What’s up everyone! Happy New Year!
Lmao FB officially killed this thread! I havent been on here for months lol. Get on FB yo!
I just got off facebook. It’s gone. Lol
So… everyone is on Facebook huh? Damn. I don’t use FB and don’t really have plans to. Can/will someone keep this thread updated? I guess I could always use Moon River Facebook account…
Anything consistently happening in the area right now?
Btw, Hi everyone and happy 2012!
I just got a job in Jacksonville…looking forward to getting some games in with you guys. In the meantime, where the hell should I live? I have 3 weeks to get down there. I can’t determine the good/bad parts of town because the city is the size of a small country, apparently. My job is located like 10 miles west of the middle of downtown.
I live in Riverside, that’s where I live and hang out mostly, Riverside and downtown. Riverside has a big arts community and close to downtown. Where do you work by the way? I work in the Westside too.
Other popular places are Southside and the beaches (near UNF), but I don’t go out that way too much because driving there is a headache.
Southside is central to most places. In term of the scene there are casuals on Thursdays and Sundays and most Wednesdays. Saturdays there are tournaments somewhere here, Daytona, Tally Orlando. Welcome! Where did you come from?
I am going to be working at the Football Fanatics HQ. Its on Commonwealth Ave. near the Paxon area.
Cool, sounds like the scene is pretty alive in FL. I’m coming from Canton, OH and the scene is pretty dead here. I’m hoping to find some decent competition after I relocate. I’m pretty much only playing ssf4 at the moment.
I hate to say it but CEO gaming events and the Jacksonville Fighting Game Community facebook groups are good resources too
Yep, I requested to join the jacksonville fg facebook group yesterday…was just posting here until I got accepted. Thanks for your help!
Just checking in on the thread,
which looks as good as dead.

RIP srk jax thread. FB has officially owned you. Stay salty my friend.
I’m gonna link this up in the Facebook FGC community deal thingamajig as well. If you aren’t on that pooch get on that pooch.
edit: Dan league junk now planned for the zD arcade stuff when it goes up and grows. We were jumping the gun on that stuff before. HH was just too volatile and out of our control to cultivate an arcade style setup there.
^ :tup:
Sounds interesting for the seeding. 3S is awesome and that’s all I play so this lame duck is happy. Wish I had checked to see about 3S roulette Mar 4, I would’ve come by.
We’ll be doing a bit of SFxT this Sunday to check the game out. We’ll have 3s there though as well. If you can’t make it then definitely come by when we start back up in April. It should be great.
Hey what’s up guys? Just wanted to stop through and post up the info for the 2012 EVO Midwest Championships (MWC). That’s right, we are an EVO qualifier this year, and are looking to make this the biggest MWC yet!
This year’s MWC will be held in Nashville, TN. Specifically at the South’s premier arcade, Game Galaxy, which is owned and operated by OG tournament player and veteran game collector Jason “DreamTR” Wilson!
All of the info on location, fees, and scheduling, is contained in the tournament thread, so I won’t make this post overcrowded by including it all here:
SRK Tournament thread - http://shoryuken.com/forum/index.ph…-june-22-24-2012-3-days-of-antioch-tn.152079/
Be sure to RSVP at the Facebook event page - http://www.facebook.com/events/100263760101160/
Also, follow Dream, Game Galaxy, and your Main Tournament staff on Twitter:
Jason “DreamTR” Wilson - Twitter @DreamTR
Richard “SlowJamzMixTape” Smith - Twitter @dbxbeat
Chris “Negro Justice” Brown - Twitter @NegroJustice
Brandon “GoldenOreos” Brocius - @CMK_GoldenOreos
Jonathan “Milln” Conaway - Twitter @DPOnWakeup
One additional note - there are some upcoming TN events in which you will have the opportunity to secure favorable seeding for MWC:
The first is our “Games for Autism Speaks” event that is being held jointly with the Tennessee Chapter of The Modified Dolls. It will take place on Saturday, April 28, 2012, starting at 12pm. Facebook event page here - http://www.facebook.com/events/272080749529275/. Follow TN Dolls on twitter - @TNdolls
The second is an event being organized by our good friend, OG Marvel 2 player, and the hypest commentator in the South, Jose “DGAGodlikeRushdown” Santiago! A lot of you saw and heard him do his thing at Final Round XV! You haven’t seen anything till you come kick it with us in TN! “Memphis Bawse Battles” will take place on May 26th in Memphis, TN. Follow Jose on twitter - @DGAGdlkRushdown; and Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/GodlikeRushdown to stay current on his events!
The TOP FIVE placers at these events will get byes or double byes (depending on turnout) in their respective games at MWC. So, doing well here gets you one step closer to those sought after EVO points!
Finally guys, PLEASE DON’T HESITATE to contact the tournament staff, the arcade, post in the tournament or TN thread, send us smoke signals, carrier pigeons, etc for ANY questions you have. We are here to help and want to make this event huge as it’s the last qualifier before EVO.
Thanks guys!
