…
Sorry, I’m running one no sleep right now, I’ve been up for 20 something hours.
GGs to everyone I played, good seeing all my illinois and nebraska peeps again. Shout outs are due for Roberto Shaady Simon Apples VDO Floe The Branton Frankie Humbag Murphagator and Bob Washington for some hella good and many VERY close matches. Sorry about your luck at the end of our 3s set shaady, it shouldnt have gone down like that. Also very nice showing in TVC Floe, you really knew how to keep the pressure on with those instant air dashes after push blocks. To the tourney organizers thanks for having a great event, it was hella fun and well organized/ran for the number of games played.
Finally, Detroit didnt steal anyones shit, just cause we black dont mean we robbing everyone blind.
I may be getting places wrong, and if so, I’m sorry. All I’m going on is the last people I saw near it were VDO and John C., although they’re clear because VDO talked to Frankie about it, and said it wasn’t them.
I’m not blaming anyone in particular, just saying it sucks.
Besides, you’re white 
Good shit aaron and paul rep the MO
Actually, AKA got 2nd and Dfly took 3rd in Remix.
Good shit to all the placers shouts later

First off: I’m no Scrub… Some Jagoff broke my stick for 360, and both my match’s i used sticks that had non-working down diagonals (rendering my bison game useless and i couldn’t block low).
Second: I was doing exceptionally great on the ps3 arcade setup shinjigohan brought (better working sticks means better game) ask anyone who was there, cus i ran through that line at least twice (ask anyone about that pink bison).
Third: where do you get off calling me a scrub when you didn’t even show??? lol
THAT WAS YOU??? you gave me some serious problems with that vega… lol
Good to see Frankie not chickening out on more money matches. Anyone tape any of the marvel matches?
Thank you very much to everyone who came out to this event!
I espesially want to thank everyone who ran tournaments (Andy, Tony D, Humbag, Keits, Marc, etc). You guys made this event really really exciting and we had a lot of great tournaments come out of it.
Also thanks to everyone who brought equipment. Thanks to you guys we had something like 25 TVs going with tons of different games being played for over 12 hours straight
Big thanks to Sigmae for bringing his BlazBlue setup. I was so busy running stuff I didnt have time to play it but I hope lots of other people had fun with it.
it was great chillin with all the old midwest players and seeing some new people out here and thanks to the guys who came from very far away
some quick shout outs
Cue and Simon: im glad you guys showed up cuz we got some great games in and you guys hooked it up with that B. Real good shit on getting 2nd in GG David. You had me worried in the finals. I had to work fucking hard for that shit.
STL/MO crew: awsome seeing you guys as ussual. Thanks for helping me bring all those TVs to the venue. It was cool chilling with you all weekend. Aaron, good shit on 3rd in GG and 2nd in HDR. Your Eddie is beastly but I still think your Millia is where its at.
Stark/Talore: Thanks for coming all the way from Washington. Sorry I didnt get to play you guys more but I hope you had a good time
Jason/Keits crew: thank you guys for coming out and bringing TvC, everyone seemed to enjoy playing it a lot. Sucks we couldnt drink together Jason. Maybe next time in Tokyo. BTW your commentary on some of those GG matches was priceless. Cant wait to watch the vids LOL!
Josh: Good shit with your ABA and thanks for coming out
Travis: thanks for letting us play in your room on Friday night. Good games as always
Chicago crew: thanks for coming out in full force and for supporting this event so much and making it so big. Good to see all you guys again. Prucha and Sean, good shit in teams, I didnt even need to play one game in the finals thanks to you guys!
Everyone else: thanks for coming out and making this even big.

