Salty just updated the MUGEN HUD. New font, timer, and the win counter is replaced by big numbers.

My only issue is that the power bar kinda sucks but I don't think it's too bad otherwise.

Nice. I was watching it yesterday but for some reason I was 20 seconds or more behind the streaming, so some of my bets didnt registered.

I like it. It's much cleaner than before, you can see the health bar of P2 behind the twitch logo, and there's invisible round glitch.

Also, Amber Lamps is one of my favorite characters now. Whoever designed it is a genious.

Today's SC was better than usual, even if it had a rocky start. Worth it to see
Giygas
use his anti-Berserk mechanic at least.

Salty also just instated a new bot called Waifu4u. If you type '!author' it tells you who made the characters currently fighting. Pretty helpful if you want to find certain ones.

I signed uo last month, went Illuminati, then lost interest a bit. But when I do go on, I can get hooked. I can hear the OBAMA shout in my head as we speak. If you go on during peak times and Sandstorm comes on, the chat is mental. A good round 5 hype with a clutch win is great. The odd upset where dreams come alive.

I need to see the new characters.

I sent in a new batch of characters/music but I think I didn't get it in early enough (My filehost said it wasn't downloaded), oh well.

Glad to see some decent KOF characters now, much better than all the AOF potatoes last update.

edit: Looks like they increased starting payouts too. I'm starting at $1269 now instead of 750ish.

I love new updates. :O

Update times are a really good time to bet if you're in the mines, since people don't know much about the new characters for a good 2 or 3 weeks. I was stuck in the below 10k limbo hell for a while and now I'm back over 70k.

Though I guess the SB site is having connection issues for some right now. Haven't been able to bet for the past hour or so.

It's not the sub-10k that fucks me, it's 10k-50k. Too far from the safety net to go crazy, but too far to make the money work.

edit: OH CHRIST at Fff. Sumo Michelle Obama and WRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRYYYYY!!!

I heard this odd sound cause I had another tab open thinking it was a potato fight and I came back to that

It was like the early Salty Mugen days all over again

Shaker Classic voting has also been added to Illuminati. You can vote for as many of the Shaker Classic queued matches that you wanna see first.

(Also vote all the YuriButtLoop matches please, kthx)

Sorry if this has been discussed before (I've been out of the loop for a long time), but this SaltyTime thing seems to be a competitor to SaltyBet that differentiates itself by matching up characters based on their skill level?

Lame circlejerk voting and the voting glitch aside, it was nice to watch a Shaker that wasn't Akuma/Mother/Barney every other match. If Salty works out some of the kinks this could go very well.

Salty finally implemented a tier for the OP stuff: X tier.
He also added an automatic retiering after a 3 w/l streak and B tier is now first to win 2 rounds.

I have to say these changes are pretty awesome.

Interesting; his algorithm for who's on deck can have alot of replays (which is good to get a good look at the character from many angles) can get out of control.

Remixing the brackets is going to be different; there's no longer "decent enough" P bracket characters to put good money on to smear the truly atrocious characters.

Kinda cool on the B-tier thing; that starts to eat into some actually interesting matches. I wonder how bad the "I WANT OP ALL THE TIME!" crowd has really gotten as the thing ages.

I like the sound of this, I'll have to check it out tonight. I think I'm still in the mines, though.

Heads up, Salty is currently updating the system. Looks like tourneys are back and exhibitions will run all day. We don't have too many details at the moment, but it seems to be a big change.
