I can’t. No tengo dinero to spend and the little i do have I’m not gonna spend just to spectate so ya just gonna have to hold it down for me this time around. I’m like Marn i’m trying to get me a legit job i’m tired of being broke more often than not lol
It’s a LOT different than inflating the pot. And it was a cool move for certain purposes. Like I said, it was a nice gesture. But my personal feelings on “free games” or friendlies or whatever they’re called now, that should be a given if people are “showing how much they want him there”. I’m not knocking any hustle though. I just heard about an $800 ticket, seen random donation posts, and bam headliner.
I fucks with Fighting GM tough but I think he knows that if he needs that kind of guap to come down from the Bronx, he’s s.o.l. or he’s already been pleading his case for months beforehand, like cardboard sign shit. On top of all that, he wants to support TN events already anyway so a way is usually found. Same deal with Anakin, plus he’s now old enough to drive to TN without his pops. I’d slap the shit outta any nigga that gave him gas money to come here. Lol honestly I’d prob get him here if it was hard times, but only because he takes care of me whenever I come down there. I wasn’t fond on Tek players donating to bring Koreans and Japs over, but I thought it was nice, and I heard more people who DIDNT go to the tournies donated than actual players. That only tells me that people didn’t like them leaving with their money, all of it. Repeatedly. Until recent events.
Wong at ARKIII is good exposure for the tournament series itself though. Prob bring more of the south out and then expand. Texas and Oklahoma come already.
EDIT: Is any of MidTN or Knox going to ARKIII?
ggs Duckie I learned alot about fighting Phoenix shes not as scary anymore
Yeah man, definitely! I told you she can be beaten, you just gotta think a little differently when fighting her.
also FOR MORPH!
Hater vandalizes Tecmo Koei building, calls games ‘sh*t’- Destructoid
*Tecmo Koei’s Japanese office building has been attacked by a particularly hateful fanboy who doesn’t seem to appreciate the company’s games.
The remarks spraypainted on the building are remarkably bitter and hateful. Such messages include, “Die”, “garbage”, “Sh*t game”, and one other phrase that is either “Divine retribution” or “Tenchu”, which is the name of a ninja-based franchise made by From Software. *
Shameful.
Also, Mississippi and Missouri are coming, but not too many i guess!!! I get what you saying about paying pro to come to a events but i still think bringing a pro would really help us getting a lot of exposure in the region and help us with future events which all sound like a future investment. Everybody who chipping in this case want more than just play games with him, they also want ARK to get lot of exposure in the community and want arkansas to grow as a community. I’ll see you in few days buddy.
Hey Wootsick, you bringing your crew or what?
Yep. This is awesome.

Also, if you’re expecting to ride with me to ARK III this weekend, I need to know RIGHT NOW. Kyoji and maybe NastyBisonUser are wanting to know if they can meet me in Oxford and ride the rest of the way with me. If Cylus is coming too, this would fill up my car.
In fact, let’s just do this all organized and shit:
Car 1:
Duckie
Cylus (?)
– (maybe Kyoji)
– (maybe NBU)
Who else is driving, and who is riding with someone? I don’t want anyone to get left behind because of a lack of communication.
Oh, and someone needs to drag Jas to this thing. I’m sure we can raise enough for gas/entry for him.
hahahahaha, nice! I like fighting games I just have no desire to play them all the time like I use’t to. It is still fun for me to play casually and that is how I will keep it fun, whatever form that may be lolz. I do miss hanging with you crazy cats though, I need to come to the arcade more often, it’s been way too long. For some reason i’d like to be good at marvel 3, I guess it’s the scrub/casual side in me lol. This game is super frustrating, but super fucking fun as fucking fuck at the same time. Makes no sense, it’s like drugs.
Methvel Vs Crackcom 3: New Age of Salt Miners.
Real talk, Wong paid much more than any other individual for his ticket. We chipped in as a community to help him come. Will everyone agree with that? Nah, but it is what it is. I’m sorry if you guys are disappointed in us, but at least 50-60 random Arkansans who barely play the game will have the honor of watching Justin Wong play in their own backyard. I’m for the community whether it’s Arkansas or Memphis, Street Fighter or Tekken, Pros or Scrubs. We’re providing an experience for everyone who comes to our event and those who want to chip in do. I will hold nothing against you if you decide not to chip in or if you disagree with what we did. Was it the best possible option? Probably not, but there’s so much we’ve been trying to do to get Arkansas on the map. Plus, you Memphis guys know this since y’all have such a strong scene: You can’t be the best without playing the best.
JWong’s coming to our event, but we’ll see if he takes dat fight money.
Anyway hope to see you guys there and hope you have a good time!
I feel ya. Now y’all better kick his ass!
Also, who DOESN’T want to vandalize Tecmo Koei’s building. If you can’t make decent games you shouldn’t be given free passes. I’m looking at you EA Tiburon / Bungie.
It would be awesome if Memphis guys attended this tournament, it has MvC3 inside

I’m driving and I think Orel and Squab are planning on riding with me as far as I know. So I can fit one more (or two if people don’t mind squeezing in the back seat).
I still need a ride so if it’s cool I pool with you guys, Eraser.
Eraser, Rukus is slaw and boring. You need someone fun and interesting to go. (ME!!!)) lol
But real talk, since Eraser is now full and if anyone else plans on going and has room for me let me know. I would love to play the Arkansas comp.
Gotcha down.
Updated list:
Car 1:
Duckie
Cylus (?)
– (maybe Kyoji)
– (maybe NBU)
Car 2:
Eraser
Squab
Lycan
Rukus
Needs a ride:

Hey gents, wanted to drop in and say that if any of you plan on playing MK or getting into it at all, I highly suggest visiting this site and registering, then posting in the TN thread there.
All the MK news will be posted there, and plus more people in there is going to build more hype.
so who’s entering the 3v3 with me in SF and MvC?
I’ll check the site out Storyteller. I’m hype for MK even if nobody else is.
Prof. Pillsbury: You suck. Nuff said.
I’m jealous of all the people going to ARK.
