    Hey guys, we just created a subgroup of OGS called CMUken. As for what CMUken is, it's a group dedicated to fighting games. The great thing about CMUken is that not only do we have players from CMU, but we also have players from the whole Pittsburgh community so there's more competition for everyone.
    We play any sort of fighting game from Street Fighter and Marvel vs Capcom, to Blazblue and Jackie Chan. We play pretty much anything as long as you bring it so feel free to bring any sort of game.
    We also have a facebook group for CMUken so feel free to join ^^

    Here's a link that shows all the meetings of CMUken

    Location: Generally, these events will be in the Connan Room or the Danforth Lounge. Both are in the University Center on campus and are pretty easy to find. If you need help, there's signs and the information desk to help you find it. Sometimes our meetings are in Hamburg Hall so make sure you check on the link.

    When: Always on Thursday nights. The starting time varies from 7 to 8:30 so make sure to check the schedule to make sure that you know when it starts.

    Equipment: We have 4 monitors, and a couple of CRTs that we have, 4 360s and one PS3 and but, not that many copies of games, so if you guys can bring consoles/games that'd be great. And as usual, bringing your own sticks is needed cause we don't have sticks to provide you guys with :< As for games, bring what you want to play, and we'll decide when we have all the games out there.

    Some other info: We'll be having ranbats every so often. As of right now, we don't know exactly how often they'll be, but we will definitely have them. We're also going to have streaming and recording so if you want something recorded or streamed, we should be able to do that.
    Also, the shoryuken thread for pittsburgh is here. The first post is pretty outdated, but look towards the end of the thread to see anything else going on.

    Hope to see you there Very Happy

    Gonna derail this thread with Smash Bros talk~

    In addition to the traditional fighting games CMUken will be playing, there are a couple among us who are active Smash players (mostly Melee, a couple Brawl) for those who are or might be interested. Contact me or Laudandus for that; we're the go-to guys for Melee at CMU.

    Also, and this applies in general, all you need to start playing is an interest in the game. The Smash and fighting game communities in CMU and Pittsburgh at large are extremely welcoming to anyone showing interest. Speaking for the Smash side of things, Laudandus and I have a lot of fun just playing casually as well under tournament rules (10 stocks, 2.0 damage ratio, Lightning Melee Captain Falcon only on Brinstar for example), and we love getting to meet more players, so don't be shy!

    (Also as a personal plug, I will play BlazBlue with anyone, so fun~)
