Utah Thread: Arcade Edition @ GameGrid

Thanks, i’ll probably go pick it up in a bit if thats cool with you, i’ll call you before i do.

I’ve been thinking of maining C. Viper or Ryu for next Ranbat, what do you guys think?

lol @ coldshadow…

yah I love playing with Rufus because he is so aggressive man… @ Gus

What kind of "stick" are you talkin about Andy lol ??

All in good time I’m sure. Good Ryu’s online always destroy me. Pretty sure you’ll eventually get that way too.

I’m considering Akuma for a secondary. But he’s pretty tough to do well with, because of his low life. I nearly perfect’d a gief with him then suddenly ultra and 1 lariet and I was done. Same thing happens against almost anyone though really. I can be doing really good but 1 ultra or big combo and I’m pretty much even.

I can only imagine what its like for Seth.

thats who im playin now thomas is seth its pretty much a bitch with only 800 health but he has way good offense i hope they dont ban him from a bunch of shit cause justin wong thinks he is the best.

Hey strider are you gustavo??? cuz i think i played you online man haha

I just got my SE today but the buttons dont respong worth shit!!! but my sanwa’s are comin in soon so watch out for the next ranbat bitches. just kidding im the bitch…

Man, I have such a hard time doing focus cancels into qcf motions on the stick.

I don’t see how people do this in such a short span of time with the stick. :dp: - :r::r: - :hcb:
Or same thing but ending with :qcf::qcf: for ryu’s fadc.

Are there any short cuts I’m missing? Other than the :df::df: for the dragon punch. Because I feel retarded. I’m having such a hard time with fireball motions on the stick and I don’t feel like I’m getting any better. Even after doing all of Akuma’s trials.

Thomas,

Focus on the movements, not the speed. That’s my problem. Watch Phil/Andrew do it, they are pretty good. Wade’s also good. . .as Player 2 side.

I hope you guys are holding casuals and shit, trying to get better. I think that helps the community alot.

I need alot of help to run the next tournament guys, I’ll list the things I need help with. Please PM me what you guys can contribute (PM me, please don’t post shit b/c I will lose track):

  1. Need LCD televisions with sound/speakers, also has to support HDMI/component. Preferably no DLP or CRT. Also nothing bigger than 40 inches (that’s what she said). I don’t want you guys taking the risk of damaging your LCD and transporting 40 inches is a bitch for you guys.
  2. Xbox 360’s with SF4 with unlocked characters (don’t worry about Seth only Zach is gay enuf to use him)
  3. Sticks (just bring yours to the tourney, if you don’t want ppl to use them, then say so. . .we need to talk Wallace)
  4. Does anyone know a way to rent out or borrow PROJECTORS? HELL YEAH!
  5. Please PM fast, real fast about what you can do
  6. Pizza will be ordered for this next ranbat, courteousy of me, if anyone here works at a pizza joint and can give me a hook up, I would sincerely appreciate it.

YES, I have a big vision for this next ranbat. Which I don’t think will take alot of work, as long as ppl lend a hand. You guys have been real great in the past about contributing. Just need ppl to step up a lil’ earlier this time.

Also, I’m really fucking serious about ppl wearing clean clothes, taking showers, wearing deodorant, and wiping their asses before this next tournament. Really guys, I’m serious. I’m a dick. I’ll stop inviting ppl to ranbats if you don’t take care of your hygiene. It’s fucking gross sometimes. . .I work with ppl who shit themselves and my house smelled like those ppl last week.

About EVO, the Bleyls, Andrew, Brian, Thomas, Zach, Nathan, Zach, Andy, Matty have shown the most interest and look like almost for sure they will be going. Phil, Renzo, Kelly, Kyle, Mike are on the maybe list.

I have made serious plans already to go. Brian has thrown out that he will be more than happy to drive and it seems he has a full car already, thanks alot Brian.

70 dollars in the pot for top 3 finishes this Ranbat. Seriously, I know everyone here thinks we are all working for third place b/c Andrew/Brian has it on lock.

Guess what. You guys are pussies. Jacob/Kelly when are you two dudes gonna step it up and not get RoundHouse kicked by Michael Phelps or get swept by JCVD. How about Renzo/Gustavo, you Latino’s need to stop choking and play the way you do in casuals. Mike. . .you play like 80 hrs a day. . .where you at? Dana. . .you need to punch these guys in the game. . .not my cheap IKEA table. Matty, stop being a bitch and whiffing. Thomas. . .you just suck dude.

