OLD UIUC 2011 Thread

I vote 3s.

=)

Just for Mike:

M. Bison:
Significant improvements. Damage was nerfed a bit but nerfs all around to Sagat and Ryu help a lot and his Ultra 2 is great. Full screen. Looks like El Fuerte’s but has different properties, it’s faster, and actually useful. Can be done on reaction against fireballs and crosses up. Can be jumped out of however. It’s not a throw, it’s a hit (similar to his Head Stomp) so it can be blocked. This is especially good against Shotokan characters. Once he has Ultra it shuts down most fireball games and it hits hard enough to be scary. Psycho Crusher has a full body hitbox, it’s much faster and it does more damage. Possibly might be higher ranked than Cody. Not top 5, but definitely going up in tiers.

I’m gonna have to vote third strike, even though i’m not that great. Its really fun to watch though, i think.

Also, what time are you gonna be picking us up?

Im not sure. It kinda depends on when we can come over to Brian’s place.

Brian just texted 7.

Be over to pick you two up at 6:50ish

Patric I guess i am just picking up you in a little bit.

Great game everyone tonight!

Ranbat 1.0 Results!

SF4

  1. Humbag (Balrog)
  2. Kayloud (Akuma)
  3. Flexo (Dictator/Guile)
  4. Tuboware (Blanka)

TvC Single Elim

  1. Flexo
  2. Dont know

Did it run smooth and everything?? Also lol @ Tvc results

lol the TvC bracket was so dumb the four people that actually knew what they were doing we’re all in the same side of the bracket and since it was single elimination it ended up being really dumb.

SF4 ran pretty well.

Had 12 people and some really nice hype matches.

Anyone have complete results? So i can get the points distributed.

Also Since I am going to be gone not next weekend but the weekend after (16th etc) I say we have 1.1 next friday.

But its up to everyone. Keep doing weekly tournaments along with game nights or alternate? I vote having a lil tourny like we did every night.

I have full results as well as points saved on my computer. TvC didnt save. For whatever reason, right when I clicked to finish the bracket up, the program crashed. it was dumb as all hell, and very sad. Whatever though, not much I can do about it. Anyways…

Above is the current point standing and the rankings from last night. I wont do a seperate section for total points because we only had one RanBat, so not really a point to do that. In the future I will though.

As far as the next RanBat goes, when we ran the practice RanBat last week, we all decided to do them bi-weekly. I don’t know if people were still down for that or not, but that’s what I’d like to see.

But I’d say that you should put up a poll to vote on that, James. The only thing about doing it next week again, is that I’m sure some people wanna just chill out and play games on occasion, and not just play tournaments all the time. And also, I think it would be much better and easier to have set dates for RanBats, like bi-weekly or monthly, so people know when they are coming. And this is coming from a guy who wont be able to make game night for 4 weeks in a row at a time, so that means if we do them bi-weekly, I’m going to miss 2 ranbats every other month because of my work schedule. So yea, I say we make them bi-weekly to have some regularity to them. But that’s just me, I’d like to know how everyone else feels too.

Also, how long before we end a season for the RanBats? I was thinking 6 RanBats would be a good sized season (about 3 months) before we started a new season. So in other words, we go up to RanBat 1.5, and then maybe for RanBat 1.6 (which would be the 7th RanBat because we started at 1.0), we have a mini tournament for the top 8 points leaders at the end of the season to top it off, and then start over again 2 weeks later. What does everyone else think?

brock if the program crashed it should have saved as a temporary file. chances are its gone now tho.

Hey when were the match videos from last week and this week gunna get uploaded?

GGs to everyone I played. Mike I’m still thinking about that ramen drooool

wait shouldnt 5th and 7th places get the same amount of points?

balrog has a 3 frame safe jump setup?! just found out <_< damn thats beast

Yep.

Decent setup for it as well.

Probably, I’ll redo it now. LoLz. I threw it up real quickly, but that does make sense.

Also, what was everyones thoughts on what to do next Friday? I am down to have RanBat 1.1 if everyone else is, to help out James. We could just go with another RanBat this upcoming Friday, then go bi-weekly from there. Sound good?

AND BIG UPS TO CAPCOM FOR GIVING US ARCADE SSF4!! DAIGO AINT GONNA BE LEFT OUT FOR TOO LONG! GET READY EVO!

Prepare to see Japanese Ibukis, Dudleys and Juris.

shudders

As far as the next ranbat, its up to everyone else when the next should be.

All I know is that April 30th is when the really fun ranbats begin!

Im at the McDonalds on Cunningham using the WiFi to play GGPO if anyone wants to roll through here and play some ST, 3s, Puzzle Fighter, Garou, or any one game that’s playable on the GGPO Emulation, I’m down. I should be here for at least another couple of hours, so just hit me up on my celly or post on here to see if I’m still around. Just be sure to bring a stick if someone wants to stop by for some matches.

summer break needs to happen now…
