Good to know.

I'll confirm my attendance in a day or two.

Also trying to get my friends to get in on it.

Alan, if you need more PS3s for whatever reason, someone set up a PS3 renting service.

Just asking, the event now is the marathon only right?

That means Saturday only?

I'm bringing my own stick too.

Mike, you coming? I need revenge against your Chun~~~~~~~~~

Relax, I'm out of practise. I haven't played in like what, a month?

I might be coming a bit earlier than that. Maybe 10.30 to 11.

Remember, tomorrow is the last weekend of school holidays. Might be in your best interests to go just a bit earlier.

^ Phillips screwdriver is the one with like a starlike tip right? Iirc you need one, a small one. Screws at the bottom of the base use those.

Are we still allowed to bring our own sticks though?

Can come, but you'll be stuck on pad.

You could borrow a stick but depending on the turnout, might be tricky to coordinate that.

Haha, if you're used to the DS3 just come and play with the default controller then. Need more pad warriors anyway.

Oh you were there? Which one were you?

I was the only Malay guy playing over and over again. Was wearing a black shirt with abird on it + white jacket which I ended up not wearing. 1/3 of the Balrog players.

It's cool man, there was a super noob kid that was just mashing. Point is to go and have fun.

No projector, we're just playing on huge Sony LCDs.

If you played only 3 rounds it wasn't you. This kid played many times with us.

I know Alvin was taking some. Bug him for it.

I dunno if anyone else has a camera. XD

Originally, we were all going to be forced DS3.

Then some people (not sure who) were like "Hey, we don't mind you using our sticks man."

Thus, the sticks replaced the DS3s.

Yeah, Alan changed it to 3 rounds later on.

So we FINALLY saw the occassional Gief player then.

EDIT: I'm not sure the exact rankings, but Tristan just said he got about 30 wins, I'm about 30 wins too, Vega and Viper specialists both had many 5 win streaks and I think they've both got more than 30. Not too sure about the others.

These are just estimates of course. I've no idea of the exact numbers.

^ 6 buttons have always been default actually.

It's been this way since SF2 (maybe SF1? I wasn't around for that generation).

Those 2 extra buttons (L2/R2 in PS3's case) are assigned shortcut buttons, which are just one buttons that do PPP or KKK in one, so those playing "pure" 6 buttons would have a disadvantage.

You were there yesterday pmg?

Btw, here's a pic of the arcade cabinet looking down specifically at the buttons: http://blog.capcom.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/11.jpg

I dunno how to embed, sorry.

Good games to everyone.

Except TristanX and WhatWhatInMyButt.

(third place)

TristanX, twwong's the Akuma yesterday.

Who was Andrew? Was he that dude that was giving us all free wins?

The winner was WhatWhatInMyButt with about 85 wins.

In second place was Tristan with 57 or so wins.

Those two were the only ones announced.

Alan told me after the prize giving that apparently I was close to Tristan's score, hence why I was like NOOO TRISTAN in the previous page.

And Andrew was that kid with the glasses that talked waaaay more than he should with a loud voice and no sense of self restraint.
