The following link takes you to a super awesome Google Document with just a poo poo ton of useful information about fights, past-present-upcoming from bazza's VGCW stream:

http://bit.ly/VGCWStandings




This is something that would be hugely amazing to have brought over into actual Fighting Game tournies: list of matches in order with a Twitch time link, a (spoilerable) outcome tab, a list of players and their sponsors, etc. would be so awesome. I'm sure it'd be a lot of work but still.

Just got back from an absolutely over-the-top grueling final exam after being pretty depressed most of the day from the shooting. Case of beer, VGCW is on, time to chill. Too bad there's so little left.

There really should be more titles in contention, less title matches, or some kind of champion buff. It seems like every title match is a coin toss and the belt changes hands too often. The champion should be pretty scary and hold the title a bit longer. It seems to kind of lose its meaning this way.

The Arcade Relief stream is finally up an running, though apparently all of Twitch is pretty laggy at the moment. They're running tekken tag 2 at the moment but ST is up next and they put Tomo and Schaeffer on camera once already so they're going to be talking about the old days. No solid confirmation on whether or not they'll actually play any games but *shrug*

Jeff uploaded a video talking about it, and he says he'll be money matching all challengers at Hyper Fighting, AE (I assume SF2 AE?) and Super Turbo.

Jeff and Tomo's segment just wrapped up. They told some interesting stories about the old days of SF2 and they all signed a nice custom stick that will be raffled off later on. No matches on stream though, even though the two were playing HF before their turn on camera. They didn't touch the issue of putting an exhibition on stream with a 50-foot pole, even to tell people to shut up about it, so I'm wondering if they've just gotten so sick of telling people it's not going to happen that they just refuse to talk about it at all now. I know Tomo isn't going to be on point or anything but still, it would be fun to watch the old guys actually play the old games instead of just talk about them.

It sounds like Arcade Relief is stopping early because the fire marshal says there are too many people in the building. :(

Edit: "We are not fighters. We are loving chess masters!" -Some guy I assume is Ralph (the owner)

VVV Yeah, I agree... I've never heard of the place since I don't live in southern Cali, but it sounds like it was an awesome place to play Street Fighter with other people way back in the day.

It's a shame the event has to end early but I guess it's kinda neat that there were so many people who showed up that it caused the problem in the first place.

Hey all,

Over on r/Kappa, general collectors of funny gifs, videos, and screenshots pertaining to the FGC, we had the idea of doing "stream monster awards". I took the idea and ran with it and made a classy Google form for the "Kappies 2012". If you want, vote in these categories for who you think should win the Kappy.

All questions are optional, so if you aren't a big chat participant, or have never heard of r/Kappa, don't worry. To be honest the quality in the non-chat categories is currently pretty lacking on the spreadsheet!

Here are some of the categories:

Stream Monster of the Year
Saltiest Moment
Best Match
Beef/Rivalry of the Year
Tournament of the Year (Non-EVO)
Non-match Moment of the Year
Best non-tournament Stream Series
Best "non-major" stream
FGC Personality of the Year
Moment of the Year

The form is here:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dGNSXzVlcXpvSFphUGtWaTgzV2VVc1E6MQ

I'm going to tally the votes either around New Years or when a day with 0 entries goes by. We have over 30 entries but multiple categories are sitting at tied or 1-off, so votes really do matter.

Seriously?
