Yeah, get hype.  Probably going to be at cf till we get kicked out then to our secondary location.  Should have mb and ab action.

update:  Come whenever you want.  CF opens noonish, which I hope to be there not long after.  Gazeebo is weather dependent, but the forecast looks good.

ARGH!!!!!!!! This sucks. a couple of people are going to an NJ tourney his same day. Myself, Xaq, and maybe Lord-Knight(not sure about him though) On the off chance that I do miss LEOCON(doubt it will happen since the brackets are being run on my laptop)I'll come down. Why don't you guys try to make this weekly or bi-weekly. I really want to come since the MB community is #1 priority but I already made plans a few weeks ago.

I just read the other posts, if baod comes I have to go. How can I not when he's coming from Canada.

We LIVE in NJ and we don't even know about this tournament you guys are going on about.

Seriously, fuck that shit and come out to CF, I guarantee you'll have a better time.

I'll be co-hosting this event w/ Zaelar/Chibi. As Zaelar mentioned, CF opens at about 12pm on Sat's. I intended to be there at about 1pm-2pm to help set up and such. The arcade owner (Sam) shows up to shut out shit down at around 7pm but for precaution we'll close up shop at about 6pm then move out to THE GAZEBO till ppl decide they want to go the fuck home.  :psyduck: 

This is basically an experiment to attempt to reclaim the non-netplay scene for EC as well as possibly draw in some new players. Zaelar and Chibi will be providing sticks (sexy ass hori's) for the setup and it is encouraged that make use of them. We plan to run casuals on Arcade Mode setting where one game is played and the winner stays on (until they accumulate 10wins, then they gotta get the fuck off  >:( ). To maintain a smooth pace of battles, it is encouraged that you use this sticks provided so uuuhhh yeah - none of that pad shit fucking up the flow. If you have your own stick w/ the same config as the Horis and you feel that it's absolutely necessary to  :fap: with it, then go ahead, because all it takes is a simple swap out w/o reconfiguring. In a sense, this emulates an arcade atmosphere for the melty community i.e. "what if CF had MBAC"  :mystery:. This will likely be running on one setup with quite a few ppl trying to play, so please try to understand.

One-1-and-out tourney ($1 entry, one game, single elim, winner take all) is probable near the end of the casual session so whoever wants to get down, talk to Zaelar so he can throw you up in Dem Brackets.

A few ruwelz:

First and most IMPORTANT: DO NOT BANG, BASH, MISTREAT, THROW, PUNCH, or misuse the sticks in any way (you anger management ppl know what im talking about). You get caught mishandling sticks, you don't play. Simple as that. Zaelar/Chibi are kind enough to allow us to all play with their sticks (................................................. .......................no homo) so please try to show your appreciation by not going nuts on them.

Second, we simply ask you to not disrespect the mods and hosts of the event (Zaelar/Chibi/Myself). Remember: we're doing this for you guys and I'm pretty sure if we weren't doing this no one else would so try not to act up, plz. Shit-talking to mods in-game is acceptable though and highly encouraged  :blah:. Stay hype you bums.

Next, the 10-win streak rule. Since the game will be set to Arcade Mode it will be easy to determine when 10-wins are accumulated. In the event that this occurs, the player wins a special trip to the Stop-Beasting-Please Bench. There, you can enjoy watching scrubs play and take in some of that fine CF recirculated air.

Last but not least........STAY HYPE, MUTHAFWAKAHZZZZJFOISJDABKAAUDOUFOW$*(Wn. Melty Blood is serious business! AAAAGGGHHHHH! If this all goes well, hopefully Zaelar can start working a hype-point system for regular events to keep the players hungry for the top spots.

: Zaelar
Should have mb and mb action.
*fixed*. Hey, did Chibi tell you about the megaphone idea? Let me know if you're down for that.

Gazeebo death-massacre, WHATS REALLY GOOD?!?!?!

See you bums there.

Chibi told me about the megaphone, and while I think it's a good idea to have one for tournaments I don't see why it would be needed for this.

I never said anyone could use my stick.  I don't mind most anyone using it, but i definitely have a problem with one certain individual who shall remain named(chibi) using it.

And I was thinking about running one game single elim for the hell of it if people wanted.  One dollar entree sounds good.  Sayid, if you can bring your laptop with bracket software we can make this pro, or I could just carve brackets into a bench or something.  I have another idea that is essentially the same thing but has an OH SHIZZLE! factor.

Damn Zaelar, my bad. I got so hype that I started presuming shit but thankfully you're being a trooper about letting ppl use your stick (what's up w/ the chibi hate though lol).

As for the megaphone project...I'm still going to do it, with or without youuuuu!  :'( Trying to stay hype at all times is all.

And brackets should be carved into stone so that it may be passed on to future generations of mb players! But seriously, I'll just bring the lappy. "OH SHIZZLE! factor"? If it involves stripping for losing or something along those lines, Phae get's in for free!  :prinny:

Should be at CF around 1pm.

I can't play on stick, so I guess I'm a no go. =(

Allow pads next time!  >:(
: Re: cf/gazeebo meetup in ny 4/19
: DarkSaint April 20, 2008, 07:10:17 AM
We did get to play on pads, everyonr just played stick when we were at CF, but after that we switched up.
: Re: cf/gazeebo meetup in ny 4/19
: Zaelar April 20, 2008, 09:16:15 AM
The sticks were just for casuals since it takes a good amount of time to switch controllers after every game, and doing 2/3 to see who stays and who goes when there are 5+ people would leave people playing once an hour.  During tournament I want everyone at the top of their game.

We didn't use the secret factor I was thinking of, maybe next time.  It was just pulling names out of a hat instead of using a bracket, so no one would know who they were going to play until they were up.  Winners go into the next hat, losers get shredded.  It's exactly the same as a single elim bracket, like the one we used.

Thanks to everyone who showed to make this a fun INTERNATIONAL event!  Good shit to our canadian friend who made top 4.(I think)

: baod April 20, 2008, 06:23:59 PM
Thanks Zaelar. I was only in the top 4 because i was lucky enough to avoid you/zar/sp00ky til semi-finals.

But I played pretty bad, countless execution problems from inputing stuff too early (5b not registering after ex whip, 2/5a-ing too early after 236c -> dash, etc), making bad decisions (attempting 2c reset when im dropping bnbs like crazy, on someone that i have yet to establish the threat of 6b reset first), and bad spacing (letting sp00ky 5b me in the back). I will at least fix delay 0 execution by the next time I come for MB.


Anyways that was mad fun, totally worth the trip. I don't know if I can keep coming for one day events, but I will be more than happy to drop by for a gathering that lasts 2 or more days.

I wrote up one long ass post from my phone while on the way back from NYC, but something happened and the thing was lost in cyberspace. GGs to all, especially Baod/DarkSaint, hopefully niggas can make it out again for longer periods of time.

But I played pretty bad

Dude, everyone played bad, it was a wake up call that niggas were maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad rusty. I mean I practically lost to crowd noise XD. Don't fret it, but yeah come down again, we'd love to have you, and we'll see what's going on for making it two days or what have you.

Good shit to all involved. I sucked horribly until casuals after the tourney :mystery: :psyduck: Good shit to baod, who also somehow avoided me. Hopefully we can keep this up so I can get into shape for EVO, and of course my Santa Claus Ciel ftw. And good shit to Tinshi with his top tier verbal skillz. Broke, leave that Arcana alone.
