    [​IMG]L. A. Akira and Industry VFX are paying you to step up your game!

    If you're new to Virtua Fighter, this is a no-brainer! Go to Wednesday Night Fights at Super Arcade, sign up for the VF5:FS tournament, and get the best placement of all new players. L. A. Akira of Industry VFX will then hand you a $50 check.

    This Rising Star Player Award is for new players only, so people like GoatCheese Blues, DRE, and Plague are not eligible.

    $10 Bonus! Win even if you lose!

    Win one tournament game off of L. A. Akira and get $10. Win two and get $20. So even if you lose the battle 1-2, you get $10 whether you place well in the tourney or not.

    L A. Akira is really stepping up here. Think about this: You put him in losers, then knock him out of the tournament, and get the highest placement of all new players in the tourney, you walk away with $90 of his money.

    This is happening every week. Come get some.

      So what constitutes a new player? Having never entered a wnf tourney before? Or are we looking at experience level here?

      L_A will answer that best, but I think this program is designed for people who already go to WNF but just started playing FS. It also covers people who've never been to WNF, are new to FS, and need extra incentive to show up.

      My guess is that you'd be eligible because of your skills, age, desire, and more.

      That's just a guess, though.

      Great way to bring out new players. Props to LA for doing whatever it takes to grow the scene.

      If you started playing in FS and maybe just dabbled in VF5. Someone that played VF5 for a year or so doesn't really count. Rip has played in almost every WNF for FS so far and tonight I paid him $60. He was the highest ranking new player and also beat me one game.

      Congratulations, RIP! [​IMG]

      No prob it was fun and a learning experience. I noticed we probably could have benefited from having an extra ps3 station So if it's needed next week I can bring my setup with monitor.

      Glad you had fun. We'll have more setups next. Before we shared setups with skullgirls, but with that game no longer a part of the tourney we're able to use those free setups now. No need to bring a monitor.

      How was the turnout for this weeks WNF?

      We had 16 people, AE had 40 and sfxt had 8.

      Not a bad turnout considering its post evo and alot of regulars were missing at WNF due to comicon. Im sure there will be ore next week, no doubt.
