Maritimes Thread 2011

Yes, I reckon. People generally come over whenever, if they want.

And yeah, Dave, I note the saving of streams, but it’s mostly just getting the proper internet connection and computer stuff that can handle stuff to make it not look like total ass. Urgh. It’s pretty pricey. If that’s not what you replying to, then…I’m an idiot. Well, I am anyways, but I acknowledge it more now!

Also, Drew, why are you ripping on people so fervently? You aren’t even participating in the money matches. I’m sure they would be willing to listen if you gave out a few dollars.

By the by, you’re from Halifax. Even if the scene isn’t amazing yet, it doesn’t get there by having zero pride.

P.S: That dead horse has been beaten terribly. Is there any left of it?

The Monday after a tournament has traditionally been slow and the tourney goers are beat.

This Monday, Ran Bats are cancelled, and will resume Monday March 21st.

Casuals still happening?

Casuals would be awesome first week back… and an excuse to play Marvel is always a good one.

No SF at all was my understanding when I spoke with Adam. Take the time off guys, spend it with your love ones. By love ones I mean your arcade stick at home.

There’s no event at all at the store on the Monday after the tournament.

Shipping from any site that do the SF t-shirts are just plain ridiculous.

How do you guys play Marvel online? I swear to god I can’t block high then low.

Karmaloop may still have Triumvir stuff.

You mash harder then the other person.

why isn’t the tourny in this thread for people?

Because it’s not being streamed?

I thought it was. oh well.

I’ll probably tweet live from the event with results.

I’d just wait for the srk post myself but whatever

Dave, you thought it was being streamed because Adrian says it will be in the video.

I knew I wasn’t crazy

Nah, I’m just trollin. I really don’t care about how much we suck, honestly. Being myself, I hardly take fighting games all that seriously anyway. Besides, I’m somewhat tired of them at this point anyway. Been focusing on playing other games as of right now like Demon’s Souls and older games like Act Raiser. I might get back into Mahvel and learn new characters, but honestly I can’t find myself being terribly interested in it like others are here. Hell, I’m more interested in learning Tekken than Mahvel… though I think I might change my attitude about that at some point. I dunno. The game kinda just annoys in a number of ways, actually. I suppose I’m just not all that great at team oriented fighters.

If you know me, I really have no bias in nationalism at all. To me, my level of caring goes more on an individual basis than it is patriotism. I’ll cheer for someone awesome from Cali moreso than some lameass from Halifax anyday. It’s not something I’m really caught up in, simply put.

I don’t mind money matches. Though I don’t really have much to throw out, personally. If anyone want’s to have one, I’m fine with it. But not too many really want to and I don’t really want to either. So eh, whatever.

Personally, I don’t mind being there with some of you guys and helping you improve your game some more. But really, I don’t think we’ll ever be that strong of a community IMO. At least not compared to others in the nation and being as Canada isn’t that great to begin with, I suppose that says something. Not really trying to be derogatory or anything, but just saying.

Just play the bloody game, most of us only travel between NB and NS to play the game, so really, our skill level only matters between the two provinces. The only people worried about skill levels from other places are the ones willing to travel outside of the Maritimes, to EVO and Montreal. The only way someone’s going to get to that level is by playing the game, a lot. Don’t worry about who lives in the house next door if you don’t plan on talking to them.

In short, I’m bitching for people to stop bitching, bitches.

Drew: You have no pride, you have no honour. Please stay home on Monday nights.
