I’ll do a 1st to 5 for $100 at SB on the jap cabs, ken vs. gief, which is supposed to be in giefs favor. Shirts, I want you and every other west coast ST player to make it out for SB high stakes ST! It could be the best ST tournament ever.
I’ll meet up with you in Japan. I’ll be there during SBO time. We can play some matches.
only reason im posting is cause shirts told me about this. as far as playing ggpo, no thx. cant stand lag, dont even like console tbh, the days of arcades are gone and my desire to play is gone alone with them 
as far as money making opportunities im willing to play if the stakes are high. not trying to throw a ridiculous amount out there just to scare someone, but honestly its not worth my time to waste my working hours to practice up a video game to win a couple hundred when i could sit and home with 0 effort playing poker 
so yeah, that was not me on ggpo, and i am willing to bet if the stakes are high but i will only play on an arcade cab arcade version ST. not shitting on anyone, just willing to take any bets vs anyone on original ST arcade version. i do have interest in betting on shirts aswell for a big amount if anyone wants to make side bets. dont ever count an OG out, shirts was seriously like top 5 when the game came around the 2nd time so just cause you never heard of him dont disrespect.
FT10 potentially could play up to the 19th game, so everything could be downloaded by then and the match up will influence the outcome more than say, a best of 5 set. Although I agreed that FT10 in ST is much much faster than in SSF4.
Interesting challenge from damdai after the earlier controversial post
But for SE to switch from playing on a pad + console HDR to stick + Japanese ST Cab is quite a tall order. If SE can pull this off, I will agree with Sirlin that he is really the miracle man!
BTW SE accepted the challenge from shirts but he didn’t say he is character locked to gief in classic mode, unless I misunderstood. I was informed that SE is equally skilled with Ken/Ryu or other characters.
$1000 minimal MM? Damn all these OGs are rich now XDDD, but you guys shouldn’t stop playing SF2. I’m old but it’s still super fun for me.
Sorry I don’t playmoneymatches on cab,i will play on HD Classic mode that way each player could have their own controller preference. My max bet on hd classic is $250 and for HDR it’s $500.:smokin:
I understand. I wish everyone would learn jap stick tho. It’s the current standard, and what was used when designing ST. When playing on a cabinet where both players have the same controls, theres no question of whether or not 1 player’s controller has an advantage over the other, ie whether or not its easier to input moves on pad or stick. Besides, DGV’s doin it!
Yeah, if DGV can do it, anyone can do it.
So Damdai, are you willing to do your $100 bet against SE on HDR classic mode, him with a pad and you with a stick?
Good analysis as usual fatboy, and I agree with your summary. Very excited for this!
I’ll think about it. I’m all about authentic ST these days.
Ghaleon said that he’ll have one ST cab wired with jamma => PSX converter, so you guys can still duke it out @ SB:R if SE don’t mind playing ST arcade on PS pad instead of HDR:classic.
Authentic ST for me is arcade ST with AMERICAN sticks.
No one played JAP sticks back in the day.
Some of us still don’t (if we can help it, LOL).
Absolutely agreed. Happ and iL sticks all day ftw!! Classic Arcade ST is all about cabs with round gate sticks.
while we are all at it id like to challenge snake eyez to a money match in TMNT tournament fighters except it has to be the sega genesis version and snake eyez can only play using a NES power glove with a genesis adapter
1000 dollars lets go!!!
Square gate is perfect for dat down-back action though!
Haha that shit is funny!! Whats up with everyone trying to make some money on this game goddamn snake eyez wins evo and people come out of the woodwork trying to hustle. Shirts is a solid sim for sure and the advantage Sim has over Gief in ST is too much in my opinion
So much money flying around. :looney:
By the way, I’ll accept money matches in HDR myself for up to 100$.
Except if it’s damdai. Everyone else is welcome though.
lmao we know the reason after reading f101.net’s interview. or maybe you meant except for damdai then the min bet is $1000
At this point, a MM vs damdai would just be pissing my money away. He knows my tricks and my game isn’t up there yet.
Lmao I agree 100% with you Blue!
Are you talkin bout online or offline $ Matches?
