Georgia fighting game scene "Growing our scene is the key "

:slight_smile:
Not spamming…Just informing.

work takes up all my time these days but i try to come out to gatech a few times, i get to battle and brew late and do casuals if possible but cant tourney. ive heard nothing bout the latest atl FRBats and i just learned of it this sunday. Me and bunch of us are atl locals who stick to online whoring tho we may pop up at once a season and run through folks…or get rude awakenings. I want to try to get ourselves out to more of the various gatherings and step it up and just have fun

some of yall prolly met me lol. but alas inconsistent attendance.

Da fuck is facebook thread!!!

What would it take to get you and the others to get out and attend more gatherings?

You should definitely try to make it out to something, I’ve met a lot of good friends through this community, and believe me… competition is gonna be a lot more fierce than it is online. As I’m sure you know most games play completely diff online as well. Unless you are working like 60 hour work weeks you should try to make it out to stuff cuz. I worked 45 hours last week but still made it out to FRB (on a day I worked even)

A place where people bitch about anything and everything, random posts clutter up actual fighting game discussion, etc. I’ve been a part of us since it started and its just steadily gone downhill

Where are you located??

Do you drive??

Does anyone in your crew drive??

Are you willing to Travel??

What games do you CURRENTLY play??

You say you play online, which systems??
We have online endless battles in certain games about twice per week, also online tournaments in some games also

What is your schedule/availability??
Does it vary week to week or is it the same??

Are you familiar at all with the tournament scene here in ga??

Are you familiar at all with tournament rules across the U.S.??

You really want to go there bro…really??

???
Is it wrong to remind people of a weekly gathering on a weekly basis?

please excuse any ignorance on my part. but check my resume nigga.

add some poon to the equation or them fools need to get cars or money or somethin. they occasionaly hit marta and i’ll scoop em up. . Half of us can still get up to hit the club scene though. imagine that -_-. The one person in the crew I really wish played in tourneys is a 360 pad warrior. He kinda bodied folks in FR casuals but that limitation to 360 pad really makes him say fuck it. hell i went and bought a stick for ps3 just to play at FR (my first tourney). he didn’t hear much about good converters for 360 controller so he said forget it.

Ben, joel, and some others. all cool peoples. I met some GA cats at FR who played Vampire Savior still lol. I fell in love wit it. Get me in the group so i know wtf is goin on lol. I think I should be able to hit up GA tech tomar night. been a minute (after graduating i aint tryin to go back there)

So ive been waiting for a xbox friend request to get in on this and still no response -__-

YES!!!

I don’t want to see YOU or any other organizer or business or whatever posting more then our own community, that shit is tiresum to see more links for tournaments and tournament locations and play here play there PLEASE COME HERE PLEASESSSSSSEEEEEE
Im like NIGGA NO GOWD DAMN IT!!!

Showtime you have not sent Lordiceman826 a friends request on 360 because I would have accepted it by bow young sir

Great reply bro that shit had me laughing literaly lol

Well if you are on KoF I am having a gathering this saturday for a ranking/ranbats stylye of thing if you are interested, PM me and I can drop you my cell and we can go from there.

First off… we have never beg for anyone to come. Attend if you like, don’t attend if you don’t. We just inform to those who care and those that may not know.

Second… If I am understanding correctly…by providing a place to play casuals, GX and other people/places are hurting the cause?
By hosting tournaments, GX and other people/places are hurting the cause?
By mention a weekly gathering at GX for the fighting community to the fighting community we are hurting the cause?

Possibility of moving the kof ran bats to Sunday, Icebro?

