We want Pics of Your Gaming Scene for an upcoming IPW project!
IPW is a big supporter of the fighting game community. We have a project in the works which is related to helping grow communities everywhere. Since this project is about building communities, we thought it would be a good idea to include pictures of scenes of all sizes within the project.
What we want are pictures of your local scene. It can be as small as a couple of people gathered in someone's living room having fun playing fighting games to pics from local tournaments or events that your scene has thrown. If you have a pic or two you'd like to submit, send them to rodney_desjarlais@iplaywinner.com. If you'd like to point out who is in the picture and/or what event the picture is from, please include that in the email and we'll put that under the picture.
We want pics of people, not games. So please don't send game pics or pics showing just the backs of people's heads playing games unless your scene is so large that you have to get a "crowd" shot.
This is a project about the community, so it is only fitting to feature that very community. We want pics of scenes of all sizes, so no matter how small (or big) your scene is, send us pics. Thanks in advance!

Awesome! I know a great scene for this! Ill just need to go take the pics... Righto!
This is a great idea. I would love to see the fighting game community grow where i am. If you want a pic of the current scene here i can post a picture of myself lol. This is a pretty big smash bros community here, which i cannot stad.
Pedro, the smash scene there can be useful tho. When this project gets more mature and we start rolling it out you'll know why.

These albums from Play N Trade in Anchorage, AK show our SFIV community at its peak. As of right now we have about 10-15 people that play at regular meetups. We've only had a few tourneys (I think 4 or 5) and they were all in 2009. We had a ranbat season during the end of summer last year that went until October.
We have one tourney scheduled so far this year on March 21. If you can wait until then for some pics I can send you some from that event. That'll probably be our biggest SFIV tourney because it will be at a convention.
Signed and delivered, good sirs and madams.
I'll try and get my up-to-5-people community together and get a snapshot of that.
Anything helps, right?
i'll send you guy's a picture of my cousins, my bro's and I playing. That's our community. Lame, but we hate each other's guts when we play.
Man I am all over this. I've already got tons of pics of our scene and I'll have even more after Final Round. Prepare to be inundated.
Sweet idea. I'll be sending in a few pics of the Melbourne SF scene in Australia. =]
Thanks a ton guys! These pics can be any size scene, even if that scene is a few guys in a living room! Actually, I'd love to have pics of scenes of all sizes represented.
Pics from Sweden, Paris, Cannes, and of course London coming up. Mostly in black and white cos I'm a BOSS.
