Tokyo Game Action presents: TGA Ranking Battle 2.3 (4/14/07)

oh shit we tied for 4th in points! high five :tup:
i’ll retire and donate all my points to dippy so he can be tied for 1st congrats

what you’re saying is the TRUTH! Since when was everything about money in fighting games???

if anyone could give me a ride up for this it would be appriciative i have no way up to this otherwise…ill spring for gas and shit

would help to know where ur from

Since it’s the only goddamn way it’s to get fools to stop sandbagging their ass off on the Least Coast.

i heard there are these things called tournaments

If the game is that easy then what’s wrong with putting money on the line, right? It’s in the best interest of both parties. Cake walk for them, pride on the line for us.

I understand your concern about AE…

but to be completely honest, playing at TGA is not AE practice in any sense. nobody actively plays this game in the USA, so it’s just a bunch of people doing random things…and losing to CE Bison. it’s not practice in any sense.

the only real way to practice for AE is to fly to Japan and get a crash course. that’s it. there’s just no other way. why do you think Tokido used the lamest CE Bison ever and got so far at EVO? Because Japan is the only place playing this game, period. nobody was ready for that nonsense.

if there is no ST at the next tga ranbat, i might not come. no offense to andy or gavin or anyone, but if i’m forced to play an inferior game and learn nothing, and get no real practice in, i dont think its worth the looooong trip. so i guess we’ll have to see what happens.

Bleehhhh nevermind. But I’ll borrow MB and learn it and we’ll see how I do!

outskirts of philly

RedBeard, this wasn’t directed at you at all man, I have waaaaay too much respect for you, and our discussion in the Team Hate thread was a misunderstanding anyway. You’re the last person I’d make a MM with, I’m quite sure you’d rape me silly in GG anyway.

If you’d like to actually learn how to play MB though (outside of a bet) I’ll be happy to lend the game to you, but if not that’s cool.

Otherwise when AC comes out my May is coming for you!

:3

i’m definitely going to this one, lets get this shit hyped i wanna see Team H8 vs Team Canada one mo gain!!! Get this shit hype

Meh why did I even bother posting that.

Even with just Team Hate and other randoms entering the tournament, I would struggle to finish in the top five. Melty Blood may or may not be easy, but I am certainly terrible at it.

Bleh I don’t even know if I want to go now.

Lame edit: Does anyone know if the MB:AC update will arrive at TGA before the ranbat?

Your ass will be there or I will literally find out where you live and drag you there.

No I’m not joking.

:annoy: :annoy: :annoy: :annoy: :annoy: :annoy:

The only way to get better is to play the game mang. If you enjoy fighting games, go. Win or lose, for me at least, it’s about having fun. If I get trashed and don’t even rank, that just drives me to get better.

When I lost to Moeun at the first ranbat, I practiced like a mofo. Since then, I haven’t gotten quite the same drive to practice because nobody has really beat me besides my room mate, and NerdJosh in AC…which would have driven me more if it was Slash but since I had only played AC like twice it didn’t mean much.

So, I say go. It’s about having a good time, not winning. I’d rather have a really close match than just trash somebody 3-0. Example: Me vs. Tony B at the last one was off the fucking hook. Every match was neck and neck, and it came down to me Bandit Revolvering him out of a jump on game 5 round 3. It was a great match. Tony didn’t want to enter AC because he thought he would just lose and he got 2nd, lol.

Anyways, GO!!! is my point.

And on that note, I’m taking MM’s for any amount up to 100$ in GGAC, or Slash. I’ll bring Slash incase anyone wants to practice for EVO.

I will also take 5$ MMs, best of 3, in Third Strike.

All I’m saying is that if I have to play someone from the camp in the 3rd round of winners I’m stabbing the first 20 people I see.

i need to level up in 3s, and it’s been a while since i’ve played (i didn’t even get to play more than like 5 casual matches at tga).

I’m down for 5$ best of 3 in 3s.

I’ll take that

=( o no work is getting in my way for this. Not good gotta come up with a plan
