Looking for a fight: Limerick City (NOW!)

    Hello All,

    I've just finished college and have nothing to do. I'm sat here in my apartment drinking coffee after coffee.

    I have no xbox, arcade stick or street fighter 4 and as a result I very board (I've even gone into GameStop to play the 3DS SF game a few times)

    Is there anyone out there in Limerick City who wants to invite me over to play street fighter?

    I usually play with an arcade stick so if you have two that would rock! (I suppose I could always buy a cheap one myself).

    So, if you are up to nothing and looking to play street fighter 4 let me know!

    Cheers,
    David.

    I'm aware of that :D

    Perhaps I should be explicit that I am not looking for sexual intercourse. I just want to play Super / Street Fighter 4 / AE. I am in a relationship.

    To sweeten the deal I will bring cake. You name the cake and I'll get it.

    There's three ways to do things; the right way, the wrong way and the David Power way.

    At the risk of breaking into this very sarcastic thread, there are Limerick tournaments every now and then, the last of which was in July: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=73526830

    Aside from peoples' houses, casuals and tournaments are usually held in the MovieDrome on Henry Street.

    Not sure if this is actually a sarcastic thread at all, but the links are extremely relevant yes.

    Desire for casuals at home is a different thing to wanting to participate in a tournament.

    And "Bring Street Fighter to my house and I will feed you" is a very reasonable request.

    Thanks for the post Sairus. I'll look into this.

    The offer still stands though, I am still available to play.

    I meant the various sarcastic responses. David's Food 4 Fights is of course every SF players dream.

    Welcome!

    hey man, I'm from Limerick City and although I'm not available to play today, I reckon we'll organize casuals very soon. We usually play @ moviedrome. I can bring an extra pad/stick for you.

    My offer legitimate. I've nothing to do and would really like to play SSF4/EA. I've not played it for a while as I was busy with college all summer. Now that I have nothing to do I am itching to play.

    UberPrinny_Baal, while I was offering to bring cake to someone else's home I actually think your on to something with "Bring Street Fighter to my house and I will feed you". If I had my XBOX with me I would gladly feed anyone who wanted to call over to play SF4.

    Thanks for your reply FutureGuy, I would really appreciate that.

    With prior notice I should be able to bring my own stick.

    BTW, 'Food 4 Fights' is a great name for it.

    No joke, one of the Limerick guys once offered "Free milkshake for new attendees" at one of the tournaments, and I tried my best to make it work in my schedule but wasn't able to (I live in Dublin).

    I still have deep milkshake related regrets.

    I got a free pint off one of the Limerick lads. For the life of me I can't remember who. Burning Eclipse I think. But I digress. The important thing is that that pint was one of the best pints I've ever had.

    I was never given anything :(

    To balance that out though I spent the whole time taking names.

    I'm sure with years of expensive therapy you will recover.

    I'd be careful purchasing this particular console. In the description it states that it has to been opened to "correct" an issue with it not playing home made games. This means that there is guaranteed to be no warranty on it and it is possible that the console has been or will be banned from Xbox LIVE.

    He says in the description that he's open to offers but then in the comments he says that he only wants cash and is unwilling to go lower then the listed price. Seems like a dodgy character to me.
