I'll bring my PS2 and my joystick just in case. I'll bring Accent Core in case anyone wants to try that. Should I bring my Alpha Anthologies and (ugh) CvS2? I don't have MvC2 and my PS2 is (STILL!) not modded.

Wait: How many people are coming to this and who is challenging who now? I'm confused.

rb:

If it's Q vs. Everyone, what we need is a pecking order. We used to do this when I was back in college: If someone new wanted to challenge us, he had to face the established players in a certain order. He would start at whoever was the weakest at a particular game, and he would only be able to progress to the stronger players if he managed to beat the weaker ones first. The exact order used to differ from game to game (though naturally, I was either at the top or second to the top for every game

) but the process was the same.

So by all means rb, you face Q first.

rb · « **Reply #144 on:** January 15, 2008, 05:43:02 PM »

so he faces you in cvs2 first huh

but i agree, an order would be good.

basically i'm down for anything but i'll be focusing on Q, Accent core and well Imperial in cvs2.

Q · « **Reply #145 on:** January 15, 2008, 07:20:52 PM »

Sounds fine to me. I'll consider it an old-fashioned Megaman Gauntlet. My weakest game mentioned so far is CvS2, then MvC2, then Alpha 3. If there's more, I'll see when I get there I guess.

New Era Outlaw · « **Reply #146 on:** January 15, 2008, 09:14:42 PM »

The converse is somewhat true for me.
Limited in SFA3, fairly okay in CvS2, a-okay in MvC2.

So...who's going to bring the hot Asian supermodels?
Can't have a sweat of epic proportions without the hot Asian supermodels...

rb · « **Reply #147 on:** January 15, 2008, 09:42:35 PM »

hmm for me its

A3 - limited
VS - limited
MVC2 - okayish
CVS2 - okayish
KOF98 - okayish
GGXXAC - OK (probably my best game this time around as for some reason no matter how long i stay away from the game Eddie just seems to come natural to me :S,although my unblockables aren't perfect)

Ultima · « **Reply #148 on:** January 15, 2008, 09:52:05 PM »

Well, if it's something formal, we should decide on stuff before hand, like which games, no. of games to play per person, how many people actually competing (e.g. I don't see Imperial playing MvC2), etc. It might help things run more smoothly if it's going to be 3 or 4 of us vs. Q in 3+ games.

These are just some recommendations. Feel free to add/subtract/ignore/flame:

- I recommend we go with CvS2, MvC2, SFA3. Q's the challenger, so we'll let him go with his strongest game last.

- Best 3 out of 5 games per person (1 game = 1 match in CvS2/MvC2, 2/3 rounds in SFA3, etc.). We can decide if it's true gauntlet fashion - If Q doesn't beat the first person in the queue, he doesn't go any further - or if we'll all play him regardless. Might depend on how many people are there in total. If time is good, we could try for 4 out of 7. Or make it true tournament style and do 2/3 for the first and second matches, 3/5 for the third, and 4/7 for the last.

- Pecking order per game (assuming NEO, me, rb and Imperial are present):

CvS2: NEO, me, rb, Imperial
MvC2: rb/NEO, me (I doubt Imperial would want to play)
SFA3: NEO/rb, Imperial, me

Yeah, I assuming me > you guys at A3. Old fashioned arrogance. I could be completely wrong though, so don't worry about it. Nothing is set in stone.

rb and Neo can flip a coin for who goes first MvC2. I think I should got last in this game at least. I'm telling you from now I'm only going to bother playing if he manages to get past the two of you.

If time is running out or if we start late, we can reduce it to 3 people per game. I volunteer to drop out of CvS2. Though as I said, if he doesn't get past NEO/rb in MvC2, I'm not facing him.

No hot asian supermodels for me, thanks. Don't wanna be tempted.

The more I look at this thread, is the less likely I see myself playing Q. Seriously speaking, if cvs2 is your weakest game then don't even bother. I doubt I'll be touching the A3 so you fellas knock yourselves out. I wonder if you're any good at 3s. I do think you said you played sf3.
And there's apparently no love for AE. It's the closest thing we got to hyper on console.

Just to refresh my hazy memory;

Saturday is at the mall and Sunday is a Java right?

rb · « **Reply #150 on:** January 15, 2008, 11:14:04 PM »

correct @ sunday at least...

Q · « **Reply #151 on:** January 15, 2008, 11:42:29 PM »

Cool. SF3's good too. I prefer 2I but whatever's there. I've had enough exposure in 3S to know who and what I want so I'll have some sort of battle plan.

As far as the order goes, whatever you have in mind. I've sen times when I beat a guy, some guy beats me, then my defeated foe beats that guy so I have little faith in establishing that sort of system. Still, I'm good either way. I'm just glad for the chance to pit my strength against yours. The change from arcade to console should pose little/no problem. I just have to shake off some console rust and I'll be fine.

Me vs Some of the country's best... That's where my mind is right now. All else is just details.

Imperial:

Hey you know I play HSF (AE). They have it in St. James now! The Colsort Mall players of old are pretty good at it.

New Era Outlaw · « **Reply #153 on:** January 16, 2008, 04:49:51 PM »

They should be. Alongside Marvel vs. Capcom 1 and Third Strike (which eventually got stolen), that was one of the most played titles down there.

Q · « **Reply #154 on:** January 16, 2008, 05:08:29 PM »

Colsort had 3rd Strike? I remember SF3 and SF3: 2nd Impact but 3rd Strike? Sorry I missed it. I went there mainly for The Last Blade 1/2, SamSho IV, MvC and Blazing Star.

Ultima · « **Reply #155 on:** January 16, 2008, 07:13:52 PM »

INdeed, Colsort had 3S. But not for very long, for as NEO pointed out, some niggers stole it. If I remember correctly they ripped it right out of the cabinet. It was only there for... what, a month? Two months? Bah. >:|

NEO:

A correction: Colsort played Super Turbo, not HSF. HSF wasn't out when Colsort was still around. Though I suppose it's close enough: For the most part, the only good characters are from ST and a few from CE and HF.

Where is the MVC1 Sweat Thread!!!!???

WTF man.....Getting back to the real topic!!! lol when are we doing this again with full participation...?

rb · « **Reply #157 on:** January 16, 2008, 07:39:06 PM »

lol it was only you and neo in the thread anyway, might as well change this thread title to the All Purpose Arcade thread.

Ultima · « **Reply #158 on:** January 17, 2008, 08:45:20 AM »

Thread derailed. MISSHUN COMPRETE.

Tentatively, aren't NEO and I, at the very least, still supposed to be heading for Trincity this Sunday for 1:00 PM to hang for a few hours before going down to Java to play Q? I'm not sure any more. :|

EDIT:

I think something's going down on Saturday as well, but I won't be able to participate in that.

Ultima · « **Reply #159 on:** January 18, 2008, 06:09:52 PM »

Posted this in the other thread, since I'm not sure which is for what any more. Anyway, my wife just reminded me that we're going to Chinese Association this Sunday for Chinese New Year. I won't be going to Trinicity definitely, and it's doubtful I'll be able to make it to Java cause I have things to do in the evening.
