Re: South Town Arcade VF5FS Tournament Series

ice-9, yeah what siLEpai wrote. It most likely is not a problem, but there is a 32 player limit to the tourney. If you want to, you could also pre-register with South Town Arcade.

 

Re: South Town Arcade VF5FS Tournament Series

Renamed everything that was previously listed as 3.# to 1.# . The VF5FS tournament series is separate from the third season of ranbats at STA. I apologize for any confusions this may have cause.

 

Re: South Town Arcade VF5FS Tournament Series

There is no formal per-registration, but you can reach them using their Contact Link.

You should be fine just showing up for the event.

I think letting the organizers know directly and having people pre-register (and actually showing up to the event!) can help them promote their tourney and VF awareness. Hopefully it also increase the turnout. A lot of the people attending the event does not seem to be regular visitors of VFDC (or don't have an account).

EDIT: I copy and pasted with some revisions, the tourney info from a previous South Town thread) on the first post.
