RoXer 07-25-2009 12:43 PM

Are you guys really going to do it? Because I was just about to coin flip when I got on.

All of you, Funky/Fignuts, Ant/Drakul tell me what's going on.

RoXer 07-25-2009 12:43 PM

And Hansey I guess too if you still wanna give this a shot.

RoXer 07-25-2009 12:44 PM

And G, aren't you selling this?

Why not sell it to Super V?

RoXer 07-25-2009 12:45 PM

Also, Super V:

ALSO, why would I do that when I can get around $50 in credit at Goozex for it.

Boomer 07-25-2009 01:55 PM

Amazon is selling the stick I use for 50 with free shipping. Pretty damn good deal if I say so. I got my first at Gamestop for 40 with tax, and just had a 25 dollar gift card to kill, so figure I'd jump at getting another in hopes of getting some good home games going.

Y2Ant 07-25-2009 08:42 PM

Our fight will be done by midweek, do not fret.

Funky Fly 07-25-2009 09:59 PM

I have no idea what's up with Figbutts. Apparently he hasn't been home in days. We had a timespan set up for Wednesday, but I was busy that morning and didn't see him on in the afternoon before my appointment.

Kalyx triaD 07-25-2009 10:10 PM

You guys are off the chain.

Funky Fly 07-25-2009 10:18 PM

I dunno, I have been doing fuck all durnig the last 2 days but he's not been home.

Kalyx triaD 07-25-2009 10:19 PM

Beat his ass when you get the chance.

RoXer 07-25-2009 10:22 PM

Tomorrow morning I'm advancing

Kalyx triaD 07-25-2009 10:23 PM

You're the boss.

G 07-26-2009 09:31 AM

Should've bet 1000 on this not finishing.

RoXer 07-26-2009 11:46 AM

Everyone is disqualified.

I win.

G 07-26-2009 11:48 AM

Nah, if anything it'll be you and Kaylx in the final.

RoXer 07-26-2009 12:09 PM

Our first **MARQUEE MATCHUP** ends in a coin flip. How embarrassing, And 3 of us have "dropped out" or whatever. Fuck all you guys.



Round 3



RULES:

- Higher seed fights on the RIGHT side of the screen. (Meaning, if you are the lower seed, you must create the lobby and send the invite to your opponent. Example: #16 is on the left, #1 is on the right)

- Time Limit: 99, Rounds: 5

- Best of 7

- 4 character minimum OR you can only use the same character twice. However you want to describe it.

TIPS:

- Clean up your connection. Do what you can, at least. Stop downloading porn/movies/whatever. Tell your MOM to get off the computer, you're playing in a fighting video game tournament for an internet wrestling message board. I think the only one who had an iffy connection anyway was Drakul and I think it's because he lives in wherever he lives. We shouldn't have too much of a problem connecting to each other. I don't think.

- Bust out the legal pad and crayon. The only way we can get your results is by your first hand account. So after a match, try to do your best to dramatically recreate what just happened. Don't concentrate so hard on your summary that it distracts you from the game, but a little effort would be appreciated. Sure you could say "I lost 4-2" and be done with it, but a little drama would be appreciated. It also helps to keep track of who you used, who they used and what happened.

- Take a break between matches. Like 2-6 minutes or so. Take a breather.

Byes:

9. Blitz - Luneknight (1-1)
10. Drakul - Drakulbites (1-1)


Brackets:

1. Super V - Chiszmo (1-0)
vs.
5. Funky Fly - Busted Funk (2-0)

WOW, first he gets here on coin flip and now Funky may be able to advance even firther because Super V is too cheap to buy the game. How are you so good at this game, yet don't own it? Something is fishy there.

2. Kalyx - Kalyx triaD 360 (1-0)
vs.
3. RoXer - RoXer1 (1-0)

**MARQUEE MATCHUP** I'm not going to beat him. I practied my Akuma recently in champion mode but it still won't be enough to beat him.

4. Fignuts - Fignuts82 (0-1)
vs.
8. Boomer - jtboomer2 (1-1)

Boomer may be saved by the skin of his teeth because Fignuts is Too Sexy Brian Christopher and doesn't want to play anymore. Or will he surprise us all and jump back in? Loser is eliminated.

6. Hasney - Hasney (1-1)
vs.
7. thecc - falloftheage (1-1)

thecc can also advance without putting in the disc because Hasney's internet is screwing with him. Loser is eliminated.

BRAGGING RIGHTS:

I don't really have to do this since we're barely playing the required matches, but I figure once you're eliminated you can have one last match to decide where you end up in the tourney. This match is to claim that you're not a big piece of shit. Loser gets last place. Winner gets...second to last. BUT NOT LAST AT LEAST!

11. G - sgand (0-2)
vs.
12. Ant - TonyRomoASL (0-2)

RoXer 07-26-2009 12:11 PM

Please send a PM to your opponent setting up a time to play. It's not fucking rocket science.

RoXer 07-26-2009 12:13 PM

Kalyx has to beat me, and then probly Funky, and then he sits on his ass for about 9 weeks while everyone else is playing, and then most likely has to face me again. Where I'll have to beat him twice.

Fignuts 07-26-2009 05:00 PM

Prolly not gonna be home very much, the next couple weeks. Might be better off taking me out altogether.

Super V 07-26-2009 05:40 PM

I used to have it for PS3 but traded it in for BlazBlue. Friend loaned me Xbox360 version, I thought this tournament would be quicker.

Super V 07-26-2009 05:42 PM

Funky can PM me a date/time, I'll see what I can do.

Super V 07-26-2009 05:47 PM

BTW if he never PMs me because he's too busy "being out and getting laid" you can DQ him and I can advance.

If that's the case, Funky Fly would be the real winner. ;)

Funky Fly 07-26-2009 06:28 PM

Nah, I got nothing going on right now. All my awesome shit was last week during Edfest. Unless, my boys call me up with some house party or some shit, you'll probably see me on playing UFC or Splosion Man.

Kalyx triaD 07-26-2009 11:46 PM

I'll try to get on later for our series, RoXy. Been wanting to try a revamped Ken offensive, he might have some use after all.

RoXer 07-27-2009 03:31 PM

Probably Tuesday night/Wednesday for me

Kalyx triaD 07-28-2009 01:46 AM

Okay.

thecc 07-28-2009 02:02 AM

Hasney is out. His ISP is still fucked up. :(

Kalyx triaD 07-28-2009 02:05 AM

What a mess, we should vet connections before the next tourny.

#BROKEN Hasney 07-28-2009 02:47 AM

Kinda mentioned it before I was entered >_<

Kalyx triaD 07-28-2009 02:51 AM

SHUT UP

Boomer 07-28-2009 08:38 AM

We obviously have a ton of conflicts. Honestly think it should all go on postponement and we should rethink how the tourney works. Maybe like a round robin so people could just go ahead and play matches if they found people they hadn't played online. Dunno.

Fignuts 07-28-2009 09:33 AM

Seriously, like I just got paid again, so I won't be on for another week prolly.

G 07-28-2009 09:54 AM

This game is $20 now. Might go pick up a copy or two and flip on Goozex.

Boomer 07-28-2009 10:06 AM

20 bucks is ridiculous.

Funky Fly 07-28-2009 10:08 PM

So there's still a chance I can fight Super V then.

Just played G, 2 minutes ago... and got my ass kicked. His style is weird as shit. Like he has good zoning and has mastered the cross up and and will trap you if you are not careful, but if you're pressuring him you can see him go for a move but mess up the input and his combos are still on the simpler side and it's easy to chain a bunch of hits together if he gives you an opening.\

Thought I had that last match, but I got caught in the cross up trap from hell and went from half a bar to dead while he only needed one hit.

G 07-28-2009 10:12 PM

5-1 :D


Yeah, I'm a total spaz when I'm pressured. It's like I don't know what to do, and my hands get sweaty and I can't hit any special moves. Funky gave my morale a complete overhaul.

Kalyx triaD 07-28-2009 10:57 PM

Not playing tonight. Fucking pissed about all of the speakers in the Surround Sound set being mute save one, so now my Street Fighter playlist comes out mono - and fuck that. Tried to fix it and nothing works, so when I play I have to play like I'm on some 1950's TV. I could still play tonight under those conditions and play music off this comp but I'm pissed. Damn kids were over and I know they did some shit to the set.

