EGS/Rochester, NY Area Players Thread ( December 2003 )

Is every server out to kill all the treants to enable teleport or something? My friend on Fenrir was all happy cuz his server was the first to get all of them.

I propose that this thread be moved off of Shoryuken to… oh, some FFXI fansite. Well, maybe gamecombos. At least you guys have touched GGXX in the last six months. When was the last time anyone here played a Capcom-originated fighter?

What the hell is all this jibba-jabba? I have no idea what any of you are talking about. I’m not suprised, given how little I play (10 hours a week on average), and I have no intent of playing it much more than that (and everyone else here does). One of those traditional quandaries with these online role-playing games, with different amounts of playtime setting people apart.

I guess I’m wondering what happens when everyone passes me by for the last time… then the game won’t have that social hook for me anymore (unless I get involved in a social community of some sort, and by and large they don’t like dealing with n00bs like me. I doubt ones in FFXI are any different; there’s no reason for it to be so). The fact that I’m god-awful at the game doesn’t help (half an hour? It took me 5 hours to get from level 1 to 5).

I don’t know what I’m rambling about – I think I just wonder why I play (much in the same way I wonder about a lot of things in life). Sure as hell isn’t because the game is fun… but that alone hasn’t stopped me before.

Yeah guess Fairy got the warp finally, I think we lost a bunch of high level JPN players in the migration tho.

Oh what’s deal with Ira’s but drink-a-thon this New Year’s? :slight_smile:

Zet: I was being nice cuz I assumed you had problems with slow leveling while you played. If it took you 1/2 hr. to get to L5, you wouldn’t have been crying about the week it took when we invited ya. I had to follow Wilson tho cuz he bought me the game when I didn’t plan on playing, well he got everyone into it so I guess we were following the leader, course his other MMO buddies are on there too and have been most helpful to me. I think he wants a big Roch. party but that ain’t happening cuz we’re spread out. I’m cutting down too to get some work done now. Tho another LAN FF meeting would be cool if Wilson and Ira bring their PCs this week.

Oh, the GF just got summoner, I’m jealous cuz Carbuncle is so cute.

No now it takes me a half hour to get to lvl 5…and by the time that Wilson got back to me on that World Pass I already got into a linkshell that was cool because it had a lot of high lvl JPN (mainly WHM). That was the main reason I stayed on shiva the other not so important reason is that your server name is Fairy:-P
Also I figured you guys would be playing a hell of a lot more than I would and I would be pretty much a hassle to power level all the time:P. Oh and I should of mentioned that the 2 hour thing was a joke. It only happened to me once and that was because for some odd reason no one at all was in Qufim.

Oh well…anyhow it seems everyone in Windurst doesnt like to do conquest since we have been 3rd for a month straight and still going strong:P. Thats cool that you got that warp service enabled cuz I heard on the other forum that I frequent more than this one that Fairy was having a lot of problems with the Trees. BTW what did high lvl Japanese players have anything to do with it??? The tree thing capped your lvl at 20.

Steve, are you coming to Clash on Sunday?

In GGXX news, I’m going to Coney Island with Stefen to play some guys that I played over Christmas Break. They’re def the best comp I’ve found around here. It sucks that it’s like a 45 min drive with tolls to play ppl as opposed to a 5 min drive to RIT/Wilson’s/Gary’s/Steve’s when I’m in Rochester. =/ Prepping for the Break tourney on Sunday. I doubt I’ll be able to place since bigger names are supposed to be coming and Dizzy doesn’t stand up too well against all the top tiers. =/ If all the people who say they’re coming do come, that’s going to be at least 3 Fausts. Should be fun, though. :stuck_out_tongue:

Happy new year eve to everybody…

Is getting kind of sad:( in here. PPl don’t let “Lvls” take over friendship, please; New year eve is here,:wink: and “you” know what this mean(Is party time, Getting drunk isn’t optional is mandatory. :wink: )
Lets all push those “problems/differences” aside so we can keep the thread integration, flowing smooth and in a great mood.

Be4 2004 comes I hope(Twisting it up a bit won’t hurt):
Nobody dies of a game overdose(Any other type of death via a overdose should do it), but if it happen I guess is ok. You were going to die anyways (You know Destiny works in weird ways and it doesn’t discriminate). In these case; You just died a little bit earlier than expected. thats all. :smiley:

-Seriously, I hope everybody have a good time tonight… :smiley: :lol: :stuck_out_tongue:

Xerlic: I don’t know if I’m going. If I was going, I would probably be asking to crash at your place for the night (since 10 hours of driving with a game tournament sandwiched in there isn’t the best of ideas).

I could use a favor from you, though. Some guy in Jersey is selling a nice metal DDR pad on the cheap, and I want to buy it. Problem is he’s in Jersey and my route is about 2-3 hours north. If I can’t make it, could you pick it up? Hell, I could PayPal you the money, and I could wait the 1-2 weeks you’re still on break to get it up here (apparently I have some patience). However, if I end up going this all becomes moot. That and Andrew (from EGS) also wants someone to take his Cobalt Flux pad at the Break and drive it up to Rochester (since he’s flying in from NYC) – and it would probably be either me or you.

