If it's too far it's too far, but being out of practice is never a good reason not to make it to locals. Now is always a good time to get back into hanging out with everyone.
My Xbox hasn't been plugged in and I've been dealing with college stuff man. Framingham was already a far enough drive even when I had a car.
I already said it being too far away was a good reason.
It's not a tournament. It doesn't matter if you are winning or not. You go, have fun, make friends, and play a video game you all enjoy together. Having the mentality "I need to win" for casually playing and hanging out isn't the way to go. Supporting the scene is fantastic, but it's more about hanging with friends. For me, at least, any time I went to GU my thoughts were never "I have to support my game/I need to win", it was "wow, this is cool, I'm going to have fun with everyone through a game I really enjoy".
Oh hey while I'm in here I should make this post: GU Friday night fight nights are officially up and running once more. The address is 1245 Worcester St Suite 1094, Natick, Massachusetts. It's in between the California Pizza Kitchen and American Girl. Here's a picture:
Well the GU sign was made in MS paint but you get the idea. That's basically what it looks like.
If you are coming from Boston, I believe the closest T stop is West Natick on the Worcester line. Anyone who comes in that way I can give you a ride the rest of the way to GU, it's like 5 minutes or something.
I dunno what's good with streaming yet. At the old GU we had a splitter on one end and an ethernet cable that was run all the way through the ceiling to our area. I need to figure out where the Internet comes out of in this place.
Tagging everyone I can think of: @Zidiane @Natezer @Deer @dMags @Icky @LordCeno @joshb911 @DaydreamingSorc @Omnyx @Pickles @Fluffy_Ducks @Tommer @Uzumakihero I'm sure I forgot a lot of people, if you think of them please tag them for me thanks
Don't think about it like that. Not matter what, whenever I've been to GU I've had a great time. There's plenty of other things to do besides play SG as well, and even when you do play, if you get beat handily, everyone there is willing to help you get better or explain what you can do to deal with the stuff you're having a hard time with. The MA scene is really a great bunch of people. I always enjoy coming out when I can find the time.
Its okay. I suck.
Man it's cuz the teenage magic had worn off.

Its like going to the old location, just a bit further down Rt. 9.
Myself, Deer, Ceno, Tommer, and Waifu were there, we also had about 3-4 other people who I think main other games but popped in to play Skullgirls for a bit. I played like 30 games with one of those guys, I really need to learn his name at some point but I'm worried it's past the point of no return and it would be too weird if I asked him, you know?
Sometimes you have to do it. Hell, I asked AJ's name after regularly talking to him for like 2 or 3 months.Myself, Deer, Ceno, Tommer, and Waifu were there, we also had about 3-4 other people who I think main other games but popped in to play Skullgirls for a bit.

Zaf called me out on it one time, he was just like "you don't know who I am do you" and I was like "no .__. "
