Honnou Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 shoutouts to david for despite being japanese and gay for actually playing guilty gear
Digital Watches Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 DW: gg's, always fun to play. i expect your power level to be even higher next time we meet. Man, that means I have to actually find people to play.
Sammyhime Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 Figured it's a good time to stop being a lurker so that I can give some thanks and shout outs~ :F TaoFTW - This was seriously one of the coolest events I've been to, I wish you'd run more, sad that you're taking a break. ]: For realz though, you did an amazing job, and it was nice chatting with you~! Kyle - I have no idea why I didn't try to get to know you sooner! You're super chill and awesome~ Thanks for supplying us with some liquor at Rods, haha. Oh, and your Carl is godlike. :P Don't be a stranger! Jeff M. - I miss you already! Move to SoCal god damn it! D: It's always nice to see you trendy kid. <3 Honnou - Thank you for being a good host and for letting me stay at your place even though you had never met me~ Oh and for not spooning me. :scared: We should play Isuka again sometime, hahaha. Digital Watches - You're matches were so much fun to watch~ thanks for not showing up to our match(?) and for just being an all around cool dude. Hope to see you again soon~ [: Sorry that I didn't get to say bye to you after we left the tourny.. ;^; Max - You're super chill~ I didn't get to chat with you much, but you were always super nice when I did! I wish I could have provided you with more food...? :P Dacidbro - It's always nice seeing you, sorry if I offended you by cheering for who ever you went up against.. haha. If I had watched some of your matches when you weren't up against one of my friends I would have cheered for you! XD; Congrats on first~! Spirit Juice - I wish I had gotten to talk to you more~ thanks for running the BB tourny, and for making me feel less nervous..! Koogy - Thank you for the discount on my shirts~! Storm really liked the one I got him, good luck with Brokentier, I can't wait to see what you come up with next. :3 OH and thanks again for letting me steal your stick for some of my matches~ Rest o' SoCal people (You all know who you are!) - Thanks for letting me tag along, I had an amazing time, I hope to get better one of these days! But for real, you guys are seriously awesome and made me feel really welcomed even though Andrew couldn't make it. It really means a lot to me and I love hanging out with all you guys~[/gay] <3 And to anyone I missed.. Sorry! I worked all day, and my memory's kinda fuzzy.. ]: kthxbye. :D
Dacidbro Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 You made a powerful enemy on Saturday, Sam. :8/:
Digital Watches Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 It's okay, there's a secret hard-counter to Flacid built into reality for just such an occasion.
Dacidbro Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 hard counter.. flacid.. I don't like where this is going, watches
severin Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 Does nobody seem to realize that Flaccid has two C's?
Dacidbro Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 @ willy: In the context of "hard countering flacidbro", your post is only horrifying to me Severin: YES! FLACCID IS AN IMPERFECT REPLACEMENT. IM SAVED
Zenmetsu Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 I've been spelling it with two c's since the moment I made it up. Also, FlaccidSis came before Flaccidbro true story (Flaccidbro's mildy unattractive but has a nice personality older sis)
Mike Z Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 Yeknom - the GG-always-happens triumvirate is Max > you / you > me / me > Max. So in order for one of us to win, another of us has to have a random loss before facing both opposing members of the Triforce. So far that's always been me...shoutouts to being out of practice! :^P And though Flacidbro may be wrong-for-the-pun's-sake it forever changed my real-life pronounciation of Dacidbro to dak-sid-bro.
Kenny tuty Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 Yeknom needs to stop using eddie against me. It's been 4 out of 4 so far in tourneies. My jam doesn't know anything but against baiken because of the thousands of matches against Nerina (and tamaki). Over 90% of my GG experiences are about Jam vs baiken. I'm sure I can write a book about this match up. lol
Mike Z Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 HYAPPOSHINSHOU -> win? Short book, Ken. ;^) If Yeknom had stopped using Eddie, SoCal would still have a GG scene. (^.^)
Digital Watches Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 hard counter.. flacid.. I don't like where this is going, watches I was wondering if you'd pick up on that. Also: I HELLA know how that triforce game works. I think I've got one in PNW with our baiken and Wuku.
