Ultra Street Fighter IV

[Plopboy]

I do despair at this, on one hand the FGC wants itself to be taken seriously as a sport and yet you have Zhi with his puerile and offensive jokes. I'm not sure if he is trying to be ironic or edgy but he just comes cross as being a complete dick.

I'm also getting to the piont where I'm getting quite embarrassed to be known to play this game, I'm ok with friends and colleagues knowing I like playing a childs video game but this sort of stuff just really makes me feel quite ashamed.

Perhaps this little corner of the internet is less like the general hive mind that is the FGC or as in most cases the bad rises to the top and gets more exposure

I'm off this week before I start my foul new job. Fights anyone?

[IgTerminals]

I'll be on by 2. I've only just woken up so need coffee. Also I've not played for two and a half weeks so forgive my rustiness.

[IgTerminals]

Excellent 90min set against sithlord, who I believe is imp. First real set against him. I have little to no experience of Hawk so that was interesting. Also I did some stupid shit but was wonderful to play again.

[IgTerminals]

Also 569:35 hours on the clock and overall win ratio of 33.32%. My highest yet!

[Camel]

Sithlord is Sith. Imp is IMP666COPKILLER69.

[IgTerminals]

Ah, sorry. For some reason I can't access Plops wonderful list anymore. It requires a password for google but constantly reloads so I can't physically type the password in.

[Plopboy]

I shall have a gander and see if I can fix it. You may have to be logged I to google to see it, but I will check, spreadsheet fail

[Lyrical Donut]

I'm on as the Cody's ting for a bit!

[IgTerminals]

Awww. I'm out now. Would love to get some matches in with you tomo, Donut, if you would be around.

And thanks Mr Plopboy. It may be my end but not able to properly go through it at the moment.

Sithlord is Sith. Imp is IMP666COPKILLER69.

Cheers for the games IG, never seen someone do so many flash kicks haha.

They worked a lot. Cept on Hawk. I really don't know how to deal with him. He keeps getting in. And your footsies are excellent. I was trying different pokes but you always had the exact range and an answer. Look forward to some more matches, especially your Ryu andHawk. I love footsies. One day I might even be able to use them.

Oh hey! It's Canada Cup this weekend. I had no idea.

Noo, no more tournaments! My PC has died and my backlog is already out of hand.

Still to watch:

TGS Madcatz exhibition stuff (except Daigo vs. Infiltration. I'd love to write a big spiel about that but, again, my PC is fucked.)

Brazil Capcom cup qualifier
Japanese Capcom cup qualifier
European Shadowloo Showdown qualifier
SoCal Shadowloo Showdown qualifier
Summer Jam
Fall Classic

Also I have not been able to find a good time to play Streetfighter online. Unbearable lag every evening all week. Too many housemates. The only practise I've managed in preparation for Manchester is training mode. I am going to get destroyed on Saturday

Do we have a GTA5 crew yet? I want to be in a crew.

[ah]

We're going to have to start playing for an hour before work each morning next week.

[JLM]

We should do offline IRL fighter semi-frequently also. I need practise and I am getting none. It's too late for Manchester but I have Heggwest, Rival Scenes and Teesports coming up and I don't want to be rubbish at all of those.

Regarding my PC, I think I may use this as an excuse to buy a laptop. HOWEVER, my concern is getting all the stuff off my other PC. I could take the hard drive out of my dead PC, put it in someone else's as a secondary drive and then copy my tings onto an external hard drive. Is there an easier way I can do this? Is it possible to connect an internal hard drive from a desktop PC to a laptop in any way for the purposes of copying things from it?

Yes, I am an internet savvy person who knows nothing about computers. I am that guy.

[Plopboy]

Take you old HD out and put it in a USB external drive case and Bob is that dodgy relation nobody talks about anymore.

[IgTerminals]

You can, but you'll need to buy an adapter or an external harddrive case. You can get SATA/ IDE to USB adapters and can do it that way.

[Plopboy]

E.g. http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/s/ref=is_s_ss_i_0_27?k=external+usb+hard+drive+enclosure&sprefix=External+USB+hard+drive+enc

Obviously you will need to get the right size enclosure, probably 3.5

[JLM]

Excellent, that is exactly the sort of gadget I envisioned but was unsure actually existed. Many thanks gents.

I need a laptop with at least a 750gb hard drive with lots of USB ports and that can run AE comfortably. I don't need no god damned touch screen nonsense or WIndows 8 malarkey. An SD card reader would be nice. I don't want to spend more than £450. Am I being realistic guys?

[imp]

Yess, PC AE. (Yess.)

[sith]

Dell outlet mate, you'll get a laptop worth 1K for about £500

[Camel]

JLM fretting about being rubbish at Heggwest. Whatever next?

[ah]

Yess, PC AE. (Yess.)

PC AE is broken, I can't do any combos on it!

JLM, I don't suppose you fancy coming over one night this week if you're worried about practice? Could potentially even do a Friday night cram session before Manchester if the lovely person I live with is amenable to it. Still not sure if I can make it on Saturday itself but you could always stay over and go on from here alone on Saturday morning.

You're probably busy dancing to loud music or whatever, though.

Aw crap. I didn't actually think of Heggwest being an actual tourney.

Now I'm nervous.

Anyone around for fightings? I really need the practise. Before I meet you all in person.

Shit.

[Camel]

It's not an actual tourney. Relax.

Is it?

I might be on in a bit for some fightings. I'm half drunk though.

[ah]

Haha, it's not like that. Unless you're Nate.

We'll do a tournament bracket on Saturday but it'll only take a few hours, the rest of the time we traditionally spend chatting about how broken Guile is.
