Great thread Mandel, this brings back some memories. I especially wish I had been in the 3S tournament with KO and KSK. I waited for 5 hours, playing Rise of the Dragons, at Kicks in Northgate for F-Zero GX that day. I ended up not getting F-Zero and, pissed off that I missed the tourney and didn’t get my game, went to Lanwerx for casuals. I stepped up to 3S and beat KO first try! Highlight of my 3S career.
Anyway, I have brackets from the Southcenter tournaments that happened even before this stuff. Tournaments where the finals for Marvel were things like Scott and Rat or Cody and Scott. Pre-Rowtron days! Where the payouts for Marvel were $90+ every tournament. I could probably hand them off to Zack to get them scanned and posted if anyone is interested.
The fact that my best tournament outting was a 2nd place finish in SC2 down in tacoma is ultra somber…The only thing close to that would be the 2 top 5 finishes i got playing Cable/Commando/Tron…yes you read that right. Maybe it’s time for the training room to welcome an old friend once again.
This thread is sick. I remember that first XX tourney at SC with Randy that shit was nuts, there was hella people there. Nice work Mandel.
One thing that’s bomb about these results, is that this was all back when Issariya still lived here hahah. Wow, I miss that guy.
And you were bitching in AIM about how you weren’t getting recognized for this stellar thread.
Silly kneegrowz.
A rock group once sang…“you dunno what you’ve got…TILL IT’S GONE!”
I just showed people and they peeped mass appeal! Hahahah.
mandel comin with the nostalgia… hard to believe i can still remember individual matches and just random stuff that happened during those tournaments. makes me wonder if we’ll ever have a tourney in the NW again. <teardrop>
Yknow Nolan, I can still remember part of your finals set against Genghis when he very first came up yeaaaaaaaaaaaars ago. Mag/Storm/Commando vs Sent/Cable/Doom hahah. I can remember a lot of my individual matches too randomly enough.
You remember a lot of my individual matches too =p. Let’s not forget Frank vs. Jesse G.
Here’s a couple of FrankDaDank matches that will forever be memorable to me…
-Frank vs Jesse G The “What the hell is goin on?!” match. With Jesse using Megaman/Doom/BH and Frank using Psylocke/Storm/Tron.
-Frank vs Jesse H/Hustleman The “TAG!” match. I think at one point there was about 5,6 tags in that match hahah.
-Frank vs Maverick, you guys just need to see it.
After GW tonight, a bunch of us were outside talking about all the arcades we used to have around here. I hella wanted to shed a tear =[.

Man, I thought this was a new thread or something. Dammit. Good shit for being able to read these again, but dammit.
rofl. Man looking at those old results brings back great memories of a time I thought I was actually good at Guilty Gear. Those were fun times.
