was actually nice and cool down the PS3 end of the room... although that's probably because there was nobody down there
I was tempted to try and play a few casuals there but I didn't really know what the story was, and as the end of the tourney approached, the matches were just too good to miss.
Have to say, extremely impressive stuff.
Was an odd experience talking to people who I may or may not have talked to before online, not knowing who people were etc
I also got to try a joystick out for the 1st time. Seems I'll almost have to re-learn the entire game if I do go the way of the stick.
I felt bad for that akuma player. Maybe I'm wrong but to me it looked like he won 2 matches, then the other guy won 2 but I dunno.
I was extremely impressed by a lot of the players there, certainly a motivation to try and get a bit better at the game, its seems like nothing beats playing with some skillful lads in person to up your game versus playing online. I look forward to joining in on the casuals and eventuality make it in on time for a tourney next time around

He had played a match before on that console and he won the last match which left him with 1 win under his name, he then played the next loser bracket round and won set 1 which put 2 wins under his name. He then lost the next 2 sets, it has been recorded anyway.
Hey man, I was talking to you about this on the day but I think you thought I was arguing against you when I wasn't
I was just trying to get my head around what was happening. Roogle would have known if he had lost two in a row0 -

Oh no I knew you weren't arguing with me, might have just come off the wrong way. Apologies if I did.0 -

Certain it was a heat of the moment thing though as Kirby is probably the friendliest guy you'll ever meet. Although his self commentary could definitely be annoying if you're on the losing side of it.
Force of habbit tbh. Even when I'm playing at home on my own, I'm constantly chattering to myself, "Oh, that was an accident", "Didn't mean to do that" "Oh, that was a nice combo" etc.
It's just what I do... and to be fair, I do it whether I'm winning or losing. If its irritating to people I'll try and keep it in check but whats the point in showing up to real life tourney's if people talking is annoying to a person. Isn't that the point of meeting up instead of playing online? the atmosphere? the chat?
As I said, I'll try and keep it in check but I would appreciate it Vdeck that if somebody has a problem with me to say it to my face as opposed to skulking away and whispering in corners like an old lady.0 -

As I would also appreciate being able to play an opponent online who would not frown upon myself changing characters after 17 games of the same match ups
Asides from which I don't think VDeck was whispering it, more talking out loud for all to hear.
Anyway relax lads, for both players it was probably a heat of the moment things. While its not intentional, some people do commentate there own games and Kirby isn't the only one, it bothers some people and some people don't even hear it. Its just one of those things that happens at tournaments.
Besides its no where near as bad as womens tennis at times.0 -

I think you brought this up before Kirby actually, but it's when money is on the line tbh. I noticed a few gritted teeth and lowered eyebrows after a few of the defeats myself. You'd be amazed what people think is obnoxious or condescending when they have that much adrenaline in their blood and then lose.
It goes with the turf. I remember a few of the guys where muttering in college when your team trounced all of us in the CS:S tournament. Just sore losers I guess. Probably why Dan had such a beef with your "monstrosity" of a mouse, lol 0 -

Yeh I remember that. I always thought people should be able to use thier own equipment, and he banned my favourite mouse which i thought was a bit unsporting. Was still fun though, mostly cause we were all low to mid level players and the spray and pray was alive and well. I remember skipping many a class to play COD1 too. Good times Who says womens tennis is bad?! Its like daytime pr0n
Them williams sisters are awful sounding tho. And That Sharapova one sounds likes she's climaxing after every "ground stroke" 0 -
