Blogspot and Wordpress?
I'm thinking of switching this site to wordpress since it seems a bit better at format than blogspot.
Not so sure.

SDTekken SF4 Tournament Videos!
Hey all, Faiz again. I just finally got to upload the videos on youtube for the matches so check them out.
Alright, that should be all of the videos that I was able to tape. Sorry for the lack of tripod or proper video capturing equipment, it was a last minute thing to be here in this tournament. Anyways, subscribe or keep an eye out on our youtube to check out other SF4 match vids: http://www.youtube.com/user/ultracombofinishTV

Protip: Wait for "K.O." before you start dancing.
First off, Kensou has some sick viper moves, much love to him and Houston reppin' in Atlanta. For all of those that don't know what's happening, at the final match, Viper whiffs and ultra so Sagat initiates one. Liston starts dancing cuz he thinks the Sagat ultra is gonna hit, Kensou starts to walk away but sees viper NOT DEAD. Kensou proceeds to finish the match before Liston got back on the sticks.
Lesson learned: Dance when you're sure he's dead.

SDTekken SF4 Tournament in Games On at Pacific Beach, San Diego
Wassup all, it's Faiz posting in sunny sunny San Diego.
I just got back from the SDTekken SF4 tournament and it was awesome. Good turnout, no problems whatsoever, and great players came to play great games.
Anyways, I got up with N8monster from SDTekken crew this morning to help him set up for the tournament at Games On in Pacific Beach. Pardon any mistakes in my blog as I'm not sure of the places around here.
First check SDTekken out at: http://www.sdtekken.com
So we started the tournament at 2pm today and it ended roughly around 5. First off, N8 pretty much gave me ideas on how to run tournaments as I'm trying to learn how to get things started for us East Coasters; and their setup was dope. They had 3 stations of ps3 that were all being showed at large screens that are hanging in the middle of the store so no one had to be behind the players to watch them. I was pretty much the bitch of SDTekken today, running around setting up systems, grabbing boxes of prizes, and filming the fights aside from being in the tournament myself!
But I found out that N8 doesn't even take commission from these tournaments, he's in it for the love of the game and the community. Very noble of him, but I still wanted a wall scroll for all the stuff I did, haha.
Look at me with my shit-eating grin. I look like a creep, and adding to it is me with no voice since I lost it yelling my ass off the night before. Saying, "Good match man, hehehehe" with your voice gone makes you look like a rapist.
Speaking of which, I didn't do as bad as I thought I would. I repped east coast, y'all heard?!
I still lost but it was a great learning experience; and the one thing I learned from Socal SF4 players: SoCal is the army of BOXERS AND BLANKAS. Holy shit, everyone and their mamas was a Boxer or Blanka user.
Either way, there were a lot of people that I believed enjoyed themselves in this tournament.
With groups like SDTekken, I can understand why they have such a cultured and strong video game/tourney community. Players give back to their community without asking for anything in return. That's something we can learn from them.
If you guys wanna see the full album of the tournament (there's other photos in the album too, just don't mind them), you can check out the full album right here.
And here are the top 4!
From left to right:
First place: Sanchez - sick dictator right here here. Funny guy too, and oh! He recognizes me from movies! Yay! Matters alot for a lowly stuntman/actor such as I.
Second place: Jay aka Viscant, Blanka and Dhalsim player. He and Sanchez had a great match.
Third place: Shiggles? Shigel? I don't know if I got his name right but this dude was funny as hell too. Go get those burgers you said you wanted to have, haha.
Fourth place: Probably the dude that I was following all day, Andrew V. He had a great Blanka and I probably came off like a wierdo trying to talk to him while I lost my voice.
And he had his lady friend at the tourney too, aww. My ex wouldn't go to my tourneys. >_<
Alright, Faiz out, getting some sleep. I haven't slept yet, FUCK.
Mucho thanks to SDTekken for letting me come to the tourney and help out. Also, thanks to those who contributed their help for the tourney like Angelo and to all of those who came to the tourney today. Keep supporting your local video game community! East Coast, we gotta catch up!

Faiz in the West Coast...and is in a tourney?!
What's good everyone, Faiz here...but in the west coast.
Funny story, not 10 minutes has passed after 'I touched down here in Cali, but I'm already in a tournament held by the SD Tekken crew.
They're holding a SF4 Tournament at Game On in sunny San Diego and I happen to be here so I'm going to get a camera and tape the event for you all AND compete. I know I'm a bit scrubby, but if I could win at least one match, I'm good. Reppin' East Coast afterall, right?
Check these guys out and their page on : http://www.sdtekken.com
Alright peeps, more updates later!

Ultra Combo Finish Podcast: Real Talk Episode 1
Wassup everyone, Faiz here again.
Due to bad luck and schedule, Blizzy and I didn't get to finish this latest podcast so the second part has to wait until I get back. Still, I wanna put this out here first then we'll continue it at a much later date.
For all of you that listen to our podcasts, we usually just shoot the shit. Talking about games or just life in general but we figured that we'd set this particular podcast up specifically for more personal topics. So please, listen and enjoy.
