HAH, lol that’s happend to me a few times, I love it. :lovin:
No Hay YOO!
and you coulda plowed me because I had fucked up the word “scrub” and wrote “scream” instead
I’m not into plowing men 
and I would probably have made a spelling/grammar mistake trying to correct your spelling/grammar mistake. :sad:
hahahahahahaha I got neg because of what i posted. I wonder who it was :rolleyes: . Any way you understood the point I was trying to make so I guess my work here is done.
Welcome to SRK. 
You want a scrub story? Anime Detour Minnesota ( it’s a con ) Guily Gear XX tournament.
The game was supposed to be Slash ( I mean it’s the status quo yah? Yah. ). Bout 38 people signed up, was lookin’ pretty good. Brought my stick with me since this was the first comp I’d had since I moved to Minnesota 4 months ago.
Anyway I digress, so we’re playing my copy of Slash for casuals and some of the competitors start showin’ up…first warning sign: NO ONE’S got another stick on em! I mean I got nothing against D-pad if it really works out better for you ( Unless yo hotkey shit… ), but I just felt it was a little odd that no one else was gonna use one. Come to find out, a lot of players around these parts think using a stick is CHEATING. Yeah that’s right, you read correctly, they’re banned from tournaments ( at least the ones ran by this circle of people ).
Quite irate I was, but things got worse still. Not that these guys were stellar players to begin with, but they actually complained that it was harder to do a super in Slash than it was in X2…which is what they were expecting to play in the first place! Yeah! They want to go from Slash BACK to XX…because they only assumed that because they couldn’t mash out Chipp’s HCB-F super was a sign that somehow Slash fucks your controller up making attacks harder to execute…HOW THE FUCK IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE?! ( Oh yeah it’s got nothing to do with the fact I’m raping your face with Jam when you’re trying so desperately to get out some random Chipp super while he’s being sent flying across the screen, it’s OBVIOUSLY the game’s fault! )
So enough bastards raised a fuss and the guy putting the tournament on switched it from Slash to XX…told me I couldn’t use my stick and then on top of all that, he gave non-contested advancements to a bunch of competitors because the people he chose to randomly face off against them never showed up…RATHER THAN JUST REORDER THE DAMN BRACKETS! I mean we still has 32 people show up! So there were people advancing rounds without even having to beat anyone! I ended up knocking some dude out in the 3rd round in his first game!
…Still ended up winning that shit though. With Ky no less, against an Eddie in the round no less! Fucking ridiculous I’m never goin’ back there for a tourney, can’t wait to be back the in Bay Area!
LOL stick cheating wow
This one time at the arcade a guy told me he was gonna kick my ass if i kept throwing him in hyper fighting…same day some guy called me fucking cheap and said i had no skills.
This sounds pretty normal right? but the funny part of the story was this was like a month ago! this arcade is in a time warp! i love it
Ok, for people who have seen my sig, here’s the story:
I’m working staff at an anime convention in Chicago called Acen back in May of 06. Its the 5th biggest in the country, i believe. My job at the con was to run like, 6 or 7 tournies, and that was about it. All the other time i had there was just for whatever i wanted to do. So i was just sitting in the game room playing casuals at naruto 4 for the GC. We were doing 4 player free for all. Since im a top player at naruto 4, im just picking crappy characters. I pick Tayuya, who is one of the worst 3 in the game (its kind of hard to decide who’s worse between her, Anko, and Sakura, so they’re all grouped as shit tier). The other guy is playing Sasuke who’s like, i unno mid tier. Doesnt really matter. So i do this combo with her that requires:
a) Them to have very little bar cause otherwise they’de teleport out of it (you get bar hella fast in this game, too)
b) Them to be in the right spot with a wall and not at an angle otherwise they’de fly too far
c) Me to actually hit him with the move that starts it.
So i do this combo, which really is super flashy but not that great, BBBAAA then as they’re falling, BBX (x is the super, but it does really bad damage). After i hit with that, the guys puts down the controller and says to me, “Sorry, i don’t play against people who use combo’s.” I pretty much laughed at him forever.
It was the funniest. At the same convention, my friend beat this guy one round with something that stops teleports (which scrubs arent used to) and the guy was like, “Oh, we’re playing cheap now, are we?”
Pretty funny.
Destroying everyone in my zip code:
MvC1 was the fighter I started playing seriously and my team was Strider/CapCom with Psylocke assist. So, I’m at the pizza shop after school(Junior High School back in '97) and I have 6 wins racked up already. So, after the 7th win, the kid is like, “Yo, I’mma get my cousin. He gonna fuck you up, nigga.” And I’m like, “Aight. He’ll fall as quick as you did.”
His cousin shows up and picks Chun/Strider. I go on and proceed to deliver the biggest ass whooping on this dude since the day I demolished this dude with a perfect at another arcade. And all of a sudden, the dude’s cousin starts blaming the sticks. The most classic excuse, of course. He goes on to get scrubbed out another 4 times.
Then there was the video store me and my 4 man crew owned up every day of the week. Dudes would start pressing our start buttons because they feared the ownage. Usually didn’t work because we’d just hold up on the joystick and j.roundhouse with Strider all day.
MvC1 was the shit. I wish wasn’t as young for it back then to compete on a national level.
-I owned guys at school using 10-strings in Tekken
-I owned guys using Shoto team in Marvel (I suck at that game)
-Someone told me that doing the same move 3 times in a row was cheating.
-“Aw you picked my character”
-I owned some button masher in front of all his gangsta friends in Tekken Tag. They left afterward without incidence.
Do the Wachowskis write your dialogue, or sumthin’?
-Kimosabae
Didn’t know we were in the “Official Screenwriters Guild” thread.
Jin has good 10 strings.
Some guy called me a fagit for that blue shit that happens during a gunflame. =/
P.S. FRC Gunflame.
Man I’ve had a few.

