Didn’t you see the evo trailer? He wins by c.MK, lvl 3 ground tiger cannon for the chip damage.

Danny, you could’ve said something about Davis not getting BB. I had to ask Derrick what the deal was when I saw him on Saturday. I r sad now. :sad:
Shit, my bad 
I know I tried to post that we weren’t going to be able to get it, but this forum being the clusterfuck that it is now, it may not have gone through.
Basically we got fucked by the state budget and the admin upstairs have put a purchasing freeze on everyone, this of course happened after we had begun talking with Derrick, and I had received approval from my bosses (we were waiting on one more approval, which we didn’t see as a problem). The economists that live on the 5th floor are punching numbers to see whether or not we get any money next fiscal year (July). If we do, we will be getting at least one fighting game (whether KOF12 or Blazblu, I don’t know), some new cabinets, and probably some game for the kids.
Damn the dvd seems pretty good. Wish tekken wasn’t on the CvS2 DvD. ST, CVS2, MVC2 on one DVD woulda been money.
Damn, Evo looked hype as shit last year. Everybody from Davis has to head over to Vegas this year:rock:
For the tournament on Friday, is it going to be console or arcade?
Arcade. It’ll probably be double elimination, one game, first to 3 out of 5. Quarter finals and up will probably be best of 3.
It’ll be arcade. Yes, that means that it’s only two competitors at a time, but I’m not sure if we could get anything better at this point in time.
If you wanted console and want somebody to blame, just blame Marty because you can. He tends to ignore stuff like this anyways.
So, someone challenged me with Blanka and I picked Cammy, since I’m trying to learn her move attributes (I’m helping the Cammy forums get some starting ground). I spammed cannon drill/ spiral arrow a lot and cannon spike,so the Blanka player thought I was a scrub. But, uh, how can you think that when I cannon drilled your ultra and beat it? I know the properties. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. Anyway, he left before we could have a rematch. Asked him why he ducked out on me. Called me a bitch. I called him a coward. We had a rematch. I beat him 12 out of 12 times with other characters. What now?
In a Cammy vs Blanka match, cammy needs to turtle and react to Blanka’s moves. I guess he thought I was a runaway sort of person, but then I played Bison, Balrog, Vega, and Gief against him. I was always up in his face. Guess he couldn’t take the pressure.
tl;dr
Don’t make me rage for real.
Oh, and since you guys seem to be taking rage mail as some sort of trophy, I’ll start saving my rage mail from now on, so you guys can read to your pleasure. But, seriously. Wtf. Who saves their rage mail?
It’ll be on arcade, though I suppose if the turnout is really big, we could set up a console on the side for the prelims or something. In the past, and I mean past most of you were in like 5th grade, we ran four to five games simultaneously at once and didn’t have a problem finishing on time.
Seeing as how Marty is being a retard and starting this thing early in the afternoon I wouldn’t expect a huge turnout, especially from the non regulars and out of towners.
Does Cammy have an air throw? If so then you could throw blanka outta the ultra, which would indicate l33t skilz
Frickin everyone. That shit is hilarious.
She does, but I’m probably too much of a scaredy-cat to even try that out. Since you get in regular playing with Chun, Dan, how often have you been able to do that yourself? Just wondering.
And Sean, if I had a 360/PS3, I’d totally save my rage mail. I wouldn’t answer most of the time because I don’t want to waste scathing comments when they’d take two minutes to reach the original sender, but I’d try to find a way to input Sirlin’s “Playing to Win” link so much easier than typing out the URL every single time. If they don’t want to read… let them be scrubs.
Hey the thing is going to start at around 4:15-4:30 PM on Friday. That’s what we did last time and it worked out pretty well. It’s hard to find a time that suits everyone who wants to enter. Like I said earlier I dont want the gameroom being overcrowded with 50 people. Dan, what time are you gonna be there on Friday?
And anyone down for helping me out? I don’t wanna run this shit by myself like last time.
I only have two pieces of rage mail and they’re never going to be deleted. Andrew was trying to get me one by headbiting with Blanka over and over, but no one sent one.
Marty, I’m willing to help for the tourney.
alright wtf is this rage shit? I don’t have an xbox/ps3, so could someone explain please?
Apparently you can airthrow Blanka’s ultra. It’s just really hard to do so.
Rage mail happens when you beat your opponent online. The opponent then gets whiny and sends you a message online, usually calling you names and making fun of your gameplay such as “you got d/c’d because I don’t play against scrubby guiles who camp all day”. That example was one of the nicer ones too compared to the post above with the guy who called Sean a bitch for playing carefully with Cammy.
What games are we running? I don’t mind doing it, but paying tanaka $5 to beat me in CvS2 seems like something I could do any day << >>.
David going to be doing recording this tourney? And entry fee is $5 for sf4 correct?
gotcha, and I airthrew an Ultra from a blanka player yesterday. He was very scrubby, and I could tell when he was going to Ultra, so I don’t know how realistic an option airthrowing an ultra would be with a high quality blanka player.
But it is fun.
Also It looks to me like Guile’s airthrow may have more range than Chun’s so it could be an effective tool for Marty or you.
CvS2, MvC2, SF3s, SFIV
I hope David records the tourney.
Yeah, agreed. I can imagine how cool it’d be to grab a heroic man beast surrounded by electric hitboxes and throw him back to the floor.
And I’m starting to not play Guile as much anymore.
:shake:
Bison: “You see, your father has been the milk of my business. But even milk has an expiration date.”
Still looking for people to help. I guess all you guys are afraid of getting blamed cuz its easy to talk shit when you’re facing no pressure 
Hey Dan, here’s the link to guile’s airthrows. start it at about 2:45.

And what price of the entry fee should the other 3 games (cvs2, mvc2, and 3s) be? And will we put them on free play, or set them to one token per play (so that we make money as well).
i say 2-3 bucks each
