When's Melty on Steam?
ahaha that's no--wait, what?
-
I doubt min f'in masters would ever post this here either, but unlike DSP he does not actually loathe MB (just Chibi) -- so here it is.
The date: Saturday, May 19, 2007
The time: 12pm to 12am
The price: $10 cover, $5 to enter MB:AC
The place: web2zone
54 Cooper Square (Cafe area)
New York, NY 10003
212-614-7300
Doors open at 12, casuals until 3. Tournament signups are from 1:30 until 2:30, and all tournaments are scheduled to start at 3 PM. Standard rules (2/3 rounds 2/3 games 3/5 for winners final, losers final, grand finals), bring your own stick or pad, we're playing on the PS2 version because we're ghetto, and don't act stupid. Also sickness and rank odor are banned so don't bring that shit.
MB will be there, even though this is meant to be an Evo East prep. event and there's no such noise at Evo (this year :V ). MB actually included a pot bonus last time (!!) and that offer is on the table again from web2zone, turnout dependent. MB is also the only five dollar tournament (open question: should this change?) because MB is the baller's choice and we can afford that shit. Games should be recorded (they will be if I make it), so be prepared to make an ass out of the 100 people live in attendance and a few hundred more watching on youtube. Sp00ky and Zar should be back for this, and they are going to be very fucking angry and just as hungry. Lots of other people have things to prove, from XAQ and his relationship with Arc to Chibi and his ability to think and Dippy and his willingness to exist.
Other tournament games:
-SF3: Third Strike
-Capcom vs. SNK 2
-Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo
-Marvel vs. Capcom 2
-Guilty Gear XX Slash (singles and teams)
-Virtua Fighter 5 (aka best game ever)
-Tekken 5: Dark Ressurection
-Dead or Alive 4
On top of that, lasers, traps, and lolis will all be available at the venue. No reason not to go.
Get hype,
Get hungry,
Get better,
Get shot.

Dippy had to add that one word in to get me to go :V

-

Sorry it took so long to post, but ranking results from the first ranbat. This one will be seeded using them. I don't have much time right now so i'll post the specifics on thursday when I get back from my vacation. Top 8 present will get seeded, with ties broken randomly. Everyone else is random.
I'm also thinking of including a bonus as an incentive for people to step their game up. I'm still working on the details though.
1)Xaq - 7
2)Chibi - 6
3)Damian - 5
4)Andrew - 4
5)Buri - 3
5)Chaz - 3
7)Rich - 2
7)Zaelar - 2
The following all have 1:
Jamie, Tony, Kayin, Sven, Nightroad, Finale, Desert Coffin,Kyle, 30pot, Nas, Plural, Legacy.

I actually saw your edit because I checked this thread in the afternoon and I checked it again just now. lol, Good shit on politicking it up dippy, and no I'm not being sarcastic haha. ;D :toot:

Updating on the format.
First the point system. To start, first gets 7, second gets 6, ect., with 1 being the minimum(everyone who enters gets at least 1 point). Also, for each tournament, there will be an incrace to the points given. This tournament, first gets +3 and second gets +1, so first gets 10, seocnd gets 7, third gets 5, and one less for each place down. 9th and worse get one point.
The seeding is the top 4 get byes to the semi-semi-finals(must win 3 games to make it to the grand finals in winners side, will get 9th if they go out in two). The next 4 get byes to the semi-semi-semi-finals(must win 4; 13th if out in two). All ties will be broken randomly. Out of everyone who doesn't get seeded, there will be 4 in winners and 4 in losers who make it to those who do get seeded. Depending on the number of entrees, it might be run on two brackets. The first bracket, for those who don't get seeded, will need to make top 8 to make it to the seeded bracket.
-
Zaeler: That seeding fucking sucks. Just seed the top players away from each other and call it a day. The last thing we need is people going 'lol rigged'.
-
Dippy, is you be bringing a tv to melty blood play with?
>:D
-
Yeah, I'm taking a TV on the NY subway for 90 minutes each way to save (http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/8325/emot20buxvd5.gif)? No.
-
Well peeps from Deleware are coming by bus and doing the same thing.
But I was just checking good sir.
:V
-
well i could pay off the 10 dollars.. so paying an extra 10 is not the issue..and im not going to lug from a bus to a train to a subway to a bus... hence looking for an lugguge bag or sumthing so i don't look stupid/get stolen right in front of me...
-
Fucking managers like ignoring requests for days off.
Unless I can switch with someone for THIS SATURDAY, count me out.
Sorry guys, no scrubby Miyako this time :emo:
P.S. I got three points. I AM WINNAR.

you betta go leizzy lol..

Tournament writeup:
Skipping right to the semi-semi-finals, Xaq, returning champion, defeats Dippy. Zaelar defeats Sibladeko, and Chibi, returning runner-up, defeats Andrew. Damian defeats Sp00ky, who wan't present at last tournament due to being busy earning second place in Texas. In Semi-Finals, Zaelar defeats Xaq in a major upset according to last tournament's ranking, and Damian defeats Chibi, getting revenge for peacing him out at third place last tournament. In Winner's finals, Damian defeats Zaelar.
In the losers bracket, Andrew eliminate's Sp00ky, and Dippy eliminates Sibladeko, giving them both seventh place. Xaq eliminates Andrew, and Chibi eliminates Dippy in fifth place. Xaq eliminates Chibi for fourth, and continues fighting his way though losers by eliminating me in third, and beats Damian in two sets to take first place.

=ooo Spook got 7th? And damn, XAQs been tearin it up lately!
Congrats to all you guys. => Keep playin your ass off.
-
Yesterday's tournament was just pure ass.
Probably the worst any of us have ever played.
L_L
-
Surprising that Spooky placed so poorly... but I do not think it's much to worry about. It was the PS2 version, afterall. Just hope that he doesn't consider not coming to West Toast because of this D:
-
I lost. It's not a big deal really it happens, just motivates me to rethink my playing a little. But yeah im not taking anything away form anyone here, I was losing to XAQ in casuals as well.
I didn't execute poorly or anything either from what I can see in the vids. I just got outguessed a lot.
-
This really was one of the most depressing tournaments I have ever seen. I'm not a believer in Hype(tm) but there was negative buzz in the air with this tournament. It felt like I was attending a funeral... and maybe I was.
I didn't execute poorly or anything either from what I can see in the vids. I just got airthrown a lot.
Fixed. :V
Two things I need to address now before they possibly get out of hand:
Sabin: I heard some of the things you said about me and I'm :(. I have no quarrel with you (except with some fighting game full of little girls :V). Just because I freaked when you started grabbing me doesn't mean I think ill of you, then or now. I couldn't even hear you (I had my headphones on) and I'm paranoid as fuck, so when someone grabs me from behind out of nowhere yeah I'm going to start spazzing out. :\
Master Chibi: I've been hearing that you want to challenge me to a $500 money match. Well, you should know I would never accept such an endeavor. :\
-
I said $50, not $500, I don't know where $500 came from.
;P
-
I said $50, not $500, I don't know where $500 came from.
;P
That's even lamer -- at least $500 was absurd enough to make people double-take. Nobody is going to give a shit about two replacement-level players playing for $50.
-
Double or nothing.
-
i must say... it wasn't that depressing to me... matter fact really nothing depresses me that badly... the only thing that was bad was attendence.. but that's due to evo east being close
spooky lost... shit happens...im sure he'll be fine when he goes to west toast..
dippy.. you cool peeps man... but you gotta calm down on the depress shit dog...but you cool... thanks for the casuals
and yo special thank you to spooky.. not only letting me stay at your crib.. but also for giving me some info that i will need to work
Chibis- sorry ill bring the tv next time...
Xaq-good ass whippings by you sir... next time man... next time
sibladeko- good matches against Warcueid...hope to play you again too..
tinshi-haha you's a cool dude man...i need to play in MELTY BLOOD.. although i like playing peeps in tekken DR...
ill be there next time....
i won't be so scrubby next time (or less scrubby next time)

damian's habit of air throwing is something that he has picked up from playing gg. we quit playing melty blood about two months ago because i told him the game was crap. i didnt like the snobby attitude i got from you when i offered to travel to play you and engaged in a very one-sided effort to keep in touch. we might have learned a lot together eventually, but it is of no concern to me now. i suppose i was the only one who could see that. if your scene dies, blame yourselves.
-
I was always very polite to you. P.S. our scene is doing fine.
-
so mark your calenders folks ill be in the building again... um whenever they have another... um ... you know... web2zone.. or sumthing like that... cuse MB is cool.. and yea!!!... and maybe some VF cuse vanessa is Hawt!!
-
2 ciel's in the winners final... lets accept that shes broken and move on... also i use sj.c more than j.b, i learned to abuse j.c's clash frames a long time ago to deal with nero chaos's clash frames and it stuck... in fact anything i do is designed to beat clash frames or people who jump... in the last match i saved dashing 5a, 4c for the final moments to stop spooky from jumping but i try not to use it too much since its so scrubby... beats low parry, sets up throws, stops jumpers, chains into madness, does everything and more etc... also option select air parry/throw is too good...
mb at evo east? anyone?
-
mb at evo east? anyone?
definitely :D
-
If someone gets us a setup I'll run a tournament as long as it doesn't conflict with another tournament I'm entering.
-
I'll get us a setup.
Let's talk tonight about getting there first.
>_<
-
Ciels not broken at all, she's just a popular character. If you have 3 ciels playing in a 12 man tournament it's easy for 2 of them to be in top 3.
Also dashing 5A loses to low parry. A attacks can be parried both ways. The real reason it works and why you should keep doing it is because it looks like a throw setup so people (including me) poke it.
-
Ciel is popular for real man.. holy shit...!!!
yo i might be there for evo east so set up that shit.. ill play mb combos like tekken combos.. lol
-
I'm scheming something up...a Melty Blood Ranbat Masters Tournament! (Nothing finalized, just ideaing)Right now my idea is something along the lines of right after the fifth ranbat, the top some people by ranbat ranks and the highest placed person or two at the tournament not at the top of the ranbat get to play in this invitation only free entree tournament. Single elimination, one game, 3/5 rounds, and I'll put some money down for a prize. Again, nothing is in stone yet, but I'll be trying to get something like this to happen.
