woohoo finally took a set off brgerflipr using my SV player, winning 7-5. i never should have broke at 5-5 and even after holding serve to win i still lost 1 more point overall! Watch out though people i think he's been practising his volleying it was very good today.

Unfortuntaly my last matches in ITST all ended in losses, was hoping to leave on a high but not to be :lol:

Lost to Norberto 4-6 6-4 6-3. I've always had rather close matches with Norberto but if I had a better serve, I expect this would have been more likely 3 sets of tiebreaks like our old matches used to be. He is just relentless with the attacking returns and there is no compromise in his game,just commits 100% to every shot and isn't put off if makes a couple of errors. He just has great self belief in his game which is impressive.

Played Baghdad Kebab afterwards and he won 3-6 7-6 6-4. I was up 3-0 in the second set tiebreak but Baghdad is so good at fighting for every point. Last set was a little crazy as there was a point where neither of us could hold serve but Baghdad eventually managed to get his game together before I could and served out for the win.

Finally I played JR and was spanked to say the least :lol:

He won 6-1 6-2 in a blowout. Not much to say about this one except JR is a quality player and the match was over in a flash.

I had several exhibitions today... I can't remember the scorelines but I was beaten by JR, Mack2300, Equitiesindallas, and Coolhand. I think most of the sets were tie-breaks but Mack beat me without needing any in something like 2 and 3.

:lol:

Now, now. I am not going to make any excuses for losing so much and also in a row in one day.

To add insult to injury i lost to random WT players as well.

It is probably worth mentioning that to cap off my less than successful night I was able to overhaul and win against Picachu 6-3 6-3.

Unfortunately there was some stuttery, stop/start lag. Also I actually timed my slice, returns and improved my movement in this match, so I cap off the night feeling a little more optimistic.

Aw I thought I would be the only to beat you today :lol:

It was obvious you were tired in our match and being a little too ambitious with your risk shots but I'll take the win :wink:

You played well. How is serve A working for you? I know it apparently isn't the best serve but I know how to use it, i don't think you should retire from ITST...

All the best then. And when are you gonna face me on Fight Night??

I only tried it out against the computer and I seemed to get the hang of double trigger slice quite quickly but still have trouble with trying to hit flat serves out wide. I feel your tips have helped though so I'll keep practising and rob, goa and djarvik said they will try and help out on my serving issues too so yeah I will keep trying and see what happens :wink:

As for Fight Night, I really want to max out the stats of my custom boxer first and then I will be ready for online :twisted:

How does online work? I mean do most people use their own boxers or the pros?

Oh dear... Umm, this might really annoy you.

I just made a boxer (Roger Federer) and took him online... i avoided legacy mode.

Basically, online, everybody's stats are leveled out so it is an even playing field. Obviously those with long arms are still slightly better suited on the outside and those with short arms on the inside... and if you chose a fast style you will still be quick and if power punches then still a touch slower, but basically there was never any need to go through legacy mode in the first place in terms of playing online with a custom made character. :oops:

You must not finish your custom Boxer before you play online...you can make the same boxer for online games with a full statistic and the skills shall automatic passed so you have the same Setup who your opponent! :wink:

But watch out Near is very good...have lose my 2 Fights about him and i not a worse Boxer :wink:

I played 1 set with Rob, this morning and lost i think 6-4, it was really early or really late, i dont remember. I do remember though that he had this one return to break me, and it was a short top spin shot but it was down the line and it bounced twice before i could even get there, and i was sprinting, its one of those returns, where you are like WOW!

Fun set though Rob
