I recently had a great meeting with the Chip Damage group , Winnipeg's Fighting Game Scene peeps. They're known for hosting awesome Fighting Game tournaments and housing some of the best competitive gamers in the city. We had a great talk about them hosting a tournament at our first event in 2014! I got some valuable advice and made a great connection. Despite our talks constantly going off topic, it was very productive! Thanks to Karel and Taylor from Chip Damage! Make sure to check out their Facebook page and follow them on twitter! -Nate (admin) READ MORE OF THE MEETING BY CLICKING HERE! Stay tuned for more from Chip Damage and RGCWinnipeg!