Swear this shit didn't go down at Apt.25.

Drakul 07-29-2009 03:35 AM

I beat Ant 4-2.

RoXer 07-29-2009 11:01 AM

Great.

You don't play Ant.

Super V 07-29-2009 09:47 PM

OMG. Just cancel the tournament RoXer, too much unreliability. I won the tournament, Drakul is runner-up (in my experiences anyway).

Why not just click on that link that was posted and buy it for $20?

RoXer 07-30-2009 12:58 PM

Tonight Kalyx.

Let's do it.

Kalyx triaD 07-30-2009 02:55 PM

I'll hop on after class, may have to boot my brother off - not an easy task.

God damn storm shudders were taken down so the fucking street lights are gonna blare in the house (no curtains). Use this distraction to score some upsets. And I'm still pissy about the stereo thing.

RoXer 07-30-2009 04:19 PM

I guess the only other matchup that can take place is Fignuts/Boomer.

And I know Fignuts is still online, I see him all the time. So he can't play the "I'm busy" card.

Boomer is in the middle of a move, different story.

I wish you two could honestly ATTEMPT to play your match.

RoXer 07-30-2009 04:21 PM

I huess Super V can play his match too. And so can Hasney.

You know what, fuck it. All of you can at least ATTEMPT to play your matches. You're just a bunch of lazy peices of shit.

G 07-30-2009 04:58 PM

I bet this tournament finishes using the 3rd iteration of Sf4.

Don't worry about it, you're eliminated.

Kalyx and I are fighting tomorrow. I havenlt played since Thursday.

I like my chances.

Fignuts 08-03-2009 01:20 AM

Yeah, should have had this tourney 3 weeks ago, when I was on crutches and stuck at the house. Now I am making up for lost time.

CONTROVERSY

RoXer 08-05-2009 02:47 PM

Kalyx did not win.

I'll concede, but it was not a clean win.

RoXer 08-05-2009 02:47 PM

Don't believe him.

G 08-05-2009 02:53 PM

ok

RoXer 08-05-2009 02:59 PM

Match 1: Guile vs. Ken

CHOOooOOOOKE. If I had just finished him up in this match I would have taken it and won. I missed so many focus dashes. I believe he went up 2-0 and then gave me 2 pity round wins. So final round, both have low health, HE MISSES HIS SUPER! I lick my lips, smile, and then go for the ultra. Missed input. EX Flash kick, blocked, died. :( I was so angry.

Match 2: Fei Long vs. Ken

Not much to say here. Missed inputs galore. Couldn't do any of his moves.

Match 3: Guile vs. Cammy

I think I swept him if I remember correctly. Was it a pity win? Maybe Kalyx can elaborate more.

Match 4: Bison vs. Sakura

MISSED THROWS. Hopefully Kalyx can atest to this. Instead of tech grabs, bison would miss his throw and Sak would get hers. Every fucking time. It was really making me mad. Got out to 2-0 somehow but in the end, Kalyx knew what he was doing and came back.

Match 5: Akuma vs. Cammy

Time to get serious. I went up 2-1. Low life and ANOTHER missed focus dash. 2-2. Cammy goes for focus, I'm on the other side with the Ultra. HOLLA.

2-3

**CONTROVERSY**

Match 6: Akuma vs. Vega

Couldn't decide between Akuma or Fei Long but went with Akuma. Went up 2-0. First match was almost a perfect. But then DISCONNECT.

Motherfucker.

We play again, and I go up 2-0 AGAIN. But then choke to lose the next 3.

I lose that round 4-3?

I DID win 3/5. But I'll give him the win. It's fine. He came back from 2-0, whos to say he couldn't do it on that d/c game. So we played a match 7 anyway.

Match 7: Fei Long vs. Sakura

2-2. Low health, won with a chip damage ultra.

I lose 4-3?????

RoXer 08-05-2009 03:04 PM

Hasney/thecc are guys setting up a time before saturday? I kinda want to advance it sunday morning.

