When's Melty on Steam?
ahaha that's no--wait, what?
-
1) Brandino (dicks)
2) Xianior (balls)
Brandonino and Xianior (fuck len lol) are in grandfinals, but they had to stop because room closed at midnight. Current score is 2-0 brandon, but he has to win 2 ft4 sets. Xianor (fuck len lol) looks like he doesn't know how to fight ciel though, and branndino IS HUNGRYYYYYYYYYYYYYY >:D COME ON XIANIOR MAKE THIS SHIT HYPE.
Brandonino runs that all the way back from loser's first round, lololol.
3) some drunk guy NANAYA (xianor j.c raped his face in winners finals, then brandon COMES BACK FROM 0-2, 1 round IN 3RD GAME TO WIN LOSERS FINALS! CLUUUUUTCH! props to both playas)
4) choco SATSUKI (got OWNED by Hnana, then OWNED him in losers. peaced out in a very close match with Branidnino. HYPE MM TOMORROW)
6) chibi HISIU (lost to xianor(fuck len lol), then had close gamne with brandon but dropped too much shit. also farted too much (ill edit this out tomorrow lol)
6) kurumster VSION (YA SON TOP 8 got peaced out in a close game with brandon. Ciel dash goes under Sion 5a LEARN DAT 2a MASH1)
8) Jaxx NERO (lost to xianor (poor Jaxx, len j.c was hitting from everyone ) and choco)
8) Frankthetank ARC(surprise top8 imo, dudes got potential just need to get DAT EXPERIENCE. took brandon to 3rd game, but brandon just ran ciels combo into oki and showed franks lack of experience. netplay against more people and learn those chars!)
honorable mention: DOREN WHAT HAPPENED :blah:
more results i dont i wasnt watching, someone will post full brackets tomorrow. Tomoorow is Brandon vs Choco 100$ MM with huge sidepot and potential Team Tourney :psyduck: I also want to MM brandon for 100$ while sober but he said no :emo: :emo: :emo: :emo:
replays were saved i dunnow hos gonna upload em.
-
Xianoir is too sick... (Multi is as well, but I guess he didn't make it to FRXI) Both Xianoir and Multi destroyed me in AZ and definitely gave Choco hot competition. That's when I knew they were gonna make people respect 'em.
------
Although I didn't manage to personally hand Choco the cash, I have well enough money and I'm not bailing on the bet. Hopefully, Choco got my voicemail and he'll spot me for the cash.
-
OH WTF XIANIOR OWNED ME IRL TOO
dude came in here with his friends and drank ALL my vodka fuck that
gotta drink Jaxx's ghetto ass Sake lol (everyone knows the best sake comes from hotlanata :toot:)
And to keep this shit on topic...
Dark Prince wins some MVC2 MM but loses by wearing a checkered sweater vest and jerri curl :slowpoke:
-
I guessed right, #SRM rapes FR. Cept you jiyuna. ALWAYS NEXT TIME.
-
well i did get peaced out by #srm so.... >:D
and yes, always next time :)

CHOCO MAH NIGGA

choco vs. brandino, money match: 10-5, choco
Grats Choco!
-
No one willing to MM me ::) ::)
-
Mailorder and GNdrive - $50
Stephen and rashreflection - $50
THESE SIDE BETS HAVE NOT BEEN PAID UP. GNdrive and rashreflection need to pay up them bux. You don't put money down if you're not going to keep up with the match and pay up in the end. Come to room 229 in the Holiday Inn to sort this out.
-
Guess I can't be getting sad over free money
atleast lets TRY to bring SOME hype to this shit Blahblahblah
If a "netplay warrior" can do it, I'm pretty sure you guys can too
I plan on going to Grand Finals no doubt, and as far as ANYONE from AZ trying to shut me down...I have to lol at that.
and damn right I'm talking shit for Final Round, if you don't like it then you're willing to try and stop me.
Yo, in case Justin Wong doesn't play the game and accept my money match at FR I'll be more than happy to open it up to anyone...
FT W/E for $100.
My Ciel vs. whoever
Well that means anyone going to FR willing to put $100 on the line...you know what to do.
Free Money
Free Money
Free Money
Free Money
Free Money
Unless you've gotten better from NEC8, I KNOW I'm getting that $100 and if not win final round atleast make top 5. Blahblahblah
And call me cocky/arrogant if you want, but all I'm trying to do is hype this shit up anyway I can. If I win I win. If I lose I'll man up and give your money. I'm not the type to talk big and flake out.
Of course I'll play stick. I'm not gonna back out of this now.
-
Maaaaaan, this game is SO RANDOM... What was the matchup ratio?
... Oh wait, it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought: 5.71:4.29 in favor of Ciel. I thought it was going to be 6+. I didn't give Choco enough credit though. Good shit, Choco :V
BTW, that makes WT9? WTX and FRXI icons I have to make. Though this means Brandino still wins another badge :prinny: :prinny: :prinny: If Choco won Team tourney though, fair game~
-
WHO REALLY GETS TO TALK?
-
BTW, that makes WT9? WTX and FRXI icons I have to make.
Get to it. >:( *cracks whip*
WHO REALLY GETS TO TALK?
Yeah, really. ???
-
Baldino won the tourney, but I won what I came to win. Good shit all around.
-
Jiyu - Me and chibi tied for 5th. And i wouldn't say choco owned me, nor would i say i owned choco, they were all pretty close iirc.
GG's to choco, glad i put up more of a fight this time around than i did at NEC.
GG's to Jiyu, you played too solid, couldn't break through your strong defense.
GG's to everyone else i played, as well.
Me vs Choco random char $1 matches are too good.

Good shit all around. If I wasnt such a noob at hooking up commentary, this tourney would be awesomeness. Still, the bottom top 8 have been recorded and replays were saved. I have no idea when they'll be up. Maybe when Im fully awake.
-
Wow, from the looks of it I could have even made top 13.
-
Good stuffs to everyone.
I may have placed last but, to anyone that saw me play, I made my point. I'm actually starting to take this game more seriously.
I'm sure I'da done better if I'da had more time to practice before the tourney. I scrubbed out in EVERY game I played so just the fact that I was able to put up somewhat of a fight makes me feel more confident in my skills.
[EDIT] and just so everyone who wasn't there knows... once again, melty was MADD HYPE!!!
-
What happened to GNDrive and rashreflection? Were these two guys expecting to hide in the sidelines and collect money if they won and disappear if they lost? Because Choco had my cash and Stephen's cash upfront before the match. Pay up, boys.
-
choco vs. brandino, money match: 10-5, choco
YEAH
BEST MELTY BLOOD PLAYER IN THE US WHOOOOOO
...too bad he's now broke. looooool
He walks out with...$100 more dollars.
I walk out with...$287+Pimp Cup (Yes, a pimp cup) and I'm broke?
:psyduck: :slowpoke: LOL
Also, I really don't know what you guys are smoking sense Choco came into our room and Rash gave him the $50 so....wtf are you guys talking about ??? GNDrive however...not my problem.
-
Nigga you walked out of the room after the money match and left the entire cup with the money and your wallet in the room for over an hour. You're absurdly lucky noone walked off with it, real talk.
That's proof enough to me that Choco did alot more then take your money.
And while I give you props on winning MB, I have to say you lost alot of respect from some of us with your pompous attitude. Telling someone they don't deserve a money match because they got third is pretty damn grimey.
-
good shit Xaq getting 2nd!!! and chibi getting 5th. i wish i coulda gone to this seems like it kicked ass :prinny: yeah Xaq prinny just because you needs them
-
good shit Xaq getting 2nd!!! and chibi getting 5th.
lol, look again :V
-
Telling someone they don't deserve a money match because they got third is pretty damn grimey.
... he said that?!
-
i wasnt there des coffin thats a different player. he is a len player from texas iirc.
-
good shit Xaq getting 2nd!!! and chibi getting 5th.
lol, look again :V
hahah oh shit it was Xianior..that way to similar hahahh to xaqshinor i thought you got lazy and combined that and made your own name...but props to Xianior then!!! so you didnt end up goin =3
-
Nigga you walked out of the room after the money match and left the entire cup with the money and your wallet in the room for over an hour. You're absurdly lucky noone walked off with it, real talk
Omg no doubt. That was way too much money in way too public of an area.
And i got a pimp cup too. :D
-

