Kohaku's Video Room / Match videos from TGA ranbat 2-3 (lol least toast)

« on: April 16, 2007, 11:28:20 PM »

So a bunch of people decided to have some gays of verb. This is from the ranking battle run at Tokyo Game Action on April 14th, 2007.

These were all recorded with Chibi's mini-DV camera, and sometimes the cameraman was either drunk (tinshi) or just tired/retarded (myself), so the stability is something left to be desired at points. Random commentary provided from Zar, Tinshi, and Master Chibi.

Not all of the videos are up yet, please be patient... oh who am I kidding, these videos are already old. Also bad; the difference in timing and random properties between the PS2 version and ver.B CE makes me a sad panda.

Tinshi vs. Zar (semifinals, winners)
Dipstick vs. Master Chibi (semifinals, winners)

Zar vs. Master Chibi (finals, winners)

King Dooky vs. Tinshi (quarterfinals, losers)
Kayin vs. Dipstick (quarterfinals, losers)

Dipstick vs. Tinshi (semifinals, losers)

Dipstick vs. Master Chibi (finals, losers) [part 1]
Dipstick vs. Master Chibi (finals, losers) [part 2]

Zar vs. Master Chibi (grand finals) [part 1]
Zar vs. Master Chibi (grand finals) [part 2]

Omake:
Zar in the 3S tournament, vs. DSP
Zar vs. Master Chibi ("grand" "finals")

Tournaments and Events / Tokyo Game Action's Ranking Battle 2-3 (MA, 4/14/2007)

« on: March 26, 2007, 06:37:04 PM »

The results keep being random, with two new people (KoreanDJ and Spic Tom, local SSBM players from MA) winning the last ranbat. However, this tournament was absent some of the region's best players (and not so best), so this tournament should have different results yet again.

Who will win?

For Sp00ky/Zar/Chibi: This event is two weeks before Showdown Championships, not one.

"Tokyo Game Action"
5 Summer Dr.
Winchendon, Massachusetts 01475

Directions:

From 95 North, take EXIT 6B towards 495 North.

- From 495 N, take EXIT 29B, then that'll be Rt.2 WEST. (20-30 min drive)

- From Rt. 2 W, take EXIT 24B, then tha'll be Rt.140 NORTH. (10-15 min drive)

- From Rt. 140 N, keep going straight down for about 15 min.

- Eventually you are going to run on a little bridge with a pond on your right, from there take a RIGHT onto Beech Street.

- At the end of Beech St., take a right onto 5 Summer Dr. and you'll see our beloved Tokyo Game Action.

Sadly, they took the video equipment out of MB:AC and stuck it in CvS2. Who the hell plays CvS2? Hopefully someone will bring a camcorder and record on their own.
