Let me know next time you guys play and I’ll be there.
I don’t like making posts saying “Okay everyone show up at my house on this date/time” because if nobody can make it or people flake, I end up wasting my evening. I have friends outside of the fighting game community as well as in it and there’s other stuff I could be doing if a gathering doesn’t end up happening.
As much as you dislike “what’s the point?” as a reason, that doesn’t make it any less valid. I don’t intend to call you out specifically but one of our most recent dialogues is a perfect example. One time I even plainly said “I’m available to play anytime for the next two weeks” and the only thing I heard was when you asked for my cell number, which I PM’d you, and after that I heard nothing.
I got your number that day. Then the weekend came by and I had a tournament I wanted to go to. Same goes for that next weekend. Maybe I had school, maybe I had work? Does this combination of things that take up my weekdays and weekends justify me not wanting to bother calling someone that I couldn’t hang out with? I’m not going to call and ask to come over when I can’t. That’s why I didn’t call. iirc, I might’ve posted about it too, but then again I’ve always made these excuses and I’m sure it’s made me look like a flake.
This weekend I won’t be coming over either because there’s a tournament at Gamebox in Birmingham. Apparently they’re doing Smash and Tekken 6, but other setups are okay.
Umm we post up every week because it is an important main event that decides who is the best in Alabama and also to get more people to buy tickets and come watch
not sure to go baw from the gameroom down here at montevallo, but all I know is that execution practice is always worth it (hopefully I can devote that Blazblue training to Arakune and Hazama a little bit more… Balrog and Bison as well)
Anyway, What day is the gamebox tourney Derp, I might wanna hit that up if I get a chance and maybe I can play some Super over there
Here’s the info for the place. The OP of the thread is only on SWF and they didn’t bother advertising T6 on there, even though it is happening, so I don’t really care to get the link.

I’ll gladly get in on some Super with you, bro. I’d like some Blazblue as well (preferred), but I don’t have a disc anymore because my bro took it when he moved to NC. We are now minus one Hakumen in Alabama.
Blinky, we should game some time soon. I’m available any time after 2 throughout the week and anytime during the weekends. I’m thinking about making a run to Game Galaxy or Gamerdoc this weekend.
Okay, enough with all the drama. We’re all bros here, so instead of pointing fingers and arguing about why people can’t make it, we should be trying to help people play when they can. The B’ham scene is small enough as it is compared to many scenes–we shouldn’t be dividing ourselves.
With that being said, I’ll try to post up here more often when I’m having stuff at my place, starting with this post. I’m going to have something at my house in the next couple of days, most likely tomorrow (Friday) night. I get off work at 9pm, so it will be after then, probably around 10pm (we usually play pretty late, until 3AM or so). As always, everyone is welcome to attend. My cell is 563-4194, call or text me tomorrow and let me know if you’re coming, need directions, etc. If you can’t reach me, just send a text/leave a message and I’ll get back to you.
I’m also planning on attending AWA with a friend of mine, so I’ll see ya’ll there (assuming things work out and I get to go).
I don’t really like drama either. Besides, I think y’all are p. cool. I don’t want to be ostracized.
I can’t come over on Friday or Saturday. Saturday is a tournament and Friday, I’ll be expecting OoS to come to my place (one of them plays Blazblue, woohoo) at around 8:00. I might be able to convince them to drive to your place, but chances are I might be stuck here. I swear, there’s a tournament almost every week with 20+ people in AL for Smash, but we haven’t had a serious one for FGs for so long.
I plan on attending AWA as well. I’ll be bringing several people with me too. What days are you going?
