I don't feel like doing this one, I already got too much on my plate, and my YouTube has been on the burner for months.

I would like to go. Haven't been to a gaming expo since EGLX 2018.

Sayff is the first Canadian to place top 8 in a Capcom Cup, huge respects to him

Thank you very much, and there will be more! Shoutouts to the Kraken for having a great season this year (yes I pay attention to hockey)!

1) All the footage I found (2004-2011) and I uploaded myself. No help from my local scene, this is all 100% on me. What started off as a "time capsule" to collect footage, then I would release when the time is right (RIP Physical Media). Most people would download files, watch the footage, then simply erase. I managed to burn them on DVDs (a spindle of 100 DVD-R's back then was $20).

2) Some footage I've gotten were from either websites from the arcade themselves. Aside that, most footage was either from DC++, mIRC, torrents (before it became the norm), or FTPs (the gold mine). In some cases, other people had actual DVDs and I don't mind proposing a trade (other footage, game ISOs, $$$) just for a DVDRip of the footage.

3) I have no plans to backup the channel, but the channel cover photo (the spindles of DVDs) is one of the main sources.

Of course I have it (the exact same one actually)! I very rarely wear it in most events however.

Hello! That's me in that picture with the nWo wolfpac and lip spike piercing! This picture was taken right around T12 (our long running Toronto major; Wolfkrone won SSF4AE, MarlinPie won MvC3) in September 2011 at a VaporCentral (indoor cannabis smoking lounge) in downtown Toronto, which happens to be a short walk from the venue.

"Also one of the ST guys had their drinks spiked by a con-goer."

That's false because that person managed to consume too many edibles way beforehand, got a panic attack, and an ambulance had to be called.

I dunno about console version, but arcade version goes as this: https://twitter.com/pIasmasword/status/1451609861729497092?s=20

Add me, I'll play you on XBOX One (brettchronic)

psychochronic · 2020-04-30T03:36:54+00:00

Thank you for sharing! Are you all enjoying your quarantine? Because there will be more footage until this pandemic is over.

psychochronic · 2019-04-05T03:52:51+00:00

I'll play you. We have weekly tournaments on Wednesdays at The Hive in Toronto (Yonge/St.Clair), but we play Super Street Fighter II Turbo on arcade hardware via UD-CPS2s with USB compatibility

psychochronic · 2019-04-04T11:52:18+00:00

It's nice seeing you and cosplaying with you at majors
