They're never sad, only happy.

alvarado52 08-05-2010 05:38 PM

i dunno man...ive seen some pretty sad lookin' titties

alvarado52 08-06-2010 02:42 AM

If you and me cant hook up before the deadline Funky, you can go ahead and take the W.

Funky Fly 08-06-2010 03:06 AM

Like I said, if you don't get a random friend request on Saturday, I'll definitely do it Monday.

RoXer 08-09-2010 02:43 AM

Beat Drakul, 5-2.


Are you two still going to try and hook up?

alvarado52 08-09-2010 02:44 AM

WELL, it looks like i got the connection issue fixed and the ports forwarded...but now my Netflix isnt showing the instant-browsing thing.

If it aint one thing its a fuckin' 'nother.

RoXer 08-09-2010 02:46 AM

...did you post that just after reading my post or was that just weird timing?

alvarado52 08-09-2010 02:47 AM

weird timing i guess.

Fuck Netflix...ill just start watching it on my PS3...gotta use that big hulking piece of shit for SOMETHING.

Funky Fly 08-09-2010 02:58 AM

You wanna do this now then?

Drakul 08-12-2010 12:50 AM

I thought it was first to 3 wins. That's how Khuntry and I did it. I was getting really into it after getting those two wins in a row and almost getting a 3rd win for what I thought would be an over all victory.
Then my cat came and sat beside me, pawing at me and staring at me and breaking my concentration. After that loss, I sort of gave up a little because I couldn't get back into the flow. I was giving SSFIV my full concentration until then.
I've learned two things from the Tournemant. Never play a match when there is any chance of any form of life distracting you (Phone calls etc interupted me and Khuntry mid match a few time, he waited until I got back before smacking me around. Thanks for waiting btw.) and I'm much better with grapplers than I am with Sagat, Seth etc.
Anyway, so I'm out now, right?

With the rumoured 6 new DLC characters coming out around about Autumn/Fall or Winter, will we be doing this tournemant a 3rd time?

RoXer 08-12-2010 03:12 AM

Nah Drakul, you're not out yet.

Funky Fly 08-12-2010 03:14 AM

Wanna go a few, Roxy?

RoXer 08-12-2010 03:21 AM

Drakul is currently handing our asses to Manny and me. He just got his endless ten achievement.

I'm not trying to be a bitch about this, but the lag is definitly helping out Drak. Even without the lag, he would still beat us but there are a lot of moments where I'm missing inputs when I know its not my fault. Drakul is amazing with Zangief, I'm not denying that at all. But I would say a good 15% of his luck is due to lag.

RoXer 08-12-2010 03:23 AM

13 in a row.

I'm up.

RoXer 08-12-2010 03:30 AM

14

Next?

Funky Fly 08-12-2010 03:32 AM

fuck gonna get in on this. Invite me when I pop up.

Drakul 08-12-2010 03:44 AM

Sorry for the abrupt leaving but was supposed to be out the door 40 mins ago and lost track of time cos of the streak. Think I got to 16 in all. I was having lag issues with hakan for sure but had no lag my end as zangief.

alvarado52 08-12-2010 04:29 AM

Drak was on his A game tonight.

Just finished my series with Funky. One word: Epic. I win 5-4, came down to the final.

RoXer 08-12-2010 04:41 AM

down goes frazier

Funky Fly 08-12-2010 04:41 AM

Mad struggs, maaaaaaaane. Manny's been working on some new dudes while I was away. :eek:

Somebody gimme the Heimlich, I choked in very last round. Manny changed up on me, and I couldn't adapt. Fought like an idiot. That's all she wrote. Oh, but wait! Even more epic, Manny straight smoked my T. Hawk 3-0 in one fight. Like not even close. Also, I discovered the Psycho Punisher > the Raging Slash.

RoXer 08-12-2010 04:49 AM

Neither of you wants to recap the DRAMA?

RoXer 08-12-2010 04:51 AM

I'm going to go ahead and eliminate Ant AND thecc this round.

Manny, send a PM to Boomer telling him he plays you next round and see if he's still interested.

alvarado52 08-12-2010 05:36 AM

seriously crazy series, even the last match was tied 2 rounds each.

Then my high gets killed when my desktop power supply shits out on me in the middle of my detailed match post. God tonight sucked.

Funky Fly 08-12-2010 05:38 AM

It got blown apart by the sheer awesome of our grand battle. :'(

Was in the process of doing this before my comp shit out.

Basically this: he won first two, then i won two, then he won one, then i won two, then he won one, then i won the last one 3-2.

Funky Fly 08-12-2010 06:07 AM

Upload the relays. Or don't. I'll do it later if you don't.

Kalyx triaD 08-12-2010 01:05 PM

Gonna be... busy this weekend. Real world shit. Sorry.

RoXer 08-12-2010 01:14 PM

When making plans, it's better to list the days when you ARE free instead of the days when you are not free.

Why did I have to type that?

Boomer 08-12-2010 02:21 PM

I've been interested all along, but fuck if I can schedule this shit in like you want me to. I wish I had time to play games on a set schedule.