No one has told anyone rashreflection paid up.
And go ahead, lick your wounds. You get money, you lose pride. Your grand finals was anti-hype. After jiyuna fucked around and lost, and people say Xian's performance the night before, disinterest all around. I had to force myself to come late to watch, mostly 'cause my stuff was in use for the actual match.
-
Choco my NIGGA u/l that hype tape!
HICABALE DICKABLES
-
Telling someone they don't deserve a money match because they got third is pretty damn grimey.
... he said that?!
No, I didn't. I never said Jiyuna wasn't worth MM'ing over. He said he would MM anyone who won that MM. I never said that he wasn't worthy. I fucking HUGGED the guy after the match and told him good shit. Why would I turn around and say he's not worthy.
-
Ok there Brandon.
We got that shit on tape, so keep digging yourself in deeper, we'll keep throwing the dirt in over you.
-
No one has told anyone rashreflection paid up.
Are you serious? You walked right into my room and asked "who is rashreflection", and I gave you the $50. I was the short white guy with the Nightwish shirt.
After jiyuna fucked around and lost, and people say Xian's performance the night before, disinterest all around.
lol "fucked around and lost"
Is this gonna become like the Tekken community, where every single loss ever is due to "fucking around" or "random bullshit"?
Also, the grand finals had to be played way early because of all the other stuff that ran late...but the LOSER'S finals was crazy hype shit. And overall, those big screen matches got people OUTSIDE this community interested in the game - something that can't be said for all the IRC "hype" (a.k.a. dickriding and hating on your own game).
Whatever...
-Josh
-
Actually Jiyuana and Xian were pretty damn hungover, so they've learned their lesson on that end, but this is more or less just a bit of tough love being thrown about. It's a good thing imho, it shows we're growing as a community, because we never really had this type of thing happen before anyway.
:3

You misunderstood what I said about you. No one told Brandino or anyone else online that yes, you HAVE paid up. I meant no offense there.
As for jiyuna, yeah, he fucked around. He fucking paid for it and didn't win bucks. He's totally to blame for fucking around. He's kicking himself for drinking before the match, and we're kicking him over it, too.
-
Bah, that's enough drama on the matter:
SHOUTOUTS:
Andrew: Thanks for the room, and congrats on getting third, drunk or not :V! Glad to finally just chill with you after playing online, you're an absurdly cool guy to hang out with, hope to continue doing so in the future! I'll keep lvl'ing up to get you to see me and Sphyra as being equals (or perhaps better), but for now I want to keep playing you! All my hate for your play style has mysteriously turned into hype, go figure! 2AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Pfhor: Man our casuals were great, you play such a sick pair of maids, I can't think of anyone else in the damn nation who could match up to you. It's great that you came out, hope your first tournament was an enjoyable one. Make it out to some more!
Voomer: Ahhhhhhh your Chaos is a beast! You are so freaking quiet irl man, shit had me going crazy trying to squeeze some emotion out of you, haha. Thanks for lending me Hino, you know damn well I'm going to learn that game now! Hope to see you at another tournament asap!
Jaxx and Choco: Couldn't have asked for better people to room with, nothing but love and respect for you guys. Congrats on placing to both of you, to winning the mm Choco, and thanks for just being awesome people the entire weekend. Jaxx, you are fucking hilarious, and Choco your brain is constantly overflowing with good shit, full of energy!
Shinobi: Pimpppppppppppppppppppin! Good shit on getting the equipment for commentary, sorry if mine sucked nards, I lost my voice half way and just couldn't keep up in the damn match.
PBJ: Shit you are so hype, I love that! Screaming your soul out! Don't ever stop!
Brandon: Good shit on first guy, but you better watch because we're all still gunning for you.
I'm sure I'm missing other people, but I'm hella tired now, sorry!
-
No prob Chibs. Mines was pretty ok for my first time but Ima re-do mines at the house...hehe
GS to everyone I played especially Jaxx on Friday. Your Chaos is good shit sir. And Ima kill Choco for not playing me at all this weekend real talk. >:(
-
why is chibi acting (posting?) black? rofl
anyway, grats to Choco on the MM, Brandon for teh win, and Rob for beasting in DAT ARCANA!~!11!1!
-
Tournament was ran really smooth and I had a lot of good matches with everyone. I guess next time I'll remember to mash 2a instead of 5a against Len and Ciel. I like losing to first and second place. I was also still playing 4 delay lol. Guess I should've played some casuals? :psyduck:
-
Chibi - Our 2 casual matches were sooooo hype. It was awesome, and that was the most fun i had playing melty in a LONG time.
Voomer - Mad GG's in the smash room with casuals. That was too fun, and its so hard for me against a good Nrvnsqr, so that's exactly what i need to play against. :D
I gotta mash more 2A. I think i block too much... ::)
-
It just clicked that rashreflection is the same dude I know from willvolution forums. he's a real chill guy, I've no doubt that he put the money up front. sorry for the accusation, bro.
now to solve the mystery of this GNDrive fellow.

choco vs. brandino, money match: 10-5, choco
YEAH
BEST MELTY BLOOD PLAYER IN THE US WHOOOOOO
...too bad he's now broke. looooool
He walks out with...$100 more dollars.
I walk out with...$287+Pimp Cup (Yes, a pimp cup) and I'm broke?
Learn to do math.
You won the tournament, and then immediately turned around and lost $100 of that to Choco. So you may not be broke (insert racist comment about poor money management from a certain ethnic background here), but you immediately spewed a lot of your winnings right out.
Not MMing Jiyuna was a bitch move, too. Well, not MMing him in and of itself is fine (hell I would have refused too, then again I'm not AMERICA'S BEST MB PLAYER AAAAAAAAAA), but in the manner you did so was wack as fuck.

