CHICAGO 2016-2017 Thread: Welcome New Players, check out the Facebook Group page as its more active!

Yo Northsiders, I’m considering holding a weekly MvC3 gathering at my apartment. I live in East Roger’s Park, walking distance from both the Jarvis Red Line stop and the Howard Red/Purple/Yellow line stop. I have 3 screens and 1 system, so we’d need some peeps to bring their systems too. Max number of players counting myself would probably 6-8 before things started getting a little crowded. I’m thinkin’ Sundays might be best. Any interest in such a gathering?

dude there were all kinds of pandas that needed smashing at Chicago <3. If only you’d been there…

Tactics, when you see the vid you’re gunna kick yourself for leavin early. Brightside set up the spidey anti-phoenix trick twice in the grand finals. It was sick, people were losing their shit.

im interested.

Is this like a sure fire thing? or just an Idea? I’ve been looking for some people to get up with and play ssf4,bb and other stuff with.

It’s like 90% sure. It will almost certainly happen once, whether it turns into a regular weekly thing remains to be seen. If it’s not gunna work as a weekly thing, I’m not going to force it to.

I also probably should’ve mentioned I’m mainly interested in holding it for MvC3. I’m not hatin on other games, but in small gatherings like that it can suck when someone shows up to play one game and everyone else is playing another. I will edit the original post

If you want to get good at SSF4:AE id say GGA is probably best since that is our biggest game, followed by MK and then Marvel not too far behind MK. If you need a ride there are plenty of guys that are making a trip from the Northside to GGA on Wednesday when we have our Windy City Showdown provided you help them with gas. Just post on the forums and someone will reply! We have good players for just about any game though so come and get games in everything with some of the best in Chicago.

Yeah Chronocide Its not like I chose to leave early I had to leave early to pick up my step son from his bio dad(spends 1 night with his bio dad every other week). Really sucks cause I wanted to stay and spend all day there but not much I could do. Sorry to everyone If I looked so bummed out, my hands were half alive and I had to leave early = me in down mode.

Good stuff everyone especially heartnana and Kobayashi for landing the venue. Hope everyone had a good time

Anybody else going to be constantly checking YouTube for the next few days looking for the match video of CH3’s Marvel grand finals?

i could get there my self. And I could help with gas. Just tell me where Im going, when it is and if I need to bring my copies of games.

oh an I like MAHVEL i just haven’t played anybody good. Only my cousin has it and I body him for free even though he has had the game since it came out and ive only played it all of 6 times. (he sucks at it even tho he says hes good.) but yeah I like Mahvel 3 and Imma probably buy ultimate when it comes out.

matter of fact if I could meet up with somebody I could help with gas and all that. itd be easier for me.

nice triple post…

isn’t it a beaut?

Yo i’m mos def down. I live in evanston and would be cool with meet ups close to home

Let’s see your makoto…

you couldn’t handle my makoto. The sheer “suckage” of my makoto would make you rage quit.

CH3 was GREAT! I had a good time. Props to Heart, Kobayashi, and Humbag for keeping the order as well as setting up this event.
All 3 of you guys are pretty humble and cool.
Lol @ humbag for the brackets

TFA are some really cool down to earth people and they are all pretty good at what they do. You guys keep blowing it up!
Wolfkrone vs Big Marcus was hype!
Lord Hollow is fucking awesome! Lol
Stephen A.K.A. Wesker it was cool to meet you to. Had me laughing hard and you were an easy guy to get along with. Nice Sagat

Frankie G is a cool guy as usual and it’s always nice to see someone passionate about what they love. Keep your head up and keep up the good work man.

Always a pleasure to see Tactics. You’re a cool guy. Wish you could’ve stayed a it longer but I’ll be trying to play that Ibuki soon lol.

Sad I got put out early in Marvel…that’s the game I’m best at but it was a humbling experience so it’s back to the drawing board
MAD PROPS to my kid brother for pulling 9th in SSF4 (his goal was top 8) he leveled up hard and great job at getting 3rd in MvC3. WLA FTW!

J Money and Killa J it was nice seeing y’all. It’s always cool to sit back and laugh with you guys. You’re both some cool guys.
Flying V you’re hilarious. mad respect for you being such a good personality. That Kayo story was soooo funny…

Skillz always a pleasure. Don’t forget you need a ride just call me and if I’m going I got you. I’ll help you with Marvel as soon as I get a chance.

Phoney you went from being a problem in Marvel 2 to being a problem in Marvel 3 good shit!

Hope I get this right but I think it was Rightside…? The guy that used Spidey…Yea you blew it up! Peter Parker would be proud lol.

Props to all of those cool ass shirts I saw. Good taste fellas.

I think that sums it all up sorry that was mad long lol. Glad to meet a lot of new people especially one who enjoy the same things I do. Hope to keep coming out and leveling up. I’m going to get my Guy way better just watch and MvC3 I hope to be a force to be reckoned with! WLA all the way (Guy in the Hurley shirt cracking jokes for those who didn’t know lol)

Come to GGA and we’ll compete for the worst Makoto.

Thanks to Humbag, HeatNana, Chris, Elvenshadow, and everyone I am unable to name for making the tournament such a great time. I hope all the finals get posted (at the very least) since I had to leave early and could not catch any of it. Great to see a bunch of people turn up to support the event. Hope everyone has a safe trip home.

TJL

Edit: Frankie, I will show up at GGA 3-4, but probably won’t stay past 6.

I’m also still looking for a ride to GGA starting from the 31st. Sorry for spamming about it but I’d be more at ease if I can have something set up beforehand instead of at the last minute. Thank you.

Great tournament. All of them seemed to go on without a hitch. I wish I had time this last week to go out so I could practice on 360 but oh well.

Chrono - what day were you looking to host?
