Shoutouts to NEVER GETTING TO THE CONCERT

I was wondering where you guys were. We arrived late so I was worried you guys thought that we dropped the show and left. No worries though! The fact you guys were planning on going is rad enough. It was a verrry small show, so you didn't miss too much. I do appreciate it!

Shoutouts to X9 for being awesome!

Shoutouts to Cheese for driving 600 kajillion miles to press buttons.

Shoutouts to Katz for being my son.

Shoutouts to Johnny for randomly becoming really good at Guilty Gear sometimes when he plays.

Shoutouts to Super Happy Fun Time Sing Alongs with Vyers and Tales for being wonderful as always.

Shoutouts to Denny's for switching to AC+R already. I tried to order a Fuujin again, but they no longer serve cole slaw. They nerfed that shit.

Shoutouts to having random people watching us play.

Shoutouts to s'hitboxes.

Shoutouts to Cheese + cardgames.

Shoutouts to Chaos Code and Skullgirls.

Shoutouts to KoFing.

Shoutouts to not having the jacket I ruined by ripping up and throwing at Tales when I was kind of drunk after last casuals' Denny's, but keeping the end of the sleeve as a wristband. /poverty

Oh, and if Johnny can't get it to run on his laptop, we were talking about getting VampSav to casuals via someone's laptop. If anyone cares enough to volunteer, it'd be appreciated.

Yeah, for sure!

I actually picked up Slayer and with GG finally having online I have put in some time. We should play some. :D

We should! I need different game to practice my dark arts on. Hmm hmm heh heh heh...

It's really more like 100 miles, but hey who's counting

:v:

Shoutouts to playing just about everyone in GG and CC.

Shoutouts to facing down Katz in SG with my DP Assault Squad.

Shoutouts to randomly getting abducted into a deck-building card game for an hour or so (and actually finding it enjoyable).

@TeenRyu: Glad you posted up man! I remember you. I was the Rachel player from CT Con. We play games in Ludlow, MA a few times a month. If you have a method of transportation and want to come mash anime with us, send me or Furok a PM for more info!

@Jacope: Good meeting you at Gaming Etc!

After talking to Jamal about the game lineup at New Challengers, it seems they are willing to hold P4U at the next tournament because its at EVO. Soo, for anyone of you interested in the game, I think we should show up in bulk at the next one to rep the game. It's been a while since there's been a legit anime tournament in New England too. I'll post a thread with details when I hear about them

Ah.We stopped for Chinese and ending up arriving a;bout a half hour late, and then I wasn't sure we were at the right place. I guess if we try to make it out to another show I'll pm you for a description of the venue.

Chaos Code is mad fun.

Glad to hear that they're expanding their lineup .

Does anyone have a room for NEC? I just checked the Holiday Inn and they're booked.

Lazy post. Since I'm the new department head of Video Games for Connecticon, obligatory post. We are having a P4u/Smash Bros tournament happening on March 9 at our Connecticon office.

Where: 705 North Mountain Road, Newington CT

What: P4u/Smash Tournament

When: March 9. Signups start at 12pm, Tournaments begin at 1pm

Bring your own controller, yadda yadda. I'm looking to have a good number of setups.

So I'm alive I guess.And I'm pretty determined to actually play games again. Not just go to a single casual and be awkward for a few hours, but actually /press the buttons/. I know WB is this weekend and I just didn't plan ahead for that, but next time a casuals happens I'D LIKE TO GO AND LEARN HOW TO GAME AGAIN.

:I Who are you?

Also, I swear that if I ever have to play a game as "technical" as KoF again I'm going to flip a table covered with fast food and a microwave oven.

Jokes aside; I don't like having to conduct dark rituals wrestle with the input registry system to perform generally simple inputs. :psyduck: It isn't like I can't do them (most of them, and most of the time), it just feels like an unnecessary pain in the thumbs. Feels like SF4 shoryuken-syndrome again.

I was going to add a link to the end of that, but I can't find the original. Example of weird things are 464 working for a 421 input, and (mash the fuck + spin stick) for shun goku satsu/raging demon

Dr.OnBlast happens to be a relic of the Battlegrounds CT crew who sacrificed gaming for cosplay. Whythehellnaut hosts casuals every other week or so (with breaks due to major events that he abandons us for) so Stay Tuned.

Does anyone have a room for WB? I just checked the Holiday Inn and they're booked.

Unfortunately, the room cannot support any additional biological organisms, much less extra people. I attempted to contact Nazgul to see if he was going/had a room, but he is unable to make it to WB. I would suggest trying to get in contact with BlueNine or perhaps Kona and see what kind of leads they might have. If that doesn't work out or you have already talked to them, let me know so I can work some voodoo magic on my end.

Unfortunately, the adventures of Aoko Aozaki Hernandez have concluded. I'd suggest picking up a character in BB or P4U, and may a new saga unfold.

I've never quite described it as well as you. Bravo.

Sorry that I missed casuals. Saturday is the only day I'm guaranteed to be able to talk to the chefs/managers of potential employers. Now that I have successfully blanketed the state in resumes, though, I should be good-to-go for our next meeting.

Nazgul is going? That'd be cool, thought he was swamped with work again though.

A room opened up! Yay! Anyone wish to join us? right now we only have 3 people

edit: Jeremy thanks for the advice/ offer to voodoo me up a space I appreciate it.

Been a while since I've seen you on DL. As far as WB goes, what's keeping you from going? If it's just a room that's no problemo. If not then, well, I'll see you at casuals. Which you should return to. Definitely.

Gosh, my reputation precedes me. But, yes, this basically.

I figured as much. And now that i'm over throwing tantrums about how games are bad because I am bad, I'm willing to make the step back into BB and actually try and play P4U for realsies.

I work this weekend! And didn't request the time off, so next tournament for sure. I'm also so bad atm. I'd much prefer to get my shit together before sashaying my way into tournaments! But I do plan on hitting up casuals when I can!

Fun games last night Katz, netplay on GG isn't as bad as they say. I put some time in GG so I hope it showed. :D

I've had perfect connections on it. It can just be finicky sometimes. You improved greatly since the last time I flailed against your Order Sol. I need to refine my offensive game, otherwise I can't match your damage orz

:roboky: Who do you play in BB?

Speaking of casuals, someone tell me the cheapest bus from NYC to CT. I wanna make it to a casuals sometime soon.

That being said, I think I overexerted myself after Katsucon. I've just been sleeping and going to class and thats it. Not wise considering Winter Brawl is in 3 days ;_;

Bus? Take Metro North's Harlem line from Grand Central to Southeast for, like, $12.50. That's how I commute to Manhattan. I'll pick you up and drive you to casuals.