"Kalyx is busy this weekend, so maybe we'll fight after that."

I'm more sure of when I'm not available then when I can play. This isn't 2007, and contrary to people's perception of me, I really don't game like I used to.

we will set up a time soon Boomer. Im actually gonna be pretty busy myself because im in the process of moving.

Unfortunately it also looks like i may land a job with shitty hours (basically taking up my entire day, getting home 12-2 every night) so my gaming will more than likely decline as well...at least with those i play with on nights.

Kalyx triaD 08-17-2010 11:32 PM

Kalyx vs Blitz about to go down.

Funky Fly 08-17-2010 11:37 PM

Blitz has improved dramatically in the last year. Far more than I have.

Blitz 08-18-2010 12:17 AM

Nah it was a slaughter. Kalyx wins 5-1. I'll let him post recaps if he likes, but it was nothing really to write home about. I haven't touched Street Fighter since Funky and I played, and I'm woefully out of practice. Wake up ultras all over the place.

Also Kalyx, sorry bout not messaging you back. Soon as I plugged my fightpad in, I couldn't use any directional buttons in the Xbox menu. But it worked in the game itself. Fucking stupid glitch.

RoXer 08-18-2010 12:18 AM

:(

Was thinking you would take at least 3

Kalyx triaD 08-18-2010 12:41 AM

Any of these matches you wanna watch just ask and we could check out the replays.

Match 1a

Ken (Kalyx) vs Guy (Blitz)

The connection was terrible but we trucked along. After trading wins the connection dropped completely. We would restart afterward.

Match 1b

Ken (Kalyx) vs Guy (Blitz)

With a much better connection we kicked off our series with some heated exchanges. I forgot how apt Blitz was with Guy and he's certainly a much safer fighter now. Even still I took it, but the matches were good - a tone set for the series. Pulled off a sick series of hits in the corner and was proud of myself.

Ken (Kalyx) wins 3-1

Match 2

Chun Li (Kalyx) vs Cammy (Blitz)

This was a step for me and Chun Li's relationship, taking her out to the tournament. Looks like a double date, too, with Blitz bringing Cammy and making me worry I stepped into a bad match-up. I played it safe and avoided giving Blitz free Canon Spikes. I was happy to see his Cammy didn't capitalize on a few of my mistakes. One-two many whiffed specials helped me out, too.

Chun Li (Kalyx) wins 3-1

Match 3

Ken (Kalyx) vs Ibuki (Blitz)

HOT DAMN. This was a tense match. Ibuki was too fast for some of my approaches and I adjusted after Blitz' Ibuki seemed to have my number. After the first match I incorporated more fire balls and Shoryu's to keep the ninja bitch away. Blitz pulled some stunts that had me worried. Highly recommend watching the replay.

Ken (Kalyx) wins 3-2

Match 4

Sakura (Kalyx) vs Guy (Blitz)

Pretty much punishing Guy's whiffed moves and played it safe.

Sakura (Kalyx) wins 3-1

Match 5

Chun Li (Kalyx) vs Ibuki (Blitz)

Swerve. Thinking my Chun Li had the tools to keep Ibuki out, Blitz carefully picks me apart each round. There was a rather of hilarious case of KOcide by Blitz, but he ended up taking the match overall. Very close fight, and Blitz keeps the series alive.

Ibuki (Blitz) wins 2-3

Match 6

Ken (Blitz) vs Sakura (Kalyx)

With Ibuki and Guy used up, I was fairly confident Blitz had no answer for my Sakura. Blitz caught me with more Shoryus then I should have allowed, but EX Senpuu combos ftw.

Sakura (Kalyx) wins 1-3

A very good series. Don't the '3-1's fool you, they were mostly great matches with cool moments and finishes. Blitz is a good Guy and his Ibuki is becoming a bitch.

The actual matches were good, even if the series looked like a wash. I had fun and liked fighting your Ibuki.

Hopping back on BTW.

RoXer 08-18-2010 12:51 AM

ROUND 4


RULES:


- Time Limit: 99, Rounds: 5

- Best of 9 (Nine). FIVE OUT OF NINE (Drakul)

- 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.


Bye: 7. alvarado52 - Pwners Manuel (2-1)


BRACKETS:


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

Only one winner will emerge. Loser will be put in a triangle chokehold and forced to the ground. And then flipped over and put in a hammerlock. And the crowd is going crazy. And boom, the winner will emerge victorious. $18,000 and a chance at the title! YEAHHHH!

I mean, loser is eliminated. Winner is guaranteed at least 2nd place.

5. Drakul - Drakulbites (2-1)
vs.
6. Blitz - Luneknight (2-1)

This should be a really good matchup. Pick'em odds. I have no idea which way this will go.


4. Khunty - KHUNTRY(1-1)
vs.
8. Boomer - jtboomer2 (2-1)

Winner fights Manny. Loser is eliminated.


8th Place: Funky Fly - Busted Funk(0-2)
9th Place: Ant - TonyRomoASL (1-2)
10th Place: thecc - falloftheage (1-2)
11th Place: G/Juan/Fignuts (0-2)
12th Place: Hasney - Hasney (0-2)

Yeah fuck, definitely missed input for a Kunai on that KOcide.

