Had to post this, after last night's...events, I thought it necessary to post up on 8WR to ask. This is the result of some testing. So apparently a) it's consistent, and b) Prep K is the worst move ever created.

Well, my copy of SCV comes sometime next week. And the snow's melting, so transportation this weekend shouldn't be as ridiculously difficult. I'm about ready to get a rental from Redbox, though.
May play Astaroth instead of Natsu; I love his backthrow. His CE is apparently even more useless than Raphael's, though, which is truly a feat. Still, he has a great throw game and you know I'm all about that.

Too bad that since it's a grab with not even the remote possibility of mixup (most throws have the A/B break mix or throw/mid mix) as soon as you see his feet flash you can just duck, or so I've read. I could be wrong though.

GGs Jon, I'm going to have to look up more top-tier Goldar strats, apparently he's not bad in this game. His ability to create frame traps (in Legendary Souls mode) seems like it would make him fun to troll people with. Also, aGI CE = wow. I mean, it's not exactly practical to use as a GI unless your opponent whiffs the first hit of a string, and we all know that whiffing isn't allowed in this game.
I'm gonna be at on a business trip in Iowa this Thursday, but if anyone else wants to bring in a system/game/etc, the room's still reserved. We also spoke with a dude from an on-campus general fighting games group who may be willing to host. []
Yo. Finally got my password reset. And for some reason it wont let me post on 8WR at work. I've been out of town for the past 2 weekends and I lost my phone for a bit.
But I'm down to play this weekend sometime. I can host or meet up. Let me know.

Vote now or I will quit this game and never speak to any of you again. You have 4 free character choices for Tekken, but I think you know who the final one has to be.

EDIT:
a) It's on Facebook, so you need to have that
b) Honestly, you'd probably be voting for some random 5th person anyway, so might as well make it her. Maybe it'll convince Harada and Murray that "raw character usage data" from a 13-year-old, horribly balanced game gathered in a region supersaturated with a ninja character type isn't exactly relevant here and now.
Sunday! sunday! sunday!. Hey we could head up to cleavland on Sunday for thier monthly. Some of the 2d peeps want me to go. I heard some of our old friends may be there. I'm down if you guys are.
For some reason I can't post on 8wayrun at work. I can go on the site but I cant post..........wtf.

Hi Pittsburgh - this may be a bit late and you guys may be a bit far - but we're having a tournament in the DC area tomorrow afternoon. It's about 4 and a half hour drive from you. We're expecting VA, MD, NYC and NC people to come. http://www.tekkenzaibatsu.com/forum...threadid=123582
I don't know too much about Pittsburgh players, would love to meet a few of you guys if you guys decide to come through.
This Sunday will be a bad time to be moving around Pittsburgh...CMU's having Commencement. But it would be great to get some games in this weekend, if I can find transport (yay buses)...just gotta have a set time/place. []
