It really pains me due to my absence and not being able to log in from a computer to see how a lot of the "Planking" issue turned into such a big deal, but in the long run it showed to me the true colors of yourself Affinity. Allow me explain.
Please do.
Let me explain some of the planking methods you performed on me:
-While planking, if I came up to the ledge you'd Upair string me to shuttleloop me.
That's not planking. That's you
not being smart while I'm trying to get on the ledge. You have no idea what planking is.
-If I got you into a combo you'd literally RUN from me to the ledge and started to plank me to regain the momentum of the match.
No... Like I said earlier: If you hit me
above you, do you
REALLY think I'm going to fall down next to you, hit your shield, and have you up-smash me? REALLY??
The ledge is the only
real safe place to gain a neutral position from that point when I'm near the ledge. From that point, I did not plank
AT ALL. In fact, I
swear I was never on the ledge for more than 5-6 seconds, nor did grab the ledge more than 15 time.
I was doing attacks/jumping and waiting/making an opening for me to recover safely.
Think about it Zeton. Think about it for one ****ing second. How many times have you gotten kills off people because you watched for them to do something on the ledge then U-smashed, D-smashed, whatever? A LOT.
So, because I don't stupidly fall into your KO moves I'm planking?? Wow..
Like I said, you have no clue what planking. You're throwing the word around incorrectly and making people believe that I timed you out by staying on the ledge for a LONG time only doing U-airs, with no intent of getting back onstage. As I said earlier, the only time I was ever on the ledge was to escape a bad situation (above you), and I tried to get back onstage safely.
That is not planking in any
way, shape, or form. It's called playing
smart.
-You flat out stalled against me on that ledge and did not approach me until the transformation of Pictochat benefited in your advantage over me, ( examples would be the missile attack and chomp flower at the center of the stage.
I never thought I'd say this to you, but you're flat out lying right now.
Do you not remember how you got hit by both those missle??
I THREW YOU INTO THEM.
The exact same with the plant, except I couldn't due to you DI'ing well.
I remember hearing people laugh behind us as this happened, so I know they know this is true.
I'll let the people here be the judge of if that's planking or not.
What you say happened, and what you believe happened for some reason: Yes.
What actually ****ing happened:
NO.
I honestly really couldn't believe you'd do such a thing in a 10 man in crew tournament and for a $30 pot, but hey you play to win the game.
Playing smart and Not jumping into the ****=/=Planking
At the time the ledge grab limit and stalling rule was not fully enforced, and it's my fault I didn't play as serious as you did and not approach you when I had the lead. I learned my mistake, that won't happen again, I promise you.
Honestly Zeton, this is the biggest load of bull**** I've ever heard you say.
You're telling me you didn't get Domo to come watch the match because it wasn't
fully enforced?? Common sense says otherwise.
I ****ing guarantee you that if I had actually planked you, you (or someone watching) would have told Domo.
Also, why did you wait until AFTER I LEFT to say anything? Why not call me out there
if I did plank you? Doesn't make sense, does it?
Lastly,
who else, other than you, saw me "PLANK" you?? Anybody else?
If I planked you, I'm sure someone else other than you would've noticed.
The only person I heard that said he saw me "plank" you was Degyn,
who I later found out had no idea what planking was, and realized that I DIDN'T ****ING PLANK YOU.
Put the facts together Zeton. None of what you're saying makes any sense at all
whatsoever. I don't see how you can make up things in your head and somehow believe they're real.
After the tournament a lot of people ask me how you beat me. I just said the truth and told what happened.
Not from what I heard.
Next day, I was harassed from you about what YOU did. Making it seem like you never would do such a thing. here are some of your exact text message you sent me.
Calling you once and texting you twice over the span of a whole day is harrassing?
hmmm...
"Why is domo saying I planked you?"
Because he and 5 other witnesses saw you do it. And you know you did. I really didn't think I needed to respond to you. But in the long run it leads to the reason why I'm not going to speak to you until you apologize to me.
REALLY? Domo never said anything about it during the match, and then was later told about it, what's up with you saying that he actually WITNESSED the situation? Also, why did no one bring it up while I was there?
Like I said earlier, who else saw me "plank" you?? Your statement means nothing until people who actually saw us play witnessed me "planking" come forward.
WTFLOL. You're the one that needs to apologize to ME. You're the one that's making up bull**** and slandering my name.
Rewinding a bit, after the tournament some of the crew members wanted to figure out why you planked and from my sources it turned out...it was to get back at me? Due to friendlies? Seriously? Just because in teams matches I was beating you with your own character through all the chaos of the matches, you wanted to get back at me? That was like a slap in the face what you did to me in tournament, it said
What?
What??
WHAT????????????????
WHAT THE **** ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT??
Now you're just creating things in your own mind and trying to bring them up as truth.
They're friendlies. Why would I give a **** how things go in friendlies?? Do you really think I care AT ALL??
You're making no sense whatsoever. It's pretty ridiculous and hilarious at the same time.
Also, you've never even come close to beating me with MK, even when I'm not trying. So this makes even less sense, if that's possible.
"Your Fox, I'm MK. I'm always going to be better." (**** that.) A REAL friend would not place his other friends lower than them, but to look at them as their equals. That was really messed up what you did and how you did it.
What.
The.
****.
Are.
You.
Talking.
About.
OMG.
Now fast forwarding, After I didn't respond to your first text, your next text was this a few hours later.
"Thanks for trying to tarnish my rep with false accusations after I've helped you and hyper you for so long. Appreciate it."
Wow...after reading that text it told me all I really needed to know about you and what your intentions are with me.
You're making things up, stretching the truth, and slandering me Zeton, and its wrong. I never thought someone like you would have the heart to do such a thing.
The only intention I've ever had with you is to help you.
Why do you think I've helped you and hyped you up for so long?? Because I was being a friend. Plain and simple.
I guess I now see how quickly some people will stab others in the back. Pretty sad man.
Your a liar Affinity. Someone who will lie and steal from other people's success just to benefit yourself.
Wow. Really...
I'm beyond insulted by this. After everything I've done for you, this is what I get.
When have I
ever done this. When??
Honestly Zeton, I don't know if you're purposely trying to slander my name, or if you have some kind of problem that causes you to mix what you believe happened with what actually happened. All I know is that I know exactly what happened.
Pantheon watched the
entire set between us. He
knows the truth about what happened and he
knows I didn't plank you.
I'm not entirely mad at you planking me entirely, I'm mad at you hurting me as a friend. But right now I'm too pissed off to even talk to you atm. But I will say a few things on here though.
I still have no clue how I hurt you as a friend or how I "planked" you.
Don't you EVER hold MY hard work and hardships against me like blackmail! I got here by myself and I never asked you to "HYPE" me. You did that all on your own accord. And for you to try to me feel bad for your OWN selfish actions pisses me off so much, I NEVER lie. I would not be as strong player as I am today from making excuses of my losses, I know why I lost, and I'm going to fix that up for next time. I learn from my mistakes. Maybe that's your problem.
1) I hyped you up because I believed you were underrated and I wanted you to be more known. That's all.
2) I'm not trying to make you feel bad. Jesus ****ing Christ. I'm only telling you what actually happened, how others, like Pantheon, saw it.
I believe he sent you a text concerning this.
And honestly, I feel terrible. I busted my butt, worked super hard, and fought legit and boldly only to lose to someone who abuses the game system and not practice as hard as I do. Let alone, in my eyes now and in a lot of people's eyes, is a coward.
I didn't abuse the games system at all. I've already explained this multiple times. I still don't see how going from a bad position to a neutral position (the ledge), trying to get back on stage as quickly and safely as I could is considered planking.
Honestly, I'm really surprised that you're offended by this, considering I haven't changed my playstyle at all since I came back from Florida. I do what you consider "planking" in every team or singles match I play.
If I'm a coward for not stupidly letting you combo/KO me, then so be it.
So Affinity, I've said my piece and don't feel like I have to say anything, or set things straight with you, everything is pretty straight forward, except yourself apparently.
Zeton, I'm being straighter than a ****ing ruler right now. This seriously makes no sense at all.
BTW, You pull that crap on me in tournament again, I'll even the odds and see how well you fair. Meaning going from a 70-30 fox vs mk matchup to a 50-50 mk ditto. So you better work hard as hard as I am for the meet next up. I'm not afraid to face you again and show people what kind of players we both are.
I never planked you. *See rest of post above*
If you want to play MK against me, fine. Just makes things easier on me.
I'm not going to stop what you call "planking" anytime soon. That's when people when know the truth behind what all you're saying.
(Side note) EVERYONE should pick up MK, eventually MKs will get tired of fighting each other and pick another characters, and I'd love to see where those top mk mains will stand if they chose a different main. It would really show who the stronger players are.
I've beaten you with secondaries before, Zeton. I also love MK ditto.
In conclusion, Zeton, I never planked you. You're heavily exaggerating. Going from the air (bad position) to the ledge (neutral position), then trying to get back on by either attacking or simply jumping on is not planking in any way.
How did I "plank" you if:
1) The timer wasn't even
close to timing out. There's were still 3-4 minutes left in the game.
2) I killed you with an U-TILT when you had a a lot more damage than me? Is that planking? If it is, that's news to me.
3) I know for a **** fact I didn't grab the ledge more than 15 times. Not planking at all.
I've never planked you before EVER. Why would I decide to plank you now, of all the times we've ever played?
In the end, Zeton, I honestly don't see how it's possible for you to believe something that didn't happen happened. I simply don't understand how your brain works. If you look back, you have the history of not making sense most of the time about things, not me.
There are way too many holes in what you're saying Zeton. Anyone with half a brain can analyze all the facts and see what really happened.
Next time we all get together, I will GL
ADLY show exactly how I played against you and what I used to beat you.
When I demonstrate what I did to you, and you call it planking, EVERYONE will see the light as to what really happened.
I can't wait for this. Not to embarrass you at all, but to clear my name.
In the end, I have nothing against you Zeton. I know you're a good person at heart. This whole thing is really just crazy to me, and you're honestly the last person in the world that I could ever see doing this to me. It hurts a lot.
People here that really know me know that I would never lie if I did something like this. If I actually did plank you, I would come onto the boards and admit it. You and I both know that.
TR;DR version
-You're mistaking playing safe for planking.
-What your saying is not true and it makes no sense at all. There are way too many holes in your story. No one else but you has accused me of this. It would help if you could name these 5 people and have them say something.
-I have no idea why you're doing this to me. I can't really think of a motive you would have.
-
To end this, once and for all, we need to both get on a Wii so I can show exactly what I did during our match. I swear on my family's soul that I will do exactly what I did during our set. If what I did was actually planking, I want you to point it out to me for everyone to see.
That's all I have to say. This is honestly all really ridiculous, and I really want the next smashfest to happen soon so everything can get cleared up. All this he-said-he-said **** is going nowhere.
That's all I have to say.
See you at the next smashfest
-Steven
