Is there a 3s cab at Silver city (Trinity commons)?
nope, just a broke ass cvs2 machine…and a marvel machine…though i don’t know how well that works.
Actually that Marvel machine may well be the best one in the West GTA if not the entire GTA. I have never had a problem playing on it and it’s the only machine I can consistently Triangle Jump on instead of getting the 30/70 rate or so I get on any other stick (outside of my own of course).
Well if yesterday was any indication I’m in good shape to grab a high spot in this Saturday’s tournament. BTW Jay; fuck your “Angry Sagat.”
Ian; I really think you should re-consider on coming on Saturday. You’ll be missing out on a great chance to learn a lot.
Steve; try to get a hold of Tyrell and see if he’s in.
Pete; will you be back in Brampton on the Friday night? You may be able to grab a ride with Jason. If not let me know if you have arrangements to York U from UofT. Also is Charles coming?
Everyone (aside from me) meet Jason at Tim Hortons outside BCC at 11:00am.
Yeah I want to come too, but if there’s no way back… lol. Im not spending the night at York U :tdown:.
Well Ian’s out but Tyrell is in.
Jason; he’ll meet up with you, Steve and Gandhi at BCC Tim Horton’s for 11:00am.
Jason; in case you don’t get my MSN message, disregard the phone conversation we had earlier. I’m still going to give the tournament a green light barring something ridiculous when I look outside tomorrow morning. It doesn’t look like I’m taking Sauga folks anymore so if you want we can all go in my car and meet up at 11:00am like you were going to for the other guys anyway. Let me know either in here or on MSN by tomorrow morning.
Yo im dropping out. Its flippin cold outside. its like -40 or sumthin and im a tropical ppl and we dont like that.
Shut up and get on the bus. That’s the worst excuse I’ve ever heard.
Haha…after all the trash talking, Steve ends up proving he’s the King of Brampton at York…:lol:
haha Steve regulated everyone much props to that
Steve’s Steve is cheap!!! Fuck you steve, and your steve.
If I based how much fun I had at York yesterday on my performace I’d have said yesterday sucked… but it didn’t.
Highlight Of The Day: Either Jeff’s Grand Finals comeback over Jay or Bryan’s Mutant Miracle in MvC2 Grand Finals.
Low Point Of The Day: 9th place in CvS2. That’s my worst placing in ages.
Line Of The Day: “You can trust me girl. I know I’m a stranger but it’s OK, I go to church.” (Steve yapping about finding ways to hook up with new girls who don’t know you)
Well everything leading up to this tournament was drama with the weather but a talk with G3nn last night basically told me to run this no matter what unless it’s total mayhem on Saturday morning. I left the house around 10:30am and the snow was blowing around pretty hard but the roads weren’t bad at all (the benefit of light snow is that it doesn’t fuck up the roads too badly).
I hit Tim Hortons and there’s Tyrell standing in the front corrider with some girl. We chat for a bit and then Tyrell asks me to drop this girl off at a high school down the street. I’m like “uh… alright?” I mean come on, who’s going to make some girl walk in that kind of weather? So I buy a Hot Chocolate to warm up and then put it in my cup holder and never touch it again. Good work Justin. Anyway we drop the girl off and then I’m like “Tyrell, where do you know her from?” and he shoots back with “I just met her.” FUCKING PIMP! All I’ve got to say on that subject is that girl is fucking trusting as hell. She meets Tyrell for about 10 minutes, meets me for about 2 minutes and then trusts the two random black guys to drive her someplace. That is what we call FUCKING STUPID! If she’d met the wrong people she’d have been in a lot worse situation. We talked about the story at night driving home and that’s where Steve came up with that line.
Anyway we get Gandhi after dropping the girl off and head to York U. We took the 407 because there was no way in hell I was going to touch the 401 in this weather and it was smooth. We made it in about 20 minutes and then waited forever because there was no one to open Cove.
HEY IT’S VRUS!
HEY IT’S CHUN LI WHY TRY! AND HE’S A WHITE BOY!
HEY IT’S KIN!
HEY IT’S POPEYE’S $3.99 SPECIAL!
It should be noted by this time that the Hamilton group has called my cell phone about five times trying to make their way to The Cove because they can’t follow simple directions. This isn’t rocket science people.
401 to Keele.
Exit Northbound
Take Keele to Steeles
Make a left on Steeles
At your first York U entrance make a left
You will reach a stop sign and right in front of you a semi circle
Enter the semi circle and take it left
After a while you will see an automated garage on the right hand side
Beside that garage is a parking lot with the gates up. Park there, it’s free on the weekend.
Did I miss something? Is that so hard to follow? Anyway, one of the Cove employees used secret ninja tactics to get inside because no one saw her go in there except me who caught it just out of the corner of my eye. CRAAAAAAZY! Cove opens up and we take registration. It went pretty smooth except for the random drop outs (Ian, Wing, Dennis who at least called) and the nutty car breaking down incident of Team White Boyz (who I’m sure will cover it on their own).
21 FOR CvS2! WOW
32 FOR 3S! HOLY SHIT!
Marvel was broken as fuck so that didn’t start up… until much later. This all started when we tried to unlock Sentinel but none of the codes worked. Then the machine started to freeze up. I don’t think it could have been any worse for the Marvel players. So I go to Marc and tell him that moving these boards is a fucking cakewalk (relatively speaking) and to just switch the machine. He eventually complies and we start Marvel about five hours late.
