Just you and Sal? Did we get the word on the 22nd yet>?

Sofa_King · November 11, 2011, 9:21am

Was trying to see if there was a carpool or something happening from RDU earlier this week. If no one’s really going then I’ll probably just end up practicing Tekken and visit Ling’s place afterwards.

If I can get gas money off you, you can come with me and Duo. Also need you guys to meet me at my place, I ain’t no Demo bus.

Also… Choco vs Firebrand in a fighting game… what the fuck. Also shout outs to goblin Sagat:

looks like I may be out for Charlotte but I’ll still be at EZ for most of the Ranbat anyway.

Spooty_Whiteboy · November 11, 2011, 2:59pm

Wait, why would Winston and Greensboro have their own scenes? They are like half an hour apart.

I know I don’t keep up with the NC scene, but that just seems wrong.

Wright’s Turnabout mode lasts 20 in-game seconds. You could probably spam his assist the entire match without it running out.

You tell me I was just asking questions. But from what I understand now that a guy who lurks added me to the Triad FG group its the Triad, the Triangle and Charlotte?

Smokin_Jo · November 11, 2011, 3:08pm

crazy… Sal-T Thursday at EZ was fun. Just me, Nathan and Raf. Sorry for my bad MBAA performance. I was playing on a pad,so I could not land my combos that well. Still gotta order new PS2. Sticks.4 days of gaming, and rolling right into UMVC3 next week. Shit I’m gonna be burned out!!

@ Alice Chan, we can set some thing up for the 22nd.Lets talk about it at EZ.

Azn_Boy · November 11, 2011, 7:18pm

Winston has a scene?

Corner-Trap · November 11, 2011, 7:59pm

Was deleting random stuff off my hard drive and found these old avatars I used to use on SRK back in like 07.

Nameda · November 11, 2011, 8:23pm

It starts at 1, and I ned to be there early to learn how to camera in Spec Mode.

New addition to the stream schedule: I will have a copy of UMvC3 Monday night at midnight, and will start messing with the new characters while taking questions from stream on just about anything about it, followed by getting online and taking some people to court.

We might have to do two separate carpools then cause the rest of us were planning on staying at Tom’s for the night.

Strange Matter again? I guess it won’t be so bad in the fall though.

Porter · November 11, 2011, 9:51pm

come on and jam

Sofa_King · November 11, 2011, 10:12pm

Thanks, but I think I’m gonna spend Saturday practicing up and prepare for EZ instead throughout the week. Been too much of a pot whore the past few tournaments so I think it’ll be better for me to sit this one out. Again, thanks.

Renegade · November 11, 2011, 10:22pm

we’re also only doing the 2 games, not to mention we’re not expecting 140+ people, ya know.

gamewizard108 · November 12, 2011, 12:09am

winston doesn’t really have a scene. everybody in the triad just goes to greensboro to play.

Orochi_Negro · November 12, 2011, 1:45am

I already sent out the appropriate texts but there are a few people whos number I do not have that I can only reach up here.

Heres the update:

Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 was not included in today’s shipment. Skyrim took priority. There was an option for Saturday shipping, but the cost wouldnt have been justified considering that I would have had to order a set amount of copies (20) and pay the shipping price of FedEx overnight for a roughly 12lb package from California. But I did make an order today that will be in Monday afternoon. I know most people will opt to now wait until street date, and I apologize for the inconvenience. Its just not cost effective considering I pay the full costs up front and then get paid on the back end by you guys (Bryce is the ONLY person whos paid before hand) I actually prefer it that way just in case a situation like this arises. But I most definitely tried. This is the first release ive had this much trouble getting hard copies early, and ive gotten EVERY major fighter dating back to Tekken 5 on PS2 pre-street. Those who have gotten games from me before know I will do all I can to make sure they are satisfied at the end of the day though. So just like I did with vanilla MvC3, once I get my games I will be making calls and those who are still in can expect me to be making deliveries. Or like we did with Super Street Fighter IV we can find a meet point and have a session. Once again I apologize for not being able to “feed the need” like I normally do, but dont let that deter you from doing business in the future.

The next major fighter I will be doing this for is Soul Calibur V or KoFXII (only if there was enough interest though) so please let me know when the time comes.

Thanks!

Shit happens, it’s out of our hands, don’t stress it man.

I’ve got skyrim to keep me busy this weekend. I want to go to RESE but living in the middle of NC is proving to be somewhat depressing as far as fighting game stuff goes.

Caveman · November 12, 2011, 4:54am

Thanks for the update Demo. I dont think anyone can doubt your efforts with this sort of thing. You have always been on point with your game obtaining skills going back before tekken 5 even. I remember getting my tekken 4 burns from you doing the knife swap trick on my old ass ps2 and being grateful then, lol. With that info, though, I am probably going to wait until street date to get a discount or three.
