So I'm going to try again to maintain an event thread for Caliburst here on dustloop.

Saturday, 2017 June 3, 2pm - California Burst (First Saturdays of the month) 4: Thought This Would Be Easier Summarized venue policies: it is an office, not a store. you are guests, not customers. guests-of-guests welcome. if you're reading this to attend, you're ok. venue fee $7 there exists an invitation-only closed Facebook group for the venue; ask about it in person. Expected game list: XRDR(ps4): Guilty Gear Xrd Revelator BBCF(ps4): BlazBlue Centralfiction ACPR(ps3): Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus R CVS2(ps2,arc): Capcom vs SNK 2 Historical Perspective: Dec 5, 2015

Evo 2015 is over and done. Game list is on inertia. Taking suggestions for changes. (personally, I want to bring back GG +R)

Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bdfXHrWj2jU re: oki 2K; on wakeup, the opponent has 2(?) frames of invulnerable Reversal allowing them to throw without being hit (overlapping with 10(?) frames of throw invulnerable, therefore no oki OHK). In return, a whiffed throw attempt comes out as 5H/6H for CH punish. Throws whiff against airborne attacks (e.g. 6K) and those out of throw range (e.g. far 2K). Different characters have different throw ranges.

As a fair caution, other major events are happening out of state, so I expect turnout for Apr 4 to be rather light. CaliBurst will still happen, even if it comes down to sitting around eating popcorn while watching NCR stream.

@Tari, that's what I would like, yes. @ehuangsan, pick a time slot for it, I'll see about juggling the lineup.

Nonetheless, I will still wield the DQing Stick of Unnecessary Tournament Delay if excessive looping results in disrupting the flow of the event (i.e. holding up brackets because we're all waiting for mashy C 'til timeout).