MARVEL VS CAPCOM 2
Vs Daren (1st Round): It’s been ages since we last saw Daren. I thought I was playing Angry Black at first to be honest but whatever. We both run Storm/Cable/Commando. I take the first match pretty easy after settling down and not eating Corrider over and over. Second match we switch sides because Daren didn’t like the stick and he had good reason. It wasn’t stablized properly. I drop the second match and then the third match turned into this ugly turtlefest but I got in a couple of lucky Hailstorms and ran away for like thirty seconds.
Vs Jiggabry (2nd Round): Bry runs with Strider/Magneto/Doom. First match I can’t tell if Bryan was going easy on me but I actually made a go of it with him as I take out Strider early and most of his Magneto and Doom. Then I got pinned in the corner and Bryan rushed me down horribly with Magneto. That game was mine to lose. Second game was nothing like the first as he rushed me down with Mags again to build meter and then ALBATROS! PORT! came in and I couldn’t do a thing (I did block way better than I have at any point playing Marvel though so that’s a plus)
Vs Ruben (2nd Round - Losers Bracket): This match is my own stupidity. Ruben runs Jill/Sakura/Psylocke and I immediately thought he was some low tier scrub. I took him lightly right off the bat and my Cable is dead before I know it from a couple of Jill slide OTG BS combos. It all fell apart after that. I take the second match but softening him up with Storm and then AHVB’ing my way through the rest. Third match I could take out Jill (who’s obviously the key to the whole thing) and didn’t roll out of the slide (which Gerjay kept telling me to do) and got smoked.
CAPCOM VS SNK 2
Vs Jiggabry (2nd Round): I got a bye in the first round being seeded 4th. I use Weapon X and Bry runs Team Ino. I got the job done in the first match as Hoahmaru does boatloads of damage taking out two characters. Bry makes the comeback with Sagat but I held on for the victory. Second match was more even but truth be told was mine to lose and I did blow it. Third match I had absolutely no business winning. Bryan ran over Vega & Kim. I had Guile in the back to counter Sagat. Thing is his Cammy already took about 1/2 my health before even getting to Sagat. So I play a very patient game, zone just enough and wait for Bry to throw fireballs so I can roll throw. I basically just wittled him down just enough so that when the timer was winding down he had to rush and I smacked him with two backfists to seal it. Sooooooo close.
Vs Luu (3rd Round): This was a match that drove me nuts. Luu runs K Zangief/Ryu/Sagat. Guile and Kim both work against Gief but I was stupid. He ran Ryu first and destroyed Guile and most of Kim. So now it’s comeback time but I couldn’t get anything going. Vega made it close but the end wasn’t in doubt. Second match I know what he’s going to do so I put Kim to counter Ryu but HE SWITCHES ORDER! WHAT THE FUCK?! I’m not going to bitch about order in the tourney but I’m making it clear for METRO that winners can’t switch order. Anyway, my Kim runs Gief and then he gets meter and I got scared and he takes me down 100% in like ten seconds. After that I just didn’t have it together and he busts me up. His Sagat c.hp timing was perfect and busted up Backfist horribly.
Vs Steve (4th Round - Losers Bracket): We’ve done this match up a billion times in casual. Steve’s N Joe/Bison/Ryu vs my C Guile/Kim/Vega. Steve pretty much played the best game I have ever seen him play. He ran me pretty good in the first match without ever losing his lead. I switch order to put Vega first with Kim in the back and it was working as Vega takes down two characters on his own. Then his Ryu comes AAAALLLLL the way back as I turtle up, get chipped away little by little until the times runs out and I can’t chase him down in time. GG’s to Steve, he played better than I’ve ever seen him play.
HIGHLIGHTS:
York U 3rd Strike crowd was very vocal and I was glad to hear it. :tup:
“That’s trailer worthy.” :lol:
Gerjay is good enough to hang with Eric in MvC2 and now CvS2. :wow:
Keeping my betting record high at 15 - 1 taking Kin’s money today. :badboy:
I learned so many new tricks off Eric’s Nakoruru. :bgrin:
THE MUTANT MIRACLE!
The nutty matches in Tekken 5 between Kevin/Steve/Tyrell/CQ/Noodleman and Angry Black. :nunchuck:
GG’s to everyone yesterday. It was an awesome time and probably would have been bigger & better without the snow. :pleased:
Yea GG’s to everyone. Roger was my inspiration yesterday. Tekken 5 is a wicked game. Dark Dragons asuka is good and angry blaks lei messed me up good. Dam drunken style. Everyone should learn to play T5 and find out how to beat my steve cuz steve’s amazing and so is my steve in tekken 5.
I’d just like to note that curt told us to go past the building with the CANADA FLAG.
that should read gerjay is good enough to murder eric in marvel and hang with him in cvs2 :tup:
murk, bry, it’s murk!
murk… merc!!! spell it right, mr. I can’t speak english cause I wanna be japanese so I automatically play CvS2 better… Yeah… I’m lost too. Guess this is what doing laundry does to me…
i guess it was a bad day for gerjay since he lost to me in marvel, 3s, cvs2 (twice) :sad:

Boourns Eric, he owned me in every game. So mean!