Man don’t nobody want to see that shit every single day, every other day like NOBODY POSTS HERE yet you posting more then anyone else…and you posting that same shit over and over again, it’s fucking annoying man, the shit is practically spam, the fact that NO ONE really posts here…the original post you made LAST WEEK is still with 5-8-10 posts from the most recent so why would we need you to post EVERY SINGLE TIME you log in, the same ole gathering, the same ole spot, we know about the spot, the spot isn’t as convenient for the majority of our community, people know about it Shadow Ace and others have spread the word, I am the ONLY person who has ever posted anything negative about the location and that has been a long while ago, either way WE KNOW WE KNOW
WE FUCKING KNOW ALREADY SERIOUSLY!!!

Where the fuck are the mods on SRK do any of you all do shit anymore??

@ ChnChilla no sir we are still good to go for saturday man

The reason why it may look like spam is because, like you said, no one is posting here. Don’t get angry at me because the activity is down. I just post to remind people. I had someone on fb ask me the other day if Rampage Wednesday was a weekly thing. They didn’t know it was they thought it was a one time event/tournament…but the key is they were prompted to ask me because they seen me post it every week. Now that they know they plan on attending and bringing others soon. Sorry it is irritating you and it seems like spam. I’m not in no way trying to spam…

GX is as convenient as any other place anyone gathers. The simple fact is that people will travel out of state before they travel 30-45mins in there own state. We had more people travel 1 1/2 - 2hours to participate in one of our recent tournaments than people that just had to travel 20mins. This Rampage Wednesday we had a new guy travel over an hour from a city that I never heard of to play.

Yes, and we shown our appreciation to each and everyone that did. With that being said, that doesn’t mean we are just going to sit back. GX is doing its part in supporting the community. If the community wishes to ignore this side of town, that is fine, but know we will continue to push to build the community over here. There are numbers of people that live in this area that don’t know anything about Final Round, SRK, GAFGC, FRB, ATL revival, etc…and we informed them of such. We direct them to the website, facebooks, and upcoming tournaments.

Still don’t understand that… If I remember correctly, you are continue to judge us by the 1-2 times you came here 5-6 years ago. When we just open, when we hosted our first ever fighting tournament, when we had a few people help us put it together that was more involved in the fighting community and they disappeared 2 days before the event and I had to wing it on my own. Either way its cool, no hard feelings here.

GX, do your thing. No one is telling you not to. All Iceman is saying is that it’s prob not necessary to quote yourself and repost every Wednesday. There is not enough activity to warrant that. I guarantee when new people come to this thread they probably read a few pages back. Just reel it back a little bit

Ooooh…
Why didn’t he just say that in the first place, I was confused by all the CAPS and !!!, LOL.

Done and done :slight_smile:
disappears into the night for a while

I understand but facebook has divided our community more than ever imo. I wish more people would post on srk again, but I doubt that happen again. Anyways I agree with your long post tray. People aren’t hngry enough. Maybe i shouldn’t had a bi weekly event. Maybe a monthly is better for our state. I’m going to take a month break from throwing FRbats and i’ll rethink if I will start them back up in august or september.

how’d the KOF Ranbats go?

we had 13 people out. Pretty good for a none snk state.

Before I write this I just wanna say is that this is Just My Opinion on the whole ATL-FinalRoundBats thing and how it sunk before it sail.

Where do I begin…Oh yea I’ll start with this. I believe ShinBlanka was in a way working backwards instead of forward when it came to ranbats,there should of been small steps made toward this ranbats. I’m not saying it is his fault, I’m saying he wasted his money and time. This ain’t Socal, Norcal ,NY or NJ…This is GEORGIA,we don’t have all the big name people those areas have that can bring in the masses.Beside NO one is going to pay $20 just so they can get 0-4 in a tournament and be salty for the rest of the day.We need to start something small, like a Casual setup at a place where everyone have access to.In that way people from all over Georgia can come to this one place where you can level up,learn the MU and etc.We had this Ranking Battles thrown at us and first we were happy we this saying “how this is gonna make Georgia a stronger community”,but in the end it hasn’t changed anything for us.Sadly the GAFGC isn’t ready for something like this and we need to take baby step we can’t handle this.
