lolol no, just in that section to save space on the flyer :)

We're still doing the 3v3 tourney and grudge matches.

 

[keninblack]

I can't imagine I'll be able to commentate. I'm down to PG-13 it up, i've gotten better at it but i'm probably not on the list of peeps which is fine haha.

I do hope people bring the A game though <3


Also what grudge matches do you guys have in mind? I have 3 lined up and was trying to find a slot or place to do them but I guess we out here?

 

[Mike_Z]

@thehadou
I guess I owe you two drinks.

 

[alexpi]

2 roofie coladas, coming right up

 

[thehadou]

Hey everyone!

Wanted to stop in and say hi now that the schedule is out. I'm hoping the volume of pools, special events, and Top 8 placement makes everyone feel like their emotional investment in Combo Breaker has been worthwhile. I know I appreciate the support you all have shown, and its even helped my personal feelings towards the tourney on some rough days. I've very hopeful that ending the busiest day of the weekend in the venue with SG on the Main Stage turns more/new heads way.

Please don't roofie me, I can't afford the downtime that weekend.

 

[keninblack]

In terms of exhibitions we goooots.

NCV vs Luna FT5 or 7??

MWisk vs MrPeck FT5 or 7??

Cloud vs Skar FT7

Cloud vs Skar FT7

I think it'd be great to have those on SNS :)

If they're all confirmed, let me know and I'll put 'em on the list.

 

[NCV]

ft7, at least for the top billing. more games is more fun, at least if it's not a blowout.

 

[keninblack]

If time constraints are fine with all being FT7 thats fine.

Time constraints its all FT5 cept Skar Cloud.

They all confirmed on twitter we in there <3 I rounded it up yaash <3

 

[Mike_Z]

Aww, I don't get any grudge matches? I wanna be mad at everyone.

 

[Broseidon Rex]

Aww, I don't get any grudge matches? I wanna be mad at everyone.

'Mike Z vs the Bombastic Forum Poster" or "Why I'm nerfing/buffing/doing nothing to Character X and can still beat you easily"

Sounds good to me, we've got our matches. If you don't mind, Pat, can you be my cowboy <3 and help me round up them lil doggies when the time comes? muah muah

 

[Negus Eyoel]

Aww, I don't get any grudge matches? I wanna be mad at everyone.

Maybe if you didn't blatantly sandbag basically every time you played on stream then more people would've considered putting you on the lineup :^)

NOTTA PROOOBLEM <3

Even sandbagging I get further than you, though. <3

 

[CaioLugon]

 

[Negus Eyoel]

i mean if you want to brag about beating me when i clearly wasn't at my best i mean sure. but if you had to take a 5 hour bus ride on 3 hours of sleep and the bus is too uncomfortable to sleep in then i'm sure you wouldn't be able to play at your best either. i wonder what would've happened if you came to your originally assigned pool at evo....

 

[keninblack]

Johns into TO shade combo. Optimal.

 

[NCV]

so what you're saying is mike z vs. negus is now sns main event

 

[Broseidon Rex]

This HAS to be the main event now.
Mike Z vs Negus Eyoel

 

[keninblack]

It can be before Skar and Cloud, better players deserve main card.

 

[Kazmer]

I'll do a ft5 against the CPU. WHO KNOWS WHO WILL WIN???

 

[Negus Eyoel]

that's fine i'm not really interested in running this on stream anyways. more of a chance i'll play against real mike if i'm off stream anyways

 

[BGCallisto]

Hey guys, popping in since I'll be carrying a chunk of pools on Friday, and top 16/SNS. Re: profanity on intro songs/commentary; intro songs will be piped over the PA, it doesn't have to be a radio edit but don't roll in with IDFWU or anything.

I personally might have slightly more strict language rules for my stream than the event's; it's not going to be puritanical or anything but I'll talk to commentators regarding it when time rolls around.

Great job with the turnout numbers, and glad to see you guys get some shine on the main stage for top 8. :3

 

[skull person]

So I just got on the Internet and suddenly I signed up for a grudge match against someone I have no beef with and have played once or twice and apparently confirmed that I wanted to do that via Twitter?

I mean I hate to be that guy who lets everyone down and kills the community but I'd really rather watch a more meaningful match.

 

[dekillsage]

its not a grudge match tho its just a match

 

[NCV]

I don't think there's any real grudges in SG at the moment that I'm aware of since we're all a bunch of softies

 

[dekillsage]

you're a softy ohhhh

 

[BGCallisto]

WOW nvc/sage ft30 we going late on saturday

 

[dekillsage]

That set will take like 35 minutes loool

 

[FuLLBLeeD]

Otherwise known as a FT5 in SF4

keninblack said "skar," and I just assumed that was you. No?

 

[keninblack]

O fuck I assumed you were in the know ;___; hahaha whoops

Well do you want to do it? Its just a set for like a set, no "beef" needed. Only one with actual beef is Mike and Negus and its like weenie hut jr type beef.

 

[Mike_Z]

tfw not even being mad is enough.

 

[POS Industries]

Rooting for Mike to make top 8 btw.

 

[Yaya]

Rooting for 8 randoms to make Top 8 so all this talk about entrance music was pointless and nobody has any idea what to play

 

[keninblack]

tfw not even being mad is enough.

You're always mad its expected.

Its like me saying i'm not flaccid, like yeah and Peacock has amazing damage, and the grass is green.

Note to self: Grab 8 random tracks just in case.

 

[Kazmer]

Every rando's entrance music will be Jumper by Third Eye Blind

it is decided
