Btw, I have a dentist appointment on Thursday (Halloween), so if anyone wants to come by on that day it'll have to be after 8 or so.

Posted (edited)

I'm at Mainbase to borrow Greg's LGP. And I'm gonna be a whistleblower: the only one studying right now is Jon. ;) CP and puzzle fighter being played.

Edit: aaand I just left without getting the LGP. (Goddamnit puzzle fighter!) Guess I'll have to see if I can come tmrw.

A&C is having another anime-only tournament on Sunday Nov 17th!

https://www.facebook.com/events/181218498737696/

Vote for AH3 as a side tourney! ($2 entry, since free entry was forbidden) I'm going to give a free Gamer Grub to whoever wins the "best name in the bracket" contest, as decided by votes from everyone in the bracket. (If Ryan wins, I'll buy him a burger from McDonald's or something. He might need to upgrade his name, though: I don't know if RyanHeart will be able to win it...)

Btw, I have a dentist appointment on Thursday (Halloween), so if anyone wants to come by on that day it'll have to be after 8 or so.

So A&C is having another venue, huh. I'll be happy to attend if I'm open, but I will make the effort to go.

Anyways... I may be able to come over to see you after 8 tomorrow Bill, if you're still up for it. I hope since if it's possible, me being able to play BBCP is just over the horizon!:)

Just to let you know, if I do come I'll only be able to stay for a couple of hours, if not if I'm able to stay the night and leave in the morning. Up to you dude, but BBCP, I want to play it so bad!!!

So I've been telling people to not emergency tech vs Kagura's oki with his orbs, because that forces you to block them and I get a free mixup (I'm almost Chie!)

Well, it turns out that at midscreen, you might be better off emergency teching, because if you don't, the 46B (usually) OTGs you and here's what happens:

Collapsed: Combos:
Near midscreen to their corner:

2A 2B 3C 2DC 46B (blue beat) 6C 6DB 5DC 2DA (delay 46B oki) [3086 +22]

Just over midscreen, difficult:

2A 2B 3C 2DC 46B (blue beat) 6C 6DA 2DB (46A oki near corner) [2762 +19]

Anywhere:

2A 2B 3C 2DC 46B (blue beat) 6C 6DA 3C 6DC [2884 +20]

Anywhere:

2A 2B 3C 2DC 46B (blue beat) 6C 6DA 2DA 5DC 28C [3604 +25]

So, if you don't emergency tech the big orb at midscreen, assuming I react fast enough, my 1.5k midscreen BnB turns into a 2.8k to 3.6k meterless damage combo, possibly with corner carry or corner orb oki.

On the other hand, if you do emergency tech, you could eat anywhere from 3k to 5k additional meterless damage if you don't block the high/low or left/right correctly... ;)

Well, IMO, if you're far away from your corner, then you should ALWAYS avoid teching and let the orb OTG you! If that happens, I have no way of putting you back into orb oki again. You may lose an extra 1.3k or 2k life, but I won't even be able to meaty your wake-up!

Generally, it's probably best to mix it up at least a bit. E.g. I guarantee I'll get lazy and stop looking for the no-emergency-tech if you almost always emergency tech, which means I won't be able to get big damage from the OTG and might actually end up whiffing a drive which gives you a free punish. :S

Anyways... I may be able to come over to see you after 8 tomorrow Bill, if you're still up for it. I hope since if it's possible, me being able to play BBCP is just over the horizon!:)

Just to let you know, if I do come I'll only be able to stay for a couple of hours, if not if I'm able to stay the night and leave in the morning. Up to you dude, but BBCP, I want to play it so bad!!!

Sure! I should be back by 7:30, actually. BBCP takes about 1.5 hours to download on my connection, IIRC.

If you have a cell phone, can you text me your #?

Come to think of it, if you don't have a cell phone, how am I going to know when you've arrived... :S My front door is behind a locked basement door. Well, if you check the bus schedules and tell me exactly when you expect to get off the iXpress at McCormick (assuming that's how you're getting here), I can estimate how long it'll take for you to walk here (10 minutes) and check outside at that time. If you're nowhere in sight, I'll assume you missed a bus and I'll check 15 or 30 minutes later, and so on until you show up or you borrow someone's phone to call me and tell me you can't make it.

Let me PM you my cellphone #. So if someone does go wrong, worst case you can borrow a phone from someone or use a payphone and let me know.

Okay, I'm heading towards Bill's house. Hope I can find it, but I'm confident that I will. Hope to see you and anyone there. Until then!

GGs Ryan! Hope to see you at Mainbase next time you can make it, Kirito!

Are ppl gonna be watching Kill La Kill at Mainbase tomorrow? Wanna know if I should just watch it on my own now (if it's out).

Day9 is currently playing Hamnesia: A Machine For Pigs:

http://www.twitch.tv/day9tv

He's currently maybe 40% through the part of the game that we played at Francis's house. It's great 'cause he plays it the same way we do: perpetually scared. :D

We should start making NEC room arrangements soon, Bill. We've only got a month to go.

Posted

Joe, do you need a room? Roldy booked a room and we need people for it. I'm planning to fly there Friday evening / night.

Posted

Yeah, I need a room. I'm looking to get there on Friday (whether it'll be in the morning or afternoon is TBD)

Found my list of video game quotes from like 12 years ago. I think the site that had them is dead, now. I'll post a few:

Instruction Booklet: "You wanted the best and you got this!"

Announcer: "Your next opponent is...INSANE WORRIER!"

Game Dialog, if you choose to use a knife on yourself: "Oh no! The knife accidentally fell out of your hand and cut your wrist open! You're dead!"

loool insane worrier

Btw Ryan, apparently there's a "Roomba" interactable in Injustice. :P

I just realized: Kagura can beat his Challenge #30 (deal 7000+ damage) at midscreen with only 18 meter, no OD or counter-hit needed. Also, the combo is so meter-positive that when you start with 100 meter, you finish the combo with 100 meter again.

No wonder Japan thinks he's at least A-tier, despite his shitty neutral. :)
