Tournament Results

TY to everyone that attended and helped out with FR13. I’m soooooo tired and I can hardly talk, but I appreciate everyone that attended FR13 and everyone tht help run FR13. It’s all love and games. MVP of FR13 was POKCHOP imo!!! Not only did he have to come from the losers in T6, but to go through the remainder of top players like he did was soo f’ing clutch! He also did well in MvC2. They didn’t know you played capcom games too. :wink: ATL hold that crown for tekken. Thank to my new korean brotha’s Knee and Nin. Sorry I scared y’all on the ride to my house from the airport with my driving. (I have road rage + a lead foot)! Hopefully you guys will come back and bring more of your countrymen to Final Round 14.

To everyone that I met for the 1st time to old school FR vets. Thank you for supporting this event. Final Round isn’t great without you guys attending. Special thanks to the FR staff and my WIFE Shonda for putting up with smelly gamers for the whole weekend. I can’t name everyone 1 by 1 because the post would be to long. Just know that I love this fighting game community so much and I will strive to make FR bigger and better for years to come!

Shoutouts:

Anotak: for picking Saggot and showing me what cheap beyond cheap is by making SF4 Remix edition http://www.shoryuken.com/showthread.php?t=228242
Jared: for finally coming with us to a tournament
Ricky/Neto/Shadowlegend: We need to drink sometime either if i go to the ATL or if you guys end up in Alabama again, especially Cado cause of that one time at east point.
skitz: I don’t have to say anything. You are the only person to make hulk into a cheap character, good shit.
Lamar: Nice to see you come to final round don’t worry about the 5v5 stuff it was late enough at night that we all felt the same
Red Zo: Thank you for being there to join our 3v3 at the last second and still being very good with akuma even though you didn’t get to practice. This guy is a beast.
Final round staff: THANK YOU GUYS
**Team Bum’s House **- Thank you for coming to each final round to hang out and BIG THANK YOU to April for the awesome Zangief/Hakan rape picture on my lanyard.
Pimpjuice - Sweetass ninja shoes man
spookydonkey - Thanks for being a cool person to talk to that agrees with the more off-the-wall stuff i come up with like having Zangief shit in people’s mouth.
Phil - We done got Isaac, NOW WE COMIN FO U [media=youtube]a1o82BVKFp8[/media]
Greene brothers/Chris(rog)/Athens Crew - You guys have an awesome little SF4 scene at your hands with good players I hope to come play you guys in SSF4, thank you for welcoming me into the New York Killers along with excitedbeast.

Jwong - Thank you for giving me a good HDR match it is really hard to find someone so good at saggot. Please don’t hate HDR, Old Saggot was a disgusting character and Saggot in HDR is toned down from him but still better than new Saggot and still one of the best characters.
Peter - Thanks for showing me about high-level Cviper I will try to come up with something to fight back against her for next time so I can give a better match.
**damdai **- You are so good at ST/HDR, sorry I didn’t come talk this year I was pretty tired on Sunday but I hope to get to play you more in the future. I was hoping NKI would be there because I got something for his Chun/Dic (I mean dictator no homo), but I probably still don’t have a good answer for Nohoho.
VegitaX - I heard you are good at SF4 Zangief so it was cool to meet you and help you along to top 5 with stick parts.
Jan - I learned a lot about Zangief vs Zangief from our match good job on top 5.

And the biggest shoutout of all to ATL Tekken scene for shitting all over every other state that came to Final Round and thought they are something at all. Pokchop almost made that guy from New York with Lee cry on video LOL. And you guys were there when I was fighting that Seth guy talking shit about him I appreciate the support.

Hey guys this was my first Major I have ever attended out of Florida. By far this was one of the coolest events I have ever attended, just the atmosphere everyone was chill as fuck and the hype was unbelievable. I was the Tampa gief using the massive wooden briefcase mod I made.

Top gief players IFC, Jan , SS2J. Was impressive to watch your fights in the finals, and was glad to meet IFC in person and SS2J both nice guys like myself, Jan never met you but you rocked my 3v3 team and played solid all the way through.

Thanks ShinBlanka and Bobsmack for making this all possible and to everyone in the ATL scene I met there, all the people from the Atlanta scene that I talked too were cool as hell.