G 08-05-2009 03:06 PM

so when do I get my 400 points

RoXer 08-05-2009 03:10 PM

I'm just glad that first loss didn't completely suck the life out of me like Suns/Spurs when Duncan hit that 3 in 2OT.

RoXer 08-05-2009 03:11 PM

When it's all over.

So like October at this rate.

It IS going to get done. I don't care if I have to coin flip every round every 2 weeks.

No pity wins, you took those matches. The last match was pretty tense.

An odd one indeed. I felt as though I won on a match my match basis, but counting rounds makes it a tough call. You were sharp with Akuma, and I may have lost a straight battle.

Seemed like 2 weeks to me. Time's been flying.

#BROKEN Hasney 08-06-2009 01:21 PM

Yeah, me and thecc just played. Him on the left, me on right

Ryu 0-3 Balrog

I <3 Balrog now. Fucking beatdowns in the corner, charging through projectiles. I thought I was just a fireball guy myself but I now have much love for the chargers.

Ken 0-3 Akuma

Woop woop. I swear, if I ever get arthritis it will be because of how I play Akuma, complete chaos on the stick and ended the 3rd round with an ultra

Sakura 2-3 Gouken

OK, thecc woke up and punished me with a couple of ultra round wins. I thought he was going to beat me, but luckily he walked into a few too many ant-air hadoukens

Chun-Li 3-2 Ryu

Yeah, I was picked apart, This would have been 3-1 if it wasn't for a lucky ultra from me. Last round went down to the last slither of both our life but thecc deserved this

Ryu 2-3 Akuma

After that, I thought I would go back to Akuma so I could finish with a walk in the park. WRONG! thecc was clearly used to my Akuma by this point. First round I demolished him... for the first half, even had him dizzied in the corner and he still came back to take it. Few roundhouses and anther two ultras later (only one for the finish though, the other thecc survived and took that round too) and I take it

#BROKEN Hasney 08-06-2009 01:23 PM

I also felt like a complete loser when thecc beat me with Chun-Li, because not only did I lose, it came up with the achievement for having 500 XBox Live fights :'(

RoXer 08-10-2009 12:51 AM

I'm advancing tomorrow night to give Fignuts/Boomer an extra day.

Fignuts 08-10-2009 01:05 AM

I've been home a little more the past few days, but boomer is never on when I am by myself. Always when I've got people over to watch netflix.

I'll be home till noon tomorrow. If I don't see him by then, just give him the win.

Boomer 08-10-2009 04:26 PM

I can do tonight, but I just got back from the first day of my new job. 8-4 EST every weekday, so no can do tomorrow.

RoXer 08-11-2009 06:59 PM

ROUND 4


RULES:

- Higher seed fights on the RIGHT side of the screen. (Meaning, if you are the lower seed, you must create the lobby and send the invite to your opponent. Example: #16 is on the left, #1 is on the right)

- Time Limit: 99, Rounds: 5

- Best of 7

- 4 character minimum OR you can only use the same character twice. However you want to describe it.

TIPS:

Tell your MOM to get off the computer, you're playing in a fighting video game tournament for an internet wrestling message board. I think the only one who had an iffy connection anyway was Drakul and I think it's because he lives in wherever he lives. We shouldn't have too much of a problem connecting to each other.

- Take a break between matches. Like 2-6 minutes or so. Take a breather.

BYES:
6. Hasney - Hasney (2-1)
8. Boomer - jtboomer2 (2-1)

BRACKETS:

2. Kalyx - Kalyx triaD 360 (2-0)
vs.
5. Funky Fly - Busted Funk (3-0)

***MARQUEE MATCHUP*** This is the big one right here. Most important matchup of the round. Winner gets to sit on his ass for like 2 months (at this rate) while everyone else duckes it out. Then goes straight to the championship. TAKE THIS ONE SERIOUSLY YOU TWO (I'm sure you will)

3. RoXer - RoXer1 (1-1)
vs.
9. Blitz - Luneknight (1-1)

Fucking because of the "BS" that was the round, I now have to battle my way back to the top. Starting with Blitz. Hopefully, he hasn't jumped out of a hotel yet. Actually, if he did, I would automatically advance to the next round. So hey Blitz, do what you want. Loser is eliminated. (So then, Blitz is already eliminated??)