Kenny tuty Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 >>Mike Gosh! WHY I CAN'T DO IT! lol But yeah, the way to get there is very interesting in this match up. It's true that we can be completely random and pick a lucky win sometimes tho. haha GG is fun game even with eddie. I just don't have option against eddie coz I could never learn TK air throw against 1f jump. That move is way too hard for me. for the 3 years, I never ever pulled it out. With the stuff like NCI, I think we can bring it back again. Well, let's wait and see what arc system work is doing with GG.
Hellmonkey Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 I didn't even play against you at this tournament Ken! and I used way more Baiken than I normally do! and I'm sorry you feel that way Mike, but the scene was dying with the release of Blazblue either way.. it happened all across the country. Just not enough players in a close enough vicinity.
Kenny tuty Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 oh hey david. I was talking about the old ones. One of them are like west toast old. lol
Mike Z Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 Yeknom - yeah, I know it was BB (and would have been any other new Arc game), which makes me sad...in terms of gameplay systems, BB is a sorry hack next to GG. After things like Arakune/Nu/Ba-ba-ba-Baaaang, I can even forgive Eddie. That said, you're the best already, get on with the Baikening. :^D
Chun Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 There are too many people to shout out to... I usually don't shout out much because I can't write short appreciation. Well, a loop of Chiaki Takahashi's voice and Litchi candy will get me through it. Since Litchi is always first in my book, I will talk Litchis first. I'm so glad I got to fight more mirrors; being the only Litchi in Norcal tournaments was getting lonely. Kennyon: It was a lot of fun playing you in the MM and surprisingly in 2nd round. I learned a couple of new things about the mirror and are thinking over different approaches for future matches. Let's play again some time; once I get around to polishing my theory (And not horribly sucking due to a worn down D button and lag) I'll post a new thread guide. I hear you're quite the chef from friends, maybe I should ask for a karaage match, hahaha. Zenmetsu/Max: A solid Litchi, I enjoyed watching your iteration on the loops and the match you had in top 8. I think like Ken you both have the execution to do so much more damage output than the loops you are doing now, with actually less effort, www. I'll definitely inform you both first when I get some solid data down. Thanks a lot for letting me borrow your stick in my unfortunate last match. Severin: It's ok, I forgive you for dodgemonkey-ing our MM, because you were a pretty cool guy. We never got to play unfortunately. We'll trade Ara-Aras eventually, I look forward to it. Now for Norcal, in no particular order. Coopa: Without you, I'd lose to the biggest of tager gimmicks in the world. Let's keep talking tactics, for SECTOR SEVEEEEEEEEEEEN. No homo. Dacidbro: Hey man, we were in another tournament! Except like, there weren't any warthogs, so you were probably hella disappoint. The fact I could take a couple matches off you in the course of all things makes me feel a little better about myself as a BB player, thanks for the pep talks and the support up until now. I'll make you give me that 5$ back soon! OrionXElite: We're so salty! But it's ok, we'll qualify the next NCI 5v5 for sure! Always fun having dinner and talking about things with you. You're no longer Mr. Quiet Tager Guy in my book, it's all hype, all the time. Noej/Kelvin: So uh, I added you on facebook, dude, how was I supposed to guess unless you told me outright, lol. Don't worry about the 5v5 button problem anymore, I'll see you around campus and I'll just have to defeat you next qual! Ginseng: YOU SO TROLL. But it's ok, it's great having you as a friend to help me work out my information and helped me practice some strings. Too bad I can't play SCII, then you can beat my turtle photon cannons until you GG yourself. Tsubaki for top tier in BB:CSII! PhaneonH: Thank you so much for the ride home. I'm convinced I should start playing GG again. I really enjoyed the talk we had on the way, and glad you made it. Scott/Spirit Juice: We didn't get to play at NCI, oh well, it's not