NOTES:
Obviously we're missing the full Marvel results. I would venture to guess Jiggabry has the full bracket and he can fill in the blanks when he gets home.
Guilty Gear XX was Round Robin format with Louie winning all his matches and Stephen only losing to Louie.
CvS2 was a split pot with Roger leading after the medium kick on the 2p side completely died and the tech wasn't there.
Marvel took forever to get off the ground because the cabinet was fucked. CoveGuy (Mark) went way above and beyond what was necessary and moved the entire board over to a new cabinet so we could have the tournament. Thanks so much man.
Big thanks to Dark Dragon for loaning me the use of his camcorder so I could tape multiple tournaments at once. Also thanks for hooking up Team White Boyz with help for their cars.
Much thanks to Chris Poeta for running Marvel, Eric for running 3rd Strike and Stephen for running GGXX.
York U has potential. We were in a snowstorm and still had a huge tourney. Better weather will come in April when we return there and we should have a monster of a tournament.

Really fun tourney this time. Probably one of my favourite tournies in a long time even with trashy marvel... Good games all, I also see potential in york... but you can't keep marvel on that dc machine... ate at least 10 dollars in quarters.
So much props to give out today damn. Huge thanks to Chris Poeta for making it out in that nasty weather. car breaking down, pushing it half a km to a convience store and waiting there for 2 hours. Thanks to Darkdragon for picking us up at the convienence store and taking us to York U in that horrible crap that was the weather. Props to Mark (coveguy)for working so damn hard to get us a marvel tourny and for driving us back to Chris' car, trying to boost the car and waiting with us till the cab came.
Props to steve for beating Justin :D
Tekken 5 is the future
York U needs sentinel! :sad:
GG's with AngryBlack, Tyrel, Steve and Doggy in Tekken 5:tup:
Nice to see the people in the scene come together like today to make shit happen. Good stuff.
Getting used to the sticks more and more. School for me is almost over soon so I can go play more casual there. nice tourny!

great turnout guys. glad to be of help
my appologies for the cvs2 button. i had to jet over to orbit to take care of a few things.
my applogies to the mvc2 players who were waiting so long. and sorry we couldn't get the characters unlocked. i'll take a look at orbit and our other mvc2s and see if i can figure something out.
if anyone finds out anything with concerns to the mvc2, please email me at marc@campuscove.com
*note* do not email me with the 4 codes on damage leve, demo sound, etc etc. we've done that already.
*cool stuff (that i liked atleast)*
jay losing 4 roudns straight -_- dudley against urien dammit! i've lost faith in you jay :p
bry with that miracle comeback in mvc2

Why don't u just admit u lost to Jeff, u goldfish.
I sure enjoy the tourny espeically how SF3 was such a disadvantage SETUP for the York U players and also JS Master giving up his 2nd spot INTENSIONALLY just so Jay can play Jeff again(is there a bribe somewhere there? i wonder) And what i luv the most is that under such circumstances Jeff won.
And someone should really shut JS Master's pile-hole up during the match between the Goldfish and Pedo-killer.

k i dunno wut u mean by sayin it was a disadvantage for york players... 32 ppl joined the tourney, we had to make it 2/3 rounds or we'd be staying there till 3am. and i gave up becuz i didn't wanna play ne more, and chances are i woulda lost ne wayz, simple as dat.
PS. if u wanna play in a quiet environment den go to a library... i dun't see u telling those fobs to shut up wen they're yelling during yun CCs :lame:
and ya nice tourney guys... can't believe bryan won again! ughh :mad:

It was a fun tournament overall. Just wasn't my day for me.
The York players had great matches in the 3S Zone and a good majority of players on their side are really good IMO. That Necro dude was really good and the people who kept taking turns with Alex were raping during casuals. Amazing.
I've come to the conclusion that anyone that does the Yun "Hey Hey Hey" thing outside of Japan is :lame:
Come to think of it, its getting old when its done in Japan vids now too... :xeye: Was cute at first I guess but god damn that shit has run its course.
Anyways, great tourney and major props to Marc for putting up with all that shit. Metro bitches!

ah you must be one of those retards that was trash talking my first match. you need to shut the fuck up and you probably didn't play in the tourny because you're a pussy.

And the GGXX results were spelled wrong.

