Seems this is organized by DOI-2. Probably all kinds of players showing up for this. Hoping for recordings!
Was announced on the 5th of march, I'd missed it somehow.

any chance I'll be able to watch this on Twitch or some other service?
I'd love to see some high level play.

I wonder why there is no Force tournament.

The tournament website (thru translation) says "industrial enclosure" will be used for OMG & VOOT. The organizers for the event are volunteers (not Sega) and I guess don't have access to four VO4 cabs. It will broadcast on Niconico. I'm in contact with one event staff members and seeing what, if anything can be done to provide a wider world audience to see the tournament. Translating your thoughts into another language and have it make sense to them is pretty tough. And still don't know if it's correct. But, the tournament times are pretty great! Can watch before going to sleep! Tournament info pages: http://voot-cmksp.peatix.com/

Maybe we should just set up a restream with english commentary? Not many watchers but a 20th anniversary tournament certainly deserves one!

I can stream at least (with Skype or similar for voice). May need to get a premium nico account for decent video quality. I could give some commentary on VOOT, Schooly or MentholMoose can probably do better though.

I have Premium Nico account. I can help you work out your great idea out if the event staff contact declines.

So does anyone else want to join in on commentary for the restreams? I guess skype group chat would be the most convenient for most peole. Oratan tournament tomorrow starts at 1PM JST / 4AM GMT (12h from now). OMG tournament at the same time the next day.

I barely know anything about Moongate so my commentary on that would be pretty bad.

So I guess the VOOT tournament is starting 4 hours after I post this? If we watch the Moongate tournament then that means we will probably be taking a break from our weekly VO night, which is fine I guess. So far I haven't had much luck watching streams on computer in Hawaii, maybe I'll see how it goes this time.

I had an in depth message... hit the wrong button got wiped out. So I will say at the moment we are not sure if there will be a broadcast coming from Japan. We think but not positive. Take a look at the pics... It's little confusing but we will either comment or play our regular sched.
