You think I’d need to? Pft. You’re not ready for my Hawk strats.

I’m already feeling good about '09 - I woke up this early and I’m not hung over. Also, windows xp is gone and now I’m running fedora? :lol:

donnie, you know what’s up. :tup: I’ll be back this coming sunday cause I start work monday. ST boot camp sounds ok to me.

jaton’s right, he doesn’t need it, the new hawk dive makes things easier :arazz:.

LOL. For some reason, that really made me laugh. I’m picturing people doing stupid things while drunk, and then I’m picturing Justin with a drunken smile on his face, talking shit while sitting at his computer alone, installing Fedora. “Take that, windows. You no kernel having bitch.”

For people who have TvC who do you think is good? Right now I feel like Chun Li is probably the best, but cashin, tenkaman, ryu, hurricane polymer, and alex are also quite good. I feel like the team rocket girl and the big characters are not good. And the rest of the characters I have either not tried or don’t have an opion about yet.

[Arcas_V]

wow srk is serious about making you read the rules… that timer was annoying.

Donnie, I would if I wasn’t completely broke and in need of gas money. Hopefully I’ll get a job soon.

Speaking of money. Final Round is March 13-15 in Atlanta. Who is in? The guys in Bristol say it is a 4 hour drive for them and google says it is 5 from Bristol to Atlanta. It’s about an hour and a half tops from Blacksburg to Bristol or from my house to Bristol. Anyone want to go and think they can afford it?

I really like roll, and the sword guy from the T side. So, you should probably get some games in richmond.

Too bad you didn’t make it up here for new years. We didn’t do shit. Just got drunk at my place and watch Dick Clark… which was hard post heart attack.

Are you free this Saturday or Sunday, you can come visit and I promise you won’t get towed this time. On a related subject there is once again visitor parking at my apartment.

edit: sword guy on the T side is karkas or something like that. He is the Chipp of the game and he seems pretty good.

You mean amazing. His qcf + a (b or c) is an awesome parry-esque move that you can spam out and catch people off guard with. It has amazing recovery and you can immediately go into combo. Roll is just ridiculous, she has so many different combo set ups off of dash in (or jump in) A (like 6 times) then launcher then combo or broom swing into super into another super, or her charge back sweep move into super. Not to mention her water bucket attack makes opponents slip on the floor if the initial move doesn’t hit the opponent. I’m not sure if I can come down there this weekend. However Everett has been making trips up to see me, and I have a gnarly huge t.v. that doesn’t have any game lag so you should probably come up when he does. It makes SF2HD fun when the characters are as big as you are haha.

On an SF2HD note: I have my room mate’s ps3 now, so I want to play you christian! I’d also like everyone on here with a 360 to sometime this weekend get on so we can have a big party and everyone play… well against donnie haha. Speaking of Donnie, I’d like to have rematches soon, I feel like I might be able to do something this time then just get a round each match. After playing this for awhile I don’t know how I feel about ST because there are some things I think shouldn’t work, and there are things that do work that make no sense. Even though it’s hypocritical of me to say since half the shit I use to win with Gief really doesn’t make sense (right Everett?) But yeah, big games hopefully this weekend.

You mean his super counter? Or does he have another one?

[Iceman]

Christian, does that offer apply to me too I’d like to play you in STHD, but I bet I’d have to play on Pad =( I’m not sure if I’m going to nova or not tomorrow.

Corey, sure we’ll get a rematch in sometime. Do you want to play a lot of Dee Jay or do you want me to play other characters?

Well I want you to mix it up. You obviously have a solid understanding of the game. So I just need to practice with you to try to see what works and what not. I’m trying to take this game seriously for a change.

Yes I want to make it to this! I’ll try to make sure I have enough to go.

edit- Corey, not sure if you still check last.fm but I “shared” a Titus Andronicus song with you… they’re touring with los campesinos

[Iceman]

The bad news. I’m probably not going to make it to nova The good news, I should be in Blacksburg if yous guys wants to play some HD remix, in person. Jaton? Everett?

There are three tournaments I really want to go to. SinSation in NoVa on Feb 7-8, Final Round in Atl on Mar 13-15, and if there is another Memorial Day tournament in NoVa, that one too.

I’m going to sinsation because everyone in my area is. I’ll probably ride with them… Well who am I kidding probably not but I might go. I also think everyone around here are doing a huge carpool to final round that I might actually jump on for.

[ST_Vega]

What day, Donnie?

I didn’t care too much for them at first but after listening to the album I like them a lot. It’s like they have the big band sound but in the context of punk.
I’ll get on later.

Donnie, whenever should be fine with me.

[PsiPhi]

I’m going to go ahead and say yes on sinstation as it is like 5min from my apartment seeing as how it is on lee highway and I live on lee highway and all.

[Iceman]

Everett and Jaton: How does tomorrow sound? Justin?
