    Hey everyone, place your bets on which game/round Onion will damage his stick.

    So just to be clear as there seems to be some confusion. The ft5's on dec 5th for baa fights 2 are character lock. The 4 man tournament is normal tournament double elim rules.

    This seems like a strange format for 4 people. There could be lots of repeat matches with some people not getting to play each other at all in this setup. I think it should just be a round robin format. As an alternative you could have something like FT3 with the 4 of us or FT5 with just me Hound and Ladno. Not sure what the time constraints are but they should be reasonably similar to what the tournament's length would have been.

    I think the 3 man FT5s is the best option.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭ayjayirl


    Tbh the top 4 one is open to what works best. I still think a rs for the 4th will work well. I like the round Robin ft3 option. Everyone plays everyone. It's a little longer but we should be ok. The other matches will go quickly and I'm gonna body nutrient freely and quickly so we should be alright.

    The main point i was making was character lock for the other matches.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,315 ✭✭✭A-Trak


    No problems with character lock.
    But as it's char lock in the grudge matches, surely there's no problem in choosing the vanilla, arcade, 2012 version etc.... Shirley ;)

    This might have to go to committee for decision. I'll convene an emergency session of the baa fights fraternity and get back to you.

    I still don't see why this is character locked. What's the logic in it?

    Is there any chance of getting a Marvel setup? I want to get the runback against Lythero. (Big surprise I know...) Or is it only Street Fighter being played that night?

    Why is it character locked? It kinda takes away some of the strategic elements and mind games from a ft5 imo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 800 ✭✭✭The Hound


    I think 3 man, myself Ladno and Cog Round Robin is best. It seems to be what everyone wants to see.

    Or just let me and Cobelcog play ft100, Edition Select. We All know Ladno hasnt got a chance at Edition Select


  • Registered Users Posts: 165 ✭✭C0unter


    Yea I think a 3 man round robin is far more intresting for the players and the spectators.

    bring in a copy of Marvel just in case, if there are plenty of set ups there I can't see anyone saying no to 1 set up for marvel.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭ayjayirl


    There will not be plenty of setups and the scheduled matches are at capacity now.

    There will be the main setup and 2 other TV's. IF people want to bring an xbox I am sure they can hook it up to the other setups but we are concentrating on arranging the main one with they stream for Baa fights. This isn't a regular tourney format :). I'll be bringing 2 xbox's and one monitor. One full setup for the stream and another to hook up for casuals.

    i say this so people don't show up expecting to play all night - thats not what Baa fights is.

    Think of it like a xmas party that is better than ANY other one yet Azza will still not be there.

  • Registered Users Posts: 3,006 ✭✭✭Ramza


    Real life matchup is proving ridiculously hard as usual...busy as f and got exams on this week and friday included, I'll try my very best to get my arse up to this but can't make any promises, money is tights too, more than likely will be coming doe

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭ayjayirl

    Starting with the best.

    P.S. Do you guys have VF costume DLC?

    P.P.S. Oi, what's chopper's stake in the MM?

    Are you joking, we don't even have VF...


  • Registered Users Posts: 238 ✭✭Cobelcog


    More importantly, do you have the SF4 Summer Vacation costume DLC?

    Also, Is there a time we're going to get kicked out by?

    No

    1:00


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭ayjayirl


    I actually never confirmed end time. Closing I'd imagine. I verify today.

    VF costumes, as Doom said, we don't even have the game. Make sure you bring it. Also Choppers stake isn't necessary as it was your hubris that put the stick up.

    Costumes for sf? Nope but I'll see if we can get them


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    Surely if chopper had any faith in himself he'd put forward his first born or something

    I ran the last Baa Fights and I believe they were happy for us to run til 1.30 am.

    Also, I don't have the summer costumes, but now feel kind of obliged to acquire them! If I have the cash I'll get them and VF (someone give me the exact version details for it). If I can't get it sorted on time, someone's gonna have to bring in their console with it on, if you don't mind plz and danke.

    I'll bring a PS3 with VF5:FS and the costumes.

    And the pain, I'll be bringing that too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭ayjayirl


    Dare I ask. Whats tourney standard rules for this game?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,041 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    3/5 rounds
    Default time (which is really low, like 45 seconds)
    All characters and stages are fine I believe.
    Loser may be able to choose stage???

    I believe it's "mash the three buttons as hard as possible then claim it's the most complex fighting game of all time"


  • Registered Users Posts: 42 schinkowski


    Wow that is way past my bedtime. Thank god it's a match I can win in my sleep.

    That's called dreaming and indeed that's the only way to win that match. Use the "late" start time to stay in the lab to try ensure you take 1 round

    Is Dural legal in FS?


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 25,868 Mod ✭✭✭✭Doctor DooM


    Is Dural legal in FS?

    The first VF was 93 so she'd be in her mid 20's now...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,041 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    Don't think Dural is on the character select screen.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,966 ✭✭✭Scavenger XIII

    ;)
    Don't think Dural is on the character select screen.

    She's on mine, think she may be locked initially.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,041 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    Anyway, it doesn't matter, he could somehow get Devil Jin into the game and I'd still win.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 25,868 Mod ✭✭✭✭Doctor DooM


    Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow. Might even stretch to having a drink :)

    These things take time.

    I plan to be crowned winner aprox 10mins after our match has begun

    Afterwards, I'm sure we can have you seated next to the rest of the D-tiers who got too big for their boots.
