I have heard (and experienced) that past versions were trash. I’ll try to keep an open mind though.
I hope you don’t want to play the game for little girls like Miyako and Ren…
jerry, i thought you played that game with one hand for miyako
Who? Nah, that’s not it.
dude, i play ciel and nanaya though.
jerry, it’s okay. even if you get turned on by nero’s deer and alligator i’ll still accept you as a human being.
if i played i would use teh maid ppl cuz they hit u with chairs ahaha
hey clayton, if you’re lurking i found the cd and uploaded the track you wanted here.
laputa is a awesome movie, but nausicaa is still the best.
you all need to mash and scream harder when we play. and let’s keep it real in my house. danchin needs to stop being so isr.
sorry i wussed out tonight. i’m so tired…
i potemkin bustered scott so hard, the ps2 started to bleed
We should have an IRC channel. To idle in. For miscellaneous ramblings. For file sharing (match vids, anyone).
Possible ideas for a channel name:
#SoCom@irc.efnet.net
#SoComFG@irc.efnet.net
#UIUC-ggxx@irc.efnet.net
I can idle and keep the chan open all day.
So yeah, quad day is coming up fast. We need to get some stuff done:
We still need this stuff for quad day:
(1) Table
(2) Chairs
(3) Additional Stuff, i.e. billboard or posters.
Just an idea I am tossing out here… I figured we can get some poster racks, or make ones, i m sure it wouldn’t be that hard, but it might not come out to look as good. Anyhow, I am buying some posters for my apartment room, just cuz I like to put up posters n all, and I bought a Melty Blood one, so we could use that before I hang it up in my room. We can also put up like a logo or something for the club on a simple poster background, and get it printed out. I wouldn’t mind putting in some money on this, since it is my last year nehow.
Also stuff we need to get done:
We need to re-register the club. Scott, if you don’t mind, could you get that done while you are there? Since you are a privileged member, you have access to the forms and all that stuff, you know… the non-discriminatory form.
Chris and Yosh could/should sign it, then they have the right to sign out equipment in our club name.
Also, should we change the club name? As long as it isn’t something really stupid like “Illini Dragon Punchers”. Yes Scott… I agree “IDP” is kinda amusing … but what it stands for just sounds retarded.
Lastly, we need to setup another tournament.
EBGAMES Tournament? Or Illinites Tournament?
Illinites doesn’t mind us using them as a venue, mainly because we do bring in a good crowd. We can have another Smash and Slash tournament, just to bring in lotsa people.
i’ve contacted brady and he seems to be cool with us holding a tournament at eb any time in the near future. i was thinking the afternoon of august 26th, which is the first saturday of the semester. we can inform people at our booth during quad day, and tell them to go sign-up at eb on green street. it’s a win-win situation for both us and eb. scott and i agree that the games at the tourney should be slash and 3s. i haven’t designed the flyer yet but i’ll do that sometime in the next few days (although i don’t really have any particular design in mind right now).
if you guys are okay with the following detail…
…i’ll get working on the flyer design tomorrow.
and i personally think we sound fine as society for competitive fighting games. this is only our second year of operation and i don’t think there is any real reason that we should change the name of the organization just yet. as for the logo, you could design it if you want to jerry, since you’re probably better at this kind of stuff than me in general. if anything, it might be better if you design the flyers too but i’ve done that for every tourney so far so lemme dabble with it. :lovin:
the poster idea sounds cool. i was originally thinking about designing something of our own and blowing it up at kinko’s but we’d probably better off using real posters. maybe somebody can buy some other posters if they are willing? i’ll buy one online if i have to but i wonder if i could find some kind of street fighter poster at a store instead.
i’ll leave administrative stuff up to you and scott.
but i’m still confused about tables. so we can rent one from somewhere? or do we have to buy it? cheapest one at target costs $28 when i checked online.
also… we definitely need a sponsored location for our weeklies. we’re all scattered throughout the campus this year and in my opition it would be in the best interest for all of us if we can get a building somewhere on the quad.
anyhow, our target this year should be to get as many people interested. and in order to do that, you all need to learn ways of a true winner. in short, y’all need to be more like me. jerry, bring your ps2 to campus. no excuses.
Why not evening? Say like 5 pm or 6 pm? Evenings are nice.
I am fine with ggxx/ and 3s. I would be more concerned with it if it were illinites, only because it is kind of on our end to deliver a bigger audience.
Well, our official name is Society for Competitive Fighting Video Games because the RSO administrator thought that society for competitive fighting games indicated we bashed each others heads in with hard objects… like knives.
I agree with buying a couple of posters. Although, if we do make a logo, I would want to blow that up in Kinko’s. Sorta like a club poster. Also, I know I suggested about the poster racks, but I don’t know very much about poster racks, so anyone else have ideas?
I am up for buying a table; however, I heard that what the other clubs do (or at least the asian ones I know of) is they buy the table, and then they return it the next day. So we can buy like a super cool table, and then return it.
About location, I still have this image of us playing downstairs in the Union by the DDR machines n stuff. So, I am still tossing that idea up. It is central to the campus anyways. Besides, there aren’t any places we can really stay that has a TV. We could just have our meetings at ISR or someplace… er… without the permission of the resident administrators, and also hoping that nobody takes up the rec room during the time we set.
Still no can do on the ps2. I am bringing my stick though. Besides, we have plenty of modded ps2s.
i’m down for the pool hall at the union. that place is quite nice. but there’s only one tv… and we don’t know if it’s lag-free or not. we could check it out in the next few days.
anywhere but isr. fuck that building and the people that live in it.
and afternoon is a much better option than evening. people at eb don’t want to clean up after us too late, especially on a saturday night. also a lot of people would like to go out and stuff in the evening, especially since it is the first weekend. most people (especially freshman) would want to do something other than play video games. i would say 3pm at the latest. 5 and 6 would be way too late in my opinion.
Should make a logo for the club. Then for a poster, put different chars from different fighting games to line up from the bottom on up to the logo.
Here is my idea. Warning: MSPaint.
Kinda reminiscent of the SF:AE box art.
Idea again! Final Revision!.
yeah… i guess i ll handle the logo.
i think the logo should be as minimal as possible. something like having a black silhouette of a character (i.e. ken doing a shoryuken) in the background and have lettering across it would be cool, i think.
i ll see what i can do. i generally prefer simpler designs anyways… too much stuff just makes it look messy.
