I hope nobody in here knew someone in these killings yesterday…
I m still watching the news to see the rest of the victims list, maybe yall should do the same…
Yeah…it was on the news all day. Like it was hard to be happy yesterday. It was all gloomy looking outside and then to hear that craziness happened. Still went out to play games tho. In all seriousness…sux that happened and deepest respects go out to anyone who lost lives or lost someone close.
the guy who did it came form centreville. (oh shit!)
Not to be insensitive or anything, but I’d appreciate if we stayed away from that topic in this thread. It is tragic, but there are places to talk about this. I’d appreciate it if we kept the vibe here light.
That being said, I’m free for the next two days, and I’m trying to level up. What’s good?
No, you’re right. It affects people, but there’s a time and place for everything.
Theres a thread for that, or u can post in the VT/Roanoke thread, not here man. Send ur condolences to the proper place…
Anyway… Havoc if u come Friday for games, can we play CVS2 man
I really need to get some games in!
kimmicks is playing bchan in cvs2?
i would like to side bet on kimmicks.
i have never seen kimmicks play cvs2 one time ever.
Damn ski…
Dave- Of course we can CvS that shit. As for the Evo East situation, speak now; there’s only one seat left.
chem- Let me know if you wanna play today. I can drive if necessary.
we can get some cvs in tomorrow if you want. I’ll pm you my address and cell#.
Cool.
Evo East seats are gone.
dammit
Gotta call it off chem. Fuckers at work can’t do a damn thing without me…
np, we’ll play some other time.
Where you work Hav? Random question I guess.
Hey MD crew. my name is alex strife…some of you may know me from NYC or NEC but I wanted to post my event up here…its stickied on the tournament thread and its one of the best ran events in the EC ( thanks to DXP who is running the event with me) for those who do not know its called Slammin Sat Nights…its april 28th and it promises to be
1 - well ran
2 - highly attended
3 - just overall fun
here is the copy and paste details
The last web2zone event that we threw was a SMASHING success. Over 70 players showed up for several tournaments and casuals. We had 3 tournaments with over 25 entries each! YOU THE PLAYERS came out and showed that we can really make shit happen.
WELL I’m pleased to announce some extremely good news: The owners of web2zone were SO impressed, we are DRASTICALLY UPGRADING for this event!
The Date: Saturday April 28th
The Time: 12 Noon-Midnight
The Price: $10 cover
The place: web2zone (Internet Cafe & Video Game Center)
54 Cooper Sq (Cafe Area)
New York , NY 10003
212-614-7300
The Skinny:
-MORE TVs
-MORE games
-MORE space (we get to use BOTH upstairs and downstairs)
-MORE time (the event starts at 12 noon and ends at midnight)
-MORE official tournaments
-LESS lag (tournaments will NOT be held on laggy LCD tvs but on brand new tube TVs purchased for this event)
-A megaphone so we can actually call players for their turns and they’ll hear us
OFFICIAL tournaments/ranbats to be held:
-SF3: Third Strike (had 33 entrants last time!) $2 entry
-CvS2 $2 entry
-Super Turbo $2 entry
-Marvel vs. Capcom 2 $2 entry
-Guilty Gear XX Slash (entry TBA)
Also, Virtua Fighter 5 as well as Tekken DR will be in the house on HDTVs.
I am thinking of turning the downstairs into the “casuals lounge” and using the upstairs into the tournament area, but that will be determined at a later date.
Parking is next door and is $25 flat rate for all day long. There is also LOTS of good food in the area.
SPECIAL NOTE: if you are sick PLEASE PLEASE stay home. Last time a lot of people caught a nasty bug from someone who was sick and still came. This should be avoided this time since we will not all be crunched up downstairs, but still, please use your heads and take care of yourselves.
Also anyone who farts in the tournament area will be subject to immediate DQ/bannage from Web2zone. That shit was RANK last time!
I hope to see just as many people, if not MORE, come out for this event! This will be perfect practice for Evo East which is only 1 month after this event.
who else needs a ride to evo i might drive dependin on stuff. pm if you need a ride ill get back wit you earlh i can fit 3 people hit me
