Yup. Didn’t bring shit this morning. Got my computer, but no dreamcast or anything. Will be in the lounge sleeping till lunch time. Then off to the doctor. See everybody Wed. Check back often this week to see if we got a meeting room!
Once again, I’m gonna try again: Can anyone change the cord on my stick? The cord that connects to the PS2 is all wack. I think it’s disconnected on the inside. I anyone can fix that sort of thing, let me know.
Hey wassup fellow hawaii gamers, My friends and I are doing a research project for our class on the language of gamers, gamers who play fighting games in particular, but the research isn’t limited to this sub culture by any means. Our focus is going to be how the language of gamers is such a large function of becoming apart of a gaming community and how understanding that language can ultimately affect rather you’re considered apart of that community or not. Where I need the help from everyone is I would like to know how everyone became apart of the gaming communities they are apart of now, rather it be for MvC2, Tekken Counter-Strike, or whatever the case. For example if someone taught you what all of the different terms meant and various things of that nature. Any other advice on potential points of interest that you think I should key in on would also be helpful. I’m open to ideas.
I’m doing this because I feel that gaming has become a major part of our culture yet many people don’t realize just how rich and involved the culture truly is. I want to try and show just how evolved the gaming culture has become. If your not sure on something please post and I’ll try my best to clear it up.
-Thanx in advance

Yo Team, post some more. I don’t even know what we say anymore…
Mostly the word used by us is “beasting.”
EDIT:
Hmmm, I misread your post there Chad. Oh well. But yes, this is the language of at least a few video gamers. We yell random things at each other and then laugh while everyone looks at us funny.
Go read my real post in the HBB thread.

VS. CLUB MEETING!
Alrighty then folks.
Next Week Friday!
Vs. Club Meeting #1
Friday, Feb 20; 2:00pm-10:00pm. Room CC 309 (campus center 3rd floor, near the lounge)
First meeting of the Vs. Club @ The University of Hawaii! We will have 2 TVs (one is wall mounted), and at least my DC. Prospective members, see if we can pool our resources and get a ps2, and good (preferably MAS) sticks.
Membership will be $15 per year. You will be allowed into all of our free play days at no charge (Tentativly $2.50 each day for non members), as well as the option to attend any other game days we may hold except for tournaments. Tournaments will be open to all who wish to test their might.
What we need:
People to come! (I need someone to come in with me at 2pm. I have class at 2:30 and there needs to be someone in the room at all times)
A PS2, and Sticks. (we need ggxx, ttt, sc2, cvs2, and ST or that new SF game)
People to come! Please tell your friends and plan ahead to be able to show up for at least some time next week. I especially need the core members to come in so we can discuss policies and future plans.
So ok everybody, we finally got this shit started, so get it going with at least some kind of bang!
If people don’t know where it is, then give me a call at 216-2213.
yes team syxx loves you, whatever the name and quality of english.
I doubt you’d remember but I met you at evolution 2002. We were both in the marvel losers line! :lol: You were telling me something about how you used hayato or something, shit I don’t remember. Never mind.
ryuROCKst/kyROCKxx/ryuFUCKsim…you’re my fucking hero. PERIOD IT.
I will actually be able to attend the meeting on Friday. However, I need someone to guide me to the room. I suck at directions and I only seen like, 2 buildings of that campus.
I probably be there around 230/3ish, hopefully.
More on the next week friday meeting
The room is next to the lounge. The room is 28’x18’ (504 sq ft). The setup can hold 37 people at a time.There will be 2 TVs with games running, and at least one computer to check email and watch match/combo videos.
HOWEVER, while we may have the room until 10pm, most likely people will be leaving to go to the Marvel vs Capcom 2 tournament at HB, which happens to be that night. The meeting will probably end around ~6pm as people who want to enter the Marvel tournament (me ) will be leaving around then. I will stay as late as possible if it is worth it, (ie enough people). If enough people are there at 3pm, and can stay late, and not go to the tournamnet, then I will stay late. The detail will be worked out later, and future meeting will be planned around tournaments so they will not conflict (like if there is a ddr tournament). One idea is to change meeting days (I will only be available on Wed night, but other days are possible if some officer can take responsibility for the room), another is to have more awesomer (<-- Iolani Education!) and better tournments (not likely) than HB.
In any event, this first meeting is going to be pretty much a free play day, and a marvel practice/warm up session. If shitty people actually show up, be nice so they will stay and pay some club dues!
