A few of you responded to a thread I posted a while back to get Portland area gamers more involved. Thank you for those of you who replied. I was able to meet Raishinken (great player btw…) & played a few games with Metalxhealth as a result of the thread… I know it’s not always easy to drive accross Portland to get together for a game with the the schedules people have. So with Street Fighter 4 coming out soon, and many of you have Xbox Live or GGPO I want to post up a list of people who are willing to get involved with the local Portland Metro community.
I started with the people who already have made effort to get involved from my last thread. Please send me a message if there is any information i’m missing. let me know if you don’t want your info up as well…
Fill out the following info and any contact info you wish to include (ie…phone number, email etc.)

Can I Kick it? - I’m up for any kind of event… tourney or hang-out… that I can get to and from via public transit unless if someone is passing through the Vancouver area and wants to split gas. I’m a full time college student presently living at home, so I can’t really offer up my house for events for the time being. I’m definitely game for Live matches whenever I’m actually available (late afternoons and late evenings during the week… pretty much any time on the weekends).
Games: I have (with XBL support) HDR, 3S, GGX2#R, VF5, SCIV. I’m only relatively proficient with HDR. The others I’m just now learning.
Competetive or Casual: I’m competitive with a desire to constantly improve, but I’m not pro-grade in general.

GGPO: N/A
AIM: Gabe7288
Can I Kick It? - Yes, my roomate is a gamer and we would be pleased to play other SF players. I’m willing to meet up with anywhere but I primarily play at Ground Kontrol. I need a new radiator though, so I couldn’t really go to someone’s house until I get that replaced in a week or so.
Games you play: I’m mostly playing SF4 but before it came out I was playing a lot of HD Remix. I still stick to my roots and have my SNES with 2 Turbo hooked up. I’m up for any Street Fighter though
Competetive or Casual: Fairly casual, I’m really only good with Shotos and have very little arcade experience. I’m piecing together a custom Sanwa right now though so I plan on becoming competitive.

Can I Kick It?
I can kick it like the Rockettes at a Tae Kwan Do class. Any time is good for me, I come out to Versis on Thursdays and I am always down to play at home (mine or yours). I have all the classic arcade SF and SF based games on my PC as well as GGPO and several controllers available but I would recommend bringing your own.
I also make electronic music in several styles. http://sonicwave.biz
