michael moore exposed canada back in 1993 but no one listened

when you talking about? cen was about to knock jiggabry and nagata the fuck out… he dropped his stick mad hard and everything and peeps needed to hold him back.

also adam, js, and aneurysmX are good players… baning them because of nagata/samir is kinda retarded.

I hope someone has this shit on tape, joey throwing his cheating ass out of evo, grabs his bogus sticks, smashes it on his face, and kicks him out the door, d-d-d-d-disqualified, gtfo !

You all can be afraid of my mad skills when I go down to layeth the smack down in Vegas. I won’t need a cheat to beat on weak americans. Mahtever is a dumb tard for getting caught cheating in such an OBVIOUS way, I mean, what the hell did he think was gonna happen?

@@ That fireball just did 30%
Mah = Have some Canadian Bacon.
@@ No, really. It’s not suppose to do that much damage.
Mah = Did you know that Canada is home to over 80 different types of beaver?
@@ = I want my money back.
Mah = Thanks to a strong Canadian Dollar. I’ll only lose 500 Canadian Tired money on this exchange… Strange Brew motha fucker.
@@ A filthy Canuck too my money. Damn them, damn them all.

Not because cheating is wrong, but because it was a Street Fighter tournament. What the hell man? You should have saved that cheat for something important. Like if you were trying to hold out on a Vegas hooker. See, there is when you need a good strong game plan.

Don’t get me wrong though, if you are gonna hate on Canada. Hate cause I’m here and ready to kick your ass in ST at all times.

I heard Jwong uses a wall hack…

Biolink · May 28, 2007, 7:26pm

Good Shit on catching that Cen.

Gaijinblaze · May 28, 2007, 7:30pm

There’s one thing I don’t really get. The damage in the normal options menu was increased from the default 2 stars apparently; doesn’t that affect both players equally, or almost so? Or were other things changed as well?

Don’t get the wrong idea, I had no idea this was going down. Just curious.

rsigley · May 28, 2007, 7:46pm

isn’t there a handicap setting? where one player does more damage than the other?

i think thats what was changed

noodleman · May 28, 2007, 7:46pm

please don’t crap on “Canada”, or even Toronto. This is the first time I’ve ever heard of cheating in the Toronto area, and Samir doesn’t not represent the general population of Canada.

Cen:

I’m posting this as a heads up for the people that didn’t know about the cheating that the canadian players were doing at Evo East.

These guys had a modded anniversary edition controller that worked only on a specific PS2 that the canadians brought. Their plan was to bait players to play money matches/tournament games on their PS2 with their specific settings in favor of their characters (e.g. Yun). This guy Saamir (the canadian I encountered) would say that his controller doesn’t work on the PS2 at the stations (during the tournament) because there was something wrong with his controller connector but he would refuse to use another controller for personal reasons. Then when you went to play, he would plug in his controller first to test his controller and go straight to arcade mode (3rd strike was the game) so you would only be able to do button configuration but not be able to check the options. When I went to play the 3S match with him, I was already suspicious about this guy Saamir since we tested his controller at 4 stations but I respected his decision and gave him the benefit of the doubt. During the first game we played I noticed that the damage was strange but since I wasn’t 100% sure at that time, I played the following game to confirm it. After I loss the match, I quickly realized this scheme and went to tell Seth about it but since no Evo staff was present to see it happen, I had to take my loss.

So the next match that was up, was Justin Wong vs Saamir. I went to see if he would do the same routine of his with the broken controller with Justin and he did. At this point I knew I had to stop him. As Justin went to start his match, I grabbed Justin and whispered to him that Saamir was cheating and he had the settings set in his favor. As Justin went to start the game, he told Saamir that he wanted to check the game settings but he pretend to ignore Justin and just jump straight to arcade mode. After Justin got into the game options, we saw that the settings had not been default. This reaffirmed me and after Justin won, we went over to tell the Evo staff about this scheme. As Saamir went to the loser brackets, he had to fight Smoothcat but this time James Chen was there watching to confirm if Saamir would do this scheme and he did. After Saamir loss his match with Smoothcat, I decided to confront Saamir but I got nothing but a guilty expression. While I was confronting Saamir, Nagata quickly came to his defense and Nagata said there was no evidence of Saamir “cheating” or changing settings but when MrWizard ask Nagata about this matter, he told Joey that he had filmed my match with Saamir but when Joey asked Nagata to show this match so he could confirm if this matter was true or not, he refused. After Nagata refused to show the match, Joey and the other Evo staff decided to ban Saamir from Evo.

Later on, while I was talking with Arturo on the 2nd floor lobby. Nagata passed by and overheard us talking about the canadians and cheating. He came up to defend himself and I told him that I wasn’t blaming him for Saamir’s actions but his actions made me suspicious of him. After explanations and arguing, Nagata finally admitted to cheating and he said, “Let’s keep it real between the OG people here, yah we cheating”.

yo i didnt hear about this… you need to tell me/jal/bill what happened.

DaFlipMastaXV · May 28, 2007, 7:57pm

lol I believed everything until here.

Gaijinblaze · May 28, 2007, 8:05pm

After checking, yeah, in the extra options you can adjust the vitality for each player individually. If something was changed in favour of one person, I’m guessing it must’ve been that. But I don’t get why you guys would allow memory cards to begin with. Nobody uses Gill and the default options are preferred.

Really disappointing if it’s true.

Shodokan123 · May 28, 2007, 8:05pm

why would you not beleive henry… he’s been around forever and has been part of the community probrably since before you started playing SF >_<

no, in options the damage setting was 4 stars instead of the defualt 3

DarkGiygas · May 28, 2007, 8:06pm

Wow, this is retarded. Samir’s always talking about how he wants to keep improving in 3S, and then cheats at a National tourney? GG son. People got their money back from the money matches though, right?

DaFlipMastaXV · May 28, 2007, 8:09pm

Not about Henry, it’s about Nagata saying that quote, which would never ever ever ever happen.

Shodokan123 · May 28, 2007, 8:13pm

afik

i’d beleive henry over nagata since i’ve known henry alot longer.

DaFlipMastaXV · May 28, 2007, 8:17pm

Well I’ve known Justin really long too and I know that even though he’s wrong he’d never admit to it, especially not like that.

Whether Henry is right or not, I wouldn’t know. I know Justin would not cheat and neither would most of the 3s players. (I don’t know Samir either so I’m not gonna give my opinion of him)

noodleman · May 28, 2007, 8:20pm

Maybe the “we” was a “he”? the rest of GTASF/TOSF guys i’ve known have never been cheaters afaik.