LMCZITZ: WTF are you talking about? I’m the only one bitching about anything here, and I’m always doing that. Just do what everyone else does and ignore it; it’s the best for all involved.

-Dippy

WTF-- there is not need to said such a thing in a day like this…tomorrow…

Ok, “Mr. Shoryuken.com” (I didn’t know shoryuken.com had new owners) I will do exacly what you ask me to do “today”. I’ll ask you not to banned me from this website, your “majestic”. Forget what I said cuz I didn’t mean no harm to no one (didn’t you notice all my little smilies/faces found all over my msg?).
:frowning:

Hey luis … long time no see

Going to have to hang out over this winter break somehow:P

I think everyone on these boards is just a little to tense and take offense to everything:lame: Course then again I am the same way:lol: :lol:

Happy New Year Eve Everybody!

Now lets get PISSED:D :smiley: :smiley:

No partying for me tonight. I have work on New Year’s day and I’m due in at 9am. My life is hell and I can’t wait till I escape hell! :eek:

By the way, I got Soul Calibur 2. Funny game. The English dubbing is the main reason why I like the game. The dubbing is so bad that it reminds me of Jackie Chan’s Drunken Master! :lol:

Dip: Yeah, lemme know what you need me to do regarding a place to crash or picking up this pad. My room is kinda messy atm, so if you do want a place to crash, we’ll prolly put you up at Stefen’s place instead of mine if that’s cool.

A -=Lmc=- like you never seen it/heard of before…Import from japan… :slight_smile:

Today is a very unique, new day and as we all know pretty much every other day fallow this same pattern. Different days diferent ans for different questions, but Hey!! today is
today and the rest is “history” so let me get this rolling and to the point.

DIPSTICK (This is my gift to you. Sorry, I didn’t give it to you be4). I hope you enjoy it cuz I did enjoy every single sec. I “wasted” making it. Happy New Year!! once again):
Who the hell told you that I was posting my msg as a response based in what you posted?..Acting Like you were the only person who plays and posted msg in relation to FFxi… in this thread.

The way in which you’re expressing (“Emotionalism” isn’t good for your health) your self reflects the type of “person” you are in general. You like to act on reaction(If you don’t like what I posted don’t read it. I won’t get mad. You know what, as a matter
of fact It wouldn’t be that of a bad idea if you do the math.) without even thinking about the consequences that might come alone when you behave this way. I was joking when I said what I said (if anybody else got mad after reading my msg. My apologize to you… I still don’t see why anyone will get
mad since I wasn’t “targeting” anybody. Just been me. Everybody who knows me know what I mean)and wasn’t trying to annoy or make anyone in particualar mad(Where is your sence of humor “human”…New year eve, Dude!!..). Just trying to have a good time by posting something I thought was funny/stupid and directed to all those who agree to read it. Not just Mr.DIPSTICK(…Your name with CAPS as you posted MINE…I know when/why ppl use caps. Trust me it isn’t when they are in a good mood). Is not like you’re that special, after all.

Mr. walking-bomb…Did you just blew up or you still on countdown mode?

“…I won’t care if you said anything bad about Tekken, say what ever you want. Trust me I won’t get mad. Not overs game related stuff…” This is a just in case (Ignore it if it doesn’t apply to you)

—You might be thinking danm; this guys doesn’t like me at all(…“but is not like I like him in the first place anyways” by DIPSTICK-Might.said.) LMC: But no that isn’t the case I am just answering your question in a way similar to the same way in which you reacted towards what I posted; ON REACTION
(A la DJ…ST in 8 *s dfclt)

LMC: takes 110% resposability of his actions. Trust me I won’t hide. I won’t regret my actions. I’ll simply just keep flowing. I hope you do the same.

Don’t hate on faust :(, hate on Buri and Slayer :evil:. Hit me up on aim and I will tell you what to look out for. :slight_smile:

Luis, your first mistake was taking Dippy seriously. No offense, but he’s prolly reading your post and chuckling. Mocking self-pity is Dippy’s style. You should know better than to take his banter at face value. :smiley:

Josh: I hate on Faust because he’s anti-Dizzy. Arcadia ranks him 7-3, and I can give you a list on why he should beat Dizzy clean if the reasons weren’t apparent to you at the finals at the last Break tourney we were both at. I don’t fear Slayer because I get enough practice against a top tier Slayer on a regular basis. Also, I did get a lot of practice on a top tier Bridget till Wilson decided to move on for greener pastures. :frowning:

LMC :

I hate Tekken :stuck_out_tongue:

AMinorThreat : He’s only mad cause I almost beat him at a Egs tourney + i m teh noob. heh.

