Thursday or Friday are my best times this week actually. So if I catch ya online during one of those days, we can play for sure
Itzknickknack said Sayah gave him the OK to have our matches, so we just did last week's match-us:
3-0 lyte
3-0 lyte
3-2 lyte
Itzknickknack used the Williams sisters; I used mainly Scrub Alisa with Anna and Jay Cee. Damn I am out of shape in this game after so much SFxTK.

Hyun Sai wins 3-1. So pissed at how much I suck.
Nah, you didn't seem to be used to the matchups ! I hope the lag was not too bad either.
And as I see everybody freaking out when they see the region, I'm not in europe lol, I'm here :
It's a french department, but I've got decent connection with the US as we ve got a direct cable to east coast.

It was 1 bar so I was worried but I didnt notice any lag at all so it was all good. Baek and Wang are two of my biggest nemesis. Even if I knew the matchup I still would have lost.
My mind is dumb. Most of the time its goes blank during a match. I forget to duck certain strings, I forget to punish things and I even forget to do moves that I use often. About the only thing I can remember to punish is Kazuya's u/f+4,4,4,4,4 lol. Its like memorizing a speech over and over but when its comes time to actually present your speech you start to stutter and forget your lines. Thats been my tekken life for a long time now.

Yeah, happens a lot to me. As for the bar, there is this strange bug on PSN where all my opponents are always 1 bar, even those in my own town. Strangely enough, when we're in another player lobby, we've got 5 bars. It's very annoying, but at least I've got no problem on Xbox Live.
We can play again if you want to get more used to those characters, anytime.

Samething happens with Sayah. It shows 1 bar but the connection is fine.
Good games again dude. Thats a scary team. You have to be very careful pressing buttons against you with all those frame traps or else you're eating a ton of counter hit damage as I did.

You don't suck. I've seen you play. You are a very competent player.
Thanks for competing and for supporting.
As long as you were both okay having the match, I wasn't gonna prevent it from happening. I was already giving a day extension to Noisepurge and giancarlo. Would be fair doing the same for itzknickknac, I suppose.

Hmm. Give her till Wednesday. She's usually the one playing most of the evenings so if you /msg her that night, she'll play for sure. Already have you added on her list as well.

Your too kind.
I hope we can get another one of these going again. Would be nice if we could get one for each reigon so everyone has the best possible connection.
Yeah, I would say this (so far) has been pretty successful. We had two dq's and a few automatic losses but most people still played their matches and got things done on time. Most importantly, the bracket wasn't stalled and we are reaching towards the end now. Hopefully it can happen again.
I added you but I guess you're EST? Going to be tough again. Unless it's during the weekends, it can't be much later than 6PM your time.
I can be available between 5:30 and 6:30 AM Saturday, and between 5:30 and 7:30 AM Sunday, US East. What is your timezone ?I added you but I guess you're EST? Going to be tough again. Unless it's during the weekends, it can't be much later than 6PM your time.
GMT+2 so that'd be around noon or so my time.

Quite the upset over here. Will post results very soon.
We got Kenix with the win here.
Match 1: (2 - 3) Rem vs Kenix
Match 2: (0 - 3) Rem vs Kenix
Match 3: (1 - 3) Rem vs Kenix
Off her game I suppose. Not very happy. lol - good games from the few matches I watched. I think she made a good comeback within the losers brackets. Next tourny will be fun!
Sidenote:
Lyte, is Friday good for you? 8PM EST?

It was a great game with your wife. I'm surprise she quite good. just curious, how old is she?
P.S. Fraeon, i'm ready for you, i know u gonna win against Hyunsai
27. I'd of thought she give you a good run for your money but seems she was a bit off with Paul and Law. If there's another tourny, I expect her to be fired up and make much more progress.
As for me, I got my battle with Lyte which will lead me back to Rolento. Very hungry for that win.

Oh my. Maybe we should play tonight instead.
Naw. Friday. 8PM EST works well for me.tiggerkiddo

Another one of these tournaments would be fun...I've largely given up on being a competitive player (As in going to tournies) but I always have time for more of these tournies!
No one has said anything so far. No stream today I guess.
DEATH™;47059402 said:I can make another banner for you
I don't know if I should host, though. Someone else probably really wants to host too. haha

Hey DSix, you still around? Sent you a Friend Invite a couple of days ago and it still says pending. Let me know If you're good to play anytime soon.
Oh sorry, I had a very busy week, I'll be around today and this week-end, tell me what times are good for you.

Between my last post (upup) and the next 1-2 hours I'm down for the matches. Otherwise Sat/Sun around the same time.
By the way anyone here wants the matches I had with Baekshi, Remi, Rolento? I haven't got much other then a crappy phone to record them with. :/ Unless there's some way for people to look up the replays themselves and get them.

Well I guess that rematch with Rolento won't happen. However, facing Lyte I think I laughed the most because of how fun the games were.
Lyte is the winner!
Match 1: (2-3) Lyte
Match 2: (2-3) Lyte
Match 3: (3-2) CcrooK
Match 4: (3-0) CcrooK
Match 5: (2-3) Lyte
Lyte says he uses scrub tactics but still, doesn't matter how you play. That solo Alisa at the end though. I had those few opportunities to win the match out and completely choked. I hope to see another tourny start up in the near future. Count me in.
Lyte is the winner!

Somehow I managed to scrub out a victory against Ccrook!
3-2 lyte
3-1 lyte
2-3 Ccrook
0-3 Ccrook
3-2 lyte
Ccrook used Kazuya/Xiaoyu. I was mainly Scrub Alisa with Jay Cee or Anna. Took a gamble and used Alisa solo in the last battle.
GG dude. After I won the second round in the third match, I thought that it had been the third round and didn't notice another round was going until it started, lol.
3-2 lyte

2-3 Ccrook

Love it man. LOVE IT. I really enjoyed the matches with both you and your wife and I hope we keep on playing! I got so pumped up during those fights! XD

I fully admit it- I am a Tekken scrub/n00b! I have so much I need to learn.
Hyun Sai, can't do it this Saturday so we'll have to do it on Sunday.
Watching these recordings of mine and man, my movement is all kinds of ass. If we're going to have another tournament at some point, I gotta have to improve that. My Lili spacing is something I'm pretty proud of but better movement would also help there. Also gotta find better and more damaging combos for my team.

The lag with Australia was as horrible as with Japan, but this time the coin toss goes to Flying Monkey (3-1 for him), good luck for the next one.
Seriously, this is no condition to have tournament matches, next time there should have some rules or divide parts of the tournaments for chosen halves of the planet, I can fight with America alright, but anything beyond is infuriating bullshit for both party. Plus the fact that I'm maining very no lag-friendly characters.
edit-edit: Derp, i didn't notice where I was going in loser brackets. Sorry I cant help but be salty about this.

Really sorry about this. I probably should have prepared for lag situations better. I was ultimately hoping TTT2 netcode could win over and provide playable matches at the very least. Especially since I played with Mighty from Japan and the matches ran decently. Sorry again. If there's a tournament again, I will try to see if we can find a solution for this sort of stuff.