I should learn how to do math? Maybe you should get your facts straight. Important parts in bold :teach:
OK, I won the tournament (almost $300), got to be on radio along with Xianoir and S-Shinobi to get this name game out there and explain how well this game has been doing and how much hype this game has gotten, gotten respect outside the Melty Blood community and potentially brought in new players, have another interview about winning FRXI and my thoughts about it, thanks to losers finals AND grand finals this tournament was easily one of the most hyped game at FRXI. Now was a lot of my winnings really spewed right out? I don't think so.
Now about me MM'ing Jiyuna...Jiyuna (being drunk) asked EITHER MYSELF OR CHOCO for a MM after ours were over...that part I know. Jiyuna (still drunk) ask S-Shinobi (who was drunk) to MM me for $50. That part I didn't know because Jiyuna didn't ask me personally. He asked S-Shinobi to ask me if I wanted to MM him...but he didn't get the chance to ask me. So how the fuck can I bitch out a MM I didn't even know about :slowpoke: :slowpoke:
-
All I got to say about this whole deal between choco and brandino is Brandino won the battle(The tourney), choco won the war(mm, pride, and beautiful tearful distruction...it was great), and the proof that choco won the war is, WE HAD TO GET YOU TO COME GET YOUR WALLET, MONEY, AND PIMP CUP NIGGA. If I was grimy that shit would of been in my pockets. Don't make it out like you didn't leave the room with tears son, whats really good?!?!?!? :mystery:
This is what we are talking about, yes you are a good player, we know that. But you still haven't earned respect here in the community, and thats ok, because it should fuel your fire. You got good shit, but you gotta calm that cocky shit down sometimes. If I readly recall, after Jiyuna put that ass into the losers bracket, you got focused. But later on down the line you went back to your pad. :mystery: it is what the fuck it is.
Shinobi my man with the suit, good shit baby. You need to keep playing though. Gotta get that good match up exp, and you'll be fine.
PBJ you too, you'll be fine once you get some match up exp. Sorry about that double perfect in the first round...I got mad. :teach:
Jiyuna, chibi....you enjoy a package of Dr. Samuel Cilene Dion Tran's Old fashion Country Dickables when you got home? People have already said what I think of you guys. You guys know what's up.
Spooky, whats good son?!?!? I was looking foward to seeing you. Maybe next time.
Nas good shit baby, that T Shiki was on point, but man you get mad easily. Did you ever find that dude for that stick??
Xaq....your got damn len. Good shit though baby, I gotta find ways around that.
I know I'm forgetting people(like my mans that played nero) I had a good time. I look forward to seeing you again.
Oh yea what yall know about that Ex Ben and Jerry's and that Ex Cornflakes?!?!?!?

You guys "winning" this whole "war" is bullshit. If you guys wanted my pride, "beautiful" tearful destruction, AND ALL my money...you would've done it in TOURNAMENT...not just the MM. You really wanna break me down and shit? Do it in both MONEY MATCH AND TOURNAMENT.
Also...you say I haven't won respect in this community? How the fuck can I or anyone for that matter win respect when this community doesn't even respect itself nowadays? Wanna know how I know the MB community doesn't respect itself? Look at SpiritJuice, HellMonkey, and see what has the entire #MBAC IRC channel has turned into and you'll find your answer. Because winning majors clearly isn't enough and seeing how I have the history of being a "netplay warrior" and "netplay scrub" for almost 2 years that surely doesn't help me much.
So I just wanna know: How does someone like myself who has finally been able to have the power and means to go out to these tournaments (and winning them ) earn this "respect"?
-
By not being a huge douche. You haven't mentioned the MM at all on your own. You're downplaying your failure by always bringing up winning the tournament instead. How about you start trying to be a part of the community instead of talking shit where you can't back it up? You put down 10 bucks to win the tourney. When you had to put down 100 bucks, you lost. This is why losing the MM weighs heavier than winning the tournament. There was a lot more on the line.
Let's get this shit rolling. Evo World, FT10, $500, any controller allowed (keyboard with the other player's keys removed), short breaks allowed. Take it or leave it. Win whatever tournaments you want, I don't give a fuck. Real money on the line = real talk.
Oh, and any controller malfunctions loses the player that game.
-
I still hardly play this fucking game but the Brandino shit is pretty ridiculous. I offer an additional $50 3/5 MM to Brandino. (wtf $50 sounds cheap now)
-
From my perspective, you're being too cocky. Choco's giant quote of what you said regarding AZ Melty Blood is proof of it. I would never see or hear those kind of words coming from Zar, Sp00ky or Arlieth. Even though I was a nobody, I received words of encouragement from Sp00ky and Arlieth at WT4 (wow, that was awhile ago). You could say you're trash talking for hype, but is it good hype? It creates drama like we're seeing now.
So you're asking how to get respect from the MB community? Take a look at Choco. His early impressions at West Toasts were not good. He came off as an aggressive weeboo faggot with a Satsuki that lost to Mason and Leo. But his reputation changed at Evo. And it wasn't just because he won his money match with Leo. After he won, he invited Leo for drinks. No trash talking, no arrogant aura. People took a second look at Choco and realized that he's not a dick. He's actually a chill dude. And it's true that Choco comes off as a dick at times. But when he does, he apoligizes. It's happened right here in the forums - you've seen it. Choco's respected in the community not just because he's won a few money matches, but because he's a chill dude who can be humble when he needs to be.
Just so you know, I have never downplayed netplay. So I hope you won't think I'm attacking you just because of that. Psylocke's the first person to show me that being good in netplay DOES account for skill on arcade/console. And I've got mad respect for him, along with Xianoir and Multi who you probably know also came from netplay backgrounds.
We know you're good. You've already got respect for that. But you're losing respect for not respecting your competition. If all your actions are stemmed from some sort of inferiority-complex over people hating on netplay, I hope you'll come to your senses - not everyone hated on netplay. And for the people who did, winning a major tournament was the first step. Being chill about it was the next. When you prove people wrong, you need to back off a bit and let it sink in. You don't rub it in their faces. Not just because it's the best method to change peoples' minds, but because it's good sportsmanship. Even if people talked trash about you, you should win tournaments and show you're better by NOT trash talking back. Poke a little fun here and there, sure. You don't have to be a statue. Just don't be fanatical. All you gotta do to gain respect in this community is chill out.
Of course, you can keep on doing what you're doing if you'd like. Even in professional sports, there are atheletes who decide to toss sportsmanship aside and decide to be cocks anyway. It's your call.
(the words posted are from the perspective from a scrubby MB player who was not at any of the tournaments where above-mentioned incidents occurred. the poster was aware of this fact and intended to post his opinion without giving off an impression that he knew exactly what he was talking about, but had a rough idea.)

You don't rub it in their faces. Not just because it's the best method to change peoples' minds, but because it's good sportsmanship. Even if people talked trash about you, you should win tournaments and show you're better by NOT trash talking back. Poke a little fun here and there, sure. You don't have to be a statue. Just don't be fanatical. All you gotta do to gain respect in this community is chill out.
Of course, you can keep on doing what you're doing if you'd like. Even in professional sports, there are atheletes who decide to toss sportsmanship aside and decide to be cocks anyway. It's your call.
(the words posted are from the perspective from a scrubby MB player who was not at any of the tournaments where above-mentioned incidents occurred. the poster was aware of this fact and intended to post his opinion without giving off an impression that he knew exactly what he was talking about, but had a rough idea.)
In theory, this is completely correct and everybody should take note of this manner of thinking. However at Final Round both sides were pretty much dicks to each other, not much sportsmanship on either side. Brandon and Choco took this thing too far.
Besides all that shit the tourney was fun as hell, didn't do as well as I thought I would but got plenty of casuals and met a bunch of cool people. Good shit all around.

Seriously... this drama needs to end! Brandino won the tourney, Choco won the MM... that's all. I may not have been a part of the community for very long, but I do know that calling an even bigger MM isn't going to solve anything! Let's just all put this behind us.
I say this because I've spoken with both sides numerous times at FR and you are both chill. The thing is, both of you took this rivalry too far and it resulted in this. Brandino's no cocky MF... I know that because he even told me himself that the MM was going to be a tough battle (this was over a month ago). Him talking smack and calling it "FREE MONEY" was just hype talk and, to an extent, a joke. He was actually very nervous about it and I had to keep reassuring him that he'll be fine. I agree that Brandino went too far with the talk, but I can assure you it ain't happening again (not on my watch!). If you want to blame someone, blame me for constantly telling him that he's got this.
All I'm saying is, you both need to calm down and let this be an actual rivalry and not an attempt to destroy each other. I'd rather we didn't end up like the Tekken community and actually be one that can get along with everyone (I know we can because I get along with a lot of you guys... and I'm quite the asshole! ;D).
Jaxx - Well... seeing as I pissed you off, and I play Sion who pisses EVERYONE off, it means I must be doing something right! :V I'll try to keep leveling up as much as I can. Your Chaos scared the shit outta me (j.C x n = :'()

