Community Stun Academy #2

The next big European tournament is Stun Academy 2, and @K4rma has a few announcements pertaining to this big tournament:

"As the next Republic of Fighters will take place in the next several months, the french tournament organizers decided to implement a new DoA-only tournament to support the offline scene: The Stun Academy # 2."

"The concept is very simple: one full day of competition among European players in the center of Paris, with a solo tournament, a team tournament, but also lots of show matches and freeplay. The tournament will be played in Bo5, with round robin pools in Bo3. We’re expecting the best french (@Ky Dragon, @Alucardo…) and European players (@Gehaktbal should be here to defend his title). I hope we’ll see more players from Italy, Germany and UK this time."

Teaser Stun Academy N°1

 

Lets go!!

 

I wonder if this will become the next big doa tournament, similar to TFC in America. Hope you guys get a great turnout.

 

I'm very much interested in going to this. This event would make up my absent at ROF3

 

And I thought there was only ROF here in Europe. This is sweet!
August the 30th? Hmm. Not sure if I'm able to go, but I'll try.

 

I wish the European community a good turnout at this event

 

Gonna see if I can plan Friday 29th as a holiday. Getting there wouldn't be a problem, but a train ride from my place to Paris is still very expensive .

I'll see if I can do it.

i dont know where you live in germany, but if its close to The Netherlands, maybe you can ride along with me in my car.

Thanks a lot for the offer! Unfortunantly, I'm from Saxony right in the other corner of Germany. While a train ride from Frankfurt to Paris is quite cheap, getting to Frankfurt first is what takes a lot money. It also depends what two nights in a hotel there would cost too, but yeah, I don't want to wail about the money here.

However, I have to see first if I'm able to plan my holiday(s) on that date.

 

I'd love to go myself and represent the UK but not so sure if I'll be able to make it. I shall try though.

Oh nice! Another UK player who's planning on going to this.

 

I'll do my best for make it in this event finger crossed about my money, heheh

 

London and UK fighters!

It is easier to make it in Stun Academy #2 DOA5 tournament @ Paris than I thought. It is mainly because this will be an one day only event (August 30th), so there's not need of hotel expenses. Also bus traveling from London arrives just 2 tube stations from the venue!

Rountrip bus costs £55 and journeys would be like this:

• GOING TO EVENT TRIP

Departure: Friday 29/08/14 21:30
From: London (Victoria Coach Station)
To: Paris (Gallieni)
Arriving: Friday 30/08/14 07:15​

• COMING BACK HOME TRIP

Departure: Saturday 30/08/14 23:30
From: Paris (Gallieni)
To: LONDON (Victoria Coach Station)
Arriving: Sunday 31/08/14 07:30​

Rountrip Paris tube ticket is about €3 (quite cheap). So total expenses from London would basicaly be £55 + €3 + food & drinks

Is a converter needed here if you play on PS3 controller?

I'm fairly certain a converter will be needed as the main platform is 360.

 

I wonder what one is supposed to do if you are using a 3rd party PS3 controller that is not compatible with converters to Xbox.

 

Booked! See you soon parisians!

I'm sure lending a pad from someone wouldn't be much of a problem.

Well, I don't know how you are able to handle it, but I'm sure I wouldn't do well on a controller I'm not used to. Especially when it's from a different platform. It's like driving with a different car.

I meant borrow someone's PS3 pad+converter, I'm sure there will be a few people that will be PS3 players.I'm assuming a DS3 pad would be manageable.
