Re: May 4th - Skullgirls Mini Launch Tournament - for real this time

FFFFFFUUUUU

I went to the sci lounge today and it looks just as closed as last week, but maybe a little less so.

Seriously wtf?

A couple things:
1) I feel like the SSA should have a way to inform us what's going on. I don't know if they realize how important to our community it is that we hold regular events and not keep people in the dark about when/where we are meeting. I understand that construction happens and sometimes it takes an amount of time that you don't know in advance. I also realize it's not their job to tell everybody and anybody all things, all the time. I dunno, kind of feels like I'm ranting but I think there is something to think about and learn from this.

2) This is just wishful thinking, but it's not like they are actually using the sci lounge space. It's just one plastic tube that is running from the front door to the back door. So I don't see why we couldn't still hold a gathering there, as long as we had permission and don't touch the tubes. But I know it's probably a "construction zone" and doesn't work like that.

Conclusion: Someone should talk to the SSA.  I will send a friendly email, just as a student, asking when they expect the construction to be done. I dunno if someone else wants to talk to them, or have there number or something...

ssa@umsu.ca if anyone's interested.

Well since it seems pretty final that the gathering wouldn't be happening today, if you have any way of contacting Leaf I'd do it, just so he's not super confused at what's going on. I already posted a message in the dustloop forums so I guess that's all we can do :/

Also, that avatar... (O)_(O)

Goddammit

Sorry about this guys. Since I have to postpone Skullgirls yet again, next gathering whenever that actually happens will be purely casuals and the one immediately following will have Skullgirls since I don't want to keep getting your hopes up. Go see The Avengers tonight if you have nothing to do.

Keep in mind that since BaseLan is next weekend, there will be no gathering as we will be doing team tournaments on the Friday at BaseLan starting at 8pm. BaseLan is always a great time so please come to that especially as this is set to be one of the greats.

Thanks. That's the best we can do. Other than someone going to put up a sign on the window or something.

Well, I tend to play the sexy characters, so I finally knew what my avatar should be.

We will not be at the UofM this Friday for we will be at BaseLan Friday evening and all day Saturday.

Team tournaments start at around 8pm on Friday so be sure to attend that.  Teams include SSF4AE, UMVC3 and KOFXIII (one person per character).  If you don't have a team, drop by anyway as a large portion of the teams are made up on the spot.

Saturday events including all official info can be found in the BaseLan thread in the events section.

Alright, after a long hiatus, Friday gatherings will finally return this weekend at the Sci Lounge assuming that it's open (feel free to confirm if you're around the area).

Gaming this Friday will be strictly casuals as I don't want to get anyone's hopes up again.

I won't be able to bring a setup tomorrow though because it's supposed to storm and I bus to the uofm so it would be a big help if others could bring stuff.

I'm 99% sure I'll make it this Friday, but I might show up around 8. I'll bring a tv and my XBAX, and for games I was only gonna bring SC5 but I do have the first BB and SSF4 (not arcade edition), as well as the latest Tekken. If anyone want's to play those lemme know otherwise I'm just bringing SC5. Feel free to bring something you wanna play that's for 360. Other then Jules last time there was no one playing with me T_T.

P.S If anyone's interested I got Arcana Heart for PS2 :P

Alright, it's time to start running ranbats again.

This Friday gathering's ranbats will be SSF4AE and Skullgirls.  That should be able to please the majority of people attending.
