Ichipoo

Gonna sit this out guys, sorry. Hopefully I'll see you guys at Saltmines if I can go though.

So who's going tonight? It's a solid maybe for me.

Still waiting on Mariah.

bellreisa told me that playing gay against Liz works wonders, which was evident in our matches with each other about a month ago. Basically you'll want to keep Liz out because she can really hurt you when she gets in, especially with those nasty resets that she has. Lots and lots of well aimed bullets was Liz's bane in those matches. Just be aware that if she does happen to block bullets, that you be unpredictable with when you cancel them since having Liz block the 5th shot means eating a fullscreen Maziodyne. Also, R-Action > 6X worked wonders in the gaps of her 5C strings, as it blasts Liz away and also takes away a Persona stock if she's being obvious with Thanatos.

I REALLY wished something among those lines was posted on the opening post of the Saltmines thread on SRK for those not familiar with the area. Would've saved me at least 10 minutes of frantically looking for a "safe" spot to park on my first trip there and also I wouldn't have the thought "Am I going to get a ticket?" in the back of my head the duration I'm there on my first and second times there. Also I'm gonna try to finish any homework tonight and tomorrow so I can free up my schedule for tomorrow, if I'm able to go, I hope to see some new people...... otherwise I wouldn't mind playing countless matches with Kevin again though.

Ouch, can't make it anyway as I have a wedding to go to but thanks for the heads up.

Hmm, not sure if I'm free yet. Anyway who's hosting this Friday? Whether it's Kevin's or Spidey's place, I don't mind.

Played some offline Kanjis last night and did better than I thought I would, here's some of my thoughts. You'll definitely want to play gay by laying traps all over the place both ground and air but don't back yourself into the corner because you still want to control more space than Kanji. If they get hit with bullets, run up to Kanji and stop wherever you think is safe to place a trap in order to establish your territory. Every time they use Zio, be prepared to block, in the air is probably best. If it disarms traps, lay more traps. If Zio whiffs, whip out your gun to break a Persona card. Also if you crouch his airgrab, be sure you punish right away either with 5/2A because if you're just a frame or two slow, Kanji's F-Action will eat your failed attempt to punish. And be prepared for a long match as you'll be doing this over and over again as you should. I personally feel that this matchup is a test of both players' patience.

GGs at Saltmines guys. Did better than I thought I would, although I'm still free against Kevin's Mitsuru and Chie in general though.

We usually have meetups on Fridays, right now we usually go to shtkn's house who lives in Clairemont but sometimes Spidey (Oceanside) hosts too from time to time if people who live up north like Temecula, Irvine or LA show interest in driving down south. Jigoku_Roa has also hosted us twice as well. Anyway they'll usually post here if they're able to host or not. There's also people playing P4A at San Diego Saltmines which takes place in Pangea Bakery every Monday night. If you can bring a setup for the game, that'd be awesome. http://shoryuken.com/forum/index.php?threads/san-diego-saltmines-mira-mesa-kearny-mesa-casuals.165396/

It's probably because we're not gdlk like the Japanese Naotos but is there anything we can do against Chie and SLab?

Naoto's should mash j.A more...... just sayin'

Well you certainly don't want to park at my house since I'm probably the one who lives the deepest down south in San Diego. Also is anybody going to Saltmines tonight? I'm debating whether to go or not since there's also a Charger game tonight that I'd like to watch. Also how many setups does P4A still get?

So I'm interested in going to Sanoshi's place for meetups to play P4 one of these days, do you guys post here if there's going to be one soon or on a social media site like Facebook?

Just dropped off my friend and at my relative's place to pick up my folks. Thanks for hosting again Kevin. Just curious but what do you guys think about having meetups on Saturday instead of Friday, although that probably means that people up north wouldn't want to come down since there's simultaneous gatherings in LA.

I'll probably be there around 4. Is anybody from Irvine or LA other than Wallice showing up? Congrats on the job btw though.

Andy, do you want me to give the guys a ride?

3pm tomorrow sounds good for me, I'll most likely be able to go.

When was that? Was it during the same weekend of Povertfest @ bell's house? Anyway, would it inconvenience anybody if we had a gathering tomorrow at Kevin's place assuming he's available? I don't think I can make it tonight... although it is pretty selfish of me to ask if we can all go tomorrow instead of tonight. #scumbagIchi

So any word on if Spidey is still hosting tomorrow?

Ooh ooh! I wouldn't mind driving to Spidey's place this Friday if I have time.

Anime's out already? ASL;DKFJA;LSKDFJ;ALKSDJ
