I missed the last matches on both streams to go watch that sorry Ultimate Fighter Finale.
Wow, that Fanatiq guy won $47 in MVC2. That is crazy. Could one of the Texas pimps post the top 8 at Absolute. I saw Find in there. I want to know how my boy did.
As far as the streaming goes, I think it's great period. Haunts and crew were the real trendsetters, as far as SFIV goes (Keystone Light). But Gootecks/So Cal have definitely started to catch on. The East seemed to be the last to jump on the fad.
I think Nor Cal Regionals and the L.A. Riots are the flag bearers right now from the perspective of quality. Gootecks is definitely trying to bring an air of professionalism to the streams.
Seb and FADC are definitely the work horses right now though. And with the East Coast talent, Yipes for occasional commentary, Seb for straight man and Hu for color and insight, they've definitely captured my interest.

Stream shots fired. Everyone should continue stepping it up, I love it.
I want 2010 SSF4 streams to look like Who Wants to be a Millionaire.

I haven't been playing Street Fighter IV with any regularity, so my play is uneven at best, going up against people who clearly are is kind of frustrating. I lost every match I played tonight. Some were fun, close matches, others not so much. I couldn't punish the obvious stuff and got absolutely wrecked in quite a few matches.
One thing was nice, didn't encounter any Ken's for the first time in forever. A Sagat, a Ryu, a Seth (my first, and what an asshole this guy was), an Abel and a Vega. I didn't even know how to match up against a Vega. I had no idea of what to expect.

FADC is on. They're just running casuals at the moment.
I'm having problems watching it.
And the L.A. Riots are going to be uploaded to bitorrent. I also think I heard the host say it might be recorded on justin.tv

Click on december 5th and you're right and the start of the event.

Yeah, the recording is already up on justin.tv. I take back what I said about SoCal tourneys not being recorded; all these ustream and justin streams are automatically archived. I didn't know about this because finding them is not intuitive (I didn't know the sites chop up the recordings into 5 minute bursts and you can click on arrow buttons to see the entire event)

Is there any way to see the NEC stuff from last night?

I don't think so. You can check on FADC a few days from now, and it should be posted.
It seems like Gootecks has fallen off the SF planet. He says he hasn't been playing. His boxer doesn't seem as crisp as Crackfiend, Eduardo Perez or Kino's.
Not to mention he hasn't been producing SF Podcasts.

Who's running NEC? It seems odd that they're not showing the losers' brackets on the main stream.

What's going on in this NEC tournament? How far are they from finals? This seems a bit disorganized and chaotic.
I've been meaning to write this for a long time but never had enough time to look through enough footage to find examples.
Street Fighter Footsies Handbook, Chapter 1
Nobody really talks about footsies in concrete terms so i'm trying to change that, because the ground game is still the most important aspect of Street Fighter. This stuff usually takes years to learn. I'll try to write more of these whenever i can. I hope you guys find it useful.

Fanatiq won 47,000 actually, not 47 haha. I made top 8(losers), but then lost $210 on the MvC2 match, got on tilt, then lost a bunch of MM's, and then lost in the opening round of the team tourney. Pretty ugly.
Toan was up 14-11, then some how fanatiq pulled out 4 wins in a row, it was stupid. The whole room was packed (and it was a huge room) and the noise level was through the roof. After fanatiq won, it was just complete silence except for Hevad Khan yelling in joy. We were all pretty crushed. I'll post vids when they come up.
I'm heading out to the top 8 finals now.
Sorry about the lack of stream, AT&T pulled out in the last moment.

I JUST came in to say that, wow man... :lol
And it sucks that I missed the two tourneys last night, I was out all night...

I'm going to check if this works in a bit, but I really hope that it becomes standard practice to keep an archive of the stream for peeps that aren't at home...

Damn. Because of the stupid chatter in the stream, Seb cut the stream off. They should just turn the feature off. You already know there are going to be idiots who hide behind the anonymity of the internet to act like idiots.
