To be fair, I haven't complained about anything. I just bring up things I think could be improved, and asking questions about said subject and offer advice. No one should be viewing this in a negative light because there is no negativity. It's possible to discuss things intelligently without insulting people or complaining.


Strife: I understood your analogy at least, but if you have a problem with someones mentality just don't comment on it. You are on a video game forum, it's nothing to worry about.


Everyone else: Chill.

Hylian if you have questions it is fine but at the same time making statements like " I wont enter cause of this" makes you not look as bright as you are.



I think us staff are doing whats in the best interest of this event and I hope to see everyone enter that can come to this. Our goal is 300+ for each game.

Standing up for something I believe in does not in any way make me look stupid. It's my choice and I'm not asking others to not enter because of it. I'd really appreciate it if you wouldn't try to incite drama when I'm trying to help this thread get back on topic.

Well I think you have a right to stand up for what you believe in. But you also should know when you pick your fights. IIRC you are a fox main right or did you switch to Icz in the two years I seen you play melee at Apex 2009 ? I remember that event vividly but I do not remember tbh.

But I am sure since you are a mod you know already to take this to PM.




Either way if you want to help make the tournament why not volunteer to be a helper.

Speaking of volunteering to be a helper.

I know I asked this before, but when are the decisions and notifications for that going to be sent out?

Oh wait, diem told me it was going to be a few days after ultimate comes out, nevermind.

I seriously have no idea what you are talking about Alex or how it relates to my posts in any way. When to pick my fights? Do you even read my posts? I'm not fighting with anyone except you now, since you seem so hell bent on starting drama with others trying to offer advice.

Yes I main fox and yes I played melee at the first apex and placed 13th. What does that have to do with anything we are talking about? You seriously need to realize when people are trying to help you and not demean them for it.

I do not demean. I am sorry if I am seeming that way. I just disagree with you making a statement like that in my thread. What does you announcing you are not entering melee going to do ?

You have to understand I take all negative things said by players very seriously. I have tried to talk to you and reach you to talk about this outside of SWF but I will say how I feel to you in private because I have a lot to say to you.

I will enter melee if you unban wobbling.

:).
I wasn't going to enter melee in the first place. I said I would if you unbanned wobbling.

You are taking this way to seriously. You don't need to "reach out" and talk to me outside of SWF about a really simple matter that I am completely over. I have said nothing negative to you or your staff and done nothing but offer suggestions with logical reasoning. I was replied to perfectly fine by your staff, and the issue was done.

There was no problem. You are making it into a problem. You can't censor people from voicing their opinions and their is no reason for you to get upset about them when they have nothing to do with you personally.

I sent a PM.



I take it personal only cause I, and others, are killing ourselves over this. We put THOUSANDS into this and a statement like that bothers me. If I take it too far I am sorry but I had to say how I feel.

Alex is an amazing host, and works amazingly hard. Has great player outreach, and does a ton. I focus on events, sponsorships, and news posts. Together, along with Cristin, Chibo, and the dozens of dedicated workers/commentators/volunteers, we make Apex happen.

If there is a rule someone doesn't like, I'm sorry. Nothing is going to change at all unless it's a necessary measure.

I'm going to start reporting EVERY post talking about such topics. If you want rules to change, join the bbr/mbr/urc, or become a world wide host. You don't realize that a few people unhappy about a rule is better than a ton of them raging at our event, making us look bad in front of sponsors.

If you can't handle the game without Wobbling, you have no place playing. Like Hylian said, he's not entering, but would with wobbling. I respect his approach. The rest of you need to move on. Quickly.

My apologizes, purely ignorance on my part.

Is it free to spectate? I don't see it on the front page and would rather not look through 200+ pages. I'm guessing it is since capcom games have a different venue fee...?

Even before the other events were added, there was a spectator fee. 10$

I agree that it's true that Isai hype is a large part of the reason he doesn't enter melee anymore. He hasn't been ale to keep up with the metagame, so he should be expected to lose. But instead of just letting him play the game people gather around his matches and hype it up as much as they can.

It must be really annoying.

Isai was perfectly caught up with the metagame the last tournament I watched him in earlier in the year.

Possibly. But i guess thats the con of being a fan favourite. He won't ever receive the name amount of hype that K.Mac gets though :troll:
