Thats cool. Southpoint Mall is off of I - 40. Exit 276(Fayetteville Rd.) I believe. Gas money shouldn’t be a problem but I’ll check that come Thursday just to be sure.
Count me in for Friday then. Where are we meeting up in Cary? I get off at 5:30.
I get off at 6.

You can meet me at my job, we can pick everyone up then go to EZ. We drop off old man doom on the way back then go to my car at my job, you go home and I drop everyone else off.

I can meet at your place pick you up, then everyone else and on the way back drop everyone off.
We get to EZ faster with option #1 since you get off earlier then me. Let me know which you want to do or if you have some other idea.
Things are just heating up at EZ. Cant wait for the 21st
If anything it’ll be the first time since NEC XI that I’ve actually played MBAA so that’s a plus.
@Jos: Sent you a PM.
Hopefully my dad will be able to drop me off at EZ but if someone is willing to carpool me PM me please
Why doesn’t Jon just pick up the 3 players from NCSU then meet Josiah at his job since it will essentially take up 30 minutes anyways and you’ll be able to leave immediately.
Apparently trolling is banned from Evo sanctioned events:
Shoryuken - EVO Ruling Regarding Power Up 2011
I feel they’re making the situation a bit too black and white. Justin is known for being random at times and in most cases it has paid off. Whose to say that he wasn’t just doing another random decision to throw his opponent off like he always does, why is it immediately assumed that he’s throwing the match and should be penalized for it. Come on the dude has ran teams like Hsien-Ko/Thor/Chris who he doesn’t understand well either but still placed well with. I guess I’m reading too much into it because I have a lot of fun picking random characters and it isn’t like I’m trying to lose it’s just how I have fun, so if I was a top players and got penalized for that it would feel as if I was punished for enjoying the game. Who knows maybe Justin did throw the match, but can we make a conclusive statement off of that one instance?
Although I do agree with not changing the brackets once they’re seeded, that’s a clear loss of integrity there unlike the previous situation concerning Justin.
EVO Rule #1344: If you’re trolling, you better win
The issue is not with the characters he chose, but that he clearly had no idea how to use them. He was missing very simple hit confirms into supers with skrull consistently. I think this is the only point EVO Management should have made.
The stuff about him playing phoenix on point is not fair to say at all. Who cares if its widely regarded as a bad strategy. It’s what he chose to do. It’s not like he didn’t try to win with that team (and went 1-1) and then switch to his BEST team right after that for the remainder of the match.
The skrull play was very suspicious but I don’t think he should have been punished for it, like you said no conclusive evidence.
I agree. Also, that fact that they’re Justin’s seed points to do with what he wants (if he was throwing it). All he had to do was point to his SSF4 match against Air where he ended up picking Dan and actually doing really well. Or maybe justin was scared that Noel Brown was going to punch him in the face, and he gave him the match? who knows…
So… who’s all riding to EZ in the triangle? this page is a cluster…
My car is out of commission atm so I’m driving my girlfriends car for a few days till it gets fixed, so it might be better to do option 2. I can get you gas money though.
I think it has to do with how the human brain recognizes what it reads just like how most of the time you won’t consciously read the the and skip the second. I am filling in what is not there. Sorry man lol
Get hype
My car is myself, two srk lurkers (Muaythai who makes custom sticks, and Shotty), and two new guys. One of which i’ve been training in Tekken about 5-10 hours a week for the past month.
So basically it looks like your picking up Jon, Brandino, Kris and Aznboy right?
ill go in on gas to for sure
Do you know if Josiah is able to take you or are we doing a third carpool? I know my car is only a five seater but from the forum posts it looks like he may or may not be full depending on who definitely is going.
Well Jon, Looks like I won’t be able to make it tonight. If anybody is interested I’ll at the very worst be having a mini-session tomorrow night. Will probably start up around 7 pm. I’ll warn you that it’ll be a pretty MvC3 heavy session. Just PM me if you need an address.
So basically we have 2 full carpools from the triangle area coming down to EZ this Friday but there are still players from that area who want to come, real talk set up a third carpool.
EDIT:
Seems like I’ll definitely have to show to EZ early on Friday to setup all the stations. I"m thinking of putting 3 setups in the front for MvC3, 3 setups in the back for SSF4, 2 setups in the middle for AH3, 1 setup in the middle for T6, and 1 setup in the middle that will rotate the poverty games. If I remember correctly we have about 8 setups at the venue and I think the AH3 and T6 players will bring their own setups so we’ll have enough to go around.
Yup, that’s fine.
Once we get the whole, who’s driving thing going, etc. I’ll PM my contacts.
Though I guess the fastest way to get everyone from NCSU is to pick us up from Kris’ place. So I’ll just walk there or something.
Have fun this weekend guys, I have to study so I can murder my Calc exam on Monday. After that, I’ll definitely be available for more sessions.
Yea just for the record, Myself and Rob are also bringing two so in total you can expect 2 tvs + 2 systems from us. I also heard talk about Lucerne also bringing one but that was just what Rob said and it might not be confirmed that he will show.
Considering Brandino is going to be staying with Kris then if all three of you are in the same location it would save much time.
