Yea they are getting much better, and as a result the salt is being turned up to the max. Should be a great Dragons event this thursday! Dee Jay and Sakura…T. Hawk killers?? Wakeup air Shinkuu ftw?? Yes my friends scrub tactics are highly effective! Inthesto nice to finally meet you and like that Honda. Maybe you shouldn’t retire him just yet.
just wondering what time you guys start tomorrow night? Also I can bring an extra stick if needed. I’m looking forward to this, my Abel is ready to get whooped.
if you play brawl/melee you can show up at like 6:30 and Tom will be there. Otherwise, most peeps will show up between 7 and 8. A couple of us should be arriving around 8:30 (or earlier is possible) after kickball. Don’t know when the ps3 setups will be arriving. who’s bringing what this week?
Good games last night at the salt mines. Maybe one day NewBlood will unlock the true power of Sakura’s U2 and figure out how to do the non anti-air version, but that day is a long way off.
I’ll try to show up tomorrow, probably around 7:30 PM. I can bring a 360 with SSF4 and T6, but I only have one stick, so somebody’s gonna need to bring another stick if we want to make use of it.
Lol, not bad for “Day One” Sakura. Her ultra 2 has another variation??? pfft…no such thing as a horizontal shinkuu when it comes to epic Sakura play. On a more serious note, I will be around 6:30 with a PS3 setup so we need another PS3/xbox. Can we get confirmation for atleast another xbox stick so inthesto can bring his gear?
Not sure why I am all of a sudden the only bringing stuff when everyone plays this game at home! I work too and drive most of the day and still pack my shit up and bring it so let’s not start being lazy bastards. After all you need something to plug those modded-out sticks into correct?
Anyway should be fun so those coming early can play me in some mvc2 or mark of the wolves. I also get down with tekken 6 and am always game. When the rest get there we start in on some SSF4 so get that last minute practice in!!
don’t be talking crap like Romes and I weren’t bringing our shit to the 5 dragons before you even were a part of it, whippersnapper. Ping is gonna bring his setup I thought so i told phil to bring a tv for him. this means we can have 2 ps3 setups and if inthesto is bringing his 360 then that’s 3 setups right there. should be good. i still wanna experience this whole MOTW stuff too.
i’m bringing a ps3 set up for blazblue and maybe ssfiv
Not pointing the finger at anyone in particular, just stating the reality of the last six weeks (3 straight Dragons events) in which setups have been at a premium; just voicing a concern before it becomes a bigger issue. Regardless of however long I have been a part of this I certainly have contributed a fair amount of effort to making sure people know about this and will continue to do so until we have a scene on par with Mass, so don’t take it personally (SaltMines is Tuesday remember =p). Thank you to those who are bringing setups tonight though it is certainly appreciated. Anyway Microsoft sucks and apparently MOTW is a 360 only download so its looking like that won’t be happening. So in its place you can all watch me play Rocket Knight adventures (shame on you if you haven’t played the Genesis original).
See ya’ll tonight and hopefully no one gets randomed out by my epic Sakura…just ask T. Hawk (buuuuuuurrrrrrrn!!!)
lol, you know i <3 you laurence. i figured the “whippersnapper” would have given that one away–the webitubes has a hard time interpreting sarcastic humour (that’s right, british spelling). i mean, who even knows where that word came from?
don’t fear the epic Sak, i swear that ultra only did like 200 damage.
and microsoft does suck… or perhaps sony sucks cause they made snk/snkplaymore/playmore, whoever hate them and that’s why the psn only gets crappy games like KoF99 or whatever. This does remind me, however, to finish my arcade emulation project on my laptop. Then I could just bring that and holy crap we’d have a lot of games to play.
This thread is getting salty.
I should be there tonight. Maybe 8:30ish. It sounds like we’re good for setups. Maybe some more BB going on tonight then there has been.
Looking forward to seeing some new faces. Hope you guys can make it!
And, NewBlood is playing Sakura? Pick a main, man!!!
I think this calls for Magical Drop 3 food matches.
Lol you need salt to keep the embers of competition burning!! Blank SUCKS!!! Pretty mad now ain’t ya?! Want to get in that training room and rip off those crispy links to perfection now too don’t ya Romes?! See that’s how far a little salt will travel and fortunately for you all I have a never ending stream of it to toss in your direction!
Yep im looking forward to seeing some real BB go down tonight…Maybe my scrub Ragna will make an appearance, unless I get scared off from Kraig Tager 720’s. As for my never ending search for a main Romes, that’s been going since SF4…Not in love with this roster as weird as that sounds, but I think I hit the jackpot with Dee Jay. Sakura and oddly enough Ken are really fun too. I think subconciously I am just biding time until MvC3 comes out.
correction =
It looks as though it may still be a july release in US. All those tournament edition sticks already starting shipping so I don’t think there’s any reason to push it back. get on that hype train. CHOO CHOO.
I can bring a 360 stick tonight (round 1 TE). Are we all set on setups?
it was nice meeting everyone, see you next time, maybe we’ll get a few more BB players.
gg’s to you kraig, sick tager.
thanks, man. those resets into 720 are the utmost in hilarity and awesomeness for me. Your mixups are really good though so you do a good job of locking me down. looking forward to playing again.
it was nice meeting everybody else too, lots of good times/food/and games. can’t wait for the next one.
I think I will get back to my BB training as well. Now that we have a small contingent gathering for it makes a bit of sense to actually practice it now. Good BB players are hard to come by hopefully those who play are part of forums in which we can get the word out to them to attend the next Dragons event.
Glad everyone had a good time especially the new faces in the crowd. Hopefully it was better than you expected and please continue to come and enjoy! Great street fighter last night I learned a lot and finally found a main! Hey-Now looking forward to seeing how your Abel progresses and gg last night. Kraig your Hawk is still a gigantic pain in the ass and I am sure you are happy to see your mix ups and tricks work on even more experienced SF players.
Lastly turning our attention to SaltMines on Tuesday, please let me know who is down to come by. I have room for more than one setup so if 3-4 BB players want to come through as well there will be room for you to do your thing also. As always we split food and beer expenses and play until 130-2am in the morning. Starts 6pm. Tuesday is a boring night for most so don’t be shy about posting up if you want to come by throughout the night. I would say 8-10 people max would be the limit.
i’m down
Wanted to say GGS and it was cool meeting you guys. Thanks for all the tips, I’ll definitely be back for more.
Oh yeah? I wasn’t there for that. Left too early! Who did you pick?
