LOL you cant PM marty, his srk handle got fucked up by srk hahhaa. I had similar problems last week then just said fuck it and messaged him on facebook
I’d donate if it could help keep this place open. This was one of my favorite spots, and one of my favorite memories last year was teaming with the owner (never caught his name) and Vanao in a random 3s 3v3.
Lol shit, you were there? Damn, we were looking for you! This is me and my roommates (as well as Cha0tix’s) last time there for freeplay. Oh well, maybe next year or something haha.
Just thought of sharing that Ive recently discovered a chat room for Japan SSF4(PS3) and its really awesome since its a community with a good number of active players ranging from total beginners to top players(zangitan frequents the chat, and i guess a bunch of other people im not sure who they really are), ive been getting good practice with a lot of characters that i dont really get to fight often(good ones too), and i get to ask questions and discuss on how to improve my gameplay etc, its a bonus that most of them are real nice too, especially towards beginners/people learning the game or matchup, so far i havent experienced any shit talkin or people givin destructive criticism lol(im sure there are times where they do that)… granted the whole thing is in japanese and sometimes it can be hard for me to grasp the content when the chat moves too fast.
They also hold online ranbats(beginner/open) every week…
Damn that’s really nice! Too bad I don’t know Japanese or I would be ALL ON THAT seriously. That’d be a lot more help than the character forums cause you get to talk to grandmasters about specific issues.
Also, if you’re in Japan, go to Shibuya’s Shinjuku Sportsland. Seriously, you won’t regret it. It is awesome, the owner is fuck awesome, it’s cheap as hell on Thursdays/Sundays, and you will get A LOT BETTER. I have lost count of how many grandmasters I’ve seen there: TKD, Mago, TUC, Neurosis, PPN, Kirisuto, Fuudo, etc.
