About time.... (Reno thread)

I was the one player with the Chobits sweater and on the evening I was wearing the X anime club shirt. There were a couple of guys that played on CvS2 however my skill level on P-groove was higher then the guys who were playing against me. I also checked out Time Crisis 3 and already beat it getting 2nd but damn the game is harder then TC2.

I had a very good time. I did win on the blackjack and crap tables at Silver Legacy alongside with winning plush toys as well. :slight_smile:

Sorry I didn’t make it down there to challenge you, my sleeping schedule has changed due to Xbox live. I couldn’t muster the strength to get out of bed to go and challenge you. Glad to hear you had a good time and actually won in Reno. This place breaks a lot of families.

To RenoRob: How’s the ranking coming along? I haven’t bumped into you on live yet but I hope you’re representin Reno, damn I should have put Reno somewhere in my name oh well. Here’s some info I found about CVS2 live. You can break out of any throw, that’s been confirmed, it doesn’t matter if you’re rolling, in the middle of a poke, or miss a crossup and land on the other side of them. Also your grade which is represented by letter can actually go down. I went from an S down to an A back to an S back to an A like 5 times. I’m not sure what exactly affects this but I believe that your total wins, total games, and win percentage compared to the other players have something to with this. What it means is that not everyone is just gonna reach a certain amount of wins or game total and just be handed an A or S, you have to meet certain criteria (mentioned above) as compared to the other top ranked players and you’ll always be fighting to hold on to it, which I like because it would be pretty gay if in like 2 months 80% of the players had an A , S, or SS just because of games played.

It’s cool. Damn I hope that Scandia in fairfield will get Time Crisis 3. Not only was the gameplay better IMO but it was also harder to hide from the incoming shots. Then Mad Dog returning. That bad guy is hella tight. Keeps blowing himself up then comes back to fight another day. I swear he never dies in Time Crisis hehe.

CvS2 controls were decent at Circus Circus but MvC2 controls on the 2nd player were messed up. Third Strike controls were flat out shredded but how in the hell was I pulling off dash Raging Demons with Akuma on the 1st player side is a mystery beyond me. The 2nd player side of Third Strike the joystick screws were beyond loose. The same thing with the CvS controls as well and I haven’t played CvS in a very long time.

I’ll probably head back up to Reno again preferably on a Saturday and it’ll take some time before I get those kinds of day offs again. I’ll let ya guys know when I’m coming down once again.

Hehe, hey an anime fan, that’s cool. Too bad I didn’t get a chance to meet ya. Was too busy with something else. Anyway, come up here on Saturday, and let us know here, we’ll probably give you a good challenge, or may not, depending on who will be there. As for Takumi, I hope you will be here this Saturday, I wanna see this skillz of yers since you were having a bad day yet owning up on some random scrubs here in Reno. I just love seeing posts like that, seeing that I didn’t even bother going there since I haven’t gotten any comp in the last few months. Last one we had was Jason Nelson, and even at that, I missed my chance on playing that foo. Yes, if you know who that is, yea, we’re hella cool with him, and play him when we go to SVGL. We’ll see how bad your day will be this Saturday. See you there.

ā€œlast time i went there i sucked so bad and i was owning, is there good players playing now?ā€<---- Just check it out this Saturday, assuming your going.

Circus sizucks my fuckin cizock, the fizierce on the 2nd playa sizide fuckin goes nuts for no reason. You can’t see your bar cause the screen needs to be adjusted but Rhea lost the remote in her twat. Everytime something is broke Rhea says her twat is to tired to fix it or her twat hurts. I’m so sick of her lazy TWAT!!!
I don’t even wanna talk about the other pieces of garbage that arcade hasn’t fixed in centuries, all because of one woman’s TWAT!!! So I’ll meet you at Scrub Caliber 2 in the Atlantis ok dude, cause they’re getting like every fuckin game next week. One time I saw Rhea’s camel toe buldging out of her pants when she was fixing a game and it licked it’s lips at me!!! Fuckin help going crazy in Reno!!!

Forgive psychoballz. The bastard has tendencies to go crazy unannounced and shit. :stuck_out_tongue: :wink: :cool: :o :confused: :mad: :evil:

P.S. Btw, that fool named Takumi didn’t show up. So, again, how sad is that, when people say crap about this place and yet they don’t even go here. Next time dude, check who you play. Maybe that time you were here, you were playing with some random fools who didn’t even know how to play. Or maybe some kid that just knows how to mash and crap.

That sucks. Scrub Calibur II…lmao SCII is not bad of a 3-D fighting game but it is better than T4 despite that I like playing T4 more then SCII. Good thing about SCII coming out to PS2 import March 27th is Hori is also coming out with SCII Hori Stick except it’ll have the same six button layout as T4 so that will be very nice for PS2 and Gamecube owners.

Naw I’ve seen worse controls at Fairfield Tilt but then again the manager there is bringing back all the good old school games espiecally when they brought back Alien vs Predator. I’m hoping that they will get GGXX because I mentioned it to him and he is considering about getting it but then again I doubt he’ll get it in the Tilt.

Anyways I couldn’t make it up there this Saturday however I’m trying to get both Saturday and Sunday off next month. I’ll post on here again when I head up to Reno. :smiley:

hey guys good game last night i was like flip kidd wid the spikie hair and was playing mags sent and tron maybe next time we can get a lil tourney or something to happen, the only thing is im not there all the time :lame: well until we meet again

chaos:evil:

Alpha 3 Tournament at the Atlantis

on March 15th today!! at 8pm

$2 entry fee winner takes all!!

Or anyone who wants to bet on matches that’s welcome to.

We need to start having some sort of tourneys so this is a great start. Just meet at the game don’t ask the attendants what’s up because this is an underground tourney with no corporate approval. It’s not a big deal though just to let all the potential players know.

