R.I.P Guilty Gear

btw im still down for some animevo… GGAC, MB, and AH numbers will prolly be better than cvs2 numbers anyways…

no cosipring shit either… CvS2 is slowly dying (unless some crazy happens)… so let the cvs2 community have they thing for now…

ya’ll do your thing with GGAC… cuse i want to enter that as well…

trust… it’s for the best…get that shit done!!!..

I helped run GG last year(and the year previous) at world up till top 8, the last 2 matches before the top 8 were delayed by about an hour because the teams went out for a ‘smoke break’. Thats not counting how much time I had to waste on tracking down teams that keptn walking away from the pools and you guys know how much I like to disqualify

lol i cant woof man, i’ve smoke soooo much weed with different guilty gear players outside. and they would tell me “yeah, i gotta play my match but i told them i had to use the bathroom” or “i was gonna smoke a cig and come right back”

then like afther eatch sesh (which take up to like 30 mins at least) i would wish them luck on their match and never see them again. lol

i’m just sad i can’t see my nigga JUICY and FLASHMETROID mollywop people this year

No, it has not been explained at all yet. We have been given the proverbial “spin”. Average SRK post: lots of name calling and no substance.

Repeat: GGXX is not my main game. I do not care that much that the game was dropped. The people that should care are the ones that are shoveling up a pile of dung onto a community, while that community wipes it off with a smile and comes back for more.

Poon, seriously. You’re fucking deluded.

after doing a little bit of quick research, i found that ggxx does in fact take a little more than HALF the time of cvs2. this is just pure game time, not time finding sticks/people/taking shits.

just reporting some stuff i found.

That’s funny because I didn’t see inkblot “spin” anything or call anyone names. He pointed out the past instances of problems the game has had at Evo. You’re the one that keeps shrugging it off like you somehow know better than the people who run the thing.

For someone who doesn’t care, you sure do bitch a lot about it. I find it hilarious how you’re trying to be the voice of a community you’re not part of. Take a look at the people you’re trying to “rally”, and look at how they understand what’s going on. Also notice how none of them asked you for your assistance. You’re sticking yourself in business that obviously doesn’t concern you.

In other words, shut the hell up.

Then please find it hilarious by refuting my claim.

Here is an example of that:

And here’s how this information is incorrectly spun:

GGXX takes less time than a match of CVS2 (obviously). yoooooon “found” that team tournaments take longer to run than singles tournaments. Which we already knew.

That’s what I don’t understand. Why is it so easy for players to accept a garbage explanation? It would be so easy to state the real reason (SRK staff likes CVS2 more than GGXX) but it’s as if they’re trying to save some kind of face, as if we’d all fall for it. Well, most of us did, unfortunately.

wait what?

i think you read that wrong

single match of ggxx takes a little more than HALF the time than a single cvs2 match. i didn’t find anything about team tournaments. i’m saying single game vs single game.

wait, did i read it wrong?

rofl, funfact. the evo staff generally hates every capcom game at evo except ST…

so please gtfo with that logic. they fucking hate cvs2 and 3s. strong emphasis on HATE. you can take that to the bank. it has nothing to do with liking or hating a game

According to youtube a match of GGXX (2/3 rounds) takes about 3 minutes while a match of CVS2 takes about 4 minutes and 30 seconds (ratio match).

If it’s 2 out of 3 matches, that makes it 6 minutes for the GGXX match and 9 minutes for the CVS2 match.

Then rather than tell me what the reason isn’t, could you tell me what it is?

We know it isn’t:

  • They hate the game
  • Because it will save time
  • Because CVS2 has more players than GGXX

So that leaves:

  • They like CVS2 players more than GGXX players
  • Because it will cost less
  • Other arbitrary/unimportant reasons

I’m dying to know!!

does it really matter? they dont owe anyone an explanation. its their show, they front their own money. they dont owe anyone, ANYTHING. its as simple as that.

get over it and move on and HYPE shit up. with al lthis energy being spent on bitching, it could be used for a better cause getting the scene bigger and badder.

GOGOGOGOGO

actually if it’s 2 out of 3 matches, then it can be 6-9 minutes for ggxx and 9-13.5 minutes for cvs2.

the gap is even larger because it can potentially go to game 3 every time.

i got 6-9 minutes vs 10-15 minutes, but the numbers are almost the same

no mas for me

GG sucks and all capcom games are better. There, that’s what you want to hear.

The answer is: no, Evo does not owe anyone anything.

The problem is: Evo thinks that a community that they have taken a dump on does owe them something. Again, we know what the actions of a handful of individuals were. DQ their asses like you should with any game where the rules are badly broken or other misbehavior occurs.

Damn, after reading all these posts you guys need to let this go. So what if it isn’t going to be there this year. Wow! It’s not like there isn’t next year. All you people fishing around for answers and conspiracy theory’s are just making this worse. Some of you that whine and moan about it being dropped, how it was your only game, and how you are gonna boycott EVO because it’s not there need to grow up.

I can see why they would need to fit the numbers into a time constraint, since time = money. I love this game to death but quite honestly some of the members that come on here and flame the crap out of everything that moves need to learn to stfu and go cry somewhere else or grow up and learn to live with it.

I would ask you for proof, but for you to prove that, you’d have to use examples that prove their point.

You failed. Quit trying to be a hero for something you already said you don’t care about. I could attach a propeller to the twist in your panties and cause lift-off.

You’re right about people needing to live with it. Boycotting itself won’t do shit. Neither will fidgeting about conspiracy scenes, or crying about things.

Using your Evo-budgeted money to travel to another regional would be the best option. It would grow the scene, and you’ll have more fun there then you would at Evo. Everyone wins that way. That’s not boycotting, that’s just spending your money more wisely (unless you hit every major regional, but I don’t think more then 3 or 4 people do that). Under the laws of economics, if enough people do it, some other tournament will replace Evo as the national tourney, and get the sponsorship. No need to cry, rant, get mad, or get even- why go to Evo if you’ll have more fun for less money somewhere else? In the end, do what you think is fun, not what the hivemind says.

In the end, Evo will be fine without the GG crowd, and GG will be fine without the Evo crowd.
The market will decide things in the end.

Requesting thread close. We have two incredibly delusional posters that don’t know that other players have MOVED THE FUCK ON.

I was about to request the same thing. This thread has served it’s purpose.