Xerlic, you are a very funny dude. U bring flashback of a Black guys I knew from work

Xerlic(Undisputably. The new King of Comedy.) why is it that you have to jump in everytime I sumit a msg directed to your best friend Dipstick(You guys planned this… everytime? is this just–> Coincidence or Conspiracy? Please let me know, cuz I am deeply confuse)
I am laughing my ass off as I post this msg. terrence what did I told you…I told you watch how Xerlic, will try to post something in response to what I said in my previous msg directed solemnly
to my very go_od friend Dipstick.

Xerlic–> :stuck_out_tongue: I don’t take nothing serious man(Don’t let what I post fool your eye. It show you don’t know Luis well…Just so u know Don’t say anything like that in front of some one who really know me expecting them to take you seriously. They will laugh like is not even funny. To say that I got mad (Specially, Dippy who in the hell is crazy enough to take that individual seriously. Trust me. Not Luis…) over crap ppl post over the net is something…)

LOL…I can’t belive this… That i got mad over something that Dippy said or that I ever took him seriously…LOL… That is what I call Top-tier sence of humor…Xerlic you too good man… My Respect goes to you…LOL
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
I was going to ask u if you had Black blood running through your vains? You’re a really funny guy man. Keep that great sense of humor flowing. I thought only black people were that funny…No anymore… Will smith, Watch it!!..Serious comp. is arising.

I will post a more compeling paragraph about this funny and entertaining topic, but I have no time… Next time will be.

:lol:

OK, I wasn’t trying to come to Dippy’s defense cuz there really was nothing to defend. I guess you didn’t quite catch the :smiley: at the end of my post. I was just trying to let you know that you shouldn’t take Dipstick’s rant at face value since you seemed to be a bit offended by the comment. If anything, I was trying to help you and not him. I can’t tell if your post is a flame or not since my post wasn’t funny and wasn’t meant to be funny at all, but you seem to think so. Are you being sarcastic? Whatever. I won’t comment on this any further. Ja. :slight_smile:

Hmm…I thought I was the funny guy here. Now I feel bad. :lol:

I remember Tekken. Here is my take on the Tekken games. Tekken 1 I liked a lot, but VF2 was out at the time so I played that more than VF.

Tekken 2 I liked a lot, but I never played it on a super deep level. I always got owned by King’s grabs since I did not know how to escape his grabs nor did anyone in my neighborhood. I wasn’t willing to pay $10 for an faq and neither were most of my people in the neighborhood. Oh yeah, back then I did not know how to use a PC and my family did not make enough income to have a PC.

I liked Tekken 3. For some reason, the pop-up juggles in that game made me not like it as much as Tekken 2 since it didn’t feel right.

I like Tekken Tag even though I don’t know what I’m doing. I guess this implies I own Tekken Tag, which I do. It was only $11 new so it was hard to resist. Of course, after seeing what average play looks like around here, I just say I don’t play Tekken Tag.

I didn’t get Tekken 4 after people telling me it is worthless to play the game unless you use Jin since he owns everyone for free in that game. I played Karate Champ to death back in the mid-80s. To face an identical clone of myself 100% of the time in Tekken 4 is stupid, so Tekken 4 is just an evolution of Karate Champ.

So yeah, I’m just a super casual player when it comes to Tekken games. Last time I played Tekken Tag, I got owned by some random guy thinking I would be able to win at least a round. I think the only other time I got owned that bad in TTT was playing the game on the hardest difficulty level and by the kid at Chucky Cheese about 3 years ago who was using Ganryu & Paul. (hence calling the game Tekken “Chucky Cheese” Tag Tournament):lol:

I recall when someone asked me if I played Tekken 3 and I said yes. I got owned and I got cursed at majorly and well…nasty stuff happened after that. So, after that I interpret the question, “do you play (game)?” as “do you play (game) on a highly competive level?”. So of course, my usual response to this question for the last few years have been a resounding “no”.

That covers my Tekken experiences. I know someone from MCC asked me awhile back what my take was on Tekken so might as well post this stupidly funny post here to try to break up the tension. You may now proceed to laugh at me! :slight_smile:

Cackletta has so much life…

Let me put the closing period to this topic.

…where is my blah blah blah Xerlic? :confused: :lol:…well here it comes…

Are you referring to you when you said–> “Blah blah blah blah I take things so seriously blah blah” or is that suppost to reflect (Ohh!! and when ever I need your help in this type of situation I let you kno, but please wait for me to ask first. Thanks) how you treat/and take my jokes(If this is it then, now I know how I should be treating your incoming comments…) …Seens I have already explained to you how I feel about such type commets like yours(no offence, but they are full of hot air since they have no Factual Evidence to back them up… This is how I Perseve these comments: Emotions vs Factual Evidence) Do like Grifter and don’t take the crap ppl post over the net seriously. Ask, The Slayer Master about that. He definitely knows what I am talking about.

Case close. :smiley:
