My Evo Trip: Part 1

EVO 2009

^^ Expand

So this is the scene from EVO during Semi-Finals. If you click on the pic you will be able to find me somewhere in there. Of course, I am the only one who is sitting on a chair - (i'm lazy.. can u blame me?)

I am trying to find time to post all about the several things that happened during EVO in Las Vegas, food, people, my matches, my friends matches, and of course, dumb shit that people do and say at these tournaments.

As a teaser, I am glad to say that only 1 person I ran into reeked of body odor. I am pretty sure he slept outside "Ping Pang Pong", the racist chinese restaurant outside of the Gold Coast Casino/Hotel. He and the guy with ripped tidey whities tie for the most disgusting thing I have seen/smelled. My respective senses were owned by their lack of social/body odor awareness.

I am going to have to take sometime to find the pics and stuff so... give me until Monday-ish?


Later.

SF4: New Age of Grinding

So I went to the Fuddruckers Tournament in Concord. There were about a 180 participants for SF4 and 30 or so for HD Remix. The total prize for SF4 was 1200 dollars - I had no piece of it.

180 Gamers packed into the upstairs party room of a Fuddruckers with only 3 Fans led to intolerable amounts of humidity. It was borderline disgusting at a certain point so much that my friend was cheering me on to lose my 2nd match so that we could leave.

If you are interested in the results it is posted on iplaywinner.com here.

I really do not have much of an update here. I have been practicing each day and working on a few things. I have given up on the EX Rush Upper loop for it's impracticality and am now focused on the rush upper jab jab headbutt combination for stun and mix-up opportunities.
