I dunno. personally I think youre gonna be a great dad and that trumps anything else

<p>I beileve that both execution and mind games are both needed in order to win much more difficult opponents. Sure the DP thing proved that it can work, but I can’t really see it as a viable option against really high top players. From my point of view, the ken player covered only distances as much as possible without exposing any sign of weakness. But what happens is, when that person finds a way around it such as blocking correctly and finding those moments when you rely only on execution, they’ll expose you for that. Now, it’s not a bad stragety when all you want to do is expose little of yourself and pressure your opponent constantly without a break. My point is that you have to have both execution and mind games consistantly good together if you ever have hopes of breaking someone. Especially top players.</p><p>I also disagree that execution and mind games are equal. They’re both seperated that need to co-operate with each other in order to develop yourself as a better player. Where the mind games are more visual, deduction based, feelings, critical thinking, anything physical or emotional feedback and the rest is execution, skill factor, timing, fundementals, anything else that lets you totally understand what the hell you’re doing. If those two are not meeting up in the graphs and getting better at the same time, you won’t be able to develop your skills and neither your mindset. </p>

Your farts smell like gay doods be paying rent to stay in your poop loft. Don’t ask how I know what that smell is.

Hey Raiden<div><br></div><div>U r faget</div>

I’ll ask them to bring Febreze next time

To FakeSteve: I don’t intend any disrespect to you. The anger I feel when I lose and the apathy I feel when I win are major reasons I retired. When I blow up, it’s directed at myself regardless of who my opponent is. When I lost to you at Jon’s, I felt like the worst player in the world and was just wasting space there. Yes, I understand how that insults everyone I beat, but that is never my intent. It’s just what goes through my head.<div><br></div><div>I haven’t played a single round of SF or any other fighting game since that night.</div>

Ok fair enough, I’ll try not to take it so personally

The weird thing is that I have a much more controlled temper at work. Good thing too, considering how insufferable teenagers (and parents) can be. I guess it’s another sign that I’m just not cut out for competitive gaming.<div><span style=“font-family: ‘lucida grande’, ‘Lucida Sans Unicode’, tahoma, sans-serif; line-height: 1.7em;”><br></span></div><div><span style=“font-family: ‘lucida grande’, ‘Lucida Sans Unicode’, tahoma, sans-serif; line-height: 1.7em;”>It’s strange how Mahir was the only person that never made me rage after losing.

Well of course you bodied me. I was a scrub back then. Even I will admit that your were better than me. I’ll even go as far to say that you’d probably STILL body me at 3S today. I expect nothing less from a guy who placed 9th at EVO. </span></font><span style=“font-size: 10pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.7em;”>ST is a different story now though.</span><div style=“font-size: 10pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal;”><br></div><div style=“font-size: 10pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal;”>You don’t care enough to play me? That’s fine (but a shame it is). I’m dying to find out if well timed/spaced ground dash punches actually beats lariats. I think I have a solid strategy against Gief players now - even if it is just doing ground dash punches over and over. No matter. I’m going to Japan soon, to train and level up. Hopefully I can track down Pony and find out once and for all.</div>

Im sure the projector would lag like crazy. Would be pretty sweet though!

I did some reading on it, it depends on the projector. Probably similar to LCD lag.If there’s interest I can call them and ask or even try it out to see how it feels before renting it.

I have an itching to play marvel. Who wants to get some games in right now?<br>