RoXer 08-18-2010 01:22 AM

I switched and gave Alvarado the bye since he's played his matches. No reason he should be in danger of elimination for actually participating.

Khuntry 08-18-2010 01:22 AM

who did i lose to?

RoXer 08-18-2010 01:24 AM

Drakul

whatever

RoXer 08-18-2010 01:38 AM

Go message Boomer right now to set up a time so you don't have to sneak in your W after I advanced it like last time.

Khuntry 08-18-2010 02:36 AM

cute

Funky Fly 08-18-2010 02:42 AM

I dunno. I see Blitz taking the series 5-3. Drakul's Zangief is damn near unstoppable, but Blitz uses both Cammy and Ibuki. Fucking great low and inside. Outside of a couple of other guys, I don't know what Drakul's cooking up.

Funky Fly 08-18-2010 02:43 AM

Hey Khuntry wanna play right now?

Khuntry's done for tonite, I think.

I totally know how to abuse Gief with Cammy and I suggest Blitz practices Spiral Arrow on command.

Kalyx triaD 08-18-2010 03:35 AM

BTW, I'm gonna beat RoXer's ass.

Khuntry's not happy with the results of the last round. And neither am I, really.

Yeah remember that bs. It would have been simple to adjust the results. Your Harvey Dent ass.

Boomer 09-12-2010 10:49 PM

Khuntry beat me 5-1. I haven't played in over a month, and warmed up seriously for about 1 minute before we started. I doubt very highly I would have beaten him anyway. I figured from the first FADC that I wasn't gonna do so hot. Don't remember the matchups much...I just fucked around really. I played Hakan x2, Guile, Bison, Rufus, and Adon. I won with Bison, despite not playing him at all for a very very long time. I know he's the guy I'm "good" at, but I've been more concerned with understanding all the characters recently and getting good at my inputs than getting "good" at anybody.

Glad that's over with. Can I just join you guys for something not-serious? I really need some competition...the one guy I play with on occasion is a little below my skill level. I need some people to beat the shit out of me.

Funky Fly 09-12-2010 11:07 PM

You down to play in like 20 minutes?

Boomer 09-12-2010 11:13 PM

I can, yes.

Funky Fly 09-12-2010 11:38 PM

Sorry for the delay. phone call. It's fighty time.

4. Khunty - KHUNTRY(2-1)

Bold prediction right here: This match goes the distance and Manny loses due to mental error when it's tied 2-2 with only slivers left. LOSER IS ELIMINATED

alvarado52 09-13-2010 06:07 AM

well, i guess i can take pride in being the lowest seed out of the top six. Next tournament i demand respect!

I'm still up for this but I've not seen Blitz online on the 360 in a while. I must be just missing him.

Now that Kalyx seems to have stopped caring about SSFIV for the time being, I like my chances for the rest of this tournement.

Funky Fly 10-03-2010 11:43 PM

I like how most of us are much closer in terms of skill level now. Def gonna enjoy the next tourny so long as it doesn't fall apart like this turd.

RoXer 10-04-2010 02:34 AM

Fall apart?!?!?!?

I'll have you know, we're still on pace to finish quicker than last year's

Drak and I tried to play last night. I was up 3-2 going into the 6th match. We got about halfway through that and Drak disappeared.

Drakul 10-12-2010 12:01 AM

Explained it in an Xbox message to you. Sorry, again.

sorry for ditching you guys, but the call came in. My place was the spot tonight.

Fignuts 10-14-2010 02:43 AM

Yeah, I told funky from the start I would only be in for a couple matches, but I don't think you guys heard.

For the best really. SLAMMING BEERS and playing pool with friends >>>>> playing street fighter with a guy who is clearly better than everyone else and picks his best guy EVERY FUCKING MATCH.

Dick move, Blitz. Dick move.

Funky Fly 10-14-2010 02:55 AM

I was not doing great today. Missed 43579634578635 opportunites against Blitz and took El Fuerte against Fig's Chun-Li. :nono:

Totally schooled the boys, tho. All my irl friends suck hard at fighting games.

Fignuts 10-14-2010 02:59 AM

Yeah, definitely wasn't feeling it today. That Juri vs Guile fight against Roxer should have been much closer. Remember sweeping Roxer's Guile with my Juri last time that fight came up. Chun-Li vs Guy should have been closer as well, but I was playing incredibly stupid the whole night. (except against El Fuerte hyuk hyuk) maybe it was the pre game beers or the anticipation of going out, dunno. Head just wasn't in it.

Fignuts 10-14-2010 03:00 AM

Also, yeah funky. In that Ken vs Guy(surprise surprise) match, I was like, wtf is he doing, he's smarter than this.

Fignuts 10-14-2010 03:04 AM

I would also like to thank Kalyx for showing me how awesome chun-li is as a rush down character. Tried her before, but thought her attacks were too weak for me to utilize her effectively. Wasn;t til I played kalyx, that I saw how she should really be used.
