I have both but am

A) tired.
B) awful.

If you'd like to play another time and maybe put up with me shaking off rust/learning not to suck for a while then I'm game.

and ST is like the only game GGPO will let us play Bob!

Oh SuperNiceDog's doing it again dude.

the GGPO guys talked about a latency patch they discovered recently (was made the WOW community but works great on GGPO as well) that has something to do with changing your computer accepts online game packets or something. I dunno. but supposedly it works awesome. I installed it on my end already, seems safe and legit. maybe if we both do so we can actually play 3s online.

--
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=npHDxSvwCE0

I know exactly what it is.

and have it installed...for WoW

Dunno how to do it for GGPO.

--
Oh SuperNiceDog's doing it again dude.
SuperNiceDog, you ain't no pimp dude

I think if you have it installed you should be good. now that I've got it installed as well it should be better.

we also both have to turn off aero because that'll mess up one of our frame rates and desync our session. learned that from them too. so with the patch combined with turning off Aero on both ends I expect great things.

I was reading Sirlin's design notes for character rebalancing in HDR. I went straight for the heart of the matter that was on my mind after last night - Vega.

He talked about how Vega's wall dive shenanigans are abusive and how Vega doesn't need them to win. So he changed it so that wall dive hits don't knock down. Cool stuff.

http://www.sirlin.net/articles/street-fighter-hd-remix-vega.html

--
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=npHDxSvwCE0

Ironically, all that change did was prove how much he did need them. He's a much less attractive pick, and I've barely ever seen anyone other than Tokido do anything with him in HDR. The Fake Wall Dive does next to nothing for him, as Sirlin himself even mentioned in the article.

when does this stuff start

Don't worry guys, I have all the clubs

So how did Lopen do?

--
Xbox GT: PrivateBiscuit1
Down with Zhang. Let there be Biscuit!

he won a game in losers.

--
Dr voltchball - best in the world.

A game or a match?

Because if Board 8 has, collectively, managed to win one match at Evo, that makes us the best social board on the site.

Hail Lopen. (Tentatively.)

--

Lost in round 1 ofd pools, won a match in losers then got knocked out.

I think he's done that in most of the games he's entered.

I'm late, but ST top 8 was so freaking good. we'll be lucky to get a grand final today as good as Mao vs. Kusomondo. god, Kusomondo is insanely good.

we went through about 3 topics on AE top 8 alone last year so I expect at least five topics total today

--
xyzzy

oh hey I didn't know Lopen went to EVO, awesome.

this Frutsy guy has taken out so many big names with MODOK I think it's hilarious.

Try and access those videos? I'm pretty sure you can watch them even if you didn't subscribe, you just don't have access to the highest quality.

(best 12 bucks I've spent recently =P)

I can talk in the chat if I want to (which is pointless)

But mostly being able to watch the streams in 720 and 720+.

I figure since I knew I'd be watching the stream for over 24 hours it would work out okay.

Why would you not want to talk in chat with all of those charming stream monsters?

All these sales on fighting games, and CSE hasn't dropped at all.

Guess it's time to see what KoF is all about.

I like how each new topic you make reveals such varied facets of your idiocy. - foolmo
[NO BARKLEY NO PEACE]

Wow stealing the stick. Feel for those guys as I'm pretty sure they work on a shoestring budget as it is.

I love the title of this highlight video

What characters are in the top 8 for SCV? I'm sure my boy Nightmare is there

--
You beat yourself up with your past. Don't blame yourself, blame the world. Blame God. Blame me.

I'm pulling for all the Patroklos too because they've been systematically hunting down and eliminating Mitsurugis like it's their god given duty. Guys earned my undying loyalty
