The day before SBO... THE SHIOZAWA CUP

fixt. thx for the heads up.

nice try '09er

Iyo is beast!! What happened to the US team is BS but should be dropped, like others suggested. Nothing can be changed anymore. But yeah like everyone else here says: Tear that shit up in SBO.

There were a lot of Japanese players at EVO? My understanding is there were only Daigo and Dan for SF4, then those 8 players for Marvel =\

But um. To our guys overseas fighting the good fight, good luck. I hope you guys look at this whole incident like pre-SBO mindgames and rise above. I remember a couple years back our guys got creamed at 3rd Strike 'cause they were using some weird sticks. I cried a little that day when I saw how our guys missed on execution =(

the REAL disrepect is not even putting the other two american teams in the tourny. evo falls all over itself and bends rules to make sure that japanese players are accomodated, even the not so famous mvc2 ones. and that’s because anyone that is willing to fly 5k miles to play a game they should at least be given the opportunity to participate.

Hey, Drkd! I remember you from your helpful commentary in the Godsgarden chat channel.

yeah. i’m not gonna bother trying to qualify for SBO next time. i’ll just fly there and they better let me play because it’s the right thing to do.

That sucks Art/marn. The whole thing seems very low, I don’t see how it was allowed to be the way it was. I know that this “SHIOZAWA” doesn’t really matter that much, but that besides the point. And it’s also not the point that yall lost after the re-start.

Why didn’t they say something before they played and lost? That’s like in Basketball, calling a foul after you see your shot missed. What’s from keeping them from complaining after they loss again? Making up another excuse? I wouldn’t be very happy and it would effected my performance as well.

It’s not a legit win, but there’s not much you can do about it now, except call them out for it. The people who matter know it was a low blow.

(sorry to bring this back up, just showin my support :sweat:)

Anywho, Good Luck @ SBO! Win one for USA!!

Gl tomorrow though guys even though you got gayed hardcore. Also, wow Iyo fuckin ripped…

so Daigo just sat there and watching all day?

I think Mago wanted to go but he couldn’t get a passport in time, or something like that. :-\

Virtua Fighter players basically walking in and toying with everyone but the absolute top SFIV players I see.

come on that’s the “real SRK” if u don’t have mIRC installed on your computer ur a nobody YJDK REAL TALK DUDE MAN DUDE YO LIKE DUDE MAN YO

regarding usa team incident, both teams are at fault. japn team should have complained sooner, usa team should have stayed with their initial line-up. had there been no changes, there would have been no problems to begin with. at least with the last minute lineup change for usa, it’s good there wasn’t an eddie lee like incident as in that time of usa v japn 2000 (internal conflict). with the results in, and neither team winning or advancing significantly. the issue should be finished.

Oddly enough reminds me of when the desegregated sports and black players often found phantom fouls called against them. They just had to get up and do it over again. Try not to let it demoralize you (I know it’s hard) but let it focus you, let it make you want to push their shit in that much more.

Good luck at SBO guys.

Team VF = TEAM BEAST.

BRING VF5R TO CONSOLES SEGA.

thx :lovin:

lol, more American hate. guys, just forget about it. all the countries have those kind of people. Even Canndains boo during the US National Anthem on a Hockey game.

wait, yall were expecting to be treaded fairly IN JAPAN after dropping all that loot on a plane ticket and travelling so many miles for the love of the game/scene lol…yall got a lot to learn about japan. i also agree that not making the other US teams enter for whatever reason is a big slap in the face. like i posted in another thread, dudes need to stop going out their way to give japanese more respect than they deserve cuz they damn sure dont return the favor. after sbo just brush it off, hit the club up and take it out on their you know what
