Went to the Super-Turbo.net forums just now, and got this image displayed. Could Alex finally be doing something to his page? After 6 months of delay, could he finally be putting up the player profiles? Will the full working version of the hit box displayer finally go live? Will the random match-up generator finally feature detailed strategies? Will the video archive featuring our hilarious past matches be made available through that page? Will it make a difference at this point?
Dare I dream? I’ve been hurt before.
“New features go online tonight, bitches!”

*I would have provided a more solid date, and checked the wording, but even the backup of the old SBC forums haven’t been up for over a month.
Taking a pulse once more. Anyone want to game at my place this weekend? If so, what day(s), and what time are you free? Pablo and Elias have converters, so I’m especially interested as to whether you guys can attend. The rest of you freeloaders are welcome, as always. Speak up, or else I’ll just sit around and get fat by myself.
If you secure a go ahead from Beasley in writing, I’ll teach you everything that I know about Claw. All that I know about ST, I learned from Beasley and Daikatana. So I would only feel comfortable with passing on that knowledge with their approval.
Sunday, what time? When can games start? Do either of you two have PSX->DC converters? I’ve got one. . .along with a DC pad. I know that Paul has a DC stick. If you’re both committed to a Sunday session, I’ll PM you the address and my contact info.
Since neither of you have been to my place before, know that I’ve only got 1 TV. So if the attendance (more than 4 in the rotation) demands multiple setups, someone haul one along.
I can bring my TV which was voted favorite at Random Select by all who played on it, lol. And also I can start as early as 11AM or whenever you’re ready, My stick is no longer DC capable =( but I will see what I can do eh? Keith I wanna face ur Claw cause I’ve been doing well against Claw’s lately and I wanna see how I stack up.
Dude, my ST game is almost as pathetic as my Marvel game right now. Since Random Select, I’ve only played ST on 2 occasions. I’ve been dealing with taxes and other responsibilities as of late. This is part of the reason why I now want to play some more.
When the match vids from the last tournament are made public, take note of how many times I go “what!?” in response to an unintentional sky high or roll. Seriously, sky high? Who does that? Why would anyone do that? I couldn’t even reversal for the life of me. At one point, I tried to back flip through a tiger shot, and slid into it instead. If I could hit more than one button at the same time, it’s fucking OVER. And I’m moving to straight city.
Brent and Paul, I’ll PM you guys within the next few minutes.
I live in North Seattle. Haller Lake, to be more exact. If it’s not too far for you, you’re welcome to join the session. I can PM you directions. Do you have any PSX->DC converters or DC sticks? If we don’t get enough sticks with DC connections, this’ll be a disaster waiting to happen. I might have to send some minions to steal a couple from Pablo.
Saturday works. I’m picking up some negativity from people for the fact that I want to learn Claw. After playing low tier for so long on Marvel, I figured I would start at the top with ST, but maybe I should start with a character who generates a little less hate?
You should play whomever you want to. Mandel uses O. Sagat who is probably the best character in the game along with his Chun and no one has a problem with it. People aren’t that serious about character selection.
I think Seattle ST will never progress until they can handle walldives for all their characters, so go for it! I think you’ll eventually find Claw is pretty boring to use though, I used to use him in Season 1 until I picked up Barlog.
Yeah, dude. Claw sucks. If you pick Bison, you have fast fly and unfly combos with anti air and you need to do that snapback with T. Hawk. I’m pretty sure O. Sagat’s AHVB sucks so you need to pick Blanka to rush down. I like the options you have with Dhalsim’s tri jump and runaway capability, but if you really want to pick up a good character, you need to pick Ken because his typhoon hail is too buff.
