Brampton 2004 Thread

cool

sounds like a long invented story someone like Marvin would post, but lets hope its real this time and based upon how I trust Justin, I’ll get my hopes up. On another note, is the mall open on Thursday? I’m guessing not . . . oh, and for Saturday, I’m going to need a ride from someone otherwise I can’t go . . . thanks, Pete

cool

I need you to meet me at some kind of central location. Steve and Tyrell are meeting me at BCC for 11:00am before we head out. Can you make that time and location?

ha they only want a tourney scene going there because they always take a cut.

Who wants me on team Brampton for CvS2?

Shoppers World!!

alright, I’m going to Shoppers today to play a full day of video games, anybody who can come, do so! If you don’t see me there, just keep playing, I’m probably just getting food or something, but I will be around for almost the whole day from around 2 to 7 or so, so yeah, everyone come!

Pete

Shoppers World!!

You have horrible timing. I work from 12:45pm - 9:15pm today, thus destroying any shot at all of going to Shoppers World to play. Are you able to come by my place around 9:30pm for casual? Considering it’s a holiday tomorrow we can all play for a good long period of time.

Is that invite open to Sauga peoples? If so I’m gonna try to make it there after piano lessons if you want.

ayight, . . .

shoppers world’s cvs 2 is kind of annoying, but it works, so yay!

their 3S is still good in my opinion, so yay again

however, their HF is on some crazy difficulty, I can’t get past Gief for the life of me, anyways, Jason showed up which was fun, I think I still came out on top, but his wake up jd throw is getting annoying, so I’ll have none of that . . . Geese is still a fucking beast, and Hibiki is still the ultimate bitch!!

umm, I don’t think I can make the rescheduled day for the 5v5 . . . I booked this saturday off, which was hard as it is, I don’t think they will let me, let alone if I could afford to miss any more work.

if it somehow could still be held this saturday then great, but otherwise, I might not be able to play then. Umm, what I was wondering was why doesn’t Jason drive us there, we can all chip in for gas, that way its not like Justin has to drive there and back and there again . . . or has this been thought of already and wouldn’t work? I dunno, anyways, later

Pete

oh, I beat Jason perfect!!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

If all else fails you can always sub me into team brampton… considering I play CvS2 with you guys more than I play with Sauga (none… with Sauga…).

Yep… that’s me trying to get in on some gaming because I have nothing better to do, lol.

ayight, . . .

Actually no, this option wasn’t explored. I have zero issue with this scenario. basically we’d split the rides up to Hamilton but Jason would have to drive Pete, Tyrell and Steve home. If that’s the case I am definitely on for this Saturday still at Eastgate Mall. Jason? Can you do it?

what time should me and tyrell meet yall at timmy’s?
11 as usual?

:confused: Steve’s on SRK? :confused:

Yeah we’re meeting at 11:00am as per usual and heading up a bit early for practice.

Hey guys. I just wanted to say good games to everyone. I had a good time today. Congradulations on winning. Not really sure what the final score was but it didn’t matter. Hopefully we could do this again some other time.

This was a great learning experience for me, and I’m looking forward to playing other members of Team Brampton again.

went to shoppers world today. I say that T5 should be held at shoppers world instead of orbit.

Sticks on 3s and cvs2 were a bit loose IMO but otherwise they were fine. ST and HF sticks need to be fixed. HF 2player side has occasional autojab and ST 2player side is just wack. I could do Fei Long triple kick consistently but I could only get flame kick 1 out of 100 tries.

If shoppers world manages to get A3 that would make it the best arcade in Ontario lol.

Shoppers world doesnt have the time slot needed for T5.

Exactly. Can’t believe what some people were thinking lol

hey don’t diss SW arcade
its the only thing we have in brampton other than the public library in downtown brampton.

Steve; I’m the king of that arcade now. Bow to me. :lol:

You and Tyrell meet me at 11:00am at BCC Tim’s for pick up tomorrow.

Wow it’s been a long day of games and we’re still going (I’m at UN).

Highlight Of The Day: 5th in CvS2

Low Point Of The Day: 5th in CvS2 (I’ll explain later in the log)

Line Of The Day: “You know guys, it’s just meat left, I think I’ll package it up and take it home with me.” (Ultra Random Black Guy is too good).

I basically got to sleep around 5:00am this morning after having played dominos with Marvin, Ryan & Wing. I figured I would get at least five hours sleep and then pick up Steve & Tyrell. How wrong I was. I forgot to turn off my alarm from the previous days work and so I wake up at 8:00am. THREE FUCKING HOURS SLEEP! I’m one of those people where when you’re up, it’s all over so I was screwed. There weren’t too many people up online so I just got brackets and watched some footage of previous stuff (Hamilton vs Brampton was jokes. “Oh it’s for the vaaaaaacuuuuuuum. That suuuuuuucks”). I run a couple of errands and then it’s off to Tim Hortons.

