To everybody: I will be spending the next week off of smashboards and facebook. I am going to use this time to restructure and refocus things in my life. If you would like to contact me, I will be available on AIM, Skype, FBchat and Text. Technically my PMs go to my email so I may get those as well.

Be civil and keep the discussions rolling. Be cool ya'll

Start here: http://www.twitch.tv/eschamptv/b/323376350

It's the recording of the stream. They're pretty deep into the bracket at that point, though I can't remember how far. Commentary was dead near the beginning of this recording, but comes back in a little ways into the video.
Well I watched everything on that stream like last week.

I was kinda just hoping for individual videos haha :(

Thanks though.

So I've been having this discussion with various friends and coworkers.

What do you guys think the worst names are?

Worst I've come up with is Abner.

A guy graduated from my high school named Asad Butt. 100% serious. No idea what the parents were thinking.

Seymour would've been godly.

What was the tag of the real "Johns" John? I remember Samox made a thread asking people and the guy came back to post in it. Someone oldschool from a WC crew or something.

man. playing MODOK with technical proficiency on pad in umvc3 is about as difficult or more difficult than the hardest things i've learned to do in melee.

yeah modok is tough. some of his basic flight cancel blockstrings and combos are similar to doing something like... shine jc short hop aerial pressure

gotta be precise

Pretty big difference between

"omg don't derail a social thread'

and

"oh hey this thread exists, use it."

Since Marvel was a topic and what not.

I'm actually trying to get into marvel myself, kinda awful at traditional fighters though. My first one actually.

Does anyone have things they would suggest practicing? Routines, w/e.

Right now, I'm just practicing various motions, QCF, DP, etc but just for future notice I suppose.

Yeah I was in the same boat, I picked up mvc3 at gamestop one day for cheap. Tried it for a couple of weeks and couldn't bring myself to enjoy it. For me it's just simultaneously too rigid and hectic.

The only "traditional" fighter I enjoy is Tekken lol

^I just want to note that I hate your avi. It makes me picture you as a 12 year old who put his own picture as his avatar and then you go and say coherent things. It's confusing.
