ToastCrust Posted April 25, 2011 Posted April 25, 2011 (edited) Need results on that K-On! PSP tournament man. I missed it by accident, cause I was too distracted at the panda bondage panel Edited April 25, 2011 by ToastCrust
woki Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFdyMpYWCNk This is my concept whenever I enter a fighting game tournament at anime convention. To be specific, it is about being the bad guy, trolling with some random top tier character (even though I got to practice combos only for a couple hours just for the tournament) in order to make [insert name of game] look bad. Still, I couldn't troll/cheese Dusty, cause he was too legit. I actually had to switch my character after my first loss and that was when the tournament ended for me, and I didn't care much after that match. They later told me that all top 4 players would get the prize, although I thought only the top 2 players would get the prize, knowing it was single elimination. Only if I knew that, I would have forfeited and let Dusty play the semi-final to claim his prize, even though I won the match. I gave the prize to Dusty later though, since he clearly deserved it, being too legit. PS. People kept asking me if I was running a GG tournament, but knowing there was no CRT TV in the game room, it was near impossible, and on top of that, I wasn't even planning to run it in the first place. Veteru told me he will mention it at the staff meeting so that we can get an access to CRT TVs in the game room, so we'll see next year. I did get to play GG:AC on CRT TV though... IN THE "RETRO" GAMING ROOM. That's right. GG is a retro game, and so is MB. A guy next to us was playing some Mario on Super Nintendo...
Seluecos Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 Hey guys! Had a ton of fun at the Tourney, do we have any idea when/where the vids will be up? Also: Tae, that wouldn't happen to have been me you forgot for the results would it? I remember beating the Rachel in the first match of top 16, then getting destroyed by sG in the next match xD
