    I'm kind of disapointed with myself today, though; because today was my last acting class at this one place (I think he starts another class again in like 6 months, though, but anyways...) and there was this really nice and pretty girl there that I liked and was going to try and make some sort of move, but her parents and sister were there at the time, and I cowarded (is that a word lol?) out and don't know if I'll ever see her again :(

    I need to stop making everything I post so friggin' long and ramble less lol
    T
    According to Havok, I haz potentials: "(on my AiB page... stupid no BB code thing in VMs...) Hey, no problem man! You're 15?? Keep playing, I think you have potential." I love it when top players give me advice and encouragement and stuff :D

    Oh and I forgot to tell you one of the funnier moments in the tourney. Richbrown and I were playing Snake dittos (Snakeo's?) friendlies, and at one point I Dthrow tech chased him, then read his roll behind me and Fsmashed him, and then he called me a **** :p

    I also played this cool Bowser player from Texas (Zigsta) and played some Luigi vs Bowser matches (he ****ed up my Luigi a lot at first, but it got pretty even later on).

    Really fun tourney.
    T
    And I beat Leepuff's G&W (he's really smart) in a friendly by playing hella gay (I think he was probably sandbagging a bit. Or atleast on auto-pilot a bit too much). Then he went Wolf (lol?) and ****ed me up. I need to learn how to fight Wolf.

    Later in the day I got to play a bunch of friendlies with Havok and got some really useful advice from him, and beat Larry's MK in a friendly (immediately after Larry beat Havok in the MK ditto O_o).

    I feel like, even though I don't get to go to tourneys as often as I'd like, I'm really improving.

    1000 character limit is annoying...
    T
    I hadn't noticed until after I'd inputted an Fsmash, and right as it hit, I looked over and saw he was confused, and his controller was unplugged...

    I felt so bad...

    But I beat a Lucario!!

    Lost a really, really, really, really close MK ditto to a Bakersfield MK. Lost the second match, and maybe the set (I beat him in a few MK ditto friendlies later in the day), due to messing up an input. Would've gotten a kill move and won that match, but accidently inputted a running pivot, and got Dsmashed :(

    And I've started playing ZSS as a new secondary and won some friendlies against some people (who weren't very good lol).
    T
    (even if they only did like 2-4% lol).
    So I won the second match, ban Pictochat (I noticed Pitbull always seems to CP Picto) and got taken to Castle Seige. So I did pretty much the same thing again.

    We were both at last stock when I realized "whooooa there's only 40 seconds on the clock" and I had a slight lead, so I started to run away and stuff, but he got the lead with 5-7 seconds left (he was at 100%, I was at 102%), and then I landed a nado hit for 2% and tied it up, and the match timed out O_o

    Didn't know draws ACTUALLY happened and had to ask RichBrown about what to do when time goes out and we're both at the same percentage. So we go back to Castle Seige and do a 1 stock match. He had gotten really annoyed and pissed off at this point, and I was pretty much in control of the match. He was at like 120% and I was at like 40%. I hit him with a nado, and he cursed and yelled and stomped his feet, or something, and accidently knocked his controller out of the Wii O_o
    T
    The tourney was really fun.

    I played pretty well today. Wasn't mad after all of my matches feeling like I choked, which is good lol

    Played typh in the first set. Really close matches after I'd beaten him in a friendly earlier in the day. I fell for a lot of stupid **** in those matches lol. I figure, though, that if I get more experience against PT, I'll be able to do well

    Had the craziest set with Pitbull. I was originally pissed off because I had to fight Lucario... AGAIN (and it's my personal worst matchup by a long shot). So we have the first match on SV. I lose, but pretty close. Last hit.

    I decide I don't feel like screwing around with RC or Brinstar or something stupid like that, so I just go back to SV. And changed up my style. Pretty much mostly all I did was DAir camp > nado, and punish with like NAir or grab or something.

    So after 6-7 minutes of spamming nado, Pitbull started getting mad, and grunting loud curse words every time I hit with a nado

    I didn't even know you could double laser above the platform.. that's ********.
    Ally should main Wario.. he's amazing.
    T
    I liked tire > UAir > tire > UAir for a crapload of damage.

