Tempest 14 – Mardyke Bar, Sheares Street, Cork. Saturday, September 1st, 2012

It’s being a while since the last Tempest, I know. Better late than never, so they say.

Anyway, we’ve got a new ( slightly cheaper ) venue, all thanks to the efforts of Shokashi; The Mardyke. What’s more, we’re also getting more bang for our buck as he has being able to secure us a package that includes free food and drink ( soda in this case. )

The time for the event is from 12pm to 5pm. We’ll be opening at 12pm for registration and casuals and will be beginning the tournament at 1pm, all going to plan. The game that will be played at this event is Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition Version 2012.

SSFIV details:

Entry is €10 to the Street Fighter 4 tournament. You will receive a 5 euro discount if you bring a friend to the event.

Casuals and registration start from 12.00. The tournament itself will start at 13.00.

The tournament will be run exclusively on Xbox 360s.

There’ll be a couple of extra pads on hand for those without, but please bring your own controller of choice if possible.

Tempest 13 – Newport Bar, Paul St, Cork – June 16th 2012

Posted by on May 27, 2012 No comments

Following a highly successful last Tempest where we gave Sairus a good sending off as leader of the tournament, I ( Misty Chaos ) am now stepping into his boots and will be running Tempest for the next few months.

Now normally this would be on every 4th Saturday of the month but due to the fact that June 23rd clashes with Q-Con in Belfast, I decided to go with the earlier date of June 16. That means no one has any excuse now to not come down!

There will also be a station set aside ( numbers permitting ) after group stages for casual games / money matches and you’ll be more than welcome to play as you please on it.

Anyway, with that out of the way, onto the tournament details;
