Fort Wayne, IN - someone please post something for crying out loud

Hey guys. I’m sorry about staying out of the loop for so long, but I thought I would offer my house next weekend if you guys want to play. I could drag a second tv to the basement and we can play whatever if someone wants to bring a second console.

Gary - alright! Very nice purchase! :tup:

Spencer - I just watched the Chariot Card vid again myself. For some reason it’s not quite how I remembered it but it has been awhile since I seen it. It seemed to me that the entire video was more like what the preview video showed… [media=youtube]Xsn3D2g64HU[/media]. I still love what he did with the Justin vs. Daigo thing using SFA3 in his preview video. :tup:

Anyway it’s still got some neat effects and cool combos. I think while it’s on my mind I will go and watch the Evo Ryu combo video since I’m still out of the loop on that.

Dan - hey it’s all good, the movie wasn’t much to brag about in my mind but then again I wasn’t expecting much going in. The only stuff you missed was some good eats and some good SF4 practice. If you want to host next week, keep us in the loop. We will be very appreciative if that happens, we need any venue to play that we can find.

Also, Dan, just curious what your plans are for the Indy tournament. Just making sure if you are still planning to come or if your plans have changed any. I am still trying to get a better picture of what our driving situation is and we may end up needing two vehicles to fit us all down there. Just let me know if you can’t drive or if you plan on driving or whatever. Again I’m just fitting the pieces of the puzzle together because I have some folks that are in contact with me only on Xbox Live and they are curious what our plans are.

$500 pot bonus for sf4, you have no excuse to miss this :stuck_out_tongue:
Oh and there will be HDr.

Tekken Tag Tournament - 70/20/10

Somebody Inform Milan.

Yeah seriously…this will probably be the last tournament you’ll ever see with TTT as an official tourney…he better get his ass over there…hell I’ll drive him if I have to.

That’s about four plus hours from my house but I’ve traveled farther for tournies in the past.

looking at Dave and Timmy all suspicious-like … :wonder: … you street fighters headed to that event possibly? hmmmm? :rofl:

Anyone making any plans for gaming this weekend?

Also question for Gary, FJ, and Dan… you boys coming to the Indy tournament? Any chance any of you can drive a vehicle there to help with carpooling? I’d hate to see people get left out of coming just because things didn’t get planned out ahead of time.

^^^^^^^^^^ replied back telling him to post his address, and start time. Dan’s gracious enough to open his home for us, let us not be ungrateful to his kindness and show up ready to play some games tomorrow!

Everyone is welcome to come game at my house tomorrow night. PM me if you want to come over. I think we’re going to game at 8. Also, if at all possible can someone bring a tv/monitor and another ps3? Also, I was planning on picking up some snacks, but thought if everyone wanted to chip in a few bucks we could get some pizza.

Also, I have SSFIIHDR, Blazblue, SFIV and one stick. If anyone would like to bring anything else let me know.

I will bring a stick… and some pizza $$$ :smile:

Normally I wouldn’t, but I consider this a special occasion, so I’ll bring my Tv in addition to my PS3 Just for you Dan. And my stick of course.

Gary you better bring your stick also!

Thanks Spencer. As soon as I can I plan on trying to find something else so we have two TVs for gaming, and when the wife is gone we can more than likely use the other flat panel in the house, but she’ll be home tonight and probably wanting to watch a movie or something on it.

I’m happy you can both make it. If you know of anyone else who wants to come out they are also welcome, just let me know how many people we are going to have total.

Unfortunately I won’t be able to make it out tonight fellas, but of course thanks for offer Dan. Hopefully we will meet soon.

Dan - thanks for hosting us last night. Thanks to Christina for the cookies, chocolate chip are my favorites anyway so that really hit the spot. :smile: I see you are learning some real good Balrog stuff on ST. Actually I think Gary was a better teacher last night that I was. Either way you are on the right track. :tup:

Josh - glad you made it out. Thanks for putting up with Marvel and with our goofy little SF4 zaniness (easy raging demons, one hit Seth stuns, etc.) and you got in some Tekken matches with a 3rd member of our crew. Now you’ve played Milan, me, and Gary. Hopefully the SF4 matches went ok with you (I was kind of focused over on the HDR) and it looks like you have changed/improved on the BB gameplan so nice work there.

Ok here is some bad news. After talking with the gang at IHOP last night here is our current ride situation. Our friend Ryan is driving his vehicle and has offered rides to Spencer, Gary, myself, and another guy who he will be teaming with for a Smash Bros. doubles tournament. No gentle way around it, that leaves you guys (Dan and Josh) out of the picture.

Dan - just let us know when you find out this week if you can still come or not. If you can come you might have to drive. Spencer is still thinking about driving although obviously he’d prefer to just ride down with his best friend Ryan.

Josh - same thing, just keep my informed on what the parents say. Hopefully they’re ok with it and we’ll try to find you a ride for the weekend.

Gary - any chance you can drive? This would also be a way to solve our transportation needs.

Maybe…:lol:

Well if you and Dave are thinking of attending then I might be persuaded to go. Sadly the thread title says it’s in St. Louis, MO and the first post says it’s in Collinsville, IL. Judging from the reaction I get in the thread it must be in Collinsville, IL. If I were to come I’d hope to work out some sort of plan with you guys to hook up and then catch a ride the rest of the way to the event.

Random Post, Apperently for not liking BB, Justin Wong just got 2nd @ GameUnicron for it. Unknown who he played, but I’d guess Ragna.

Hey guys!
First, to address the overdue thanks I owe you guys.
Thanks for keeping me up to date with the info on the party (as well as general info) Brent.
Dan, thank you for hosting and da cookiez! They were delicious.
Everyone, thanks for the time, memories, and matches.

Now addressing my ability to come to Indy. (I town)
I just got a yes from my mom but shes going to check up with dad to see if its okay with him.
In other words we should all know here by tonight. Ill keep you all updated.
