State guys and Brent, If I don’t already have your phone no.'s pm them to me. I don’t know when I’m going to head out to Jon’s but I’m going to head out to Jon’s. Since all of you are somewhat on the way, I don’t mind making a couple of stops.
Rumor has it that Geese isn’t dead in the KOFXIII storyline. Confirm or Deny?
To EVERYBODY in the Raleigh area there are weekly ranbats at Champs. The games are AE and UMvC3, but there’s talk of getting in KOF soon. I’m pretty sure once someone puts up a setup of KOF and showcase it they’ll start having it ever week because the game’s that good. Tournament starts at 6:30 and afterwards its casuals. Plus you get discounts from stuff at Champs.
I respect what Brian is doing in Charolette with ReSe and what Will has done with EZ, but Raleigh has something as well. It is in the middle of the week and Durham’s Gamefrog, which isn’t too far from Raleigh, is on Saturdays so you have a weekend option as well. Not saying totally neglect ReSe and/or EZ, but if you’re in the RDU area please support things happening in your area.
Same here bro, besides me playing UMvC3. I’m trying to get into it, but only bit by bit. Mainly I’m into KOF and Tekken, but with the weekly ranbats at Champs I may try a little harder since I want to start going out there more often now. I plan on heading out there this coming up Wednesday, so if you guys need a ride just hit me up. I stay right up the street from State, so I can swing by and pick you guys up. Since you’re so close you don’t even have to worry about gas.
Geese hasn’t ever been dead in KOF, only in the main SNK storyline.
I played some guy named “Shadow Khan SRK” on live, I think his name is “Just FokuZ” on here. Says he lives in charlotte. Come out to the ranbats on wednesdays and ReSe tournaments.
West just mad that people found out his real name is Percival. Exposed.
How are the TVs at champs and what consoles?
Hey, thanks for the responses and evens offers for rides already haha. School is starting back on monday so not everyone is back in town yet. I gotta talk to the rest of the guys, but I’ll get back tomorrow or Sunday if the rides are still available :).
Are you guys talking about Champs, like, the athletic store? What’s the address?
EZ Fridays was godlike. Just got home. See you guys on the 28th for the tournament and gamefrog on the 21st.
Champps sports I think it’s called. It’s at triangle town center mall. It’s a restaurant that allows like a section for the tournaments. Off of capital blvd.
It was a lot of fun last night, with a good turnout of around 20+ players for a weekly. We’re playing again today for anyone whose looking for some games. Here are the results from last night:

I guess you didn’t get the announcement about GF closing lol. Fear not, I’m planning on doing some market research this coming week for a spot we could host Raleigh tournaments. GONNA CARRY THIS SCENE ON MY GOD DAMN BACK IF I HAVE TO!
Also if tax returns are good to me this year, I’m gonna snag a good laptop and some streaming equipment if I decide to run this stuff. That streaming guide on the front page was useful.
So apparently Mr. Jibbs started dat dere facebook group for Fayetteville players. I assume since I can only make it out to like one tournament per every 17 months is why I haven’t been added.
If you do decide to invite/add me to the group, my real name is Mikaul McDermid.
No more Durham tournaments?
From what was said in the gamefrog tournament thread, yeah. Gamefrog is closing down, so if there are Durham tournaments then they’ll have to be somewhere else. I figure with GF closing and EZ possibly too once Will leaves, nows the time to get something started.

Haven’t posted here in a little bit but I’m finally out of the Holiday weeds so to speak. My birthday is coming up next week and I’ll be holding a session on Tuesday night. Wanna get some UMvC3 training in since there’s a decent shot I can make that Charlotte tourney that is if its on the 14th. But anyways thats the plan guys.
Hey guys Lucerne here with the ghetto name reset. I’m pretty well setup in the GSO now so if anyone knows where the facebook/uncg or whatever crews meetup/has some links for me lets get the pm’s started. I’m working, got my new place, etc, sorry for vanishing like that but I had to go ghost mode in order to get my shit setup.
I know Gamewizard is around at least and I feel like playing some KOF this weekend
EZ is completely fine, last night we were helping the new TO learn how to run tournaments and it was pretty smooth plus a ton of people are helping him out. Although we need a solid RDU location. I can help you out with this a bit funds/streaming/other technical stuff so i’m sure if yourself, a few others and I worked together we could make it work. We just need to support that shit because if we don’t then the people will just drop us and nothing will get done, which from there depending on the location we HAVE to get CRTs or evo monitors stuff like that because if people are like oh it’s all laggy then that will be a bad reputation.
I’m up to help you out Jon. I was looking for venues a while back myself, most places in my immediate area are pretty expensive though. I could go in on your venue or help run things otherwise.
Boss, good to see everyone coming together. Do you guys know of any good locations off the top of your head? If not I’ma just google game cafes and other places and drive around lol
I feel like game cafes might be good or if we could do what Brian does and just rent hotel conference rooms that works too. The only issue with hotel conference rooms is the price vs how many people we can get to come out which is always an iffy thing with NC. Literally the ONLY venue I can think of is what I had brought up before and that’s RUAGamer because it’s big, 24/7 (I think they only close like a few days during the actual week itself not friday/sat/sun) and I feel they might work with us as long as we can show them in some way our numbers or support and of course this is assuming people in RDU are actually going to support the RDU scene since work/school/economy is affecting many of us.
As far as money goes, I definitely don’t mind pitching in. These things are definitely community efforts outside of the few well endowed individuals who have the money to do it almost alone and even then they often get sponsors anyway so it’s not even entirely on them.
yo man i wanna go so bad but i dont have a car… i live in rocky mount
