    You must drink for the entirety of your ultra animation.

    This is the best idea anyone has ever had about anything... ever.

    My Ultras are 8-10 seconds long.

    I land it nearly every round.

    Are you TRYING to kill Abel players?

    Yeah. I love the way they gave Abel a free mega-powerful Ultra in this game.....

    Brainless isn't 100% free ;)

    Against any character that can't escape out of the corner, or lacks a good armour breaker, it's 90% free in the corner though.

    So far, it seems very effective against
    • Fei Long (has no long-range armour breaker)
    • Zangief -- Dreddy assures me he can EX SPD it, but I have my doubts. Brainless eats even EX Greenhand if you release it right.
    • Makoto -- The only armor breaker she has is EX Axe kick. Poor Makoto...
    • Guy -- not free per se, but his jump arc is REALLY slow so I catch him on reaction (I guess, don't know any good Guy players)
    • Hakan -- just a guess, but Hakan sucks :pac:

    p.s.: No, I'm not suggesting to rely on Brainless -- it's just a nice thing to have.

    What about having it on September 11th?

    I'm happy to make this the date! Thing is, i'm not so sure that the pub across the road from me is suitable enough (the room is an awkward shape, its away from town). Really need to book out a pub in town but i'm never in town at the moment what with being busy wrapping up the phD.

    Can anyone else help to find a suitable pub in town? I'll have more time on my hands after SVB


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,229 ✭✭✭Dreddybajs


    why the **** would I say EX spd, lol

    I know a place but a) we'd prob have to pay b) it's a private room and c) it's a bit of an old lads pub so there'd be seriously zero "growing the scene" potential.

    What about the place Ry mentioned?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,985 ✭✭✭animaX

    I'm not too worried about paying for a decent room. I'll have a little bit of spare grant money to burn!

    I'm not really sure it's suitable for our purposes though.

    If no one has a better option I could ask, but I really feel this is back up plan territory.

    Fibbers is the like the original Woodstock, we could go back, but we could never recreate it......;)


    I'm sure there would be some other decent pubs out there who'd be gameball.

    Your right there Ken,It was a once in a life time occurrence which will never,ever happen again.
    Sure you won it didn't you:D

    I don't see the reason why we can't ask Fibbers again. From all accounts it was the business.

    I can send Fibbers an E-mail if ya like, down and up stairs they got projectors and id imagine theyd have a tv or 3


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,237 ✭✭✭Owwmykneecap


    Somewhere with women please. they'll swoon after me as I drop link after link and wakeup random ultra myself to the final.

    What studenty places are around? they're usually easy going.

    Also should we set the date and let the details work themselves, work expanding the time given to it and all that?

    Great spot Sagat06, will check the Clarion out. The beers do seem pretty cheap! While fibbers (downstairs) was great for that tournament, i think it's a little bit stuffy and not quite suitable for one of our setups now. Unless the upstairs is better

    Im not a massive fan of Fibbers.


    Grew up in the place, but not a fan of it.
