Now, I do love me some CopperDabbit. GJ yo!

Well, Magna Tech Wheel works the same way, which is why sometimes you can see the other person RC way before the flash but they still can't block it. I honestly thought more people would notice this...

Did...um...did you mean "Not if I come!", or do you just wish you were from SoCal? :^) Any any rate, for those unfamiliar with Texas, I completely vouch for the awesomeness of Arcade UFO (except that last time I was there everything was a dollar, whyyy...) and the SUPER awesomeness of everyone from Texas who you will meet while there. <3!

FYI, VCharge actually has another advantage: When they touch you, they go through extended autoguard hitstop, but Tager doesn't go through any hitstop at all. What that means is if they hit you with something, and you let go of the button at the same time, most/all of the recovery of the Charge is during the opponent's extended hitstop. For heavier attacks, this can actually let you do your command grab much earlier in the recovery of their attack, compared to IBing. This lets you punish certain attacks (Jin's 6D, for example) that you otherwise can't, plus since they can actually get stuck in hitstop it can allow you to do 720s that they can't even RC->jump out of.

SoCal is going to win this. <3

You really should include Urien's crotch in that, Zong.

I'll play you, Yeknom. FT5 for negative $5. :^)

I won't be in town on the 17th-18th, so rah rah the 11th etc, like Dacid. :^P

Yeah, but that day was RENDSDAY. Also I have to say, John Rog, I think you came through juuuuust fine. I couldn't have asked for more for BB!

He works at Aksys, doing all the jobs nobody wanted to do like cleaning toilets and mopping up barf after late-night drinking parties. Well no, but he really does work at Aksys. BOMBARD HIM WITH BBCS CONSOLE PMS NOW!

Close. 2A buffer a 360 to 6, hold 6 to walk, 2nd 360+C. So for example, 2A buffer 62486, walk, 248C. Like 3s Hugo.

Dacid - LOL @ you being down $5. Blame it on the lack of entrants! SoCal made me kinda sad cuz of that - where were all you AI supporters?

This was much smoother than WCW1. No TV issues, no time issues for any tournament I was in, and tons of fun! A huge thanks to John Rog, congrats to render and ZONG for making top 4! Can't wait to see which character will buff themselves to the mirror-match tournament finals for BB3 at WCW3...maybe Taaaaager...

Even I would activate FRKZ for Panda Express!

Alright, somebody will have it there early. ;^)

That's a decent question. Are people (read: the organizers) expecting BB there Friday? I wasn't planning on attending, but if they want it, what time? ;^)

Make sure PhaethonH and Deci know you need their help, and it'll be alllllllll gooooood. Whichever one of them is there, that is.

No need to get defensive, yo. You won two tournaments, so clearly people are approaching playing against you wrong - especially if "only playing on stick for 10 weeks" matters at all, which I don't think it does. My suggestion didn't just come from playing you myself, I also watched the rest of your matches. 5A, and on defense jump or D...outside that, well...it's just that his D's give you a non-thinking way out a lot of the time. As a community, we need to up our game. Most good players will explain to everyone else how to beat them so they can improve; talk to Valle sometime. I figured I'd help you out a bit. (^.^) If you'd rather I not point out things, don't give me things to point out. 'sides, this community needs a little drama every once in a while, we hug too much. Damn you, you lovable bastard!

For the record I have not told Dacid I'm a better player. He's a cool guy. Now then...we need to band together as a community! Here's the secret vs. Dacid: Do things that end with you at plus frames (or even). Doesn't matter that he could try to throw you somewhere, or IB->super in the middle, he won't; he'll just 5A. Bait and punish. He's like Skynet - only scary after it learns to think. Never. Again.

qwerty - you're killing the hype for me more than anything else I've ever read about how un-hype BB is. GJ sir. Copper - I thought Ara ate Tao for breakfast! (Or any other random meal...)

I most certainly did not. :^P Also, Jason - Taokaka? LOL

Where're the results?

I think the reason Bang gets away with that is, he isn't posting references to current internet phenomena. Also I second (third?) Team Crampy Bitches.

HEY! Team Team was decided on for last Evo, and revived specially for Valentine's Day. Don't disparage it. :^)

You've...played Tager before, right? I mean you spent all that time making your avatar... Well anyway, 6A->2C xx MTW won't work because they'll be much too high, just like any other time you hit them out of the air; and you can't RC a whiff. However, you could do 6A->2C xx ACx2, MTW; and you can just let the AC whiff and do the usual reset if they tech, yes.
