Umk3 Tournament at MAde In New York

Yup, wrestling was last saturday, not tomorrow (the 'fro lives!). But as I feared, this other prior engagement of mine does indeed fall on June 9th. For some reason I had it marked down as the 16th, but it's actually tomorrow. So I'll be in NYC. It's seriously lame that I'm missing Evo AND this other thing in my own frickin back yard, but this little trip was made months in advance and I mustn't let my buddies down! :evil:

Although if you guys plan on making it a LATE night (like after midnight) I could probably stop by. I'm actually gonna end up in Wantagh, which isn't very far at all. :shock:

Well tonight was definetly fun, and very heated matches for Shock and I, I will say. Top 3 tonite were:

1. Frankiebonez
2. Shock
3. Matt (owner of Made in New York)

I must say me and shock went down the the wire! I hope at least some of the videos came out on tape. People crowded around the machine so much might have blocked the camera.

In the finals shock and I went back and forth. I was in the winners bracket and shock was in the losers bracket. First round of the brackets shock won, matches went back and forth... 1-0, 1-1, 2-1, 2-2 etc. with shock pulling out the victory. Since I didnt lose yet it went to the finals again, and shock and I played and shock went up 3-1. I came back and made it 4-3 and shock then tied it up 4-4. The last fight came down to a ton of chip damage, extremely well played by both but I came out on top. I had about 10% health left in the end.

Needless to say I'm happy, and super happy shock came out. Next tournament here or at The Break we need to get MORE PEOPLE FROM TRI-STATE TO COME DOWN!!!!! There will be another at the shop, and I hope more come through. Keep the game alive people!

Yes man, excellent matches, however I think on the tape you'll be able to tell we were struggling with the button config. So much stuff was coming out as LPs etc, so wildly. But in any event, it was a full set both times around I believe for us so that's like 18 matches.

I am going to start getting people hyped up for a gathering at the Break and it doesn't have to be for a major tournament, we can just get together, figure out a weekend that's good for most players and we'll get like 20 people out. There's a LOT of players hovering around the area now. There were 6 people there tonight in the tournament I've never met, plus a few guys afterward, and then all the Break guys plus any newcomers who want to come out. I will start making a guest list.

VGGs Frankie, I'll get the vids up maybe Monday.

Made in NY Skate Shop UMK3 Tournament

Results are in.

1. Frankiebonez
2. Shock
3. Matt (owner of Made in New York)

Frankie and Shock went at it in the finals in what was an 18 or so match up run, lots of sweating, lots of UMK3. A total of 8 players.

Videos will be up in the next few days of at least the finals.

hell yea Shock, those were some really fun and intense matches. The last match of my Kabal vs. your Reptile was just plain sick. It was a good time thats for sure. Hopefully next time there will be more people.

I'm totally down for a Break gathering.

Oh man I totally hope I can make the next one. I actually got home a little after 6AM, so at least it's not like I just missed this by a few minutes or anything. I'm gonna try and stay on top of things so I don't miss the next one, whether it's at The Break or in my neck of the woods!

Thanks to Shock And Frankie for coming thru, next time we'll be sure to have a couple more machines and more players. In a couple of weeks we'll put something together maybe

Is the 2nd UMK3 machine standard set up? Also, I dunno if I can get the 21st off, but I can try. My buddy Steve would like to come out as well just to chill.

I might come up on the 21st. I can't get used to the Arcade for the life of me, but I have been able to get my Robot Smoke about the same as I play him on xbla.

I don't know how man.. I mean, I can get the stick pretty easily, but the placement of buttons is the most confusing part.

It works amazingly well once you learn how to position your hand

yea dude, you just gotta use your whole hand. Train yourself to only hit run with your thumb and the rest will fall into place. Playing MK1 and MK2 with the X pattern, then adding the RUN button later on was easy to learn for alot of the older veterans.

I just relized that both of these weekend are not good for me personally. This weekend I got a birthday I'm going to on saturday, and next week is Waterfest the biggest Volkswagen car show on the east coast... I'm 90% going to the car show providing my car is ready which it should be. If for some reason my car isnt ready I'm not going, but I wont know till the 20th.

Perhaps on another day then, maybe a friday or a sunday afternoon or whatever is the best . My main objective is to get a lot of good players to come, last time a bunch of my dudes were missing or were funneling way to many beers. We have the 2nd machine now which is a plus, I'm so damn used to playing on the 3x3 setup getting used to standard config has been a pain in the ass as I miss combos and am not nearly as sharp. The gameplay around the shop has been serious though as of late so we want to get as many guys down as possible
