Stop the Raffles

Learning the game with Aegis and then I’m going to try to move to Elizabeth. But I will raffle the choice of my alt on stream.

You know, this thread had actual, relevant discussion going on when it started.

Then it turned into idiocy and vendettas.

So…good shit SRK I guess for staying true to yourself?

There’s nothing to actually discuss sans Valaris’ point that sticks as prizes for first place may not be the best option and are fueling many of the raffles.The only thing happening is what has always happened: The Cannons try their best to babysit a bunch of grown ass men who try to make their lives harder. Instead of a couple of people getting kicked out of the USB campus for playing poker with money they could instead accidentally trigger a federal case since they are holding raffles online and are not paying attention to where they mail things. TO’s risk bringing bad attention to the local communities if they were to be prosecuted in their states.

Like I said, there is absolutely nothing to discuss other than The Cannon’s constant baby sitting and a lot of fool acting. I guess the big question is: why they let Keits hold raffles in his tournament?

Second question is: what was the thingy that PapaRhino brought up?

you think its bad here… visit twitter or facebook groups, lol. I love it… everyones real feelings come out… then some drama an beef get stirred up… then people compare apples to oranges an within a day or so all this vanishes.

Grown men whose primary hobby is playing video games are immature?

I find this quite surprising.

Video games are just a form of entertainment not a measurement of maturity.

Shut up.

Because of this post you only really have two options: 1) You can stop being stupid or 2) you can just get the fuck out of the site. Your choice of hobby does not really say much about your maturity level. People on facebook show less reading comprehension at times than SRK (and I have motherfucking professors acting the fool).

Real Talk: don’t make Ponder’s life harder, just stop doing raffles.

For what it’s worth there wasn’t a raffle that was done where the ticket you got for it was for the raffle alone iirc. You got a ticket for entering the tournament that came with the venue fee, there was a free raffle ticket you got for attending a panel, and raffle tickets you got for playing stuff at the fun and games station (balrog ball, divekick, etc.).

Crackpr0n already addressed this.

You’re not paying to be in the raffle. You’re paying for something else and are entered in the raffle because of it.

Hey guys. Use those sticks to play VF. It is a fantastic game.

I agree that the “sponsored” gamers with no jobs who live in a 4k/month house who use raffles to fund their lifestyle are pathetic, like Fchamp etc

HOWEVER, Justin Wong is NOT one of them. Mago was stranded without a passport, who offered to let Mago stay at his house for free for TWO WEEKS? Justin Wong did.

Justin Wong rarely streams these days, he only streamed those few days that Mago was at his house, cuz a lot of viewers wanted to watch Mago. Then someone else broke Justin’s computer. His computer would not have been broken in the first place if he didn’t generously let Mago stay at his house.

So bottom line, when “Complexity is a great sponsor” Fchamp and Fanatiq do raffles and beg for donations, even though they are sponsored, win thousands of $$$ in tourney and money matches, while not having a job, is that pathetic? Yes it is.

But Justin Wong does not do that sort of stuff. In fact, last year Jwong had a full-time job at Nexon and had to juggle competitive fighting games into his schedule.

Thanks for the clarification.
