    @thegoldencat7: Combine lag and superior opponents and you get superior lag opponents. If there is any kind of lag then I presume that they play with that all the time, therefore meaning they are more used to it. So if I lose it isn't because they are better, just superior @ LAG fighter IV :)
     
    It makes me feel better.

    I think I'll just add everyone today. I've plateaued so much that I'm struggling to get anywhere at the moment. Those that fight me, prepare to have destruction laid upon you! 
     
    ...And by that I mean: watch me repeat the same 3 moves over and over again until you can't stand it anymore.

    A merry HypeMas for us all. I should be getting back online regularly again now that holiday stuff has passed. Hope I wasn't too out of practice to at least make it through the first round. Come on instinctual press some buttons technique, make me like not last.

    I'm almost absolutely sure my gf got me the TE stick for xmas. If thats the case (then not only am I majorly lucky, but) when it comes to the tournament I'm going to to be stumbling all over the screen trying to hk you into oblivion. Might forfeit learning how to use it until after me thinks.

    @MikeFightNight: Sure do man, I still can't face a Cammy without getting panicked. 
     
    baelrrogg and I are in the midst of our set just now. Sagat v Gouken respectively...
     
    Edit: After a hiccupp disconnect during the first match, I won it 2 - 0. Good games; we both made a few mistakes though. If you'd have landed you're ultra after the ex tiger uppercut the round would have been yours.

    @PantyshotMQN: Just checked his page. He only has one post, so if he doesn't get in touch soon he forfeits I guess. Obviously, everyone else has till the 7th. If you don't manage to play him, would you rather I subbed in one of the guys who wanted to play after it was full, or just put you through by default?

    I am totally against the idea of someone getting a freeride when the alternative is a possible sub in especially for the first round. I elect SquirtleSquad and his Saikyo Powers of doom to take his place.

    I would second that. Replacements should probably be taken in order of whoever missed out 1st though (i.e posted 1st when the tourney was full)

    Yup, that's fine with me. InfiniteState was the first person after all the spaces have been filled, so PM'ing him just depends on what days PantyShot is free. If you only have a few days I'd suggest trying to get in contact with Alpha once more, and if he doesn't respond quickly, let me know here and I'll switch up the brackets.

    I agree. I wouldnt want to go through the first round by default without contest. I'll try one more time whenever i see him on. If i dont see him at any time close to the deadline, i'll reply here again to see if we can find a replacement. Im usually free at night btw.... usually.

    Okay, Alpha and I did our round and i lost 2-1. 
    It was a tight game all around. But his Sakura took advantage of every whiff and mistake i did. So mad props to him.

    Sorry for taking so long to show up guys... i was kinda busy with this job thing, but anyway. i was so happy to get the message from pantyshot.. i thought i wasn't gonna be qualified. Anyway it was a good fight, it came down to the final round and everything. Again, I'm sorry and i'll be ready for the next one.

    @PantyshotMQN:  Sure thing! lol i used to play Ryu, but got so sick of everyone using him. i picked up Sak a few months ago and never looked back. If anyone else wants to go a few rounds, just add me and i'll be glad to play. My PSN ID is the same as my SN here. Also I'm on Eastern Time (USA) That's GMT-5 right?

    Mistaaaa Stang, did you get a PS3 for christmas then? My brother did, and reckons he could beat your Ken with his scrubby rose.

     Yep those were some good matches... My execution seems to go down the drain as soon as I'm under pressure however. Did the up and down dance a bit too often lol. Hopefully i do better against fellow losers.

    @Stang:  I've seen videos of your Ken, and you play as well as a good friend of mine (which is very well, actually). So, give me a couple of rounds, and i can figure you out. What i kinda fear is your mix-up game, so you got something on me there.

    @PantyshotMQN: Yea, if you can block my nonsense when you wake up and know how to defend properly after I hit you with an ex tatsu combo, you are good to go. That is all I have really. Cammy's are tough, I really don't have any plan of attack when playing against her. I kind of go into turtle mode....that is basically suicide with Ken. How about you buy yourself a 360 and learns me the matchup!

    @Stang: Funny you should say that...
     
    Seems loads of people have a problem fighting Cammy. I'm pretty sure she's meant to be one of my better match-ups, and when I stop trying to be so offensive she is, but her game totally throws me off. MikeFightNight and I had some matches a couple of weeks ago, and I could handle most of what he threw at me, but as soon as I saw her blonde mug on the character select I shit myself.

    Bail! I've been called out. Dude, if he was my brother I'd probably be a lot better than I am.  
     
    Anyone have any tips on kara throws (specifically Goukens)? I tried incorporating them into my game more, but it honestly pushes him about 1/4 character distance. Useful for occasionally catching them out, but not much more. Totally need a teleport.

    @Ironknight: Hey, I'm pretty sure you've just been busy with regular life stuff or whatever and just haven't checked your messages. I left a PM on both GB and PSN but you still haven't been able to get back to me. We still need to do our match before the deadline. Only reason for this post is to show Geteveryone that I am trying to get ahold of you and get our match done. Mostly on at late afternoon for only a couple of hours, GMT-8. Just finished my play session for today, I hope to see you online tomorrow.

    I am pulling out of the tourney. This probably entails an explanation so here goes. Looking back on this winter break, I probably could have played alot more SF4 and gotten better in the process. I even had my friends over and we played over 100 rounds in total. But I guess for me the thing with any game I play, when it comes to that point where it's like I have to set aside and arrange time to play a game, it isn't as much fun. Don't get me wrong, I DO want to play SF4 and get better at it, I realize I've barely scratched the surface, but I want to do it at my own pace. 
     
    So just a heads up, I'm gonna be adding the people who signed up for this tournament as friends. Also I only log onto PSN to play SF4, so if you see me online you can send me a fight request and i'll join in tops 1 minute (maybe if i'm still in a round). So we can play like first to ten or something, that would be cool.

    Hm. I seem to have noticed that I didn't put my PSN ID up. It's Marukon. I barely pay attention to my PSN messages so I'm sorry if I don't get to you right away.

    @AURON570: If you're sure, dude. Its hardly the most serious competition though; I'm not a high standard player (though I can't speak for a lot of the people here). If you still want to drop out I'll invite someone else to take your place.

    Yeah, if you have the time to play just play. It's not a Pro Tourney or anything, meant to be fun.
     
    However, having just looked at the brackets if you and I both won our 1st round matches then we would play each other in the 2nd round, so maybe it's best just to quit now ;)

    @AURON570:  Duder, Don't quit man. Its not liek this is a real tourney where you gotta pay an entry fee and money is on the line. Don't let the stress of it being a tournament get to you.

    It's cool man. Send me a message of a time when you can play. I'm not taking this seriously and it doesn't seem like anyone else is either. This is just for fun.

    @Keeng: Just posting on this topic to show that I'm trying to get hold of Keeng. Have sent him a PS3 and Giantbomb message recently. I'm available most of the time atm so just let me know when u can play (not sure what timezone he's in?) and we'll sort it :)