Wow I butchered those results pretty badly. It should be noted I only played one match against Lewis because I don't think I even left my entry fee in the pot. I'm going to learn XX and #R though so when the next ORBIT tournament hits in March I'll be better prepared.

this tourney was fun :tup:
i started drinking (yes...i brang liquor) after i lost my 1st match in 3s to ParryMaster-Jay, i got half-drunk after my 3 matches in XX (can only play #R :sad:) found out Steve was Original Gatsby on Live :rofl: i used Athena and Raiden in CvS2 (and it worked!) but got eliminated 2-1 in close matches, met some cool peoples from all around such as Steve, Tyrell, Jiggabry, JS-Master, etc...(now you know psychochronic is not some random white guy :rofl:)
...tournament was dope! :tup: i got 5th in XX; i beat Baisden :rofl:
MAD PROPS to Dogberry for giving me a ride back to Meadowvale Terminal :tup: i thought i was stranded but i found my way home and sobered up after walking 20 minutes in -30C windchill
i'll try to make it to Metro Square for February 19 (or whatever date Baisden sets it on)

Ya Vrus maybe it was me who trash talk u after the first round, but u're a bigger pussy cuz u didn't say anything back. and let me guess, u must be one of JS master and the Goldfish's bitches

If you didn't play at the tourny, stop posting. Theres no more room for cheerleaders. Honestly, you're like the 4th person to make up an account just to talk shit online. Why you didn't silence js or make fun of jay to his face is beyond me.
Just leave e-thug.

I was actually quite happy with my performance. I didn't expect anything from facing JS Master although I tried my best, he still beat me and I was in loser's bracket. From there I managed to win the next two and I was up against Jamie in a close matchup which I lost. I'm glad I lost to him and no one else actually, we've been playing each other a lot lately on those same sticks and it could have gone either way. But I was soooooo looking forward to facing Justin in the round after that one!! Too bad neither of us made it there. Lookin' forward to facing you again Jamie! :karate: Oh ya and than-x for guarding my food hahaha popeye's rocks

What days are the busy days at york?
After this week I'm finished highschool for ever and will have a lot of spare time for awhile and might consider coming up to york to play some time.
X-Pac786
01-23-2005, 12:34 PM
hmmm its strange because people that play always have class now and then ... from what I know the best days are Tues/Thurs. Mondays are not bad, but Fridays aren't busy at all ... pretty much anytime before Friday! And arcade starts to get packed usually around 11am
Ya Vrus maybe it was me who trash talk u after the first round, but u're a bigger pussy cuz u didn't say anything back. and let me guess, u must be one of JS master and the Goldfish's bitches
I didn't say anything back because I like to concentrate on the game. Please, why should I start shit when:
#1 I know I'm better than you
#2 You ride on other people's nuts.
#3 You follow the crowd :rolleyes: (Keep yelling out hey hey hey!)
Don't even try to reply justifying yourself. It's obvious you don't know the scene and you're trying to fit in. Just remember everytime you lose at sf, vrus is laughing at you, because he knows thats how much your shit :clap: . I'm not going to bother replying to you anymore.
x-pac is cool.
chunliwhytry is much better than the last time I played him.
And I forgot to say ggs to everyone I played.
SmapSyusuke
01-23-2005, 12:59 PM
Vrus just admit u're their bitch, thats all, u really believe i trash talked u on the first round, i arrived on the 2nd round. You've been taking out on the wrong guy, but is ok, i forgive u cuz u're related the goldfish and JS.
JS u said u don't wanna play, well then u shouldn't waste ppl time playing CvS2 while everybody is waiting for u to play Jay on SF3. Then u just sat down and "give up" (in ur words, in mine is call "ga ball"). Here i suggest u next time just say "I give up, cuz i luv jay"
Nagata Lock II
01-23-2005, 01:32 PM
Let me get this straight, you didn't enter the tournament and yet you're talking shit on the guy that came 3rd in 3S, 2nd in CvS2 and 2nd in MvC2 in the same day? Wow, you may well be the most stupid person to come through here in quite some time.
It's also Eric's choice whether or not to play through his match against Jay. The guy had already locked up third where as you didn't even have the balls to show up and get probably peaced out by the same people you're trashing now.
BTW; Eric didn't waste anyone's time. He had to play through his match in CvS2 because it had come up before 3S. One tournament match doesn't take precidence over another because the former has a bigger crowd.
Oh ya and than-x for guarding my food hahaha popeye's rocks
I was tempted to hide the food on you to be honest but seriously, no problem. Hell, around that time I was hungry as hell, you're lucky I didn't eat the stuff.
I'll try to make it to York again, but unfortunately not for a couple of weeks...too busy with my work placement right now. Good games man and keep owning up the place.

