    OTHER INFORMATION

    This event is sponsored by Zavvi.com and the Double KO! tournaments are endorsed by Capcom UK (especially the Street Fighter IV one) themselves. Leo Tan (Capcom UK PR Manager) had this to say about the event:

    "We're always pleased when fans get together to form their own tournaments. It's indicative of a healthy competitive scene, which is vital to the long term survival of fighting games in general and Street Fighter specifically. And this one has a pretty decent prize! On behalf of Capcom I'd like to thank GodisaGeek for putting this on, and I hope the scene turns out in force."

    Bloody hell mate, that's walking distance from my place. I am a definite for the SF, might even try and learn some basic Tekken skills so I can give that a go for a giggle at that price.

    See you there!

        We expect to see the rest of the guys from the NTSC SF tournaments make an appearance too.

        *Looks at Psyduck, Stakers and the rest of the gang*

        You know you want too~!

          Much as I want to help you promote this, I also wouldn't mind a new 360, so if Psyduck / Stakers / waterisgood4u / Street Turk want to take a rain check on this I won't hold it against them

                  This sounds like it could be a laugh and a good opportunity to meet up with some of the forum peeps. I can't say definitely yet because I'm a shift worker and will need to see if I can get the time I'm off when I'm next in.
                  Do we get a go on SSFIV as well?..

                    I will be there....

                    Although I am totally out of practice.

                    Sounds like a good crack-and always nice to put faces to names.

                      I'll have to see, although probably unlikely.. I'm also horribly out of practice thanks to MW2.

                        No, SSFIV. Sorry! We didn't manage to get demo code. Come down though mate, you can beat Skepz in person!

                          Just a heads up folks, to guarantee yourself a spot in either tournament buy your tickets online. We seem to be filling up fast.

                          Also would like to add that the kind people at Capcom UK have provided us with an extra mystery prize for the winner of the Street Fighter IV tournament. All I will say is that if you are a Street Fighter fan then you will love it!

                              The mystery prize isn't Leo himself, no!

                              He did have a huge hand in providing us with the mystery prize though.
