Even Tornado's can't stop the HYPE of FRXI. FRXI results

[JeRon]

Big thanks and props to Larry and everyone of his staff for making Final Round 11 the best one I’ve been to in my third year attending.
I love Final Round so much because it started out as a small community gathering that expanded into one of the largest community tournaments that keeps expanding every year. It reaches out to the players with little to no politics involved. Thanks for keeping FR alive Larry!

I was very hyped up for this tournament and everything was on the table.
Zhuge Liang (Kong Ming) one of the greatest advisors in the world in ancient china in the Han Dynasty and my life Idol once said: “Those who are skilled in combat do not become angered, those who are skilled at winning do not become afraid. Thus the wise win before they fight, while the ignorant fight to win”

Sorry for the philosopical post but I’ve been aspired by one of my closest friends in the recent months.
Thankyou Syn!

Thanks to everyone that made this event one of the most memorable ever. Catch you all on the rebound!

First off, thank you to EVERYONE who helped replace my ticket. Ronin for asking for the hat to be passed. Larry for throwing an even better party than last year. Mixup for being such a chill guy. Shiki, for the room and the SNK tourneys. Neo, you know what you did for me. Sazae and JohnnyQuest, for letting me play ST in y’alls rooms with you. and EVERYONE who attended and made it worth the trip. PAD GIEF FOR THE WIN. Also, it weas truly great meeting Deathscythe and XShiRoiKyox and anyone else I’ve been down with on kaillera for years.

What’s good peoples this is Jaxx, I helped run the Brawl tourney this year for FRXI, I look forward to doing it again next year. I got some shoutouts to give up

Larry & the crew- Good shit for final round peoples, I will be there next year to help out for brawl, and I appereciate you letting me help with that. I got mad respect for someone who can trust a complete stranger with helping run a tourney. Also good shit for getting us up on the big screen, even after midnight(my bad), I’ll be in contact.

Thanks for helping out with smash sir!:wgrin: We will talk about FRXII when I get the venue secured.

Final Round was Serious…Period!

Thanks for coming out and helping out yo. You know your fam and it’s always good to see you yo. We got to talk about the FUTURE!!!:wgrin:

YO shit was hype as muthafucka yo!!! for my first FR … and defintely did not dissapoint…wish arcana was up on the big screen but it’s all good… im glad larry was saying good things about it… so i can’t complain…!!!

also thanks Larry for having this…and shit i like ya hype yourself up… maybe i should try that too!! shit is godlike sir!!!

Larry- once again… my first FR… AND WAS HOT AS A MUTHAFUCKA… TORNADOS? fuck outta here… nothing was going to stop FR that weekend sir… shit is godlike… and A2 bison is something firece… im glad that showed some intrest in AH… much appreciated…

if i miss some peeps… i still got love for ya’lll and i been blessed to finally come out and go to these tourneys… so you best believe ill be at dat FR XII hyping the shit up!!!

Sup yo. It was good to meet you son. I’ll see you at FRXII.

I’m at work and it’ll take awhile to compile those shoutouts, but for now, GS to everyone we chilled with. Thanks No.1 goes to Larry and the ATL community for putting on the year’s nicest tourney, and dealing w/ all problems big and small with the coolest attitude . Worth all 12 hours of drive time and then some. Already looking forward to FRXII!!

Good to see you sir.

That was my first major tournament ever, and there’s not a lot more I could have asked for. Thanks, Larry, for holding such an amazing tournament! I had more fun there than I could have ever imagined. I will definitely be back next year!

Now tell those fools that didn’t come to frxi how much they missed out on all of the great games being had at FRXI. Tell them they better not miss FRXII.

I guess I’ll do my shoutouts now…

I neeeeeeeeeeeeever do shoutouts, so you know FRXI was special…

Larry- Obviously, much respect for all you do with FR. I’m mad you called me for A2 during CvS2 finals. I go play Jeron, come back, and Steve’s already down 0-2. Fuck. Oh well.

So I guess that’s it.

Until next time folks.

Sorry but the games must be played sir. Good to meet you and I threw a monkeywrench in your statement about the ATL not placing in anything campcom.:rolleyes: You guy’s (Md/Va) are too tough in every game, and you stole one of the ATL’s beast (Epsilon_) I’m just glad I put up a good fight.
P.S.- Good shit to epsilon_ for putting me out in ST. I didn’t see that coming, but you got mad good since going to Va. Trainning with all those beast has gotten you better.

