you know the rules for panbread… eat your own shit… the whole point is to put your money(panbread) where your mouth is… QUOTE]
Ray, it was just a joke…
of course, I am going to eat those loaves myself if I lose the panbread challenge. I am sure Mahir will do the same… this PC challenge is just like the first one, which is friendly competition, and there is no hatred involved. So don’t get me wrong, Mahir. :tup:
Man, all the exam pressure has gotten to you lately… your temper is getting to be quite bad. Calm down… we just want to have some fun bull shit alot when we have the chance.
But if Mahir is to do panbread, you just come and watch without the eating part from you… but I did set you up to say that you would eat for me and of course only quote the right phrases from you… HAHAHA. :tup:
300ZX,
Hey, haven’t heard the word “thanks” from anyone in the arcade besides a few like Mike, Vong, Johnson… People seem to take me for granted or they think I get paid a seven figure salary for doing this. However, I do appreciate you guys for coming out :tup: . Now, I understand why people like Vong stopped running gaming events… you get nothing in return, but bunch of shit from everyone. :tdown:
This week’s 3rd strike will be great, Makoto will own all !! :karate:
In case, if there is only 1 cvs2 cabinet available on the 18th for the tourney, we will do quick round robins with the local people to determine the top few. Then adds on the out of towners, we will make it a 16 people tourney.
Yes, people who enter the round robin do pay entry fee, so stop asking about the pot!!! This is not 6-49, and there is no estimated jackpot available! :wow:
Round robins are actually longer than double elimination tourneys. Unless they are best of 1. It’s still possible to do the 16-32 double elim… I think we had twenty something at the last Cove tourney… but it’s just really long.
I thought I was telling you something you didn’t know. Round robins aren’t quick. So your suggestion is actually gonna be longer than just doing a regular double-elim. Not to mention the fact that it screws the “not so good” people over. Me, you, and the other Byron constantly beat everyone else every single week… and the one time they play in a tourney, they get beat by us in the round robin, without any chance of playing any out of towners.
Let’s use MvC2 as an analogy. Would you rather pay entry fee and lose to Ray/Corey/Regent in a round robin. Or would you rather pay entry fee and lose to Tao/James in a double-elim. I would probably pick the 2nd one. I already pay 10 bucks just to lose to Ray in MvC2 every week.
Basically stick with what you got. If there’s a 2nd machine… then all the better. If not, then you just gotta wait a couple more hours. It’s been done before with 1 machine so we know that it’s possible.
I don’t think anyone here is giving you crap Ian. The 10 dollar weekend thing has been great so far, keep up the good work. One suggestion would be to use EVENT mode for those games with tournaments. That way, people are actually able to change characters at the end of a match.
Edit: Doesn’t look like LTB can make it. There’s already a tourney in Seattle on the same date.
Hey i definatly appriciate you holding these events on your own time here! ! it would be a shame to have an event like this go away, then the dam edmontonians will get one step ahead of us in the cliche culture. anyways Thanks IAN ! ! i get bored of fighting games easily cause playing against the computer suxx! ! but now i got actual people to play against (even though i get whooped!) it’s still fun. If you need any help holding these events and such, you should give me a holla, since i don’t have to deal with stupid assignments, projects, exams anymore. I can lend some free time to help to get things done :tup:
Byron, sorry about the poor usage of words from the previous post, I was in a shitty mood when I wrote it.
I told the owner several times with event mode, and apparently I have to be right beside him and remind him when he opens those machines up. It’s like he opens the machines up so early, and leaves before we even get there.
If we were to do round robins, the previous seeded people in Calgary aren’t going to participate in it… just the others in a single match round robin. However, since you guys are cool with even running the whole thing with one machine… then that’s fine with me.
Should we band turtling to ensure we have enough time for cvs2 tourney? Just KIDDING !!!
Ray,
That wasn’t a discussion… it was just our regular chat… don’t make it sound so formal, man.
Don’t worry, the Saturday gaming night will continue for sure. I am sorry for all that whinning, I wasn’t in a very good mood when I wrote those stuff.
upon formal diplomatic banter between ian and myself after his people called my people… we have now discussed the current situation and we have come to the conclusion… EVERYONE HERE ARE BABIES AND CAN’T TAKE JOKES…
losers…
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
btw:my kgroove has gone very downhill from back in the days… shitty…
Today at the cove: only 3 people there at the time (Ian, Raymond, Raj) This is ridiculous!
Raj attempted to do shoshosho, but we all know he ain’t good at the game YET. He did like 5 set of quick uppercut then missed. Then:
Raymond to Raj: You did better than other people
Ian: SHUT up! Ray.