like you'd play your waifu or anything. But hearing your salty commentary makes any tournament worth it, for sure. Thanks for the brackets and the hype! Aginor: Nice work on the brackets, we live so close but we don't play, wut up with that, wut up with that[/sNL]. Last I heard you're playing Mu, not Noel; if you have the time I want to learn that match up. Keep taking that money! Goryus: Good seeing you, didn't get to play! I need to learn me some more sadistic robot strats. Thanks for the kind words. Rin: Dammit you so furry. I mean, man, so so furry. Hypedogs and colon three. Thanks for recording exactly one match for me to study; your camera doesn't ruin me anymore! I'll just have to show my best combos in matches since you opted me out for baloney. Don't hurt yourself doing all that Uploading, we need you for the future[/selfishgains]. Seriously, thanks for your work. TaoFTW: We will miss you furry commandant JohnKR. Good going for the first NCI. I'm sorry I couldn't have contributed more from the research into SJSU on Family Vacation, but no one seems to remember I tried to help anyway, hahaha. We'll be waiting for your catface return, you have 500 fans on stream who are as well. Willy: The Pho place we went to was amazing, and search your feelings, you know all of them to be noodles. Vineeth: You got a lot better with Hakumen (See: A lot more annoying for me to fight), and I look forward to seeing even harsher combos without drops. Gotta string 'em like Filip, and make Litchis like me more irritated! 2GB: Your combos are fun to watch as always. Sometimes it seems like you crumble once a string of yours or mixup is completely blocked. If you work on those entrances, I think you'll be even more dangerous; we'll play again eventually at SVGL! STenSatsu: Sorry for being a little salty after our match. I swear setup 3 was lag-cursed, I didn't win a single match on that monitor or get inputs out on it all day. Next we meet I'll give you more of a fight. We need to play more Mr. FBRin, Gin can't be the only Tsubaki ChunandRice learns from! Honnou: You're just a cool dude man. When I get the time to play GG at some lengths, we do more Isuka 4Ps! See you next tournament! And now, SoCal: Xie: Man, I didn't play you at all. Next time you're up I definitely want to experience some of that major stream trolling, hahaha. Stay cool. Zong_ONE: Thanks for the matches, no matter how buzzed you were, that Carl is still pretty scary to fight. Glad we finally got to play some, and you're probably glad that 3$ is in your pocket. See you again, keep rocking that awesome stick of yours. Mike_Z: Nice to finally meet you, I'm very impressed at the fact that Skullgirls is scratch-coded. Next we meet I'll fight Soviet Damage with Chinese Medicine! Ban--er Makoto Camero: It was good to finally meet you, the man behind the name of troll-age on forums. Good to play another Makoto, thanks for that MM, I learned a great deal from it and appreciate the patience to get me a clip of my play from that day. Till we meet again, "X" Camero. Pulsr: Dammit man, I only played your Ragna. Next time I hope I can play your Mu, that tutorial guide was all kinds of fancy. ...and Misc. Koogy: Great seeing you, I'm waiting on that shirt that displays my undying affection for Cigarette Man/Kokushi Musou/Thirteen Orphans super. You should play BB more often, your match was hype. Haunts: We didn't talk much but you moved in and out of that setup a lot so you probably saw me tons of times. Thanks for the hosting of the stream and your contribution to the BB community. Bohemian Polka: That wave on stream was for you, I saw the chat! PNW needs to make a second trip, we need to see more awesome Rachels! Chaos90 + Friend : I apologize I don't remember both your names from McDonalds, but it made me happy you recognized me from the convention, good to meet you both. Please try to make more tournaments, the more the merrier! For anyone I missed, I am glad to have re-met/met for the first time/met IRL with you! I'm so tired! It's 5AM! I have class! I am out of candy! I have type A blood! I hope the time I spent writing this was worth it! Till next tournament! ~Chun

ZONG_one Posted August 31, 2010 Posted August 31, 2010 I'm going to learn Dizzy and bother you guys. Shout outs to Yeknom again. Shouts outs to Sammyhime again. And shout outs to Chun. Reason being: giving me shout outs.
