OK MK9 was a success IMO, it might not be a tournament front runner game but it brought the nostalgia back and is actually fun to play, now I’m waiting for Killer Instinct 3 to surpass my expectations.
I thought KI3 got its combo broke?
so if they ever do a 5v5 for MK9 Team Tampa would be:
Me
Bryant
JT
Bob
???
I had a few long talks with various FGC members and I really think this needs to be said.
People need to step their shit up and contribute overall to the wellbeing of the scene.
It’s obvious that a good amount of us want to get better, be dominant, go to majors and get hype.
The first step to this is for everyone to learn their shit, expand their game knowledge and TALK to eachother.
Talk about OS’s, tricks, gimmicks, character specifics, etc. Adjusting your playstyle to be 100% effective and non scrubby (stop pressing buttons, learn to block, maximize punishes, learn frametraps etc), it causes you to get rid of bad habits and to help your opponent get out of bad habits as well. It’s cool and all to go to alma and crack jokes and hype up games, but if no one is working to make the community better as a whole(this doesn’t mean just bring games and consoles, but thank you those who do), what’s the point of going to alma anyway? Ask for help, get in sessions, play games you may not like for the overall well being of the community.
I’m going to repurchase MvC3 and play it more just because I know there’s a good amount of people in Tampa that want to play it and get good. I’ll pick up MK9 when I can too. We need a head count of the amount of people that are willing to be devoted to their specific FG scene, especially newer games like MK9.
There’s a reason why no one thinks of FL anymore when they think of Flash. Yeah we have Jo Gray and CJ, but if the community got better as a whole, everyone would benefit.
No one in particular was targeted in this post.
It is now time for the energy shift of the 7th root race to manifest on the 3D physical plane and uplift us back to 5D aka let’s get godlike.
Yo everyone. Name’s Robert, for those I haven’t met yet. I’ll be having some casuals at my place in Brandon tomorrow. We’ll be setting up around 5-6 in the afternoon, and we’ll be battling 'til 2 or so in the morning. It’ll probably only be a few people, but yer welcome to come by. Just send me a text if yer interested, and I’ll send you the addresss. My number is 540-809-9298.
I’ll only have two setups (one for Marvel and one for Super). If you can, bring a setup and I’ll have the room.

Welcome to the Tampa thread.
I heard Jebailey shouted out my trademark 7924 on his podcast with dnyce
:tup:
are you just listing all the people who have the game or…
how did this list come to be?
quoted so this doesn’t get lost in previous page purgatory
This man speaks the truth. We need to have some kind of weekly get together somewhere where ALL of us can just have casuals of whatever game we wanna play and level up in. This city is too big to not have a LAN center that won’t provide us with space of some kind space for us to get together each week. I also think the problem is whenever we do get a BIG group together for games it’s always in a tournament settings. Don’t get it twisted, Alma is good and all, but it’s hard to convince people to share knowledge with each other when they’re competing against one another at a tourney.
I think we all just need to find a place to get together just to have casuals so we can have the luxury to share knowledge with each other.
for now, pretty much lol
I seriously miss playing xmen with all my osan homies. We really need to start getting together and playing xmen again like the old days 
lol Im sorry that I only like the old games :[ but still I wanna practice for evo again so I can beat that damn fool Joker again with my gdlk Bison throws:rofl:
But anyways about what isacc said getting together and shit, We all know Tong the owner of Play N trade why dont we just ask him if we can do what we use to do at the PnT in Brandon? The only thing I suppose would stop him is if NONE OF YOU CLOWN ASS NIGGAS DONT SHOW UP!!!

lol i was just busting your balls. Sosa plays and i will too once i burn a copy. no reason not to play pretty much every game in tampa
Also yes, please god we need somewhere to get together at least once a week to level up…i miss pnt so much.
Ranbats please?
My little brother actually plays mk9. and he is decent being that I am the only one he plays and I punch him in the head every time I get a game on him.
Him and I both will play anyone 2v2 (do that in SF… or Mahvel free)
I’m pretty sure I’ll have another place in St. Pete for a monthly casual get together starting in June… i’m contemplating setting up one of my cabs there for $.25 plays… but i’ll update everyone with that once the business opens up all the details have been hammered out.
Other than that, if anyone want to play old school games XvsSF, CVS2, Alpha 2 ST or any neo game hit me up outside of the forums and we’ll set up a low key (4-8 people max) regular thing at my place.
Thanks, man. If yer not busy and yer close to Brandon, feel free to hit me up for some battles.
Hey everybody,
So I’ve been out of the scene for a good bit of time due to life, work, school etc. but am in serious need to reshape for CEO and Evo. Got a couple of questions just to see where the communities feeling. With CEO and Evo running AE how do people feel about practicing Super still? Do people still take Marvel seriously? I still love the game and would like the opportunity to practice with anyone if at all possible. Hows everyone taking Mortal Kombat? Is anyone interested in taking the game at a serious tourney level? Is anyone else planning to go to Evo? Oh and yes I also agree having somewhere we can go weekly would really help the community flourish again.
what the hell is 7924?

Swag: The way in which you carry yourself. Swag is made up of your overall confidence, style, and demeanor. Swag can also be expanded to be the reputation of your overall swagger. You gain swag, or “Swag up”, by performing swag worthy actions that improve this perception. A person can also “swag down,” by being an overall pussy and garnering negative swag for their actions. Swag is a subtle thing that many strive to gain but few actually attain. It is reserved for the most swagalicious of people. Swag can also be quantified, with point systems existing in some circles of friends.
“I got with two girls last night”
“Awesome dude, that’s some swag”
“I think one of them was my sister though…”
“Negative swag”
…
“I’m digging that strut son, I like your swag”
“Thanks Dad”
…
“I don’t think I can go out tonight, I got too much work”
“Swag up you little bitch”
…
“If I finish this pizza in under 3 minutes, can I get a swag point?”
“You really don’t understand swag…do you?”
