Saskatchewan Thread 2012

I’m thinking of going to evo but I’m torn between it and comic con.

Thanks!

I’ve been asking for a gametag for the last year and have offered to meet up for games as I’m sure most players here would be willing to do. At this point in time if nothing is going to be put into action then why bother to say anything to begin with ya know.

Anyways how was the games yesterday at dustin’s place, how many people showed?

yeah, so i’ll be in Saskatoon sunday, monday, and leaving tuesday. Anyone play 3rd strike?

I do, I’ll be free on sunday afternoon so give me a shout when you get in town.

still recovering from my beatdown at the hands of marc and gat/gief. goddamn.

i don’t even wanna respond to that diatribe up there other than by saying you’d probably be welcome to play with any of us, just please leave your instant negative reactions at home. positivity is what makes good people, good people.

Damn right yo!

So I think I finally am starting to see some real improvement in SFXT. I won’t know until I fight against really good opponents but so far I’ve been rolling past ranked matches and aside from getting wrecked by rebelo, no one else has really beaten me that bad aside from chao during the 1st week. I don’t think I’m good enough to be cocky yet but I’m getting there:)

Hey guys is there anyone I can check my connection strength and speed without having to call shaw and have them do it for me?

Edit: what’s the ideal router for online games?

1: I’d use speedtest.net

Ha thanks for the speednet.net though:)

So I know I’ve been bitching about vega a lot but I didn’t realize he can punish law on almost everything!

Most of law’s safe pressure can be punished by vega’s crouching jab or at least that’s what it looks like. I’m always holding back after I pressure with law and avoid pressing buttons, but I still got punished which is a huge WTF. Cammy seems to do fine against him but I don’t know what moves are safe against vega. It feels like he has 0 start-up on all his pokes, I’ll have to see how quick his pokes are and what I should avoid using.

Connection speed has nothing to do with better or worse online play, all that really matters is what your latency is. In other words, us people in mid Canada are fucked.

Isn’t there a way to improve the latency?

I’ve had clear games against guys from BC but some slide show matches agaiant local guys which does t make sense to me.

well local guys might have crap upload.

So this if my connection, seem good?

How long a session? I’m off Sunday Monday i’d drive up but only if it was a worthwhile sesh.

Hmmm if you come down here norman maybe I could rent some space at HT in case anyone else wants to join in.

That’s awesome man! Looking forward to meeting you.

I actually didn’t get to play Marc the other night. Too mamy holes in the team, looking at papa Marmakude now. Game is still ass.

I think if I came down for long sesh it would be better to just bring my own setup or someone host. I don’t mind paying at all but other ppl might.

GGs to Raiden last night

sunday I’m in at around 3pm local saskatoon time. I got work Monday at 12 until…8pm but i’ll be working ridiculously close to the hotel. I’ll be staying at the Delta Bessborough or whatever it’s called.

Evo: What’s HT?

btw norman dinner is on me since your’e making the drive up. It wont be too much anyway cuz i already know i can eat more than you. and you’re a body builder! Ha!

Well no one else in Saskatoon is a big fan of 3s so it’s probably just going to be me. If Norman comes down then it will probably just be the 3 of us. I haven’t played offline 3s since like 5+ years ago so I’m looking forward to it, sask used to have lots of 3s players but they all left.

Do you play any other fighters?

GGs man sf4 > sfxt imo

You’re not playing SFXT steve?

Chun’s top tier ya know, why not give it more time?