The war has been settled. This money match here is simply a money match. I'm throwing out another challenge, and if he think he can top it, good for him. No calling anyone a chicken, no johns, no pressure. If he wants to call it and practice up, good shit. If not, oh well. I will say that if the match is taken and I win, the money is going straight into an Actress Again supergun fund.
As for Tare, though, his bullshit and whining got on my nerves, so the offer of a $200 MM against him with the same rules as above stands as a grudge match. He probably won't take it, since he's demanding FT5 just to be a little bitch. If I don't agree to his terms, QQ, no money for you.
-
Man, y'all are dorks. Look, Brandino won the FRXI Melty tournament, so he gets his FRXI badge and his pimp cup and whatevers. Choco beat Brandino 10-5 in a moneymatch, so officially, Choco > Brandino. For now. Rematches have to be settled at the next event. There ain't no battle, there ain't no war, just a bunch of you Melty players that needs to get their heads screwed on straight. Then we can actually enjoy all this and bet on the Phoenix Suns vs. Columbus... uhh...

lol what did brandon say/do thats pissing everyone specifically
lol at hype trailer, gogo fucking waffles
gratz for brandon for winning his 2nd major, hes 2 for 2
gratz for choco winning his MM, as for the post that brandon made a long time ago about free money, IIRC that was before you guys added the extra rule of only stix, although brandon did beat you 5 games on stix a more accurate result of whos better is if brandon did get to use his pre-historic time pad
SCOOPS!!!

Sup Mailorder. =) I just wanted to say a few things re: your post.
This latest event wasn't about netplay. Now, NEC...yep, that was definitely about the netplay thing. But since then, people here have learned what's up; I'm actually impressed with how well the Melty community understands the value of netplay, compared to SRK.
The thing with Brandon is that after NEC he expected to be regarded as a top player, since a good number of the top players were there and he came out above them. We talked about some of this stuff when I drove him back home today, but I think he didn't realize that new players rarely get credit right off the bat and you have to keep doing it over a period of time for people to buy into you.
Actually, he reminds me a lot of myself when I was around his age - cares a lot (probably TOO much) about the game and its surrounding drama, people's reputations, etc. A lot of what pisses him off used to piss me off back then; it eventually drove me to quit gaming altogether for over a year, during which I gained a sense of perspective and realized how utterly meaningless most of this shit is. I've been relating my experiences to him and trying to help him understand how shit works, so hopefully he'll get things figured out quicker than I did.

THIS, IS, SPARTAAAAAAAAA
Warning, tldr post, I'll just post the relevant stuff;
> <Chocy> FT10, $200, any control method except keyboard unless the other player's keys are removed. Short breaks allowed, Evo World. Anything else?
> > FT10, how about FT5
> <Chocy> For $200? Get out of here.
<Greyvangelist> hhahahha
> > What? You decline?
> <Chocy> FT10.
> > FT5
> <Chocy> FT10. I am not backing down from this.
> > FT5, I'm not either
<Greyvangelist> rofl
> <Chocy> Then you're chickening out
> > LOL
> > Your Harman logic is brilliant
> > I must be chickening out
<Chocy> So let me break it down
<Chocy> FT10, accept whenever you want. I'm not down for quick money, let's decide who's better.
<Chocy> If you don't accept, that's your choice.
<Chocy> But going to FT5 on a match for double the money of my matches vs. Leo and Brandino is just you being a massive dick to me a massive dick
> Uhhh, let's get this straight
> I just said for 4 times in a row
> FT5
> But you're making it sound like Im chickening out cause Im not taking FT10
> Am i correct
<Chocy> Haha. Well, not worth my time or my money, apparently. Kinda dumb though
<Chocy> You're trying to gain hardbody respect when you haven't even proven yourself yet
> It's nort worth your time? Isnt FT5 shorter
<Greyvangelist> shield your eyes
<Chocy> So I think I'll just /ignore and be done with you. If you're good enough, PM me on meltybread.com accepting FT10
<Chocy> Scrub.
- At this point Choco mutes me but keeps going on with words and asks people to copy paste what I've said in response cause he ignored me (?) -
<Chocy> Ooooookay
<Chocy> So, on an ending note, no matter what the guy who doesn't know how MMs go (FT10) because he doesn't go outside of his home to play says:
<Chocy> I worked for my status in the community. Since you have not, I am not going to respect you and your bullshit FT5. Shit makes me lol.
<Chocy> So if you want to earn your place in the community, make your first MM important, accept someone else's rules, and win. That will make you rank up. But demanding FT5 just sounds wussy and doesn't gain you ANY respect
<Chocy> Let's have some odds. Maybe that'll think about accepting a real MM
<Chocy> FT10, $200 if I win, $300 if he wins
FT10 is the standard for any MM money match, any other rules are by means not valid or decisive whatsoever. Be forewarned for all you future money matchers that want to enter the big leagues, FT10 only.

First to ten is fucking retarded.
Man the fuck up and do that shit first to five for several hundred dollars, stop trying to cushion that shit.
@ Josh:
This community is still too damn young to be considering anyone as a top player. Winning two tournaments with only 30 something odd entrants won't grant anyone shit imho, outside of just getting that money. That's not to say that Brandon isn't any good, because he is good, but noone in this community really has the right to be given that title, and I don't think they will for quite a while. You can claim bragging rights all you want mind you, but pushing 'top player status' is getting ahead of yourself.
-
In b4 come strapped, making a video of your crew smoking bud, banning of people at majors, unbanning people at majors, being quiet about the scene, people making jokes of past events. Seriously, this is really fucking dumb but whatever, it's free entertainment.

OK, now to actually post about the tourney! I was the small white guy playing Kouma, in case anyone doesn't know.
Pfhor & Voomer, nice meeting you guys, and thanks for showing me something that makes Fatal Fake look good!
PBJ, you're the best ever. You should be at every major, this must become a law.
Real talk, Shinobi, you consistently bring the real talk. Real talk!
Jiyuna, god DAMN you are scary, I've got too much respect for ya.
Xianoir, didn't get to see you play as much, but congrats on 2nd, and Len is evil.
Chibi, keep on playing dat SNK! Maybe next time we could even get some Melty games - won't be trying any more hotel tournies anytime soon! =P
Rob, you're a god damn sexy beast (no homo), but you already know that.
Choco, you did what you set out to do, nothing left to say but "good fucking shit"! MEESHUN KUMPRETE.
Jaxx, that was a good match! DAMN THE ZOO AAAGGGGGHHH
Kurum, you killed me just as bad IRL as you did in netplay. Need to get over the V.Sion hump!
And Brandon, we've already been through this, so I don't need to say anything more. Great job in the tourney, now just focus on the game, level your shit up for next time, and stay strong.
Good times, everyone, and hope to see you at MWC!

