Nah, there has to be something else going on, unless I've been very mistaken for a very long time there's no mechanic that ties damage to height. Do both versions again and make sure the number of hits in each combo is the same. Make sure you are actually starting with S every time, if you start the combo with 2.k it's probably going to do less due to proration. I'd try and test stuff out for yah but my japanese ps2 is broken.

hmm interesting, I wonder if the emial it to you immediately or not(or at least reasonably immediately). I may check it out then.

anyway to get this conveniently? I'd love to try it out, but don't feel like ordering a card from japan and configuring a Japanese account etc...

It woulda been nice to have 80ish people like the one 2 years ago(even though it was a side tourney then too). 39 people is still alright though, I look forward to the next tourney!

Ask her how much she likes Baiken .

Yes, but it was clearly SOMETHING, it could have been a money match or something, but it clearly wasn't a random casual, A simple 'last round' would have sufficed to get us out of there.

My only problem with the TV thing is that it was clearly something important, there was a ton of people watching it and like 3 people obviously recording, he could have waited 30 seconds. If it was just a couple dudes playing with a few spectators I would have understood, but it was clearly something important. edit: yes i understand it was a misunderstanding on both sides, and yes I know evo is not out to get us. I just thin it was poorly handled from their end.

I posted on the forums that I was willing to help and offered at evo to help in any way, all I ended up doing was watching vet's stuff on Saturday morning!

these are for gear, I think BB is a little bit earlier on both counts.

I was wondering what time sign ups would end and tournaments would start(projected obviously). I'm definitely coming but I have to do something on friday and I'd like to schedule it so that I can easily go to the gear singles tournament. Also Veteru mentioned you guys might still need people to help run the tournament, I would be more than happy to help run teams(no possible conflict), and I would be happy to help run singles(but there's a possible conflict there). Feel free to answer here, or PM me with more information. I will be able to call/post Thursday afternoonish whether I will be able to help with singles or not. Look forward to seeing you all at evo!

I wish i could bring suff, but my japanese ps2 is busted and the copy of gear I own is japan core.

hmm sounds like there was more gear than I expected there would be! I ended up getting sick over this weekend, so it's probably good I didn't go anyways.

he is known as robo alex because I am alex, and he always plays robot versions of other characters, robo ky and hakumen(spoilers!!: Robo jin).

just call him robo-alex.

i'm pretty sure SCII originally referred to starcraft 2 as much of the washington scene is pretty adicted to that game.

I believe the idea was to make it a FB exactly as is, so it wouldn't do any more damage.

I personally have no probelm with forward EXE EXCEPT that if you trade with it it basically gives testament a free blue roman. It either needs to come out slower or it need to disappear on hit.

to be fair the things he mentioned being nerfed are fairly legit. Forward EXE beast is IMO the best move in the game, it's basically an auto FRC if someone trades with it and leads to tons of damage, it's hella fast and lets you pick up combo's, and it's like +a billion on block when FRC'd and can cover his mix up. Gravedigger is also fairly retarded, it's good damage and gives him a boat load of meter and he can get it off of tons of his stuff, he can also end it in super and start setting up the giant tree's and really start controlling the match. Baikens ouran counter, while entirely baitable, is super amazing just by existing, you don't even have to use it half the time, because if they DO bait ouran they can't bait any of your other counters/lose pressure anyways. I don't know about his fix to eddie, but I think we all agree SOMETHING has to be fixed about eddie. As for ABA, she can stay the way she is, good ABA's manage their moroha meter well, if you're getting that low you need to pack/combo out. Overall ABA is pretty balanced, she has good strengths and not overpowering weaknesses. There's not a single tier list that puts her as bad, she's always either listed as solid to good.

You have to shout 'there can be only one!!' at the end of the match to take his mod powers.

the problem is most of the top players in the US have at least a few characters that they have NO solid competition in so we CAN'T know how all the matchups work, and we certainly can't figure them all out in a couple day event at EVO. Additionally to truly get the matchups right we'd need multiple high tier players for each character, we're lucky to have one. I know even for my own character I can't say more than bad, evenish, good, I couldn't even come close to putting numbers on those.

If I end up going on the trip I can drive my car down.

It was indeed wuku, he lost to jam because no one plays jam in the northwest.

I've heard arguments for robo ky too, though I disagree, I think it's really just Jam and Pot, even slayer's not THAT bad.

wow, slayer that low? That C tier is HUGE. Baiken below sol/ky/chip? That list is pretty crazy, not sure how I feel about it.

i'm so ashamed of both of you, holding the railing like that!
