Valkurda

That's no problem, bibamatt, I'm not too fussed over chatting cuz I'm normally on my laptop surfing when I'm playing anyway.  
Yh the matches are going quite well, seems to be around 8-10PM GMT, if anyone wants to catch me around that time, except for this weekend cuz I'm getting on Dragon Age 2 for the most part. 
And yh Random does work because there can't be many people who are going to be amazing with every single character, I mean if you get a character you know through random then fair play. 
And to reaffirm or state that mics are not required at all, but being polite and sportsmanlike is. 
=D

• @Bibamatt - yh, i do find myself getting lost in large threads.
• @ShadowVirus - sounds awesome m8, i'll look forward 2 it.

I was about to,  but after reading through it and then your comment on page 8 of the thread seemed to say to me that  
a) Majority of people are US people, and while that's fine, I'm looking for UK or European Timezone people. 
b) I'm not after joining a group the focus of which is to play tournaments even if they're non professional. 
c) While I probably could help with the organisation, I play this game on and off, and so committing to a large group wouldn't work for me. 
d) Also there's no way of knowing who's amazing, and who is just starting out. I'm trying to provide a common place for beginners/casual players to join. 
The impression that I get of an official MVC3 community is that the hardcore and serious will gather there to practice for tournaments. 

Cool mate, I had one guy respond and we fought 15 battles ending with me just winning by 2 matches, neither of us used any cheap tactics or spamming attacks. Great fun. I'll keep any eye out for ya. =D

I was reluctant to pick up this game, after seeing the reaction of SF4 to newcomers outside of couch co-op.
But I did pick up this game and after seeing its vibrant colours and insane gameplay, I dived right into the single player as well as offline multiplayer (around the house). 
I even felt confident enough to go online, and now I have won 9/19 battles, mostly through luck.
 
But more so than not, I would like to find some people on Xbox Live who are not overtly serious about this game, but would like to play and mess around with this excellent game. 
I would presume if you are ranked nth Lord, that you are serious about this game, in which case, good luck in the tournaments that you participate in. 
 
But this group will be for people who just wish to bask in the craziness of the game, have group lobbies, have fun and more importantly, create an atmosphere that makes MVC3 an enjoyable, fun, 'pop in the tray' game. 
No-one will be prejudiced for their skill, just as long as you have a willingness to just play and have fun. 
Previous games I have dabbled in are Soul Calibur 1, 2 and 4, as well as Blazblue CS just against normal AI, but learning this game has been fun and I want to help more people be able to enjoy this game. 
I am nowhere near an expert, but I would be willing to teach you what I know to the best of my ability, after all, I started out not being able to do more than a 2 hit combo.
 
So if you just want someone to play with who won't really care about winning or losing, but instead have an enjoyable and non frustrating time, send me a message and we can have a chat. 
 
In Summary - 
- Xbox 360 (Would prefer as close to GMT as possible) 
- English Speaking please. 
- If you are too good, you can still play, but use some different characters to give people a chance. 
- No uber competitive attitudes please (Take it to a tournament) 
- Helping and guiding new players (Take the time out to provide tips and feedback on other people's methods) 
- No griefing (It doesn't make you a better player, it makes the other person feel worse and then you have less people to play with). 
- No bashing on characters (Every character can be beaten with every other character.) 
- Regular play would be nice, because play with randoms feels a bit distanced most of the time. 
 
Send a message to me through Live with the word Giantbomb somewhere in there, and we'll chat. =D 
 
Hope to play you soon! 
 
Any comments about how I'm just bad at this game, finish Dead Space 2 on Hardcore mode, finish all 300 Levels of Super Meat Boy and finish STALKER Call of Pripyat on Veteran Difficulty and then we'll talk. 
 
After each week I'll write some stuff about how it's going, if this kicks off, hopefully attracting more people to this amazing game.
