WEDNESDAY Night Fights - Round 3 - Only the Strong Survive!

Holy shit I haven’t been up to date with shgl’s or any street fighter
thing for like a few weeks and DAMN serious business! I like it <3.

Losing attitude = bad.
Learning attitude = good.
Losing attitude and trying to fake its a learning attitude does not = good.

First of all, let’s all just chill here, all right? No need to get on Wonder_Chef’s case this badly. The more we say shit to him, the less he’ll listen. This isn’t just him, this is most people. So we aren’t getting anywhere right now.

So I appreciate what you’re saying, Chef. You’re really disappointed in your performance, so you banned yourself, believing full well you can make it back eventually. I respect that, and I’m down with it. It’s like you are self-punishing yourself for what you believed to be a bad night.

But here’s the thing: why not play the matches anyhow? If you lose, you get banned, which is what you wanted anyhow. If you win, come back next week and hopefully you won’t be cold this time. It’s a no-lose situation, right?

The only thing I can really nitpick on is the “I respect you guys’ method of motivating people through getting them pissed off…” comment. I think you’ve missed the point. We’re not trying to piss people off, make them mad so we wanna get better, we’re trying to provide proper “pressure situations.” A lot of the guys I talk to at shgl’s comment that they get nervous, especially when on the stream. One of the cats from SD said he got nervous the first time he played on the big screen at the Box Arena with commentators and such, and FEW PEOPLE are immune to that. And I told him, sadly, the only way to get better in those situations is simply to experience them more often. Getting desensitized to them is the only way to get over that.

And that’s actually what we’re trying to do at shgl’s. We’re not trying to make these ban tournaments to get angry. We don’t put ban matches on the stream to make fun of you. We DO make fun of you, but not because we’re trying to piss you off: we’re trying to get you used to it. People talk shit about matches ALLLLLLL day long, and it’s one of those facts of life. I have a Daigo vs. Valle match in 3rd Strike in my YouTube account, and I STILL get comments posted TO THIS DAY from people who think they played like garbage. So the shit talking is partially for entertainment purposes on the stream, and partially to get people to become more hardened warriors. Blah, where was I? Oh yeah, we do these things to provide pressure situations. We provide experience. And you’re not gonna get that from playing casuals where nothing is on the line.

Again, I hate it when people say Kobe is a jerk because he’s cocky. It’s attitude that wins you championships. You have to be cocky in a way to win. It’s like ChaiThai said, we’ve all said we suck. I do it all the time. But it doesn’t mean we truly believe it.

Again, the reason people are harping on you is because you did run. Regardless if you had your reasons, you chose not to take the challenge. It was a self-imposed punishment, I get it. But at the same time, just play, man. As hardcore as we try to make it all, we’re all still having fun. Playing is fun. So take the challenge and play and enjoy it. Enjoy the chance to be streamed and enjoy the pressure. It’s what competitive gaming is about.

I love it when I see Kobe win a really hard fought, super tough game, and he says in the post-game interview, “Man, this is just fun. I love it.”

I would like to reserve a spot for the next meeting. I can bring a ps3 and evo monitor.

Is that really your only defense? Me “losing” to you on the stream?

That’s it? I may have lost but at least I don’t bitch pathetically afterwards yelling at the people trying to help me. I asked for advice but Never did I once bitch and moan about how impossible it is or how Much I suck and yadda yadda yadda.

My cousin is a Med student. She’s training to become a doctor. She’s not the best doctor in the world, she’s doesn’t even have a PHD. But she still has to deal with patients day in and day out. One day, she had an AID’s patient come in-- and she was the one who had to help recessitate him. She didn’t go “Hey guys. I Don’t think I’m up to the task here… To be honest, the guy’s probably going to die anyway. I mean, I think I have a chance at saving him, but I haven’t been doing so well at this hospital lately, and I think I’m just gonna hang back. I need to go play Operation some more and learn how to not make the red clown nose go off and shit…”

Piss off. She fuckin went for it and saved the guys life.

I got a million more fucking analogy’s, but what you don’t seem to get is you PUSSIED OUT. You Pussying out is WAY WORSE than me losing to you the week before. How about this?

