Will definitely be there tomorrow at opening.
Edit: also, like to drive down to MLG and split a hotel but I'd be leaving after work at 6pm on friday and driving back up to be at work monday afternoon, so either leaving sunday late at night or monday morning. Looked it up and hotel reservations...
I won't be able to make it out to the 14th but I would this weekend, although I do think sharing the tournament with another game like Skullgirls would be better than having it just to SCV, more people, get some people playing both games, all that good stuff.
Also, props to Gamecenter for...
Being a decent human being shouldn't have to be an annoying behavioral change.
When a scrub (such as myself) gets blasted, I get ragged on for being a shitty player. Considering the high proportion at least that I've noticed of LGBT members in SCV, when they get blasted, they don't get...
First, what is there to defend? I mean, trash talking is trash talking and is part of the fun of the FGC, but this wasn't even part of a match, it was just sexual harassment, pure and simple, and justifying it by saying it's part of the community. If there is anyone who honestly believes this...

Cheapest joystick that is good is going to run you around $60, and thats the MadCatz SE, you can find them on craigslist/SRK trading outlet and other places that deal with secondhand products.
Another option are the MadCatz Fightpads, those run about $15-20 used, $40 new.
The Hori Fightpad...
Think of your num pad as directionals, 214 B means Down, DownBack, Back, a reverse quartercircle. Also you need the just frame on the B in order to pull it off.
I have to agree with Alex that Southtown is a bit too far and a less desirable venue, at least to make it on a regular basis 100% of the time. Also Sundays don't work as well for a lot of people I'm guessing, since work/school for people on Monday morning. The Gamecenter meeting was such a blast...
San Jose, right near San Francisco. And yes I did post in that thread, before here, I get lost easily sometimes. I could have been more eloquent but I think I got my point across!
Hello everyone. Been lurking for awhile, decided to finally take the plunge. I've been playing the SC series since 2, only started taking it seriously since 4! Currently attending San Jose State in the Bay Area, just ordered one of those shmexy new SC5 sticks and ready to actually get to the...
I think the point of my post may have been lost. There's other communities like Shoryuken and I assume SC5 streams when the game is released. I was specifically talking about 8wayrun. If you want a community and game to grow, you don't tell casuals/noobs to just get over it and get a thicker...
I have been lurking on fighting game boards for the past month or two getting hyped up for SC5, been playing the SC series since II and finally decided to get serious about it, bought a stick, and was trying to find ways to check out my local scene (San Jose). This attitude of "Fuck casuals and...
