Tournaments and Videos

So lately I've been pretty occupied doing random stuff to get ready for Planet Zero's weekly tournaments and making a video for A-Kon. For those that don't know, Planet Zero holds tournament every week for Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition and Marvel vs Capcom 3. In addition to writing random crap on my blog, I also write articles for Examiner.com about those tournaments and other gaming events. I also write a column about Video Game Babes and the girls who dress up as them. Hey! I can picture you rolling your eyes! Stop that!


My other thing I do is make random videos. Somewhat for fun, but also because I'm very interested in the whole process and would eventually like to do something career wise with it. Below are a couple of videos from my Youtube and Facebook channels I enjoyed making the most. I know they aren't masterpieces by any stretch of the imagination, but I don't care. Anyhow, I'm working on a new project that will hopefully be ready to be shown at A-Kon in Dallas. I have some of my friends involved and a script pretty much 90% done, so wish me luck!

So last night Planet Zero had their post Anime Matsuri encore party. As you can see from the pics below, it was extremely packed and cramped and wild in there. If you were into cosplay, there was a contest for it; J-fashion, there was a model pose off; gaming, its PZ! All in all it was a pretty hectic and fun night.




But it didn't end there. Me and my friends Vineet, and Jamail went to the Orbit Room in downtown Houston to check out the return of this past Club AM DJ, the beautiful Heavygrinder! Well, to be honest the club was a piece of crap building, but it had some lights... a table... some speakers... yeah, no it sucked. We started off getting shafted with a $15 cover charge to a club that we needed to get patted down for. Vineet told me it was the first time in his life he had ever been patted down. Same for me. This was only moments after we saw a police cruiser zip by with lights flashing. We walk in a see a lonely DJ spinning in the front room, I mean really lonely, there were like 2 people standing around listening to him spin. We got beers($5 a pop!? Really?!) and checked out the back room. There was another DJ spinning to warm up the crowd, but sadly there wasn't much of one. Where was everybody? Apparently, in the back patio either smoking or chilling. Yup, definitely worth the $15.

About a minute later we see an ambulance pull up. The ushers and owners came flooding into the back asking who called for an ambulance. It was pretty funny how they immediately came out back cause there was NOBODY INSIDE! After about 10 minutes everybody realized it was a hoax and were all equally pissed I'm sure. Then Heavygrinder came in! She's been a guest DJ at Club AM for the past 3 years so she's gotten to know the AM staff pretty well. Hugs all around for us and some of her fans. Soon it was showtime. We all grabbed more drinks and headed to the back room for the performance. Everybody out back did too, the room was filled. Nothing but glow in the dark bikinis and heavy bass for the next hour! I will admit I was a little faded at this point, but I do remember Nathan showing up saying we ditched him, Juan(Fallen) and company poppin in and saying how they were regulars at this joint, Vineet going gaga over this asian chick wearing wings, and the Raver chick in the cut up Deadmau5 shirt that really filled it out nicely. IHOP with the PZ crew DJ Tito finally making an appearance after turning Viet for an evening, and then watched Mike U, Daniel(Last Blade) and Marcus(Nytemare Raven) mash on AH3 before calling it a night.
