Thanks to everyone for coming out on short notice! Unfortunately we didn't have enough people to run the danisen or Gundam but we did run a Guilty Gear kumite/gauntlet as a welcoming event for KBnova and we ran another big team battle but I think I might have to ban Pain and 2GB from being team captains... lol. The next Norcal Dogfight will be on the third Saturday of October which will be October 20.

Aquapazza Single Elimination Tournament (Our first official Aquapazza tournament!)

NBA JAM - Ehuangsan's Reign (Next up: NFL Blitz!)

Thanks again to everyone who came out and made this a successful Norcal Dogfight! (despite it being fairly laid-back)

We had pretty good coverage on all our games albeit some might say that the results of the P4U 8v8 were somewhat lackluster =X although it was still really fun to watch.

NBA Jam was insanely hype and it always brings a smile to my face to see old school games like these make it into Dogfight and onto our stream!

DJ Cream (and also later Lark) deserve a special shoutout for being amazing commentators during those games!

We didn't have that many EXVS players turn up so that played a role in choosing not to have any Gundam on stream for this Dogfight. Don't worry, there's always next time!

I personally had a lot of fun playing Guilty Gear yesterday despite not having a lot of our staple players. KBNova's Anji and Zappa are extremely legit and he pretty much ran a train on all of our regular GG players.

I am not quite up to speed on P4U anymore, but from the looks of it his Yukiko was also quite strong and I'm extremely glad to see that we have such a strong addition to the Norcal FGC.

As always thanks to Myung and Roy for being instrumental to the successful and smooth running of Norcal Dogfight! Special thanks to Myung for going out of his way to help with the setup of the SNES games.

Thanks to everyone who stepped up and did commentary and also those who helped out running the stream in my absence!

According to Dakanya, the next Norcal Dogfight should be in about 4 weeks which should coincide with the console re-release of Guilty Gear XX Accent Core!

Until next time!

P.S.: Dark Talon - The fonts used for the P4U overlay were Kozuka Gothic Pro and Impact.

Lol 8v8 was painful but oh well still fun and everything. And NBA JAM is the most hilarious thing I've ever seen. Thanks as usual to Myung for allowing to host, and you guys for running stuff. Fun as always!

Shoutouts to Himawari for being open until 11:30 and being empty when we got there.

Shoutouts to mashing DoA5 with Manabe, taking pictures of our girls' win poses.

Shoutouts to KBNova and his Anji, which ran a train through most of us. Makes me want to level up in (and play more) GG.

The next Dogfight is next Sat, Oct 20! Would people be game if Guilty Gear and Gundam was just $1 to enter? Tourny format may be TBD on-site.

Posted

Don't know If I'm going to be able to hit up Dogifhgt or NCI as often due to Caltrain schedule changes unless I can find a place to crash.

Posted

Yeah it did, used to be I could catch it at 12:45, now it stops running at 11:27.

Posted

Hey this is kinda short notice but it's been suggested that we run a week later instead so Dogfight would coincide with the PS3 GGAC release. I don't mind but what does everyone else think?

Posted

Thanks for giving me your input everyone! I've decided to move Norcal Dogfight one week later to Saturday, October 27th! Get hype for PS3 Guilty Gear!

The real problem w/ xbox will be sticks. thkthkthkthk will be bringing his xbox and Tsubasa will be supplying two sticks I think?

I can currently provide 2 sticks and a PS2->360 converter for people who want to use their own sticks/pads.

After taking the past couple of Dogfights into consideration, this is what I've planned for this week. Don't hesitate to give your feedback.

Major points of change

I will be leaving early

Unfortunately I have to leave early this Dogfight but Aginor will be running P4U in my place so please assist him!

There will not be a P4U danisen

Although the danisen has been fun, I've already had to cancel it a couple times due to low turnout and I have realized that it is difficult to have a danisen at an event with other games going on at the same time. The other games distract people from participating in the danisen and with that on top of the shaky turnouts, it makes it difficult to justify having the danisen. I've thought of a couple ideas to get around this such as having half the ranks play from 3pm~4pm and having the other half of them play from 4pm~5pm but ultimately I'm going to need some more help to keep the danisen going. Let me know if you liked it, if you still care about it, and/or if you'd be willing to help officially run it.

Gundam is to be cut from the stream

Cutting Gundam from the stream allows us the freedom of running it whenever people want. Due to how much of a hassle it is to stream Gundam in the first place and how almost nobody could make it last time, it's actually quite difficult to schedule stream time for Gundam so this could be for the best.

Guilty Gear will be 6-man round robin pools + bracket

In an effort to address the concerns about the potential gap in skill and experience, I have decided to try running round robin pools so people can get in more tournament matches. In this format, everyone is guaranteed to play at least 5 sets instead of just 2. The top 3 of each pool will earn the right to advance to a final bracket.

$1 entry, winner takes all

entrants are to be seeded into round robin pools of 6

top 3 of each pool advances to a final bracket

P4 Danisen: I agree. Tbh I've only even participated in the danisen once due to either having to miss Dogfight or it just being canceled. I personally don't mind just having a tourney, but I certainly would participate if it was there. Also I haven't ever really helped run anything before but if people were needed I'd be happy to learn/help.

Gundam: Good. Gundam is hard and I don't want to be exposed on stream.

GG: Sounds good. I think I wanna try to learn GG so if I can get bodied at least 5 times instead of 2 I'm all for it. Probably better for people in general who are picking it up too I guess.

Lookin' forward to this week :UUU
