Congrats to Alex for beating everyone’s ass! :wgrin:

Great games to everyone I played in the tourney!! Lot’s of really tense matches.

Big shout outs to Soul Intake and Shoo for providing the Xbox and PS3 used for the tourney. (Next time im gonna bring my 360 too for backup)

Also big shout outs to Shoo, Cesar, Alex, and everyone else that helped me track down people when I inherited running the tourney. You guys made my life much easier.

It was really great to see everyone again and to meet a lot of people I’ve played and talked to only online for the first time in person.

Finally, major props to all the folks who came in from out town and made this a really big, action-packed weekend.

Good times!! :lovin:

14

Ventura County Star article

Random SF4 and ST vids. Sorry, some of the vids I took didn’t come out and some, well, I don’t think people would really want broadcast heh.

Great games guys! Had a sick day yesterday, nice seeing everyone. Really impressed by how everyone stepped their 4 game up in the two months since my last tourney and by how well people are using characters that basically nobody was using at all just a couple months ago. Wish I could have been there today, but good job to the placers. Awesome tournament! Screw shoutouts, there are too many.

15

Thanks alot gootecks for keeping us posted.

16

That was a fun and exhausting weekend. I never thought I would see so many people at an arcade in 2009. :rofl:

I wanna thank all the players that came out, especially those that had to travel far, to support the scene. I don’t play for money, I play because of my competitive drive and I wouldn’t be playing at all if there was no competition to play with. I was definitely happy to see so many people there.

Also, I wanna thank those that helped ran the tourneys during the weekend, I know it was hard finding the players.

Big thanks to Soul Intake(don’t even trip about what happened) and Shoo for providing their 360 and PS3 for the HDR tourney.

And finally, good games to everyone I played over the weekend, it was a lot of fun. If I were to lose to anybody at all, I’m glad I lost to Valle, who I have no problems losing to.

It was a lot of fun meeting everyone there and we definitely need to run it back next year, or possibly sooner!

Good shit guys!

Good shit to Felix (GamerTron) for placing high and repping Vegas. Too bad I didn’t make it out there. Is there a character breakdown per player or vids for STHD?