guy you should appreciate the fact that a lot of York U players showed up for 3S and mixed things up a bit so instead you got a tourney that was different than usual. I told Jeff from the beginning that he was going to win, I did this to encourage the guy and I had a feeling he could too, he was pacing nervous before his final rounds against Jay, and he tried his best and came out on top, what's with all the hostility yo? He plays everyday at York and runs that cabinet. I've never seen Jay and Jeff square off I knew it'd be interesting because Jay shows up and takes everyone else out on many days throughout any given month.

Hey guys this was my 1st tournament i really made alot of mistakes i tried hard but what can i say my Necro didn't have a great day, i didn't corner trap very well (nervous i guess) i know i have been known to crap talk alot in the past, the truth was because i couldnt find any good 3s players thank god i found them all at once ready to own me hahah... anyways i was the white guy with the blue shirt using necro, i had fun and met a bunch of ppl and faces to match the tags.. good games everyone i hope to enter any other tournament that is out there from now on... take care guys
P.S oh and by the way the busy days at york are usually at lunch time most ppl like jeff don, melvin show up along with a lot of other good players, and it remains busy untill like 5pm
but i show up in the afternoons weekdays so if anyone wants to own me up let me know

and yeah, the days i'll stop by are monday and thursday afternoons....i have tuesdays and wednesdays off, and people have told me that there's not as many people on fridays....
i won't be playing though...mostly just watching and seeing how the matches are played...

exactly. it's one thing to watch and see how the games are played... but the only way to really find out is the play man. if you're worried about ppl bashing you because of what you read here, you're worrying for nuttin.
most people at york, orbit (and waterloo cove) are fairly nice guys. i know when i was first learning 3s (and i still am), most of the guys were more than willing to give me advice on strategies / combos, etc etc.
but you won't get much advice if you don't play :p

well, you're right....i was there this past monday and watched someone get owned in three straight rounds, but someone else was watching him and giving him a little advice between rounds...
it's just that i'm getting a joystick soon, and i'm thinking it might be able to help me practice combos and other things at home before bringing my game to the arcade...

It'd be cool if you learned about organizing and running tourneys :)
speaking of which. justin, i need to talk to you sometime in the near future about tournaments.
starburst (that means all the coves & orbit) have started something called KO Tournaments. It serves as both a VIP card for computers, but also, being a KO member means that you'll get cheaper registration (orbit will cover the rest for pot) into tournaments run by us. In addition to this, my boss has informed me that the first KO member to win 10 KO tournaments (in any game, as long as their run by KO... in other words, me or any other staff), will win a bonus $500
Now, i've spoken with some people, and let me clarify
I do not plan to, nor will I, change the way tournaments are run when it comes to fighting games. Orbit will not take a cut of the pot (as long as i have a say in it)
The main reason for us running the tournament is because I (we) want to keep you customers playing at OUR locations as much as possible. (in other words... cancel your tournament at metro) :p
... i know i should post this on a seperate topic, but i'll do that after i talk to the main gta tournament organizers (justin, eric, etc etc)

yeah, i do see your point. i've been meaning to get a ps2 / dc and practice at home myself. but i don't wanna mess up my balance b/w school / work / gf
also, i'd recommend dlding vds. but don't rely on them. personally, i don't think anything can compare to real practice against real players :tup:

Marc; I'd appreciate if you kept this topic between tournament organizers instead of bringing it up in open forum. It's like opening a Pandora's Box bringing up the KO Tournament format like this. You're a businessman, you should know better. Please feel free to contact both Eric and myself on MSN or via email (you can reach me at pegasuskid@rogers.com). I think discussing the KO tournaments in person would be a far better idea as there are elements that will be needed to iron out.

No, justin does have a point. I did step out of line because they are the regular tournament organizers.

out of line? If you want to make tournaments, you don't need permission from anyone. However it'd be a good idea to get input from the entire community.
