    Xinkai.

    You win BBCT tournaments with DDDDDDDDDD Nu-13.

    You're not allowed to complain, ever.

    Also, how else do we find the next Cobelcog Hound?? Got to let them know there's a scene out there.
    And that they can get saltier stronger by coming to our tourneys.

    if anyone gets destroyed and is in a bad mood for the day and pissed I'd say they're mentally unstable anyway and have serious issues

    5DD 4DD 236D lather, rinse, repeat.



    Always repeat.


    ALWAYS.


    But not anymore*:D Soon there won't even be a 5DD. How much of an apology could they give for having such a busted tier character?


    See now, I'd be the banger, but I'm too cheap to bother myself to go to a con as of yet*:pac:

    I'm clearly "mentally unstable and have serious issues" then. Not just very disappointed when the practice and time I put in shows for nothing when it matters most. No that's not it at all and it's not because I want to achieve more than I have in the past and that another failure causes me to be down about it because I believed I'd finally at least satisfy myself with my own performance. No no It's not that either it's because, I'm "mentally unstable and have serious issues". :rolleyes:

    Try again Dr.Phil.

    I've been to the last 3 Eirtakons. I'm bummed about missing it this year :(

    Especially since I would get the chance to share my Anime love with my SF friends!

    Thread of the year.
    I can see what Patrick is saying. However I dont see the event as an apple picking campaign. Without us there will be no real Street Fighter presence.
    We are bringing it, it is Street Fighter. The competitive scene will motivate weepers and sore losers to get better and come back harder than ever.
    Others not seriously into the game will not be bothered with it.

    Example is when i got SF3 for ps2, then it came out for the xbox so i thought i would go online with my ken and destroy some people. I bought an xbox, live etc etc to find out i was nothing. So i tryed harder.

    Also Dave you're right about Ryan. That is all.

    I wouldn't say thread of the year but entertaining all the same.

    I'll be having my little toy along with me for the weekend anyway, since I'll generally be using it for other purposes, so if you want to borrow it and I'm not already using it, go ahead.

    Because in our day, if you wanted to get your hands on anime you had to watch the 1/2 shelf in forbidden planet on Nassau St for the other 3 people who liked it and get it first and then pay 40 pounds for the priviledge to watch 1 hour of badly dubbed ova.

    Now it's got it's own trendolium section in all good video stores and of course teh intarwebz (I remember scanning Manga magazine and anime uk for new releases... sigh, those were the (horribly misspent) days).

    imagine we had XBL back in snes/sega days, i think we would be begging on the street right now. Kids have it great with their google,facebooks,youtube and ebays.

    we had MSN blogs. Zoom and Yahoo search engines. 28-56Kbps modems. IOLFree [omgz]

    If something like this scene started up then, I would havebbeen that generations Cobelcog.


    That's scary.

    I was all pro Farz, I used either alta vista or the meta spider aggregator to search :D

    I'd bring my Akuma costume from Hallowe'en last year, but my hair is far too short to style it up appropriately :(
