Sp00ky: That's the thing though- TGA needs the business to eventually be able to move to a better location, as well as having a shiny track record for business history so that cities will approve their game center permits. If they do eventually make it to NY, it'd be the best thing ever for the EC arcade scene.
<bellreisa> arly *has* given up 3s

Ew @ those comments D:

Too bad this thing happens during April ;-; One of the worst times to go

<Graven> When you are Ciel, don't try to win, don't even try to do anything. The more you do, the stupider and bigger faggot you become because you're using Ciel.
<WyvernLord> roku is faking his disappearance so melty bread can come out and try to convince him of his value to the community

It's not worth it. Me and Zar know whats really up. It's more enjoyable to let them keep their false sense of hope.
When TGA isn't located someplace in the asshole of America that requires public transportation + driving to get to then you won't see junk like this or their 3s tourneys happen.

Damn it.

Well then it's me and Xaq I guess.

Crushing egos are great!!!!

Xaq just get someone to vouch for you and there ya go... MM made... money made...

i have friend kinda of like that... he's freaking good but need some money to do some money... so i vouch for throw up some money in his place... so that's what peeps need to do... well that's how i did it in tekken anyway.. should be the same...

and Smash players ALWAYS THINK THEY'RE the HOTNESS... but knowing if they played any other fighting games other than smash.. it's pretty much game over!!

some go represent the MB players!!!
Basically... kind of a big deal....

H-F Blade Hate > Zar Hate, Chibi Hate and Dippy Hate (for himself) COMBINED!!  :o

They really pushed you over the top, huh?
zar are you even aware that your attitude is what drove people off in the first place. i think zar's attitude is worse than all of that. cause neither of you guys mean anything. but zar can poison shit around him. zar's the one that gets personal online and does realtalk that's out of line.

I love crushing egos too, but I'm not hating. -_- I'm just very upset about how they had such an easy climb to the top of the charts and, as a result, how it will give a lot of people a skewed sense of reality. But also, maybe I just have a little too much pride that I would never let a competitive Smash player defeat me at one of my own games, which would uphold my little theory I have about them.

Ironically, after talking to some Smash players (thanks to that Wobbling thread) it seems more and more of them are coming onto this game. I asked around as to why, but noone was able to give me much of an answer, it's just ending up that way.

Lord knows if I can get XAQ to shell out $100 just to go to this.

It's probably because they're bandwaggoning with 1st grader logic: [dumbjockvoice] Oh duhhrr, KDJ, someone who has almost no experience in other fighting games, is dominating at MBAC. Maybe we can too. duhhrr [/dumbjockvoice] KDJ's ranking could also incite just the opposite but the latter seems more predominant.

I'm surprised that's not happening over here in Cali considering that the Smash scene here is pretty big which could possibly lead to a higher likelihood of assimilation. But that's not happening afaik and I guess that's a relief. Our scene is fine without them imho.

its because of people like you who scared away all the smash players from having big egos so we can take their money for free! ... :blah:

 :V

or maybe people here don't have that big of an ego to begin with  :V

See, this I don't get.

I don't really care if they come from playing Smash Brothers, Virtua Fighter, Tetris, or just picked up the game because they like Akiha's delicious flat chest. Whoever is better is better, regardless of their background.

It seems like you have a problem with some combination of their God-given talent and the inherent weakness in the scene.

Well, part of it is that H-F Blade would have an inherent advantage because of his knowledge of the game engine and its quirks. Overheads that hit in 10 frames or less in MB would be very difficult for 3s players to adapt to. As for Smash, there's so much about the engine that doesn't carry over that I can understand H-F Blade's reasoning.

On the other hand, I say bring 'em. More money in the tourney pot.

in all honesty, i'd be kinda pissed if a smash player beat me at mbac especially since it's one of the few games that i've dedicated a lot of time to. the people from their scene that i've met just pissed me off to no end. "Smash is the greatest fighting game ever. And it merely happened on accident." "If it's not Smash, it's not a fighting game." "I don't like lifebar fighting games because they're over too quick." you know what that is? Bullshit. redundant, annoying, factless BULLSHIT!

Is smash really even a fighting game?

IF smash is a fighting game then games like Armored Core should also be a fighter >.>

But seriosuly why let them get away with calling that crap a fighting game?

The guy who introduced me to MBAC was one of america's top Armored Core players, lolz

As for H-F Blade's attitude, I kind of shared it, at least for a while. I mostly train with Heartnana from SRK. He is a 3d guy and since comming to japan his main game has been Arcana, but back in the states it was Naruto 4 on the GC. It took me a long time to swallow the fact that he was just a flat out better player than me at fighting games, seeing as I only started back in fall semester. For a while I was really pissed about how I couldn't beat him consistantly at "My Game" but now I just say w/e and realise that it's free melty with a cool dude and we're both getting better. it's pretty lol tastic when we go to the arcades and beat every one off the machines, and then the other doesn't want to pay for the match we've played like a million times for free in his dorm room  :D

I think he was referring to the 1st time KDJ did it. But as for the last one, the participants were all new to the game for the most part. Still hardly anything to brag about. :\
