Maannnn, EC is too gutter. Too gangster. Too keeping-it-real-like. When times get rough for hungry MB players, we get down to the nitty gritty. You hand us lemons, we make explosives out of them. Take away our venue to run an MB tourney - fuck it, we hit the street vending machines :psyduck:. Yeah, that's right, this past weekend's ECMB 'revival' attempt literally took place on the mean streets of Chinatown, NYC.

The event was originally supposed to be held partially at Chinatown Fair arcade (CF) and later in a commodious venue (known as THE GAZEBO) but plans were abruptly changed when the issue of a power supply to the laptops was overlooked (my bad guys  :( ). Many :sadfaces: surfaced and profanities were flying out and about - mostly by yours truly  ;D. THE GAZEBO was victim to energy piracy on a few occasions in the past but for some mysterious reason we got no juice this time around. While some were twiddling their thumbs on what to do at the time, other MB soldiers (sp00ky & Zaelar) dispatched in search of other available options.

Option 1: ...The latrine. Yes....a bathroom.....what in the hell! This bathroom was located about 30-40ft below THE GAZEBO and ironically....it had a power source. (Why must God taunt me?). Well, having 15+ ppl entering a public bathroom for some MB was definitely out of the question for many (lol not me though!) so the next best option was to buy several extension cords equatable to 40ft, and have it run up the wall and on to THE GAZEBO'S floor then connecting to the laptops in that manner. Wow...so crazy that it might just work!

...But sometimes less crazy works too. Thankfully, Sp00ky/Zaelar took notice to a 'small house' at the other end of the park grounds. Hmmm, the odds of a power supply in that area does seem probable and sounds a lot better than siphoning energy from a restroom  :V. What the heck, let's give that a shot. Plan A: Toilet Energy Vine (not real name) was bumped to Plan B and Sp00ky , Zaelar, and myself marched off into the unknown.

We turn the corner of the house and eventually take notice to two vending machines against the wall. Hark! Lights are emanating from the banner of a Snapple vendor. There...could...be...a chance. Spooky dips behind the machine and locates the outlet while I prepare to feed him the laptop adapter I had ready for any outlets that may have caught our sight. Its plugged in and we wait....

GREEN! The light...it turned green! OMG We have powerrrrrr! Adrenaline courses through my veins- fueling me with much hype just as the city will soon be fueling several laptops when the others arrive. We give Chibi the word to escort the gang over and the most poor melty blood experience ECMB has ever experienced commenced that night...in a park....in front of two vending machines...on the pavement.  :prinny:


Goddamn, this event was something else! Mad fun though. Very surprised at who showed up and the distances these ppl traveled just for some casuals and a $1 tourney! If thats not hunger then some of y'all need to check into a clinic. Before I give my long ass list of shout outs, I'd like to thank all of those that support the scene, helped out, and didn't knock my head off for the random fuck up. GG's mah niggs.

Sp00ky: mah, nigga the Vicula of Meltyvania. Thanks for letting me drag you out to this despite there was a good chance that ppl werent going to show up (even though this wasnt the case). Shows you still care about the game, your game, and the community. Stay sharp, brutha.

Zaelar: Dude, thanks for staying hungry all these years and doing this shit on a whim. Lugging all of that equip and sharing the stick was much appreciated. Good shit taking the tourney but I'm looking to get that No.7 w/ the side order of eggrolls for myself next time.

Chibi: you too, dude. I know you got some shit that needs to be taken care of atm so I'm very appreciative that you made the time and sacrificed(?) to make the event. Good shit w/ Hisui, man. You stepped shit up quit a bit (uuughh? blockstrings!). Don't get randomed out next time though  :-*.

Tinshi: .......you random. Came out of the park shadows to get down on dat mb. Gooooddd shizindfaldjrahtwjoien. Keep playing to see the results you desire...or some zen shit.

Nightroad: O M F G. Dude, h-h-how!  :o Do you know where you live!? I do! Kinda cool to randomly meet one of my 'clients' IRL. You got some good stuff going on with almost half the cast, nice. You still playing the wrong char though  ::). Props to you and your boy, Kamina for making such a long trek (I dont want to know how long  :psyduck:) for a few hrs of MB.

