    I'm currently in Germany having an insane time thanks to Australia's performance in the World Cup so far. During the upcoming scheduled days off in the proceedings I'll be going to London for two nights.

    I arrive this Wednesday, and my Wednesday night is currently open, so I'm wondering if any locals would like a few games of VF.

    I understand that Wednesday night might be a bit awkward for some, so please post to let me know if you'll make it.

    Oh, and directions/address to the arcade would be much appreciated. I'm staying in Regent's Park for reference.

    Cheers.

    Wow the famous myke is coming to london. Good thing the good sticks are installed. I'll make it to this one since you're coming. Have a few games with ya. I'll try and drag arch angel too and I'm sure bareknuckle will come along for the beatings ...I mean ride too.

    Seeya there!

    oh and as for directions to the place, if you know how to get to GOODGE STREET underground/Tube station. The place is literally a few feet away from the entrance to the station. Exit the station turn right, walk a few feet and you'll see a place called Casino, Can't really miss it since it has machines playing. Once in there, head downstairs and hopefully someone from VFDC UK will be there.

    Thanks fellas.

    I'm not adverse to any house parties, but I do prefer FT over Evo /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

    If we can do both, that'd be even better! Either way, I'm looking forward to finally meeting to London crew.

    It’s a shame; had this been set to happen a couple of months back I would have definitely crawled out of my hole to greet you. As it is I’m afraid I’ve got too many issues (being absolutely broke is only one of them) to attend to this month and the next to make the gathering.

    Ironically, Regent’s Park isn’t too far from me. I recommend a walk there in the morning if you can manage it, especially in this weather here in London. It’s a beautiful place…

    All I can do is hope you have a pleasant stay and again express my sincerest apologises for my lack of attendance. Have a good one.

    I just came back from a intense ft session at casino, I guess I can wave my bjj class on wednesday for some more ft /versus/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
    I'll try and get the usual regulars to turn up midweek too.
    yeah casino is not too hard to find, once you get to totenham court road (All the electronic shops) Goodge street tube station is further down to the left and it's right next to it, or if you see a sciencetology place/shop first it's next to that.

    (If you need numbers in case you you'll get lost just pm, or irc).
    Shame ironmike has to go back up north today otherwise a house session afterwards would probably been on /versus/images/graemlins/confused.gif , maybe we can do somethign at ezone? I'll try speaking to hatim when I get a chance, it's short notice but we might be able to hold an rb lol

    p.s People will probably be there at casino from 5 onwards due to work etc /versus/images/graemlins/laugh.gif, oh and dont' be put off by the ghetto look and the carpet, people are quite friendly /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

    thanks oli~~

    sure, im up for FT, but im not very confident with those sticks yet~~ i have to admit /versus/images/graemlins/blush.gif

    i reckon everybody can warm up and just chill out in a house session / rb envornment, or something~ and manz wont run out of pocket money , LOL~~

    more setups mabye, less turn waiting / 3 credits etc~

    cool gathering. Nice to see the legendary myke in person and in action. Watched some nice matches.


    I only played twice cos I'm still new to FT's new moves for the characters. Plus the sticks were loose and I thought the hori sticks were bad. I recorded one match with Myke Vs Ryan Hart. Also took a picci of Myke with Eddy.

    http://www.ragingsilver.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/vf/myke.zip
    You have to open the video file in quicktime player to view the match. Not very good quality cos it's my camera phone but it's just about viewable.

    I was gonna play, but I allowed it because I thought id'd be best to avoid Kage at my current level of play. :/

    It was finally nice to meet Myke. Plus a really nice guy to boot! /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif
    Myke your kage is really strong and I would look forward to playing you again. Hope you have a safe trip home and a good time in Germany mate.

    whey~! we had a visitor in london~!, lol

    sorry i came late y'all, i tried to get as much games in as i could but the wait was longish~

    goods:
    Myke you have a very strong kage~ infact i spent the whole night trying to read it and learn FT kage haha~ thanks for the whooping, i hope i can become a better challenge next time we meet ~ but it's good to add another great challenge on my list of improvements~ i really wanted to travel to USA last april, because there's so many challengers i want to face before we have to start all over again in VF5~

    nice guy~ and great VF player, thanks for comming by~!!

    everybody else~ u suck, "go back to school~!" hahaha

    bads:
    i felt the sticks really let me down sometimes which also sounds like a lame excuse~ i think i need to practice during the week with those~ i couldnt really fuzzy movement~ which made me either fully stand or fully crouch too often~

    i also lack FT experience~ :p ~
