Fine, I'll have diet Mountain Dew, calm down.

Going to go poison my body with McDonald's. Fuck cooking tonight.

Woop, left over pizza.

Just curious, who uses a joystick?

Arcade stick, or the analogue stick on the joypad?

Khuntry uses an arcade stick.

Arcade

Yeah, I use the Tekken 6 wireless stick.

Really want some Pepsi Max now.

Coke Zero sucks.

"Insert brand here" Zero sucks.

Standard wireless 360 controller thumbstick. Arcade sticks are hard to find and expensive, so I'll not have one for a good while.

Also, Pepsi Max >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Coke Zero.

Thumbstick is great with this, never touched the pad since.

I just can do anythiing with the controller lately. Or maybe because I'm playing at 1am. That could be it too.

Kalyx considered dropping out once he realized he'll mostly likely be playing his matches during the daytime when human beings live their lives and would no longer have the 3am advantage

Nah.

as stated before, i will be out of town 3rd-11th.

TOURNAMENT UPDATE: I have obtained Pepsi Max.

Drinking Koolaid now.

And I would have liked to introduce you to my Dudley. Won't get it in time for the tourney, but I will still probably get it at some point this summer.

The new Cherry Vanilla Pepsi is utter garbage, compared to Black Cherry Vanilla Coke.

They need to bring that back. But probably not, because then I'd start drinking soda again.

i havent drank soda in over a year.

It starts now.

Gunna type everything up

ROUND 1 BEGINS


RULES:

- Higher seed fights on the RIGHT side of the screen. It gives those who aren't so great a bit of a comfort zone when fighting. Example: #16 is on the left, #1 is on the right. I know the lobby system makes it so the winner of the previous match is on the left by default, so if the lower seed presses "ready" and the higher seed doesn't, the lobby should rearrange you.

If this doesn't work, than it isn't a big deal. We'll use this round to test it out.

- Time Limit: 99, Rounds: 5

- Best of 9 (Nine)

- You can only pick the same character twice.

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. As long as Hasney isn't using his tethered iphone for a connection, we should be okay,

- Save replays. Please. After the entire round, obv. Don't play a match and go save and play a match and go save. That's dumb. And label them properly.

- Take a breather between matches. It helps.





These cool cats get first round BYES:

1. Kalyx - Kalyx triaD 360
2. RoXer - RoXer1
3. Funky Fly - Busted Funk
4. Khunty - KHUNTRY


BRACKETS:

5. Drakul - Drakulbites
vs.
12. Juan - juanbhatesyou

No one has played Jaun, I don't think. But I don't think we're missing anything either. Should be an easy W for Drakul (Sorry Jaun :()

6. Blitz - Luneknight
vs.
11. Hasney - Hasney

Should be another easy win. :meh:


7. alvarado52 - Pwners Manuel
vs.
10. Ant - TonyRomoASL

I saw Ant playing Tekken the other day. I'm glad he practiced.


8. Boomer - jtboomer2
vs.
9. thecc - falloftheage

This one should be pretty evenly matched. It's a toss-up.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I started it early to let alvarado play his match before he goes on vacation. We'll still use next weekend as the official start date so then play all your matches by...

WEDNESDAY, JULY 7TH

Use this thread, or Private Messages, or profile messages, or text messages over XBox Live, or voice messages over Xbox Live, to set up a time with your opponent.

okay, so for one last clarification: the series is best of 9, you can only use the same character (win or lose) twice in the series, first player to win 5 matches moves on to the next round?

yes

Seriously, I'm not in this.

Give me your exact honest reason.

If its good, I will let you bow out

Abyone wanna get in some last minute practice in like 15 min?

It's pointless.

Also Khuntry will most likely drop as well (think I said so before). Will still join Endless Battles, though (said that, too). I'd also have no problem facing the winner. The tourny is much more interesting this way anyway.

Is anyone else reading this as "you little nigglets are not on my level"?

I play you guys all the time.

Come on, stay in this shit. I'll suck your dick, man.

Why is it pointless?

completely off topic, but you wanna play some UFC sometime Funky?

I like to think we could set out as a group and represent in another tourny. A tourny amongst ourselves is redundant. Might as well have Endless Battles. It's done a good job thus far revealing our skill levels. An in-house tourny would make playing the game into something we don't need it to be.

Sometime in the future yeah. I rarely play it alone tho, so I'd have to sit down and learn the new mechanics well before I took it online.

Sounds like a plan. This tourny could be to decide the leader. :)