The tournament is also best of 3 matches, double elimination.

Wha??? What I missed?? Why am I mentioned besides those games??? I never was great in any games. Let alone those. OMG AIR HOCKEY TOURNEY WOOOOOOOTT!!! OWNAGE :lame: . About that March15th tourney, what happened. I was there and there was no tourney. Again :lame: . Angel lossing 4 games to Paullie. Again :lame: (x2). LoL j/k. About time I posted something here right.

Where exactly is Atlantis?

Ah sweet let me know when Atlantis does get GGXX because I might head down there for some GGXX gameplay or possibly a tournament. Just got my SCII Hori Stick for PS2 and I’ve got two sweet sticks for any console competition.

I’ll be back later on. Going to play some old school Alien vs Predator to see if I can go through it on one credit. :slight_smile:

It’s not downtown. It’s on the main street (South Virginia). If you are coming by 395 you will see it before you get to downtown. If you are coming by 80, go past downtown, get on 395 south and then you will see it. It is a really tall building by itself with all these lights on it and it says Atlantis, so you’ll be able to find it without trying to remember a specific off ramp. If I had to describe it I’d say it’s every players paradise. Atlantis.

Some of Team MGL will make it out to Reno for some fun in the smallest biggest city in the world :slight_smile: … Anyways, we were wondering if u guys can throw a tourney while we were there… the guys coming usually play only sf games and vs games… maybe a cvs2,3s,or MvC2 tourney??.. We were hoping u guys can throw it on Wed. night, which is the 16th of April…I think 5 guys are coming and could use a break from gambling to sf it with ya’ll peepz… tell me wassup, and does Circus Circus get no play now??

GGXX beginning of ā€œJuneā€??? I hate that :mad: . But alas, I hope tons of peeps would actually play the game here.

CvS2, I heard from ā€œYaconoā€ that it would be on the same cabinet as SC2. But he said it’s already built, same as the GGXX machine. I can’t wait to see those games in HOTLantis.

Now for A-3, we don’t even know if we’re totally going to get a new cabinet for that damned game, ā€œYaconoā€ keeps saying it’s not theirs, and he’s not going to touch it and stuff, so it’s a total bust for that game, and we don’t even know if we’re going to get a new one really.

MvC2, damn, least the sticks are fine, and the buttons are fine. Where ā€œYaconoā€ put it just sucked since it’s too cramped up over where it is atm. Not sure if he’s going to put it somewhere else, like where that damn pin-ball machines are. Least peeps can see MvC2 side by side with SC2. Now there’s an idea :cool: .

Well hopefully they make changes with the arcade set up. The fighting game machines should be close together. Oh, btw, I keep bothering ā€œYaconoā€ about this, and I hope it happens, we freaking need 3S machine and ST machine. Since it’s included in Evo :).

Now last thing, totally, how many do you guys think would go with us in EVO??? So far it’s just Rob, me, Angel, and A-sak for sure. Psychoballz and number6?? You guys going to join??? Well anywho, just a thought of what’s been happening and stuff here in Reno :p. MvC2 machine is the only new thing that happened in the last month or so. Now could you believe I got 2nd in an MvC2 tourney??? I think hell has frozen over since I got 2nd and ruiN- has a job :stuck_out_tongue: :p. Laters :).

P.S. How’s this for a gameplay, Rugal vs Cammy, both ratio 2’s, Rugal does his dive move (fb+jab punch), with full A-groove Cammy. Cammy starts her custom and does a super?? :smiley: :lol: :wink: OWNAGE!!!

Renooooooo!

Hello. So i see that MvC2 is in Atlantis and it works. My bro and i couldn’t go to Reno during Easter. So were there a lot of people playing MvC2 at Circus or Atlantis?

Well, i’ll prolly see you guys some time during the summer.

HAHAH omg WholeFn didn’t go to Reno, BOOOO!!!. Btw Andy, there’s a whole lot of better looking chicks in Hotlantis than in Circus. I wonder why??? :cool: . It’s prolly cause it’s close to a freaking nightclub :). Anywho, aren’t you guys going to be here during Memorial Day Weekend??? Anywho, when ever you guys get here, it would be really nice to see ya’ll here again, laters.

Hell yeah I’m going to Evo 2003, I just need to learn to play GGX2 pretty soon so hopefully you guys can get me started and I’ll come over and really learn the game and know what to practice since I have gotten my joystick hacked for PS2. So I guess the games I will enter are: CVS2, GGX2, 3rd strike, ST. I would like to learn to play halfway decent in ST and 3rd strike but I have no clue where to start, I need some match vids or something as I think it would be sad if I only entered CVS2 like last time. I think this year will be a lot more fun because I think I have a little more confidence and won’t be so nervous like I was before, and I plan on practicing a lot.

U guys know all u have to do is call and come over…

Evo Practice is at my house… as ususal…

=)

Lates…

RENO_ROB

Where’s mine ya bastard, I changed my mind, I just want Sol and Ky, if you can get a screenshot with those too facing off againts each other (i.e. the SS from the intro of the game), that would be awesome. Anywho, as usual, just call Rob and stuff so we can all like get a practice going on, tons of games are going to be at Evo, so pick the time and stuff. We already got a place, all we need now is when :wink: .

P.S. Paul, gotta be more patient againts Eddie. If you know he has the range, don’t play on it. Try and stay away from it. If you can, try and save your burst on the right time. And always stay calm. That’s all you need bro.

I really hope they have those games when I get back from work today, this will be tight because we will actually have a real arcade in Reno, and now we can have tourneys and the out of town players will be more likely to show up now that we have one place to find the majority of today’s most popular fighters including GGX2, see you there.
