agp24 Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 I can bring a PS2 for GG and a second one for MB. I'll also bring my labtop.
Zoob Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 New England Revolution, the World Cup going on, I get your pun. I reccommend Dark Tournament lol. What's the stipulations on the game vote, anyways?
agp24 Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 If Dark Tournament wins, I'll try and find my copy. My vote goes to either KoFXI or WonWorld. I can't decide which I'd rather play.
Fraga Posted July 5, 2010 Author Posted July 5, 2010 Anything is allowed, whatever wins just bring your copy, write down the rules for it [and recommended price for joining] then BAM you're in
Tsaikotyk Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 I vote for HnK. If I can find my way to this and all, I'll even bring a setup for it.
Fraga Posted July 5, 2010 Author Posted July 5, 2010 Oh I forgot to add, The Game of Choice stuff will end the week before the tournament. I have a Textpad document to record votes
blueNINE Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 I'm in. I'll bring a PS2 with GG and a PS3 with SSFIV. My vote goes to Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3!
CrownEmpress Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Guess I'll bring BBCS + PS3 Will Mu be considered a DLC character?
SSMugen Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 I vote for HnK Thanks for doing this so in advance, now I have no excuse if I miss it
Furok Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Im bringing a GGAC setup and a BBCS setup. My vote goes to Akatsuki Blitzkampf for 3$.
CrownEmpress Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Forgot to vote, but it goes to UMK3. Don't play it, but fuckin hype watching it.
Fraga Posted July 5, 2010 Author Posted July 5, 2010 So far for votes I have: HnK- I (Mugen) Dark Tournament- I (Zoob) UMK3- II (Blue, Empress) Akatsuki- I (Furok) ST Original- I (Kona) On SRK looks like HD Remix may be a contender, so this will be interesting
kona Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Will Mu be considered a DLC character? I don't think Mu will be considered DLC since she will be a part of the game's roster. If I'm not mistaken, she needs to be unlocked right? Correct me if I'm wrong because I am guessing.
Fraga Posted July 5, 2010 Author Posted July 5, 2010 She does have to be unlocked, but it's not hard. Therefore she's allowed (She can be bought online though)
Why-Disciple Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 I'll def make it for Sunday. Put me down for a Tekken setup. And my vote goes towards 3rd Strike. Not that I'll be winning or anything (not even sure if I'll make it Sat), but nonetheless, I'd like to see it regain popularity.
agp24 Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Fuck it, my vote goes to JoJo's. It won't win, but I must rep my favorite fighter.
Danny Schme Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Mu should be allowed as she's not DLC. Makoto should be available for DLC at the time as she's slated for release on August 5th. I guess I'm in agreement to keep her from the tourney until we see how she does in terms of being broken or not.
Mystic Eyes Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 I vote for HnK as well, and I can bring a modded PS2/Melty setup, for whatever reason.
DoomieJ Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 HnK is my vote. Gonna come up for gear, and if someone in the community has a place for me to crash, stay for CS/melty.
Nuclear Cheese Posted July 6, 2010 Posted July 6, 2010 Looks like another event to head to. My vote for the wildcard slot goes to Wonderful World. Also, dammit Fraga why did you put GG and MB on separate days? You're trying to kill me via travel, aren't you?
kona Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 Also, dammit Fraga why did you put GG and MB on separate days? You're trying to kill me via travel, aren't you? OH SHIT LOOKS LIKE HE CAUGHT ON TO OUR PLANS. Sarcasm aside, see if anyone from CT will house you for the weekend so you don't have to travel for fuck eons to and fro.
DoomieJ Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 Where da hospitality at conneticut? Im trying to come get your BB money.
komradekraig Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 excited for this. big time. finally have a reason to get down to CT to play you guys on a day i can actually do! I plan on entering bbcs and ssf4 and i might donate $5 to whoever wins mbaa, lol. F-cellobitch and i are having a tough time with those air throw enders (only played the game twice so far).
Mindgam3 Posted July 7, 2010 Posted July 7, 2010 Where da hospitality at conneticut? Im trying to come get your BB money. If I manage to get back onto the UConn campus next semester, you'll be welcome to stay at my dorm. My roommate will be compelled to agree.
