[trademark0013]

[Jam Stunna]

if this is large enough can we hope to see pools for singles? I'd help make them

oh yeah me and eggm winnin this

How many people would you like to see for that to happen? I'm definitely open to the idea, but I know that alot of people have a long way to drive, and this is on a Sunday, so I definitely want things to run smoothly and quickly.

 

[Falco (MOP)]

For real though, I'd like to see this happen as well ^.^

~P

 

[Prawn]

I wasn't even going to enter because I'm still really bad at this game, but if you have pools I would defiantly.

 

[Eggm]

Im probably not entering anything >_<

Lame, support melee!

this.

[Banks]

I would definitely want to do pools if there is time and it wouldn't take forever. It guarantees fair seeding. (unless someone seeds the pools themselves horribly lmao)

 

[Roman.]

i'd only say no pools because there probably isn't going to be that big of a turnout

 

[trademark0013]

then do RR, seed top 8

and i still need a partner..... i see how it is....

 

[Mogwai]

maybe we'll team trade. I'd rather team with a NYer cause I go to the same tournies as them more frequently, but I don't know if anyone'll be available to team, so yea, you're next on the list after NY.

 

[Alukard]

that would be amazing that this tourney is big enough to do pools lol ... but yea i breaking out the W2Z team and winning this with jman LOL


also anyone want to do MM's in SF4 on 360 ... or even 3v3/2v2 team mm on sf4 =] lemme know peeps =]

 

[th0rn]

if someone brings a fightstick i'd play

 

[Spife]

I'll bring mine but i'm not gonna mm

 

[-Hoggle-]

Wow the first tournament that I've been too in month thats actually in the New England Area rather than the New York area ahhhhh YEAAAAAAAA

 

[Jam Stunna]

Okay, here's what I'm thinking:

If we get 25 or more people, we can do pools. Of course they wouldn't be necessary, but it'll be neat to have pools for seeding (no eliminations in pools) and then put everyone into a bracket. Instead of doing doubles first, the schedule would change to this:

Singles pools

Singles bracket

Doubles bracket, if there's enough time, which their probably won't be.

Basically, it comes down to choosing between pools and teams. I really doubt that we'll have enough time to do all three and get OoSers on the road at a reasonable time. Plus I want to get home in time to put my son to bed.

we definitely should not sacrifice doubles for pools...

 

[Mogwai]

agreed. doubles is too ****.

 

[Falco (MOP)]

From the man himself, I gotta agree with B.

Although we should still strive for an equilibrium, maybe have the pools as a more under-the-radar type of thing instead of counting it as an equivalent to singles and doubles?

Idk, just my idea.

~P

It's not that, it's just that time is a major constraint, and since this is a Sunday tournament, I'm sure everyone wants to get home early enough to rest up for school/work the next day.

Ahh you'll have to pardon me, I'm home already! haha. I guess not everyone who goes to tournaments is in college XD. I understand, earlier the better, but if it's a general consensus that everyone wants to start a pool, then I think we could be able to bend the rules, all of course depending on the host's constrains , and Maine's going home late as it is, haha!

~P

 

[th0rn]

ehh, I'm in college... and i have a final on monday >___>

**** pools =p

 

[Alukard]

the reason i still play melee is for doubles ... so please do not cancel that =]

 

[Jam Stunna]

Exit polls are showing that doubles has won a landslide victory over pools. More at 11:00.

 

[Banks]

maybe we could do this tournament at a YMCA so then everyone wins

 

[R3N0]

Anybody know when this tournament is 'scheduled' to end. Maine has a long drive, and we have Finals this week (GG for us).

 

[ZoSo]

I think I'm going to buy the Betty Crocker brand. I also like to add walnuts to my brownies. Does anyone have an allergy to nuts?

If I say I'm allergic will you leave them out?

I hate nuts. T____T

 

[P. O. F.]

I want to play people in SF 4. Alukard I'll money match your Viper VS my Akuma, Ken, or whatever. two bucks?

Did you guys not read that I'm bringing

THIRD STRIKE



scrubs.

 

[Banks]

third strike is based on a handful of glitches, sf4 takes ACTUAL mindgames and skillz

 

[Mogwai]

why is it horrible ??

its the same thing ... get an arcade stick lol and a converter for tournies

and mogwai ... i'm not sure whos in g$'s car but i think it might be hbk hazz myself and reno ... not 100% sure tho

ok, right, so I shotgun the odd man out for teams

Hax u wanna team u noob?

I ALREADY SHOTGUNNED YOU, DO YOU NOT KNOW HOW SHOTGUNNING WoRKS!?!?!?!?!?

 

[R3N0]

Oops okiedokie moggiewoggie

 

[P. O. F.]

I just died a little bit on the inside.

Parry > Focus.

It's a Street Fighter/Fighting game dude. Pretty sure they are generally the same in terms of baiting aerials and attacks. The parry system was significantly better and was a great high risk high reward system.

Some of the top tiers in SF 4 are soooo dumb that you really dont even need to use Focus cancels often.

Umm step kick to ultra?
EX Tiger Uppercut to Ultra?
light jumping p to shin hadouken?
any shoryuken to Ultra?
light hurricane kick to super?
Balrogs anti air to ultra?

SF 4 is not as good as third strike.

I like them both but I'm hoping SSF4 is much better and balanced because some of the things the top tiers can do/get out of make me laugh.

Like Zangief beating out half of the ultras in the game with his Lariat.

and if you hit with ANY part of Sagats ultra you get the ending animation.

 

[R3N0]

Umm step kick to ultra? -- Hard to land when not shoryu fadc'd also you look like a fool if you random stepkick
EX Tiger Uppercut to Ultra? -- not plausible to land also doesn't do enough dmg.
light jumping p to shin hadouken? -- also not plausible to land gl trying to do a lil tap when ppl just anti-air it
any shoryuken to Ultra? -- what?
light hurricane kick to super? -- anything into super works. but i dunno about this one..? theres ex tatsumaki into ultra..
Balrogs anti air to ultra? - yes, thats his setup. ONE of his like TINY FEW.. like 3? OR even less.?
