Yay! I suck!
I played you at Final Round! Hooray!
No, seriously, I did. Remember? I was running the shit off of your laptop and more or less beating everyone because none of us knew what we were doing, and when no one knows what they’re doing, KEEPAWAY ALWAYS WINS!
On relevance: What is the IRC channel I should be searching for? I would really like to find out how to start playing as soon as I can.
EDIT: Never the mind. I found a post. Geez, Maria…search function. I feel stupid.
Oh, that reminds me. For those who can’t figure out how to use IRC:
Download mIRC (google it). Run it and put in a name. Type /server irc.mizuumi.net
Then once it’s connected type /join #akatsuki
For those of you already on an IRC server that don’t want to switch servers: You can be connected to more than one server at once. You just have to type /server -m irc.mizuumi.net
It will automatically open a new server connection window without killing your current connection.
For those who can’t get IRC working due to ports or routers or whatever, there’s a really easy to use web chat client for mizuumi that should bypass all that:
http://chat.mizuumi.net/irc.cgi
Just put in a name and put in the channel #akatsuki
Lastly, there’s a lot of other clients that support IRC, like Trillian and xchat and stuff like that. There’s sort a list here.
The netplay on this is really solid; Mauve did a great job on that hacked client. I had a lot of fun last night on IRC.
It feels like such a simple game, but there’s some interesting mindgames going on during a match. I still have trouble with a few habits I need to break (IE- I cross-up and do the reverse motion; so Kanae cross-ups and then strikes a counter pose. YESSS) but I think I improved a lot. Thanks Gasaraki!
Keep the games going, guys.
These bear relinking

omg, those matches were epic.
Finally got to play some games yesterday with fallot. There were a few lag spikes and it did get a bit slow during unwarranted times, but it was decent in general. I still need to work up my Kanae/Soldat game.
Good games to SilentShinobi and Gasaraki.
I have a lot to learn before I can truly become a nun.
Best Blitz video ever.
I jsut played like, 2 hours with Sp00ky, about 40 matches. Was pretty crazy
Oh man, I won’t be able to keep up if you keep playing the hell out of this game.
The highly relevant “POVERTSUKI BROKEKAMPF” thread title is being wasted on the other blitzkampf thread that people aren’t posting in.
Sp00ky’s Adler is pure sex
I’m going to get back into this now and make people hate Anonym all over again.
See if I can get Kyrojenix back into it, though he’s probably bonkers for SF4 right now.
Too late, hot plate.
Man, I’ve played 80 games of Blitz in the past 2 days.
AND I NEED MORE!
Two words, guys.
Blitz.
Caster.
The moment we’ve all been waiting for since 2007 is finally here. Drop by the irc channel at #akatsuki on irc.mizuumi.net to test it out. It’s still in alpha but it works fine, is an incredible step up from the in-game netplay, and allows spectating.
As the guy who’s been working on this, this is very much in-development and in-testing and not really anywhere near ready for public distribution yet. (This is a hint, please don’t dist outside of channel yet guys.)
There’s still some serious issues with it that need to be ironed out, and any ‘polishing’ hasn’t been done yet. This is strictly alpha quality software right now.