    And I liked 1:48 of the one that Ally won. Bike broke and he stood in front of the ledge while the tire bounced right past the ledge, and reduced M2Ks options to nothing but air dodge, and then he gets a grab out of the AD.

    And 2:46 of that same video.

    Or 3:58 of the one he lost where he did tire > waft.

    Ally is amazing.

    Oh and the last combo here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BMj4P4UIuk&feature=player_embedded#!

    O_o wtf is this, SSB64?!
    T
    Kinda. Like I saw it and wasn't paying attention to it, but right after it left the screen I was thinking "wait wtf was that that was moving across the screen", keep watching, then see it was a dancing bear lol.
    T
    Huh

    So I played my mom in Rock Paper Scissors, and picked rock assuming she'd pick scissors (every girl but one I've ever played starts with scissors lol. I played like 4 today, all of which started with scissors...), but she picked paper which surprised me but then I realized something. The only girl I'd ever played in RPS that didn't start with scissors, but started with paper, was Dylan's mom...

    Seems like most girls pick scissors, while mom's pick paper lol.

    RPS metagame: Super Serious Business

    Oh and: http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=275586 Sounds pretty cool. We should get side tourneys here in SoCal :P

    Also watch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1GEEvvTiiQk
    T
    I'm going to next time I get the chance, for sure.

    Oh and on ZU I put pictures of scantily clad women in my sig and avy... and then they got removed even though they didn't break any rules...

    MK has the best ZAir by the way.
    "(Kitamerby said this in the MK discussion thread) In that case, MK has a better Zair than Samus because his airdodge has an extra frame of invincibility and when the airdodge is over he's still Meta Knight."
    I lol'd.
    EDIT: Can't use BB code... what the hell
    T
    From Cyanide and Happiness:
    "What is your name again?"
    "Caren"
    "Is that with a 'C' or a 'K'"
    "'C'"
    "Good. 'C's are easier to carve into my arm"

    I'm SO DOING THAT.
    T
    At a doctor's office, and the poster says "An apple a day... means medical staff and equipment cut backs. Try a burger"

    lmao and that's just the background
    T
    OH I GOT IT.

    I'm gonna get all big and strong and muscular and sexy and stuff. But I'm gonna do it by lifting weights... while surfing the web!!

    And a bonus to being all big and strong and stuff: If I ever get into a fight, my fight plan won't HAVE to be to distract them with my skinny arms, kick 'em in the groin, then run like DMG.

    I got this.
    T
    Hey, hey, hey! I thought of a way to put these things to use!

    Okay, okay, okay, here's my new pickup line!

    *walk up to random, pretty girl*
    "ay yo lets play RPS"
    *proceed to win at RPS because she'll probably throw scissors*
    *then insert sexual comment about me being inside her head, and some offer of some sort that I could come up with easily that fits with the previous sexual comment*

    ITLL WORK RITE!?
    :p

    I wish I could get $50,000 from playing RPS... I need to do something more productive with my wasted time...
    T
    Trying to be random won't work; because humans aren't good at just being random. It might work for a little while, but it can be very easy to fall into habits while trying to play random. Like, for instance, Dylan's mom. She was clearly playing "randomly" (she even mentioned something about not remembering what to do, or something like that. I doubt she was thinking everything through). And then look at some of the habits that develops (after every scissors she would throw paper (or was it the other way around lol?))

    And at RPS tournaments (no joke, there are RPS tournaments where people win money), say there's a 64 man bracket. You have a 1 in 64 chance of winning the money if you play randomly (which humans are bad at... We're not computers we can't play optimally lol).

    TL;DR
    No, playing randomly doesn't work.
    T
    Naw I used all of those fails to condition you harder than you realized, I think. For like 20 matches, after every rock, I'd throw a second rock, and then when you realized it you got in the habit of using paper after you see a rock, and I'd use that to get way more wins than I think you noticed later in the day.
    T
    I have another idea. What if we went to tourneys together with a book, and during each others tourney matches, the one who's not playing would write down habits he sees, while the one who is playing could also whisper habits he sees to the writer, and in between CPs the player could read the book, so they know what they might want to ban, etc.

