[PSN] FT10s Season 2.1 (9/28, 10:00pm EST)

[LegendaryRath]

Antiquarian (Mitsuru) vs FluxWaveZ (Shadow Labrys) will be streamed Saturday 9/28 at 10:00pm EST, The stream will take place here http://www.twitch.tv/legendaryrath

Howdy,

For some reason, the interest in FT10s dropped off the map (on ps3 anyway). But I still remember plenty of people wanting to see them and/or take part in them. Personally, while it's interesting to spectate two community picked top players, I feel that voting for interesting dream matches (bananaken vs XXX, etc) makes it difficult for average/regular players to get picked for FT10s. On the assumption that the chosen players are willing to participate, I'm still game for setting those up. I just also want people to be open to others playing as well. If we leave it completely up to voting, then we'll just end up seeing brkrdave, LK, TSK and Bobby in every set (thanks for being good sports so far).

I want to continue the previous voting process, but not strictly. If anyone in particular wants to call someone out for a FT10, please go for it! I'm a pretty boring guy, with nothing going on. I can stream most days of the week, and I'm sure I can get SOMEONE on the mic to commentate (Colpevole, you promised!).

Let's aim for at least one FT10 streamed per week (voted), and any call-outs/arranged-matches can be done in addition to that. Just please, work with me on the times. Since I don't know your work or school schedules, let me know when you're available for your matches. If I can't get in contact with you for your matches, then I might need to cancel or postpone that particular set. Shit happens, Stuff comes up, I understand that completely. Just don't make me block off a Friday/Saturday evening only to not end up streaming anything. I'll check this thread consistently and I guess I can start using twitter again if some of you prefer that (@LegendaryRath).

To keep this up to date, I would like anyone interested in participating (or commentating) to reply to this thread with their PSN and Region. For the time being I will post the old list of names, but hopefully it can be replaced soon. On second thought, I'm doubtful that we'll be able to make another list of names that well, and it seems like a lot of work. If you never expressed interest in the previous thread and you would like to participate, please still reply with your PSN, Region, and also which character you would like to play as.

I'll update the original post as more people sign up. I'd like to know how much interest there still is for this sort of thing, so even if you are already on the list somewhere, please still reply with something.

I'll set up something for voting soon, within a few days. Hopefully we can aim for the first FT10 on the weekend of the 28th/29th.

Finally, if anyone wants to set up their own matches, just post on this thread. "I'd like to fight 'so-and-so'" and assuming they're down for it, we can make it happen. In this case I can still stream it, probably after our weekly FT10, but that decision is up to you. If you'd prefer it to be private, then go for it. It's OK to use this as a tool for setting up your own FT10s. THEY'RE FUN, nobody could blame you.

I'm just going to go ahead and throw my name on the list. I'd rather not play anytime soon, but I would definitely enjoy holding a FT10 with someone in the future :D

Like usual in fighter games, I'll most likely get killed, but I'll sign up.

[LegendaryRath]

I'm taking suggestions for the first FT10 (I guess you could consider this season 2.1?). Feel free to make suggestions here, or if you prefer to remain anonymous, I created a SUGGESTION FORM THINGY. I'll close the poll in a few days. With any luck, we can have our first set next weekend.

Hopefully some people are still interested in participating. If there doesn't seem to be any interest within a few days, maybe weeks, then I'll just close the thread and try again for BBCP.

[Antiquarian]

I'll toss my hat in for this weekend. Wild Candy is also East Coast so if they're interested I think a FT10 between us being two of the new bloods to this "league" could be interesting and our connection should be good.

One thing I'm considering doing is FT5s with some less experienced players, where we get commentators who play those characters and can focus on suggestions/tips/improvement. Maybe we can have our regular voted FT10 for an hour or two, followed by post-match commentary, then the FT5. If the players want/approve, I can upload the sets and commentary to youtube so they can look back on it later for improvement.

[FluxWaveZ]

Not exactly familiar with what this is, but whatever gets me to play more matches against experienced players.

added to the list. wait, you live in Canada? How on earth is our connection so manageable? #Fluxsgodlikeinternetserviceprovider

[Antiquarian]

Flux I would love to do a FT10 with you sometime soon, our matches are usually pretty good.

