  1. Was a no-nudes rule implemented in this thread? I haven't seen anything but family-friendly corn in this thread for months now.

    Nude korn would be treading that thin line between korny and plain ol' slutty.

    And with this I vote for a third azn girl thread. Full on slut edition. Would fit the missing niche that both this and the waifu thread can't fulfill.

  2. yo is playing squash for an hour, hour and a half on my lifting days going to affect my gains? im like 2.25 months into stronglifts, and when i play squash its usually 130-140 bpm for the whole time

    Don't stress over it. Just make sure you're keeping track of your progression with photos/measurements. If you're not hitting the size you want just add calories. Shouldn't have to sacrifice things you enjoy for a slightly better body. This whole bb thing takes years anyway.

  3. funny, i restarted cowboy bebop today, up to episode 10 already...

    writing mini reviews after each episode, im gonna do that for every show from now on.

    Mind posting them? I'd be interesting in hearing your thoughts.

  4. too bad they lost to boring ass fei... fucking hate kazunoko too

    didn't get to watch marvel... heard the japanese were showing jwong mad love though

    grandfinals looked like a pool match. extremely anticlimactic.

    My SBO thoughts and my experience :

    To be honest, I have been very disapppointed with Tougeki SBO and what it became. By telling my thoughts, I hope they're going to change the way they're running this tournament. Otherwise they will not see many foreigners players anymore. And it’s a pity, knowing Tougeki has always been my dream tournament since I was a child… I was very sad I didn’t recognize

    it at all.

    Justin Wong is mentionning he'll never come back again to SBO, and he's been there several times already and I fully understand from what I've seen today, and I regret not to have known previous Tougeki by myself. But I can tell my opinion.

    As many players, I’ve watched videos and pictures from SBO so I had an idea of the atmosphere. But this year, it's just TOO different from what i've seen. And it's a sad reality for me to notice that they have lost their spirit, so I couldn't live the same tournament I've watched before from home. When you watch EVO video for example, the tournament is even more amazing once you're there and you can't wait for next year. But here...I don't want to come back in Japan for SBO if they don't change rules, conditions and place.

    THE PLACE : First of all, the tournament is TOO FAR away from Tokyo. The place I stay is in center of Tokyo, and I took 2h30 to get to the tournament city. And once you get there, you have to take the shuttle and wait again 30min. Really, 3hours is too much and the transport to get there is also very expensive, at least 40$ round trip. I don’t understand why they moved Tougeki from Tokyo to there. I would not believe it’s because it lacks of money, especially since there is no cash price for players and the streaming is pay per view (25$?)…thousands of people pay for it so I’m sure they can have a good place in Tokyo. After the tournament, when I talk to people, they only say "I'll never come back again", then they're going back home taking more than 3hours again, it's understandable.

    THE CONDITIONS : Then, It is not normal for players and spectators who pay 45-80 dollars (1-2days) to enter and participate @ SBO, to play outside under 95°F (35°C). The spectators also, have to watch the matches under the sun. Really, I’ve tried watching other games matches, I was thinking so many times I would have been better at home watching it instead of being there. It was a pain for everyone, players and spectators. It’s very sad to see the scene was not crowded of spectators compared to previous Tougeki. The weather hot and humid make everybody feeling very tired and not confortable, it was very hard to enjoy matches…so how do you want to make spectators enjoying and stay 10hours at least under the sun to watch the tournament ?

    Another big problem for players : The sun is not only very hot, it makes glare on the screens since we’re playing outside!!!! Seriously, I have played on the Last Chance tournament screens to train a bit, and it was very hard to see. I heard some players even had to hide the sun with umbrella so that they could see the screen. Honestly it sounds stupid, but if you have to play tomorrow and that the weather is sunny like today, do it if you can.

    Stick/Controller problem : Actually, I thought we could bring our own stick/controller to the tournament since it’s now in console (for SCV, UMVC3…), then I brought mine and I’ve heard just there we can’t play with our own stuff.

    I wasn’t happy to see that the down direction of the stick wasn’t working for me, they brought me another stick but…I really don’t understand why we can’t play with our stick ? If it’s to gain time, then I’m sure they’re actually losing more time because the players want to make sure that the stick they’re playing with is working fine.

    I’ve seen I wasn’t the only one who met problem with that, but also CRNA Ruka : He was actually going to win his match with a CE (ultra), then during the CE animation, he pressed “Startâ€â€¦but it’s because of the layout of the stick he used, the Start button is just next to the regular buttons so it’s really easy to press it especially if you’re not used to it. With Start or not, he would have won the match so it was obviously not in purpose, even saying it’s because the layout,they rematched the round. I thought this decision was hilarious, it’s not as if it confused his opponent’s mind since the CE would have killed him anyway.

    Then, another match is Kami Chang against the Viola’s player (name?), I don’t know what happened exactly, but it seems his stick had a problem during the match so they had to rematch it ENTIRELY. I also didn’t get why they rematch the entire match and not the round. (It was 2-2 when the problem was noticed)

    This tournament definitely needs to change rules and conditions to attract more people and gain players confidence again.

    I discussed with Shen Chan (EVO2k12 Vice Champion) and we both agree that Tougeki is definitely not a tournament for foreigners, first for the FT1 rule and then for the conditions I’ve seen today. The conditions to play have never been that worse, and I've been to many tournaments to experiment. And I’m sure they have the potential to make it one of the best world tournament, and not just the biggest Japanese tournament.

    CONCLUSION : Hopefully they can hear the players thoughts to reconsider what “Tougeki†is. But I want to believe it’s definitely not the tournament I’ve experimented today.

  6. Fuck Mark Rippitoe.

    just paid for a university gym and really want to get into this. i don't even know where to start. I want to find some schedule so i can follow that regime.

    my main goal is to bulk up (be 140-150lbs by the end of this month).

    I personally always recommend a few weeks of calisthenic training before you start a heavy weight lifting program. But since you've already purchased a membership I'd recommend Iron Addicts simple power based routine. Probably the best routine for beginners, and even intermediates make significant gains.

  7. Okay just an update.

    The jacket was originally worn by Charly. Him and I have nearly identical frames (same height, similar weight. 5'8'' 190-196lbs) We're both a bit muscular, so when I decided to purchase the jacket I didn't need measurements because I knew it'd fit me. Personally I'm awful at measuring articles of clothing other than raw denimzzz. I think this jacket would best fit someone that has an athletic frame. It's not for ridiculously skinny people.

    Here are some extra pics, off the jacket and scuff respectively.

  8. Any recommendations?

    I've just recently finished Paranoia Agent and East of Eden

    Darker Than Black season 2, then 1 then the OVAs. Season 1 is my favorite anime of all time. Dat Yoko Kanno soundtrack. Season 2 and the OVAs are trash but I understand not everyone feels that way. Watch them first so you won't be let down like so many of us were.

  9. Hello. I have a ToJ Double Riders jacket for sale. I believe the size is 46. I don't know why I put this size down. I dont have the exact size since I purchased it off Charly and we share a similar frame.

    Pit to pit 19.5ish, shoulder to shoulder 17-17.5ish

    Arm length is about 25-26 inches, Back length is about 24-25 inches, front length is 25-26 inches.

    This jacket has been previously owned by Charly(psychomeat/mrchairybrown). I've only had the opportunity to try the jacket on, but I have never worn it. There is some wear in the jacket, but it adds detail to this beautiful piece. There is one scuff on the right shoulder.

    I have a fit pic which is attached. I'm looking for $425 shipped in the cont US.
