Don and Abe Next Up in Old-Schooled Season 1

On By FurlugeIn League News, League Season 1Leave a comment

Abraham ForosanThe dates have been set for October’s events in Season 1 of the Old-Schooled league. Don will be facing the challenge on Monday 13Sep2014 at 6pm and Abe will be giving it his all Sunday 26Sep2014 at 3pm. Don is of course the league commissioner and he’s been practicing. Abe is an Old-Schooled league veteran and has participated in more Old-Schooled events than anyone else. He came in first on the lost 21st tournament after the Herzog Zwei debacle,  he came in 2nd place on the 12th tournament, and 6th tournament, the first tournament to use a two-round structure and he was the first to face off against Evan in a final round. He is also the only current League player to have survived the dreaded Shaq-Fu challenge from the 4th tournament. He’s been around for most of the firsts of Old-Schooled, so it’s only fitting this veteran is here for the first season of the league!

Good luck to both of you this month. You can come see these events live at That Game Store in person or watch them on twitch.tv at Furluge’s and That Game Store’s channels!

Tramell “GeneralRoxus” Lowry’s Beginner Trial Results

On By FurlugeIn League News, League Season 1Leave a comment

On September 22nd, 2014 Tramell Lowry kicked off the Old-Schooled league at ThatGameStore when he took on the four challanges for the Beginner round of Season 1. Here’s how he did.

Player Date
Sonic &
Knuckles
Ms.
Pac-Man
Star
Force
LoZ
LTTP
Tramell "General Roxus" Lowry 22SEP2014 2 Acts 5,970 75,900 26:15

Tramell’s best performance of the night would be Star Force where Tramell had stated he had spent the most time practicing. His performance in Sonic & Knucles was good in Mushroom Hill Zone but sadly took a dive in the Flying Battery Zone with it’s difficulty spike. Where he had perhaps the most difficulty was with The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past where it was his first time playing the game, leading to a lot of time spent learning the way the game played instead of advancing along at full speed. Next month we have Don “Furluge” Scherig and Abraham Forosan scheduled to take on the Beginner round where they’ll see if they can’t beat Tramell’s scores.

After a long Hiatus I am proud to announce that Old-Schooled is once again returning in the form of the Old-Schooled league. The Old-Schooled section of the site has been completely revamped including the new League Standings page with a list of all the current players in the league, the challenges they will be facing, and what their performance was after their trials. I would like to thank everyone who has signed up and I hope you we’ll get even more signups now that the league has started. To learn more about the league head over to the Old-Schooled page.

It’s almost the 3rd Sunday in August and that means Old-Schooled time is coming around yet again, and that means it’s time to tease you all with a secret game hint. Old-Schooled #12 is an all request tournament, so even the games from the secret list have been pulled from suggestions. Good luck to everyone this time around.

Time sure does fly by, and Old-Schooled has already had ten tournaments under its belt. And for the tenth tournament in the series I wanted to do something special, and that’s where not only this challenge for the tournament comes from, but also where the video comes from. Featured in this video is Evan Small as himself, Abraham Forosan as the Cameraman, and myself as, well, myself, and Abaddon. Music this time around is the Pixel Peeker Polka provided by http://incompetech.com and Deathborn’s theme from F-Zero GX.

Old-Schooled April and May Promos

On By FurlugeIn Tournament NewsLeave a comment

Whoops, once again I’ve proven my inability to update my page with normal updates as I get wrapped up in things. So sorry about that. For those of you who don’t already know this I’ve been expanding the Old-Schooled presence on the internet, adding a facebook group for it. Eventually I plan to move information about the tournament here as a permanent archive, but that’s still in the works. But anyway, here’s the last two promos for tournaments. Yes, they’re ads, but they’re fun to watch too.

Normally I don’t post these, so perhaps I’m tooting my own horn a little bit here, but if you look at my youtube channel you’ll notice there’s a lot of promotional videos for Old-Schooled, a gaming tournament I host in the area. It’s something I have a lot of fun doing, and since I like video editing, it was really a matter of time before I decided to put some of it down to film. The following video though, I’m pretty happy with, as it’s literally an advertisement for the next tournament that I think turned out really well. So well in fact that I’m happy to share it here. Enjoy.
