Think the new year would be a good time to travel but it could cost quite a bit for train tickets and it'll be peak holiday season. That London UK Ranking meet looks really tempting. /versus/images/graemlins/tongue.gif It'll be nice to see how we compare to other players in the UK as we've all been improved quite a bit.

If there is a trip to other cities in the holiday too bad I can't make it. I will go back to China for one month during this Xmas. One month without VF>_<, I think my VF play will be shit when I come back /versus/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Stroppa's Brad actually started looking pretty mean near the end there though.

Re: 'scottish crew'

Actually, on the subject of RPG's, I might pick me up Breath of Fire V tomorrow, I'm in a big rpg mood at the moment. You'll like Shadow Hearts I'm sure. Nobody wants my xenosaga it seems /versus/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Anyway, I'll be back in the house by 1pm tomorrow, so you guys are welcome to start showing up from 1.30 I would say.

Formats?

I thought maybe we could do that shit characters only tournament in the afternoon if we've the time. In the evening if Stephen comes, I think it'll be best to try and let everyone have an equal number of games, so maybe we could adopt the system we had at stephen's house that night where one person plays everyone then hands the stick over and just do that continuously or have it so it's a best of 3 or 5 situation against everyone. Suggestions welcome though.

Also, I don't know what you want to do about food, I'd be willing to split a take-away again.

uh...

I have 2 xbox pads, one of them is an 'S'.
plus 2 GC pads, ein schwarz und ein purpurrot.

I'll be in the same boat soon, from the 8th december I'll be working 7 days a week 12 hours a day practically, so no VF for me for 3-4 weeks /versus/images/graemlins/frown.gif

*breathe*

 

Re: 'scottish crew'

Since I've only got a PAL ps2, I guess I have to wait for the PAL release for Xenosaga, curse to Namco /versus/images/graemlins/mad.gif

I'd agree with the shit-character-only tournament idea. I would use wolf, or maybe sarah. Don't know who's Faded's worst, since he uses so many characters.

 

Re: 'scottish crew'

hmm...

kage>goh>jeff>akira>wolf>aoi?

I'd use brad or akira.

Dark would use Sarah probably.

 

Re: 'scottish crew'

I'd probably say Jacky is my worst right now. But I don't mind using Aoi though I can't really remember how to play her. Of the characters I actually play properly I'd say Akira is my worst but that would probably be unfair.

Li should use his Pai. /versus/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Afraid I'm not going to make it tonight guys. Work is a bitch right now and I need to catch on some sleep.

Will need to make a big effort to play more VF in the new year, and to organise some more gatherings.

Have fun.

 

Re: 'scottish crew'

Fun was had.

Highlights...

Faded's Aoi winning the 'team edinburgh shitty characters tournament'. Some very swish Aoi stuff there. I'll post full results when I'm finished playing games and stuff /versus/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Plus the top spin doubles...

Myself and Li won once, and Faded and Dark won once, it was far too tense to play a decider though /versus/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

hmmm...

Dark, any chance of that flat being available for wednesday?

 

Re: 'scottish crew'

It should be available for Wednesday but I won't be able to play that late as I have an early start on Thurdays morning. Next Friday would be a good day buy I don't know if you'll be free next week.

Re: 'scottish crew'

So is this week coming going to be the last week before we stop for 2003?

We should do the original main character tourny again then.

Might not be, unless you want a break?

Either way yeah, we should get another tourney going.

There are no seat no nothing, but they will be getting sofas sometime. Beds are getting purchased on Tuesday. What day will you have to know by to see if Friday works out or not?

 

Re: 'scottish crew'

Nah I'm not after a break just trying to get my schedule for the upcoming weeks sorted out.

I think some more topspin should definitely be slotted into the proceedings at some point.

Li seemed pretty keen on mariokart as well.

Friday's not going to work for me /versus/images/graemlins/frown.gif I just can't afford anymore time off work until after christmas. VF has practically cleaned me out the last few months with all the time off.

I'm all for top spin, maybe some singles matches /versus/images/graemlins/tongue.gif Doubles are intense... /versus/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Anyway, if we do get the chance to use this flat I can supply a TV. If there's carpet down or flooring then sitting on the floor is fine by me, though I could maybe bring a couple of stools. Providing I can get Sam to give me a lift with them. /versus/images/graemlins/cool.gif

 

Re: 'scottish crew'

*off topic* So who was the other player besides yourself on PG2 last night? Had some fun games.

*on topic* Let me know if anything is happening Friday evening as it might be a nice way of calming my pre-flight travel nerves.

 

Re: 'scottish crew'

hong ning?

that's anthony.

Good fun on PGR2 last night though.

 

Re: 'scottish crew'

if you're meeting up with anyone on friday for VF could you maybe pass on my PN03 to them stephen? would be appreciated, unless you're still playing it.

I'm a bit confused /versus/images/graemlins/confused.gif, is this wednesday's session in Dark's place, or is it in stroppa's house as usual?

To Ryan: thanks again for shadow hearts, beautiful game. There were tears in my eyes when I heard those familiar chinese tones

 

Re: 'scottish crew'

I can't see anything happening on friday due to lakc of an appropriate venue.

Shame as I'd have liked to show Stephen the mad Aoi skillz I was pumping out on friday. /versus/images/graemlins/tongue.gif


Stroppa/Jackeh - This would probably be a pain in the arse but if you feel like being bothered at any point would you mind PMing me or posting here everybody's rank, win/loss numbers and win % for their various characters.

I'd just like to compare them to the stats for the matches where we recorded wins. Want to see if their is any marked difference when folks know their results are being kept.