I'll have to agree with Chibi here. FT10 is just way too much. With a theoretical max of 19 matches it becomes a test of endurance rather than a test of skill. If you are even remotely confident in yourself, FT3 should be sufficient. If you don't have confidence, don't play.
-
I disagree with FT3 and FT5. Sure, if there is a big gap of skill and experience, these game requirements are enough. FT10, however, is more definitive as to who the best player is. Not only are more matches played, but against people close in skill level, there's a lot more analyzing, experimentation, and emotional fluctuations than in a shorter match like FT5. The point of these money matches of mine is to prove who can be the better MB player overall, not just at winning a few matches. In the FT10, Brandino and I were almost neck-in-neck after 8-9 games. I forget if he got to 5 first, I'd have to check the replays. When it came down to it, a cool head was what came through in the end. So while there may be some "endurance" involved, the dynamics of a FT10 are much more appealing to me than FT3 or FT5.
In short, I'll continue issuing FT10 matches for big money from now on.
-
First to 3 or 5 can display skill just as easily as a first to ten can, a first to ten's real purpose is just endurance, and that's something better applied to a tournament match. GF at FRXI were absurdly quick (for obvious drunkard reasons), but look at NEC 7, where GF's between Spooky and Zar took around 45 minutes. I mean I can understand wanting to play 1st to ten with $100 on the line, but it does the complete opposite for people watching really. Noone knew you won the damn MM until half an hour later because we had all up and left at that point.
Think about it, if you're going on for 19 games, you're going to hit auto pilot somewhere along the line for sure, but if you've only got three or five matches to get under your belt, you're going to be playing at 1,000% efficiency, where as you can cushion your losses in a first to ten.
I mean come on, 'breaks' between matches? You shouldn't even get that luxury, adapt quick or lose out.
-
El oh fucking El
This shit done got way outta hand, but choco has a point about the money match thing. You can go ballz to the wall in a ft5 it actually takes endurance and mental strength to win a ft10. With 200 and 500 bux up, I wouldn't back down if I was choco either. 100 ft5 is borderline, I do agree with that, but anymore than that, a true skill showing should go.
Hey hellmonkey, anything over 100 in gg do u guys go ft10 or ft5, because I know in marvel they do ft3 for 100?

Well, no matter how good anyone thinks they are, we all would still get knocked out first round at SBO, so we all suck anyways. And yes, this includes myself, anyone who may have won national tournaments, or large FT10 matches.
Seriously, why don't you guys just focus on getting better as a community instead of fighting all the time? Then again, what do i know about being good, im just a scrub... :blah:

These FT3/5 vs. FT10 arguments remind me of arguments on Track team back in High School. Which takes more skill: sprinting or distance running? Answer: They BOTH take skill.
- FT3/5 shows a player's skill in adapting quickly.
- FT10 shows a player's skill in mental stamina.
Of course Tare (and magz) support FT5. Sion has so many tricks up her sleeve - it will take more effort to get used to her mix-up as opposed to say... Shiki. Tare intends to overwhelm Choco before he can adjust.
And of course Choco supports FT10. Satsuki is statistically the worst character in the game. Her only strong point is okizeme. Choco intends to take his time on studying Tare's patterns so he can wear him out in the long run.
In addition to skill, both require confidence. It takes confidence to not panic against a character with sick mixup and you're playing first to 5. It also takes confidence to remain calm against an opponent experienced with endurance runs.
Clearly, Tare and Choco have different strengths - and their "first to" preferences reflect that. Instead of pointing fingers and saying who's a chicken and what takes more skill, why not compromise and go first to 7/8?
-
Practically speaking, whoever wants the match more had better be prepared to accept the reluctant party's terms. The money match doesn't need to happen.
Politically speaking, I feel that choco may safely ignore Tare's challenges until Tare does well in a live tournament or two. In fact, it'd be best for him to do so- choco has more to lose at this point. More than Tare could possibly lose until Tare does well in a live tournament or two himself.

Issuing money matches is a stupid way to generate artificial and unnecessary pressure and false motivation to try and get one to play better. The truth of the matter is simple: you will improve by studying the game, working on execution, gaining matchup experience, and constantly adapting your gameplan. The Melty scene is too young and early for this sort of bullshit. Marvel needs it because the game is old and done, it needs the drama to stay alive. How about we get a tournament where we can get at least half the people there up to HF/Arly/Sp00ky/Zar's level before we start trying to hype shit up with drama. You guys have no idea how poorly it reflects on the community when an outsider watches matchvids and sees maybe 20-30% of the BnBs being dropped; it makes both the game and its players look bad.
-
Money matches, however, are a great way to quickly make/lose money.

Awesome, I get to post this again:
(http://img251.imageshack.us/img251/4152/roundmatchwinrates2vm.png)
This is actually for rounds/set, but it works for sets/match too.
Honestly, it matters most when the players are close in skill (but not absurdly close). The bigger the skill gap gets, the larger the initial jump is but the quicker the function reaches the natural limit (of 100%).
Politically speaking, I feel that choco may safely ignore Tare's challenges until Tare shows up to a live tournament or two.
Fixed.

lolz
Then again, for the longest time (and even today, to a small extent) Japanese players drop combos in this game. We understand why, and it is our responsibility as players to fight around the problem as best as possible, but an outsider watching the game is not going to know that. Hopefully they fix that shit in MB:AA.
Not if it's first to 10.
I actually tried to figure this out -- then I realized that I'm way too lazy to right now.
However, there is something similar that occurs in gambling where you actually would opt to take a smaller edge over a shorter cycle instead of a better edge over a longer cycle. Now this ultimately depends on bankrolls and actual edges gained/loss, but it ultimately comes down to winrate per hour (worked or not).
Short answer: Zaeler is actually right. :psyduck:
This isn't really about logic, though -- Choco just wanted to pizownor Brandino.
-
First to Ten was set by Marvel vs Capcom 2 standards. We still follow that standard in all other games, especially at Evo (i.e.: FT10 in 3rd Strike Amir vs Hsien).
Any money match of $100 or over should go FT10, in my opinion. Extended matches are designed to eliminate gimmicks as well as luck.
FT5 if there's a whole bunch of money matches in a row to take care of, otherwise.
However, I do think Choco was in an advantageous position in a FT5 anyhow. Tare doesn't have the tournament experience that Choco does regarding that matchup.
EDIT: Just read Zaelar's comment: He's actually right :psyduck:

p. much this
Also, bellreisa wins this fucking thread. And if Brandon had beaten Choco but then, say, lost to Jiyuna in the tourney, I'd be saying the same thing.
I side with the Cannons on this one: Money matches are an easy out for people who've convinced themselves that they can't win tournaments. As I recall (someone PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong), that's basically how they got started in Marvel - Justin & Sanford were guaranteed top 2 at any tourney they went to, so people looked for another way to make themselves "famous" (lol).
Honestly, if fighting games truly want to become professionalized, I don't know if that shit can stay. There's a reason you don't hear about big money matches in tennis or golf...

Every Tennis and Golf tournament(Major and side tournies) have stupidly large pots where more than the top three bring home winnings. A $100 golf or tennis match is NOWHERE near big money in that circle. This is not a good comparison in any shape or form. People that play proffesional sports in this country make an insane amount of money and have sponsors and agents(to find them ways of making even more money) And also what is a $100 match when membership to a golf or a tennis club will cost you several times that amount. Once again, Video Games/Proffesional Sports=not a good comparison.
-
I think FT10 is fine in Marvel or GG, but Melty is slow and boring and I'd probably kill myself before a FT10 finished. True answer to FT3 vs FT5 vs FT10 = learn Guilty Gear.
-
FT10 in MB is like FT10 in CvS2: everyone loses, especially the spectators.
-
Yeah I've been echoing Bell's sentiments for a while now (I didn't bother watching one match of the MM to begin with), but I can't stop certain people from doing whatever they want so that's how it is I guess.
But yeah, ft 10 in MB is really stupid, sorry. I gurantee after a certain point that people will go into auto pilot, and that's obviously not a good thing.
-
Choco, why not let Tare have FT5, since your the one who challenged Tare. Be a sport like Brandon did. I say the last line because of the stipulation you imposed on Brandon if he wanted to have a MM against you. If you really care about being in the "big leagues", as you like to say, then wouldn't it be better to take less matches, as it will potentially require for you to be more solid with your character? Such matches like that give great practice that will certainly help you prepare for the inevitable SBO qualifier we will get. Never say never!
Seriously though, be a sport, sport. =)

Tied for 17th....much better than I thought I did. Maybe next year i'll actually play the game prior to FR so I can get dat placement a little higher. Or atleast I won't drop combos out of nowhere as often as I did this year. Tournament ran really good too.
Chibi: MM next year? I'll be training hardcore this time.
-
Just thought I'd throw out that the sanford vs duc match was FT7, since we're copying mvc2 for no reason. I'll also throw out that there are 3/5 mvc2 money matches. Oh, what to do, copying mvc2 answered one question but asks the same one again.
Money matches are WHATEVER THE FUCK THE TWO PEOPLE PLAYING AGREE ON. STFU and don't make people suffer through anything longer than first to 5 unless you have $1000 or more in non third world currency on the line to make it at least somewhat interesting for people you see more than once a year. Unless it's a huge overhyped match between two top players from different regions, no one gives a fuck unless theres money involved, and not just a measly 20.

