soooo much fun

pools were changed and I ended up in KDJ's pool which was hella fun...

I went Ness at least one match [in friendlies] against every person I played against and had some pretty amazing results...I should have used Ness in a specific pool match [against a really good Peach from Connecticut...LOL not that one] because my Fox/Marth are garbage against her due to horrid lack of experience and inconsistency with Fox techskill...especially because after getting ***** in pools by this guy as Fox/Marth, I later played him in a friendly [kind of a pride match though, so it wasn't like he held back at all] and I beat him with Ness >_>

oh well, 3rd seed isn't too bad all things considered and I took a dollar from KDJ...in Rock Paper Scissors >_>

he's easily the most chill and fun smasher I've ever met though, and Kage is a ****ing MONNNNSSTERRRR OMG

he was obliterating Foxes left and right.

from what I know, he knocked out Jman, KDJ, Azen [beat his Marth and Fox], and took PC Chris to last match [LOL Corneria]

did I mention he did all of this with GANON?!?!?!

Losers Finals between Shiz and M2K was ****ing INCREDIBLE and grand finals was the weakest bull**** in the world.

Round 1: M2K (Captain Falcon) Vs. Mango (Falco) --> painful to watch
Round 2: M2K (Sheik) Vs. Mango (Falco) --> sick.
Round 3: uhh...I think there was another one of this matchup? it was pretty good.
Round 4: M2K (Sheik) Vs. Mango (Falco) --> also sick, but last hit last stock, Mango got the kill


...and then...

Round 5:


...Falcon ditto.

;____;.

Wanna know why?!?!

I asked M2K about this and he told me that he wanted to choose Green Greens but he thought it was unfair because there's no way Jiggs can beat Fox on Green Greens and so he went FD, but then Mango went Falcon and M2K didn't want to be unfair again and go Sheik so he chose Falcon and it was just bad.

White Castle was awesome.

Kentucky Fraco Bell in NY though?!?! OMG EXPENSIVE.

Mexican Pizza + Grilled Stuft Burrito + Med. Drink = $9.50?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!

First id like to give my regaurdsto black G.

Looks like ive been missing alot of action. this trip to seattle set me back quite a bit so lately ive just been working my *** off. thigs are gonna get hype again soon though. im looking at hosting a few tourneys. bad thing about that is i think im about to start sucking hard at melee again (not that iactually got a chance to step it up : / ) because Street fighter 4 is WAY TOO GOOOOOOD! Id also like to learn TvC asap so im going to be puting all mt practice time into SFIV and TvC.

Work has also been killing me with hours. not that its a bad thing but i clearly dont have time to host as much or even play like id like to ~.~ on a good note ill be hosting a SFIV tourney toward the end of the month at my store. i dont have all the details yet but it IS going to be store credit for a prize (F@CK!) but it should be alot of fun.

Good **** to toasty kadaj and mashi holding it down for sova lately. you guys have been puting in mad work. keep it up. mean while Me, kits, his new crew !ntruder alert, and some other cool sova heads will be ****** shop on the Capcom front!

Cow, whats up with your 360? my store may be able to fix it.

Kits, im working from 10am - 6pm. SFIV all day. lets do eet!

man games like TvC are always broken. just get nice with high tier but practice other players you like. atleast youll be able to match gay with gay and still have fun in casual matches.

Brawl<TvC<<SF4, well for me anyway. Melee gets an honerable mention since there was a revival and its fun to watch, but I dont want to play it.

O-NO: Any chance your shop can fix a broken psp? Im not sure whats wrong with it. The power light comes on when I turn it on but nothing actually happens. I dont hear anything or see the home menu.

PSP's are a pain in the ***. even if we cold fix it, the labor cost is almost as much as it would be to get a new one. my honest suggestion is to either get a new one, or wait until the new PSP 3000S comes out that ive been hearing about.

PSP w/ touch screen? Sign me the **** UP!

Revival of Melee Montage by PB&J

also: looks like I might not be going to Genesis anymore ;___; Oh well. I'll still try though!

AlsoAlso: Ether, PM me your new phone number so I can come over and **** your Marth ^_^

again @ Ether: we need to talk Fox dittos. For real.

This weekend opened my eyes about too much **** SoVa doesn't even KNOW about [and it's so foreign to me that it'd be difficult for me to retell it :(]. I think MD/VA has officially lost its Melee footings. FL, NY, PA, CT, and CANADA are wayyyy too ****ing good.

LOL I don't have much to teach (by example), I just have advice:

-master the art of shining out of shield as a reflex and not just that but actually being able to FOLLOW UP afterward

-ledgehop dairs are better than ledgehop bairs/nairs for edgeguarding because it guarantees that they'll be below the edge which gives you a chance to get back on the ledge and drop down to shine with invul frames

-the action is on you, you're the one who has to make it happen, unless your opponent is sloppy and/or too aggressive which just means you can sit back, relax, and punish

-make sure you always crouch-tech onstage shines. If you're far from the edge, crouchtech away so you go quite far. if you're close to the edge [meaning they can waveshine-jab reset and then shine you off the stage] crouch tech toward them.

-I think Cyrain told me that Fox can't roll away from jab-resets until 32% so if you're the type who pays a lot of attention to % [I'm not, unfortunately], then keep that in mind.

-also, don't underestimate the power of CC-shine at low damage

General tip against Fox: make it a habit to SDI away from Fox whenever he dairs you to limit the possibility of getting shined or grabbed...both of which can lead to all kinds of unfortunate happenings
