GAF MEETUP YAY

I'll probably be chilling with X-Ray, Nasty, and Corimon the whole time since I don't really know others.

 

[Brobzoid]

[KidA Seven]

Seems like Laugh and Infiltration go to every overseas tournament (I know not all ex: Final Round).

 

[Kadey]

No Jlai, Saty or Eva at this? Where are the Japanese overlords?

[n3ss]

I can't wait to see Ricky use his new SFxT team, shit will be hype!

I can't wait to see Ricky use his new SFxT team, shit will be hype!

From what I read on Twitter, I don't think Ricky will be using his new team until after NCR.

 

[JeTmAn81]

Hoping for some shenanigans from gathered players on local streams (FGTV, etc.) tonight!

Boo!

I think people will be very surprised when they find out who he's using.

I think I saw you once when you went to In-N-Out that one time.

Well it won't have Rufus.

This is pretty much why I prefer watching UMVC3 over SFxT

That was pretty damn awesome.

I hate being broke. I can't even go just to spectate.

Me and my roommate just got hype watching that. Fuck, this is why you need to stream Marvel.

 

[JeTmAn81]

Ahh, they just watched that clip on the FGTV stream. I couldn't actually see what was happening. Totally hype!

In tokyo Next week and this seems like a good place to ask, are there any specific arcades where the top tier Japanese players gather to play against each other on a regular basis. I'd love to hit up an arcade and bump into some of the big dawgs of SFIV.

I think Daigo, Mago, Nemo, Kazunoko and others play at Big Box in Tokyo. Thats like the main arcade to go to for the best Capcom game players.

 

[Tizoc]

Why're Gems banned for this SFxT tourney?

 

[GabbyJay]

Whoop Whoop. I live a 10 minute walk from campus.

My only game is SF4, and I'm in bracket E as "Big Ben," same bracket as Hugo101. Can't wait.

 

[Spirit of Jazz]

I'm guessing it's related to how long they take to set up. I could be wrong though.

Good luck Ben.

Takes too damn long to pick.

 

[Professor Beef]

Why're Gems banned for this SFxT tourney?

Time constraints, I guess. Or people can't be arsed to memorize their gems, whatever.

 

[Tizoc]

Well why not just use the preset Gems in the game?

No Gems
Rolento Only
Final Destination Training Room

 

[EraldoCoil]

Haha, yea last weekend.....we went up there to stay with MINE for the weekend and train.....

We're heading up now, catch you guys later tonight.....

 

[GabbyJay]

Also I can't wait to see Vangief play more. He's probably my favorite player to watch.

 

[enzo_gt]

Good luck to GAFers heading out. May or may not stream monster this.

 

[shas'la]

I think Daigo, Mago, Nemo, Kazunoko and others play at Big Box in Tokyo. Thats like the main arcade to go to for the best Capcom game players.

Thanks! I'll be sure to check that out more than once if its decent!

 

[black_vegeta]

Also check out Taito Station. I believe a number of them have been player there lately.

 

[PsychoSoldier]

Looking forward to some UMVC3, but super glad I have MLG to watch when AE and SFxT is on.

AE is pretty played out at this point, imo, and it took me all of one WNF to get bored with the latter.

Well, Taito Station is Big Box. Or rather, Taito Station is located inside of Big Box. Most people just call it Taito Station, as Big Box is more than just an arcade..

 

[Sixfortyfive]

Well why not just use the preset Gems in the game?

1) This probably unfairly benefits some characters more than others.
2) Is there even a quick option to set all of the gems back to default if they've been fucked with?

 

[toddhunter]

1. is true, but not having gems can also be an advantage to certain characters, especially those that do big damage.

The game is also pretty boring to watch as it is. So I think chucking at least some attack gems on would help (also with timeouts)

We've already seen streams with gems, it doesn't help at all with the time outs.

Which is why you don't have defence gems

 

[Dahbomb]

Is that ChrisG in Pool G for UMVC3? He is listed as LB ChrisB.

Anyone know where PRBalrog and Noel Brown are in pools?

 

[black_vegeta]

Well, Taito Station is Big Box. Or rather, Taito Station is located inside of Big Box. Most people just call it Taito Station, as Big Box is more than just an arcade..

O_O

The more you know.

 

[Stabby McSter]

I'm in pool M for AE, and I probably shouldn't have. I haven't played since December. But I got the early bird special, so I probably thought I was gonna practice more.

OH WELL GOOD LUCK TO THE GAF PEOPLE, REPRESENT THE NEOGAFS YAY

When/where you guys meeting up? My pool is at night, and I have to play Infiltration if I win my first match, so I might not be playing much.

 

[SarcasticD]

Tomorrow will be a good day.

Good luck to the GAFers competing

 

[devastatorprime]

Gonna be going to spectate but not sure if its gonna be tomorrow or Sunday. Rooting for all the Tekken players entering SFxT. Let's go Naps and Bronson! Last norcal and socal regionals Mine came up just short of taking it all thanks to Justin. Since he wont be there my money is on Mine taking Marvel this year.

Man that's fucking depressing. Even if this didn't take place during NCR, I don't think it would be any different. Would the FGC(excluding the top players are who are competing of course) go to a E-Sports event like MLG and pay to be a spectator? I don't mind doing that, but I think I'm in the minority. So I don't expect the crowd to be any different for SCV and MK. And although I do think Capcom games would garner a much bigger audience, it would still be small compared to StarCraft. Its best selling point would probably be bringing in 10k+ stream monsters.

BTW, Justin still has MK and SCV(?) lined up. Don't know if he plays SC, but if he can win MK then it would all be worth it as he'll come home 12k richer. That's probably how much it cost to put together a major like NCR.

 

["God's Beard!"]

Everyone who wants to meet up, PM me your numbers.

To be fair, the communities for SC, KOF and Mk aren't exactly huge -- especially in Ohio.
