Mississippi II: New Threads Actually Excite Us

I’ve tried to be a part of my own little scene for over a year, but I’ve never gone to the regional zones here at Shoryuken until just now. I’m not that great a player, but I’m always willing to play for hours on end and I see getting bodied as getting better.

I live here in Biloxi, MS. I play with a few people locally, but their tastes aren’t as diverse as mine. I play SSFIVAE, MvC3, MK9… used to play BB:CS, and things like that. Looking forward to 3rd Strike Online. One other friend of mine plays on PS3 with me, while the other two play on 360. They really only play MvC3.

PSN: FDSariku

But I rarely play online. My connection isn’t great to play real serious matches, but I’m hoping to find some people in the area that are willing to play.

Welcome aboard :wink:

My area is kind of close to that and I know a few people who play SSFIV AE and MVC3 , but don’t know many who play MK9 . I have PS3 but I don’t play it much anymore , and neither do I have SSFIV AE for PS3 .

We need to get involved in certain stores and see what we can do to get some small tournaments going . I don’t know of a single Play N’ Trade in this area :frowning: .

Gautier is definitely driving distance, as I would assume Biloxi/Woolmarket area is for you. We should definitely try to make plans sometime soon.

I got into competitive fighters back in 2006 when I started playing Melee competitively. I found a small crew of Smash players in a GameTraders at Edgewater Mall, and eventually only two of us remained. The store closed down and the owner opened a PlayNTrade around Ocean Springs area, had time for one Smash tournament, and then that store closed down too.

Now I play more “Capcom Fighters” than Melee because the area down here is dead, but I’m the only one who plays SSFIVAE [and I’m balls at it; I think it’s difficult to learn a game like SFIV when you don’t have good players to play again, and online is just heartbreaking], but I have a group of four that tinkers with MvC3 and MK9. We’re definitely not really tournament competitive at a big scene, but we’re at least smart enough to hold our own to some degree? lol. I dunno, I guess we’ll just need to try to set a date up to play. I dunno if I can get all my people since three of us work at the same place, so we never have time to hang out except late at night, but I’d personally definitely be interested in setting stuff up.

mind if i add u? :slight_smile: i play ssf4 ae ,mk9 and tekken

mind if i add u? :slight_smile: i would love some mississippi ppl on my list :slight_smile:

go ahead and send me friend request.

No problem, chico. Maybe we can play sometime. :]

I was hoping that was a V8 Fusion he drank…

xruiza on psn. I play SSFIV:AE. Don’t have my stick yet though.

Ocean springs, ms

Yeah, I got my stick in about a week and a half ago. I actually feel like I picked it up without much issue. Though that may have to do with the fact I was never a big baller on pad anyways. lol.

I could fix that if everyone uses a device intended for use on a PS3.

I’m debating going to ARK, but that’s a hell of a long drive alone. Would anyone care to ride/room with me?

hope some of u guys can make it. If not see u in sept.

Not gonna be able to make that one, already have plans this weekend. Will be coming to the tourney in Tuscaloosa though.

Any one who has sent me a friend request please send again. I know i denied one by accident thinking it was hate mail from black ops.

I’d roll with you up there but I’m gonna be moving around that time so no-can-do.

Edit: Planning on bringing my rig and an extra PS3 to Red September. Modded drivers loaded on PC and will use most (if not all) devices.

Its in pearl ms just outside of jackson on september 10th, hope you guys can make it out. Also duck Im going but if you need someone to ride then ricky, myself and if you have room for one more wouldnt mind riding with you. Hell we can come back the same night if you want since it would be more going to help drive instead of staying but that’s up to you. Also my psn is kyoji24 for anyone who wants to play ssf4 ae, my xbox 360 gamertag is Kyoji24, only 3 weeks away from Red September 3 people and so the HYPE continues. JROCK, are you guys coming up to it? Also does anyone have a monitor or crt tv along with mvc3 they can bring to the tourney, I got maybe one setup and need at least 2 more for that game. Any others such as ssf4 ae full setup along with mk9 full setup would be greatly appreciated, that will wave your registration fee as well.

Wait, going where? I’ve got five tournaments I’m going to between now and November. You’ll need to be specific. ^^;

And I can bring an EVO monitor and PS3 for MvC3 for RS3.

I plan on going to ARK IV sir so yea as what I said above. Also cedric said you better drag cylus down to RS3 so he can get his rematch against him in marvel lol

I dunno if I’ll be able to give rides or let people stay in my room. I’ve got a few private arrangements down for ARK. Sorry about that. ^^;

And I’ve given up on trying to get Cylus to go anywhere.

I think he meant to say Vice since I had asked a few posts ago about it.

In which case: I wouldn’t mind bringing you guys along, but:

I’m not driving up there to stay just one night on a two-day tournament.
