Hey guys, Evo is right around the corner so I am happy to announce my Danisen for select games on select Fridays leading up to evo. It's mainly to gather interest and hype for Gundam as well as level everybody up, but we will probably play GG Persona and even BB at some point as well. At the end of the season at some point in June, I will be sponsoring the top player 75 dollars to go to EVO. In addition, Jinbu007 is going to give the winner free housing for Evo in his hotel room! If the player already has plans for EVO, I will sponsor the next available player. I want to get people out here!

THIS WEEK


What is a Danisen?
You might be familiar with the term already, but it relates to a ranking system used in old style martial arts and similar practices. If you've played MVC3 or Tekken netplay lately, you've probably seen something similar. Players battle it out to increase their ranking toward the top rank. If you win 3 times in a row, you rank up to the next dan, If you lose 3 times in a row, you rank down. It's pretty simple. If you're in a loss or win streak and you win or lose your next game, you reset back to a zero streak.

How does it work?
The format can change depending on the game played, but I would like to have pretty nice sets rather than just one game. For Gundam, it will be FT5 for all team sets. For Persona, best 2 out of 3, other games tba. After you finish your set you report back to me so I can record the stats. The stats will be listed here in this thread at all times, but you need to sign up for your game via this thread as well so I can add you to the list. You do NOT have to team with the same person in gundam every time we play. You can play against whoever you want as long as they're within 1 rank of you.

EXVS 3/15
EXVS will take place as the first event. It would be best to start around 8PM PDT but you can join in whenever you want. Since everybody is going to be Kyu to start out, you can play against whatever team you want. Keep in mind in the future you may only play against players of the same or similar rank as you. Grab yourself a teammate and challenge another team in the chat. You don't have to team with the same player for every set, but during the set you may not swap out. Gundam sets will be first to 5 wins. The winning team will both achieve ranking points and the losing team will lose a point. Please report to me on skype or in this thread when you've finished your match (it really helps for record keeping so it's nice to have it all archived where I can look it up in case of mistakes). Anyone is welcome, but everybody must sign up in this thread. If you miss this week, it's ok! You can start any week you want. You are never counted out of becoming the best player because you missed a week, the top player can always be defeated and rank down. I will probably end the event around 2 AM PDT but everyone can of course keep playing non ranked casuals.

About the stream
The events are not necessarily streamed. Brett has his own schedule of things to do and we usually have something planned on Fridays. No matter what, we will run the events even off stream. If Brett wants to hop in, he is allowed to join the Danisen as well. It would make it easier since he's already streaming too! :P