1. Super V - Chiszmo (1-1)
vs.
10. Drakul - Drakulbites (1-1)

Unbelieveable. Super V still won't buy the game. Even when it's $20. Drakul might just get a free pass to the next round.

BRAGGING RIGHTS


Like I said, you don't have to do these matches. But it will help give a concrete ending on where you end in the tourney.

Battle for 9th place


4. Fignuts - Fignuts82 (0-2)
vs.
7. thecc - falloftheage (1-2)

Battle for 11th place:


11. G - sgand (0-2)

12. Ant - TonyRomoASL (0-2)

I think the MVC2 tourney will go round-robin style and top 4-6 will go double elimination.

But that will take all fucking year. Not even a hyperbole there. That will take 12 months to advance.

Funky Fly 08-11-2009 10:21 PM

Have'nt played in 2 weeks, but I will be fight ready in like 2 days. Kalyx lemme know when you wanna do this.

Super V 08-11-2009 11:19 PM

Super V 08-11-2009 11:19 PM

Funky Fly 08-11-2009 11:28 PM

Super V 08-11-2009 11:28 PM

By the way this thing ran too long and I am Silver again. I'm a PS3 guy. This was really the only Xbox Live thing I did.

Two days is good.

Yeah Roxer beat me no surprise. But I did better than I thought I would. Won 2 matches, with my Ken taking out Akuma, and Gouken handling Bison. Surprising to me. Other than that it was massacre.

RoXer 08-13-2009 11:15 PM

Blitz beat my Akuma. I don't even think he was expecting that.

RoXer 08-13-2009 11:20 PM

Match 1: Guile vs. Cammy Perfect the first round. Won the next 2.

Match 2: Guile vs. Ken Much closer. Went tied 2-2 down to a real nailbiter. I think I surprised him with two EX Sonic Booms. Had he won this match, he might have been in a position to beat me and advance.

Match 3: Bison vs. Fei Long :o Poor Blitz. 3-0

Match 4: Akuma vs. Ken I guess my only excuse is that I was practicing too much with other characters? Or I wasn't expecting Blitz's Ken techniques? I dunno. 1-3

Match 5: Bison vs. Gouken Here, Blitz handed off his controller to a buddy of his. No way was that him. He is really good with Gouken which I wasn't expecting.

Match 6: Sagat vs. Gouken I win 3-0. Perfect last round...okay maybe he's not THAT good with him.

I win 4-2.

Kalyx triaD 08-13-2009 11:35 PM

Ken must be a problem with you.

RoXer 08-16-2009 04:44 PM

Were waiting on Kalyx/Funky

Kalyx triaD 08-16-2009 05:54 PM

That's my fault. I seen him online but I was playing something else. We'll get down.

Kalyx triaD 08-21-2009 09:35 AM

Funky, I may fight you on Khuntri's profile (no shenanigans). I'm gonna be in Miami for a while. If it bothers you enough, I'll just recover my profile and we'll do it straight up. I just hate recovering my profile across consoles. Something about it I don't trust.

Funky Fly 08-22-2009 02:57 AM

Cool. Just hit me up if you see me on.

Kalyx triaD 08-22-2009 07:58 PM

It is done.

Kalyx triaD 08-22-2009 07:58 PM

Funky do the details, I g2g.

Funky Fly 08-22-2009 08:19 PM

Right, so it finally happened. Big surprise, I got stomped on. Here's a brief recap:

1. Akuma (me) vs Vega (Kalyx) 0 - 3

Match was mad laggy thanks to my brother running 54643578 torrents. Thought I did ok in the first round until Kalyx decided shit was boring and it was time to speed it up. Basically swept me. Also, wtf Capcom, Vega having an airthrow? He has enough moves god damnit.

2. Sagat vs Vega: 0 - 3

Lately (and by lately, I mean since July) I have not been able to get it done with Sagat like Used to. Horribly mistimed everything and got destroyed.

