Melbourne Reborn

Yeah, I should be free on Tuesday night next week /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

Btw, PM me which hotel you are staying.

 

I'll be busy during the day but I'll see what I can do about getting away early /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

Myke, plz pm me the details of where you're staying as well, along with a list of characters you play and how to beat them k? thx /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif

 

Can someone PM me for fun?
I feel like I'm missing out! hehe

 

As cool as it sounds to play (and get crushed) against a top VFer, I don't think I can make it on Tuesday night. I got so much uni work to do with something to hand in and a Ps driving test in the morning to boot.

Looks like removing the shrink wrap on my copy of VF5 will have to wait. ;p

Have fun guys.

 

Melbourne Aoi player here, just a shame Blue/Whitehouse took out VF4 awhile ago, was probably the only machine I ever saw.

I'm up for coming to any Melbourne VF gatherings, hopefully during the times when I'm not getting loads of uni work/assignments.

 

I also think it's time we had a formal tournament.

The idea I have is this: the tournament could be held at La Trobe University in Bundoora, where the Couch Warriors hold monthly ranking battles for various console fighting games.

If I can get in touch with the admin, Loki and he agrees, the venue is set, provided people like Renzuo can bring the equipment (I can still bring the game!). Who knows, maybe we can garner some interest from other players there as well to pick up VF5.

What do you guys think?

 

I'm all go for that idea. Sounds great! Hopefully it'll encourage others to give VF a try too.

 

I PM-ed Mike and that we are going to play at my home. I will be in the City around 6pm to meet up with Mike and direct him to my place. Only 5 mins away driving from his hotel.

For now there'll be around 5 or 6 players including myself and Mike that'll be coming to my place on Tuesday night. Lemme know if others are interested to come down and play as well.


Cheers.

 

Hey I've got work and class on Tuesday night but I can be in the city about 9:30pm so if you're gonna be playing til kinda late, I'd be interested in coming by if that's ok. If for nothing else, just to check out some high level players and try to pick your brains since I'm still pretty new to VF and don't play very often.

PM me location details and a phone number if it's cool.

 

The Couch Warriors idea sounds like a great idea. I'd be interested to see how far it goes to actually getting a seating and promoting VF5 to a bunch of new players.

BTW, Renzuo's place event will it be an unofficial tournament where you win nothing or will there be a surcharge for entering? j/k

Substandard, wished you could come. But P's test is more important than seeing Renzuo pawn people I guess. Goodluck man.

I'll be going straight to Renzuo's place from work on Tuesday I think. So maybe I can pick up a few ppl on the way. We'll see.

Aemeth. PM Renzuo for details of the venue or how he can contact you maybe.

LOOKING FORWARD to getting my ass whopped by a whole bunch of top VF5 players.

 

Tuesday

Hey guys, I might be a bit late tomorrow as I'm not supposed to finish until 6pm, and It takes me a while to get there. Basically if I can't get off in time I'll ring Jeff and let him know.

So are we having the traditional dinner before getting down to business? /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif might give anybody running late a little extra time.

 

Re: Tuesday

I'd love to go but I've a handful of assignments to do that are due in this week, so disappointed that I can't make it .

But definitely if theres a meeting again next time, I'll be sure to come down.

Hope you guys enjoy the gathering though! Just a shame I wasn't able to take part and witness some top class play. Cheers for the invite anyway .

 

Re: Tuesday

Yeah, have a good one. *cries*

 

post gathering thanks

Hey Just wanted to say thanks to all the guys that came down to play tonight (Tuesday) I had a blast.

Thanks to Myke for coming down and schooling us all /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif nice to see you again, hopefully it wont be another 4 years till the next time. Enjoyed watching your Kage matches, very entertaining stuff.

Big thanks to Jeff for offering up his house to the masses yet again I always forget to say thanks for that , your Shun and Lei were on as usual, your Jeffry is looking nice these days as well.

Thanks to Will for getting me that coke, I really enjoyed drinking it /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif see ya next week, go Lion!

Gabu, fast improving will be a force in the future for sure

Luke, didn't get to play you, maybe next time eh?

Substandard, Aemeath hope to see you guys in the future!

 

Re: post gathering thanks

Thanks for hosting the gathering Jeff and thanks for having me over. It was good to see some high level VF players or just some players other than Gabito. I didn't get to play everyone (only played Mike coz he was dominating and played Will only once I think) but I think I got some valuable experience.

Jeff, Mike, Will, Gab, Alex, other guys, nice meeting you or seeing you again. Hope to do it again some time. Jeff, I'll see what I can do about learning to play stick, thanks for the lend. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

 

Re: post gathering thanks

Oh man, so jealous of you all! Haha, sounds like you all had an awesome time.

I just remembered and forgot to tell you guys to record some matches, just to witness some play. But oh well, maybe next time eh?

I hope this tournament is able to run, that way we can have some regular gatherings.

 

Re: post gathering thanks

Yeah.. I'm glad you all had a great time, because I didn't.. due to some people's super uber stupidly precise control stick pushing/tapping/G-cancel (yes, it's you Mike). Haha. j/k

Thanks Jeff for having us all there. As always your Shun is a big headache. Boy, it was refreshing to see your Shun meet its match. Always fun playing against you.

Thanks Mike for beating Jeff's Shun. hehe. It was very interesting to see a Kage player and use it so well. I counted I think I had about 4 one-pixel-shoe-whiffs-face situations. DAMN! Hopefully sooner than later we can all get another get together going on.

Thanks Gab for teaching us how a Pad is supposed to be played. Improving fast and solidly. Hope we can play together more often. And I really need to learn how to play the Pad just to intimidate Mike, because he seems to want to get hit by someone using a Pad.

Thanks Alex for drinking that coke, did you feel dizzy afterwards? I had a little powder slipped into your drink. Was supposed to be Mike's but you asked for the coke! Fun playing you as always.

Thanks Luke for the fun games. Keep up the Stick training. Looking forward to future plays.

Who was that Pai player again? oh yea Andrew. Thanks for playing Dota upstairs and showing us your Pai.

Substandard, Aemeth.. There will be more get togethers. Stay in touch.

 

Re: post gathering thanks

Bugger... looks like im the last to post, ah well better late than never:

Thanks Jeff for hosting once again, Gei-Fei and Shoon annoying like always but im really hating Jeffry... i so got to work on throw breaks.

Alex... Aoi might be weakened but with the ease you were beating me it dont matter, very solid. Use Goh more against me, eh?

Will - didn't get to play with you much but would like to more. Your Lion was much more solid than last time IMO. I'll give you some pointers with pad next time lol.

Luke - next time get there earlier so i got enough to make a post about

And of course to Mike, thats the most solid play ive seen first hand. Im truly amazed at the throw breaking and fuzzying on defence while at the same time having an offensive game thats so dominating. Simply awesome.

Since after SBOQ theres nothing happening tekken-wise i'll be able to focus completely on VF for a while and hopefully give you guys a bit more a challenge.
