Thing is, this place has been the closest thing we’ve had to a ‘scene’ in recent years. I would love to contribute and make this thing serious shit, but both the players and the management need communication work. A lot of the players won’t improve(shoryu-reppa kens? come on) due to stubborn attitudes, and the management won’t let us get more involved. It’s really sad.
Fairfield hasn’t ever really had a 3rd Strike scene, but I heard their Marvel and Tekken scenes are doing pretty well. I’ve been trying to arrange a meet with some friends at tilt, but it’s been no dice as of late. Also, I think I saw some tilt heads come to 707 once, but nobody played 3S.
Anyhow, it’s almost a lost cause unless something changes soon.
hmm, too bad. I’ve thought about coming up to Scandia, but have never been able to figure out when people were meeting.
There was some obscure website that was never updated, with a dead forum. And then there were the occasional messages up on the tourny board, but the presence here in the region forum has been really weak.
If you guys figure something out, drop me a line and I’ll come up to play. I’m not terribly good, but I’ll see if I can’t work my Stun Gun Head Butt gimmicks like I do at other places.
Well Rival, You know I still play 3S. Which, BTW, I still need your aim, and im down for getting my ass beat (no homo) any time you’re in the mood for some matches. Random Ray (Shoryu Reppa Ken) has been told many times, but because he doesnt follow the game at all, except for his friday nights, he just doesnt care. One day, a sonoma player will challenge your title. Until then, im the only Sonoma player that likes Guilty Gear…
I saw Daniel last month at Scandia I believe. Sorry I didn’t say hi. (this is Frank)
I would hit up Scandia a lot more than I do, the problem is I’m rarely in the North Bay on weekends. You guys have a great arcade compared to the arcades we have in Marin County. We have one mall that has a T5:DR machine, which sticks work half the time. We also have a local arcade that has a pretty solid variety, but no dedicated 3S, CVS2 or MVC2 machines. Do you guys usually have a lot of CVS2 players on the weekends up there?
When I’m randomly there I notice a lot of 3S players
Hey Frank, you from the Marin area? I am too, I may even know you second hand through some one I work with.
If you need some comp and have time, I go over to the Fairfield Tilt. We’re having a tourney this weekend. CVS, 3S, Marvel, T5:DR, and maybe even KOFXI.
Cool, let me know if you need a ride or something. I sent you a PM earlier with more info.
I used to play some 3S with some of the guys at work, but that kind of died down. I’m not originally from this area, so I don’t do any real in house stuff.
I know some guys from work that do some stuff, but haven’t played with them.
