Any pics of the H2H available?

1302

Iā€™ll take pics and/or video of it when I get there.

Big thanks and congratulations to Sergjiev of Arkadeum and Watson for allowing us to hold a basic stream station at Super Arcade. Video and audio quality werenā€™t up to par with our standards, but hopefully it spotlighted some of our new and upcoming players in the community while also giving you top-level play from some of our core regulars. The link to the archive can be found below:

Are you planning on doing another tournament this Friday? Iā€™m gonna be in town this week and was looking forward to participating in one of these.

1305

Yes, sir. Iā€™ll be there this Friday. Super Arcade has a H2H ST Machine that uses quarters, so weā€™ll use that for casuals and the tournament. If we can get enough players, Iā€™ll be more than happy to run a tournament. No stream this week, but Iā€™ll have my trusty hand-cam for recordings.

1306

Cool. How about Wednesday? Do people still show up on Wednesdays?

1307

The core ST group shows up on Wednesdays from time to time. Itā€™s never really a consistent thing nowadays, and if they do, they usually donā€™t post it up on social outlets. But Wednesday nights are ALWAYS packed at Super Arcade due to WNF, so youā€™ll most likely be able to get in some ST casuals. Roll the dice, show up on Wednesday, and see what happens. If Watsonā€™s not busy, you can ask him if he wants to get in some games. If you talk some shit and let him know youā€™re from out-of-town, that might fire him up to play you even more, lol.

But Friday is a sure thing. I actually got word we may have 1 or 2 other out-of-towners coming by to play ST, so it should make for a fun night. Depending on the players, I can even try out one of the ST Games formats just to keep things interesting.

1308

I guess Iā€™ll be there on Wednesday then.

1309

What time do the Friday tournaments usually start? Iā€™m driving down from Vegas tomorrow with some people that are coming in for VF event. Weā€™re hitting the road after work tho so we might be in kinda late.

1310

Depends what time the players get there and if thereā€™s enough of them. On average, we donā€™t get started until 9 or 930, sometimes even later.

1311

Whatā€™s up with these avatars slyry, eltrouble, and bernie?

Also, whatā€™s everyone up to these days? Whatā€™s going on Digital, Afro, Synco, Stacy, and shotos?

1312

ggs to everyone last night.

1313

GGs to everyone on Friday night. We had a lot of new and rare faces show up to play in our ST tournament, including guys like Shag from NY and Zass from the North West. Shout outs to Spliff32000 for rolling on through and getting in some games with the socal crew. I hope you enjoyed your stay in California and had fun playing at Super Arcade, and I look forward to meeting up with you again the future. Also, it was good seeing shotosallday back at Super Arcade getting his grind on, and his shoto play is still on-point. Here are the results of last nightā€™s tournament

Hey, just posting to say that Iā€™m going to try to make it out here every week now for WNF. I need practice for EVO. I think Wednesdays are great because people will still have their weekends to party, go clubbing, or whatever other debauchery you guys are into. I donā€™t judge.

1315

ST Games Socal Qualifiers will be starting soon! First tournament will be a ratio tournament, second one will be a character lock tournament. As a bonus, weā€™ll be having two stream stations that you guys can follow the action on.

Did you get a chance to record matches from tourneys after 3/01/13 and do you plan on posting them up? On your channel the most recent tourney videos are from 3/01/13.
