Toronto March thread 2005

Rofl about the London tourney. I remember Roo and Mike were talking shit in Korean to the Toronto players without realizing they were Korean, too. Then the Toronto guys are like “guys, we can understand what you’re saying”. Also, tourney on LVL4 MVC2 = top tier. Man that was fun. Then I remember you guys came to Ace for a bit and someone offered u guys weed. Funny thing is, the drugs is what keeps that arcade going. Each night me and my friend go, we get asked if we have weed. About a week ago, the coin guy was talking to me about setting up tournaments there, and he pardoned himself for being stoned lol. That guy is dope. Good times.

lol you forgot to mention the 4 dollar prize for first place that Jack (god) won.

feel the raft !

CvS2 team advice:

I want to play K or P groove, with a team of Kyo/somebody/R2 Cammy. Somebody I’m thinking Rollento (only if I play P Groove), or Geese (either groove). Any tips, or alternatives?

Edit: Maybe Vega? He’d fit in there, wouldn’t he?

I’d go with Geese personally and he’s best in either groove. I used to use him way back and he’s solid. Has a bad matchup against Sagat though I find.

Rolento is generally better in C or A Groove but could work in P or K I’m sure.

P Cammy can be vicious but K is probably the better way to go unless you can parry like a pro. JDing has less risk if you miss and a raged rushdown Cammy can be painful.

Edit: Vega is always a good choice too. A top player(Makoto?) in Japan uses P Kyo/Vega/Cammy actually.

ah, the memories.

Slumber party at Kin’s

all-you-can-eat sushi

random shit that only happens in London (lightsabers?)

what time is it?

Chicago X 2, EVO

oh man, too many good times to count. Brings a tear to me eye :sad:

College/Spadina

psh. fine.
we’ll team up w/ frank :clap:

Yeah, college and spadina. There’s also a popeyes there. Also… don’t go there late night… weird, weird things happen there. Weird people at night :stuck_out_tongue:

Speaking of slumber party…
Where’s Andy?

the crazy lady at stc.

OMFG I forgot about her.

:rofl:

Reminds me of this woman in a wheelchair who used to go to DTFL. She’d always have to park it (yes, she could walk just fine) behind the SC2 machine, and she was always really rude about it, bu we couldn’t say shit because she was always there to see some guy on staff, there. I remember the prize for one of our earlier tournaments was supposed to be a date with her…

o_O

P-Rolento is a better choice. down parry,low mk XX batons is crazy

TOSF memories:

-$2 extra in entry fees at the first tourney for pizza. Then half the people don’t get pizza.

-drunkinB running back to the hotel in Montreal ahead of all us so he could jerk off.

-The arcadekid/C-Royd flame war before T2

-The srwilson flamewar after T2

-Jonstar’s mom’s god tier notes. “I give permission for Jon to go to the Philly.” or “I give my son permission to goto Chicago.” (no where on the note does it have his name).

-leaving all the food garbage in the other room in MWC so their room stinks. Both rooms ignoring Ian when he arrived at 2am. Losing paper rock scissor to Jon and having to go into another restaurant to ask where Chi Chis is. Jon’s giant pink drink.

to be continued…

That is the best BK ever. 1.69 Sandwhiches everyday.

OMG that lady had some fucking problems. She would play cvs2 and then when she lost she would just sit and stare at the screen for like 5 mins until Ed tells her to get the fuck out of here. Whatever happened to the black STC shoto scrub that used balrog, ken and Ryu, he was the future :clap:

Oh shit, that pizza was pure rape. But then again, the first tourny was FREE PLAY.

Pop quiz:

Who were the top 3 players in the first EVER VA CVS tournament.? (before the pizza one)

1 ian’s brother cam.
2 greg (chunnnerv) aka the Godfather of TOSF
3 was it devin? (firefists)

wasn’t 3rd lawrence or spencer?

correct, on all 3 counts

And who were the top 3 teams at the first cvs team tourny (where mtl showed up for the first time)

Bonus points: What characters did each team member use?

I am going to wildguess cam with guile and rog
chunner with chun and rog
devin with r1s and ryu.

PLay K-groove cause its more forgiving than P-groove.

Kyo/Blanka/Sagat
