Lets play at Gameworks Thursday nights

Couldn’t make it… :confused: I realized I promised the woman I’d go to a concert put on by her students and the rest of the school she teaches at. Dont think anyone missed me anyway heheh

I probably am not considered a reg by some but I go pretty much every thursday and sometimes more often.

I still can’t match some names to faces. I think I might have seen preppy or mandel. I just didn’t want to be like “hey are you some guy on a forum?” and have them look at me like lobsters were coming out of my ears.

Were either of you there last night?

Also, I didn’t think mandel played 3s?

Oh and I could have swore some drunk guys called mechanica “count chockula” or some shit like that.

Also, lol @ the drunk girl almost falling down the stairs then getting thrown out by the cop.

Hahaha, probably. I didn’t know what half of them were talking about.

If my assumptions were correct, both of them were there last night. Preppy was wearing a blue soccer jersey, and Mandel was wearing a striped white shirt.

I kinda like the new location of the machines, it allows for us to witness more people falling down the stairs. :rofl:
EDIT: also: “MAN YOU IN COLLEGE NOW BOY, YOU AIN’T GO NO MONEY!” :smiley:

Oh, and I was the guy with kinda long hair wearing a red/white/blue wristband. It brings me good luck. :smiley: (but all the luck in the world wouldn’t have saved me :frowning: )
I’ll be sure to properly introduce myself to everyone next time. :tup:

I joke man. You show up more than I. Strweth

Hahahah!! Good one Zach! Kwame was sick. I used to have a similar hairstyle to his as a kid.

Yeah I play 3S, mainly Dudley I/III. As Zero said, I ALWAYS wear a hat. I can’t leave home without it!

Yeah, Thursday are my soccer night, so I’ll usually be wearing soccer gear. I changed to pants last night because it was cold. Usually I’ll be wearing soccer shorts too. =\ (We won 3-2.)

I do play a little Third Strike, but I’m not going to bother people with my Third Strike play unless there’s nobody else in line - I’m too scrubby to make it be too interesting. I play games for fun, and there is to me no way to make Third Strike fun: I don’t find defensively oriented games that interesting. shrug Pinball, air hockey, Marvel, the nonsense that is Samurai Showdown - I’ll play those.

And I love NBA Jams, but that NBA on NBC ShowTime game is kinda garbage. I didn’t really see any Blitz games… just some Madden? Madden is overkill. Give me garbage fun games likes Tecmo Bowl, Blitz, RBI Baseball, NBA Jams - I’m there to have fun, not to pretend I’m a random head coach that needs to think about game strategies. :smile:

I was on TZ when I read this post from someone who works at Seattle GW (who plays Tekken).

There’s the link to that post. But yeah, maybe Zach was right. Maybe we were too quick to pass judgement. Only time will tell I suppose.

-crosses fingers-

That’s the best news I’ve ever heard.
and what’s #1 on their list of games to get? Super Turbo, baby. :smiley: :smiley: (yeah right :sad:)

I’m seriously hoping that it is.

or another 3S or Marvel cab.

Alpha 3 or Darkstalkers. =3 Oh man.

SWEET. Unless it is super turbo… then sweet for you guys. :lol: Really though, that’s great to hear. GW has too many shooters and racing games.

Nice. If that happens, I’d show up in Seattle a lot more:lovin:

But then again… We’re putting CVS2 in tomorrow:lol:

Well I for one am going to keep my hopes up. Unfortunately I don’t play anything other then 3s. It’s kind of funny, I’m not even a fighting game enthusiast really. I just picked up 3s one day and haven’t put it down since.

If we get something like alpha 3 or super turbo I am totally going to learn though. At least there’s no goddamn oro in ST.

btw, prepzilla what do you mean by defense based games? Like parrying oond shtuff?

This is going to be my official “I have thursday off this week and will be showing” post, too.

Finally, don’t let me hear that you don’t have money. I always buy a time card and one is really all you need for everyone. Technically we’re not supposed to share them though. If the staff starts hassling us then I’ll just use a point card until I tap out. Also, I usually leave at about 10:30 to 11:30, but I usually give my time card to jason. (I don’t have money to blow out my ass or anything, I just want to get as many people playing as possible)

Yeah, the money excuse is not a good one. I was standing there swiping my card between almost every match.

Although parking can be expensive :frowning:

It’s time to fire off an email to GW, explaining why ST would be an excellent choice. :smiley:

Yeah - limited guessing and timing games without much respite. It’s fascinatingly technical - I watched it all at SBO with a lot of interest - but … I’m just not interested in playing footsie-based games. Or if it’s not footsies, boring-to-me stuff like fireball keep-away (in ST and etc) that you can’t just super-jump over. I realize I play fireball keep-away Mina in Samurai Showdown, but I know for a fact that none of us play that game seriously. :smile:

I would play Third Strike casually, but when I watch people move slightly back and forth for five seconds to feint out moves, I really truly want to claw my eyes out. I appreciate people that can enjoy that - I can’t.

Hell, that’s even a problem for me in Marvel - I dare to push a button and get beaten up by Mag and Storm’s glitched moves (those attack-hit-boxes are so amazing - they really do give Sagat’s cHP a run for the money). Oh well. After getting beat by the Win Button that is Random Lightning Attack way too often, I’ll stop actually trying to push buttons in Marvel, I guess. Laming people out is the way of the future. :lol:

Defense-based games are quite fun in aggressive play. I’m sure you’ve seen the infamous “Prowl” in old Daigo matches. How is constant dashing in-your-face beatdown gameplay so bad? It’s those Chun-Chun turtle matches that make me want to dunk my head in sulfuric acid :wasted:

A little birdy told me…

Nice, so the rumors are true. That guy postin on TZ is probly Matt one of the Tech Managers and a fuckin filthy Tekken player.

I’ve told a couple of ya already, but supposedly they’re gonna get a fighting game that uses the same screen that Virtua Tennis 3 uses(which is very beautiful). The only game that could possibly be on sumthin like that has gotta be VIRTUA FUCKING FIGHTER 5!

But…as I said its all rumors. Seein as it is Matt sayin it tho its gotta be true.

That kid don’t lie.

PS. GGs on Friday 9TNine. Low tier forever!

But don’t you play Chun Li? You’re not exactly exempt from that I’d imagine.
