Winter Championships
period: 12/15/2011 - 01/05/2012
1 TouchArcade (5427TP)
2 Denjin Dojo (4411TP)
3 9li (3128TP)

And since I am in TAAC it said TA AccentCore records is 35th out of 2750 teams in this tournament.

Is this mean the tourney is over and TouchArcade team is the winner?

Thanks.
If you click on tournament in the website, it will show the same results and if you scroll down some more, you'll see replay rally which will be on 1/12-1/15 where we will have to have our replays downloaded a lot? It says "Show off your best moves in this tournament where the goal is to get as many downloads as possible! Go for broke!". So couldn't we just upload one random replay each and every one of us downloads it?


4 more days and I'm ready to finish off the tournament as well as have a few friendlies against some of our new members. I played KaChigga's other account on the new years. 2 replays are up, both of which I lost. Too bad the replay doesn't show the lag spikes so you don't get to see the full story. Good games KaChigga, your Cammy is pretty beast.

This game is much more fun now with the team aspect and playing the people here. I just played -40 (C) yester day and he crushed me twice. He was really aggressive and I had no answer . Mr. Rockdi crushed me so bad I didn't ask for a rematch .

I noticed BPs tend to fluctuate quite a bit. I went from 3200 to 2600 back to 3200 in about 15 matches last night. I wish people would realize that BP is not so hard to get and not care so much.

Ken Ken- I recently played a couple Dhalsims that beat me pretty good. I think people are adjusting to he nerfs now and Sim doesn't seem as broken as I initially thought. Hope to play you soon

Being a charge character, the lag probably hurt you more than me. It was friendly to so it was all in good fun.

Your blanka was pretty good so maybe go with him, fei long and viper are also good characters that arent that common, so maybe give them a shot too.
Heh, I always lack patience, my fingers start twitching every time the action is stopped. Ryu used to be my main, but I stopped using him after 1-2 weeks of online since he was so meta, so now I usually start with Blanka. And yeah, I mostly play bluetooth, me and my friend usually goes random so I can't really play right with anyone xD, I have been trying to use everyone, I still have Yun, Chunli, Balrog and Makato left, but I'm stuck at Yun, have no idea how to use him right.

Online seems lag-less, but is the speed different from bluetooth? I always feel a difference, and I miss so many combos online.

Oh, forgot to mention that we have a Platinum (?) Trophy for winning the Winter Championships tournament.

And for some reason, it's only our team that the website displays the most recent 12 members consisting of 2 rows of 6 members whereas all the other teams, it's displayed correctly showing all their members. It's something minor, but it just stands out to me.

It's not so much that speed matters, but the ping in the connection between the two parties. The delay in the information that's sent and received is much larger using WiFi compared to bluetooth which is why lots of combos that require a tight timing end up missing since we have to input a little before that what we are used to to make up for the lag and continue the combo.

I've noticed that a lot of the low tier characters in Snooper's chart have great combo potentials, except that they require a 1 frame link. I never knew that Makoto could link 2 s.punches->s.kick->hayate until I saw nashberry landing those on me. If those could be perfectly executed every time, her damage output would go off the roof and probably land her in a higher tier. Same goes for vega, where he can do great damage with 1 frame link combos but with lag in play while using WiFi, more often than not, those combos get dropped. Solely because of that, Akuma is rated lower than he should be because of the s.punch link is so tough pulling it off consistently and his damage gets greatly reduced from what it should be.

Agreed. Sakura's tatsu, st. p link is so tight, as well as her uppercut, lvl2 focus link. But she really needs all that extra damage to make her viable at a high level. The same goes for her link from a hit confirmed cr. k into ex tatsu or uppercut. It seems like hit confirming cr.k with characters like bison and blanka is easy, but it's a tough link with sakura.

I'm sticking with her though, I'm having a lot of fun.

I was at a friends house playing over Bluetooth, the timing was WAYYYYY different than online, it sucked

It used to be a 5:5 match between us but since after the update, he has been owning me 7-3. I find BP meaningless but I think our BP difference tells the story this time: Last time we played, he won 3-2 sets.

Note to myself again: Ken|Ken, you CAN'T always cross-up teleport against advance players!

hahaha, it's always been good for us to play each other.
Ken|Ken, I believe it will become 5:5 match pretty soon..
see! I told you you can do it. 3:2 for last time we play, was so close!!

don't forget to mention the 2 set matches on the day before.
I have no idea how you did that super strong defense and punish me like all at perfect timing.

I lost you 2 sets then immediately faced Ken|Ken for another 5 set we mentioned above.

very challenging day but I had fun!
