sigh Yeah you are right. At this point, I’ve only made us look bad. In order to avoid further mockery of whatever reputation I have left, I’m going to probably go silent. You guys don’t need me, I’ve only just caused trouble. I really thought I could do my part, but I guess I took things way too far.
I will still be posting…just don’t expect much from me.
Dude, stop ripping on yourself. You almost singlehandly created the bridge between the Melee and SG community on the Smashboards thread, at worst you’re that melodramatic guy that kept on ranting about Skullgirls but you have the love of your game that a lot of people aim for.
Just turn down the emotional posts a bit and people will find you less amusing.
I dunno about you guys but there are some really amazing side effects so far.
Melee tourney (Genesis) might have Skullgirls tournament (go to it and support it if that’s in your area please, it would be rude to turn that down)
Lots of non-competitive fans donating to SG at EVO + Charity
SG fans put their money where their mouth is, proving the love and passion and user support is there
A lot of exposure by sharing links and etc. And all this fucking money for charity, which is the entire point and still donate towards because that’s the main point (please don’t break the bank, that would silly to put yourself in a bad situation)
When this is over, win or lose, remember to support your smaller and local events and bring a SG setup if they need/want one
So next week tune in to the Salty Cupcakes stream. They will be holding a donation drive. All donations will be matched by the hosts. So Thursday (1-25-2013) night at 8PM PST check out the Salty Cupcakes stream.
If only we lived in an ideal world where SFxT got dropped and we could have both SG and Melee. Am I right? Maybe if it’s still terribad after the patch this month?
Denial
Anger
Bargaining <- I am here
Depression
Acceptance
OK. This is how it goes. We as a community are either strong enough to live without EVO mainstage boost or not. And if latter is the case then I’m not sure that said boost will do us any good. So I’d say our main goal should be to steadily create sturdy community without relaying on one-shot occasions like this either then trying to go all-or-nothing on this one thing. That being said we should do everything we can to gain this spot but considering it as pivotal point just isn’t right thing to do. We should look at it like it’s one battle. Pretty big one, yes, but not deciding. The war will not over with EVO regardless of us taking that main spot or not. EVO will end but life will not. Think about it guys and don’t overreact.
I’ll definitely have something to post up on my tumblr, when this donation drive is all said and done.
Day 10 approaches. May the shine of 1,000 golden fortunes smile upon us.
BTW. Can anyone that caught Salty Cupcakes give me a quick list of any news or anything I might have missed? My net connection is being trash tier right now and its being really slow on playing back the archive.
