    Put down your Halo Reach, your Rock Band 3, your Fallout 3 and your Super Street Fighter 4....actually, no. Not the last one. Because it's finally time for the 2nd league session of the season.

    But wait, there's more! This is the first session of Movember so there will be a special fundraiser. Haven't decided exactly what but it will take up one TV for approx half an hour or so. Pay €1 per attempt and I will try to get some prizes - best performance, most charitable, etc.
    Or maybe I'll just charge for casuals :D

    Important Info:
    Moviedrome is the venue once again. From 1-4 on Saturday 13 November.

    Cost & Prize:
    Once again, each session will cost €8. €1 of this goes into a travel and entry fund for Inferno (February) while €2 goes into a prize pot for 1st-3rd. Entry also gets you a ticket for the raffle (for the Street Fighter movie collection). The winner of the session will win a bag of glacial mints.

    Points:
    1st: 15
    2nd: 12
    3rd: 10
    4th: 8
    5th-8th: 6
    8th-16th: 3
    16th-xth: 1

    Current Leaderboard:
    1st: D4RK ONION - 15 points
    2nd: Generic_name - 12 points
    3rd: FutureGuy - 10 points
    4th: Misty Chaos - 8 points
    5th-8th: Sabre0001 - 6 points
    5th-8th: Chris - 6 points
    5th-8th: Burning Eclipse - 6 points
    5th-8th: Mr. K - 6 points
    9th: Hotaru - 3 points

    I intend on being there again, of course.

    I might be a little rusty, though as my Xbox is dead, out of warranty and I can't afford to replace it at present.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 353 ✭✭Generic_name01


    Even though I'm off weekends, I havent a clue if I can attend. I'll answer the poll when I know for sures but if I do attend.... Watch out limerick cos I've mastered Gen!

    Charity Event
    To raise funds for my Movember campaign (and as a result the Irish Cancer Society), attendees (regardless of entry into league session) will be invited to take part in the 'Car Crusher' mini game within SSF4.

    Players may attempt to set a high score as many times as they like (€1 per go).

    Will post again with prizes - will be more than just the person who mashes the hardest (i.e. high score) :)

    continually contact them and tell them you are extremely dissatisfied etc etc and never buy anything Microsoft. They will fix it for you. Trust me.

    So apparently, the new Milkshake bar after opening in Limerick is similar to 'Shakes' in Dublin.

    As a result, I propose that we go there after the session!

    (and by "propose" I mean, I am going and others are welcome to join :))

    As one of the people who has to deal with those kinds of complaints personally, I can assure you we won't be offering any free of charge repairs just over a bit of moaning and whining.

    3 prizes for the charity section - in aid of Movember (for the Irish Cancer Society).

    2 x 2100 Microsoft points
    1 x 1200 Microsoft points

    Prizes for:
    Top score (car crusher bonus stage)
    Most attempts - "most charitable"
    ?????


    I know what the third one is but everyone must wait and see...I would, naturally, prefer that whoever wins the "most charitable" plays more than once or twice but can't rig it that way..........or can I :)

    Looking forward to Saturday - actually been doing alright online. And of course, online form naturally carries over to Live performances!

    Apologies for the monstrous delay. Blame Xbox. http://streetfighter.ie/?p=1441

    Somehow ended up in Clare the same weekend this is on AGAIN :P So I'll be there but I doubt I'll enter - haven't been playing much recently at all and I like my pennies >_<

    I'll definitely give the charity thing a go though :) That be alright?

    Wont be there. Alas I was hoping to go to cork this next week aswell and now cant go to either. Not getting as much muni as I'd like at work. Gotta get pressies sorted before I can get back to socialising!

    Very annoyed by this! Its very tempting to show up knowing even if I gief it, onion would have to pick makoto...

    I'll be at the next one for certain!... Maybe


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 25,872 Mod ✭✭✭✭Doctor DooM

    I actually intended on doing that at the first session but I never recorded much.

    I'll try again today, though.

    Good games all! No videos unfortunately - don't have the time at the moment for the trimming & uploading...

    FutureGuy pretty dominant today (or lucky depending on who you ask ;)).

    Current Leaderboard (after 2 sessions):
    1st: D4RK ONION - 27 points (+12)
    2nd: FutureGuy - 25 points (+15)
    3rd: Burning Eclipse - 16 points (+10)
    =4th: Misty Chaos - 14 points (+6)
    =4th: Sabre0001 - 14 points (+8)
    =6th: Generic_name - 12 points
    =6th: Mr. K - 12 points (+6)
    8th: Chris - 6 points
    9th: Hotaru - 3 points

    Also in the session, we had a fundraiser for Movember (in aid of Irish Cancer Society). Honda was the flavour of the session but people still managed to eek out some extra points. For those at home, FutureGuy set the highest score at 172,000 and won 2100 MS points. Burning Eclipse was unlucky to be pipped by just 100 points.

    Mr. K was feeling rather charitable with a number of attempts - selecting characters at random and just beating up a poor defenceless car. He got 2100 MS points for his troubles.

    Finally, D4RK ONION put on an impressive Dan display with neverending taunting of the car. He finished with the Super Taunt to land on the bonnet and get 1200 MS points for an A for effort!

    €40 raised in aid of Movember - thanks all!
