Montreal: Le Thread Generale Pour Weeaboo Fighters

[RurouniLoneWolf]

 

Also, thanks for coming guys. Sorry for running so late. I didn't even know about Arcana until someone told me afterwards. Gotta prep more and axe some games next time.

 

I don't think you necessarily need to axe games (Except running both Smash 4 3DS and Smash 4 Wii U. FUCK. THAT. NOISE). Regardless of what you decide, I think you should consider focusing on improving how smoothly each of the individual tournaments run. There were a few times in most of the anime tournies where all or most of the tourny setups didn't have any matches running. People being busy playing other games was probably a part of this problem but I didn't really feel it was the entire problem. I can't really say for certain what were the other problems because I don't think I have the complete picture. Though, it did feel like the whole going back and forth between running it on paper and challonge was problematic. Also, it seemed like if the person running the bracket had to go play or do something, the bracket wouldn't get passed on to anyone else to run it like it did at the previous Ottawa tourny I attended. I could be wrong though.

Also, to make sure games with DLC characters have the DLC available on the setups running the tourny, consider deciding and keeping track of who's going to provide the setups before the tournament. I don't think this was an issue for anything but Persona and even then, I think I'm the only one who was affected by it and it didn't really matter because I only wanted to play Marie on a whim to give her some tourny XP too. But there is a small chance that this could affect someone in the future so I thought I should bring it up anyway.

Other than that though, I thought it was an awesome tournament and I was happy to make it out again for an Ottawa tournament. My only disappointment was accidentally not getting put into the UNIEL bracket. Combine that with the fact I didn't get to play any casuals because I was too busy dodging the mirror match against the Nanase army and I didn't get to play any UNIEL ;.; Oh well, these things happen. Thanks a lot for all your hard work Krackatoa and everyone from Ottawa for making this happen. I appreciate it. Be sure to let us know the next time you run one of these! Also, thanks for making the journey Waterloo! It was great to see you guys again. I'll look forward to seeing you guys again at CECC2 if it's still happening.

[pochp]

starting today?

yeah, today included.

[Krackatoa]

Well, for one, imma axe 3DS.

Everything else is duly noted.

Getting people for tourney matches would have been smoother if we had a megaphone. Normally I also do a shout out of everyone on the bracket before we start. I delegated too much with too little instruction.

Weekly News Post

NEC is coming up, and with how this last tournament went I really need to grind harder. I'll be hosting Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday (so, NOT Wednesday). 7pm at the earliest, I'll kick you guys out at 11:30 or so (Friday will still be 6:30 to X am). I'll focus on mostly BB, but also GG, DFC, and UNIEL, so not playing anything else until after NEC. Anyway, just show up if you want to play, I'll be doing training mode if no one shows up. Maybe Sunday afternoon/evening too if anyone's interested.

Guess I'll be showing up on Thursday then

[Rhannmah]

yeah, today included.

 

i'll be there tonight

[Daisy-Fan]

thanks for the result list, as expected to see been see a couple of us in top 10 smash wii u. gj everyone.

[GreeniX]

Krackatoa - 7

 

Am I my own worst nightmare?

You absolutely are. However I regret informing you that prior to the event we had decided that whoever gets further into the mystery game tournament is the tiebreaker, so I STILL WIN HA HA HA

 

I'm sorry I held up so many brackets I won't do it again~

 

Probably.

If anything the Melee people openly disliked that I was playing anything else than Melee for the entire day so uh. I might skip that one.

I actually own a megaphone, bought specifically for some tourney running I did a long time ago. It's pretty great for destroying your own throat just a little less. Maybe I can bring it next time.

[Psykotik]

Now that I've finally woken up from dying after staying up to catch up on all of my school work, GGs to everyone I played in various games. Was nice seeing you all again. 

 

Shoutouts to Kingsley (I don't think he's even on this board?) for housing Wloo. We seriously can't thank you enough to being able to host us on such short notice and really appreciate what you've done for us.

[Kyokugenfight]

GGs to people I played. Sorry for the bad BB performance, haven't played in months Hehe. It was a very fun tourney, thanks to the guys who organized this. Hoping this isn't the last, finally playing offline felt great.

 

Hope to see you guys again!

Dude, I used up all my good Kula resets (AKA two variations of the same one) in our match, I can't win anymore. But yeah sure KOF is a fun game and I almost never get to play it so I'm up for some more fite-ing. Whenever we meet next, which is to say, ???

[Krackatoa]

I just want more people to play KOF with. It's a dead game here. T T

[LiveWireX]

I would, but like you said, nobody plays it and I know little to nothing in the way of input shortcuts or combos for that game, lol.

 

And I totally remember a bunch of people wondering who that "kyokugenfighto guy is that's bodying people with Labrys" was, but...finding out he's from MTL makes everything make so much more sense.

We should be going as a group once again! Just curious, I don't see uniel in the games list, are there going to be a few side events (maybe along with dfc, ggxx+r...), or are they cut due to the fact that it's a one day event.

edit : Post here if you're interested in coming so we can plan rides and hotel rooms http://www.sankishin.com/board/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=295

Thats a very good question. I think Russell doesnt want to run it himself, but we can probably push for it as side games. (If everyone makes a post about it in the FB we can make it an official).

Pour Brice, parce qu'il a probablement oublié

Just a reminder, hosting again tonight, 7pm onwards.

Yo, didn't realize you were from Montreal too. Feel free to come over to a meetup one day, if you want more offline play. We mostly play BB, GG, UNiEL, and Sm4sh, but a few of us also play Persona, DFC, and some other FGs.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yEHJbiIhIeY GGACR Top8 from the SUPER Gonq Battles is up :D

 

It has been edited to only show the matches and there's timestamps in the description, player names and a link to the challonge bracket. woop woop

 

It's the complete top8 at the exception of Rhannmah VS Yuri which wasn't recorded......

 

The blazblue matches that we have on record are being compiled and edited in the same way right now. get hype. (the challonge brackets aren't finished for blazblue though... :P)

 

Edit : Blazblue is now processing for another eternity and it's going to be up. I am a pro at poorly editing videos with the not so great but free editor tool Youtube has to offer.
