Anyhow Sam, Viper seems hard at first but once you know her “stock” setups she can actually become quite routine. I feel all those seismo/HJC/FTK cancels and whatnot only add a little to her gameplay, she’s really solid even without em! Or maybe that’s cuz I don’t know how to fully utilize her yet haha.
Get a PS3 so I can play your ass and you can play MGS. Leave Ryan alone with his future 360 haha! I kid, I kid. =p
lol so I finally broke up with my 2nd Korean girlfriend. We lasted 5 months… same amount as the previous GF I was with.
So what arcades do you guys go to? I’m so fucking rusty though lol
Now that I’m not pussy whipped I’m back into Street Fighter training. I gotta prep up for Final Round in ATL
i go to my local arcade in shinlim 80% of the time, but the closest major one that i go to is jungin. i’m one of those dudes that’ll travel an hour to check out other arcades too, though.
if you wanna train in 3s, i guess green is your only arcade option right now. but you’re gonna have to go when the good players go… (i dunno when that is), cuz otherwise it’s just newbz.
but it looks like ppl are gonna be gone for most of this month.
Well me Laugh and some French? guy did pretty well in the SBO qualifiers for 3rd strike when we had it in Korea.
I still apologize for my shitty performance. I sweeped a team during the qualifiers, but I still wasn’t playing at 100% because I was getting calls from my first Korean EX that was harping me to come see her that day.
tao, i forget, did you meet DBkoopa? i believe he’s one of the best 3s players in korea (and the only one who’s name i know haha). he knows a lot of shit about that game… and his yomi is too strong.
and wut happened to ur gf? i thought you already had one?
d.fox, i haven’t been to isu at a good hour, but i think it’s still bumping if you go like friday night. laugh would know better though.
lang: haha, yeah man. i think her jumps are still really throwing me off i think. i’ll prolly spend a lot more time with her when console comes out… in my room… alone… nekid…
haha, nah. i’d only get nekid if they remodeled her chest. it’s kinda fake lookin right now when the camera gets close up. where are the soul calibur-caliber breasts? taki ftw!
as for console, i’m 90% sure i’m getting a 360 =(. i want to play left4dead with my bay area boys, not to mention all the other games they have on their 360s.
Valaris pointed me over to this thread here. I’m glad to see a few SF players here in Korea posting on the boards.
I just recently moved here about three months ago. I moved here to teach English, but I moved to an area that doesn’t have any arcades, hahaha. I’ve been trying to find people to play SF with. I live in Anjung and there isn’t crap to do here. At least anjung isn’t too far from Seoul. Takes me a little over an hour to get to Seoul.
In general though, I’m still having trouble getting around in Korea. I recently went to the arcade in Shinlim Dong (Dong Bang Game Land). I played a few matches there, but there was hardly anyone playing. I played against one Korean kid that used Ken that was pretty decent.
Anyway, I’ll try to send all of you guys a message later today. I have to get going right now. I’m heading to Jisan Resort to do some snowboarding.
Haha, I tried sending a message out to you Eoneo, but I’m too new. I need to start posting a little more it seems.
Thanks for the greet and hopefully we can all meet up at an arcade soon. Feel free to give me a call any time (010-8639-3116). If I don’t answer it is most likely because I am at work.
so i got diagnosed with tuberculosis cuz of a primary x-ray when i came into the hospital cuz i couldn’t eat anything and i was SUPER WEAK
so they diagnosed with me “AGE” which is like acute gastric encephalitis? i am unsure if i’m spelling it right. anyway, it’s just an inflammation of the stomach. SO, i’m like okay? so they say to not eat anything which is completely contrary to what i’ve been doing. i was stuffing my face with chocolate, yogurt, and chicken kebab street foods cuz they are easy for me to eat. but after eating, i always get sick
so it turns out that when you have AGE, you’re to AVOID those products. hahaha man i’m a sucker
anyway, on my last day, they diagnosed me with tuberculosis cuz i showed them my bloody flem. i called my mom, she cried, i called my school etc
then they checked the CT scans and said it was just pneumonia
OMG
RETARDED
i recently went to china and i coulda EASILY gotten tuberculosis… anyway, i deleted the posts regarding what i did, they can be filled in in person after i recover from this fiasco
hi happy pencil, i am basically in your EXACT situation. except i don’t do snow sports cuz i gotta send a huge chunk of my pay back home for student loans etc. but anyway, i’ve only met laugh. the dude’s a beast
i hope he does well cuz then at least it means i didn’t lose to a scrub!
I do play a lot of SSF2THDR and 3s. I’m not that great at those games, but I do enjoy playing them and enjoy trying to get better at them. Unfortunately, I played 3s more on console rather than arcade.
I am ridiculously excited for SF4 though. I even ordered two tournament edition sticks. My parents should be sending one to me and the other should be coming directly here. So I am going to try to get a little more serious into SF4 rather than just mostly casual play.
ATM, I’m glad to hear it was just pneumonia. That still sucks, but at least it isn’t TB. Get better soon, man.
Dang!!! Grats on BOTH CVS2 man, you definitely deserve that shit! DOMINATED.
As for SF4 singles, I’d love to hear the story of your match with Bobino. From the live chat feed and Ultradavid’s videos I remember you peacing him out in SF4 teams…how did he adapt to you so quickly?
Man, peaced out by Fuerte in 4’s teams huh…I’m ashamed my Feurte wasn’t training enough hahaha. =p
Anyways I can’t wait to see what happens in CVS2 at Evo this year.
As for me I got 4th in the recent SF4 tourney, used Fuerte. Got beat by the eventual champ too, then lost 3rd place to the previous champ. =(
EDIT: I just love how you posted the results up in such a matter-of-fact way. I bet you’re feeling bloody awesome inside haha!
tao: dude that is both a bitch and a relief. it was pretty scary to read a post starting with “omfg i have TB.” get well soon
happypencil: dude! two stixx!? man i was considering having one sent here, but it’s like herra moneiz for shipping for that shit, no? if for some crazy reason you don’t want the second one, i’ll gladly buy it off you.
wow… laugh you are a fucking beast. i don’t feel so bad losing to you in sf4 now hahaha
but i have also beaten ricky O in team tournies. in like T5 or something in toronto canada. i went 0-1 the whole five matches. i lost to jwong, prez, sanford kelly, and fuck i can’t remember the last guy
BUT I BEAT RICKY hahaha
and he went 4-1
this was when RC electricity was somewhat new. and i could do it like… ANYTIME
and yeah anyway
thanks for all the support guys! TB is pretty serious. doc said 6 months for a full recovery. woulda gotten my ass sent back to vancouver if that really happened. and cuzza my contract, i’d have to buy my own plane ticket, pay back the school for their plane ticket here, and lose my damage deposit on my house
Well, bad news on that second stick. I tried paying it off on paypal today, but for some reason my paypal account became “limited”. So I can’t pay for the stick yet. I have to get my dad back home in the states to clear the paypal account so I can give lizardlick his money. There has been an extraordinary amount of problems when trying to buy the second stick. All the problems are because of paypal, not Lizardlick.
I have all of next week off (jan25-jan31). I’ll unfortunately be busy from the 25-27. Doing some stuff with the relatives for the holidays and its my birthday on the 26.
Laugh, if the tournament is on the 31 I will try my hardest to show up. I don’t know if I will compete since I’ve played SF4 for such a short limited amount of time so far. I would like to at least like to meet you guys and watch you guys play. Of course, I would still love to play the game.
[edit]Oh, and an update on those tournament edition sticks: Looks like I should be getting both sticks! I got both of them paid for and ready to go. One stick will probably show up later than the other, though.[/edit]
