Usually GB gets everyone to show up to one every year...and I've always missed it.

I think this year I'm just gonna go to the crazy huge Caeser's buffet and try and convince vulva to come too. Not sure who else is going but they're welcome.
I would be up for going but I generally don't have much free time on Friday and Saturday due to other obligations. :\ And if we were choosing buffets to go to, I would push for either the Bellagio's or the Wynn's. They're both on the pricey side but given how much most of the buffets on the strip cost anyway, the upgrade is worth it.

Fake fake edit: I completely forgot that Caesar's very recently remodeled their buffet... hrm....

(RIP Gold Coast's $5 breakfast buffet at the years Evo was at the Rio -- that was a lifesaver when you had early-ass pools.)

Went to Wynn last year and it was fantastic. So damn good and I had to roll myself back to LVH. Somehow Caeser's is even more expensive than Wynn but damn it looks like it'll be worth it.

Learning a language is just a product effort over an extended period of time. People act like it requires some magical talent that some people just don't have, which is bullshit. It just requires more time/effort than many people are willing to put in so they make excuses. You see the same thing when people say they'll never be good at fighting games.

Is that the Bacchanal Buffet or w/e? I'm planning on going there Saturday night of Evo.

I've heard it's off the charts.

Thanks. It should be a blast.

I'd say I'd actually try and make it to the GAF buffet thing but I don't think GB is going this year to organize it.

Yeah, probably not making it this year. I'm moving to the East Bay around EVO time so my schedule's used up that weekend.

I will be at Capcom Cup, though, if everybody wants to meet up for Brenda's French Soul Food down the street or something.

I'd be down if I go next year. Once I get a job after this summer, definitely going to start saving up.

Sad to hear about Prog. :(

Really enjoyed his commentary but totally understand his decision.

Also, you guys need to try speaking Finnish. Though to be fair, unlike English, Finnish orthography and pronunciation is quite consistent.

Geez... image issues much? Watching (or playing) anime doesn't change who you are and neither does loudly protesting it. Folks aren't better or worse for it. They're still just the folks they always were.

Let her watch anime and learn japanese. Its harmless and actually pretty useful in general to know some japanese and to have an angle over what sorts of media the japanese grew up on. Gives you insights into the themes their heroes and such revolve around and it lends you a bit of insight into how they dream and what sort of mindsets their idealised person centers on. At least she'll be able to tell what sort of tech is being yelled about on Nico Nico videos of japan only tournies one day.
It was a joke man.

Also thanks to Dahbomb for his help.
Glad I can be of service.

Yeah reading can be very tricky. The speaking and understanding wasn't too bad.

Nice. I'd totally be down a Evo GAF night out or whatever. It'll be my first time in Vegas and I could use some knowledge and company.

Damn, we're really close, aren't we? Haha.

Well you're welcome to come along for sure. I was thinking Friday around 6ish.

So far it'll be me and my girl, vulva and Mrs vulva, Chavelo, and a couple of local friends

Not sure what drama is going on in the Smash community but its a shame if Prog had a chance to commentate EVO but was denied. At least that's what I understood to have happened? Was someone promised the commentary spot beforehand and skipped?

Pretty cool Ryu Smash 4 combo video.

@1:58 in:
"White Skin is Better"

errrrrr I'm assuming something is lost in translation since the video maker is French (next part vs. Yoshi talks about "Perfect Skin") or its a reference to Ryu's actual karate outfit but what an awkward thing to write in English :/

Awesome - that sounds great.

It'll be me and my girlfriend. PM me with whatever you need from me. We're down for whatever.

Helppo kieli on :p

Pitäisiköhän kaupata joku Viikate-korvamato tai vastaava ja jättää ne kitumaan sen kourissa?


Finnish is an easy language, trust me ;)

Besides, if you learn Finnish you can understand what they sing in songs like these:

This is what combo videos have been missing all this time. I think a barely noticable "kill the foreign devils" message wouldn't be out of place in desk's next video.