That'd make way too much sense. This is Choco we're talking about...a guy who won't accept a MM unless its under his own condition (that example being mine) , but yet will call someone a little bitch because they want it FT5 instead of FT10(his own MM at EVO). This is also the guy that says MM>>>>tournament because you put more money down on a MM than you do tournament(Ignoring the fact that most tournaments cost $5-$10) . Well in that case I can lose every other major I go to, but MM that winner more than what the tournament itself cost or better yet his winnings (in a FT10 of course) and if I happen to win I'm better than that guy.
I really don't see what else is left to say. I won the tournament (like that matters lol) and Choco (who got 4th) won the MM so Choco>>>>>Brandino. Final Round XI: Where the losers win and the winners lose. Although I do find it funny that people who went to FRXI, who were knew I lost this MM, and who aren't part of the MB community thinks the MM was just that...a MM. To them...he just won $100. To them...I lost that $100, but won a lot more.
Now...moving on. I'll accept Hellmonkey's MM IF I happen to go to EVO, but I do wanna ask three questions: Question 1: Why do you even play this game? You make it very clear you don't like this game with the whole dissing Melty Blood/advertising Guilty Gear bullshit. You sound like a broken record with "Why play Mashy Blood? Guilty Gear is a much better game anyway." + "I play a game with real skill its called...Guilty Gear." Do you really wanna place 1st in a game that you hate so much? Sorry, but you're retarded. Question 2: Why do you (SpiritJuice) even go to these forums, go on #MBAC, and even go to WT's if all you do is fucking shit on this game AND the community 24/7? Hell you're fucking worse than Hellmonkey in the sense you don't even play the game and you call anyone that takes this game serious a otaku weeaboo faggot. (Looking at your avatar on SRK, DL, and MBread you're the last person to be calling ANYONE an otaku weeaboo faggot) And question 3: Hellmonkey, Are you gonna take BOTH GG AND MB like you FAILED to do at WTX and WTIX?
<sekusleep> but i'll practice up just for you
<sekusleep> and win wtxi
Don't dissapoint me...please. You're doing this for me remember?