Whens the next meeting?
No problem, About showing and giving away some tech. Isn’t that the purpose of the meeting?
No offense casual play is nice but a lot of times people dont get better or learn anything. They just repeat the same mistakes. I don’t mind going if we get some time to go to training mode.
Opponents getting better and learning tech only raises the bar for everyone to get better. To much people horde tech or just to stubborn to admit they dont know how to deal with matches. I admit even I still have matches I am learning. So if i make someone better and I get harder matches from them It only makes me better…
To bad more people dont share this view…and horde all the tech… Honestly, I dont give a fuck anymore whos the best or any of that shit . Its not even a Brians vs Blunt or whos the best anymore to me . I just want to get better for evolution. I rather spend time helping anyone that want to raise there game so I can get my game to another level .
Fuck the bullshit
enough ranting…
My 2 cents on that anyway…
When is the next meeting btw?
O yeah off topic, anyone play/ or know how to play Mortal Kombat? Thawn? Anyone?
Mortal Kombat 1- 5? If so let me know . I was debating playing some MK ULTIMATE on console but I don’t know if anyone still remembers how…
YK808: You down for some Human smoke infinites like back in the day at market city?
sup
hmm, I guess my last message never made it through. anyway, david. chad, tim, and ryan them know me from the brokeass games room. Just droppin by to see how everyone’s doin. I hope to be checkin here more often now that I got my account back. It feels good to be back (sorta), and I’ll probably be postin fan art fi you guys feel like givin feedback. Hope to meet the rest of ya. Oh yeah, I’m a little interested in joinin the gamin club. can someone fill me in on the details? thanks all:)
yep yep i remember.
ryu best man:cool:
YO! Ok next meeting before the big one are gonna be in the lounge still.
This friday will be a meeting, but it might end around 4 because monday is a holiday. Weird I know, but thats the kinda shit they do here at UH.
After that is next week wed. Monday is out cuz I gotta do some photo shit that will probably take me all day…grrr…
So same times as usual, and my same bullshit sticks as usual unless people want to bring a ps2 or something.
Whoops missed that MK post you made psx.
Yeah I’d be down. I’d need a couple hours to go remember all that bullshit though. The juggles and 10 hits and such. I never cared about fatalities and stuff so thank god I don’t have to look up that.
What console are MK1-5 on that you could bring? I’d love to play some Ultimate, or 3. None of that 3d shit mind you. Never even looked at those.
Yep, another Friday meeting tomorrow. However, we may be ending as early as 4pm, so if you want to come, come early!
I’ll be around from 9am for you early bird, and I’ll personally be around till about 230. Someone will probably be there to challenge (Wang?) hopefully, and I’ll be back at 345. If we are lucky they will end close at 6 as usual.
Next meeting after that will be Wed 9-6.
Starting next week, we will be getting the actual meeting rooms more often.
PS. I need help copying ( Someone has to pay some dues early so I can pay to have the flyers copied, I’m kinda poor right now ) and posting flyers. If you come tomorrow you can take a look at it. And I will be going around campus after the meeting to post them on the various bulletin boards around campus, and in the gameroom too if possible.
LA Tech > UH
Hmm…
YK808: This friday Host somekinda tourney. For me, perferrably 3S. Maybe host a 5 vs 5? i think if enough people can, a 3 vs 3 or just singles. I dont think it should take so much of the time though. Cause i’m sure some want to practice for mvc2 that night.
Also…an idea for the club considering you have real meetings and a room now. Maybe you some create somekind of system for the players. Such as apointed leaders to the main games (MVC2, CVS2, SC2…etc). Then when you have noobs to a certian game. This leader has to give advice (game mechanics, tricks, priority…) and assignments to their appointed game. Then like monthly have a tourney for each individual game to appoint a new leader/defend title. That way the really good people at specific games can help everyone get better.
Just an idea to kick around. Dont know if anyone would be interested.
Laters
Sound like a good idea. Especially like, the “leader” type thing. Everybody can teach the scrubs how to play a game, but it’s good to have a solid player giving out advice. That way, the noobs won’t get too confused when trying to learn. Dunno about “title defense,” but it sounds kinda fun.
I like see 3S 3 vs 3. Evil, Tim and KOG/Ricky (if KOG or Ricky show) vs Wang, Theo and Ken. Play for money! FUCK nevermind. If it go down, I cannot watch cause I work. GAY.
Shit I don’t get off till like 4 during the week