3. Balrog vs Sakura 1 - 3

Yay, no more Vega. Aw, crap it's Sakura. After months of Kalyx going on about my Sakura this and my Sakura that I got to taste it. And does not taste good. He literally shut me down entirely with low weak punches the entire first round. Found a way around it and managed to win my first round of the tourney only, to have him ex shouken, juggle and ultra me to death. It's starting to look real bleak here.

4. Blanka vs Sakura 3 - 1

Uh oh, I've found Kalyx's one character he has "trouble" with... First round goes to me, but only because he's never seen my Blanka before. A nice mix of in your face and tentative, if I do say so myself. Kept getting caught in the god damn focus attack trap this match especially. KALYX COMES BACK AND TAKES TAKES THE NEXT ROUND, I'M LIKE NOOOO, MY SWEEP, MY GLORIOUS SWEEP. Nah, jk I'm actually surprised I took this, because those last 2 rounds were hard fought. Seriously. Round for was a next hit wins deal, and I busted out the best attack of my life and actually made him panic for all of 2 seconds.

5. Bison vs Ken: 0 - 3

This was actually more even than I thought it would be. Lots of back and forth, with me dropping the ball at the end of each round. Fucking hell. At one point in the second round, I was literally owning Kalyx to the point where I had half a bar and he had 1 hit to go. I go in for the kill, and he times the most perfect ultra ever and finishes it right then and there.

Overall, I'd say I'd have done better and probably could have made it 7 matches if:

1. I'd practiced. I'd only played 1 time briefly since fighting G. Damn you, BlazBlue, Prototype and Shadow Complex.

2. I'd fucking taken Ken and Blanka instead ofAkuma and Sagat.

3. I'd settled the fuck down a little more and managed to time throw escapes better. Although lol @ me just casually waking up to Sakura from across the screen with Blanka and just throwing her that 1 time.

ROUND 5



RULES:

- Higher seed fights on the RIGHT side of the screen. (Meaning, if you are the lower seed, you must create the lobby and send the invite to your opponent. Example: #16 is on the left, #1 is on the right)

- Time Limit: 99, Rounds: 5

- Best of 7

- 4 character minimum OR you can only use the same character twice. However you want to describe it.

TIPS:

- Clean up your connection. Do what you can, at least. Stop downloading porn/movies/whatever. Tell your MOM to get off the computer, you're playing in a fighting video game tournament for an internet wrestling message board. I think the only one who had an iffy connection anyway was Drakul and I think it's because he lives in wherever he lives. We shouldn't have too much of a problem connecting to each other. I don't think.

- Bust out the legal pad and crayon. The only way we can get your results is by your first hand account. So after a match, try to do your best to dramatically recreate what just happened. Don't concentrate so hard on your summary that it distracts you from the game, but a little effort would be appreciated. Sure you could say "I lost 4-2" and be done with it, but a little drama would be appreciated. It also helps to keep track of who you used, who they used and what happened.

- Take a break between matches. Like 2-6 minutes or so. Take a breather.

BYES:

2. Kalyx - Kalyx triaD 360 (3-0)

Good for him. He gets to sit around for next month and a half or so and do nothing. Hopefully, he won't be doing nothing and he'll be doing that myspace chick. But I digress. He's 1 win away from winning it all. Big surprise.

5. Funky Fly - Busted Funk (3-1)

Funky also gets a few byes. I believe he'll automatically get at least 3rd if my math is right.

BRACKETS:


3. RoXer - RoXer1 (2-1)
vs.
8. Boomer - jtboomer2 (2-1)

Loser is eliminated.

6. Hasney - Hasney (2-1)
vs.
10. Drakul - Drakulbites (2-1)

Loser is eliminated.

BRAGGING RIGHTS:

Like I said, you don't have to do these matches. But it will help give a concrete ending on where you end in the tourney.


Battle For 7th Place:

1. Super V - Chiszmo (1-2)
vs.
9. Blitz - Luneknight (1-2)

RoXer 08-22-2009 11:30 PM

Hasney, Drakul, I put you two together because you are both on the same side of "the pond" and you two probly won't lag. Play as soon as you can.

I'll try and get in touch with Boomer.