Ok... before ANYONE says ANYTHING on the matter, I'ma just say WHAT'S DONE IS DONE! The weekend is over, there were winners and losers, all's well and good!
Seriously, arguing on the matter's not going to solve anything. I'ma just say it straight-up, if you guys (yes I'm talking to Brandino and Choco!) have some sort of personal issue, it doesn't involve the rest of us. Take that to PMs or just let it go.
Lastly... is it so hard to just ignore those who hate on the game? I ignore Chibi hating on AHF, no problem (no offense, Chibs <3).
-
Lastly... is it so hard to just ignore those who hate on the game?
Yeah, but you know if I was to do the same thing what Hellmonkey or SpiritJuice is doing on DustLoop or any GGXX IRC channel and do it as much as them I would get kick banned in a fucking heartbeat and its so obvious that ignoring it isn't helping at all...its only growing. I just want to know if they hate the game so much why do they even bother with it. Seriously, how often do you see someone go on a dedicated game forum, diss their own game AND their community, fucking advertise and trying to get people to play that game, and just have fun bragging on and on about not caring for the game at all...just enjoy beating people who play it.
<sekusleep> hey, it's not like i enjoy the game melty blood
<sekusleep> i just enjoy beating people in it
Seriously, wtf is up that shit?
-
The fact that they have to constantly tell us how much our game sucks actually makes it look good (in my eyes at least). If a game truly sucks, then there's no need to constantly remind the players that it sucks.
As for hellmonkey saying he hates the game but luvs beating people at it, it's one of 2 things:
1. He's in denial
2. He's just an arrogant bitch
If people are easily swayed by people like hellmonkey and spirit juice, then they shouldn't be playing the game. Keep in mind that the only argument they've ever come up with for hating on MB is 2A (or my favorite spirit juice comment of "only 3 buttons"... to this day, I still can't stop laughing at that!). Also, this whole "otaku" bullshit is just something GG players were once labeled as and are now passing onto MB... that's all.
-
Alright alright. This shit has gone on long enough. Apparently Brandino has a different outlook of the community than most of you. So you must hear him and me out before you call him out on these things.
This game needs hype. Real talk. If you were at NEC and FR, this is the type of exposure we need. As you all can see Brandino is trying his best to hype up this game (to some of you that's unnecessary) even though his may end up coming off as irrational and borderline douche. Check this out: Brandino is like an X-Factor to this community. He's being stepped on for just trying to hype up a game that he likes and not trying to fuck up MB from the inside out.
I will agree that this talk from FR has gotta stop. Brandino won the tournament ($280) and Choco won the MM ($100). You sons of bitches keep it like that. Judge on your own accord but dont come in the thread starting more shit about FR. Its ludicrous and down right childish. ITS OVER BITCHES GOT IT?? We can run shit back and re-up all we want I dont care, but stfu about who gets more props at FR. Both of these gentlemen did an excellent job and are guaranteed as 2 of the best in this country. Brandino = Choco unless proven otherwise at ANOTHER tournament OK??
In all sincerity, the game needs to be hype. All this random bickering needs to quit. If you can hear Brandino out on this, please give this nigga a chance. He's a decent guy irl and you all should at least try to hear him out as related to hype.
-
You'd better be ready to show me that $100 in cash before the match. I'm not playing any broke-ass fools who think they can win. :blah:
Free Money
Free Money
Free Money
Free Money
Free Money
Unless you've gotten better from NEC8, I KNOW I'm getting that $100 and if not win final round atleast make top 5. :blah:
And call me cocky/arrogant if you want, but all I'm trying to do is hype this shit up anyway I can. If I win I win. If I lose I'll man up and give your money. I'm not the type to talk big and flake out.
Now look at my second sentence: "And call me cocky/arrogant if you want, but all I'm trying to do is hype this shit up anyway I can." Now how some of you people get me as disrespectful...I have no idea. I even made that post BEFORE choco came up with condition I had to play on stick and what did I do...I man'd up, took up stick, lost, payed up. I don't see whats so disrespectful about that? You can also read more of my post BEFORE that and see if its trying to HYPE the game up or just being disrespectful. You be the judge.
Now I see this game having CRAPLOADS of hype potential and people who went to NEC AND FR can see the same thing. Now before I even made that MM with Choco I'll be honest...FRXI was fucking dead for Melty. The thread was dead, the hype was dead, no one was even caring about FRXI. Now when top 4 was being shown on the big screen I'll tell you how many people was watching...THE WHOLE FUCKING BALLROOM. Not just Melty people, EVERYONE from w/e community they were from: Marvel, GG, 3S, CvS2, SnK, Smash, hell even fucking Dark Prince was going goo-goo eye over Melty. Nigga looked like he couldn't take his eyes off of it. So we can't say Melty isn't getting any attention because thats bullshit. I really don't see why some of the people here just keep saying "Melty Sucks" "We don't need to hype our game up. Why should we? We're only a bunch of Otaku Weeaboo Faggots." No...thats not true. "No one cares about Melty?" To hell no one cares about Melty. If I didn't care about Melty I wouldn't even consider going to tournaments. Hell Melty was the ONLY 2-D fighter that got me into fighting games in general. So I really don't see why all this bullshit is going on over a MM...who's original purpose was to HYPE this game up. Not to disrespect anyone, but to hype it. If people are really afraid to hype this game up because of the whole "people who play it are weeaboos" then wtf am I really doing wasting my time trying to earn respect from you guys when you guys can't even respect your own game. Fuck that.
-
Brandino, I would love to see the thought process where a FT2 set is more significant than a FT10 set.
Do you honestly believe that if you ran that tournament set back against Choco and jiyuna 100 times, you would win more than 50 times? When you can convince everyone else of that, that is when you will get your respect. If you don't care about that... well, you do, otherwise you would not be putting up these walls of text.
Also, people are just fucking sick of you perpetually painting yourself as the victim. You're seriously doing it wrong here; Choco is a far bigger douchefag and yet he's getting far less crap. I would start by not getting trolled so hard by Hellmonkey. The fact that you are taking the bait so hard is almost sad. It's the Internet! Do you really think people are ever going to say anything positive about anything, ever?
And in regards to the point about FR hype, you have no idea what was originally surrounding the circumstances behind that tournament. If you know how the staff and the other players were treating the game, you would have been unhype as fuck too. The only reason that there even was a MB tournament at FRXI is what happened at NEC. (Which tangentially proves your point, heh.)
-
Shinobi/Choco: VIDS AND REPLAY PLZZZZ :prinny:
-
If you want to bring hype to the community, bet on a match in the tournament. Realistically speaking noone in this community outside of four people (Zar, Spooky, Arlieth, and perhaps Psylocke) should be bothering with money matches or trying to hype up shit with money matches. That entire MM was full of dropped BnB's, botched iad's, 2'as, and just overall sloppy play. If you didn't realize it, the only people actually watching the MM where the curious smash players, because you two decided to hold it in the same room their tournament was being run in. Like I said, noone knew the results until half an hour after it was finished.
You know what's real hype? EC vs WC. That's major growth potential there. Now we can actually do that. Hell, Zar vs Spooky. Arlieth vs Nerina. Where you know either side isn't going to be dropping shit, and where the level of play will be high. Lord if Spooky had shown up to FRXI this weekend you wouldn't believe the amount of rape he would have done. That shit would be welcome on the big screen as a showcase to people watching.
So stop worrying about the community. We're not going anywhere but up. You got your second win, Choco got his money, big shit. Just stop trying to push MM's like they're actually worth anything right now because they just aren't, not even close.
And who gives a shit about Sports Jews and Smellmonkey. Let them run their mouth like the rest of the folks who have been for the past half a decade, shit ain't new.
-
Choco, why not let Tare have FT5, since your the one who challenged Tare. Be a sport like Brandon did. I say the last line because of the stipulation you imposed on Brandon if he wanted to have a MM against you.
Seriously though, be a sport, sport. =)
That'd make way too much sense. This is Choco we're talking about...a guy who won't accept a MM unless its under his own condition (that example being mine) , but yet will call someone a little bitch because they want it FT5 instead of FT10(his own MM at EVO). This is also the guy that says MM>>>>tournament because you put more money down on a MM than you do tournament(Ignoring the fact that most tournaments cost $5-$10) . Well in that case I can lose every other major I go to, but MM that winner more than what the tournament itself cost or better yet his winnings (in a FT10 of course) and if I happen to win I'm better than that guy.
I really don't see what else is left to say. I won the tournament (like that matters lol) and Choco (who got 4th) won the MM so Choco>>>>>Brandino. Final Round XI: Where the losers win and the winners lose. Although I do find it funny that people who went to FRXI, who were knew I lost this MM, and who aren't part of the MB community thinks the MM was just that...a MM. To them...he just won $100. To them...I lost that $100, but won a lot more.
Now...moving on. I'll accept Hellmonkey's MM IF I happen to go to EVO, but I do wanna ask three questions: Question 1: Why do you even play this game? You make it very clear you don't like this game with the whole dissing Melty Blood/advertising Guilty Gear bullshit. You sound like a broken record with "Why play Mashy Blood? Guilty Gear is a much better game anyway." + "I play a game with real skill its called...Guilty Gear." Do you really wanna place 1st in a game that you hate so much? Sorry, but you're retarded. Question 2: Why do you (SpiritJuice) even go to these forums, go on #MBAC, and even go to WT's if all you do is fucking shit on this game AND the community 24/7? Hell you're fucking worse than Hellmonkey in the sense you don't even play the game and you call anyone that takes this game serious a otaku weeaboo faggot. (Looking at your avatar on SRK, DL, and MBread you're the last person to be calling ANYONE an otaku weeaboo faggot) And question 3: Hellmonkey, Are you gonna take BOTH GG AND MB like you FAILED to do at WTX and WTIX?
<sekusleep> but i'll practice up just for you
<sekusleep> and win wtxi
Don't dissapoint me...please. You're doing this for me remember?
Why do I do it? Because people like you are really easy to bait. ^______________^ MB is a fun game, no doubt, but taking it so seriously (or rather the level you take it) is kind of lol.
WHY SO SERIOUS?
-
Lastly... is it so hard to just ignore those who hate on the game?
Yeah, but you know if I was to do the same thing what Hellmonkey or SpiritJuice is doing on DustLoop or any GGXX IRC channel and do it as much as them I would get kick banned in a fucking heartbeat and its so obvious that ignoring it isn't helping at all...its only growing. I just want to know if they hate the game so much why do they even bother with it. Seriously, how often do you see someone go on a dedicated game forum, diss their own game AND their community, fucking advertise and trying to get people to play that game, and just have fun bragging on and on about not caring for the game at all...just enjoy beating people who play it.
<sekusleep> hey, it's not like i enjoy the game melty blood
<sekusleep> i just enjoy beating people in it
Seriously, wtf is up that shit?
I don't hate melty blood. I just think it's ridiculous to take the game seriously. I continue playing the game because it's fun (the same reason I don't play 3S or CvS2), but one thing that is really impossible to ignore is how low the level of play in MB is in the U.S. Apparently making this observation means that I hate the scene or hate the game- which isn't the case at all, overall the people in the MB scene are cool people- I just think that people really need to step their shit up and beat people like me who just learn the game and know hardly anything about it. Also, I wouldn't have started playing if GG had good online play, but since it doesn't, MB is the next best thing! :)
-
Chibi gives me wayyyyyy too much credit. It's pretty hard to drop j.C, j.C, j.C.
God, this has hit epic lulz level. Tell you guys what: PLEASE come to WTXII. I will finalize the date by next week which gives you guys at least 5-6 weeks to plan in advance. And let me know if Memorial Day weekend or the week before is better. Currently, Norcal is saying that MDW is bad because of Fanime that same weekend.
And I wanna MM Zaelar FT10 so he falls asleep during the match. :prinny:
-

lol. Just :blah: and :blah: lololol.
I'm issuing the money match with terms. If someone wants to CHALLENGE me, they may set their own terms and issue them to me for acceptance. But if I'm fucking challenging someone, I'm making the terms, and I'm not letting some fuck named Tare, who seems to want to defend your every move, try to change them. He doesn't have the clout or the charisma for me to consider accepting a FT5. Like being all hardass on IRC makes me want to change my terms, pfft. He's a little bitch because he's a little bitch. Bring up the entire chat log, and it was nothing but complaints. The MM was to shut his mouth, but instead of shutting it, it was all "FT5 FT5 FT5". Whatever.
No need to discuss the tournament vs. MM. You lost your cool and lost 6 in a row. A better player wouldn't have gotten to 5 wins and just cracked after a couple of losses. A better player will accept his loss (I didn't play as well as you in the tourney top 4, even though your hardware error should have lost you the round), get better, and rechallenge. There is nothing else to talk about on this subject.
-
jesus christ you guys what the entire fuck is going on
if it's going to cause this much god damn drama why are you even running money matches at all
(ps masterchibi the real hype is in EU VS US bring yo best guys here and we'll wreck em all k thx)

