RIP Billy Mays and X3O...MD/VA post X3O gathering thread

Sup guys, new to the MD scene. I used to live Rockville but had no idea that there was a fighting game scene.

Having a gathering at my place on August 1st. X30 is dead, I think, for now. But someone posted something recently about a new place to play. Have to see how it works out.

And DAMMIT! I was lazy with signing up for the Scion tournament and now it’s closed. :frowning: I may show anyway, just to chill. Or maybe they will have tickets at the door as well? One can only hope.

I was kind of hoping the same thing. Really want to get in on this action.

EDIT: I went ahead and called them and they will be selling tickets at the door for 15 bucks or you can order a ticket online for 11.

Well, the website isn’t allowing you to sign up any more…

Hopefully they have some at the door.

Yo can someone PM me the info on the BBQ?

**Door price is $15 if space is still available. Tickets are limited and only required to participate in the tournament.

Thats from the website, you should be good raven. I also procrastinated too so i guess ill be paying the $15 aswell.

Hope so. Think I will go regardless if they let me play or not. Cheer on the people from here that’s going.

Alright, since it’s less than a week away, need to hash out some details regarding the BBQ. What time is good for you guys? I’m think earlier in the afternoon, since we are going to be eating and drinking. Also, feel free to bring whatever systems and games you want too. As we found out last time, my second TV does NOT do HD, so may bring a monitor if you got one. Also, I have SF4, will have MvC2, possibly KoFXII, Garou, KoF 98UM. No BB, it got broke (long story :().

So let me know what you guys think. Also, would like to get a least somewhat of a list together of who may be attending, so I know how much food to get.

Oooo KOF12 I wanna try it. Too bad it looks like it won’t become anything since even people who like KOF say the game is shit, meh.

I’ma try and make this on August 1st. I’ll bring a ps2 copy of 3s (:amazed:) If anyone is down with playing it cuz the new games are boring to me, :rofl:.

yum BBQ

really appreciate the house offering raven, if i drive down there, i will bring my xbox and my games ( bb,sf4,mvc2 and so on.) if i have to take the metro then i will unfortunately be unable to bring anything, cuz it’ll take like 2hrs to get there already and the metro scares me >_>. lol ill try and donate something tho cuz Thats WHAT I DO!.

Hey Raven, I’ll hit you on Live for details, but count me in. I thought my concert was Sat but it’s Thursday. If you need some cash for the event I will put it.

I can bring Xbox with SF4, VF5(I know, I know…) and more than likely KoF12 (maybe?!). I need to get some game-time in with my Rose now that I dropped 'Rog.

Ill bring in a ps2, to use with that tv that didnt like the 360/PS3

And although we dont have that supergun, we can still run an emulator for that

                                             KARNOV'S REVENGE

go MD for winning that at evo

I’m trying to meet players in the area for games also. I got KOF12 it is crap I’m just gonna wait for MvC2 on wednesday xbox live arcade. Hit me on live for any info or if anything is coming up thanks. guys.

Sup DMV, I’m new to the scene as well but im trying to get into it and meet the local players. I live in fairfax now, orginally from alexandria/arlington though.

Anyways, is there confirmation on whether or not we can purchase tickets at the door at the scion tourney?

Also @ raven, can anyone come to this bbq of yours?

Cool, sounds good man. Hope you can make it.

No need to lug your shit on the Metro man, that’s gotta suck. Feel free to bring whatever if you do drive.

Sounds good man, hope you can make it.

Not sure about the tickets. Think I will just show up at the door and see what happens.

And yea, feel free to swing through man.

i just looked at the map

WHY IS IT SO CLOSE TO MY HOUSE, SHIT I SHOULD COME

and while we’re there there this good place to eat

ok so it looks like i’ll be driving down there, so add on more xbox360 and a bunch more fighting games. i also might bring a small tv i have. its small and non-HD but its one more set-up i guess. Let me know what you guys think so i know what to bring.

btw, if anyone wants to take advantage of this opportunity

Gamestop is having a pretty cool sale, games like sf4 is going for only $20. that link has more info

GOTTA GIT DAT.

yeah I should be able to head out for the bbq or something. i’m itching for some games regardless of what it is!

Quick question. Does anyone that is coming to the BBQ happen to have a PS2? And if so, does anyone have a stick for it? I’m tempted to go buy CvS2 for the PS2 (as long as Gamestop didn’t lie to me and they actually have it tomorrow), but I don’t own a PS2 or a PS2 compatible stick. So just thought I would ask before I plop down the cash.

i have a ps2 and mvc2, capcom fighting evolution, 3rd strike, and cvs2 for it. no ps2 stick tho srry? Im sure a bunch of people here do tho, so i can bring that and someone can bring the sticks?

Also, i reall ylike cvs2, but im really bad. i want to learn some good sakura, maybe bison, and most likely chun. Are there any top cvs2 players who use sakura or chun? i wanna see some matches with someone using those chars.

You bring that, I can hunt down a stick, and I’m pretty sure I would nominate you Hero for the day or something, lol.