Since this event was such a success, I will be organizing it again around the same time next year. I hope to see you all out there again
3rd in 3S, Murphy? Good stuff, man! Who did the top 4 or so use?
Looking forward to watching some TvC vids.
copy and paste…guess I posted in wrong thread
Bozac…this was a godlike tournament. so fun
detroit coming out made it even more godlike
good shit THE BRANTEN on taking those money matchs…lesson learned: pick MSP if I’m fucking up like that. 'till next time
also great games to flapp and vdo.
flapp: your rogue/tron…UGH, I just don’t know what to do against them sometimes, good shit for raping me with them
vdo: that last mm was close, but good shit otherwise, 'till next time
chi crew: you already know, good shit…I need more leveling up…to get that MID execution consistent like I can do regularly in casuals at my place (and at screenz the one time I played there). any of you going to FR?
Geronimo: Everything looks about right. I beat flapp that first set in the tourney. Branten won the first MM and the runback…MSPizzle next time against him! lol
SGT_TOASTY: mostly all marvel vids were recorded by detroit/flapp/omegared999 so we would just be waiting on him
(if it matters)
a few shoutouts:
bozac - amazing job with everything. congrats on gg. the whole tourney was a ton of fun.
meta - congrats on your tourney wins. 
tons of props and good stuff in the finals. our 50/50 match up was in your favor. =P … maybe i’ll change that to 60/40 in your favor tho.
orka - good stuff w/ maori. you seemed much more comfortable w/ her, but did well w/ fiona too. nice hanging out as always.
big thanks to all the arcana ppl (random, nappy, necrosis, pt2, …). the more you guys play the better you get. i see improvement each time i see you guys.
722 - long time no see. nice chatting w/ you. and we’ll talk more in the near future. =D its always fun watching your bridget (when you were playing her in casuals).
aaron, klaige, david, simon, eric, snake, sean, fiestamint, dennis, jerry, jason… … good seeing all the gg ppl there. lots of intense matches, strange commentary, and good times overall. too many names to mention. =P
devildigimon - nice hanging out again. good stuff in fate, on pad and everything.
pbj - good stuff w/ rin. ill practice some and see if i can xcopy some of those combos.
chrono saber - good seeing you again and nice job in tourney. unlimited blade works is hype.
good stuff to all the other chi guys there. helped make yesterday so enjoyable.
Thanks for posting the results. Not sure if the bottom half is entirely correct, but I left the bracket (VDO won a match, but then again, it was double elimination)
Big-BIG thanks to my fellow Midwest homies from Detroit for making the trip- VDO, Flapp, Branten, and the rest!
I apologize to all for starting 3 hrs late (lol), but I did have to take care of sudden urgent/important business.
Other shoutouts
- thanks to Mike “Bozac” for organizing the whole tourney and picking me up that sick TvC shirt.
- tony k., GLB, Geronimo, Beatsofdevil - good shit leveling up after Ohio. you guys (tko, glb) did the smart thing picking MSP. MvC2: New Age of MSP.
- LOL at Floe winning TvC and barely touching it (hit me up teacher) - a true genius.
- everyone else! good seeing you and thanks for playing!
Wow, I didn’t expect those 3s results. Any matches taped?
From what I remember…
- Grego = Chun Li, Yun and Oro
- Me/Shaaady = Hugo, Ryu, Makoto, Alex, Elena, Necro
- Murphagator = Oro, Q
- Cameron/True Karate = Yun, Alex, Ibuk, Ken (I think) and maybe Dudley.
- Simon Yoo = Ken
- D-fly = Ken, Chun Li, Sean
Props time
ElvenShadow - What a great tourney on limited resource. You were in control the entire time, and making sure everything went smooth and people were having a good time. I’ve never been to a tourney of this scale where all games finished ahead of time. I guess your tourney organizing skill went up the chart alongside your Faust while playing in Japanese arcades, huh.
Capps Indigo - As very few people may realize, I know that the tourney wouldn’t have turned out as well if you didn’t organize it in the back-end. Much appreciated!! GG in Arcana. I seriously thought I had chance against you with Fiona, but I forgot the fact that you were in tourney mode… I got owned. As for FUC, I guess we’ll see what happens with that game in the upcoming weeks.
meta - Victory for meta = Victory for Team Wheelchair. FUC was that freeeee!?
**722 **- It was great seeing you again!! Sorry that I don’t really play GG anymore. I should pick it up again, really. Hope to see you in future tourneys.
Super FX - Good job in the GG tourney. Maybe abandoning your long-time main was for the best. Beastly May. :rock:
AKA - Penis of Death. Great job in GG and STHD.
Nebraska - I don’t think I talked to any of you this time around, but it was great to see you guys around. Beasts in all games, as usual.
NappyJin - GG in Arcana casuals. It’s always cool to play against you because you bring out the fresh combos and set-ups in what is now a somewhat stale game. I was hoping to face you in semi, but maybe next time (if there will be another AH tourney that is).
Webster - I knew it!! Denny’s charged for 2 Sprites!!! I hope you enjoyed the burger lol (and the refill). I hate Keanu Reeves. More impressive than your performances was your mic display during GG finals, and most impressive was that you restrained from breaking a controller the entire weekend. High five!
pbj_mixxa - Good seeing you again and GG in AH and FUC. Dunno if I will go to FR… but I definitely want to go to the Arcade UFO tourney in April. Then we can play S!AH2, FUC, BlazBlue, MBAA, etc. All the good stuff.
PaRt2 - I don’t think there is much to be said, lol… but good hanging out as usual. Where are my CD’s???
SHAAAADY - I was rooting for you so hard. But impressive nonetheless that you almost took the entire tourney using Necro/Hugo/Elena.
Necrosis - I underestimated your Konoha, and I almost paid a heavy price for it. GG. Archer is da man.
Random123456789 - GG in AH. I hate playing against Kamui, but the favor some how went in my way this time. I saw you tearing things up in TvC.
chrono sabre - You looked solid in GG, despite claiming you haven’t played forever. Unlimited Blade Works combos are too awesome.
j1n - I will counter your Fat Jet Li one day with Super Fat Chow Yun Fat (no puns). The training starts now.
Keits - I’m looking forward to the TvC vids. I’ve started looking for Wii on ebay, just so I can play that game. And thanks for letting me play a couple of games.
Neil - It was great to see BlazBlue at the event. I didn’t get to play it, but I figured you deserve a mention for the generosity.
Nives - Jerry, I know you were behind your GG team name. You just wanted to make Nappy the culprit.
Humbag - BEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeerRRRRRRRRRRrrrr.
Flexo - Long time, no see. Even if you don’t really play competitively anymore, it’s good to see that you’re not completely out of the picture. GJ for supporting the scene!
To many others that deserves a mention or two: Thanks for making the weekend such a blast!! I had a lot of fun.

Whoever that stole S-RX laptop **- You know who you are. Shame. :nono: <— (been wanting to use this new icon)
Had a great time running both 3s and remix.
Both were very intense with close matches.
Floe’s boxer is mean.
AKA’s Cammy is business.
ggs to all. Thought I had beaten aka but he adapted very well to my blanka and came back from a 2-0 deficit- good shit, he deserved to win. I am in complete agreement with keits however when he said there was some lag on that tvs I did miss a few reversals that might have made a difference. Oh well, good tournament anyway, a lot of fun.
