segathon Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Hey Buds , Hope to have a live stream going at our Ryder Cup / Segathon Tourney this Saturday. http://www.twitch.tv/segathonsov My guess it will be 5 CST when it starts, then eventually there will be a loud crash at some point and it will all go dark because of dat booze. Tweet at me during tourney at https://twitter.com/segathon And see past tourneys at http://www.segathon.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoachMac Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 (edited) I would love to make one of these. You got it down and do it right Segathon. Awesome events and site. Your Segathon site was actually the first thing I found when I started searching the internet for retro video game stuff circa 2008.

segathon Posted February 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Thanks Mac, that's crazy were the first thing you found. There are rumors of doing a Vegas thing in 2017. If we do it, we will try to make it huge. We...will....see Just got done with Tecmo Madison last week it was so fun. Having a whole bar full of people cheering the last game on the big screen was such a great moment. Over 250 competitors and ESPN did a few minutes on it Live Saturday Morning. Actually had a bunch of media there. Check out this link to view some of it. http://tecmobowl.org/forum/topic/67897-tecmo-xii-madison-media-coverage/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingraph Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 Nice! I put in a calendar reminder for this Saturday...I'll definitely try to catch some of the streams and say hello! Love the site! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halifax Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 I watched for a bit last night. Nice work on the stream. From the few games I saw. They were low scoring. It seemed that it's harder to score in 95 vs 94. Fair statement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
segathon Posted February 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 Thanks for watching, I was hoping to keep the stream updated with who's playing etc. But the laptop had to sit behind TV it so I couldn't monitor it. We also added some new rules/stats that sounded great in theory, but was a little too much stat keeping with 18 people and booze. Hope to put a recap up soon. Also half the guys were a little freaked about the live stream and thought that is was going to get on TMZ or something. I don't think nerds in their mid 30s playing video games is going to be top news for anyone. On the 95 vs 94 scoring I think 94 has a larger radius of scoring. You can do basically the same moves but you need to be closer to the goalie for the shot to be effective in 95. So the D can clog the area more in 95, don't need to contest long shots. But I think it balances a bit with 95s speed, that can cause quick scoring chances. But if I reprogrammed the game, I'd like to have 94s shooting range (and 94s passing) Also we had wide variety of skill levels at our tourney and had to use all teams, so you may of just watched a couple button mashers play with the Ducks.

segathon Posted February 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 Also Goalie control in 95 is a little more tight than 94. So you can really shut down most scoring moves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GusIslander Posted March 12, 2016 Report Share Posted March 12, 2016 I was just remembering about this - sorry that I didn't even check on twitch that same day - was wondering if when there would be another one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
segathon Posted March 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 We used to do like 4 tourneys a year, but we all are domesticated now with wives and kids so its a yearly thing now. Normally play around Jan/Feb each year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
