Kansas City, pick some mains or quit already

It’s cool I’ll go solo :wgrin:

Actually I’ll probably wind up begging and pleading for a partner come the day of the tournament, so hopefully no one will feel offended by the previous statement.

Its going pretty good. I seem to keep missing you online, but its understandable all things considered. Hope your getting your practice in. Between getting my ass handed to me in Punch Out by Don Flamenco of all characters, trying to learn how to play bionic commando, and just trying to live life, Im practicing hard on my Vega game. I also need to work on my Axl Low in Guilty a bit more. I just hope that what Im learning in GGXXACPlus transfers over to GGXXAC ok.

Just try having a 16 hour D&D play session with 4 other burly dudes and a crabby DM in an Apt with no A/C in the middle of summer. The accumulated funk of B.O., cigarette smoke, and pizza grease can really get to a person. @@ Yet you still playwhy? Because its soooo much fun! ^^

Hmmm that could explain the difficulties just getting on. I remember similar issues with Brawl back when I only had the 1 comp and the Wii. The Time Warner guy strongly suggested hard wiring my game consoles irregardless of whether or not they had wifi capabilities. It had something to do with the fact that they give out really cheap Wifi routers and those routers could only handle one Wifi connection at a time. Ill make the appropriate adjustments, test it out and the DNS solution as well.

Not to mention the codpiece action on C.Viper! Lol Also, Im beginning to think that gravity is starting to wear on Chun-Lis chest. If you watch closely, youll notice that either her boobs are sagging or she really needs to cage those puppies with a more proper fitting bra

Thank you, and Gg back at ya! :bgrin: The Integrity, the Intensity, the Intelligence! All 3 were just with me that night leading me to a first time ever long winning sreak against both you and Dionne. On that same token though, your Fuerte has gotten even more spicy and well, FUERTE!

Ill gladly partner with you Drew! :tup: How about it? We could be Team Luigior how about El equipo en Verde! or something. ^.^;

Im hoping Axiom allows for multiple entries on different teams Then Jspot and I could do our Team Espania we were thinking about. :karate:

In other news, I was looking at the TvC US thread and saw this little bit of awesome on page 3:

LMFAO!!! :rofl: If only I were allowed more characters in my sig…

You’re in consideration Vince, but having multiple entries on different teams would be a BAD idea, think of the different combinations STL could come up with. Every team in the top eight would have Rex in it.

I’m hitting up Warrensburg on Saturday to play some people out there. Gotta get the FOUNDER leveled up, his Abel is showing flashes of brilliance. It would be nice to have more people come out to Chachitown Fair so I wouldn’t have to drive an hour to hookups, but I gotta go where the action is I guess…

I would be at all these hookups if my work Schedule didn’t suck so bad. :frowning:

Sorry I got those directions late to you Jesse. Did you end up having to work anyway?

Also, GGs to Rob, Vince, JSpot and crew. JSpot cleaned out Little Caesar’s for tonight’s hookup, probably had about 15-20 other people there. I gotta learn how to actually teach SF, KC needs some more Jaime Escalantes in the community.

“… how can I reach these keeds?”

fukken i can teach those kids… im just not the best player… and i can speak some spanish for that richardo kid. it was a fun night

last night was the first night where chachi didnt completely pwn me all night… im going to go cry in happiness now.

Lessons begin 6/6, number one rule:
Dont press buttons!!! Ima be screamin dis with each free frame trap u guys give me.
GALACTIC TORNADO!!!

Rufus ga kimetaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

I heard you can get killed at MASH OUT.

Only if you fuck up.

not sure if I can make it to the MAXOUT but I will try. I probably only won once last time because I didn’t have my Donald Duck Shoryuken shirt on.

the saga of mango hsien-ko continues!!! i feel like i really levelled down my anakaris, good shit guys!!!

benra really cleaned out that bag of chips he must have eaten like 15-20 other chips. afro’s steak = god tier!!! whats realy good!?

i don’t really have a joke or reference to make regarding “dhalsim stanky leg” but i’ll throw it out there anyway, also i’m not talking about sf4 because that game is an abortion of design!

