Hawai'i Video Gaming League Thread

Sorry but, broken or not. Brians is sadly one of the best maintained arcades I’ve ever been to. Also, a little bird once told me that if you want to get better, go to the competition. The competition isn’t coming to you.

Competition is …

Not at Pearlridge.
Not at Kaneohe.
Not at Mililani.
Not at your friend’s house.
Not at HVGL.

It’s at Brians.

No hate, just being real.

yeah i know what you mean, my post pointed that out. I just dont get WHY you would PAY to play on BAD sticks. And competition is not really trying to figure out that my roundhouse or weak kick dont work while im being hit with oros 31 hit death combo or being trapped in a corner being aegis refletored into oblivion with Urien. And paying for it.

Like i said I will still go there from time to time to check you guys out and see what i can do about hosting BIG tournies at Brians. I was told Friday night would be the night to do it.

So you answered my question about you guys. You stopped coming because of competition.

:lovin: no homo

I don’t play when the buttons don’t work. Most of the times it does. The sticks aren’t perfect, but it’s still playable.

Big tourneys at brians will be good but you need a tech there at all times.

Yeah i know me and Justin were there for our last big tourney. We worked on the cab for about 4 hours the night b4 to get everything perfect. Ask DJB the set up was good and the cab worked well. Its the one showroom that had VC in it.

Just let me know if those gamers have an interest in it. And ill set it up.:woot:

As for EVO practice I take it you didnt want HVGL to set one up b4 you guys go?

Thanks for clarifying that. Some people I know in Hilo used to play against some Oahu guys, but that was a long while back. If T6 were to become available, no doubt it would make many people want to play and take up Tekken again but who knows when that will happen.

When T6 hits consoles…it goes into tourney, just like SC IV and SF IV. LOL

There are only 4 of us going up for 3s this year. We’re just going to practice in a small group. HVGL would be overkill. Thanks for the offer though.

It almost seems like if LevIIDX and PSX goes then everybody goes. Or if one of them go then at least some of them go. But if none of them go then no one goes.

Why would that be overkill? Would playing against people with different skills and different techniques be too hard? Would it be too confusing for you guys or something? Throw off your game in some way?

Even if we’re not on your level, playing against different people with different skills might do you some good.

Yeah it’s too hard for me to adapt to such skill.

So you’re pretty much saying that we suck and that you don’t want to play with us because we aren’t on your level. If that’s so then you have an elitist attitude and need to get over yourself. If not then it’s just fucked up that you don’t want to play with us because you’re afraid of people like me rubbing off on you. But who knows, if I do end up rubbing off on you then it might do some good in other areas, for example socially speaking.

Elitist attitudes have nothing to do with this. I just wanna play in a small group.

And I’m also not good at “socially speaking.”

Do the thread a favor and stop doing personal attacks. If you’re going to do personal attacks, PM me so PSX and my admin buddies can see them.

Wow, you could’ve dropped it with the last post. But instead you wanted to come back with threats about your admin buddies. Fuck a PM to be honest. And I know you aren’t good at being social cause I’ve seen you at HBB and you stick to yourself.

I’m not generally mad at you personally speaking, I’m mad that you plainly said you don’t want to play with people not on your level. On your last post you kind of put it to rest with the you like to play in small groups post but killed it with the subliminal threat of getting me infracted or banned. Whooo I’m shaking in my boots I’m not even wearing…

And what do you expect me to say in a PM? I hate you? I hate your guts. You and your whole family can go and get raped by a timberwolf and then skinned alive by the devil after being castrated by my nieces and nephews? What? You expect a death threat or something just because I know how to find you on this island, including PSX lol. Man you don’t know me to expect me to be trapped by some bullshit you’re trying to pull. Fuck a PM. That’s not my style. You and your admin buddies. Like I’m scared. I got your picture.

I never said anyone sucks and I never said I don’t want to play with people that are not on the same level. Many people can vouch for that.

You’re making personal attacks towards what I didn’t say.

Let’s stay on topic and not waste space on the thread?

I’ll be real with you, no hate.

A little bird might have told you something, but this duck would disagree with what you said, since HBB was not the place for competition as far as T5 and DR. Pearlridge Tilt was the place for that. Tilt also hosted the tourneys when the Tekken scene was active. HBB had a Tekken machine but no one played there when T5 or DR was out… all the players were playing at Pearlridge Tilt. With the decline of the Tekken scene, there is no Tekken competition anywhere.

I don’t think HBB will pay for a T6 cab anytime soon, but I don’t know if a T6 cab will be on island anywhere. A shame, since T6 looks amazing.

HBB is great for SF and KOF, no doubt, but it’s not where all the competition is for every game. I don’t play Smash Brothers but I’m pretty sure the competition would be at someone’s house with a console, not at HBB. Same with Guilty Gear… no cab, so all the players played at home or at Zones, right?

So yeah, it’s not completely true that HBB is the only place you should go to get better in games, since HBB doesn’t have all the games people play.

What i miss?? LOL enters zen like state And to agree with ducky, I remember a few tournies at Tilt. And well they have a BIG KOF scene for that XI machine they have. But anyways lets erase the hate and just kick back. I get all your messages and see if i can talk about getting an HBBs tournament going. Did anyone think the set up we had was good at least?

I don’t know how the hate started either? It’s not my business, so I’ll stay out of that.

Back on topic, if you are talking about the setup you had for that food donation tourney, it was pretty good. I liked playing ST and it was cool how you had that projector type thing with it. Too bad I couldn’t stick around to play any tourney, but I don’t really care enough about games anymore to have stuck around for it. I was just there to donate some food, but ST on freeplay was fun.

lol my bad wasn’t referring to tekken, etc. only talking about sf.

Mililani Funs is serious business man. Soul Calibur 3 for money.

Mililani fun factory has like a GG cab now lol…I think it was midnight carnival with a messed up button layout.
No more SCIII, or last I went at least.
