"inv": TPWW Online Meet-Ups (Tester Thread)

[Kalyx triaD]

Just testing the waters for something that may or may not be something worth being sticky'd here. Basically major online meet ups, tournys, game launch meet ups, and anything else that appears greater than the usual stuff gets promoted here. Post game, summary, and yes... dates (exact or 'time windows'). In this thread posters can promote meet-ups, posting links to proper threads if needed. Other posters can keep updated and/or discuss things related to the thread.

Example:

Hosting Red Dead Redemption games 07/12-07/14. Mostly free roaming but suggestions welcome. Details here.

And that's that.

One could argue merely making such announcements in the game's official thread, but I don't know... maybe this would attract people just swinging by and skimming the thread thinking, "Hey, this sounds cool. I'll be ready for that." Also it would be promoting larger scale occasions.

Makem, what say you?

[Ogen]

Thats not even a sarcastic asking of Mackems opinion is it?

[Kalyx triaD]

If it's a bad idea, he'll kill the thread, nobody's betting the farm on this one. I think it would be cool, though.

[RoXer]

I had a similar idea a few days ago. Weird.

Basically, sticky a thread titled "TPWW inv: (Game title)(date)" or something like that. The meet-ups would be on weekends mostly. And during the weekdays we can float off ideas of game types to play and "hype" basically. I had this idea when you said you dled Perfect Dark actually.

[RoXer]

Also, I'm starting the SSFIV Tourney thread in a week, so there will be plenty to do. This might be a better idea down the line in the summer sometime.

[Kalyx triaD]

Kinda early for a SSF4 tourny, but with the new lobby in a meeting is lawfully obligated.

[RoXer]

Just starting the thread. Projecting the tourney to start on July 4th.

[alvarado52]

perhaps we should make a 'reigning champions' thread as well...seems abit fickle, but its a cool little way of having some recognition for your win. Also, alot of potential smack talking about challenges.

[RoXer]

Not necessary

[G]

hi

[alvarado52]

okay, lemme rephrase that....perhaps we should make a reigning champion thread where people actually earn their title via tourney, and defend it when challenged (you never did accept mine and Kalyx's, turds).

[RoXer]

Something like that? These threads don't work though, Blitz was right.

And I never recall being challenged.

[RoXer]

Wait, it's the last post. Fuck, I even replied.

My mind is slowly leaving me

[alvarado52]

oh we did, its in the MW2 thread somewhere, but i aint combing through the 60+ pages.

truthfully, that alone makes me think a champs page and inv page is worth it

some of these threads dedicated to the games get too big.

PS: that talent pool is alot of doo doo.

[Kalyx triaD]

We don't need a champs page. Something like this and the thread specifically for the event is enough.

[alvarado52]

why wouldnt we just have one? I dont think we NEED any page, but if we're gonna run some tourneys, why not give the winners some sort of recognition/forum to be challenged? I bet you most people have no clue who even won the SF4 tourney...i sure as hell dont. Nor did i know who won ANY of the tourneys.

[RoXer]

That was the only one.

[alvarado52]

That was the only one.

the SF4 tourney was the only one? Did you not just link me to a second tourney, where you won your 'tag titles'?

Maybe my math is off...

[G]

i think kalyx won the sf4 tournament, because i won like 800 rep points off of it or something.

[Kalyx triaD]

<<< TPWW SF4 Champ

[Kalyx triaD]

There was no actual MW2 tourny, though we did meet up a lot.

[bigdaddysuperfreak]

I think its a good idea and would love to participate in some MW2 tourneys at some point. It would definitely make it easier if I knew before hand when everyone was playing.

[alvarado52]

ugh! Whatever! Screw you guys! YOU ALWAYS SHOOT DOWN MY IDEAS! IM PART OF THE COMMUNITY TOO!

[Kalyx triaD]

You still get a cookie.

[RoXer]

Your math will go crazy when you find out G and I won with a 0-0 record.

[alvarado52]

Your math will go crazy when you find out G and I won with a 0-0 record.

youll go crazy when i put my nuts in yr. mouth

[My Nuts]

That's fucked up man

[Extreme Angle]

Yeah, really good idea tbh.
Instead of a champs page, why not just update the first post of this thread with the latest winner of a specific game?

[Funky Fly]

Honestly, when the SSF4 tourney happens, I am gonna be a pain in the ass to meet up with thanks to my ass scheduling and rampant sleeping problems.

[alvarado52]

EA has a good idea with the main page having the champs. That being said, due to my dominance over Roxer in 2k10, i declare myself the TPWW NBA2K champion. I'd definitely rock you fucks at UFC 09, but ill wait till 2010 to claim whats rightfully mine.

[Extreme Angle]

tbh Kalyx you're my rival, me and you 1 Vs 1...
tonight I want you in a STEEL CAGE MATCH!

[Kalyx triaD]

Our copy of the game doesn't work on the current 'Box. I'd have killed you, though. Maybe.

How's the online mode anyway?

[Extreme Angle]

Only played one match online, seems ok though...Lag wise.
Sorry about the drunken antics :lol:.
Being bored and buying cheap bottles of wine to play drinking games with was a bad idea.