[FluxWaveZ]

Sure, sounds like fun.

[LegendaryRath]

Would you guys like to do it this weekend after the voted FT10?

[Antiquarian]

I'm down for virtually whatever, but I go out for locals all day on Saturdays so Sunday would be a better day for me personally. But I can make Saturday night work if that's what ends up being better for everyone else.

[LegendaryRath]

I was thinking Saturday night, to not interfere with MastaToken's PSN tourney on Sunday, which I'm excited for. But I'm not putting my foot down on anything, so it depends on the players schedules. I can stream Saturday or Sunday. I was just assuming it might be best not to over-do persona on any one day.

[Antiquarian]

Oh man is that this coming weekend too? Saturday night is then. I guess my weekend has just been taken over by the fightan gaems.

[FluxWaveZ]

Saturday sounds good.

[LegendaryRath]

Alright, Saturday it is. I'm off work too, so any time in the afternoon/evening should be fine. I'll make sure it doesn't overlap with MastaToken's stream though. I'll close the suggestion form tomorrow evening, so get all your matchup ideas in. I want to start the voting process early so we have time to notify the players before saturday.

If this potential 'FT5 critiques' idea gets off the ground, then I'd like to participate.

I'm at least going to give it a chance. Since I'm already going to potentially be streaming two FT10s Saturday, maybe we'll save it for next time though.

Cool, I get back from locals around 9:30~ish PM EST so that should give the XBL tournament plenty of time to finish before hand since it starts at 3:00 PM EST.

[LegendaryRath]

Around Midnight or when I go to bed, whichever comes first, I'll close the suggestion form and open up voting.

So far we have...

ShinSyn(Yu) vs Axis(Kanji)

Canti(Kanji) vs VR-Raiden(Yu)

Ehrik vs Bace

TSK vs Diarmud

DioSpyrOs (Broske) VS NeoZeromus (Naoto)

"AntLquarian vs BrokenStar96" since Antiquarian is already doing a FT10 with Flux, I'll put this aside for now.

Does anyone want to take responsibility for 'Furby vs Shelby'? gave me a good laugh. I had a furby when I was younger. I dropped it down the stairs and it started screeching uncontrollably, without being able to shut it off. I can't remember if we smashed it or got the batteries out first.

edit: I think we panicked and smashed it. I was like, eight.

[LegendaryRath]

I opened up a poll, so get to voting! Please, just don't abuse this. I'll think something's up if I see 692 votes. I'll close the poll Thursday and contact the players so we can (hopefully) set this up Saturday evening.

Suggestions now closed. here's the results...

ShinSyn(Yu) vs Axis(Kanji)

Canti(Kanji) vs VR-Raiden(Yu)

Ehrik vs Bace

TSK vs Diarmud

Furby vs Shelby lol

Ehrik vs. Bace submitted twice

AntLquarian vs BrokenStar96 Don't want Antiquarian doing two FT10s on the same day.

DioSpyrOs (Broske) VS NeoZeromus (Naoto) Zeromus doesn't have internet available at the moment

edit: updated the original post with the poll and new information.

EDIT2: IF YOU SEE YOUR NAME LISTED AND ARE UNABLE TO PARTICIPATE, PLEASE LET ME KNOW ASAP.

[OmnixTSC]

Ehrik vs Bace

Isn't Bace's TV still out of commission? I don't see how this would work out unless he's already given the OK for it. I'm sure that when people selected Bace they wanted to see his Liz, but I highly doubt he'd use Liz when he'd have to work with screen delay b/c of his capture card being the only way for him to see the game feed. Please correct me if I'm wrong, though.

[Hypermarth]

Yosuke vs Liz is a MU I've only heard about in fairy-tales... so that sounds like fun :P

I believe during the XBL ranbat 4 weeks ago he said he was working on a way to fix it, not sure if he did though.

[VR-Raiden]

Thanks for the PM, probly wouldnt have seen this otherwise. Sadly I won't be able to play if its this weekend, I'll be taking a rare chance to play offline. So vote for the other Kanji Yu match I guess lol