GGs to Courtney, Sean, Dave and Josh last night in the 'burg, seems like everybody’s getting burned out on SF4. That game is almost too forgiving, while Accent Core kicks your ass if you don’t have your frame data down. Hopefully BlazBlue will find a sweet spot in the middle of both extremes.

Only pussies that aren’t winning are getting burned out, Drew. If those guys were pitching a fit about having to play SF4 at hookups, it’s because they can’t hang. In Courtney’s case, it’s not even his fault, but the others have no excuse except they’re trash. I suck too, but I’m not crybabying about the game, I’m just getting my head mashed in until I get better.

We wouldn’t even have these epic hookups without SF4. You guys better quit your tearing and start studying.

I agree that Blazblue will probably be amazing. That and T6BR have me psyched for fighting games later this year.

BTW, A-Kon was pretty much awesome. The gameroom had around 200 people or so in it at any time, and the SF4 interest was out of control. More players around those setups than any other game. I did get a kick out of this scenario:

Kong at the SF4 sticks running shit…
Le at the Guilty sticks running shit…
Clint at the Caliber sticks running shit…
John at the Tekken sticks running shit…

Too funny. Although I did meet a couple REALLY good Guilty players and upped my game a bit. Oh yeah, and Kong placed 3rd in the 64 man SF4 tournament they had. The TV’s lagged and dude didn’t even bring his stick. Oh well, it was still fun.

See you guys Friday. And be prepared for Saturday.

YAHOO!

Gg?s indeed at the J-Spot/Spottswood Coliseum Friday! Big ups to Jspot on the Pizza run, it was tasty! The chill-axing later in the night watching those tourney vids was very educational as well, not mention a good way to end the night.

Stuff I learned Friday night:

  • I need to calm the fuck down when the Rolling crystal flash is rolling across the screen. This is NOT Marvel. Those extra button presses will NOT give me more hits?(read: STOP MASHING :mp: VINCE!!!)
  • Ex wall dive does NOT work as anti-air tactic. Claw is quite vulnerable on the way up.
  • Lvl 2 or 3 FADC, hold :r: , :hp:, :hp:, then :db:+hk, and then Ex wall dive is a very rewarding combo and does decent damage. However, it doesn?t register as a combo and has a methodical pace which requires NO MASHING and PRECISE timing.
  • Gotta remember, j.:mk: is NOT a good jump-in with Claw. Use j.:hp: or j.:hk: instead.
  • I think I owe Ben-ra $20… His advice to jump straight up in certain situations has saved my life more than once. Plus, if you hit :hk: late as you land you do a nice flippy thing that can combo into other things very easily to setup another chip combo.
  • No matter how much I think I?ve leveled up, there?s always someone who has leveld up at least 2x as much since last I played them.
  • I truly suck at 3rd Strike, but I always have fun playing. :bgrin:

Yeah, thinking about it further, it was a silly question. My bad.

I agree, which is why I carry around that SF4 guide to hookups these days. If anyone wants to peruse it, they are more than welcome. Also, I am partially hard of hearing, so if you have a question to ask of me, please speak up. I?m afraid I may have offended some this past Friday when questions were asked of me and/or advice was given and I didn?t respond. My apologies, I really do need to get my hearing checked again… or learn how to read lips, lol. :sweat:

Indeed! KC MAXOUT! Hype get!

Also, I envy your ability to go to stuff like A-kon. It’s nice to hear you guys had fun. Perhaps, funding will be available for me to travel out more often to out of town stuff in the future. Only time will tell…

John- Just to be fair and to let the others return the favor, I stuck around for TEKKEN this time. I should practice juggles and throw breaks in that game, but by the time I have it down everybody will have moved on to BR, which means starting from scratch while getting hit by Steve Fox’s grand upper…

i need a partner for 6/6 maxout… my partner, Kevin Nguyen has to work at the nailshop… no needed for jokes with this sentence.

Jspot, tell kevin to get off his butt and do something lol. too much working on nails is not good.

Fun stuff last weekend at dallas guys. Thanks for the ride John.

GET HYPED! MAXXED OUT!

If sf4 is late like last time and I can get off work around 3 or so, JoMo may make a showing at mashout.