Baod: Were you.....THAT BORED? Canada? CANADA! Holy fuck, I cant even think of a word that explains that sort of dedication. You damn Canadians and your 7hr trips to play shitty doujin games that ppl dont play. Hahah much kudos to you, sir. I really hope you can make it to another event in the future. And if you do show up again, your ps3 stick is banned. Too damn gdlk.  :slowpoke:

Zan: "Who's on first?" lol j/k. Some funky movement you got there w/ aquiha. Gotta hop on those elbow loops and get off that re-act mode! I wanna see 5k combos next time plz.

Hyperhal: you bum, why you holding out w/ the wara sexiness. Glad you stopped running that joke of a char though. Lets see some wara-beastage next time around. And that mb-garbage joke wound is still healing  :emo:. Damn youuuu!

Makoto Scrub: yup, it's time to get back into mb. Going to try and run this back a few times so you'd better practice. What to see hair-band gayness next time around.

Phae: GOOOODDD SHHHH. Radiobag is srs bsnss. And to think, it was only at half power! Max volume would have surely gotten us arrested lol. Find out how to take those speakers out for an even distribution of MB bangingness. We definitely mugging you fo' yo' sheit next time around.

DarkSaint: Good stuff coming through for the early XMas lol. I'll try to do the event a bit earlier so we can get in more casuals after. Until then, you should mess w/ stick a bit more cus you werent doing that bad in cf casuals. Thanks for helping out w/ brackets too.

SumAnzDude: I know you hungry! Feinding to lvl up that crazy maid bitch. I'm glad that you're one of the few AH players that care enough to acknowledge MB and put in the time to practice stuff. When you're not watching AH2 vids, hunt for those H&K match vids cus I would like to learn how to fight her b.s. more.

Nas: ...you so bunz lol. Why you play everything, dog? Thanks for keeping the interest despite lack of comp in your area. Practice, dammit and stop playing bunz gaymz.  :-\  j/k

Yo, if I forgot someone just tell me I suck next time you see me or something and my bad.

And now....

zar are you even aware that your attitude is what drove people off in the first place. i think zar's attitude is worse than all of that. cause neither of you guys mean anything. but zar can poison shit around him. zar's the one that gets personal online and does realtalk that's out of line.

I'll try to get off my lazy ass and get replays up within the next 24 hours.

I've been saying it all along, one game single elim is TOO HYPE!  It was even more hype than I was expecting.  I wasn't prepared.

Big thanks to everyone who was there!

Next time we need to watch the profanity considering where we are.  I'm not going to get upset over some good shits or anything but don't be shouting profanities at the top of your lungs.

Also Chibi has the top 8 bracket.  If he gets it scanned I'll translate my chicken scratches.

And....apparently I'm not as lazy as I thought I'd be.  http://www.meltybread.com/replays/TP-NYgazeebo-(4-19-08).zip

Whoever makes brackets need to not put me next to nas next time I have had to fight him in like the last 5 tourneys I have seen him in. Would like to see him fight other people. Vids of top4 are in the works should be done pretty quick I think. A certain special guest is probably going to encode them if he agrees to it, if not then I'll just do lazy encode. Thanks again for all the matches and for everyoen who came out, and thanks for treating me like a special guest even though I'm not :P

DarkSaint: whats up w/ the TM brackets? post image plz when you get time

Hal: You have any random non game related footage that you would like to share? post if you do. May want to talk to others about whether they want to be seen on the internets first though.

Sexy Mega-Edit is still in working progress so hold on for a bit for you ppl that are interested.

I checked the bag, the speakers unzip from the main backpack and I think if we position the bookbag so the laptop rests against it I can put the speakers one on each side of said laptop

if not there is no stereo melty, the cords connecting the speakers to the bookbag do not stretch very far. :teach:

Good shit, Sp00ky. Thanks for taking 2hrs or so of your time to encode and ul the vids   ::). It's too bad we couldnt get the super-edit that I promised you all. Oh well, we'll just have to make w/ what we have for the next time around. At least I know they'll be ul'd at decent time and shortly after BBG2.

Again, good shit to all youse for attending and reping mb and making a contribution to keep ECMB alive!  8)
