NC Love/Hate Thread LIII: Whoopi Goldberg and Counterpicking

It’s making a comeback!

I’m glad you guys had fun, though.

Well to be fair, I talked to the guy a bit and he’s on a strict schedule to get shit done. He knows tournament standards and feels bad he can’t do sets, but they gotta do what they gotta do. I just pretend I’m in a really bad japanese tournament when we’re there. The DQs are fine and to be fair, we WERE late to CVS2 so, I think it’s just us being used to Lucky’s starting like 5 hours later than listed. I didn’t really care, it was CVS2 anyway lol.

Definitely had to ask to go piss though, otherwise you were done. But ehh, atleast we didn’t have to wait around. Infinite time is stupid though. I’ll talk to them about that next year.

Oh and as far as our matches, they were pretty good. I’m just learning not to fall into any patterns and where to use focus and pokes and what not vs her. Been trying to work on my ground game / whiff punishing lately so I think that helped a little. I felt I was a lot less risky than I was before I took my vacation from fighting games for a bit.

That Hakumen player seriously needs to join SRK though. I was really impressed with him.

I never really understood that saying. Usually when you get cake, you eat it, right? How often do you have your cake and not eat it?

When I said people Jimmy, I meant my two friends that I rode with and then there was demo and purify. That’s about it.

2 sets? fuck that we got shit to do. cant be wasting all that time for 2 sets
time? oh, infinite

RNLK.

…so I was bummed that I missed like 200 posts and my obsessive compulsive tendencies were going to require me to read the whole thread. Then this discussion appeared and saved me a shitload of time ie it’s fucking pointless. Fuck Keits.

Tournament standard is PS3. Are you forced to play on PS3 while your opponent fights you playing on his 360? Are you able to play on the exact same TV as at home? Is it CRT or LCD? Does it have lag that you can’t realize? Do you sit in the same chair? Do you leave the house? Naaaaaaahhhhhh. When we session, I set the match to one-round and infinite time. This is something that can be replicated on either system so this is the new tournament standard because that’s what I use and I am right and have done tests ok awesome. ADJUST should be the new catchphrase for 2011. It’s too bad you guys play Street Fighter instead of Bitchcup Championships. I think we should nominate a Bitchcup Champion before every Lucky’s, based from the posts since the last tournament, and automatically seed them into the losers bracket for being such a bitch.

Do you guys use TEs? Don’t have a heart attack: [media=youtube]7q_VAqwwO6k[/media]

Hopefully the link spawns another 900 posts so we can start a new thread.

You can’t have your cake and eat it too.

It would be impossible to eat your cake and still have your cake right?

what your talking about is having your cake then eating it

The trick is being able to make new cake while you eat your current cake. Profundity.

You guys are crazy, the time when you don’t eat cake… is when THERE’S PIE!!!

That’s the point of the saying. The very point is that you can’t do both. It’s referring to a situation where someone wants to have two incompatible things. In extremely basic terms: You can’t suck a dick and be straight. Misconstruing it as a problem of tangible cakes is just troll-foolery.

I have no idea what you just said.

Angus GAMMESSSSssss

oh right, let me NC thread it up for you:

Should balrog combo into ultra with jabs or go to qboro whoopi summit before or after he never sees angus because Smurvis is (NO JON) writing words words words, goddamn we sure do like to ***hate ***because im pretty sure the PS3 LAGS so make sure you add me to 360 so I can counter pick against KEITS.

Close the thread until MVC3 comes out, I just posted everything for everybody.

i miss third strike

Buying this post.

Reading about the experiences at the CGS was pretty amusing. Feels like something i’d have to check out just for the laughs one year.

Hmm I wonder why the saying isn’t Eat your cake and have it too? That would make a lot more sense.

Now you know, and knowing is half the battle…

Lucerne did what I’ve wanted to do but could never find the words. He summed up 1000+ posts in 1. I have nothing further to add.

GG man. I was definitely rooting for you when you played that Bison, lol. That combo into *super comeback was pretty beastly. I beat that Bison the first time but I didn’t want to fight him again at all. That matchup is really difficult for the green goblin and I just barely squeezed out the win on him.

Have one’s cake and eat it too - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Original version: “wolde you bothe eate your cake, and have your cake?” Strange spelling attributed to the fact that this is the end of the spoken middle English period.

This is why we da best.

Yeah GG, sorry I didn’t stay for the awards thing, my ride had to go. I look forward to playing you some more. You know about these two right?

I MIGHT be able to go to the Lucky’s tourney. Depends on how my funds for Final Round are looking after this week.

But until then, what am I supposed to do with all this [media=youtube]NwTsZHGQ6FE"[/media]??
