[MacArthur Blunts]

also people are welcome to crash at my place this weekend. I work sat 5-10 and sun 5-10. so sat 10pm-5am should be good for me.

[doragonkoroshi]

^did this ever actually happen? Jason (and others, but mainly Jason) are you going to be able to make AL this week? We need to get you playing more so you can be a better player.

let's do this shit again after the 24th tourney.

you missed out on lots of fun Matt.

[SH_]

yea, it went down, was pretty fun, GGs all

[doragonkoroshi]

I don't think I would have been able to make it this weekend anyway, but what exactly did I miss? IE, what people, where at, and how long?

Also, I'll likely be in Chicago the weekend of next AL tournament for an interview, but I don't know if I'll be asked to come and interview yet or not. Either way is good for me I guess. Any tips on getting in touch with Prucha while I'm in there assuming I go?

[SH_]

there was me (testament), Mac (slayer), Eric (slayer), Paul (dizzy), Matt (Eddie), Jack (robo), and Brent (sol). We got in midday saturday, and left out midday sunday edit: I'll have J get on and get ahold of you, and let yall go from there, I don't give out other peoples info for many reasons.

[Delpheous]

Matt, this week I can't pull it off because I'm heading to DC Thursday. But...next six to seven weeks I should be good one way or another to get out to AL or something to get some gaming in. Sorry last week fell apart too, I usually don't commit unless I'm sure I can get someplace cause I hate canceling last minute.

[MacArthur Blunts]

games today jack? anyone? jack cause i'd like the ps2 and stick sometime and anyone if jack can come?

[JackG]

my phones dead and I'm at school but I'd be down for some games later. I'll let ya know when I get my phone recharged. You free all day?

[MacArthur Blunts]

yeah, may take a nap but yeah

[doragonkoroshi]

Jason, you're cool. I'll look forward to playing you when you can make it. DC sounds like fun. This guy's never been. Sean, thanks pal. You're my pal. Let me know if you have anything new on Testament vs Slayer. Mac, hopefully I'll see you this week. Eric, hi.

[SH_]

testy vs slayer = both offensive and defensive fight, they are on pretty even ground, he's one of the few characters who has ways of dealing with testament at the beginning of the round (testy's round openers are so strong), and if one or the other gets the hit, it should hurt badly either way, though I do think that the reason why it's a good matchup for testament is because slayer has to play the game to try and get in, he has to fight his way through the nets, skulls, and trees, where if the inverse occurs (turtle slayer), then you can just do comedy pings with exe beast, forward exe beast is great in a lot of situations, because one of the most logical things to do against it is also CRAZY unintuitive (forward dash through it for punish), and on counter hit you get your badlands stuff which hurts slayer very badly into either skull, poison, or marks depending on the situation and tension, j.S is still beasty in this matchup, net all but nullifies mappa as an option in a lot of situations (yes I know there are ways around it, but I am saying in a straight 1 for 1 context, base yomi layer 1 shit), on the other hand to, if slayer gets in on you and gets his stuff started up, you are going to have to block, and block well, cause one misstep against him will get you killed in one combo pretty easily in a lot of situations, the fact that most all of testaments pokes are of different speed help TREMENDOUSLY in this matchup, things like 6K, 2HS, f.S, 2D and 5P are pretty good, and even the occasional situational badlands as a poke (hit for good damage, block in safe situation), or exe beast in a situation where you are pretty sure they can't react 100% appropriately, cause reacted to will = dead, you can still use the mixup in this matchup but you have to show that you are willing to punish get out options, backdash jump, or just straight back or forward dash, or even random BBUppa, and be ready for the supers, cause even with all the traps, at half tension or worse, 75%, slayer can punish a single net placement with about 80% or more, so when he has tension, play a bit more of the SF game, where you are reacting, and they are reacting, outside of that, can't think of too much else right now (long day already, been awake for 18 hrs), but when I think of the rest (and yes there is more), I will post it up:psyduck:

[Kamui Moon]

paragraphs Sean, paragraphs.

just kidding man.

anyways, tourney on the 24th guys!

[MacArthur Blunts]

[TheSlyMoogle]

You know Mac better than that. I don't think anybody I know loves the gear as much as that guy. Maybe Eric. GGz today, Mac.

AL people, sorry I stood you up. Gears was a'callin'.

[Kamui Moon]

i certainly do love me some gg. my bracket got fucked up the ass way too quick. goddamn i want games this week. bobby? edgar?

[The Blacktastic]

Busy Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. (Well, that might change.. I'll keep you posted.)

Internet's installed at my home today.

Anytime after that though is good for me, dude.

May 1st is my birthday. It's also a Saturday.

I was thinking maybe we (you, me, Edgar, other people with cars) could take a road trip to AL

and celebrate?

[SH_]

games should be had indeed, me needs in on said games, or suffer the fucking consequences.... also spitballing, I would like someone to dual mod a 360 TE stick without ghetto repercussions... anyone?

Same here, man.

I could only afford the 360 SE, so I intend to buy the Sanwa Parts myself. Seems a bit cheaper in the long run.

If you have a way up to Cleveland, get some games in with Edgar, Eric, and I. Lol.

Can't you get Marcell to do that for yaz?

EX Tasty, May 1st I think might be a Super 4 qualifier day. Not saying that you can't go, just saying be prepared for that. Not too much farther just to run by Mac's though, if we can't get GGz in or whatever. Jesse's always super accommodating though, so you should be able to work it out.
