Wow, Lycan, are you coming down Saturday, or are we having our MM on the SBO qualifiers? Just want to be ready just in case. Not sure if I’ll have the money or not… Having room mate troubles of that rent thing.
Edit- GGs to everyone today at GG too. Neoblood, it was good meeting you. See everyone Saturday!
And yes, GGs to NeoBlood, John, Eugene, and Jason today.
Also, Jason, got the south covered like a Jimmy-hat. Posted up the info for saturday’s tournament (dont’ expect much since it’s short notice) and SBO in all the threads in the region. Hopefully that’ll help with attendance come the 24th.
Gonna have to raise the admission price for this pay-per-view business.
I really don’t want to be the one to drag this out, but I’ll bite.
Generally speaking, it’s not a good idea to call an entire city out and if you’re surprised that there’s resentment towards you then…well, you should have known better. It’s more surprising to everyone else that after basically telling the majority of Memphis that they are bad at video games and then putting hundreds of dollars of your own money up against everyone you deem worthy, you think it’s undeserved hate. People don’t like being called out. Makes for some bad blood.
I’m pretty sure everyone gets what you’re saying when you say you’re doing it to make everybody better, but you’re doing it wrong. What you’re trying to do isn’t called “transforming into super saiyan on-blast mode” or whatever, it’s called constructive criticism, and instead of telling absolutely everyone what a few people are doing wrong and walking away from it, you tell them how to do it right, one-on-one, preferably in private, and preferably in person. Progress comes from action, not talk, and embarrassing an entire region by calling them out on shortcomings while doing nothing to actually fix any of it is NOT progress. I don’t know all the nitty-gritty details of the whole gdbell v. Memphis Rumble in the Jungle MM Mayhem business or whatever you wanna call it, and I don’t know anything about all this food you keep on talking about, but this? This is fundamental community interaction stuff.
Rubbing a dog’s nose in its shit doesn’t teach the dog to get better at pooping, it makes a shit-covered mess that just learned to stay away from you.
Fenix,
I will definitely not be there this Saturday, the 3rd. Work wont let me permit this. I will more than likely be there for SBO! Til then good sir.
Gdbell has been nothing but good peoples! Dude is there now either whooping ass or taking his ass beatings. Regardless, I know that he is just truley trying to hype things up and thats what it’s all about! Next Team Tourney, it’s gunna be Gdblycan vs the world! Get ready for some funny ass commentary!
Some people around here confuse good ole hype with their personal feelings. Leave that shit at the door, and bring yo stick niggah! (no homo)
GGs to Shawn, Hunter, Josh, Glasscock, Matt, Jason, Phil, and my buddy James (dunno if he lurks here or not). I know i didn’t play all of you but we were all in a lobby together so GGs.
Lycan, it’s cool man, and it’s probably for the best. We can have the drinking contest that weekend too, probably forget about it after we’re both drunk, then play some street fighter. Also, we are NOT combining the drinking contest with our MM. I suck at that game when I’m drunk.
GG’s to everyone at Hastings tonight. I was very glad to see the community step up and show support. I hope everyone had a good time.
I will take this opportunity now to let everyone know that I may have to postpone next Wednesdays Fight Night as well. Per my agreement with Hastings, I have to attend every gathering that is held there, to supervise and clean up. Mainly to just make sure everything runs smoothly. I will likely not be able to attend and perform these duties next week because I will be going out of town early the next day.
I will see if I can arrange something for next week, but until I get things confirmed, please consider next week’s gathering postponed til the following week. However, hey, it’s Evo the next day! Things should be fun regardless.
Thanks again to everyone tonight, and I thank you all in advance for your consideration and understanding.
GGs Josh, Shawn, and… uuummmm, well everyone else left when I got in… I didn’t think I smelled…
Anyways, Josh, I need to play your Rufus online BEFORE Saturday. Also, GGs with your Viper.
Shawn… where do I start? We went through 2 matches, 2 different characters, and I missed the Ultra both games… except the last hit. Hilarious shit man. Also, that just wasn’t good sportsmanship with Vega. That shit isn’t cool man.
Lol, I just saw this. It’s good to know that Lycan always has his priorities straight, and always knows what the proper thing to do is in any situation, hot or cold. When the zombie apocalypse arrives, I will follow Lycan’s lead.
GGs to Hiryu, Asian Thunder, gdbell, and T Hawk guy.
GdBell - I may not agree with a lot of things you say, but I honestly respect you coming out here and taking on all of us. I hope you come back a stronger, but more humble player.
Yea, John. That was some hot shit. I probably had more fun with those matches than I have in days of SF play. GGs to the monstrous amount of people in that lobby. To be honest I don’t think I even knew half of them.
I think the community’s point has been made from tonight. I thought it was a little overkill but whatevs, if there was a device that allowed me to turn off all button input at my whim while he played he woulda done alot better, Too much button mashing. I do hope he gets a better understanding of the game, if he comes out every wednesday I’ll dedicate 30 minutes of my time sitting down with him and playing him and telling him what he should and should not do and why.