I was playing some people at an arcade back in LA at the mall and everyone was on the mvc2 machine. (I wish I knew about tournies back then, would of got owned but still wanted to get better then). It was around 2000 i think, and some dude was beastin on folks using cable, senti, and ironman. I got to the machine and he had like 10 wins. I chose my old classic team of strider, spidey and charley. And I beasted the crap out of him and he was like, “You cheatin cause strider can teleport”. I was like okay you have like the 3 best guys and your mad cause i have strider. He played a few more rematches cause the crowd watching was like,“If he can beat him then we have no chance”(Man looking back, I really sucked but hey I thought I was the man then) After I won about 4 more times he was like that team is too cheap and left sayin if you picked a less cheesy team then Id beat you.

Another time was when I traveled to alabama for a college tour that same year. There was a mall in montgomery where this guy had his “super 733t marvel gamer glove”. I was like wtf you have that for! but anyways I played him once and it was a sad one sided beatdown. He told me that spider man was broken because I had a really scubby assist setup where I can keep trapping the swing happy bastard with the web ball. (On a side note, when I enrolled in college down here I went back to that mall and amazingly he was still there and carried a grudge with me that entire year I left. I beat him again and I was then told that if we played another fighting game he’d beat me. Which he was destroyed in promptly.)
good times good times
I enjoyed that.

A friend and I were watching two guys playing 3s. This newbie to the arcade, a highschooler, comes and watches it next to us. One of the guys raging demons his opponent, and it was a KO, so it showed akuma’s kanji.
Kid comes uncomfortably close to me, “That says fire” he says proudly.
“I dont think so”
“Yes, yes its fire”
“I think its the kanji for heaven or sky”
"NO! NO! Look!"
He pulls out this huge deck of naruto cards, and starts flipping through it.
He was taking so long, I forgot about him. Comes back after 2 mins.
“See!” He shows me a card with the kanji for fire on it.
“Thats not the same”
“YES IT IS”
"Ok, your right, its fire"
My friend was about to burst out laughing. -
This button masher, seriously utterly button mashing. Everytime he loses he gives a crazy excuse saying he was trying this ultra complicated combo that doesnt even exist. Usually, I just agree to shut them up, but one time I was fed up I simply said “You cant do that”. And he ofcourse said “Yes you can!” I watched him try that combo for 10mins. It was fun.

A long time ago. SF2:NG. Two scrubs, some dude and I. First few times we started playing. Jumping was the most dangerous shit ever. And then someone accidentally parried… WTF DID YOU JUST DO?!
-
I do mid screen raging demon on scrub. “I WAS BLOCKING THAT!” “Yes, yes… I am sure you were”
How do you block?
I love that line :wgrin:
its a soul calibur 3 machine dumbface
Man, I have lots of them:
- While at a friend’s house, the guy’s cousin claimed he was a really awesome Tekken Tag player and Alpha 3 player and that few people could beat him. Then he asked me who I used in Alpha 3 and he was like “Dhalsim? How the hell do you win with Dhalsim?! He’s like the worst character in the game!” Despite being retired from fighting games for almost 3 years and also despite never having played Tekken in my life, I decide to play him for the hell of it since we had no copy of Alpha 3 at hand. I had to ask for a basic explanation of the Tekken mechanics (side step, throw, block, etc.), so his friend was all like “Dude, you are so dead.”
Well…I ended up beating him the first game. All I did was do Throw/ticky tack hit mixups and block all day and I won on time. My favorite was when he screamed “HOLY SHIT, IT TOOK ME YEARS TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO BLOCK THAT AND YOU DID IT IN SECONDS!” Of course he beat me overall by a ratio of 5-1 simply because I don’t know anything about the game, but it unnerved him to all hell.
-
I suck at MvC2, but scrubs have incessantly threatened to kick my ass after they lost to me. Especially this one guy who didn’t understand the concept of Cable Guard Break and he would scream at the sticks when he couldn’t block. Another complained “All you do is super! REAL MEN DO COMBOS!” when I was playing Strider/Doom, and he told me that I’d get my ass whipped in a real fight because one can’t super in real life

Not video games, but I have this exchange with a Japanese friend of mine where he would teach me Shogi and I would teach him Chess. So we agreed to play on the Japanese Yahoo server. Afterwards, I decided to practice some chess since I hadn’t played in years, and set up a 5 min unrated blitz session and took the black pieces to see what would happen.
This guy who apparently played 20k games on the server decides to play me, so I practice openings I’ve never played before. And I win…and win…and win…until the score became something ridiculous like 200-5. He wouldn’t stop hitting the rematch button either! I ended up being the one who eventually gave up and went to sleep, but damn, if I played somethign 20k times and I still sucked that bad, I would just assume that I don’t have the mentality for it and give up.
