    DooM beat me in the finals to take first. That match-up is just too much for me in super. GGs to all, I think I did a good job pimping SF.ie today. There was a really good Guy player there, dressed as Hazama. I'm not sure if the costumer or his play was better :D

    Who knocked me out in the first round ;_;

    Seriously, the ONE time I might actually have won some matches (there were several eh... terrible players there) and I had to get someone GOOD :p

    No fair!

    I wasn't able to convince a mate who was going down to take 10 minutes out of his day and learn literally all he'd need to know to win with Nu. :(

    Hi. I was the guy with the leather black jacket with the white fur on it.

    It was fun. Learned new things. The Guy player who was against me was really good

    Thanks to D4RK Onion and Doctor Doom for showing me some tips

    Hoping to see you all again tomorrow!

    The Dan cosplay was good too. The red-hair guy was scary with Dan and Sakura.

    GG's to everyone. I enjoyed all the matches, One1on took a fight off me in the final, which is tough going for

    Having the piss taken out of during the Deejay match was good craic.

    The set up was good, the guys there were helpful and they listened to us on alot of stuff.

    Was alot of fun, I hope Eirtakon expand the tournament next year.

    D4RK ONION and I (I was the girl in the purpley dress hanging around a lot :p) will be there anyway :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,888 ✭✭✭Fergus_


    Oh cool. Maybe we can get a few more games in


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,333 ✭✭✭Sairus


    Damn Doom and his Guile knocked me out in the semis. I took a couple of rounds off him this time! Woo for progress =D
    I filmed all the later stages along with some of the uh... interesting earlier sessions. (The girl who'd never played before winning after being told to just keep hitting left bumper with Gief was a highlight)
    Well, I got most of the later stages. Aside from, y'know, the finals. Blame Doom for my battery not being able to keep up with him.

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,888 ✭✭✭Fergus_


    It was really fun playing tonight though. None of my friends are too big on SFIV so I play online myself so it was a fun experience to play with other people. I will be there tomorrow and get the PS3 on for SSFIV! :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,333 ✭✭✭Sairus


    All the vids from SSFIV are now up on http://www.youtube.com/sairusillumina Not arsed properly naming and tagging them tonight. That can wait =P
    Final isn't up yet - that needs a bit of surgery first.


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


    i might stall it down tomorrow if anyone's gonna be playing street fighter


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,333 ✭✭✭Sairus


    There'll probably be spots of casuals all day, but they may not exactly be up to XGC casuals standards.

    That was a funny rage quit though.


    I assume you didn't mean to do that ultra, Xinkai?


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,707 ✭✭✭✭K.O.Kiki


    Looks like he did -- trying to catch a chip headbutt.

    Ehh probably won't bother at this stage, I don't mind the quality of play or whatever but I'm not gonna head up if it won't even be on half the time :pac:

    Still no pictures of the lovely crumpet at the event:confused:


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,888 ✭✭✭Fergus_


    Great fun everyone! Sadly I won't be going to the games Expo :(

    I will see you all next year at Eirtakon 2011!


  • Registered Users Posts: 58 ✭✭YayForYuffie


    I showed up at Eirtakon with Fergus, who unfortunately got me addicted to SF, yet I suck.

    D4RK ONION tokk the time to show me some ways to link to Ryu's ultra, which I 'm grateful for but I can't execute ultras when I want to. :o
    Also Brawl tournament was fun, I cam 4th because everyone forgot I was there until only 2 people left in all matches except Finals. They killed me first. :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 151 ✭✭Blood-Martyr


    Good games to everyone there, especially ONION. Cheer for the pointers + Makoto tips :) I'll keep practicing :P

    Nah Doom I did mean to do the ultra, I thought Onion was gonna try an EX headbutt when I landed, but no joy.

    The ragequit was done just as a pure laugh though, no saltiness whatso ever....

    I'm going to sodomize you, Onion :D
