Apply to SETX FGC Summit Academy Today!

Registration for Summit Academy is $175
 

SETX Summit Academy's all-inclusive Registration Fee will cover the cost of your dorms, all meals on your meal plan, application fees, service fees, and stream fees. 

The Academy:
The theme for SETX FGC Summit is an anime academy. After receiving your acceptance letter to the academy you'll get to experience everything Summit Academy has to offer. Each student will receive a school schedule filled with all of their classes, which include tournament matches and training sessions that are mandatory for every student. Each student will also be placed on an assigned color team and dormitory and receive a school 'uniform' they must wear throughout the entirety of their stay at Summit Academy. Many other school activities and shenanigans will take place, but you will have to first get accepted to the academy in order to see what may await you.
 

The Summit:
The point of the summit is for all of our players to get better at their games and strengthen the community both as competitors and family. Throughout your stay, you will be competing in the games you sign up for in the form of weekend-long tournaments, as well as being part of 1 on 1 training sessions. For players who excel at their games, their job will be to pass on skills to the newer players, while they work their hardest to improve over their stay at the academy. This will be the best time for students to learn new games, so I would highly suggest signing up for things you wanna learn or get better at that you otherwise would not put the time to. In addition to this there will be plenty of fun and off the wall extracurricular activities to participate in, and a ton of time to just hang out and make friends.
 

What Is Provided And What To Bring:
At the academy, you will be provided a dorm to stay in.

Once we reach 18 students, all major meals will be paid for.

We will need the community to step up and provide as many setups as possible to make this event work. So if you own any CRTs/lagless monitors, consoles and games, immediately message Tyler (yo.) so he can plan out the event as best as possible.


In addition to what is listed above each student will need to bring the following:


Your own controller, Clothing, Pillows, Toiletries, Extra blankets if you wish, Personal Snacks & Drinks, Data for your phone (no wifi provided), Cooler for your snacks/drinks (fridge space will be nonexistent), lawn chairs, BYOB for 21+

Rules:
Tyler (yo.) is the Dean/Director/President/Sama/Leader of Best Korea of Summit Academy and will have the final say on all rules during your stay.

Punishments will typically come in one of two forms, Disqualifications and Expulsions.
 

Disqualifications:


Disqualifications will come as a result of breaking typical tournament rules including breaking typical tournament rule sets, being tardy, etc. These will result in a loss being counted during the relevant tournament bracket.

 

Expulsions:

 

Expulsions will result in you being required to immediately leave the academy and being banned from attending the following year. These are not a joke, and will not be treated as such. If required we will get law enforcement to forcefully remove you. Actions that will result in expulsion include:
 

  • Drama - If you cannot settle an issue with another student and everyone gets sick of it, you will be expelled. We are stuck with each other for 72 hours and will not tolerate it

  • Breaking into the girl's dorm at any time without explicit permission from the Sama or ALL the girls who live in the dorm

  • Making noise after quiet hours, if someone complains, you're out

  • Sex with anyone or yourself

  • No Drugs, let me spell this out for you, this EXPLICITLY includes marijuana

  • No Drinking unless you are 21+

  • If you smoke tobacco, you must smoke off-premises

  • Being so drunk that you have to be babysat and ruin everyone's time

  • Having poor hygiene - That means shower, brush your teeth, if someone complains, it's already too late, pack your bags.

  • Using any golf carts

  • Not attending or being habitually late to class.

  • Literally anything else the Sama feels is expulsion worthy.

 

SETX SETS:

 

As issues will inevitably arise during the course of the academy we are putting in place a resolution tool. If a minor issue arises, who's waifu is better, I deserve a bed, this character is X tier, etc, both parties can come to the Sama with the wager, and if the Sama agrees, a SETX SET will be played. Both players offer something if they lose, and will be obligated to honor their word, otherwise, they will be expelled. Wagers can include things such as admitting that someone's waifu is better, winning the right to sleep on a bed, verbally admitting a character is x tier, etc. The wager is to be honored throughout the entire course of your stay academy. Both players must come up with a mutual game to settle the issue with, if they cannot do such amongst themselves, the Sama will come up with a competition that is even for both students.

Other Notes:

 

The Facebook event will the primary means to spread future information about the event. So please make sure to mark yourself as going on that.

Link to Facebook Event: https://www.facebook.com/events/2592434107654409/

Additionally, parking will inevitably be an issue. We will need people to carpool as many people as deep as possible, so plan accordingly. We wil have a carpool thread on the Facebook Event.

Game Line Up

This year the game line up will be entirely determined by the students of Summit Academy. This means you should rally as many people to enter the games you most enjoy, and considering doing the same for other students.

This being said, please registers as soon as possible, and if you decide to change what games you are entering later, then that is no issue, simply message Tyler (yo.) and he can make the change.

Also note, the number of games you enter, is directly correlated to how much free time you will ultimately have. If you want to do nothing but grind games for 72 hours, that is fine by us, if you want to play one game and chill the majority of the time, also fine.

For games with small entries, we will do small 1 on 1 matches or round robins.

For games with large entries, we will do swiss-style tournaments.

Ultimately, even though we have a whole cabin and an entire weekend, we are still limited by time and space, so there is a change, not all games requested will have a time slot, and the majority of games played over the weekend will not be streamed or recorded.

Student Numbers and Reg Goals


Certain aspects of Summit Academy are determined by the number of students accepted.
