Appearantly Tyler is offering u a ride in SRK. Get at him and his super van of ultimate room and bring dat setup.

EDIT: Also, how many KOF setups are we looking at for FF tomorrow? Konkrete, Bzerk, and who else?

KOFXIII results from Frosty Faustings IV: 33 entrants
1. Sparkster
2. James
3. Hero
4. Bzerk
5. King of Bums

Results from my head.

Good job Chicago for reppin in KOFXIII. 4 players in top 5 aka the money.

Highlights of KOFXIII tournament:
- Konkrete's shocking lost after being labeled the favorite to win it all.
- Bzerk losing to James... Again.
- Epic Grand Finals on stream.
- Chicago making all of top 8 winners side.

I am very, very unhappy with my performance. I was straight up not getting qcf to the right with my stick. I hope it was just me being really off and not my stick malfunctioning. Oh well. See you guys in a bit. Must practice for ignite...

Also, when I get completely moved, I'd like to start doing gatherings if people would be down. Maybe Saturdays?

I guess so... Either that or it's mainly because he had King on point. First time I've ever played against a legit King.
The Andy vs King matchup felt a bit annoying to me. Then his EX Iori was a problem. I felt like I had to beat his EX Iori with my Andy still alive to take da match. As usual it was hard for him to punish his elbow. I think Medina gots the archives up for grand finals on twitch tv.

Hey guys, I had lots of fun in Chicago, and it was fun meeting nothing89, Bzerk, and the other locals. My gameplay was a little on the experimental tip (trying out characters and teams to see who I am comfortable with), so I will take what I learned and train more. Again, good meeting meeting you fellas. If there is a results thread here on the forums, I will post more shoutouts.

@Desmond - it was nice meeting u n the rest of the out-of-towners. Sucks we couldn't get any games in, but hopefully things will run a lot smoother in next year's FF so we could do an epic 5v5 showcase/exhibition on stream.

@Konkrete - I'm down for some Saturday gatherings. I've also heard Nickel city wants the Chi-town FGC to do some gatherings on Saturdays. Would be nice to have another gathering that is close to me or less than 20 minutes of driving/drifting for me.
