Otakuchin Posted February 9, 2010 Author Posted February 9, 2010 Ok guys Ik this has been a long time coming, but ive been through some changes in my life so putting in the time and energy to run the ACT tournaments has been hard to find. But thanks to Blue9 I found that energy. This is only a few weeks away so Ima post updates as they come. Remember this wont happen and wont go successfully if you dont help spread the word and bring set ups. But ik you guys so ill see you then.
Light_Nazgul Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Hurray! Thank you so much getting this going again. I have missed it very much. I shall do my best to be there and would be very willing to help with running it any way I can.
blueNINE Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 (Glad to help, Chin.) Yes! Let's do this. I will bring a setup for a GG and also one for SFIV. Who is hype for the return of ACT?! Also, I think we should definitely do waseda style for the SFIV 2v2. (A plays A, B plays B, winner plays winner if it goes 1-1.)
Fraga Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Awesome! Thanks alot Andre! Your fighting spirit will be Raging by Act! Do you think we can try and get Melty Blood running at some point? We have setups and gear for it. Good way to start off MBAA hype! Especially with EVO!
NerdJosh Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Yeah run melty so I can put you all on blast.
Fraga Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Yeah run melty so I can put you all on blast. By this time my Arcade stick should be done with repairs (Mindgam3 hurry up!). Then we can see which school girl wins Also, I think we should definitely do waseda style for the SFIV 2v2. (A plays A, B plays B, winner plays winner if it goes 1-1.) I agree, Waseda has been working wonders during the Friday meet ups. Hopefully my Rufus won't be so free no more
kaoss Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 I will try to be there. Might need a ride back to Boston though if anyone is feeling generous :D

so moe kona Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Oh shit! Bringing back ACT? Count me in for a GG and SF4 setup. I also second Melty for ACT if possible.
DoomieJ Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Already have something going that day. march is a bad month for me. Yall have fun and post some American GG videos please!!
agp24 Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Let's do this. Hopefully my A.B.A. is decent by then.
Mindgam3 Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 It may not happen at this particular ACT (since Doomie and Quotes have already said they aren't attending), but we should all remember that there's a NE vs. NJ 5v5 that must take place sooner or later. By this time my Arcade stick should be done with repairs (Mindgam3 hurry up!) I just checked it out. Your light punch button needs to be replaced. Problem is, Lizardlick is out of white/translucent Seimitsu pushbuttons, so you'll have to get them here: http://www.arcadeshop.de/Seimitsu-Buttons-Seimitsu-PS-14-DN-CP-white_925.html. Arcadeshop.de has an infinitely better selection than Lizardlick, but they're based in Germany. I'll see if I can scrounge up some money for parts so we can order together and save on shipping.

So it's just the LP button? Not the others? Ok then, I'll get some money to help replace it. Thanks for the help
Vyers Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 I don't think I can make it this time. I can't ask for more time off that month, but if I'm not scheduled to work that day I'll be there.
NerdJosh Posted February 10, 2010 Posted February 10, 2010 You scared Fraga? I don't play schoolgirls in this game..
Fraga Posted February 10, 2010 Posted February 10, 2010 You scared Fraga? I don't play schoolgirls in this game.. Hah! We'll see if you even make an appearance, and I'll laugh If I see Nero I expect good things Josh, don't let me down now~
Mindgam3 Posted February 11, 2010 Posted February 11, 2010 He rocks that warui ne~ hardcore son. Yall have fun and post some American GG videos please!! We should find out how to do this. I was looking on Youtube the other day, and there's absolutely nothing recent in terms of American GG.

Nah son you guys can laugh all you want when I pick nero but real talk.. when you see how lame I play this mofo you guys will be crying. Satsuki/Ciel are taking the back burner in this game, Nero is just too fun. Also you should see about live streaming and capping later.. I'm a good hype/stream monster too so we could get it poppin. http://forums.shoryuken.com/content.php?r=88-Streaming-and-Recording-Guide-Research
Fraga Posted February 11, 2010 Posted February 11, 2010 Satsuki Instant Respect Good Sir. I just started learning Sacchin myself, and I'm re-learning SF4 as Rufus (Can't be so strict with games ya know? Even if some things are completely silly in both games). Perhaps helping each other is in order?
XAQshinor Posted February 12, 2010 Posted February 12, 2010 I think I'll be able to make it out to this one.
Fraga Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 Comon guys, WHERE'S ALL THE HYPE? ACT IS BACK! WE SHOULD BE REJOICING
Otakuchin Posted February 19, 2010 Author Posted February 19, 2010 Every one is so overwhelmed by SSF4 lol.
Fraga Posted February 19, 2010 Posted February 19, 2010 With Andre's approval, Melty Blood is now in Act XIII! Thanks alot Andre, Melty Bread is informed
