Your point? Who cares if you are good or not.. you are missing the magic involved in tournaments. There is no such thing as "standards", there is only infinite potential. Also, the heart to go forward no matter what happens.. faith or no faith. The mind is tricky.. however the heart never lies!

Oh.. and if you are disappointed by expectations of someone.. well it's safe to say no one cares other than you.. which means you'll look like an *******.

Your heart will only lead you to bias, only your intellect can lead you where you need to go.

There is no infinite potential, for you will always be limited by what the game allows you to do and not , its just the way it is. The mind is not that tricky, otherwise people would not be able to mindread other players as well.

I guess I just ain't as optimist as you are.

Furthermore, if nobody cares but me, doesn't change the fact that people who are in competitive communities should understand that there are always going to be people that are going to be above the "good" standard other people usually have. There is such thing as a standard, and you are always the one that sets it. For example, in brawl, whenever someone gets up air-ed by MK, I expect the person to get at least 2 in before the other guy pops out. Some people like Mr doom however, can SDI very far and break that mold. Does that mean there should be no standard? Nope, it just means on average its better statistically to assume some things as the "standard", it allows us not to have to analyze each and every single thing to cut down on processing power required to be more efficient. This is what most species strive for. I might look like an *** if I have high standards, but why should one even bother about what others think about him. This only makes you become more and more biased towards popular choices.


I doubt anyone will bother reading this entire post though...

I did.

I found it to be a waste of space though.

Yay for blind optimism. It trumps stagnant pessimism any day!

We'll try to find you too then, and hopefully not disappoint. Just loook for a guy with a backwards black hat on that has red flames and has TaeKwonDo on it :D Or just run around to every person you see and ask them if they know where the twins are. That way may actually take longer, but depending on how you go about it, it could be an infinite times funnier :p


Wow Hbox was featured in a movie about ping pong!?

I was actually talking about it in the more general sense but I guess you missed it. Following your heart leads to God. That's what I'm talking about.

Atheist here.


Following your heart actually often brings you to do wrong moral choices.

zzzzzzomggggggg

Memphis, if you're concerned about going with people just make a thread in the Atlantic North social forum. Someone should (hopefully) see it and respond. There are PLENTY of NYC people going (Brawl and Melee alike).
