"Arcana Heart Three. Pumapatay ng bata. Sabi ni Allan"

Pilit na rhyme hahaha KAMOWN HAKOOMEHN!!! Regarding bracketting, walang magcomplain pag tuloy tuloy tager hahaha. I think someone had to play against 2 consecutive tagers at one point. at bakit trending ang #replaceawordinafamousquotewithduck sa twitter?

@bert Syempre tol, papakinggan yan. For the betterment of the community naman e. Complain kasi si F.Champ sa semis na bakit friend niya kalaban niya. And i thought laru lang niya sa mvc3 ang pinoy. @Matt Lol oo natalo nga nila lakers na wala si lebron. hahaha swak sa term @allan "beach party" rhymes with "AH3"

@Bert I'm still siding on 'pure-random' sa pooling or bracketting though D= I've already given my point of argument. Its not a matter of not trying new things really. Again location pooling to me isn't a OMG BAD IDEA, MUST STEER AWAY. Its just an idea that doesn't feel right because why complain when sooner or later magkikita then kayo? Mag filipino champ ka ba rin sa semis? Nothing absolutely wrong about loke pooling, but nothing is absolutely right about it. I still also stand by sa pinagusapan na sa ranbats we're still double elims, 2/3 match, pure random. Compromised suggestion ko is if mababa ang head count, we use that. We can also try out the 4pool, with the loke mod, sa tourney on august. Pedeng imeasure yung time na kelangan through math, ang kelangan natin makita is if it will be received well by the entire community. Besides, if Daigo and Tokido fight sa pinaka unang round ng EVO, I WILL JUST LAUGH MY ASS OFF. 1/200+ chances lol. That's life. TENTACLES~~~ @Matt i like that idea if iimplement nga siya sa location-basing. If gagamit tayo ng 4 pool, i think kahit di siya evened out pede parin. 9-8-8-8, pede =D Now if its about location basing, then chances are yeah, magkikita nga kayo ng friend mow. Kelangan naka avg ang team points para lahat ng tao gumagawa. Is this the dawn of [EHADA]Tomogawa and [DTr] Lolokoa naming conventions? hahahaha. Uy kelangan isa lang "allegiance" mo ha hahaha. Do we do this strictly by location or through association? Na excite ako sa points. Dude, you said it. Di na lang ako nagsalita dahil we don't have that much rules yet on intentional forfeits and intentionally underperforming during tourneys. Thats the type of community they are lol. If mag tourney tayo uli for em, i guess we just have to make it league type or whatnot para masakit talaga penalties. (RED CARD NA YAN) @Raf Lol I think CNN is also biased after how they've shown the Israel-Palestine conflict IN FAVOR of Israel when documentaries show that Israel isn't really the underdog. BBC parin ako bro, tea-sippin broadcast channel. Game of throoooooones! @Dix May rule kaming pinagusapan na bawal sumali yung may saturday class tapos malapit na mag graduate, lalo na pag itong taong to ay mahilig magsabing pupunta pero di siya sisipot heheheheh. Dito kasi serious planning talk usually e. If sa FB gawin yan, "too many captains manning the boat" ang mangyayari. AH3x1080=ASTRAL! HAKUMEN KELANGAN MAKAPASOK !!!

Yeah pagusapan nalang pagnagka casuals, pero kelangan mapagusapan na whenever we can at pag avail lahat. TAGER?! Sino yan at sino sino mga kinalaban nyan O_O 360xAH3

We never discussed anything about location placements when we met up sa starbucks diba? I outlined the entire proceedings of the ranbats that day, format is still the same. Everyone said yes. I'm not telling you what to do, I'm restating facts lang. Suggestion ko if a lot of people want to push through with this is to do it pag onti lang ang mga tao AH3

@chase ang tanung ano ang prize/penalty? =D @allan even tentacles? Diba pinagusapan na natin sa na ranbats random double elims like always? I mean sa mga tourneys that really happens talaga. You can't just change it just because you have the chance na magkikita kayo. Ganito, pag 24 or less lang umattend super payag ako sa location mod. Pag 1/24 (4.1%) mababa parin ang chance na makakalaban mo kapit bahay mo sa simula parin naman e. Depending on the number of players sige. and AH3 AH3 AH3 AH3 AH3 AH3 AH3 AH3 AH3 AH3 AH3 AH3 AH3 AH3

Oo kasalanan ni life yan! Pede rin di na AH3, Mortal Kombat 9? Ang MvC3 kasi di pedeng single match hahaha, if ever single elims, double or triple match. Basta yung sa pools kelangan pa pagusapan yan. As for Ranbats bracketting, it will still be purely random. No location basing, no skill basing, no gender basing, and no tentacle seeding. Talangang /B/ @Dix uy o nagyaya, pupunta ka ba? Yung sa august na parang NSB (the single match, double elims format), sino gusto makakita ng Dix vs Insan first to 10 grudge match? Feel ko mataas pa yung sodium levels ng isa dyan after nung team battle. Tsubaki: *charges for unblockable* Makoto: *3C-> FRENCH FRIES!* Rules: 2 rounds per match, Anyone can change characters at any time after a match.

