An option would be to ask the Genshiken guys if they’re organising stuff and 
just ride those coattails. The varsity should have big enough areas. Just not 
sure on what they do about net connections and streaming.

On an unrelated note, we still don’t have a venue organised for the Evo

Thanks fer the words of wisdom Nic. Much appreciated :)

I didn't know that f+BD can hop over ground fireballs. That's really cool. 
Makes sense but it definitely wasn't something I picked up on.

I'll remember that df+A is good for anti-airing purposes. I've only ever used 
it as a combo extender into argentine backbreaker *lol*

Ummm.....
His EX gatling can be "free cancelled" into another special.
He can finish launch combos with an air throw, like Mai.
He can use the f+BD to hop over ground fireballs.
df+A is a "good" anti air.
...that's all I got.

I've noticed :P I've actually been on the receiving end of it so I know how 
effective it can be :(

Here's one of the throw setups I have (mid-screen):

Argentine Backbreaker (with qcf+C followup), f+BD into super hop j.B, Argentine 
Backbreaker, rinse and repeat. It looks like Clark goes through (or just 
slightly above) the opponent during j.B and ends up on the opposite side.

The recovery from the j.B is so quick that it appears that Clark is still 
airborne when the throw comes out. I can alternate between the B and D versions 
depending on the opponent's tendencies. Or I could just do nothing and see what 
happens. Came across it by chance when I was messing around with Clark's jumps 
and it seems to work quite well. Might have limited application against a wary 
opponent but it should be quite effective in the beginning :)

I have yet to explore all of his options but that will come with time. I just 
need a functional Clark for now and I think I have that *lol*

You should add this then.
Standing CD
Just do it when your opponent has been floored.
It kills many wakeup attempts, and Clark is technically airborne during it too. 
 Then you can cancel it with a F+BD and put the fear of god into your opponent 
with 3 special throw mixups, an EX machinegun combo, well pretty much all 
options he has.

Yup, that's the idea.

Iori is the battery for the team. I'm glad LB suggested I play him because his 
confirms are really easy and lead to good damage. Ryo does ok with 2-3 bars. 
Clark is an absolute monster with 5 and full drive meter. His range is an issue 
but at that point I'm in gamble mode anyway. All I really need to do is just 
land one hit.

Your team gets and more damage from 1st to last. But you have to get closer to 
your opponent after each loss.
Clark is a problem with meter. His range is an issue.
Ryo has good range and uses some meter.
EX Iori has great range and builds meter.

Btw, I've been working on those KOF combos LB. I've also added Clark to my 
team. He's actually not that difficult to use. I even have a 100% HD combo with 
him and legit throw setups after knockdown.

My team order is going to be a little different now but I think I can make it 
work. I'll be free in Blaz but I'll definitely try my best not to be free in 
KOF *lol*

If memory serves, the suggestion tabled by Lumi is that we subtract 'Points 
Given Up' from 'Points Scored' and add it to 'Game/Set Wins' for the final 
result. Lumi, please correct me if I'm wrong.

The reason it's like that it's because the Japanese have problems pronouncing V 
so often they write it as a B.   As Manase said, Japan doesn't actually have 
words with a V, but since the introduction of Western terms into their 
vocabulary they were forced to create a symbol for it.  Still, in most cases 
they prefer to use a B.  When they know what the word means, they'll translate 
it correctly.  For example, Forever is "foeba" in Japanese, but it's common 
enough for them to know it so translate it with a V.  Interestingly enough, 
even in the original Japanese, they write Mohammad Abdul's name with a V (ヴ) so 
even when it's translated, it's still Avdol.  Westerners know they mean Abdul 
though.  The same thing happens with L and R.  Japanese call Rolento "Lorento", 
presumably because they associate with the Italian name "Lorenzo".  In Jojo's 
Anjuro is more commonly known as "Angelo".  At the end of the day it just boils 
down to how familiar they are with the words and names.
I've never realised how many of the Jojo's characters are named after music 
artists/songs.
Vanilla Ice
Steely Dan
Kenny G
Funny Valentine
Telence T. Darby (should obviously be Terence)
Iggy (Pop?)
Enya [Gail]
Foo Fighters
Love the names in Jojos though.  Whoever came up with the name "Weather Report" 
is a genius.

Avdol is how Japanese read and pronounce Abdul but not how the name is written.
So what we see and here in games/anime is the mispronunciation of the name
