As a continuation of our last thread, suggest players for the /vrm/ team
The M-308 Gunner from Metal Storm
Mobile Suit α from Side Arms.
How's this
>CF- Buriki Daioh
>CF- Nineball Seraph
>AM- Geppy-X
>LM- Temjin 747J
>RM- Impact
>DM- Kikaioh
>LB- Shatterhand
>CB- Gato
>CB- Gundam Pixie
>RB- Thexder
>GK- Police Robo
I think we should have Hot Scramble in over Pixie.
It was the very first Gundam game, meaning it's about as retro as Gundam games get.
>>15253817
Hot Scramble isn't the name of a MS
>>15253842
>Hot Scramble isn't the name of a MS
It is now
>>15253842
Literally so what? We don't have to be hyper specific down to the mech, especially in a franchise that is totally mecha.
In series like Sonic or Chrono Trigger where the whole game doesnt revolve around /m/ content it would make sense to pick specific memorable characters like Robo or Robotnik's Death Egg Robot, but there's no reason why we can't just appreciate retro games that are entirely /m/.
Besides, not like we can't just slap Zeta on the back of his jersey.
Shining Gundam
>>15253817
It was a fucking terrible game too
>>15253724
Heavy Lobster
So this is what we have so far. Note, we are working with the /vr/ management and they are taking suggestions from their fans so we can't make all the decisions.
>>15254032
Do they have a thread? I'm interested in seeing their discussion and I can't find it myself.
>>15254051
Not all boards can have threads; we're one of the lucky ones where it is tolerated to some degree, though as evidenced by our game day thread autosaging it's a finite degree.
Because of most other boards banning cup threads on sight a lot of interboard communication takes place in various discord and IRC channels.
>>15254092
I've noticed /m/ seems to be a good spot for inter-board shit considering how long the winter ball threads lasted here.
suggesting one of these
(havoc maybe ?)
>>15254051
/vr/ cup threads are nuked on sight. We usually have to start stealth retro soccer threads and hope the mods don't see it. That said, I believe most of the people that would be interested probably already browses /m/ (we've had lots of long-lasting mecha threads) so focusing the discussion here isn't that bad. There's always the discord and such too.
Xardion?
>>15256210
It's like Zeorymer and Xi Gundam's bastard child.
I love it
>>15254108
Very few boards are cup friendly. Barring /vg/ for obvious reasons, the ones that seem to be friendly are /sp/, /int/, /m/, /asp/, /toy/ (sometimes), /fit/, /mu/ and /pol/ (for what I could see). I think I saw threads in /o/ and /k/ as well. There may be more but I'm not sure.
>>15256223
Which makes sense, since Yasuhiro Moriki did the mecha design for the game.
congrats /fit/
Nominating Elecman for the Megeman Rep if one has not been decided.
Other random nifty names:
Rattrap (Beastwars)
Melan Blue (Brigadoon: Marin & Melan)
P-33 "Beepy" (NieR)
is there a broadcast/upload date yet?
>>15258866
>NieR
>Retro
HARO

So update on what we have so far. I added in Vulkaiser and Mystery of Convoy.
>>15259851
This list is not as Big or as Zammy as I would like.
>>15259851
some of these suggestions don't seem retro or even vidya to me at first glance
>Convoy
>not Comvoy
>>15259934
I thought about him too. GBA2 is retro.
>>15260015
To be fair, Geppy-X and Vulkaiser are from retro inspired games but I went through everything and it meets both team requirements.
>>15259851
>Temjin 747J (SRW)
A GM.
You always need a reliable jobber.
>>15260082
>Went through everything and it meets both team requirements
>Of 4 reps listed in >>15258866, Rattrap originated from a tv show that later got an obscure as hell video game adaption, nothing from Brigadoon has ever appeared in any video game, and NieR is less than 7 years old
Voting for Winter's Autie Awards is open

