CAG PS3 Fighting Game Matchmaking Thread - Injustice out NAO!

I've been practicing hard with the Joystiq, and just yesterday I went back to the pad with a new button config that really lets me fight a lot better. I've been praticing my ass off. Hope to see it pay off soon.
 
[quote name='option.iv']Good games man. I wasn't holding back, I hope. I think I played this game too much. I had what felt like carpal tunnel in my left arm haha. No problem about the lag either.

Also good games today pf.

Also, I guess tourny mode was a big bust, seems like a lame version of Endless.

And Paco, I still don't get that "Homies over Shotos" thing. Care to educate me on that meme's origin?[/QUOTE]

It means Skills Over Scrubs. I made it. And I'm using it as my mark for every Shoto I beat.
 
Playing this game felt like a p90x workout. My eyes are burning hot like fiyah.

And GGs to everyone I played today.

edit - option, do you happen to have the replay where I try to make crappy attempt @ viper's sjc to ultra? (Details - Training room stage, Viper wore a green samus suit, and I lost the match to you) If not, it's cool. First attempt at it in a match. I just need it for my 'pokedex'.

Persistence pays off for the tazmanian devil ultra. I could never land that in a match.

Tournament next Weds night @ 7:00 PM PDT anyone?

CAG Super Street Fighter IV Online PS3 Tournament I

It will be single elimination. Participants will have to pick their character when they sign up and stick with that character through out the entire tournament. Participants will have until 2 hours before the tournament to submit all characters changes. Ultra changes between matches are allowed. There is no entree fee therefore there might be no prize except pride for dominating this tournament. If someone willing to donate small stuffs (PSN cards, game codes, etc...) for prizes that would be great. Matches will be done in Endless mode with me as the host. I will only invite the 2 participants for the fight to reduce the possibility of lag. All matches will be broadcast live through JTV for your enjoyment, and perhaps upload to youtube.

Tournament Rules:

- Single Elimination
- 1 Character for the whole tournament
- Best 3 out of 5 rounds
- Disconnect from lobby during match = Auto DQ
- No limitation on controller features (turbo, macros, etc...)

Sign up using this format
PSN: luan87us
Location: West Coast
Day Preferred: Wed
Character: Bison

Participants List (PSN/Character):
1. luan87us/Bison
2. ?

Hey is turbo allowed? If so I'm in.

But seriously, I would advise against putting up any physical/monetary prize, since there are so many factors that could be a problem (i.e. lag, etc.). If you want me to take care of the sign ups I could put it in the thread title and OP.

edit: @Esper: Just flipped through my replays and unfortunately I don't have it, was bumped out due to the sheer amount of games we played.

How you use your controller is up to you. It would be great if you could put this in OP and the title so more people will know. Prizes are just a little motivation, that's why I'm just asking for little stuffs but if there's nothing we can still play for pride =D. And I think we'll just using endless mode for the matches since it'll be easier to moderate. And I can only do this on weds night cuz I have class on thurs night so edit the thurs night part out.

Update: I updated the last reply so you can copy most of it in and edit it the way you want.
 
Why not roll fighting game tournaments like Americans?

2 rounds out of 3.
2 games out of 3.
Double elimination.

Or better yet, if it's under 8 players, do a round robin. 2 rounds out of 3. Top 2 play 2 games out of 3.

edit // Nevermind, you're going to stream it instead of having players pair up and playing their match.
 
Hey did you guys know theres no Gallery or Theater Mode in Super Street Fighter 4, why? My bro liked checking them out after I acquired them.

Yeah I noticed first day it came out. I guess with the $40 price tag they don't want to give you that =p You can watch them on youtube btw.
 
I discovered some riveting storyline when playing Super.

Gouken "Speaking of students...Ryu...

Akuma: "err...who...?"

Gouken: "Don't play dumb with me, Ryu has told me about your perverted obessions with him, just, stop, okay, he's not interested, and you're freaking him out...

Akuma: "Ugh, I was so close in turning him too...I tried Ken but it's clear he likes women more..."

luan, you're gonna have to establish some sort of communication between the participants. Also, some sort of reasonable schedule for the rounds would be good. i.e. 30min-1hour for round 1, 30 for round 2, etc.

Also, if there is a link to JTV if you're still streaming anything would be nice.
 
JTV has a chat box. It takes 30 second at most to sign up and start talking. And yeah we'll definitely have some schedule up. 7pm is just an estimate right now we'll probably start later than that. I'll try to get more detail out on tuesday. If you have any good idea just put it in option. I don't mind having someone help me organize this so I can focus more on keeping record and streaming it for other CAG to enjoy. Stream might not be high quality cuz my upload rate sucks T.T but hopefully it'll be watchable at least. Cuz i'm using separate connection for streaming and my ps3 so it'll be streaming at the max bitrate my internet can take.
The link to the JTV channel is www.justin.tv/luan87us
It's actually set up with CAG theme lol

I was thinking if there someone we can get CheapyD or an admin put this in the announcement or something like that so it'll catch more participants. Or perhaps we should see how this one turn out first and plan the future ones better.
 
All of you, there's a google spread sheet in the first page of the topic. Please post your info there.
 
It's signups for the tournament, I dont' think there's a spreadsheet for it.

I'm attending a graduation so I can't really play, or else I would.

Looks like you'll have 8 ppl, you might do double elimination.
 
PSN: ask me
Location: North Carolina
Day Preferred: Tues-Friday *prefer late afternoon/night.
Character: Cammy


Couldn't decide on the character it came down to Cammy or Cody. Either way I'll get raped.

I didn't know it was today. Good thing I checked the forums.

*signs onto PSN* :cool:

I'm going to go ahead and assume I'm in already since I signed up beforehand.
 
I don't even think luan87us knows it's today. Well, I need one more person to make it an 8 man tournament. If not, I'll join.

I'll put up the bracket in a bit. And in the meantime create a PSN chat room.

edit: Ok, so we're missing a couple people and decided to postpone the tourny 30 min.

I'll have the brackets up by then with whoever has shown up.

Again, here is the form to sign up. Another 15 min or so. http://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?formkey=dDhKZGxGU3R2Z0VqMWxqMDF1RzE4bEE6MQ

Great games everyone. I think it was decent for an impromptu tournament. Appreciate everyone's participation and I hope to see you all join again. Again, congrats to bullish23 for winning the FGMT's first SSFIV tournament.
 
Yeah, good games everyone. We pulled it off despite some minor hiccups here and there. Hopefully, we can start running these tourneys on a somewhat consistent basis in the near future.
 
Congrats to Bullish and thanks to Opcion cuatro for running the impromptu tourney.

*edit - wtf, couldn't join endless invites from esper and beef and I couldn't find any matches at all in ranked.
 
GGs to everyone and congrats to bullish. Enjoy paco's yaoi collection. Props to option for holding the tourney down and not canceling it.

Venus fly trapped into U2. Automatic replay saved on someone's list...

Gimme a heads up, I may be able to be of some assistance, what little I can give anyway.
