Really need more participants. Join even if you're going to get bodied.

This, this! Invite friends, share with other communities, everyone is welcome. I'll be sharing with a few communities myself to see if there's any interest.

I'm really thinking about joining the MBAACC tourney, even though I haven't played it in well over a year and still suck at it :V

I'll look into it. I'm way out of practice in everything, the netplay setup in my current apartment is still not optimal, and my schedule isn't very forgiving right now, but if I can work it out I'll probably play if you really need people.

I'm still waiting for Xbox brackets although I have a feeling it is not going to happen. :ohdear: I can't participate on my laptop because

I don't have the games
I don't have any money to buy the games.
I played Skullgirls on my Laptop as part of the free trial and it lags horribly.

If you can gather up some players to play a small Xbox tournament I'd be willing to host it! Trouble is, most people here appear to play on PC. Let me know if you find some people who'd play!

Amraphenson · « **Reply #187 on:** January 25, 2014, 12:08:09 AM »

I'll join Skullgirls.

KaiserKnuckle · « **Reply #188 on:** January 25, 2014, 06:13:50 AM »

Hopefully this is good news; I got in touch with a FTG streaming friend (NYGamer) of mine to see if he could tell people, he said he'll put a link up by sunday during his next SKG stream. (I also just noted him about the MBAACC one before posting.)

I would like to join the SG side of the tourney, but I'm in the EU timezone, so I don't know how that will mesh with what you have planned.

Jmyster · « **Reply #190 on:** January 27, 2014, 12:41:15 AM »

I'd be willing to join Melty if I can get the multiplayer working again. I haven't played in a while so I'll get demolished, but I don't mind.

Anyone's welcome to play, it's not region limited - no one has told me a reason as to why regions should be separated.

He's asking what time the tournament is going to held. He can't be up playing fighting games in the AM hours on a Monday, so it would have to be held in early afternoon or something from our time zone.

Oh wow my advertising did a lot wow thats amazing

Couple of quick questions regarding Skullgirls:

Is spectating possible?

If it is, would anyone like to stream the games from the tournament for us?

If anything, I bet that NY could also help if he has the time. But imma check on this Friday.

Gpop · « **Reply #196 on:** January 30, 2014, 02:36:50 AM »

What time does it start again on Saturday?

I might be able to join the Melty tourney actually.

Hisoutensoku is on Saturday, Melty and Skullgirls are Sunday. I'll be deciding the times later today, hold tight!

This would be good! I would try streaming it but I don't even have the game.

Gpop · « **Reply #198 on:** January 30, 2014, 05:14:56 AM »

Oh

If it's on Sunday then it's a no-go for me because work lol

Shimatora · « **Reply #199 on:** January 30, 2014, 11:24:52 PM »

Okay! Times are finalised.

Sunday the 2nd of February:
14:00UTC - Melty Blood
19:00UTC - Skullgirls

Be sure to spread the word and let everyone know. Please turn up earlier than the times noted! If you turn up late, you might be removed from the tournament!

Sign-ups will be open until I start the tournament.

NOTE FOR SKULLGIRLS:

Seeing as I know none of the players or how to seed them, I will open up with a RR tournament and END with either a Double Elimination tournament, using the RR results for seeds. Should be fun!

Amraphenson · « **Reply #200 on:** January 31, 2014, 02:01:11 AM »

By UTC, are we talking +-0:00 here?
edit: fuck it we melty too

KaiserKnuckle · « **Reply #201 on:** January 31, 2014, 02:26:30 AM »

Good news, NY said he would stream the SKG tourney!

He wants to know if anyone should commentate or not, though.

He also want's to know what Amra said if it's not 7pm.

I've had people complain when I've used GMT and UTC before so I just ~~flip a coin and choose one~~ stick with UTC now for consistency purposes.

Fightest · « **Reply #204 on:** January 31, 2014, 09:57:02 AM »

Okay, that gives me two days to practice enough so as not to embarrass myself on the internet.

Amraphenson · « **Reply #205 on:** February 02, 2014, 07:06:44 PM »

hey dorks the Skullgirls tourney is going on RIGHT NOW GET IN IRC JESUS

Jmyster · « **Reply #206 on:** February 02, 2014, 08:58:00 PM »

Sorry I couldn't make it. I had to watch my nieces.

Though I do want to ask: How many of you are going to pick up/have BlazBlue Chrono Phantasma? I tried to convince my friend to play Melty Blood again and failed, but he still plays BB. I'd love to have some groups when the game is out in NA.

Stuffman · « **Reply #207 on:** February 02, 2014, 09:10:45 PM »

Rou takes second in Melty (by 1 point!!), Amra wins Skullgirls.

Yay for MotK not being free??

KaiserKnuckle · « **Reply #209 on:** February 02, 2014, 11:15:23 PM »

Gratz to Amra/Roukan/Resku!

Stupid not getting up for me, hopefully there's a next time as Shima said.
