Orlando Thread: We Want More Dive Kicks!

The turn out was decent for a sunday night tournament, next time i’ll plan out my evening better so i can make it on time to compete.

@Tony: the last exorcism got 70% approval, so I guess people liked it. except for me and the 4 other people that I went with.

looking forward to some meet ups and tourneys in the next couple of weeks.

i’ll be on PSN tonight for anyone that wants to get some BB games in. Cheers!

Still lookin to get some games in hopefully today. Anyone hostin, let me know.

Fun stuff at Rocky’s last night. There were 2 games I completely threw away (against Brett especially). I can’t believe my U2 came out TWICE instead of my IAT. That was definitely a Morton’s moment for me (at my execution, certainly not @ Brett’s Honda, which has gotten very nice). 5-4 is unacceptable :confused:

The best thing of the night though was the resurgence of Casanova John’s confidence. I almost gotcha dude! See what happens when you stick with a character above low-mid tier? lol — great job, buddy.

To everybody else — good shit. Look forward to the next one. Jebailey — let’s give their Monday night Hold’em a shot sometime (not tonight though). I’m sure we can talk those guys into playing for small amounts, $20-40.

Dro - sorry I counterpicked your ‘Buki lol, you had my Sim downloaded in ONE game. Pretty impressive since I was trying to switch it up a lil’ bit. We live close, so we’ll get some more games in for sure.

Also, to anybody who doesn’t know, Torrin paid for his $5 entry fee with 3 singles, and $2 worth of coins. No joke. Lol I thought it was April 1st in that bitch for a minute. Shusty ftw

What’s going on with Ranbats? I know Torrin mentioned a few pages back about moving it to Fridays but that’s all I heard. Is it still at Gamer’s Inc/PNT? What time?

Damn, I’m disappointed that I didn’t make this one. It sounds like everyone had a good time. I ended up going bowling last night with some friends. Drunk bowling is a lot of fun. I’ll try to make it next time.

I don’t know what anyone is doing tonight, but today is Beer 30 at Orlando Brewing. It’s a real cool spot, they brew their own organic beer. Every 30th of the month is $2 beers all day. If you get there by 6 you can get a tour of the brewery. I try to go every time, though I’m not sure if I’ll be going today. I’ll be working late all week. Just giving you a heads up in case any body was interested.

That’s the spot, dude! I went last month for the FIRST time ever (shocking, I know). I like how they don’t have cold glasses (which detracts from organic beer — trust me). I didn’t make the tour in time, but our bartender was pretty damn hot, so none of us minded. I tried all kinds of brews there, as it was my homey’s bday, and my favorite was the Eagle Stout. Good stuff, good stuff. Dude, I thought those jars of ‘bean-like things’ on the tables were like… snacks or whatever… and I ate a few. Turns out they’re just there for decoration LOL. I broke a tooth I think. Anyways, my only gripe about the joint is its VERY ODD location — it’s back by a junkyard in an industrial area. Extremely odd place to get a drink… but alas, I’m a fan.

You gotta really good sim I just so happen to have a freind that plays him on xbl so I have so expierence with him. IMO you gotta use more of those teleportation tricks he has. U had a really nice set up for u2 in one of our matches but you just keep ibuki out if you keep her outside cuz onc I get in I can do tons of damage.

Lots of “alien” matchups last night lol a really nice sakura, 2 tough hondas, ect.

Lmao my gf: “ewwwwwwwww that guy is sooo cocky” speaking Bout jebaily lol

Bison rapes Ibuki. You just gotta play like you own the place. Walk up and have no fear; s.HK and s.MK your way to victory! There’s not a lot Ibuki can do if you’re on the offensive.

Do I need to bring back the salt tier list? Who do you play now, Torrin? I remember you being in character limbo.

Sup Jimi? :slight_smile: Hope shit is going good out there.

@ Dro, thanks man! Your iBuki is also very nice. You should take Torrin up on his offer to show you some iBuki tricks, the dude has put some serious work in (check out his blogs which have a lot of detail about how to improve your iBuki offense).

Also, regarding your girl’s quote… my girlfriend’s best friend came in last night (Jebailey lovingly referred to her as Thunder Thighs), and she looked at Jebailey (who went to church before the tourney) and Torrin (who came straight from work) — and she said:

“Wow… are these guys seriously dressed up for a fighting game tournament???”

Ell Oh Ell :lol:

I dress up for some FG tourneys. :lol:
To be fair, this past tourney I went to I actually saw some good looking chicks. I wasn’t strictly SSFIV/Melee/Brawl though.

FIXED!

And LOL at your friend Tony. Even worse was the Rocky’s owners Fiancee picking on me for playing games at all lol.

Fair warning to all concerned: I can now do Bang’s Radical Super Crash -> Daifunka on a TE with ~90% consistency. A few more days of combo training and I’ll bring him out to Nestor’s or something to try him on live targets. In the meantime, I think I will demonstrate humility by having my brother make me a commemorative avatar and working on my Juicebox dance.

I look forward to all of that, considering how lame tager mirrors are. Actually, all mirrors are lame

I don’t know, I doubt Jebailey thinks the mirror he stares in for 4 1/2 hours a day is lame.

Have I mentioned lately that I hate the Bang mirror? Because I do. Especially when dude does the 4x Radical Super Crash --> Taunt combo. Turns out that one is super effective against me.

@Ben Reed: You changed your Bison avatar, you are now dead to me. that is all.

Oh shit. We got the Bang brothers on board now.

@Pez, you were there last month? I was too. That was the largest I’ve ever seen it. It was the first time the 30th fell on a Friday. It was crazy. The location is out there, but remember it is a brewery that just happens to have a bar

Yeah. SSF4 and WoW. Pretty much it.

I agree. I’ve always associated you with all things Bison.

Thanks for the heads up man :slight_smile: I’m a big moaner when it comes to PG-13 :confused: That means almost no female nudity and minimal explicit gore. I’m a fan of both lol… but then again, those aren’t really too big of a part of these movies (which lean more towards psychological scare tactics than cheap scare tactics)

Speaking of this style of movie, I just borrowed The Exorcism of Emily Rose last night lol. I have not yet seen it, but hear it’s good.

In movie news… MACHETE IS OUT FRIDAY!
