I'm going to have to bail before I even get started, kiddo with an ear infection refusing to fall asleep

Sorry guys, the last several days/weeks have been nuts for me.

 

on the plus side, I finally bought Sanwa parts to go into my Hori stick. They should be in today, and I’m really excited to swap them and play with a proper stick and snappy buttons again.

 

I should be more available from tomorrow evening onwards

I have a HRAP3Sa and the Sanwa parts make a huge difference. You're gonna love it.

 

Hecatom and I had some great matches last night, lot of close and real tense rounds in there.

Yeah, I had put Sanwas in my old Drone that I had before selling it to fund my Hitbox, and am not a huge fan of the Hayabusa parts in my new Fighting Edge - the stick often bounces past neutral hitting the opposite direction, and the buttons are mushy. Can’t wait to hear the Sanwa “clack” again. My Hitbox has them, but I’m playing everything with my stick these days (except for NRS games anyway)

My wife ended up getting me a Quanba Dragon that is easily the best stick I've ever played on but it doesn't have the Sanwa click lol! My only complaint about it, but it's an awesome stick and I wish I could mod it into a hitbox because I'd love to use it more.

Oh man, I'm gonna have to go over these later lol! Thanks for recording them!

[Hecatom]

Gonna take some time to upload the matches I recorded, but I will be posting them as they are done 👍

The finish on that second match was hilarious 😂

[Sonero]

Man, this game plays so weird and I love it.

Each SamSho game is pretty different past 2. It's taken me a long time to adjust to this game

I am finishing to upload the rest, yesterday I got sidetracked with something else, so I didn't upload anything 😅

This game is so goddamn sick.  Too many people dismissed it after seeing Tung's Crossup Flex that they didn't learn the other mechanics like dash cancel and block cancel that help you even the odds.

Are we trying to have a SamSho lobby going this weekend?

[Hecatom]

I am down for a lobby, but there is a chance that I will have a family reunion on saturday, so if it happens, I will probably have to leave early, or worse, not be there.

Tomorrow I am planning to have some matches with a friend, so we could make one tomorrow or even today, if people are free.

[Mattatsu]

I could do later tonight or Saturday night

[Reticently]

There might be a window of time I could get games in tonight, but Saturday night is way more open for me.

[DoctaMario]

Saturday sounds good to me

[DoctaMario]

I'm planning on 8:30, give or take a little if my kids need something of course.

[Mattatsu]

Sorry guys, I’m not sure if I can play tonight, my Internet has been real wonky since last night. I’m going to try a few things and see if it gets any better

Keep us posted. I'll leave a spot open for you in the lobby just in case

[Reticently]

@DoctaMarioI'm booting up the ps4, should be available shortly 

[DoctaMario]

Invites sent. I sent you one too @Soneroujust in case

[Reticently]

I've got a system update taking its sweet ass time installing, probably another few minutes

All good. No one else is in yet

Jfc, remember when consoles were supposed to be the "easy" alternative to PCs?

Man, in the ranges where Amakusa's strong, all of Cham's options are so slow