>>15260511
I didn't say I did a good job. This is what happens when you do this while also managing a turnleft broadcast.
Giving one final bump for any final suggestions. Poll should go up around Wednesday.
No Xenogears rep? It's retro right?
I think we should have one.
>>15260539
What about HK-47?
>>15264611
Sadly, not retro
>>15264643
How old is retro? KOTOR is 14 years old and looks hella dated to me.
>>15264659
Read /vr/'s sticky.
I feel like final fantasy has a lot of /m/ element, like a magitek armor for instance which gave us one of the greatest intro in video games history ?
>>15265283
Second. It's got a fair bit of steampunk, airships that go into outspace, flying drones, and the magitek yeah. Though do we go with the sprite version...
>>15265318
... or the Amano concept art version?
>>15265321
Jesus, that is appalling.
>>15265321
>>15265318
I personaly like the Amano version more, but the sprite version is somewhat more /m/.
Poll incoming
>>15269958
Was there a final decision on the /vrm/ logo or will that be part of the poll? There were two last I saw
>>15270009
Good question. Lemme check with the Council before we ship this out.
>>15270054
And we are. Here's the poll!
https://goo gl/forms/9ZJHiV7VWYYAgoO23
It'll probably run through this weekend.
>>15270170
>no Heavy Lobster
>>15270184
That's an oversight on my end, for that Heavy Lobster will added to the team so the top 22 will make it from the poll.
>>15270170
>leaving off Heavy Lobster
I know I'm officially uninvolved with TTC stuff for /m/ (outside of making logos) but this can't fucking stand
>>15270199
>>15270200
council lobster hivemind
Nu gundam
fin funnel 1
fin funnel 2
fin funnel 3
>>15270170
Aren't options 1 and 5 for the logo exactly the same?
>>15270283
No?
>>15270475
Never mind. I didn't notice the glaring difference.
Is out anthem with /vr/ going to be that funky song we used in the final of the 2016 babby we won?
>>15270170
there's a lot of stuff not in the poll that was suggested
How much stuff is auto-in? Or rather, how many open positions are up for vote?
>>15270170
>choice for Robo but not for Gato
https://youtu.be/2fsryis_2B0?t=7m4s
Also, the poll doesn't list where Police Robo is from (it's from Tail Concerto) and still has that Melan Blue choice that isn't from a video game.
>>15270717
Uhm, we are aware of the situation and may put up another poll to replace this/keep it running and discuss what to do with the missing players with /vr/ management. I apologize for becoming incredibly senile
>>15271772
I feel senile too. Still can't believe I forgot about Impact from Goemon...

Metal Gear D if we don't have it already.

Suggesting NOVA for the team.
Bump/friendly reminder that the FLGS 3 funvitational will be this weekend!
>>15276381
So tomorrow?
>>15279002
Yes. Tonight, today!
Guys, why are we jobbing so hard today?
>>15280103
Don't know lad, but it's putting a damper on my day here.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfgVPIrutvw
>>15280103
I told our tester to do a meme export and he did it.
>>15280172
The absolute madmanFor real though, I actually had fun with the match, we should meme harder, but just for this cup
I'm glad Gorg managed 2 saves
Well it was a fun day, I'm happy we at least get to hear trombe.

>>15276381
The what? What did I miss this time?
>>15282036
/m/'s recent colony drop
For fuck sake, why are we that shit? Get your shit together /m/ council.
We were pretty shit in the recent winter cup as well.
>>15283358
>Advance to round of 16
>Shit
Winter performance was solid but not amazing in my opinion.
Apparently the management leader sent in meme tactics for this invitational.
Not sure if it's gonna be the same today or if they'll set up something a bit more traditional.
>>15283372
>winter friendlies
2 losses
>winter cup
2 losses, 1 win, 1 draw
>flgs 3
3 losses
So, we're at 7 losses, 1 win, and 1 draw. That's solid to you?
It's just pure luck that we managed to stay in the winter cup. Other teams got relegated with similar results.
We CO/m/EBACK today?
>>15284088
nope
Fucking drop my colony already
>>15270170
This is what I get for playing vidyagaems instead of browsing 4chan for hours on end. I missed this thread and the chance to suggest a grayscale Alteisen.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmdhnJbXzfc
Also GOOD JOB WITH THE FLGS CUP, GUYS. Well, I'm not too salty because I like both /tg/ and /toy/. It's an invitational, not srs bznz.
