Hey ya’ll so it’s raining bad. If you still manage to come on down more power to you. I appreciate the trip.

If any of you do get here please knock on the garage and DO NOT KNOCK ON THE FRONT DOOR. Yes I said the wooden gate will be open but it’s probably all muddy due to the rain. You’ll know that someone is there because it should be obvious with the light in the garage. I might be running a little late today because I gotta pick up my co host Phenomenub. So if there is a light in the garage that means I am there. If it’s dark it means I’m running late. Thank you. Be careful getting here.

168

upto the minute updates , ahha better than twitter ;p 6:27 rain or no rain

169

Gonna be EXTRA grumpy tonight cuz I’ve been up for 30+ hours. GIVE ME FREE WINS TO MAKE ME FEEL BETTER!!!

Oh, and pizza.

PS. I’m gonna stab you dime.

170

We are now in session. We have a nice group despite a rainy day . Everyone come before 11pm. Thanks.

171

Good battles as usual. Sorry we bounced so early but we had to consume some drinks.

I haven’t been practicing as much as I should, but I’m slowly levelling up. I can smack VORTEXnub around at least!

As a former pad-player, I’m psyched to finally have SRK-FADC-ultra in my toolset now. I know that’s pretty scrubby to just now be getting it down, but it’s satisfying to finally do it.

Don, you are my nemesis.:smokin:

edit: And the stripper told me she’s coming back next week, so make sure you show up.

172

strippers on don’s arcade? O_O

173

I like to thank everyone for showing up today despite the rain. It was awesome. Had a lot of fun.

Josh: Thanks again buddy for cohosting and helping me set up. And thank you so much for getting everyone In N Out. And thanks for the 3 by 3.

Marlon: Thank you so much for letting us use your PS3 set up. It was a big deal. If not, there would be too many ppl waiting to play SF4. Everyone who went to the gathering today thank Marlon.

Dime: It was fun battling you in Alpha 2 and SF4. I think you got the better of them tonight. GG.

Symbolic: Thanks for joining us again and thank you for letting us use your PS3 tourney stick. Too bad we didn’t play any third strike tonight but the Alpha 2 battles were great.

Strider Chris: Thanks for finally joining us. It was fun playing your Abel. You’re leveling up big time. You caught me a couple of times.

Judotrip: Thanks for showing up and joining us again. It’s always great to have you. You’re getting better bro. You improved a lot. Your Ryu can hang with me now. GG’s man.

Jeremy: Thanks bro for coming back again. We missed having you. Hope you had fun playing the games and I hope we’ll see you next week.

Neil: It’s always great having you bro. I’m glad you’re just not a SF4 player. I’m glad you also show interest in Super Turbo and 3S. I see that your SF4 Chun Li is kinda scary. I got to play it next week.

Emon: I’m sorry if I didn’t spell your name right but your Akuma rocks. It’s crazy. And I had a difficult time adapting. Great intense battles bro. I look forward to playing you again.

Stripper: Thanks

Thanks again for joining us despite the rain. My arcade games ain’t shit if I don’t have players who appreciate them so I’m glad all of you went today and made this eventful as always.

The guys who came over last week but didn’t this week where are you?

Zerogunner, Harry,Renso,and Joon’s crew please rejoin us. We need you guys.

If anyone is interested in joining the gathering pm me or Phenomenub. I would like to have more 3S and Marvel players.

I need someone to volunteer to please bring a PS3 set up with two tourney sticks (we only play SF4 on tournies) for next week.

Thank you everybody.

Next week!!!

174

Thanks Don and Josh for putting together a dope event, I think we got alotta up in coming players from Torrance that will be wreckin shop soon. Was great playing the Chun-lis there and the Akuma. I got a lot of work to do with Abel… Lol glad I hit people with a least one of my mixups

175

fuck… i need to find me some chainmail… GOGO EBAY!

gg’s to everyone, it was fun playing A2, don you’re awesome for putting it in! your ryu will do alot better against my chun when you start customing through my AA’s… i was waiting for you to do it, but you never did.

symbolic… i seem to have no holes in me except for the ones i suffered from getting buttfucked by that downback ryu of yours! GG’s dude always fun to play you, hopefully i find out a decent strat to take out that great goaline turtle your ass off in the corner defense that you put up, it was fun to play against a turtle style that abused blocking and not running away.

and that rushdown akuma on 3s was mighty sexy as well… i kept trying to parry divekicks and instead ended up eating foot to face countless times… GOOD STUFF!

neil: man that chun of yours is SOOOO FRUSTRATING! to play against! AWESOME! i like it when i’m challenged to the extent of my ability, and you more than do that every time we play, i like it!

emon: nothing i can say other than ridiculous akuma action from you as always… man i hate vortex…so keep that shit rocking! :rock:
the one thing i would say now is that since you’ve got 90% of the vortex down, you MAY want to start throwing some of his resets into your game, a couple of right guesses will end rounds very quickly.

also i think you should learn what characters lk tatsu >sweep works on… cause that shit leads right into another, high advantaged mixup, for akuma… making your broken shit, even MORE BROKEN!!! MWHAHWAHAHHHH!

josh: thx for the dobledobles :tup:

and gg’s to everyone else, cool to see a new chunner as well.

so my fei long experiment has come to a close… i’ll be rocking sagat and rog next week… hoping i can get the entire roster to being “playable” for myself by the time that super comes out.

I wasn’t turtling. I was sandbagging and being defensive.

177

lol i know… thats why i called it a “style” not how you actually play.

we can all play different styles.
nevertheless it was fun.

on a different note
whats this shit i hear about strippers? dimes down with that shit!

-dime

178

You don’t remember the hot blond stripper last night that gave us all free lapdances so that she could play puzzle fighter? She told us to call her Cammy:p

179
