Well that’s pretty cool as long as it doesn’t run on Sunday. I’ll look at what games are on the list.
i think its saturdays
What’s up guys, my name is Joel, I own Parallax LAN Center in Mineola.
A fighting game scene is not something we have ever been strong in (besides SSBM) and it is something that I would really like to see some action with (along with a few employees who are big fighting fans).
I was wondering if anyone out there wanted to help me set up a fighting tourney. As far as equipment goes we have 4 HDTVs, 2 32" tube Tvs, and an “arcade style” setup with a dreamcast hooked up to a CRT monitor with a dual X Arcade stick hooked up to it.
Anyone can email me at joel@parallaxlan.com if they wish, or reply here, though I do not check these boards too often.
Thanks!
dammitt I keep forgetting to sign up.
-a.
How many spots are left? Also, does anyone have any more info about how this will work and what games are on the list?
I was gonna go today but got tied up. It’s quite the walk though, so I don’t wanna go and then discover something that would cause me to not enter.
i think it takes place on saturdays…there is enough spots open…there a bunch of good games i actually forget what is on there but i picked ggx2,darkstalkers3,sf 3rd strike,sf alpha 3,hyper sf2… if you have any questions feel free to call them…Guido is running it so ask for him
i went down today and the 3 employees there weren’t sure how Guido was running it so they took down my name and phone # and said that they’ll give it to guido to call me back. So just in case call the Game Crazy in Selden to confirm that Guido will be there so that you don’t make a silly trip out like I did.
-a.
How do you pronounce Guido anyway? Guy-doe?
i assume gwee-doe? what time does that game crazy close? i think I’m swinging by tomorrow night to sign up.
Yeah, I don’t think I’m doing it. It seems like stuff like Smash and Fight Night are the most popular choices so far. Also, Virtua Fighter 5 isn’t on the list because they apparently don’t have a PS3. (VF4 is, however) It seems like most of the games that will be chosen are ones I don’t actually know how to play. And if it is on Saturdays (yes, I forgot to check), I’ll probably miss it most of the time anyway.
By the way… for the DOA4 tourney, I’m running seperate Single and Tag tourneys: So feel free to join one or both.
Oy everyone! Fancy flyers courtesy of Adam C to pass around!
** http://www.megaupload.com/?d=LVACXK6O **
Type the 3 letters you are asked then click Download.
If the page suddenly changes, look for “Skip This Ad”.
Inside this zip file, you’ll find 3 versions of the flyer. (PDF, PNG, and JPG.) It doesn’t matter which one you print. (PDF is highest quality, then PNG then JPG) Just print, copy, and pass around.
Give them to all the gamers you know. Post them up at whatever schools you can. (particulalry, colleges like SBU and SCCC) Give them to any game stores or arcades that will willingly display one or pass some around.
Adam will make new flyers for each event and I’ll be sure to pass them on to you all.
EDIT: Here’s a quick link to look at the flyer: http://ourworld.cs.com/raisuke5/Long+Island+Fight+Club.jpg
well what would you need help setting up…would you need like TV’s or something like that…or would you just want ppl to enter…i know me and some other friends who can go if there was a tournament there…i was hoping something would pop up…since David and Busters took out CvS2…we need a new place to play fighting games besides crowding up nathans broken machines lol hopefully someone can assist in this too…a tourney there could possibly attract some players
cla im not goin to be able to come down for doa4 tourn today…but next week are you doin a 2d tourn again?
Yes, I will do another 2D tourney as long as people bring the games and systems.
EVERYONE LISTEN UP!
There was a bad mix-up at Castle Golf. The person at the register didn’t know about the tourney today so they allowed a party to be scheduled at 4.
Basically, this means that we won’t be setting things up till around 6pm. So, don’t come eariler unless you wanna play some arcade cames for a little bit. I guess I’ll come at 5 just so I can be sure to set stuff up as soon as the party clears. (I’ll play arcade games with anyone [and probably sneak you free games] who does show up early) Lance will do everything to speed up the party and get them out as soon as possible.
So again, come at 6. Maybe 5:30. This also means less time for casuals as I gotta get these tourneys started fast. I’m looking to start them at 6:30, absolutely no later than 7.
To make-up for the severly shortned time, I’m cutting down the price to $10 for all games, and free casual-only. I’ll also take less money out of the pot for Castle Golf than I did last time.
Sorry for the inconvience. We’ll make sure this doesn’t happen again.
Other misc things: Somebody please bring SC2 for PS2 as I have only the Xbox version. And again, please bring any systems you can. Even PS2s. And of course TVs are helpful.
EDIT: Nevermind. I’m gonna arrive at Castle Golf between 5:30 and 6.
But I have only 1 TV to bring. Please bring more! And again, we are in need of PS2s, PS3s, and 360s.
Hope to see a good amount of people.
Well, only 2 people showed up. But we had really really really good casual games of Virtua Fighter 5 and Tekken: DR. Played casuals from like 6 till 10.
Looking ahead…

Anyone who can help with anything, please do. I don’t have those flyers from Adam C yet, but soon. Just spread word-of-mouth and post up on every forum you think would be interested for now.
I got the latest flyer, but this PC doesn’t wanna load it. If yours can read it, get the screenshot (press the Print Scrn key and then paste inside Paint) and upload the BMP to a site like MegaUpload.com.
Long Island Fight Club May 6th 2007 flyer
I also got a MySpace thread:
MySpace.com - Long Island, NY: Weekly Tourneys & Sessions
If you have a MySpace account, please post in this thread and keep it bumped. (things get pushed down extremely fast) There are tons of New Yorkers floating around the forums at any moment.
I can’t post myself because the MySpace forum glithces on this PC. You’ll notice I got someone else to make the thread for me.
