Apex 2013 - Pools up in OP! - Only at the door for FGC!

[Niko_K]

This community is ********, really.

I have a lot of money, and maybe I should put some away to visit every major Melee national and just yell at all the top players all day, because I can.

 

[WindMajor]

Will we get to figure out who is in our bracket pool before the event, and if so, at what date?

Reposting cause still curious.

 

[KoRoBeNiKi]

U people saying the guy who got attacked should be banned are dumb, I trash talk all the time and if someone attacked me I'd use the chaos to hopefully stumble over by a chick and grab her *** just to get something out of it.

#teamInui

what he said, well not the 2nd half but honestly, there is massive trash talk in tournaments. How bad was it for someone to punch someone

On another note,

Spoiler

I guess the lion got revenge

Hey, if that's how you want to spend your cash.. more power to you!

Talk ****tt get hit.

 

[BlindSpot]

Hi everyone. I just wanted to say that I (had) a partner for doubles, and I pre-registered for that. However, he just found out that he can't make it until the day after, when singles start. So, I was curious if anyone that doesn't already have a partner wanted to team with me?

I'm a Fox main. I'll admit, I'm not THAT good, but I'm at least decent. So, if you'd like to team, then let me know.

You probably want to clarify if thats brawl or melee

 

[Luigigoshard91]

Anyone know if ka-master is making a return?

 

[M@v]

Reposting cause still curious.

Past two apex's had pools online before the tourneys, so I'm assuming nothing will change for this one.

Oh, sorry. Totally slipped my mind. Brawl.

**** yeah.

 

[kirbykid]

What are the chances of getting some SMASHBOARD action going on at APEX 2013? I'll bring the board and host the game if there will be willing participants. It's basically a crew battle system.

SmashBOARD

What if we got it on a stream. That would be pretty sweet.

 

[Niko_K]

I'm actually going to show up to major tournaments and yell at Americans now.

Anyone tries to hit me I'll seriously shank you, I'm not some dumb ***** nerd like the majority of you, I live off drug money and sleep with mace.

Hope you guys like being yelled at during grand finals. It's okay because thats what you have to deal with at high level play right?

If I had my passport I'd be coming to Apex for this but I'll wait until the next large national.

Have fun.

 

[[FBC] Papa Mink]

This guy is way too hype.

Do you think before you post? Two wrongs don't make a right.

[Niko_K]

Keitaro so quick to defend your NJ buddy.

Two wrongs?

According to you and Inuis supporters my behavior is one that is generally accepted as tournament nature.

I would be doing nothing but supporting those who are outnumbered because of nationalism.

 

[Dr Peepee]

niko k can we be friends

 

[[FBC] Papa Mink]

****ing crashboards.

Someone fix that.

 

[Niko_K]

Of course brother, and when I come down we can play some friendlies in Melee.

I'll be entering the tournament that I come to trash talk as well to prove a point about demographics. Particularly in regards to the disadvantage anyone travelling from outside the USA has to face at these major national tournaments.

 

[Dr Peepee]

crowds def change games, I respect your point

gl me LMAO

 

[Niko_K]

That's exactly my point. Your subconscious is designed to intake every environmental signal with or without your awareness, and thus you are influenced by all sensory information.

If you make it to GF good luck to you, though your opponent is equally disadvantaged so simply responding positively to the environmental signals around you and your ability to repeatedly do so will determine who is more affected.

i picture Mr.Popo saying this...and it fits perfectly.

You should probably team up with Mike Haggar to run your own melee commentary over skype, comedians recorded themselves over some award show once in protest, told people to mute the tv and watch while listening to them. It would be hilarious.

 

[t3h Icy]

Grow up, seriously.

Anyone tries to hit me I'll seriously shank you, I'm not some dumb ***** nerd like the majority of you, I live off drug money and sleep with mace.

 

[VideoKidHEERO]

idk why but i thought pp was gonna take this back and forth to some hella demonic as place

lol @ shanking dudes though

 

[Niko_K]

Krisp I'm gonna ask Unknown if he would be up to do Melee commentary on our own livestream. I like the idea.

Occupy Apex 2013.

 

[SolCalibre]

Not too sure if G.P has posted yet but we both just booked flights a few days ago, there may be more coming with us but we're not sure yet.

Currently looking into melee and brawl vids from 2012 apex.
(I'm only entering Brawl singles and Pokemon though)

 

[Grey Belnades]

Occupy Apex 2013.

That's going to be short lived..

 

[Esca]

Bet you don't live off drug money. How much you get for a bow cuh im tryna get paid while im up there.

Also got a 9 in my pillowcase, and my CHL.

If someone tries to hit you, fight them like a real man. Don't be a ***** *** ***** and pull a knife. Get your *** whooped if you gotta, but don't try and kill anyone if it's just 1 v 1.

I'm not a supporter of Inui, I'm a supporter of no unnecessary violence at tournaments. lol at NJ buddy/Natonalism. You can easily switch the players around in the situation and the verdict would be the same.

Inui's behavior is not acceptable imo, he just shouldn't receive equal punishment to someone who actually laid hands on another.

Nah, don't do that bro. It won't help your cause. You are just frustrated, take a chill pill.

Da kid, will respond later, in class.

Is there any sort of rule with regards to trash talk? Anything that could address an audience member's attempts at distracting a player in order to get them to play worse?

I think a specific rule should be set in place. I know there's probably a general conduct rule, but that isn't enough. People draw different lines. The general conduct rule would obviously apply to something like an audience member standing in front of the player and screaming in their face, screaming in their ear, physically disturbing them or the chair that they're standing on, etc.
However, something like incredibly obnoxious and effective trash talk is apparently (for whatever ridiculous reason) considered to be part of the game by some people. I don't want to go into Apex hoping that trash talk is covered by the conduct rule, get trash talked viciously to the point where I can't concentrate, complain to the TO or a nearby staff member and have them tell me "sorry bro, deal with it. it's part of the game"
People also have different ideas on how loud is 'too loud', or how close is 'too close'. I don't want anyone breathing down my neck either XD

And on that note, you guys should put up a ruleset section somewhere -.-

I know none of this is probably going to happen anyways, but you can't be too careful. Imagine if one or more of the japanese brawl players was affected by this because there wasn't a rule in place, and decided to not attend the next Apex because of it.

 

[Esca]

We should have a rule where you don't complain and just take the *** chewing. It's been around for 11 years without conflict we don't need one downsie to screw this up.

Also, I want to cinnamon match someone here. Someone let's cinnamon match.

 

[[FBC] Papa Mink]

There's a huge difference between me saying constant insults, and then you choking me out.

Game.
Set.
Match.

 

[Heartstring]

*looks at the whole beef scenario going on in here*
Good god, Where on earth is that 4chan copypasta when I need it!

 

[KageMurphy]

There doesn't need to be a rule against trash talking, you should just know not to be all up in anyone's ear with it, stop being so soft, holy ****

 

[Keitaro]

DEHF Airport Pickup from JFK!

DEHF arrives to NY at JFK airport at 10PM the day before Apex (January 10th). Anybody who thinks they could pick him up and bring him to New Brunswick will get paid well :D

Swear we need an airport pickup thread. hmm!!!

 

[da K.I.D.]

Im bout to trash talk the hell out of EVERYBODY (as i normally do)

Except im the big black man in this situation, so we'll see how many of you are tryna step up and knock somebody out when the dude talking junk is bigger than you.

 

[NickRiddle]

KiD, ****-talk fight.
First one to get beat wins.
