...@ chipp

why does everyone who learns guilty gear down here pick Sol or Chipp first :(

@ Q

I dunno how good GGX is nowadays for learning GGXX-AC. I tried X recently and was like....wheres the dust button.  X may be good to learn the movement but try to get some more exposure to the newer ones (X2/XX upward).

I'd love to compile a list of players and their main characters in AC. Here's what I remember.

Sol - Imperial
Potemkin - Ultima, Boxy
Eddie -  myself, Redeyes (but redeyes eddie not hard, YUH HEAR MEH BOY YUH EDDIE NOT HARD)
Chipp - Redeyes
Slayer - myself, Shezi
Johnny - Imperial
Millia - Incog
Testament - Fenrir
Bridget - Orochi
Faust - Janus
Order Sol - Charles, Analyst
May - Chrono X , Orochi ( EFF MAY)
Axl - Imperial, Analyst

thats all I can remember atm.

Who's down for a sweat sometime next saturday ( ie after carnival)

Ultima:  I'm pretty sure I said I wasn't prepared for the trip on ANY level.  It wasn't about my skill level at the time.  Several factors were to be considered as well.  Time off from work being the first.  I also had to weigh my financial obligations.  I had to consider my training (and no I'm still not even talking about video games yet).  Hell man, even you wouldn't just pick up and tell Mrs. Ultima (forgive me) "I'm going to japan for a few weeks to play video games...later"  The possibility had me placing gaming as the last thing on my mind as even I sought some worthwhile endeavours outside of the digital battlefield.

And yes I was being extreme about some of those circumstances for meter control but what can I say.  I'm speaking for myself though when I say that when I play vs Eddie in AC, I rushdown in order to prevent Eddie from getting meter.  The worst experience you'd have is fighting a fully stocked Eddie.  Hell, he's even a pain in the ass with 25% man.

The SS3 trick as I remember it required you to push your enemy into the bomb so that the explosion and F F+C attack connect at the same time.  I haven't confirmed it with any character besides Bust Galford though but everytime I got the situation to pop up in combat, subsequent hits to my opponent would not build meter like they should.  A far fetched situation perhaps but hey, shit happens.

Yea RB, I think I can make another outing for the year.  As always, I don't want to guarantee I'll be there so far ahead into the future.  Life sucks like that right about now.
Consciousness yearn to kill

Zealous I burn the drill
Forging, I mould the skill.

What about a GATT sponsored expeditions? Has that ever been a possibility? Hell, if you're going to represent, why not get help?

*Remember: If my questions sound a wee bit naive, I'm new here.*

As far as I know ( and I may be wrong) GATT only sponsored trips to the Gigagames in Guadeloupe for Tekken 5 some years back (2004 I think)

Things like VXG everyone else fronted their own money. My trip set me back about 8gs TT

Okay then... Maybe it's time for things to change. Had it been anywhere else, not only would the trip have been sponsored, sponsors would've been climbing the walls... Just for representing the country. In Trinidad, the heads wait until you make it on your own to ride the wave of your success and then it's suddenly a "national" achievement.

Anyway, right now I'm going through a "spaghetti western" phase so I'll just come up with some radical shit. I'll think of something when I'm a bit more rational.

Imperial:

Well, that makes more sense then. For a minute there I thought you were taking Nerd-ISM to unprecedented heights. Cause even my hardcore geek friends have been to Japan (mainly to buy crap and gawk at women; playing games was a bonus). Me, never got the chance. Way too broke. :D

BTW, I pretty much told the wife last December "I'm off to Boston to see friends and play games, see yah!". Okay, not quite. I invited her to come along, but she declined, cause we both knew she would be hideously bored watching a bunch of geeks playing games for 3 days straight ;). I think she's want to go to Japan though. :p

And yeah, I think your examples about controlling opponent's meter were bogus. I can understand wanting to rush down Eddie to stop him from building meter, but the thing is, you want to rush down Eddie anyway. It's not just about his meter building; it's also about giving him room to set stuff up. You're really just trying to kill him before he gets to be an even bigger threat that he already is; in this scenario, "controlling his super meter" is an indirect consequence of your primary goal.

Also, that glitch sounds a) highly suspect and only for one character and b) you said SS2 and 3,making sound like some universal undocumented feature. You're going to have to come better than that I'm afraid.

Which isn't to say that Q was correct in saying that you could control your opponent's meter building in SvC, or that it's somehow some sort of feather in the game's cap over its multitude of problems. As far as I'm concerned, you're both wrong. ^_^

I don't know where you've been Q. My RIT roommates and I moved from the arcade to our living room since May of 2000 (read: when MvC2 came out) because our arcade still hadn't gotten anything past MvC1. We had home built sticks, and eventually had an entire arcade console built (one of many, actually, for our videogame club - yes, we managed to start a videogame club and get away with it) right there in the living room. It was grand and better than the arcade, since we could hook up a projector (don't ask where it came from) to project a 6' image and could play any DC or PS2 game we wanted. We still used to pass by the arcade if we felt like playing MvC1 (rare), since the DC version of that wasn't so good, but the arcade itself went to hell, with terrible joysticks (ever play on a machine where two buttons are reversed? We eventually had an MvC2 machine that had HP and LK swapped from some mythical magical reason) and no new games.

Trinidad may have shielded you from some of the horrors that arcades went through away, but while Trinidad is great for older games, its arcades (what few are left) are waaaay behind if you actually want to play anything made after 2000.

True enough, though I wasn't TOTALLY shielded. I actually go through that in St James. SF EX2 Plus, you press a FP and get MK (the wires got crossed or some junk).

"What few are left"
Yuh damn right. Right now, I'm basing in a sports bar that has some machines: MvC1, SamShoIV, Chaos, KOF 98, CvS1, XMenvSF, Raiden Fighters, Ultimate MK3, Hyper SF, KI2, SF EX plus @ (supposed to be alpha), Metal Slug 3 and Tekken 4. When there's nobody to fight, I just play pool and chill with my crew. There's the occassional bacchanal so that helps break the monotony. (Yuh ever see a man get slap wit a me-too wen he chile-mudda come for maintenence? Dat was a good one...)

Anyway... Someone made a sad but true statement when I went to Java (Sorry I didn't get his name):

"The days for the arcade in Trinidad and Tobago are over."


It's a hard reality but it is one from which I cannot escape. *Chokin back the tears...*

POS, upstairs Grillers/Hosein's Roti Shop by the Promenade, on the corner of lower Henry Street. A place called "Jerry's". That's where some of the SamShoIV fighters from Colsort breeze from time to time. It's a good night when we all come out. Sometimes we do a "random-out" or just spend the night killing each other with our self-chosen best players (better yet if one of the bar staff didn't close the coin door properly). Everything else is just light entertainment. I'm currently unopposed in SF EX @, MvC1, Chaos and KI2 (XMen also, if I'm REALLY idle). No competition, bores me to death. I'm not an MK3 player but they have some good fighters too... I guess. It's not like I'm in a position to say otherwise. I prefer Trilogy.

Good times in SamuraiIV, though... Good times.

So far, I've got a LOT of MK, a couple SF Super Matches but nothing worth putting online yet. This has got to be good. On the bright side, I got a new camcorder so the next time GATT has a sweat and I'm available, I'll play paparazzi.

God is good.

Sorry to unring that bell N.E.O. but I usually just play Trilogy in the office with a co-worker of mine. I'm not Master in MK but I have my moments. Still, I've got some cool glitches I recorded. I'll post the raw footage for now at least so you can see and maybe have a good laugh.

Q hit me on msn we can arrange something for this weekend.

Sounds like a possible plan. My folks' anniversary is Sunday so that's out but maybe after the little lady and I part ways on Saturday I can basicaly go nuts. The rest of the day is mine. I'll take you up on that for sure once I can navigate my day rb. SWEET!!! :awesome:

Point to note, fellas: Make sure and give yuh woman she due time. Doh STICK.
