Good shit everyone. I am mad tired right now. Was about everywhere last night, ending about 7am. The random thing with Terrance and crew tops the list however. Hope you guys made it home with no trouble. Tourney was good, thanks to Seattle for coming down, nice chatting with you Cole. Always like talking/hearing about the old days, World Warrior era especially. Next time you guys hold an event, we’ll definitely rally Portland to make it. I like this NW connection thing for sure. Props to Missoula as well for the trek as well. Shane we continue to have our rivalry, see you in the next tournament, and I am always down for a best of 3.
On a final note it’s hype to have the NW crews interacting about how we can level up this thing. We’ve been working to bring up the size our local crew, that other part of that is getting that skill level up too. My real interest is community building (more or less built a career out of it over the years), bringing more people in and everyone has a good time while working level up their game. I have said it before, I like everyone in this community (haven’t met one person I didn’t actually), and will continue to work to be neutral and down for everything and everyone as long as it helps the scene. To truly be on the rise we all gotta connect and utilize what we can offer. Here’s my shout outs then, it’s a long list. Thanks to;
-Joe for working on the event
-Sam Y and Angel for working to push the local scene
-Slash for streaming and working to promote the scene
-Seattle for attending
-Cole for chatting, being Cole
-Ray for doing what he did and still does
-Terrance for his enthusiasm and energy. We need that hype level for sure
-Shane and crew for driving 8 hours to be at every Portland tournament
-Congrats to Bokkin for taking it
-All the local crew for attending and supporting this thing. That’s Portland, Beaverton, Salem, Woodland, Vancouver. We all one
-K for hosting and continuing to give a shit about this scene
-Jeromie for hosting open door essentially
-BBH for continuing to come out, even though we know your interests are elsewhere right now
-The guys at Ground Kontrol for letting us do our thing
-To the brand new people who are just starting to show up, join us, we need everyone being a part of thing, especially the next gen
-All the players; to the og’s in the Portland community specifically (Jetay, Y again, Ray even though he far away now, and so on). And a shout out to the younger players like Virsaga and Ronnicle to name a few, I like watching that fire you guys have. Hungry mf’s lol. Seeing ya’ll gaming while twisted and having that much fun reminded me of those days in the WW era. Maybe that’s why I like chatting with Ray/Cole/Matt so much, can reminisce about the early days when we were kids in this. Makes me wish I hadn’t stepped out for the duration that I did some years back, but that experience I gained while away I am happy to put to the scene again. NW on the rise son!
See everyone at the next one ; ) I am going back to sleep
qft
Shout outs to ARPEEGEE for picking up the corona and all that goodness.
Shout outs to Seattle being buff.
Shout outs to my embarrassing performance.
Shout outs to 3rd strike.
Shout outs to balloons creeping hard around the corner.
Damn, once again just out of top 8 range. Not too bad considering the turnout I guess. Anyway, GG’s to everyone I played at the tourney and after. Had a good time beasting on you Portland cats. :nunchuck:
Seriously though, you guys are all ridiculous and hella cool and awesome at SF. Thanks to the Crow’s Nest for being so hospitable. Casuals after the tourney were a lot of fun. Had a 24 hour day on 2 hours of sleep. Good times.
@OMNE, you and I are gonna run it back on Dec. 18 when I’m back down for Gameclucks. You said “give me 1 month to really play”… here it is man. lol, show me whats up.
@Red (or Ethan, lol), Unbelievably small world. It was good to see you again, and I’m sure I’ll see more of you soon in both respective communities. It’s good to see you putting your extensive community organization skills to good use for Northwest SF. It definitely needs it. Also, I just noticed your SRK handle is Paradox Jive. Rep the footbag all day man. lol
@Bokkin, congrats.
@CPR Thanks for driving man. It was a big chore by the end of that long day… and we didn’t die, so kudos.
Thanks again to everyone. Had a killer fuckin time. Can’t wait to come back down.
Thank for everything, Portland! That venue was stellar.
gg’s to everyone I played, Sam Y I got you next time. Fucking Sams playing those dive kick characters I hate =/ …must work on that part of my game, good representin’.
Thanks to AJ n Jetay for choppin it up, and the Crow’s nest for hosting the after session…hopefully see you guys @ a Seattle event in the future. With Tourney Play Portland coming up, all you guys will be entered into the runnings and qualify to enter the Final tournament…which should be a big event, excited.
