theyā€™ll probably post it up themselves, but this is us.

Its official like a referee with a whistle.

How do I sticky it?

Only a moderator can make threads sticky. I think before it can be made sticky or official, we should work on a solid time and location. Follow the example of the tournament threads. People need to see clearly defined rules, and a set time and venue for the event. There also needs to be some kind of backing with a reputable organizer. Or at least a guarantee that it will happen.

I think a lot of ground needs to be made before this becomes official. Why donā€™t we start by introducing each other properly?

We appreciate your eagerness to start a tourney, and to go out and challenge other players takes guts, but it wouldā€™ve been nice if you had first introduced yourself, or if we had known who you guys were first.

Participating in an out of state tourney and meeting other players would have been a good first step. As it is, many players donā€™t know who you guys are and the whole thing seems kind of random. You need to give out of state players more incentive to visit.

Iā€™ll start I suppose. My nameā€™s Michael, Iā€™m currently in college in Atlanta, and Iā€™ve been playing GGXX since '02. My main character is Ky. Right now the ATL GGXX players meet semi-regularly on Fridays and Saturdays. We also are always eager to meet other players and go to as many tournaments as possible.

We would be happy to travel and play you guys, but I think it would help to know more about Birminghamā€™s XX/#R scene in general. Iā€™ve talked to Doren2k online before, and we also used to play with Colin ā€œhalcyonryuā€ a lot while he was still active.

Edit: I re-read my own post, I hope I didnā€™t sound mean, but I think thereā€™s still a lot of work to be done here.

Sorry about the eagerness.

Nameā€™s Ben and Iā€™m from the Bā€™ham as u may know.
Iā€™m 16 and I have been playing GGXX for a good year and a half. Iā€™ve been playing MvC2 for a year and CvS2 for 6 months(but due to superiority to the N-groove, I think that I can beat some people)

I used to go to a school where fighting games were a main issue around the campus. C-notes and gambling were the ideas but not mine. My old school still has fire to them but only through GGXX, SSBM, and SC2.

I am an all-around Chipp and Sol player but donā€™t ask me about FRC timing cause mineā€™s is WAY OFF THE BEAT! I was 2nd in my class before I left. My homeboy created a underground society for GGXX EXPERT FIGHTERSā€¦The Best in the City: Da Gear Headbussas. We were know only to our corners of the hood but we never had a reputation in the city.

We disbanded in 04 because our leader moved to Maine and our co-leader got into some gang activity and said he couldnā€™t play anymore. With me as the acting leader my final order was to disband the nine member team.

I still talk to them but I disagree that they will step out of the underground and trust meā€¦it wasnā€™t easy and the reason why I havenā€™t been to any tournaments was the fact that I came to these forums to take part in fr8(and i STILL DIDNā€™T GO!!!)

But Iā€™m glad I came here. I apologize for my eagerness once again.

Hmmm, I didnā€™t exactly mean it that way, eagerness can be a good thing.

Itā€™s refreshing to see new players on the scene, especially ones with spirit and enthusiam as yourselves. I think you guys are on the right track, and the idea of a team challenge was made with the right intentions.

All Iā€™m saying is, if you want this to happen, and encourage out of state players to participate, there needs to be more of a solid base.

Some suggestions for things you can do: (1) Go back to the first page, and clearly type out what the exact location and time is, clearly outline all the rules and games that are being played. (2) Start a pre-registry list in the first post. This will let people see whoā€™s coming and encourage them to come themselves.

You can start by adding Team ATL to the pre-reg list:

Charles Hinton ā€œPimpjuiceā€ Atlanta, GA
Michael Young ā€œkombatfreakā€ Atlanta, GA
Yusuf Joseph ā€œMBurningStarā€ Atlanta, GA
Raul E. Arredondo ā€œTotenKreuz480ā€ Atlanta, GA

Good luck.

I thought of myself as only a fill in spotter for other teams since im technically not on any team reallyā€¦so im up for grabs unless you guys think otherwise :confused: ā€¦i just dont want to say im on this or that team and then get for real burnedā€¦(i get enough of that shit at school as it is from the bosnias harassing me and what notā€¦ramblings) but anywayā€¦i just want to play really but like i said thats if i can make it but since its in alabama it shouldnt be too much of a problem me thinks (mike what are your thoughts?)

post=Iā€™ll rep ATL FOR SUREā€¦but if KDX really needs an extra man then i am willing to fill in there unless he has a replacementā€¦i dont want to see buddy be down a man that would be :lame:

BTW: For everyone i go by my full name=Raul Estavan Arredondo so just type it out Raul E. Arredondo i know the last name is a killer so just heads up for the sign up thing

FEARSOME FIVE[ Dunno why I still count Jason ]

Ohā€¦what are we doing? Introducing each other. Alright, short and sweet.

Nameā€™s Yusuf[U-SUFF] I work so I donā€™t play everyone that much, but I play Anji. And yesā€¦I do suck at #Reload. Whatever anyone told you at FR8 about me was just a concotion of their imaginations. :badboy: But Iā€™ve been playing Guilty Gear since it first came outā€¦in Japan, not America. a friend had an import andā€¦yeah, anyway. Guilty Gear is the only game I hold some ground in. I donā€™t care about losing, cause itā€™s funnier to lose than win. But uhmā€¦Iā€™m super supportative to my teammates and thatā€™s about it.

By the wayā€¦5P is top tier. :tup:

Thanks for your team .
Iā€™ll keep it on a new thread.

Yes it is 3 on 3 and GGXX, CvS2, and MvC2 will be the only ones that I will probably have here sadlyā€¦

But there will be singles for the independent soldier who think they have the BALLS to fight aloneā€¦

HELL NO!!!
I AINā€™T DOING THIS ALONE!!!

And i am thinking about those but i donā€™t know which system 3s is on.

Hey Silent Shinobi do you have a date and time for this yet and the place.

I do and I will post all you need to know .
Just look for The Romance of Da SouthEast Statesā€¦

Like the name?
I donā€™t like it but im playing Dynasty Warroirs 5 lately.

Iā€™m all over it.
Did finishing touches last night.
