You have funny reactions Julian. That’s the main thing.
So I picked up st for the first time ever at zach’s last night. That was fun. One question though. Is counter-picking mandatory? I probably will learn more then one character but I really just want to play balrog and pretty much nobody else.
Super Turbo… so hot right now.
I don’t think some trash talking is a bad thing
a little friendly regional rivalry is good to help keep everyone motivated, you know?
It’s not mandatory, but it might help to have another character to fall back on for your main’s tough matchups
or you can just learn how to fight your bad matchups well
no kidding
shit is getting serious
Heh. Jetay was pretty damn funny sometimes, but he talks mad shit. It’s just the way he is. He doesn’t consider it shit talking, doesn’t mean any offense (I think), just goes for some reaction. I know he doesn’t mean harm but I grew up learning that talking like that gets your ass beat, so I’m just gonna avoid getting into it. I get heated pretty easy.
With that said, ST was pretty cool the other night. I guess I’ll start practicing for once after my stick is done. Hopefully that’ll be tuesday, minus the artwork. Still haven’t found something I can get attached to. When all else fails, go Vega.
WOW, Not to brake souls here but… Yall on some BullShit!
First, I wanna know who made those brackets b/c they were shady as hell, Im not the only one that thinks this. Added to the fact that you added players during the tournament in the winners Bracket! And it was Sam B and Sam Y that had to play them. Fuckin Shady.
Second: Whats with this hugging and homo shit. Who fuck hugs about a 2nd round win. Or maybe it was fact you guys got a kick out of matching up me vs your best guy and Sam B right next to your 2nd best guy. Shady.
Third: Whats with this soft shit talk whhen i leave the room. You guys are cowards. Waiting till i or other PDX ppl left the room like i couldnt hear thhat shit. Then give some Sorry excuse talking about " Jetay is huge, im not gonna talk shit to him. " Really now. Im a PAID fuckin Fighter. You really think im gonna waste my fists on any of you. Im not like the most of you. I dont get into my feelings over talking some shit. If you are gonna talk shit, do it while im there, not when u think im not listening. All the shit i have said on here i have said to your faces. Grow some heart/balls. If you really think my shit talk could really start a fight anywhere else… then you really need to grab a hold reality and figure out that you and I are grown folks talking shit about ST, Not each others manhood/familes. GET REAL!
At first, I was just talking a little shit to the people I knew and the people that knew me. Then you new cats just show up and make it into this regional shit making into " WAR ST " To let you new cats know, the people that have been here For a long while, in your area and mine are just laughing at yall. wheather they gonna say it on here or not, its the fucking truth. You guys can make it a ST war all you want and feel good bout yourselves but really, its just you guys that think there’s a war/rivalry going on.
You guys went from trying to gain my/portland’s respect as ST players and getting it and losing it as people/players. Congrats
If you didnt have shit to do with anything i posted above, then it dosen’t concern you. Dont add to this dumb shit by adding more dumb shit by trying to defend something there isnt a need to defend. If you are really offended by the shit i say, well give each other a hug and smile, yall seem to like to do that type of bull shit.
I honestly don’t even remember anyone talking shit over ST except for you. And Alex saying you were big so he wouldn’t talk shit to your face…was a joke. Please inform me what was said behind any Portland players’ back that wasn’t a joke or just the truth (that you guys didn’t sweep top 3 as predicted). I didn’t hear any of it.
I’ve never even seen anyone from Seattle criticize Portland ST…and I’ve never even seen any other Portland players criticize Seattle ST…again except you, so…
You had too…
Hit 'em up, Hit 'em up
I ain’t even wanna hit 'em up, fuck it make a nigga get loose
He had too much talkin, not enough Deuce’
I tried to talk to him, I tried to talk to him
If its not nobody except me talking shit… then do you guys speak of it is Portland vs Seattle instead of Jetay vs Seattle… must be something said.
Ohh here’s the score since important: Seattle 1, Jetay 0…
Street Fighter is serious business. Hope you all can make it back to Zach’s despite all this drama. Jetay carrying Jason around the house was hilarious to me for some reason.
I should’ve played ST, poker was hella random anyway.
At least you sweeped the top three as promised. That was pretty cool.
Another good highlight.
That shit was boss.
I’m just going to quote this for truth
Our brackets are always iffy, but if Keith doesn’t do them no one else will. It’s hard enough getting people to play the damn game!