I’ll be back. Now that you’ve had a taste of us, be ready for the debut of Cash Money Voltron @ Tourney Play Portland’s 3v3. >=D
gg’s, <3
I work Thursdays and have been ridiculously sick so I missed this one. I’ll be at ASB3 and hopefully next Slugfest. I’m playing Rose again and actually practicing and shit.
Thanks to Ground Control for having probably to tighest venue Ive ever been in for a tounament. Oh yeah and the dude checking ID’s calm down buddy I reached in to grab my water bottle while literally only having one foot in the door…It’s gonna be okay.
Congrats to AJ bodying me in 3s. Also congrats to pressing start in a tournament match
Shoutouts to getting lost in downtown portland, picking up beer, then finally finding where we were parked.
Thanks to the Portland peeps and their hospitality post Tournament. Roxy’s was also delicious and awesome prices.
To all those I played in Portland (including Seattle people) please get better. I would like there to be a rivalry, both personally and regionally.
Cole, stop playing dee-jay in a match where Sim would be the best choice. I understand lvling him up, I don’t understand not switching to win.
Jetay, sobats are never truly safe against 100% of the cast. I will put a $100 I can chun super any of your attempts. BTW I do know your character better than you lol. Play the game so that I can beat 100% Jetay.
SamB. Gross cammy. not in the good way.
FatBear. Good shit beating Riki/Dugg
Cash Money Voltron cannot be stopped.
:china: Rouge Mocha Porter for the win.
Shout out to K and AJ/OMNE for letting us play at their pad. Thanks for the Joose Jetay. I am now a man.
Kurt- thatnks for smoking me out.
Cole- let’s get so more MM in. Your funny as fuck, especially when I’m not sober.
Bokkin/Rikk/doug- thanks for the tips you guys passed to me
Wow, good to see Slugfest consistently pull 30+ players on a monthly basis.
Congrats to Bokkin for taking 1st.
Riki-Oh : Glad you liked the venue. GK remains my favorite in the NW.
Props to Joe, Angel, Team Khaos, Best Bout Gaming and everyone else involved in keeping this event alive.
If all goes well, I’d like to do a Slugfest event before EVO2K11 if the dates are close enough.
Ray, be nice to have you at a future Slugfest or other Portland event for sure, thanks for all the help and input so far. We keepin’ your work going, links in a chain.
Also shout out to Riki-Oh, glad to get some more matches in. That Bison was vicious enough, wish we could have gotten a few Adon matches in as well. Need more experience on that one for sure. Kurt, get godly with your Adon please ; )
wow, hella puttin me on blast.
lol, good shit, i’m ok with being free. competitive gaming isn’t for everybody.
but please believe cash money voltron ain’t got shit on nigga rich gatchaman.
Ethan get godly with your Sagat please :wgrin:
but yeah i cant be dropin links D:
i heard ethan has the best bison in oregon.
Yes my Bison is godlike. He’s a charge character right?
Here are a few pics from the event. Brought a real nice camera only for it to crash on me after about an hour. Hopefully can save those pics with a card reader, until then snapped off a few shots with my phone. Quality not great, but you can get an idea of the turn out and such.
Slugfest VII 1
Slugfest VII 2
Slugfest VII 3
Slugfest VII 4
Slugfest VII 5
I look forward to seeing what Ground Kontrol is like after they remodel, we’ll have more room once that happens hopefully.
If you know Dee Jay so well, Stop getting Raped by Cole’s Dee Jay… Cause i dont. Get on that Play more, Speak Less status boss. Cause if you got 2 players who play the character telling you how safe some shit is on THERE character. Its probably true. Stop trying 1 up niggas all the time for everything and you might find yourself a easier time in this community.
Oh I realized I needed to learn that match-up. Yo cole last time we played how’d I do vs your dee-jay?
I still put the challenge to you. I’ll be chun in training mode and you dee-jay. infinite super. Just try and space your sobats to where you think the are safe. Reversal HK super will hit them EVERYtime. All regular sobats have 2 active frames and ex has 4. the safest any sobat can be is -5 and thats if LK sobat is blocked on the second active frame and ex sobat is blocked on the 4th active frame. That is considered not safe btw. THERE is no exception to this. This is the difference between you and me. I understand what I am talking about. challenge goes to cole to. If you are really feeling you guys are right no reason to not take me up right?
