Way to go on winning 3rd Strike!
DBQ Versus Cup #8 Results
MVC3
1st - NGamer (Wesker/Storm/Chun)
2nd - MysticBill (Ammy/Ryu/Wesker, Wesker/Haggar/Phoenix)
3rd - Hogosha (X-23/Thor/Storm, Storm/Thor/Ryu)
4th - Keela (Viper/MODOK/Doom)
5th - Olli (Zero/Spencer/Task)
6th - Adam (Wolvie/Akuma/Hulk or Sent)
7th - Kintehr (Dante/Doom/Shuma)
8th - Corey (Hulk/Ammy/Haggar)
Props to Bill for coming up from 5th seed to take 2nd and, of course, to Blake for showing how much he wanted to beat Phoenix…and to snag some extra gas money. Was good to see Alex there tonight for the first time since he was hit with PROFOUND DADNESS. Slops to me for completely forgetting how to play X-23.
Tekken 6
1st - MysticBill (Leo, Marduk, Miguel, Asuka)
2nd - Keela (Julia)
3rd - Hogosha (Asuka, Hwoarang)
4th - Olli (Jack-6)
5th - NGamer (Alisa, Lili, Julia), Kintehr (Random Select)
Fuck this game. Props to Bill for playing solid, slops to people picking Asuka. TreyPhoenix must be a fucking BEAST if he beats the entire Midwest with that pile of shit character. “Hi, my name’s Asuka, and my entire game revolves around a 15 frame mid and a slow-ass jab string. You deserve to lose if you crouch against me.” The only character worse than her is Tekken 2 Jun. Her only favorable match-up is against Winning. That old woman in the old “I’VE FALLEN AND I CAN’T GET UP” commercials has safer, better lows than her. Hell, she probably knitted Asuka’s 3P outfit scarf for her while waiting for Asuka to finish her f+2 cancel. Feng shoulda just killed the whole fucking school in Tekken 5 out of mercy.

1st is STILL not guaranteed to anyone, and I’ll have prizes for pretty much everyone…including some decent ones for top 3. So keep showing up hungry. I won’t guarantee that they’ll be extra copies of UMVC3, but I’ll see what I can do. Also, I have no guilt in winning this if I do, considering I used Captain America for the first six weeks and Thor/Ryu for all of them so far.

…yes, I could not play in any of these from here on out and win. That said, I have good prizes for top 3, and that race is close as hell. I’m looking forward to seeing how the next four weeks pans out for Alex, Olli, Jackie, Blake and Bill. So close.
Next week’s secondary game is…
…CAPCOM FIGHTING EVOLUTION, GOOD SIRS. You better believe I’ll be practicing this shit. Can’t effing WAIT.
Bring that shit to Des Moines. Ever see a T-Rex get fucked by a Jap? You will here.
Is anyone going to SB this year?
I wish but at last my job won’t let me ask kemps he might be willing to go
I laughed way to hard at that >.>
Anybody out in Sioux City?
Man I really feel sorry for you about everybody is in the east side of iowa the closest you will get is Des Moines. At least you live in souix city and not some poduck town over there.
Thanks, I guess I will have to hit up Sioux Falls if I am in that area.
Any word on those Super vids from MOK?
Hey Iowa,
Anyone going to Season’s Beatings this year? It seems like there’s several people interested…
I’m sad she didn’t record the mystery tourney.
What the hell’s wrong with her???
I’ve been tossing around dates for the next monthly, but before I put anything in stone, are people still interested in having me host this? I recall something about a Des Moines weekly or some such thing, and the turnout for our last monthly was dismal, to put it mildly. Thoughts?
As long as there’s a monthly somewhere in Iowa, I’m down for it. Of course, you kick some ass at running shit Xiang, so I’ve got no problem whatsoever driving to CR for it.
You can size my hole anytime, figs.
My main concern is turnout. We went from 30 some all the way down to 5, which included me. I know some regulars had ish goin on that weekend, but if only 10 people are interested in continuing these, shit, I’ll just do it at my house, lol.
Pretty much what Figgy said for me as well. However, I’ll go anywhere at any time (as long as there’s no football going on). Des Moines people are the ones that need to be responding to this. Many are awaiting Ultimate Marvel 3 and/or 2012 AE, motivation is low(er). Last month may have been a freak date, who knows. Maybe try one more month if Des Moines can’t get their tournament going and go from there.
I have been stuck at my parents house literally every single weekend. On Friday’s I get there straight after work and work until 10pm, Saturday I get up and get there at 8am and we work until 9pm, and Sundays we work from 8 to 5pm, I’ve just been absolutely swamped and haven’t even had a chance to go to Liar’s Club to iron out any details. From the looks of it we should be done in two weekends, but yeah because of this I basically haven’t had a life since before Evo. I made it to one during this because it just happened to be on the weekend my parents were out of town. If you do it again I’ll show up, just with the house work I’ve been stuck doing I have had literally zero free time until it gets late =/
