Kong Off 5: Rough Dates, Location, Format, and Qualification Details

I am thinking this is a "no" for now.  They aren't exactly prepared for such an event due to only having 1 dk machine, and I am unsure whether they have a pcb with correct roms in the back.

So, no interest at all then? If lack of DK machines were a concern, I am certain people local to the area (especially players interested in competing) would be happy to bring their machines to the event.

I will send further questions to Doc, the owner, tomorrow about this issue.  I am sure something could be planned.

Ultimately the decision is Richie's, and I haven't heard anything from Richie about the qualifiers since TGEF.

This three-day Donkey Kong tournament is hosted by Richie Knucklez, and players will qualify to be seeded into a head-to-head single-elimination bracket to duke it out on championship Sunday."

reading all of those makes me think of a Kong Off 6 is more in my future ..  Maybe I could have a score good enough by then to make the event .

I think if I went to the Donkey Kong off 5 I would be standing there watching someone playing DK .

I would love to see an Allen Off at a Kong Off Event .. but I guess I missed the chance of that at KO2 &KO3 ..

With The Kong Off 4.5 only three days away, I was wondering if anyone had any information about who is participating in the competition.

As far as I know, Wes is the only person from the forum attending.

Unfortunately, I'll be moving during those days and won't be able to attend.

In that case, it is unlikely that any seasoned players are attending the event.