Raymond laughed like hell, and denied the fact that he was referring me as the “other people”.
Ray, you know the truth! You know what, I think when we record those matches from the tourney, I will actually do a perfect shoshosho just for you and retire you from mvc2. Then you will have all the time for cvs2, and get your ass whipped.
Man I really would’ve thought everyone would be Ian’s best friend for setting up the free play arcade! Many props to Ian for setting it up :tup: :tup: :tup:
On to other news, someone make me a decent team in CvS2, I just can’t compete :sad:
An no R4 Joe teams Ray, I know what your thinking… Scrawny men in boxer shorts
So any idea whats happening this saturday (in terms of the mini tourny)?
Hey Ian. To help you out so you don’t have to keep on redrawing up brackets here’s some PDF files that you can just print out each time you have a tournament. Should save you some time.
They’re seeded 1-8/1-16/1-32… should be very helpful. If you have like 24 people then seeds 25-32 count as byes and you basically just follow the flowchart.
Ian, calm down man. I don’t think anyone is giving you shit. Actually I prefer the Round Robin myself, but Byron is right, it does take a long time now that I think about it. A normal double elim is fine. It doesn’t look like it’ll break 30 people (per game) from the sound of it.
One thing though, I think everyone likes what you’re doing with the $10 weekend special. We show up and play and support your idea. What more do you want? Sure we throw out suggestions and talk shit (okay, Ray talks shit b/c he know he can never beat me ) but it’s because we want to make it better.
300XZ: Guess what, my Christmas party got canceled so I’m free this Sat. Get ready for a Chun Li ass kicking (thanks Erim!)
EDIT: F$%K, I’m too slow to this conversation. Oh yeah, whoever is hosting Moe for the night before the tourney, I won’t let him near your dog.
Mgslee(Mike),
Sakura/bison/blanka in A-groove will do ! J/K, but if you can use that team well, then all power to you! GO! shoshosho!
Again, this week is 3rd strike, come as early as 5pm, or the tourney starts at 6:30pm. Seriously, consider A-akuma/rolento/cammy(2), and I will teach you what I know.
Byron,
Thanks for the link, because I have brackets for 8 and 16, but not one for 32. We’ve got to practice up for cvs2, guy… get there early on Saturday. I will see if Byron. V can make it and stay longer this week… and we should do some serious training. No more fooling around teams for me this week.
Trung,
Man, you’ve got to see some of those previous posts before posting… but yeah it’s good that you can make it.
What more do I want? I have a list of things that I want, do you really want to know?? :wow:
it’s funny that i can only face right doing shoshoshosho, and can only do bison facing left… wtf is up with that…
on a random thought… vongs a fag… simple… i don’t like the guy… simple… once you’re on my “don’t fucking like list…” you’re done for… and if you ever reach the “curb stomp list” you better pray for your fucking sakes…
see… why does master trung understand his understudy??? WHY!!! WHY CAN HE ONLY SEE WHAT I’M DOING… i’m TRYING TO MAKE THINGS AND PEOPLE BETTER… :karate:
AND THE CONVERSATION WENT LIKE THIS…
me and raj playing cvs2…
he grabs me w/ sakura, and then activates his cc and i’m like okay, i’m sure he can’t do it…wtf does he do… he gets 5 consectutive uppercuts at a decent speed… WOW…
so then after he misses it … i say
ray: "wow… you can do that better than most people"
raj: "thanks"
OUT OF NOWHERE…
ian: "SHUT UP"
ray: "HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH"
just uncontrollable laughter ensues, cause i was referring to other people that try it like mike, vong, and other random people that thinks it’s easy…
ian: "I KNOW YOU WERE REFERRING TO ME"
ray: "HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAA"
raj: ""smiling on his face"
ray: "HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH"
ian: "SHUT UP"
ray: "HAHAHAHAHAAIHAHAHAHASWEARHAHAHAHAIHAHAHAWASN:THAHAHAREFFERRINGAHAHTOHAHAHAYOU!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
and the laughter continues
Ray, even when your not trying to be mean you are. Cause I think anyone who knows you just a little bit knows it wouldnt be beyond you to be poking fun at Ian while giving Raj a compliment.
Anyways, someone has got to show me the timing of shoshosho so I can practice it… I think my damn problem is I’m going to fast
I need a good N or C team so I can use guile… Back fist of death :karate: I think its to late for me to try to pick up JDing…
C- guile/chun li/Sagat(2) Team old time Diago. But your guile better be as good as Diago, or he will die miserably to all the vegas out there. Chun li’s medium punch poke of death with Sagat’s super coaching fierce = TOO GOOD. (only if you link a super after though) :karate:
