ACL Videos

[Blackshadow]

Has anyone uploaded the vids from ACL? I've been camping Youtube for like a month now :/

 

[asianaussie]

james is a lazy **** and i don't even know if they were recorded properly

they haven't yet been uploaded even if they were recorded somehow

so people know **** is a legitimate insult in aussiespeak and not my attempt to bypass the censor

Is it pronounced the same as c***?

 

[ciaza]

Yes. Origins: Having an intellectual discussion with James and Dean, about how if c*** is spelled with a k it's a positive name (what a sik****!). With a c, it is bad. Then I asked what if it was spelled with a q? We agreed it was only slightly derogatory.

That's nice, except that it's not you who gets to decide what's okay and what's not. Changing one letter of an insult is still an insult and is dodging the censor. Don't do it. ~Mic

And sorry Black, James hasn't uploaded them yet. FYI: We lost 3/4 of them thanks to me bumping the laptop =(. Those were all the good ones too as the rest were of us mucking around.

 

[asianaussie]

A$ is about to infract me because he believes **** isn't actually aussiespeak.

I mourn this day.

 

[DMoogle]

I'll take your word for guys' word for it, but I would prefer it if you didn't use the term on these forums, given it seems to be derived from and have a close connection with that other word. Or, if you would prefer, I can bring it up in the Staff forum. Either way, this is Social thread discussion.

On topic: What exactly is ACL?

 

[asianaussie]

Australian Cyber League, the first Aus major where 64 was successfully run and showcased. We had like 30 entrants but it died down and we ended up holding a smaller interest-only tourney, since we couldn't compete with melee, brawl and every other game that was there (ssf4, mvc3, halo, cod, friggin fifa >_>)

I left early hur hur.

 

[ciaza]

Damn, now I can't say words that dodge the censor
Most importantly ACL was where 90% of Desiree's server denizens met each other in real life. (lolol aa has glasses). It was really cool since everyone is so friendly.

 

[Blackshadow]

So all the tournament matches are gone?

Also we all discovered that ciaza is in fact pronounced see-AH-za and is now canon I don't care what anyone says ITS NOT KIZZA

 

[ciaza]

No, I think we got the tournament matches but lost the ones earlier in the night. If I see James I'll ask him to upload yours.

Everyone is a jerk but me, ciaza (kih-zah).

 

[Battlecow]

is that like Kee-zah or kee-zuh or kiz-zuh or kiz-zah

I always said Chee-ah-zah

 

[ballin4life]

see ah zuh all the way

 

[ciaza]

is that like Kee-zah or kee-zuh or kiz-zuh or kiz-zah

I always said Chee-ah-zah

Bolded one.

see ah zuh all the way

But I get this one the most.

Most people can't pronounce my real name (Ciarán (keer-ran)) either =/

 

[ballin4life]

Why is there a silent "a" after the i? Why is it a "c" instead of a "k" (since c-vowel usually indicates soft c)? MADNESS I TELL YOU! But not as bad as "chee ah zah" ... he's australian not italian haha

Anyway, what nationality/language is the origin of your name? Just curious.


And is it time to debate the pronunciation of "Alancitu"?

 

[ciaza]

It's Irish, and the Gaelic alphabet doesn't have a K so you have to use a hard c. Dunno about the silent a :3.

I've always said Alan-see-2. Then again I've also always said Isai (is-eye).

 

[Sangoku]

I've always said Alan-see-2. Then again I've also always said Isai (is-eye).

Same for me. Except I've always said See-ah-zah too lol.

 

[SSBPete]

I've always said Alan-see-2 aswell and for Isai, I've always said Ice-ay-a

 

[asianaussie]

i found out ciaza's real name is mcenroe

he hates this fsr

 

[ciaza]

Mainly **** puck you.

 

[Battlecow]

I said Iss-eye for like a year until I watched melee vids with commentary and they kept saying "Eye-zay-uh" which I am now all glommed on to. Alan-see-too ftw.

 

[Robsta]

@ ciaza:

Your name is dumb.
Your alias is dumb.
Your face is dumb.
And your brain is dumb.

But I still love you...

Also did we record the games of me facerolling that scrub asianaussie?

 

[The Star King]

Am I the only one who pronounces it "Alan-kih-too"?

 

[Battlecow]

Yeah. Everyone knows that the "c" is soft when it's followed by an "i"

Am I the only one who says "bat-lee-co-wuh"?

 

[Dsc]

Alan-chee-tu
Eyes eye
Ko-robe-ah-neekee
See aza
Ollie-kus
Nix-awn

 

[Sangoku]

ballin四life.

 

[Battlecow]

Lol @ DSC's horribad pronunciations.

My new list:

Core-oh-ben-ick-ee
Kizzuh
Eyes-ay-uh
oh-lick-us (lolz)
Nix-un
dee ess cee
Thee Stair kin guh

 

[Dsc]

MULVAY

 

[The Star King]

Core-oh-ben-ick-ee

My Russian knowledge says it's Ka-ro-bane-ee-kee.

 

[ciaza]

Who the hell call Dsc dee-ess-see? Clearly it's meant to be pronounced: 'disc', as in "that floppy disc".

I pronounce how Battlecow pronounces.

Spoiler

I like off-topic discussions

 

[Robsta]

Everytime I talk to Americans on a VoIP client (ventrilo, etc.) they pronnoice my alias as Ro-busta
I see you Americans realize how robust I am 8)

 

[Dsc]

shut the hell up robert gee cutting

 

[Mic_128]

Unless videos are uploaded in the next day or so I'll close this and you can make a thread when/if you get the videos uploaded.

 

[The Star King]

Lol @ all the Mic edits in this thread.

 

[cheeseball341]

Stopping an australian from saying ****, ****, ****, sik****, ****s****ed, etc is like taking a fish out of water.

I am outraged.

 

[ciaza]

2 infractions from Mic =D. Clearly our traditional aussie speak did not impress. I wish my "puck you" got edited though, it would of been a great opportunity to link to the appropriate Summer Heights High clip.

 

[asianaussie]

its alright

videos for this won't happen, except for that awful video which doesn't even qualify as bloopers (thanks anyway james)

wait till the next sydney major or something

 

[ciaza]

I still say we should be going to that Adelaide major, despite the unnatural number of ugly girls there. Seriously no offense to them but by God.

Spoiler

posting in a closed thread.

 

[asianaussie]

Not going. Dumb time placement, too much brawl (and not even good brawl from what I hear) and zero 64 presence, except for sorta blackshadow and maybe maybe grim tuesday

Spoiler

toasting some burnt bread

 

[DMoogle]

Unless videos are uploaded in the next day or so I'll close this and you can make a thread when/if you get the videos uploaded.

I'm going to just jump the gun and close this now, this thread obviously doesn't seem to be going anywhere.

If someone wants to post the ACL videos, PM me and I'll re-open it. Although it might just be a better idea to start a new thread...
