Rally Point: Gameworks

It’s not automatic. After you confirm your account, you get another email within 24 hours that contains a link to a coupon. Click on it and print it out, then bring it in to GW and redeem it with the card you registered.

No problem doing this, and thank you for the information. But its been 2 days now, any ideas?

Check your junk mail maybe, mine took a out 24 hours.

I would check your junk mail, I got mine almost exactly 24 hours later.

GG’s to the huge crowd at tekken tonight. Also good meeting you and GG’s to Mickey D, as well as that asian dude w/ glasses & generally beer that I;ve been facing off with every late afternoon/evening these past days, Ive learned so much about that matchup cuz of you. :looney:

Adam : Ryu
Xin: Claw

Those are the two asians with glasses haha

but yup gg to all that I faced tonight.

P.S You guys should learn how to Play Derby Owner Club (Horse Racing Game upstairs) that shit is addicting haha :woot::tup:

How does that game work? I am curious about it cus it looks tight.

Step 1 pick a male horse with majority stats of circles

Step 2 pick a female horse with majority stats of circles

Step 3 watch them run to a field and make a horse baby

Step 4 name your horse

Step 5 pick out costume

Step 6 train your horse to level up the following stats

-start
-corner
-out of the box
-competing
-tenacious
-spurt

There are 3 different kind of training games

T1 - reach the goal at the estimated time
T2 - reach the goal with the ideal finish “dead heat” aka photofinish
T3 - Pool Training a game where the bar goes from left to right and you want to stop in the red zone

Step 7 feed your horse depending on if you did good on the training or not.
If you get “Cool!” result you get good food stats usually goes up 3 or 4 points
If you get “Good” result you get ok food stats usually goes up 1 or 2 points
If you get “Great!” result you get the green salad if you do “dead heat” goes up 6-8 points
And the sugar cube if you hit the specific time goes up 14-16 points

Step 8 race your horse now here’s the tricky part at the beginning of the race after you hear the
Gunshot/gate open you hit the Whip button if done correctly you get a perfect on your
Screen now depending on what type of horse is you whip at the following…

FRONT RUNNER - Whip over and over again quick at the beginning until “perfect” is gone
From there you want to watch on the screen and whip once in a steady pace
Aka (whip)…(whip)…(whip)…now if you look on the big screen and it doesnt
Seem like you’re horse is moving when you whip do a double or triple whip
To get the horse back on track (whip).(whip).(whip)then it should gain speed
Then go back to the original whip game and reapeat until your whipping
Effectiveness is low then you conserve your whipping power and whip when you
Feel like you’re about to get passed up.
Only use FR when tracks are 2000m and lower otherwise they get smashed
Because as a FR once you’re in the lead…stay in lead

START DASH - Worse kind of horse type to get i dont mess with it so i can’t help haha

LAST SPURT - Possibly the best type of Horse you can basically whip it from the middle point of
The race til the end…and of course at the beginning when the gate open you whip to
Get perfect but instead of whipping quick like front runner just tap whip 1 or 2 times
Since you want to keep all your whipping power til the last half of the race as for
Whipping tactics I just usually whip 3 times around 12-1400m to jump start it and
Do (whip)…(whip)…(whip whip)… And repeat these horse are the best for short
Track and long tracks 3200m.

STRETCH RUNNER - same as last spurt but you want to start whipping around 6-800m because
Because these horses are those comeback from behind horses

Step 9 - after the race you have 4 choices to “do or say to the horse” to enhance relationship

Haha didn’t realize I was going to make a Mini Guide…the game is not as complex as I made it seem but if you guys get the chance to play it I am willing to get you guys started haha Its a dope game I’m usually up there when I lose a couple rounds of SF or Tekken you can find me Thai vega up there playing

P.S sorry about no Puncuations

Do you get a card for it or something?

yeah its pretty nifty haha

Jesus Penis! Never thought id read the pixelated Horsemans’ Bible on SRK!

I’ll give $20 to whomever gets Trace/ICD3 to play this game!!!

So I don’t really play Tekken at all, but I played quite a few games yesterday since it’s the only fighting game there I don’t own…with extra characters. Is Bob really as easy mode as he felt to me? I can’t believe the stuff I got off with him…with just a few simple commands.

Anyone going to GW tonight? Thinking about going over at 8pm if there’s gonna be people there.

85% going to be there tonight round 6:30ish

there’s a possibility of swinging by there

Anyone gonna be there earlier in the day tomorrow? I’d like to get some games in @ GW before headin to a session that night =/

Gameworks tonight fellas, Tekken 6 action for sure.

My conclusion on gameworks:

So here’s the thing, I went to gameworks today in the early afternoon to get some practice and possibly casuals. Now, let me first start by saying, that I’ve been inclined to go to Gameworks more often so I can start playing more people with different play styles. With that, I always like to get in games with the stronger players such as Adam, Jason, LTB, etc.

Every time that I’ve hit up gameworks for some “practice” I’m ALWAYS disappointed. Today I was a bit upset as my short button was broke (on the 1p side), and this guy kept throwing me (obviously un’techable). I told him that he was being cheap, as everyone knew that I wasn’t able to break throws…now you’d THINK that this would be a sign as…"Don’t STOP throwing me in general, just don’t throw me 3 times a round (totall’ing out to 40%)).

All in all, with the button being broken and in addition to other reasons (such as a choppy joystick, and the buttons that don’t respond very well), I don’t think I’ll be hittin up gameworks for practicing any more.

It sucks because I know Nate and Kervin want to keep those cab’s good, but the worst part about it is the whole idea of “if it works, we’re good!” The tech’s do a GREAT job, but the establishment…man, it’s a damn shame.

i feel you!

Thats dissapointing to hear mickey. I’m most likely gonna be going back at least a few more times as I have money on a card that I should use. Sloppy controls ruin the competitive flow of the game.