I believe they are the two MOST solid players in Utah NO DOUBT, but I don’t think they are unbeatable. Everyone talks alot of game but in the end they walk away with the money. Dude, ONE OF THEM USES GUILE! And one of them doesn’t even have a DRIVER’S LICENSE! :slight_smile: ROFLOL

Can’t wait for the next Ranbat.

Awesome Fei Long: [media=youtube]gJViqlfkKE4[/media]

I’m 80% percent sure (unless something drains my money) I’m going to Evo this year for the first time but I’m flying. I’m not driving to Vegas again and I’m going with my girl. Evo is going to be so good this year. word. Hey andy you got that octagon yet?

Andy, I’ll bring my 360 fo sho. I only have a 27" CRT TV though, so no on the TV.

And I’m working on my Rose game, still. I may try out a little 'Sim, too, just for the heck of it, but I think my Rose game is getting better. I still need to develop a solid anti-grappler strategy, but it’ll be there in time for 1.4.

GG to everyone last night at Triplet casuals. Chase…DUDE!!! Ken is getting better…kara throws, pokes… John…the Abel throw game is pretty mean. Andrew…those were some hard-fought matches; thanks for always being willing to practice with your main so we can all get better. And lay off the MLB '09 The Show and get back to SFIV! :wink:

Everyone, my friend has an extra Hauppauge 1212 PVR he wants to get rid of. Ordered one from Dell, and got an email saying it was out backordered until the 20th. So he ordered from Amazon and was going to cancel the other order… it showed up on his doorstep this morning. Still in the package and brand new. Don’t even think he has taken it out of the shipping box yet.

He wants the price of it minus shipping. So $210 or something. You too can be a badass nerd with SFIV videos on youtube. Let me know if interested.

I’m about tapped out hardware wise. Only LCD I have is 46" in my room, and it has a fuck ton of equipment hooked up to it and a clusterfuck of wires running behind it. Would be a major pain to haul that anywhere and then get it hooked back up. Don’t even know how I would get that thing in my car.

And please people, listen to Andy when he says to shower and wear clean clothes! When we got back from lunch last ranbat the smell instantly hit me in the face like a sack of fucking doorknobs when we walked in. I know with 30 people in a small room shit is going to smell a little musty, but it was pretty damn bad.

And yeah, Rufus is going to eat JCVD’s sonic booms for lunch next Ranbat. And I wish I had the chance to play Andrew last week. We played at 1.2 and it was a really good game even though I lost… Much rather play Andrew than that scrub Jacob lol

Yo,

www.gamestop.com to find TE STICKS FOR 360/PS3 for 149.99. Use the coupon SAVER for free shipping. I just bought another TE stick for 360 AND I DON’T KNOW WHY!!!

Did TL buy it. . .or was it you? I’ll offer him 20 bucks and some crack.

Also, I want projectors to display ppl playing. Don’t worry, ppl will be playing on a television, the tv will hook up to the projector and display what’s going on. I know how big of a bitch it can be to play on a projector b/c of the size, so no worries :). More hype if ppl can see what’s going on, now crowded around Kelly’s nuts. . .dirty nuts.

had

Oh dang, are the TE sticks shipping pretty quick? I still am waiting for my parts to come for my custom stick from lizard lick.

Just listen to OutKast

[media=youtube]Mp2hvM2LL_4[/media]

Wade,

Please. . .oh good, I’m glad you are finding me a projector and not selling me one, afraid the shit you sell me might break like the last 3 TE sticks you sold me :frowning:

Bobby, is hooking me up w/ speakers too.

Yo that 26 inch LCD would be legit, does it only have HDMI or does it have component too (you know the red, blue, green w/ extra red/white for sound). Get some cheapass speakers too man. . .like the one that only has 2 speakers. You shouldn’t bring your nice speakers to the tourney.

had

no its hdmi only but i can bring my xbox and hdmi if i need to, does hauppage have hdmi or only component(i know what that is u clown haha)

i have that little cheap computer speaker set that i hook up to it

i might pick up one of these sharper image projectors i found the reviews say the picture isnt very good but its only 100 bucks retail and it should be good enough for what we need it for

I dont do crack but thanks for the offer lol

im gonna pick up this projector tonight its 65 bucks

http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/product.asp?order_num=-1&SKU=16010570

Those projectors are going to look like shit. Is it even worth it? 720p/1080p projectors can be series monies.
