Chicago: More Popular Than Porn ... The Legend Continues

One year anniversery for Noah and his lady. That shit is wild.

Can we get a Bar Fights happening? pls?

I don’t know if I’ll ever get to the next level. It’s not that I don’t feel like getting there or that I think I can’t, it’s just I feel like I came into the competitive scene late. I’ve played fighters since ST2 on SNES but only with SF4 have I got into it. I know I can play well but the basic fundamentals from playing competitive fighters for years is something I don’t have. It’s really awesome to play at these locals even if I’ve yet to win something, and if I ever do that’ll be more awesome. If I stick with it maybe it will just click and I’ll have the motivation to enter a major but until then I’m fine where I am.

i might be on ggpo or something

probably sf4 though

Im going to try to be @ gameworks this thursday (aug 6)

anyone down?

Happy birthday glb.

I can’t go to gameworks thursday… how bout we all go wednesday or friday instead? :open_mouth:

new thread? already 7 pages? not even gonna read it lol

sorry I didnt make it to any tournaments, I didnt really know the location/times until it was too late and ive been too busy visiting friends and stuff. It really shows me how much the scene has changed when all my main friends I used to play with are now doing other stuff while tournaments are going on, which causes me to miss them too cuz im too busy hanging with them heh

my girlfriend his here from Japan now so I dunno if im gonna be coming out for any game gatherings. is anything even going on from now until the 11th?

theres a few gatherings going on. they are listed on one of the previous pages…i dont remember which and im too lazy to check.

ok you convinced me…its on page 3

You should come out on Wednesday regardless. It’ll probably be more fun. Thursdays are messy, and there’s usually always a group of us there on Wednesdays.

So who was the long-haired Chun player that I played in casuals? I’m curious. I was the guy who bitched about Hazanshu killing my soul every time I get hit by it (seriously, fuck that move). That was seriously the best match I played during the entire time I was at FiO.

btw, the rereleases of the spacejams in all black/blue… Nov 27th, I think. 175 bucks.
Don’t be a goon and try to get them at a footlocker, just troop down to niketown. They never run out.

(Remember fuckin’ Troop shoes? haha)
<------->
Troop

Can also check crookedtongues.com, a uk joint. There’s flavor there too.

i updated the first post with gatherings for this week, so people dont need to sift through all the posts. i will remove/change it next week unless the people who posted about possible gatherings this week repost it.

EDIT: please note these are small gatherings, so post up or PM ppl if you are interested.

Lol @ Jen coming in and shutting everyone up with her first SRK post. :rofl:

I’m kinda with Jim in the sense that, although I don’t have as much going on with my life that can take me away from games (not married, no place to call mine yet), I still don’t have all the time in the world to practice. However, I like my happy medium. I’d like to be able to hold my own against you guys, and if I can do that much, I’m satisfied. If I can beat people, even better, but I doubt I’ll get to the point where I’m winning things consistently.

Chicago SRK: We do what we must, because we can.
For the good of all of us.
Except the ones who are dead.

God please, please don’t let my gf sign up and start posting.

Pleaseohpleaseohplease.

That’s the LAST thing she needs to find out about…I can hear it now

“Oh… Other people have girlfriends too?.. Are they pretty? Do they have nice tits too? Why don’t I post too…”

I swear you’ll never see a woman dragged by her hair to a curb and left there quicker.

awesome idea man.

if you can keep that updated as a weekly thing now so people can just look at the first post and figure out what’s going on, it would be much appreciated!

happy bday GLBeast!

yo Art, im going by pruchas today, gonna get some GG in, but we’d like to play BB as well if you and perseo or whoever wanna come by for a session, let me know whats up, call me or prucha later today

Watch, Now Jim’s gonna become a Hypebeast. Just wait and see…

LOL! Drunky! I should’ve MM’d you last night and taken some of that birthday/tournament moneys! :rofl: :tup: :wgrin:

Also, I want to play more SF4. I shouldn’t/don’t want to lose to random Abel’s anymore.

MadCooFace, I’ve only HEARD of stories of the basement. You gotta show me the promise land sometime (especially if you’re thinking about selling). Don’t even know if we’re the same size but it’s possible.

happy bday glb and gg at fio. ill get you next time.

reminder pm me if you want to attend the gathering at my house saturday.

Yo same here, unless you’re like size 8 then I’m fucked, lol!

GLB Birthday Represent!

Riot.EXE on Shoe-Fiends: I remember back when I lived in Houston…whenever a new edition of Jordans would drop, there would be notices on all the doors of my local mall that the Senior Citizens that normally walk the mall for exercise should reconsider that day because the mall was gonna be SWARMED with (Black*) people for the Jordans.

  • = This kind of shit would make the news, and all you’d ever see were just swarms of black people fightin’ for their pairs of J’s.
