PDX Weekly Tourney / Casuals

Jeromie I can’t get this stupid stick to work on my pc. When I go to the launcher I can’t mess with the buttons, and the in-game configuration is fine.

What do I do?

EDIT: When I click on controller settings on the launcher the stick says <Fixed>. WTF

That means the game “knows” what you have and that it doesn’t need any configuration so it kindly locks you out of being able to configure it.

Also…

BOOOM WHAT A FUCKING DAY YESTERDAY!!!
11 PEOPLE!! 3 STATIONS!! 3RD STRIKE ALPHA3 TEKKEN6 AND SF4 WERE PLAYED EN MASSE!! EVERYONE THREW AWAY THEIR GARBAGE! KRAMER PICTURES! SHIT TALKING! THIS IS WHAT ITS ALL ABOUT KIDS!!

It’s hard to stop the caps once you start, like how do I transition from yelling to normal speech without looking like a dumbass? Oh well, it seems like I have succeeded anyway. So yeah that was awesome, Angel did NOT bring wings and liquor but we managed to have a good time somehow. Pics up.

lol id take a picture and post it if i knew how, but i get greeted at the bottom of the stairs by that painting/poster every morning haha

le sigh
lol

Anything going on today?

I admit interest as well.

I would be up for something later tonight! Around 6 or 7 or so. Jeromie? Panda? Bueller?

We can go for a couple hours, until say 9:00

I desperately need a shave and a shower among other things. It’s about 6 now, by the time I got there it would be 9. Maybe next time >.<.

wish i had found out about this earlier… oh well.

It only got posted at 5:20 so it was like an hour ago =P.

well i meant i shoulda read about it earlier when you and panda first posted, but now that you mention it if Jermoie dident reply till an hour ago i guess it wouldent have made a difference lol.
guess i could still make it if anything is going on, is there? i should probably call i guess

Stop it!

…!.. (>.<) …!..
thanks again to travis and david for the job and SF tips, and to Jermoie for probly the last tuesday session.

Ja man, it’s fun to watch you improve and your out-of-nowhere Ryu knocking Panda out clean. Just keep practicing and remind me to record matches to play back later and talk about.

Was so not clean! Ugh!

Really was scary though, so patient. @_@ Very cool.

But yeah, thanks for havin’ us over again, always fun, hope we aren’t intrusive, lol. I’m trying to see what I can do about having people at my place, which would be neat, and take some pressure off ya.

I’m working in Downtown PDX now and I’ve got my own car to commute with so I’d be up for doing stuff after work if I know about it ahead of time and can convince my wife to let me work it out somehow.

Been rocking Dhalsim lately and I’m itching to get some exp in. I have a feeling he’ll be saying “Yoga suck” a lot until I get some some good matches in.

Never intrusive man, I enjoy the company. I would have had it planned out but I wanted to try to focus on schoolwork. So much for that.

To be honest I wish we could do this every night so I can learn more character matchups. It’s never fun to eat multiple losses due to ignorance, and the computer helps but not nearly enough.

My wife’s Birthday is this Saturday so I will probably knock the night off at 10:00 when she gets home unless for some wild reason she wants to hang out with all us nerds and fight.

I have a job tomorrow morning but after that I am free for casuals.

Next weekend I will be starting up the tourneys on Saturday with casuals on Friday. I will start signups in 8 man chunks and cap it at 24 with 8 playing every Saturday until we have our finalists who will duke it out for the top spot on the 4th week. If I do not get 24 signups I will drop it to 16 and do two weeks of tourney with one week of finals after. If anyone has a fundamental issue with this layout please let me know ASAP and I will do what i can.

It will look like this:
8 Players per tourney, top two go to finals.

Week 1 - Group One - 8 players, two finalists
Week 2 - Group Two - 8 players, two finalists
Week 3 - Group Three - 8 players, two finalists
Week 4 - Finals - 6 Finalists

In the event we get less players it will be two weeks of tourney and the third week of finals. If I only get 8 total, I will hold the matches and finals on the same day and post the results.

Since I know people are going to ask:
The extra two slots per week (I can house 10 players) can be filled with casuals, and the extra four slots on finals day can also be filled with casuals. This does not guarantee that casuals will be happening on Saturdays but if the matches are all squared away and there is time left then it’ll happen.

I think I have covered everything, please let me know if you see any gaping holes in my game plan here.

Sign me up! What time are the Friday casuals going to be happening at? I get off work around 5:30pm or so on Fridays and I can’t make it out on December 18th but I should be able to make it every other time as long as I’m not busy that day.

What time are the Saturday tournaments happening at also? Is it a all day thing?