    We could coach each other like that!

    We could have like a single page dedicated to each SoCal smasher, so that we could be prepared for everyone! Like, for example, I remember FlameWaveK likes to air dodge a lot, so if you're playing Luigi against him it's likely he'll air dodge into the hyphen up smash after the Dthrow.

    Writing down stuff like that.

    I'm starting to do this now (I'm currently writing a very detailed account of the M2K vs RichBrown match at TP5 of exactly what moves happened when, and then study that and learn his habits and such).
    T
    Oh **** it earlier I posted on my profile instead of yours lol...

    But after looking at Ksizzle's location (Ksizzle's location on his profile says "Writing books on your habits") I came up with an idea.

    What if I ACTUALLY brought a book with me, and while watching matches at home or at tournaments I would physically write down their habits in my book! And like in between tournament matches, I'd write down the habits I noticed my opponent was doing, so I could capitilize on them during their CP, or if it's my CP I could go somewhere where I could heavily capitilize on their habits!

    What do ya think about that idea lol?
    T
    I heard from Vato and Flamewavek that there were only like 8 setups :(

    SoCal needs to step it up with the setups.

    I remember at TP4 there were around 20 or so lol.

    That's a tough pool. Leepuff, Junk, and Vicegrip? How were those D3 dittos with Junk lol?
    T
    D3 is so annoying to fight as MK. Like I mean if I play really gay and actually think, I know I can do it.

    It's just annoying to make one mistake that's not even near D3 and then take like 16 damage from a single grab lol.

    Oh and I think I may have discovered a true combo with Lucario. I've checked the frame data and used the debug menu code, so I know it's a true combo (unless you have inhuman SDI skill), and I've never seen it used before or even mentioned.

    So if I really am the first to find it (it's situational as hell, lol. But it's an option nonetheless), does that mean I get rights to name it "the table combo"?
    T
    Good luck at TP5 :)

    Oh and I have a question...

    With your D3 and Luigi... what are ya gonna do about fighting MK, who is, y'know, the most common character in the game lol?
    T
    Why would I be playing Marth lmao?

    **** that I'm going Ice Climbers (if I can stop being so freaken inconsistent with my CGs...)
    T
    Yeah that's a pretty good way to try and get a kill.

    Now I know if I ever play you as Marth, I won't bother UpB'ing you lol.

    Oh and Zedd... I think I met him at TP4 lol. I watched him play a few random items friendlies at TP4 IIRC. But then he left and I took his slot :p
    T
    If the Marth expects it, though, I bet he can FAir into the ground (remember, FAir has like no landing lag) so that he doesn't get the upB lag. I'm no positive, though; because I'm not sure if you're immediatly on the ground after the Dthrow, or whether you're in the air a tiny bit.

    If it's the latter, then it's probably not guaranteed, but if it's the former... that's freaken awesome!
    T
    I guess I could ask that, but Idk...

    Nice. You should also start reading their matchup thread (if you haven't already started). So you, like, feel comfortable with DDD? That's great that you've found a top tier that you like :p
    T
    It's ridiculously illogical, and it pisses me the **** off.

    I'm really mad right now, if you couldn't tell lol....

    Good luck at TP5, though. GC Guy is an amazing TO. TP4 was probably the best tourney experience I've ever had.

    PS. 1000 character limit is stupid.
    T
    Actually I found out today that my mom won't let me go because that same day is this stupid ****ing thing that my mom says we have to go to "as a family" (some conference about atheism... like I don't see enough theism bashing over the internet anyways, amirite?)

    So I won't be able to go...

    And you know what's even stupider? My dad says it's fine for me to stay home and not go, but I'm not allowed to get a ride with them to a tournament that is right near there.

    And I can't go Sunday because it's mother's day... That'll definitely make me glad that she's my mom, that she's irrationally not allowing me to go to something I've been talking about for atleast 3 months now the day before mother's day (I'm honestly fine with just going on Saturday, since that's Brawl day, but they aren't even willing to give me a ride to the tourney on Saturday even though it's on the way to this stupid *** convention OR even let me ride with someone else)
