reminder, this is the quick reference of brackets/stream location http://www.dustloop.com/forums/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=470&day=2013-1-4 whats to be on stream? since bananakun is playing while streaming it will be his matches winners semis/finals and final matches, starting when i feel it is appropriate time wise, so usually losers semis/finals then GF connect to the irc if you have questions ^^ check in has started, tourney starts shortly - tune in to the stream ^^

getting on now to test connections. you have about 80 minutes fucking why did it take 2h30m to change a single tire ><<<

okay guys heres the game plan -i have to get my tire fixed at 3pm est, so i should be back by 5pm est hopefully -when i get back, ill will be on XBL persona (available for connection verification purposes) until 7:00pm est -after this point, i need to unplug my xbox and get on the computer to start getting things set up for tonight (check in and brackets and such) -as such, check in will start around 7pm est as per usual, tourney will start 730pm est UNLESS SOMEONE SAYS THEY NEED MORE TIME (no one has yet, so expect 730pm est) -if you have not been verified by the time i start check in, you may be out of luck. i will see if someone i can trust can test your connection, but at that point i will not be able to -any questions? ask ask - msg me on xbox before 7pm, come get me in the irc chat after 7pm. see everyone tonight ^^ i should have a switch for my internet so i can have both connected at same time, hopefully this is just for this weeks ranbat. tl:dr - get on xbox and play me BEFORE 7pm est tonight or you may be S.O.L. if you need to be verified.

maybe. i really wanna be there but its a maybe for now.

not this week, since it would prob be very close to ending/done by that point but if you can make it before it starts for some reason ^^ - cant do late entries, sorry!

i would not mind you doing it banana if anyone else wants to, let me know sometime today, ill link them both/all in the OP and the calender just give me your info so i can update things ^^

updated xblade and secret high tier, you need to verify your connection with me ill be on early in the evening tomorrow, well before the ranbat starts READ THE OP, IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, ASK THEM ^^ see you all tomorrow ! ^^ also, welcome back 17 ^^ these guys might not remember but i do, cant wait to see it

2013: year of the old men, broke niggas, and dead games? once things get more settled with seans house, i can prob start hosting again. not till at least feb, but ill post up way ahead of time. its right around where i was, so its about the same travel time for all you guys till then, i live on xbl. -_-

if you can make it, awesome, if you cant i dont hold it against you its only if you enter and leave mid way thru ill get mad about it make the events you can. its bi weekly, so figure out what works best for you ^^

updated good luck in your thing shin ^^ hope to see you sometime! to clarify, you dont need to ask to join, just post your info and if your connection is really far away, we might need to verify the connection - sign ups are open until the tourney starts friday night ^^

im usually not in the gg netplay hunting matches since few people play and their not-a-lobby system is ass (cant train while i wait? zzzz) but I LOVE THIS GAME AND WILL PLAY MOST ANY TIME I AM ONLINE XBL GT: mldc jouka Characters (in order of skill with them): HOS > Robo > Sol > Chipp > everyone else Location: New jersey with good internet im usually on halo or BB or something, but ill say again that i will play GG over most anything! if im not running a netplay ranbat for p4 or bb, im in there. just msg me! i got a mic if you wanna party chat, i can also skype if you wanna do that hope to see more people in the gg netplay world ^^

i hate everything. im leaving for a character with normal general chat. (j/k, too fun here)

updated never too late ^^ its only too late once it starts lol these will be bi-weekly on fridays, so you can plan for that if it makes things easier. they might rarely switch to sat, but im trying to keep it on friday for now

updated no worries shin, this is bi-weekly. make what you can ^^ *** need to get approved connection-wise? ill be on tonight 8pm est until 11pm est (at a minimum) to practice games. just msg me on xbl and we can set something up ^^ *** you can verify right before the tourney starts on friday, but if its convenient for you to do it early, tonight is a good chance !

ill prob still be on then, like i said just add me and msg me ^^

updated, yes06kin, you need to be verified. ** if you need to be verified, i will be on tomorrow (1/1/13) night playing netplay in various games. just msg me and we can verify real quick **

reminder this friday 1/4/13 http://www.dustloop.com/forums/showthread.php?15563-P4A-Ranbats-Season-2-%28XBL%29-1-1-4-2013&p=1438040#post1438040 season 2 of the ranbats starts ^^

updated sin, we have a new jersey thread in the match finder, see if someone is local to you and try to play offline too !

updated ill put you in needs to be verified if you are worried about your connection quality ^^

yea i hear ya just trying to learn the game for the n'th time, and im watching vids for once... and its like..... sigh. i wanna see some inspiring stuff. izayoi and nu have that "YO DAMN" shit going for them already.... but i enjoy plat more, so was hoping for something sick. a neat overdrive combo, some new midscreen path, something. i dunno. old man being grumps is all haha

watching cp vids.... sigh is it just me or is there: 1: no big fun discoveries STILL in bbcp plat tech 2: everyone trading damage for oki is ridiculous amounts (like trading over 1k for a bubble) 3: everyone still dropping tons of things/adding tons of fluff to combos whats going on? ragna and noel combos now look awesome, nu is getting interesting stuff every video, and platinum is almost devolving since the week 1 tech http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOLQ8u-yXLk&t=9m56s - like this was okay, but only seeing 3.8k off a blocked hotenjin punish? granted it was meterless, but also he had meter to add and was near corner.... i just feel like it coulda been better. and thats how a lot of the vids make me feel. "that wasnt bad, but coulda been so much more probably" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhWMOjhhZ58&t=6m32s - first air combo into hammer that has a followup i have seen. thats cool at least. (new to me, sorry if you guys already knew lol) i dont know ~_~

You should advertise better if you even admit you havent done it well, but its a far drive for me and this time of year i cant spend a ton of money freely. A few others of us are probably in the same boat. Another time maybe, but its just not in the cards at the moment for me.

plat pics still make me feel weird. hope everyone had a good holiday. quick cse question: 5b 5c 3c 22c RC (?) whats better to do: 6C into whatever, or dash 2C into bubble into whatever? I cant make up my mind figure i would ask you guys what you normally do

reminder! this is in one week (count em 7 days) http://www.dustloop.com/forums/showthread.php?15563-P4A-Ranbats-Season-2-%28XBL%29-1-1-4-2013 if you need to be verified, get in touch with me or add me on XBL and just msg me when you see me on