I LOST TO CHEF
I LOST TO CHEF
I LOST TO CHEF

here? I just posted you’re only argument 3 more times. Come up with better one. If you can’t? Shut the fuck up, and leave.

Lol TL:DR rapper. I beat you a week ago. And don’t you get it? I banned myself because I felt I deserved it. I could have beaten you again if I wanted to and the other seth and gen as well.

^^^
Saved you the trouble of bitching like a spoiled 4 year old.

Thanks.

red - that was the best shit i ever read on SRK today. :tup:

To be honest. I think things got waaaay out of hand after what I said. I think James got it right. We don’t really need to bash on Chef ( although i find it HIGHLARIOUS).

People do learn at different paces, that’s totally true. I think Busta is the perfect example of how to switch things around.

And Chef please don’t think we’re gonna jump or something. You really are a cool guy that’s fine and all. It’s just you’re exactly the person Valle describe in the first ban matches. You do realize that he’s trying to make us competitive worthy, but you just seem to not care as much or not want to follow the same rubric.

Hopefully you find your way around to get top 8. I just want you to know that this IS THE PLACE TO BE, to help you get there.

You’re name calling and tagging isn’t really that smart of choice and to talk back to. As an acquittance and a person who talks to you here and there I have to say that there is a lack of self confidence. All we were trying to say is NEVER GIVE UP. If you really are that type of player to be in competitive gaming, just try to think more of not only getting better, but the respect you want to have. Because obviously to be the top player is also asking for respect.

I also wanna promise you that the next time I see you vs. Redrapper play again. I’m gonna make sure that I put my life savings on Red because I’m 10000000% positive he’ll beat you next time. Atleast he’s made some improvements.

Please respect what SHGL, VAlle, and james are doing for us. I don’t know much longer we have with them until they call it quits. Utilize what they really have to say, no matter how harsh it is. Just listen, shut up, and don’t respond to what everyone else has to say to you.

Also I like Busta’s style, he really got in your ass.

I’ll MM Red for any amount of money. You down red? Your call.

EDIT: AyoChip, I don’t know who you are.

sorry boxxy, no wnf this week :frowning:

edit: err, this coming week

It’s me alex, (bison player)

Ah.

“You’re name calling and tagging isn’t really that smart of choice and to talk back to.”

Huh?

The point is don’t talk back to the people who are trying to help us. They give us the respect to allow all of us to come play, enjoy ourselves, and hopefully get us better. All these people (except Red) are high profile players. If you know them or not it shouldn’t matter. Just because they bash on you, it does not make you sound better by responding back and giving your side.

What’s done is done. GL on getting better, cuz I want to let you know SHGL’s is the only place that’s taking it to this extent. All the other “sessions” are just a really good place for players to come together and play FOR FUN.

Oh OK, I won’t even have an opinion next time, sorry.

Next time Valle trash talks me, I’ll just take it like a bitch.

Yea, i think people are getting out of hand, but please don’t talk back to valle. It just makes u look bad. He’s doing a lot for our community and he’s a fuckin legend, i haven’t played anyone at his level

edit: my post came out after yours for some reason. ya, swallow every drop roflz

Chef honestly… I can’t help you man. Whatever I say you’ll just have another thing to respond back to. I’m not cussing you out or nothing. You just seem to demoralize yourself more and more. It’s not only online either… I see you in person and you play these games and after you’re done you question yourself. It’s not about you being a bitch or not.

They’re putting in there time for us. Why can’t you just accept it and put atleast some bit of effort back by:

  1. Not quiting
  2. Take in all the shit and just improve on your own and let the gaming do the talking.

Performance is everything, it’s to bad you didn’t even perform.

Sorry, but I’m going to talk back to Valle all day if he insults me first.

I don’t care if Valle is God himself, there’s no reason to lay down like a bitch and take insults from him.

Alright… I officially give up on this guy. The thing is you would MM Red… Would you consider going against me?

I would consider it.

EDIT: I considered it. I would MM you.

Another DSO?