Hey yo, its me, its me, its RDG (RUSH DOWN GOD) VDO here, just wanted to give my personal shoutouts and respect to…

First off Larry “ShinBlanka” This was by far the greatest Fr I have been to! This makes # 3 and 3rd times a charm!
O.k I’m tired of typin so thats part 1 of my shoutouts, we’ll be right back after these messages!

VDO

Always good to see you playa! We got to run that A2 match up again yo! I know you want some payback. See ya next year I hope.

Here goes my shoutouts:

First of all, thanks Larry aka Shinblanka, for letting me run the SNK side of things. I mean you gave me free reign to run it and all of the responsibillity to do it. I will do it again next year and I will not let you down. I want to match you in 98 when the ps2 version comes out so get my number and we can do it.

Next, Kyah aka bobsmack, for the shirt (I will keep this forever, “FRXI STAFF”) and treating me like one of yall. I greatly appreciate it. There will probably be a part 2 to this, so if you did not get mentioned, you will probably later.

Good job Jdash in running the snk games. Everyone makes mistakes and you can only grow from them. I think you did a great job for your 1st time at a major. You know it’s going to be even bigger next year! Get ready for it son.

[p0tent_shell]

This was my first tourney n aside from catchin the flu, this shit was dope as fuck. We met a lotta cool peeps n had a blast playin/ chillin with everyone. I’m pretty sure we’ll be back to the next one…lookin forward to it.

[_Above_Omnipotence]

(evil laughs)

I, The Deity, didn’t allow the tornado to hit FRXI…so that you flesh creatures could enjoy the tournament.

(physical form)

As usual, FRXI was the shit, met even more great peeps. Had a blast playing Keits and his crew in World Heroes Perfect, he ran the hell outta me with J. Carn. LOL

Whoever that guy name was I was playing SNK vs. CAPCOM: Chaos with was fun as usual. We need to get more peeps on that game so that I may destroy ALL with my herald, Tessa/Tabasa.

And nobody wanted to armwrestle for money, darn. (evil laughs)

In all in all, Larry is THE man. Thanks again for another great event of FR. Though, I will stress this for the next FR…PLEASE have a Super Puzzle Fighter tournament in your next upcomnig tournament line-up.

[The_Epidemic]

^where was u?? i woulda took that armwrestling bet

and lol @ u didnt allow the tornado to hit FR

[ramza]

good shit in a2, larry i knew that bison was gonna wreck shop…i see you set it up only AFTER i left hmmmmmmmm:wink:, i guess we’ll have that a2 MM next time…

[xero15]

man larry shit was off the charts. glad i came to it again ill definitely be there next year but we have to get in on more alpha 3 sometime before then. i want my rematch.

[System_1]

Whoo, Soul Calibur results, haha. I didn’t really play Soul Calibur 3, only SC2, before Final Round, but the day after FRXI, I went out and bought SC3 and I’ve been playing ever since.

Next year, I’m coming back and taking #1, baby!

Or at least #4, damn.

[_Above_Omnipotence]

^where was u?? i woulda took that armwrestling bet

and lol @ u didnt allow the tornado to hit FR

(physical form)

LOL Are you absolutely sure you would’ve taken that bet? I was in the form of an stocky old black guy with glasses and a white du-rag. Well, you got 'til next year OR Evo to prepare yourself…human! (evil laughs)

[The_Epidemic]

lol…yea…i woulda took that bet.
Im in pretty good shape.
yea…keep that arm ready for next yr…better hit that hyperbolic time chamber tho…or u might lose:wink:

[ShinBlanka]

good shit in a2, larry i knew that bison was gonna wreck shop…i see you set it up only AFTER i left hmmmmmmmm:wink:, i guess we’ll have that a2 MM next time…

You know i’ll be on ggpo son. To bad a3 killed a2 scene on ggpo.:sad::sad::shake::mad:

[Return_of_Shiki]

Who has the SNK brackets?

I think I gave SamSho Tenka brackets to Larry and the Real Bout 2 brackets to JDash…

[ShinBlanka]

Who has the SNK brackets?

I think I gave SamSho Tenka brackets to Larry and the Real Bout 2 brackets to JDash…

Looking for them sir.

[JDash247]

I gave them every SNK bracket I had. KOF98, NGBC, RB2, and SST I gave back to them and they gave the pay out. Oh well, I see if I can give the rankings off the top of my head.

[BobSmack]

Larry you have them, I think they’re in that big Wega box
