lol well it was about a year of playing most lunchtimes and some after work games but I never played anywhere else. The main habit I'm trying to fix now is doing the stick motions too early in some combo's, with Gouken it was fine to do say j.hp, c.hp, ex dp motions instead of a s.hp as the crouching hp will also combo. If you see me doing an obvious j.hp land or karakusa to c.hp sweep I'm cursing on the other end, it should be a s.hp to hayate or ex oroshi knockdown.

Nice, someone has put up some hitbox data for her on srk. If you want to have a laugh check out the range on her command throws including ex 
no wonder that thing's easy to wiff.

Its £19.70 in Asda
Difficult to say really. I think I have pretty much reached my peak anyway with Ryu, I can FADC facing left or right pretty much close to 100% of the time, I am still learning the matchups vs the new characters so atm a half decent cody or thawk will beat me quite easily...
I wouldn't mind having a Dudley vs Deejay session tonight sometime?
I sent you an email Adz but hadn't heard from you. Did your brother get rid of the game after all?
I had a quick try on SSF4 yesterday but haven't really had a chance to get into it properly. Don't know if I'm imagining things but I feel like the timing for most of Sagat's moves has been slightly altered because I'm struggling to do things that I was pulling off nearly every time on the old SF4.
Also, like Cav was saying earlier in the thread I seem to have devloped a habit of jumping in the air when doing some motions with the stick which wasn't happening with SF4.
I think I'll have to go back to training mode and repeating the moves over and over until I stamp it out.

i really need to play with some of you guys and actually talk about how to improve... my play is improving but im falling into the same traps and not knowing how to come out of them 
adons a gimp , and i rely to much on his Jaguar Tooth to get close to ops and then get screwed.
i find once peps rush or start crossing over im screwed.
im getting used to poking with him and focusing but i feel im still missing a lot..

Sure, my DeeJay is terrible though as he's my first new character in over half a year!

adon..and only adon really.
I played with Adon, I liked him to an extent as he was a nice learning process. Jaguar Tooth is a good move to combo from. I just felt his jaguar kick and rising jaguar move lack a bit. Medium kick has good range, I got bored of him so moved to Ken.

anyone can play ken ... comeon dont be another ken newb...
I have come across MANY Kens, but only about 10% could actually play him. He is an awesome character in the right hands, requires skill to use. Kreeeee your mate who came down to Manchester with you, his Ken was impressive. I had one game against him and beat him but I probably got lucky.
Yeah well, that is true on a basis, if all the player does is spam shoryukens. I don't really play like that. I like to have a quick fast player and everyone seems to be kinda slow for me.
has anyone find a way to combo into akuma's new ultra? apart from the one in trial mode of course, because that one isnt very useful. i tried doing it off a focus cancel shoryuken, fireball (normal, ex, or red), tatsu (air or normal), and even normal attacks, but it doesnt hit. it cant even hit someone off a focus attack, because it take too long to start.
so disappointed with this move. i thought it would take akuma to another level.

There's a thread on srk about it, they are cancelling normal moves to teleport to U2.

interesting. but that execution is a nightmare for me. i cant do shoryuken properly with a stick!