You were? I needed a hype man for my Dan Alpha 2 matches! Shout outs to you.

Anyways mine goes out to DaRabidDuckie and Cylus for rooming with me and playing casuals, helping to step my game up.

Also LingMassacre for the compliments on my Asuka Tekken 6 playing, you have inspired me to take Tekken to my next level.

Skisonic for being and awesome dude.

Kurasa for coming in to my room and playing TvC with us.

ViceVirtuoso and his crew.

Jaguar for having respect for my Frank West/Saki team.

Tiggy for being Tiggy.

JWong and Marn for being the source of my entertainment (I about pissed myself when Marn got caught up in Batsu’s wall infinite and yelled “WHAT KINDA SHITTY GAME IS THIS?!”

And Kain76 and Wes899 for being my main opponents, losing to you guys helped me step it up.

And to Larry/ShinBlanka and friends for running it. I will be there for Final Round XIV.

59

**O.K. I’m finally back in Japan. Although, I’m still halucinating from the after effects of Final Round XIII but I would like to just say thanks to everyone who came out to FRXIII. And I would also like to apologize to everyone who caught the POPULAR MEGAPHONE BLAST! Sorry folks, I have the loudest voice in the FR/EMS/DFP Crew. So that’s why I’m the one making the majority of the announcements… So again my bad for that if I blasted you!

Overall: Honestly, I really did not think that we could top the hype of FRXII but you guys proved me so wrong.

I’ll have more to say later **

GG’s to everyone that I played in Marvel & GGXXAC…

I was awfully disappointed in my performance; partially because of not playing Marvel seriously since late 2007-2008, my stick and playing Marvel instead of GG casuals/warming up-- but I will not make excuses^_^ BTW, sorry about sitting down most of the time…I did not feel good on Sat-Sun.

Marvel players: I do not know everyone’s names, nor did we play a WHOLE LOT of matches, but thanks for the good matches and help.

To the man who was hosting Marvel: Thanks for the advice, etc…There is nothing that I appreciate more than someone telling me what I do wrong and need to work on, rather than mindless praise, because I REALLY want to get better.

To the guy who I played in the tournament (2nd or 3rd match?): sorry about running away a bit with Cyclops…That is not really my style, and I would have only done so when using assist charcters-- so sorry, and GG’s…

To people who invited my sister and I into your room for Marvel casuals: GG’s…Those low tier-ish matches were Godlk! Special thanks to Fugee for making it happen.

JWong: It was nice to see/talk to you again, and congrats on winning so many tournaments, as usual…Your GG match Vs. Flash was epic…your few matches brought more hype to GG than most of the regular players, IMO. See you at Devastation<3

Also sorry about never doing that interview(?) for FR…I suppose everyone was too busy and was caught up…I hope that no one feels that we broke our promise…Honestly, I/we are far too shy for that sort of thing, but we agreed to do it and always keep our promises.

To GGXXAC players: GG’s to everyone (especially Testament LOL, the other guys that were in our room, Heidern98, etc) that I played in casuals and singles…It is a pity that even though I learned A LOT within the last 2-3 months, I played as awfully as I did a year ago, for reasons that I am not 100% certain of:rofl: However, I still fail to understand why anyone would lose to me, but GG is like that, I suppose. Also, I am very sorry about having so many issues with my stick and holding up the matches…I was kind of raging a bit at times, because of my stick as well-- very sorry:sad: I will post more proper GG shout outs on DustLoop, I suppose?

I am also sorry if anyone was offended by me removing my shoes, because they were very uncomfortable, and I had left my extra shoes in AZ (next to the luggage, LOL)…10-hour shifts, 6 days straight with missed breaks tend to affect your memory…

Last but not least, a special thanks to ShinBlanka for personally greeting me & my sister at the Airport, and of course, for making FR possible^_^ Although I cannot say I will be back next year for sure (the lack of hotel casuals was a big, BIG turn-off, few creepy guys, etc), it was a great experience and I have no regrets about going.

I hope to see/play some of you at Devastation and/or EVO (?) :smile:

Peace!

P.S. BG’s to Marn’s dog…he made me sick, and now I am bitter, and that guy who was sexually harassing me and my sister…
