they’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 don’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 would’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 don’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.

I’ll start I suppose. My name’s Michael, I’m currently in college in Atlanta, and I’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 Birmingham’s XX/#R scene in general. I’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 didn’t sound mean, but I think there’s still a lot of work to be done here.

Sorry about the eagerness.

Name’s Ben and I’m from the B’ham as u may know.
I’m 16 and I have been playing GGXX for a good year and a half. I’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 don’t ask me about FRC timing cause mine’s is WAY OFF THE BEAT! I was 2nd in my class before I left. My homeboy created a underground society for GGXX EXPERT FIGHTERS…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 couldn’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 me…it wasn’t easy and the reason why I haven’t been to any tournaments was the fact that I came to these forums to take part in fr8(and i STILL DIDN’T GO!!!)

But I’m glad I came here. I apologize for my eagerness once again.

Hmmm, I didn’t exactly mean it that way, eagerness can be a good thing.

It’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 I’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 who’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 really…so im up for grabs unless you guys think otherwise :confused: …i just dont want to say im on this or that team and then get for real burned…(i get enough of that shit at school as it is from the bosnias harassing me and what not…ramblings) but anyway…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=I’ll rep ATL FOR SURE…but if KDX really needs an extra man then i am willing to fill in there unless he has a replacement…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 ]

Oh…what are we doing? Introducing each other. Alright, short and sweet.

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

By the way…5P is top tier. :tup:

Thanks for your team .
I’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 sadly…

But there will be singles for the independent soldier who think they have the BALLS to fight alone…

HELL NO!!!
I AIN’T DOING THIS ALONE!!!

And i am thinking about those but i don’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 States…

Like the name?
I don’t like it but im playing Dynasty Warroirs 5 lately.

I’m all over it.
Did finishing touches last night.