I take the time to clean out my trunk while waiting for Tyrell & Steve. I wait… and wait… and wait. Now I’m not really worried because Steve is notoriously late when I tell him to meet me. So I call his place at 11:15am and his dad says he’s still sleeping. GOD DAMN IT! I couldn’t know if Tyrell was on his way or waiting for Steve but either way I said fuck it and left on my own. The ride was sooooooo stupid as I completely missed the 407 exit and then get onto the 401 only to come back onto the 427 and grab the 407 from there. I reached early still and people are already playing Marvel and GGXX.

I nearly have a heart attack when the attendant tells me that they’re not aware of any tournament today and that we wouldn’t have Event Mode. I tell him to get his boss on the phone and sure enough Simon managed to hook us up a couple hours later. I pretty much run GGXX in casual until Stephen & Jay show up and then I run away like a little bitch. We do sign ups but I pull out of GGXX at the last minute (why was it $5 when every other tourney was $3?) because I’m not ready for pressure comp yet. I sign up for MvC2 & CvS2 and heeeeeere we go.

MARVEL VS CAPCOM 2

Vs Mike C (1st Round): I figured this would be a solid match as I played Mike in Waterloo a few months back and he was just above my level then and now I got better. Too bad I FUCKING SUCKED THE BAG! Nothing worked. NOTHING! It’s not the fault of the controls either, I just didn’t execute for shit. First game was back and forth, second game was an OCV. Just brutal.

Vs Karan (2nd Round - Losers Bracket): Since when does Karan play Marvel? Anyway, this was basically me getting away with tons of shit that better players would never fall for. I took it two straight without worrying about it.

Vs Nathan (3rd Round - Losers Bracket): Oh lord… every time I play G3nn his Magneto rapes me and then I try to work my way back. Well his Magneto raped me but there was no clawing back this time around. Peace Out.

CAPCOM VS SNK 2

Vs Karan (2nd Round): Most of the players got a bye in the first round. Karan managed to beat Teddy (which I can’t say I was expecting). I hadn’t played Karan in probably a year and 1/2 and didn’t take him seriously. I changed my tune pretty quick as he rushed me down pretty well and I was on the ropes early. Kim and C.U.R.T. made the comeback in the first match. Second match I took a big lead and nearly blew it but again C.U.R.T. saved me from an early loss.

Vs Dennis (3rd Round): Heh… this was interesting. I know Dennis has been tuning up for T5 so I was expecting a good match. I got one. The first match we go back and forth as he takes some A Groove team (sorry I forget what team) and I manage to take it from him. He switches to C Blanka/Chun/Sagat and I get destroyed by his Chun. Third match I put Vega in the back (True Tournament Team) and got a huge scare as he smokes my first two characters and it’s up to Vega to make the miracle comeback. I poke away at his Blanka and still have about 40% health left. Against Sagat while using Vega, that’s plenty. I turtle like a motherfucker, pick my spots and AA along with Air Throw at key points. I wittle him down to the point he’s got to rush before time runs out and I take it.

Vs Roger (4th Round): Sometimes I wonder why I bother to fight Roger and then we have games like this. First game he uses A Rolento/Blanka/Bison and I go even with him the entire way, use C.U.R.T. against his Bison and squeeze out a victory. So he switches to C Honda/Guile/Sagat and NOW I’M SCARED! His Honda is a total monster and I’m Roger’s bitch for two games. Just ugly.

SOOOOOOOOO…

NOTHING!

The time ran out just as I was supposed to face Ian (GOD DAMN IT). I want to finish at METRO but Dennis and Ken protest and we manage to settle things by giving Roger 1st, Ken 2nd, Ian 3rd via Rock Paper Scissors playoff with Dennis. Dennis of course gets 4th and I get stuck with 5th. Truth be told I know I can take Ian at this point and was really disappointed I didn’t get my shot at him. Ah well…

I’m at UN right now and it’s pretty fun. I’m basically playing GGXX, MvC2 and 3S so I get my money’s worth. I’ll finish the log when I’ve dropped people off later tonight.

Justin, I feel your pain, we were both doing scrubby ass jumping fierce the entire game. Gay!

If T5 is gonig to be at orbit, somone needs to get the techs to fix the goddamn machine. Maybe like put in a new set of buttons or something.

My goodness, by the end of the tourney, 1p side was like kiss of death. No one wanted to play on that side.