In response to some of your points, you seem to be the only one getting bent out of shape no matter what the hell any of us say or do. I was one of the original posters in Zach’s thread suggesting a battle between Seattle and Portland for no real reason other than it would be fun. Then you blast ALL of us as if we were some punk ass busters in your posts and like we’ve had beef with you since 1996. At least that is how I interpreted it.
Everyone was cool in person and it was great showing for ST and Zach’s gatherings in general. I put forth my best efforts to introduce myself to the portland peeps, and any new faces that showed up. If somehow playing us left you with some bad vibe, I am sorry.
I made the brackets. Lawrence was there with me–serving as a double blind–when I drew up the ST brackets. SamB did not have to play any extra games, but SamY and Kuenai did (because they were randomly selected by the tardy entrants). I would rather allow someone to come in late (if we haven’t moved past the first round) than to force them to start in the loser’s bracket. I stand by this belief.
I am relatively new to the Seattle fighting game scene, and I have much love for Portland as a city. I do not believe that there was anything “shady” about how I drew up brackets or how I hold events. All of the results from each event are visible to all in the league thread, so you could get an idea of who will be seeded where (provided that the people show up and register on time). For a concise look at the point standings, feel free to DL this file. Everything beyond the the top half of the winner’s bracket is out of my control, since the unseeded players are randomly paired with the seeded ones, and even the most devious individuals cannot possibly fix a loser’s bracket.
I did suggest a 5on5 between Portland and Seattle in MvC2, because I am learning the game and would like to watch as much high level comp as I am able to. I don’t actually get to watch or play very much at Zach’s since, I’m usually busy running the events for the enjoyment of others. I was in no way trying to agitate players or slight the Portland scene–especially not the ST scene since I clearly was trying to setup a Marvel exhibition. I don’t really recall talking any shit to you or any of the other Portland players, be it here in the forums, in person, or with you out of the room.
Still, you are obviously not pleased with your performance last Friday, and feel that directing that anger towards me vindicates you in some way. Well, if I’ve offended you with how I ran things, I do apologize. It was never my intention to ruin your trip up here. I’m always glad to meet new players and see different playing styles. I do hope that out of towners will continue to attend our events. Zach’s pad is a great place for competitive play.
Jetay listen ok? I was one of the people added to the tourney last minute. I was sitting on the fence on the matter because someone forgot the disk so I heard it was cancelled or some shit. Apparently he went back to get the disk and we were still on. I went down and said in front of EVERYONE “Is it too late to get in? If not that’s cool/I understand whatever.”
You were in the goddamn room. You could have said whatever the fuck you wanted. I was the person that played sam y. If you rewind the tape you will hear me say something very crucial. This is what I said.
“I played this game for the first time 20 minutes ago”.
Shady? Yeah fucking right. If I am one of seattle’s best players and I learned to play the game 20 goddamn minutes ago, then we are hurting pretty bad.
As for any shit talking behind your back or portland’s back, there was like one or two jokes about portland sweeping top three and sam y was there for those. All in good fun, not the end of the world. I don’t think anyone here has any ill will towards portland players of any sort. I don’t see why anyone should change that. Hugging after a match? That is a little weird, I didn’t see that shit though.
So you guys who were at Julien’s today tell me what happened?
And are we going to Julien’s again sometime this week or on the weekend, or should I schedule a day on the weekend at my house? Lemme know cus I need practice badly.
Dude, I did fuckin say something! if you dont wanna listen, thats on you and the rest of the cats that didnt listen. I said what kind of random shit was it too add people 3 or 4 fights into the winners bracket. I really dont give a fuck anymore man. Im gonna think what im gonna think and you gonna think what you think. and Find some shit where i said you were one of thhe best… exactly. shit dosent exist. Because you are gonna belive what you are gonna belive. I could give a fuck if you were or were not one of seattle’s best. Its the principle of damn thing. Im not known for keeping quiet about shit, why would i start withh you.
Its all in good fun when everyone is there having that fun talking shit, not waiting for people to leave before you say some shit…
If you wanna know about the hugging and shit, ask your boy Nate…
I for one, am tired of reading/listening to Jetay.
So where is ST at this weekend?
i hugged Airthrow after my match, do you want to fuck with me now that i did it?
I pose this question to the general PNW populace in this forum and thread.
