Thanks for hosting - couldn't stay long tonight, but 'twas fun getting beat up!

[cha cha]

Yo guys my bad on tonight, not only is twitch acting up in general tonight. But I was not here until now, I had extreme car troubles arise on the way back from work.

So my crew kinda set up shop without me, but didn't know who to notify. So I apologize for the missed messages and confusion.

I totally can set up 3S if anyone wants, or if you wanna invite my account.

gah, just sorry it ended up getting botched tonight.

[mjmjr25]

me n my crew still played some 3S so it wasn't a total loss, we had fun.

[cha cha]

I am saddened by this separateness I feel from your crew

We shall correct this next week I hope!

[cha cha]

GGs tonight TSTR, sorry I missed you dsheinem.

Like I said, the minute I left work, the whole night got borked out of control. I was stuck on an icy roadside with a dead car for the better part of 2hrs. Eventually got it working, only to find out on my way in that several dudes I asked to hold it down in my stead...bounced with no explanation. Leaving one of our community's new guys all alone to play you for hours and no one commenting on stream or responding to PSN messages, lol.

Tstr- You had some good reads tonight from what I saw man. It took me a minute to get used to SF online, since the only time I play it anymore is for this. (I was the Rose/Cammy)
But you were beating on Jeff and Brian pretty well, kudos!

I'm hoping for better turn outs and better stream quality next week. I will come up with some new ideas to drum up more support for this in the meantime.

[TSTR]

what we gotta do is desegregate the crews
so it's not just me in the lobby fightin one dude
all them boys represent up in Buffalo
so Racketboys need to Hulk like Mark Ruffalo
and show up to smash even if you kinda green
so i can watch y'all playin different stuff on the stream
of course that all depends on the servers up at twitch
cause the video tonight was straight laggin like a bitch
but it's all good man, i know it's gettin tweaked up
i still had fun sitting here gettin beat up
so even though it's cold out and it might be snowin
we can keep this thing hot—let's get the salt flowin

i love everyone here

And thanks cha, I'm keeping at it. Trying to work on better punishes than just sweeps, playing more smartly aggressive after knockdowns, yada yada. I wanted to beat your Cammy so bad though, just couldn't make it happen.

lol everytime i come home from work and see all those missed invites it just makes me feel ashamed not really im just joking

[cha cha]

If there is anything about the way this is run, who I include or the games played/not played- please let the criticisms flow guys, I certainly can take it. I really wanna make this feel like a Racketboy community night, and if me inviting locals of both scrub and decent player caliber... is somehow lessening the experience or annoying in some way, lmk. The stream will get better when I get time to up the production quality etc etc., but if you don't want this streamed or there is an aspect of it that annoys you, let it out.

I feel overall there is somewhat of a reluctance to join these nights, and I hope it's not any hidden animosity going unknown by me.
Is the way I present this annoying? Are there people here who don't trust me because I am a new guy? I mean... I don't know, just speculating possible causes.

People are busy, and I get that. But I feel like there is still a disconnect between me and a vast majority of players here who still play FGs online.

Is weekly too often? Not enough? Are my lobby invites not coming fast enough? Are there too many locals- making this feel nonexclusive to RB? Is SF4 being centric atm turning you off? Need to know!

for me personally, it's just not that easy to commit. I like that you're doing it. I like knowing that if I can make, it's there. But just life means that I'm in bed by 10 EST during the week. So if I happen to be free during that time, and happen to own the game during that time, then I can hop on. If not, then I can't.

As it happened, you started this during the holiday season, which meant my time was even more limited.

My only real complaint from the one night I did get to come would echo dsheinem's from that same night - I showed up, and played for an hour or more, yet I was basically watching some guy who none of us knew beating the heck out of everyone else. It wasn't exactly exciting for me to watch. Like dsh had said, even if I was just watching two RB members that I did know, that would at least be more interesting than watching a stranger dominate. I mean, I can hop on PSN any time and get beat up by a stranger for an hour.

The streaming thing makes no difference to me. I don't watch the stream personally. I'd just come to play.

SF4 rules, but I'd be willing to play any game that was cheap and had an active group of guys willing to play as well.
