you must have your own legit game.  Some games may use only 1 game, but please do not rely on that at all.  Bootlegged ROMs will not be accepted.

If you have any questions, feel free to post.  If it's tournament-related, feel free to post on the appropriate threads or this one or PM the tournament organizers (usually the poster of the rules).  If it's private, please PM Jonas (head), Diego (co-head), or Cameron or JT (Seconds / Shift Leads) and we'll see what we can do.  If it is something that you want to discuss with us between you and staff, email egaming@fanime.com at any time.  Thanks.

"Yes" to a Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations tourney~ (an ANIME fighting game at an ANIME convention please!)

[magz]

This game would be awesome to have in the console gaming room (Gundam vs. Gundam EXVS).

Look, even Sakuracon is streaming it: http://www.twitch.tv/sakuracon2012

[clawmaster]

Would love to see the game tournaments on stream. i be going to fanime but yea would pretty sick.

[clawmaster]

any word that skullgirls might be added to the list?

[xxxplizit (pogi1kenobi)]

Another quick reminder:

We are in full gear of reading every response possible of what you guys want.  This includes Naruto, Gundam Vs. Gundam, and the longly awaited Skullgirls.

Version 2.0 List should be released soon.  Stay tuned! ^_^

Regarding the Dance Central 2 tournament, I have three questions.

First, what songs are we able to choose for rounds? Basically, are DC1 and DLC songs part of the available choices? I don't care too much if DC1 songs are in it or not, but since I don't have any DLC songs (nor plan to get them) I just want to confirm what the selection for the tournament is.

Second, are the rounds just normal co-op dances or will they be in Dance Battle mode? Either is fine, but I've found some great hype in Dance Battle that would be nice to see for the tournament.

Third, will freestyle mode be turned off? By doing so, songs will have the full set of dance moves they intended to have instead of removing some just for the cheesy freestyle photo session. Of course, there is still some novelty value in that, but nonetheless I shall inquire.

Soul Calibur V - Score Attack? What does that mean?

As far as song choices go, there wil not be any dlc tracks nor will there be DC1 tracks. The tourney will be in Dance Battle mode. Freestyle will be off.

is it possible to get SFxT to be 2 vs 2? haha i mean i don't mind it be 1 vs 1 but just for laughs 2 vs 2 would be pretty funny xP

[Umi.Ryuuzaki]

Oh my, I see E-Gaming has evolved quite a bit! Well well...I guess a veteran chose wisely to return =)

Why not do both 1v1 and 2v2? xP

I'll be there for SFxT. We should really get someone to stream the fighting games and maybe even start a buy-in for prize incentives? Just throwing that out there.