Loke wars. Team battle nalang amf! @gelo patanong naman kung saan sa SG makakabili ng Roxio, a friend will go there kasi. Baka makadaan kasi siya. @bert dude if first match mo training buddy mo, thats life. If all 5 andun sa isang pool, meaning 2/5 lang makakapunta sa next leg, then tough luck. What are the chances of that happening? Now the thing is its IMPOSSIBLE to completely eliminate that chance especially if 4 pool tapos 5 kayong magka spar. That only applies to just one group of friends,what about other groups pa? Thats life sa bracketting. Besides di naman tuwing tourney kalaban mo yung kalaro mo kahapon diba? @tournament concept sa august after ranbats, mag single match, double elims tourney tayo. 70pesos lang entrance fee per game (BB, AH3 and one more). Winner take all. Yay or nay? @unrelated matter Nendoroid Totori Review is up! Mark your nendo is with Pete

@Live action la blue girl 2 episodes lang yun diba? @gelo if simulation lang to measure time, you can do that mathematically. If its to make people understand the flow, then go ahead =D @Bert TENTACLES!!! ~~~~~ The chance of playing against your neighborhood buddy is part of the tournament experience. Sa start naman you have 1/31 (3.2%) chance of playing against your usual playmate. If you multiply that with four tournaments thats still 3.2%. Sooner or later, you will end up playing against your neighbor. If you lose may loser's bracket. Yes pede i sort out per location pag 4pool. Its easier to sort out with that format, pero I highly discourage that. The chances of you ending up on the same pool as your neighborhood buddy is still 3.2%. If matalo ka, make sure na nasa loser's finals ka para mag proceed ka sa loser's bracket ng quarter finals. Obviously, as the number of players dwindle, the chances of meeting your buddy in the winner's or loser's bracket increases. We can't 'fix' the brackets or the pools for people who just doesn't want to see his neighbors playing with him, especially if you have 5 usual playtime buddies na sasali sa 32 man tourney.

Kahit i double elims mo yung pool lalabas na pareho parin yung time needed with the regular double elims. As long as best out of three parin =D There is no problem with the regular double elims format we are doing, the 4pool just promises 1.) na mas organized yung takbo ng match, especially when we hit that 64-man match 2.) players can see how long they'll have to wait until their pool is up. Its for the sake lang of organizing stuff, and nothing to lose with trying it out. Ranbats will still be double elims format, pero if 4pool format is actually better and everyone likes it and there are no perceived flaws in it, then we move to that. I'm game with single elims, single chara =D Pede rin Double elims, single match, single chara. XD

If the entire 4pool will use brackets like EVO, amount of time will be the same, just more organized. Round robin format will drag on depending on the number of players per pool or the number of pools itself. Ideal pool is 4 players per pool, and its only 4 pools. Amount of time needed for this is almost the same as a double elim bracket with 16 players. Regardless if sets are single matches or best of three. Going beyond that means tataas yung amount of time needed, kaya double elims nalang per pool naisip namin. I-tetest out pa kinks nito =D

updated IAD site with P2D's indestructible: http://iairdash.com/?p=1146 @Pool format It's prolly going to be a 4-pool system, tapos distributed yung numbers evenly among the 4 pools. Double elim type. Finalists of loser's and winner's bracket will go on to the next leg of elimination. So whats the difference of this 4-pool format from the normal double elims? Its easier to schedule matches between players since it starts off with pools instead of big batches. Its more organized in a way. We'll have to find time testing this new format since we might use this for ranbats if it will contribute to the flow of the event. 4 pool (or otherwise known as the EVO format) is the easy to implement XD @Bert Bracketting is still purely random. If you end up with a dtier vs dtier, then thats just how the ball rolls. The best format to play against someone you don't know much is a team battle (with location vs location if you want it THAT BAD). That or casuals. I think i heard that issue from someone (who shall remain anonymous) in the mvc3 tournament (ozinefest) who complained that he had to fight against 2 other people from his location and accused us of rigging the brackets. In the next mvc3 tourney (cash and carry), he was up against another person from the location he played, but he decided to drop the match (as in forfeit). Thankfully di siya tiga BB community XD @4pool format and location The 4 pool format CAN POTENTIALLY distribute people across different pools to avoid playing against one another from the early sets, pero you guys will face off parin sa quarter or semis. Of course this format will suck ass if some wtfuckery chance happened and everyone in the d-tier or any location ends up in one pool (2 representatives per pool amp). EVO Season moments check it out =D

Corrected the dates, nag autopilot daliri ko HAHAHAH. Thanks for the heads up. Will create a "pool system" tournament just for kicks to test it out. Matt and I will get back to you guys bout this since Matt has been dying to go with this format for almost a year XD. In case people are wondering how the pool system works, you can visit the EVO website In case anyone wants to know the sched in EVO (since they stream the matches, though not sure bout semi finals and quarter finals), click this link Anniversary of BBPH is on August if i'm not mistaken, details of celebration to follow (if meron hohoho) BTW, There are two holidays in August: National Heroes Day [AUG 29 MONDAY] and Eid Ul Fitr [AUG 31 WEDNESDAY]. Treatment of the holidays will be announced. Once they've been announced, hagis tayo ng event or something =D P2D's INDESTRUCTIBLE (SSF4AE national tourney) is on August 20 btw =P In case anyone is interested in joining a photocontest that involves cellphone cameras and figures [nendoroids], check this site and... GDI STGCC!!! BAKIT ANDUN SI KIPI?! D=

For those who aren' looking at IAD please see below... July schedule: July 16 - Arcana Hearts 3 tourney July 23 - Marvel vs Capcom 3 tourney July 30 - Blazblue CS2 ranbats *edited: accidentally placed 31* 25 MORE DAYS TO GO!!!

So much rage "You can kill somebody by pressing all three buttons accidentally with wolverine" hahaha truth though

@riel thats only applicable palang to QR-heavy (and supporteed) countries like Japan. Pagdito maraming magtataka pa hahaha N.Korea being so PRO vs US

Yeah the hitbox might provide something new, if only there was a way to switch it from left side to right side (using the arrow buttons instead of the w-a-s-d). thanks sa pag try riel, currently finding ways to make the QR code "graphical"

maybe i shouldve made it "american scrub" to make it distinct. XD Oh yeah, if anyone has a QR code reader can you please test this out: QR CODE

Stickless Controller that aint pad - "The hitbox" It might be a better "stick" for those who play using their PC keyboard and it might open up easier setups that are otherwise hard to do on stick and pad (easier 720?). As for legitimacy of use for tourneys in the future, I'm totally ok with this, unless a one button combo/super shortcut comes out (but then again maybe that could be disabled). Interesting read for those curious to know what tourneys are like from a scrub's perspective (yun yung title, kaya scrub)

@mark at allan salamat sa Koihime musou at Demonbane hahaha. ENjoy amf

Yeah i know, AH3 and BB, pero i'm really wondering how people can cope with playing different games without playing for more than once a week. Lol was waiting for Makoto to go Dark Phoenix at some point, i think nahalata rin ni bert nung sinabi niyang puno pa metro ko hahaha. Di ako si DACIDBRO shet XD. Feel ko kelangan lang yan idaan sa twice or thrice a week na laro para masanay agad hahaha @poster Dapat may "maglalaro si Gelo sa 2P side", "hindi magdrop ng combos si Ry" at "Magiging malaya parin si Chase" Kaya pala sawi ka kay seitokaichou

Pls refrain from posting NSFW pics (or links that spam or dont spam) sa dloop ^^ Shet pag nag marvel ako sa 23 laspag nanaman laro ko sa BB nyan hahaha. I wonder how people manage to play 2-3 games and still stay good with them (aside from playing everyday or thrice a week hahaha)

Promo vid: like nung napagusapan sa Shang, its going to be a match vid or a match moment that'll serve as our hype video. Pero in case meron pang ibang suggestions feel free to suggest Point and Rules: Same Banana. Unless you guys want a "single-match, double elims" or just a "Main only" rule instead of the "main-sub". Point system still the same. Prize and Entrance fee: Lets keep it at P150 (People can save like P5 a day from Jul1 to Jul30 and may entrance fee na sila). 70/30/Salt ang prizes Articles: OH LOL, baka over the weekend oTL We have to fix the layout of the site rin Michi BDay: If its a bday then uunahin ko yun. Your call how you want it Allan: Pa burn ng mga matches ko at Dtier pls, pag aralan ko lang. Thanks
