i dunno if havin two team tournys is very hype let alone a team tourny as the main event
Gaming party with the Fort Wayne crew – 12/26
Hey gang. Didn’t know if this was worth posting because it might not be worth a 2.5+ hour drive and also it’s Christmas time. Anyway, most of you have probably never met our friend Abe but he used to come to tourneys with our Fort Wayne crew and he’s a real cool guy that is easy to get along with. Women, try not to let your jaws drop to the ground. J/K.
My point is that he occasionally hosts gaming parties at his house. It’s been awhile since he’s held one but alas he is gonna throw one this Saturday, December 26. It will likely start around 7pm and usually lasts until something like 3am or 4am, sometimes even a little longer. Sadly he cannot offer anyone to stay the night so you’d have to retreat for home (or a local hotel and there are plenty nearby). He also offers anyone drinks. He has pop and alcohol but he won’t give you alcohol if you are driving or under the age limit, so he’s a responsible host. His girlfriend is also going to make a few pizzas and I can assure you she is an awesome cook! He only asks that everyone gives up $1 to help pay for just a portion of the food/drinks for the night.
He has 2 tv’s which will be put to good use for SF4, Tekken 6, CvS2, and probably a little 3S. Probably no HDR or BB and definitely no Smash or GG. Sorry.
He also has arcade games in a few spots in the house. The controls aren’t perfect to be honest but it’s all on free play so it’s all good. He’s currently got ST, Metal Slug 4 (I think it’s 4 but could be a different one), a combination KI1/KI2 machine, MvC2, XMvSF, MK2, AvP, and SFZ3 Upper. He’ll have all these playing for free all night on arcade cabinets.
Finally he always throws a mystery tournament each party. Free to enter and top 3 get prizes, which in the past have varied from things like Evo t-shirts to SF action figures and even little statues, SF2 6 button control pads, etc. The games vary. Typically a current fighting game so probably SF4 or Tekken 6 but he won’t say and last time he threw us a curveball and called Fight Night Round 4.
Anyway this is all the cool points of his parties I can think of. Might not be worth it because it starts late and sadly you have to find your way back home or to a hotel afterwards. But just throwing this out there if anyone is interested for those of you who know our crew (me, Dave, Gary, a few others). If anyone is interested just write in our thread or send me a PM and I’ll gladly supply the address/phone # or whatever info you need.
I will also make this post in the Dayton thread. Even though I like the Ohio players I still can’t figure out who exactly is from Dayton, Cincy, etc.
so i was thinkin it might be a good idea to set up a 360 for the casuals goin on during the tournys tomorrow just to make sure there will be enough sticks for the ps3s
What’s happenin’ everyone!?
Keith: Glad 2 see u’ll be out 4 Christmas Combat my good sir. :tup:
Vega: If I didn’t have Christmas stuff bogging me down, I would actually go 2 ur Gathering up in Ft. Wayne, but sadly enough I won’t be able 2 make it out there. Hope all goes well 4 it though, sounds pretty sweet. :tup:
Phil, Kris, Brandon, & Derrick: I’ll be giving u guys a call later 2nite 2 finalize plans 4 2maro. I’ll be waking up around 12pm & getting everything ready, so I’ll be heading out more likely around 1pm to pick ppls up. Kris would be 1st, Phil 2nd, Brandon 3rd, & Derrick last, so I guess plan accordingly on what time u should be up/getting ready if I can’t get ahold of ya. :tup:
See everyone 2maro @ AL. Take it easy & have a good one. Peace. :china:
Kris, I was wondering if the video equipment you are using is anything I can borrow. If not, don’t worry about it and I’ll just set up a few recording sessions with Kameron, but if so, that would be totally awesome and convenient for me.
I better see a lot of you tomorrow at AL. I madea TON delicious cookies. That need to be eaten. By all of you.
There will be:
Chocolate Chip
No Bakes
Sugar
and Snickerdoodles
I’ll be at the arcade tomorrow. I HOPE I don’t have to pick my sister up from Frankfort. If I can dodge that bullet, I’ll be at the arcade early…C.P.T. early.
I have 4 sticks now (2 modded SEs and 2 TEs) so there will definitely be enough sticks. I’ll set up the 360 as well though.
Make extra snickerdoodles…I will eat them all.
I have no idea on what a snickerdoodle is but if it’s free 99 I’ll take some…and some negrodoodles too…
hell ya snickerdoodles are the shit make lots and ill def be there early with prob tom mingie and the whole bellamy family o and brian i think kodi is comin up after work. does anyone know if mike south will be there…huh mike ya gonna come out and boot up some 4 with us. we could play some smash tv and ill yell at some dumb slut named cammy again
If Mike South comes, it will be a Christmas to rememeber
See y’all tomorrow for some cookies and fights

hey, when are most of the fighting game crew at arcade legends? i’ll be up from lexington over the break and wanted to check out the arcade for the first time. any place that has a cvs2 arcade machine must be seen! i was thinking about heading up there either this coming saturday or monday (for the $6 deal). anybody wanting some cvs2, mvc2, or ST competition should come on by.
do josh q or any other OG team cincy heads go there often? let me know what you guys think since i’d much rather play people than the computer.
peace and happy holidays
Thursday night is THE night although this Thursday is New Years eve so it won’t be happening. Does everyone want to do Wednesday next week or should we take a week off? Definitely come on Jan 2nd if you are in town. Ranbat day for SFIV and MvC2 plus an NBA JAM and a JACKIE CHAN: FISTS OF FIRE tournament. We just had a tournament tonight so I doubt there will be many (if any) there this Saturday. Also, SF Alpha 3 Upper is in the CvS2 cab right now but I can switch it easily so if you come, just ask me to switch it for you.
I need to get my revenge in CvS2 against you Mr. Chris Rose pupil.
Looks like we are doing game night at AL on Wednesday next week due to New Years. Last chance to get some NBA JAM practice in before the 2v2 on Jan 2nd.
i can prob make it out wed ill have my oldest girl with me and ive been lookin for an excuse to bring her back to the arcade
Merry Christmas sluts!
Hope all of you have a nice one.
