TOURNAMENT UPDATE: The tournament will be pushed back to Friday May 20th. Sorry for any inconvenience.
Phew, just missed prom by a hair lol.
Just go to the tournament, ill take care of your prom date;)
Lol wtf, dude find your own date xD
I finally get some time to start looking around again and I see a tourney rolling up. Cant ask for anything better there. Been way too busy the past few weeks with the store. But good news its all over this fri and Ill be stopping around again to get some games and practice again.
bout time man, need to level up with us all!
yeah, the turnout is getting good, and I think it’s to the point we try and have 3 setups at the encounter, AT LEAST.
shit, if we could get 4, 2 for SSF4 and 2 for marvel we might not have to hear Jeremy bitch all night about ppl still playing marvel lol
if ppl have setups (tv and console) don’t be afraid to bring them. If they don’t get used, oh well, but if things get jumping then we have more options. And if you want other games to be played, then DEF. bring your own setup with that game. Right now Marvel and SSF4 are the most popular games, so we tend to play those. (for the guy who came to play Tekken cuase he saw it on the flyer)
Besides that I’m very much proud how the Lehigh Valley scene has grown and bonded since I made the LV thread years ago. And everyone contributes something to the scene which is great. Now we all just gotta help each other out and keep leveling up.
Summer Jam is right around the corner…and it’d be great to see a lot of the regulars out for the tournament. The tournaments are a ton more fun when you’re going as part of a crew and have ppl rooting for ya. Plus we got some killers in our area that have a good chance at beating some top players and getting the LV some street credibility. So think about it, even if you go just to party and spectate. shits a blast.
well there’s the end of my rant.
Phd
someone wanted to play tekken??? I play a bit if they want the comp.
As much as i love ssf4, Marvel has taken over my gaming time. Jeremy just mad cause he gets bodied free in Mahvel. Ill hop back on ssf4 at some point, prob when AE drops.
somethings gonna have to happen when AE, MK, MvC3, SFxT are out. 3 setups aint gonna be enough lol
i already know I won’t be on marvel once MK and the SFxT game drops. both those look sweet and more up my alley.
hey all!
don’t mean to spam the thread or anything, but we’re just getting the word out about the next big tournament in Blacksburg, Virginia.

had a great turnout last time from a bunch of VA/NC players, hoping to get even more this time around.
I gotta a question guys. What’s stopping us from having weekly sessions?
I can only answer for me but it is basically…
-
inconstant numbers for turn outs. some weeks we have 20 others 5.
-
for me a long drive. I live 40 minutes away.
In the end me and levi started this to grow the community but the community has to push to help it continue to grow. Anyone can hold an event, speak to a couple people to make sure you got the stuff you need.
That’s understandable. We should really start increasing our session numbers because IMO every other week isn’t enough. Especially for a game like mvc3 where the online is next to unplayable. I guess I could try asking around next session to see if others are interested also and then maybe I’ll try to set something up.
I don’t really get to play online anymore so I’d definitely be down if anybody wanted to work towards setting up something weekly. Better yet we could even have something set up so that it alternates from the encounter to somewhere else each Friday so that it would be easier to set up a second go to place. Even if it’s just down to stopping by someone’s house for casuals it could still be great practice.
I got my eye on Summer Jam and East Coast Throwdown 3 so we should really try to see who wants to go to tournies ahead of time like we did before for a few.
I play a few other fighters also (DOA4, BlazeBlueCS, SF2, SF3, MvC2) so if anyone wants to bring a setup to play some other games I’ll give it a go for sure. Dunno much about tekken but I’d definitely be willing to try cause I love it.
I agree, the netcode on MVC3 is horrendous…Takes 5 minutes to find a rank match. Although I just got to 4th lord(202-30), its not a stable way to level up…
Hey everyone. Been a minute. Been pretty busy with life lately. Trying to find a new job. Played some SSFIV tonight for the first time in a while. I’ve been playing a lot of Magic in my free time. A friend and I have been practicing Legacy for higher level tournaments. Wanted to say hi and see what everyone’s been up to. Drop me a line sometime guys. I miss being decent with Juri haha. Any other Juri players in the group now?
nah no Juri players…and hey man…we play at a comic shop. So literally right behind our backs are like 20-30 magic players every week. So we’re the place to go if you wanna get your MAGIC and SSF4 on lol. But you should come check it out. It’s been a while and you were one of the dudes that helped up get the ball rolling. So you should see how it’s grown since then.
and like I said aint no one using Juri. Maybe I should in your memory! lol
Cool to see the front pages players updated again. Makes me wonder how big it will actually get lol
Hey Phil you have me listed twice and I’m not from Allentown lol.
And yeah it’s cool to see the community grow. I remember last year when I thought I would never find a single soul to ever play SF in person. I’m glad I joined!
I can’t wait for AE. Super Cammy is boring and one-dimensional to me now, AE Cammy is where it’s at!
