Rochester, NY Thread (Spring 04/05)

Hahaha…You guys are still alive ??/
I haven’t logged on in like 3 years…I thought the server might have already booted me…Wasup ?

!!wtf!! I don’t believe it!!

Hey, Omg!! I am very surprise to know that ppl still come by this thread one upon a time in…

Terrence, I sold your xbox for $39.33 + S&H on Ebay… and sorry about that!! but it was taking too much space in my house… I hope u learnded ur lesson, and get a Wii next time.

Anways, I really don’t play fighting games at all anymore, but once in a while I stop by Nam’s house to play some 3s…So if anybody is intersted in playing who I condider to be one of the best 3s players in rochester just message
me–> AIMme: limakm13.

Does anyone play tekken dr in rochester or even tekken 5?

Nam? As in, Nam Ngo?

P.S. I’ve started trying to pick up GGX/ again (Ino this time), if anyone’s interested. Need to sharpen up for AC, so if anyone is around, SPEAK UP! D:

Yay, that’s me. Any tourneys coming up in the area?

hey guys, I happen to stumble on this thread thinking Rochester’s fighting scene was dead. Anyways I’m here to tell ya guys that a bunch of us are playing some 3rd strike at Arena 51, as mentioned not so long ago in this thread. I’m sure you guys all remember me (it’s Quang, or WONG!, or, George’s beating buddy). We can switch off to other games as well, its just that 3rd strike seems to be the most popular and the middle ground for us.

Louis, you devil, get to ARENA 51. Joey wants to kick ur butt ;). Dude is Nam still at his place? I want to play him again. my 3rd strike is slacking. He was such a big motivator for me.

Bcather, if ur looking for some tekken action, come on up ^_^. few of us are pretty awesome at tekken. I dont know if I’ve played u before but, I was the only Ling player in Rochester, if u ever played 1, that was probably me.

Terance!? holy shit bro, whats happening :slight_smile:

Remember guys, Arena 51 is only like … what, 3-5 mins away from RIT? maybe less too.

  • Quang

There’s 3S going on? Is it an arcade cabinet?

ya grifter :slight_smile:

no its not a cabnit. We setup a PS2 3rd strike at arena 51. We show up every monday (except today 2/26 cuz most of us are dealing with finals at RIT). You know you want some piece of the action. We usually get things rolling around 7pm.

Luis I am happy that you sold my x-box…Youre just gonna have to give me your xbox 360…Sorry about that…I thought everybody in Rochester gaming died…haha

necrobump(?) lol, how’s everyone?

lol, that would be a sight. the day after 4:20 I’m sure every1 would still be celebrating at the tourney. I’m sorry to say that i cannot make it down to long island. I’m pined down with school and work at the time being.

We’re still meeting on Mondays, playing 3rd Strike.

Also, according to rumor the anime store next door to arena 51 is going to setup a Melty Blood: Act Cadenza ver. B machine.

I’ll play, haven’t taken SF3 seriously since I lived in NYC so I need a tune up.

EDIT: I just realized that June 17th is Father’s Day. So I will probably be changing the date of this big tourney to either June 24th or July 1st. (more likely July 1st)

Alrighty people, the official thread for July 1st:
