GG's to all who attended & Best of luck yo Vyse and his sick Nyu game in BB, take it to the londoners!

Yreval · 08-08-2009 10:45pm

I have to say I don't think I played particularly well today, but GGs to everyone I played and congratulations to Vyze (who absolutely killified me in BB), Chuu and Nunko.

Chuu (aka Simon Lau). He beat The Witch in a rather one-sided final - he lost a round in the first game but dominated from then on.

Great tournament lads had a blast, nice to finally get out and meet some of you! (I was the guy in the top gun hoodie/ red Cerberus t-shirt in case you are having trouble matching username to face)

Monkeyto · 08-08-2009 11:49pm

I have a fair few games vids and lots of photos! I'll post the up when I get the chance.

Overall we performed quite well.

Personally I best my groups top postion player then made silly mistakes against two others. I'm not bummed though my core game was solid and in future I'll work on fixing the fancy stuff!!!

AnimeX, Witcher and Hmuya all made it to the second round with the Witcher making all the way ot the finals! Unfortunately the Blanka in the final turned out to be very good, but overall I think mostely we learned new things to improve our games!!!

Great experience!

fake_roogle · 09-08-2009 12:12am

gg's all, nice to see a lot of people from out of belfast and down south to make the effort to come up, makes the tournament a lot more fun for everyone involved

K.O.Kiki · 09-08-2009 12:55am

I think I have further cemented my position as the Island's worst player though - not a single win to my name yet!
Oh well, train some more, train some more...

GGs guys, Belfast was pretty cool alright.
Grand final match should be up on youtube tomorrow (cam was a bit shaky though)

chopperbyrne · 09-08-2009 12:58am

I enjoyed myself. Should probably have stuck to Rose instead of switching to Honda for the tournament.

Definitely head up again the next time you're having a tournament like this, but might get the Aircoach instead so we can stay til the end.

Did that Ryu player win 3rd Strike in the end?

He fears my Necro!

bush · 09-08-2009 4:15am

So a blanka won? Nice

Good luck to him in london, if hes going.

I made it to the second round too!

Had quite a frustrating game V Simons Blanka,he beat me 2 games to 1.
I much prefere the way they did the knock out rounds with it being the best of 3 games.Maybe we should do that at the XGC tourneys but it might be too time consuming with a double elimination bracket.

I'd like to have seen Bush playing him,2 good Blankas would have been interesting.

bush · 09-08-2009 9:51am

2 out of 3 games would be ideal, if we started early i dont see why we couldnt do it too. How many was at the tourney yesterday?

I think there was around 20 or so,might have been a few more.

animaX · 09-08-2009 12:21pm

Yeah, good stuff lads! I think the we made a good showing. Great day overall, good laugh and hopefully we can get a few more from the south if it happens again.

Now I really gotta work on bison and blanka matchups

chopperbyrne · 09-08-2009 12:29pm

Lets get those videos and photos up too.

Even if it will show my embarrassing loss!

Thanks,I really wasn't sure.I was disappointed not to get a game in with you,I haven't played any really good Sakuras yet.

mr_kyle · 09-08-2009 5:16pm

Cheers to all the RoI guys who were able to make it down! I hope you guys all enjoyed yourselves and any feedback you want to give is welcome. Unfortunately I don't get too much time for socialising on the day due to having to coordinate things. Would have liked to got a chance to chat to you guys in person for a bit longer than I did.

K.O.Kiki · 09-08-2009 5:59pm

Re: camera
Urgh, looks like the video footage has horrible flicker -- no idea what to do!
Help!

chopperbyrne · 09-08-2009 6:04pm

Throw one on youtube anyway and we'll see how good/bad it looks.

I hope the footage of me Vs Simon's Blanka is unusable!Lost thing I want to see is me inexplicably cancelling a level 3 focus on a dizzy Blanka and whining about not teching throws.

Reanimemmett · 09-08-2009 7:39pm

I hope there's another one soon.

Yeah, I had that too with most of my footage of the PES UK Finals a week ago. When I recorded the split screen for the crowd, it flickered, but when I recorded the screen the players were using, it didn't - I think they were using a VGA splitter because any other HD splitter would have been really expensive. Were you recording a screen split from the main? Here: http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/question336.htm

Placebo · 09-08-2009 9:23pm

**** MY LIFE

IF I had my stick !!!
got kicked out on quatre finals, had to use a namco, then changed to hrap 2 but i never set the LK button and thats my throw and air poke gone, no game !

so i lost to Lolly, her and Ryu player got to the final and obviously he won it.

i suck.

that is all.

atleast i didnt lose to a girl in the qualifiers

chopperbyrne · 09-08-2009 9:31pm

IT WAS CASUALS DAMNIT!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't even own the game!

At least I left Belfast with a 100% record in Third Strike!

Placebo · 09-08-2009 9:38pm

yeah rigth ! fair deuce on beating ryu chap though.
He was actually from manchester, thus the amazing parrying

cant believe he pulled a LETs GO JUSTIN ON ME

had i been in the final with him, that would have been something !

chopperbyrne · 09-08-2009 9:43pm

Why didn't you just say that your buttons were wrong and have the match restarted?

You whipped that girl in the group stages.

mr_kyle · 09-08-2009 10:25pm

Nunko, the 3S denjin Ryu you guys are chatting about, is from Omagh but studies in Manchester just to clarify.
