Kansas City Drinking: We Have a Serious Fighting Game Problem

Just so people don’t think we’re slacking out here:

I’ve logged a TON of time this week in SF practice mode, and to an extent Marvel and KoF also. Tekken up next. I hope everyone is practicing up for these next couple weeks of tournaments.

Regarding Marvel, I’m going to try a new approach to the game. It seemed to work wonders on Friday. No idea what will happen this time, but Chris convinced me to stay on the game to a degree. If I can level up in the near future, I may keep on it. If not, I probably won’t. We’ll see. It’s not taking away from the time I’d be devoting to my other games though. SF has been grueling this week…

SF, I owe some of you guys writeups. I’ll try to get them popping when I get a bit of time, I’m just hopping in here for a second to bump the thread.

REMINDER:

So who all is going to stl’s mash appeal?

I said I would go but it would require 2 things, a ride and a place to crash.

me john samson are in one car and d’wayne and jeremy are in another. And i think we are gonna crash at rex’s or someone else house

Well as of right now im going. If i go friday i got a place to crash but will probably have to drive back that saturday night.

HOOKUP TONIGHT. japanese house rules tonight - take off your shoes before entering please. the shoe mats will be next to the door. somebody please bring some SF skills.

Well, I hadn’t planned to drive my car all the way to STL. I was going to hitch a ride with Samson. Samsons car seats 4 and that load is full : Samson/Chad/Le/Myself. If people want a ride with me to Samsons Place on Friday night, and can get Dwayne or Jeremy to give you a ride to the Lou, that should work then. I’d be willing to take people up to Warrensburg in my car. I’m going to leave OP sometime in the late afternoon/early evening.

If anyone else is willing to drive a separate car, that’s another story all together, but I suggest you guys figure that out fast.

If Samson’s place is full for you guys to crash on Friday night, a few people can stay with me for Friday night if need be. Just let me know in advance please. Also i only have one futon so if you don’t mind sleepin on the floor then shouldn’t be a problem. but please be sure to bring some extra sheets as i don’t have any extras.

Well, Boxy, or anybody else, if you want to ride with me and Jeremy, meet up at his apartment by 8:30, because I’m not leaving any later than that. And I’m actually leaving before then if you don’t let me know by tomorrow… I’m only taking one more person because I’ll be transporting film equipment with me and I want to make sure I’ll have room to safely transport my monitor.

Why film equipment, for B roll I’m going to be using in an upcoming documentary. Which brings me up to my next point, what do you guys think is better? A doc on KC’s growth or a doc on the KC/STL rivalry? I feel the need to ask because the rivalry is pretty friendly and moving along pretty slowly without incident (though that could change over the course of 6 months). On the other hand, we’ve had more people coming out and our skills have increased, but it’s amounted to little more than a few pats on the back. I know I want KC SRK to be my senior film, but I haven’t decided on the angle to make it compelling. Considering the fact that I could have graduated last year, I don’t want o drag this out either. So what do you guys think?

What rivalry? Not a lot there. KC is coming to STL for the first time in forever but its not like you got a lot to go off of especially since you missed the c squad vs kc 5v5. Not like there’s many money matches or hype shit talk going on between the two. Id work the angle of KC’s growth with asperations to one day even out the sort of lopsided rivalry. Everybody loves underdogs/up and comers. The bar and the tournament will make a great place to film though. After this tournament i have a feeling the results will go with the theme above so that’d be perfect like if you guys do well in STL or keep us from winning maxout sometime in a few months it’d be picture perfect.

Deron says I can ride with him but I had a question, isn’t all of STL’s tournaments run on XBOX? If so I wouldn’t even be able to play any games except marvel which I’m garbage at.

boxy - we have 12 set ups confirmed so far. 8 xbox, 4 ps3. we got you.

You guys can show up after 7pm today, I have one extra bed and 3 recliners.

ggs to everyone that showed up last night.

i beat sam in the first to ten that he challenged me to. score was 10-3.

great sets with chachi and Fullbleed

felt good to make chachi rage, its been awhile.

WYLER IS GODDDDDDDDD

I’m driving to Maxout, I will attend an after hookup, finally.

Hey I just requested to be added to the KC FaceBook group as Jane Dooe, please add so I can see the meetup info, thanks!

Its on the first page of this thread as well.

I watched the STL BarWarz stream off and on and caught most of our local’s matches today when I wasn’t busy running errands, but I did get to see Losers Winners/Finals Good shit to everyone. Good job Samson on taking second overall. John, your match with Gllty was really tense, and it was hearbreaking to see you lose after such a tense match. You played really well sir.

You guys will also have to elaborate on the “Money match” I heard being yelled in the background.

Glad everybody made is back safely. Too lazy for shoutouts. See most of yall this saturday.