Whoawhoawhoawhoawhoa Choco you're overheating again and you're cussing more than a Scorsese flick. Cross the line again and I'll have to black-star you.
If this heats up any further I'm going to lock this thread for a day or three so this settles down. Consider this an official warning.
PS: Thanks for vids, Shinobi. :toot:

omg my last round against Choco i dropped like, 4 combos...
woooow...

sweeet, vids are up, thanks
and now to get vid in .flv format, oh boy

I know I should be following my own advice, but there's a line the two of you said that really offended me, so I chose to address it.
@ Spirit Juice:
no doubt, but taking it so seriously (or rather the level you take it) is kind of lol.
@ Hellmonkey:
I just think it's ridiculous to take the game seriously.
I went to FRXI for MB. I did pretty well in tournament, and I got hella casuals with people I had been talking to online for quite a while. I gained experience playing against characters I hadn't played against before. And I had plenty damn fun doing it too.
Is that wrongful act to both of you? My goal in this game is to become a top Hisui player. Yes, I'm serious. Is that ridiculous to you two?
I mean you're free to hate the game all you want, you can join the rest of the people in line who've been bashing it since it ever came into existance five years ago. And you can say whatever you want about the level of play as well (90% of WC sucks and 90% of EC sucks, big deal). But coming from GG players, who have had to put up through some pretty ignorant shit in the past (and I was there as part of the GG scene for quite a while), I wouldn't have expected such behavior.
But hell, I can't stop either of you from feeling or doing what you want, but it's still a disappointment really.
:\
-
I can't be angry all the time at something like you, Chibi? :(
-
Answer my questions please.
-
eh what happened to all the commentating
bah, there needs to be a rule where there needs to be original in-game soundtrack, i don't care abut character select, or before a match, or the victory sound track, but god 2 tournaments already with ignorant soundtrack. It'd be nice if i didn't have to turn off the volume and listen to something else on winamp.
unless theres a really nice soundtrack that the majority can agree on
-
i agree in full
the soundtracks were awful
-
I'd rather listen to the elevator music than some of these custom soundtracks. At least it's the original so it fits better.
-
This thread just shifted into a higher gear of failure.
-
I'm so used to that HNK soundtrack that the original just seems like it doesn't work very well.
-
Can we go back to using the original MB soundtrack. watching the video w/o commentary makes my ears bleed.
-
You people are fucking faggots.
I would rather die by being flayed by a group of death lolis than have to play MB with the original soundtrack. The original soundtrack is god awful. Then again, I would rather pierce my eardrums with a rusty flagpole than listen to a lot of these custom soundtracks, but it's still an improvement.
People know I'm serious about this too; when people were playing at NEC on my laptop the music was completely off.

From Arly: "If this heats up any further I'm going to lock this thread for a day or three so this settles down. Consider this an official warning."
-
If noone can decide on a custom soundtrack it makes common sense at the most basic level to either use the original or play with no sound at all. I reccomend the former since a game with no music won't generate much hype.

I definitely prefer MB's original soundtrack.
And how about this? whoever likes/doesn't like the music so much to complain on the forums about it, BRING YOUR OWN LAPTOP
-
I don't mind Dippy's mix because it doesn't cut into itself 20 seconds in, the songs just end up being longer then most matches tend to last, haha.
Every other mix is dick though.
Except for Meltyvania, but that music just doesn't fit in MB (or I've just heard it soooooooo much, being a fan and all).

choco- good shit in top5- and money dosen't sound too bad..!!!
brandino- i hope everything works out man... you should really stop sweating people who try to beat down the game...(except chibi and his constant AH BEATDOWNS!!! epic fail).. i really make this game blow up like GG did....im really hoping for the best... and if people say they can't take seriously.. then oh well.. just move on...

Are you sure about that. GG was written off as an SF clone. I mean did you play the original GG or just start at X and after. And if your other statement is true, then why-o-why do they keep playing it. I guess some people just love to hate. Even in a forum dedicated to the game they're hating on. :mystery:

if you want srs business though, this game certainly isnt it.
people take this game way way way too seriously. its not complex at all.

AWWWWWW YEAAAAAAH!
KEEP 'EM COMING!!!
[EDIT] I got 9 characters left... make it count!
-
And yet Ruu entered MB at Evo two years ago, and he came down for Showdown Championships too.
You're telling us not to take the game seriously but why should we take you seriously to begin with?
I had hoped that getting a forum for this game would help blossom a community and create more growth, but it's apparent that even outside of SRK people will love to hate it.

of course there is simplicties... but there are some advance shit you have to learn... that goes with every game... MB has the block pressure strings... bara cancels... meter usage ... and various other things...
the funny thing it's GG pros trolling which is like the funniest thing ever.. .cuse GG has been looked down upon for years.... and now it's looking good...well at least in america... if peeps want to take it serious then let em do it.... i don't think that stop the GG players either when they're game was frowned upon here... so that shouldn't stop the MB players...
chibi- it dosen't matter hate happens wherever you go sir!!! so just rep your set and you good sir!!!

So is Choco/Tare still happening? I think FT8 would be a good match set. Both players sorta get what they want-a shorter yet still long set.
So come on, let's do it! I'm sure we got takers here. Looking at Mailorder here. Remember to always bet on Choco!
-
well im already sidebet that 100 on choco... but nobody gonna run that..!
-
Im gonna bet 50 dollars on choco and see if anyone at sjsu will take my bet.

The Japanese players that I know who hated Melty Blood were only familiar with the original PC version of the game, before Re-Act. One of my friends from Saitama who plays with RX (famous Urien player) all the time was shocked to learn about Act Cadenza.
I love Melty, but I also know that it has some very severe limitations and issues, which I hope will be addressed in Actress Again. I really hope they get it just right within one or two more revisions. But that doesn't mean it's right to bash the game as it is- especially considering that it's come a very long way, and through several years of dedicated development.

yea I'm also gonna put up 50 on choco as well.
BTW let whoever wants to hate on this game hate. That doesn't stop me or you from playing this game. There are assholes everywhere and a lot of them talk :blah:.
-
Shit, I'd drop some money on Choco if it happens.
-
I want to put some on Choco... but at this rate, it seems no-one's gon put any on Tare!
-
One cheeseburger on choco, any takers?!
-
I put money on not doing the damn money match.
Christ. Do teams or something worthwhile.

Me. I'll do 100. That's my max. I'm no Marvel thug with hella west coast sponsors. I'll take your bet Nas since you were the first one to put up.
Anyone remember awhile ago when Act Cadenza came out and people were saying that it was only popular because it was a character game (one that people only liked and played because they had a favourite character)? The arguments and excuses I've heard from people not giving this game a chance are just as dumb as this comment. Most of us here know the game is great, Japan obviously knows it too, so that's good enough for me over random people who hate on the game for unsound reasons.

Well it is bullshit that the fanservice is a separate purchase.
