For now shoutouts to danky kang?
D-dankey kang?

Really sad at how I underperformed at this tourney, other than being sick I've been kind of just sad this whole week and not feeling like doing schoolwork or even playing. That SD against KoreanDJ was heartbreaking. I'll just have to come back stronger next year. Shoutouts later.

This was my very first Apex and I have to say I was floored by how much fun those 3 days were. It was the best weekend of my year so far. I would love to come back again not just for the competition, but to continue to meet new people and form friendships. I may not have won any money, but I won something far more precious, and that's the love and warm welcome from my new friends. =)

He didn't even mention bracket pools in his post lol.

Unless I missed something, of course.
Well he was complaining about getting DQed, but as I explained in the other thread before Apex even happened, bracket pools are much rougher with DQing than pools because a single match can hold up an entire bracket. A single RR match doesn't hold up anything because everyone else can play their matches while they wait for you. Idk about anyone else's pool, but even with everyone in the general vicinity at all times and Juggleguy/Tirno TOing, my pool still took forever to finish because you are constantly waiting on matches to finish before you can play other matches. The total RR pool time might not be much less or might even be greater than the total bracket pool duration, but individual players often end up finishing their matches quicker than if they have to wait through a whole bracket. Players in multiple games can let people know, sit down and grind out all their matches right away, then go to the other game, and it makes a huge difference for players like M2K who aren't going 0-2 in their brackets. They are winning their pool which means they have to wait for the ENTIRE bracket to finish when he could have bopped 5-7 kids in half the time and dipped.

It's whatever because I don't really want to turn this thread into another bracket pools discussion, but I couldn't help but laugh at someone supporting bracket pools by insulting people and then getting DQed and complaining about the predicament.

I got DQ'd out of winners in 64 while I was playing Melee(my friends said someone went to tell the TOs what I was doing), but it's okay I know you can only make exceptions for notable players <3

(i am not actually mad because i'm bad at 64 but i'm pretty sure you guys want to know about all the problems people had)

If they wanted to know about your problems, they would have listened last year when the same **** happened.

^Yeah, that was definitely scary. If someone could report back on how he's doing, that'd be nice.

@Bones
i disagree that RR pools would have solved my problems. and im not mad that I got DQd due to a lack of time. Im mad i got DQd BECAUSE there was plenty of time for me to have played all the matches, and I got DQd anyway since like the guy 3 posts up said, im not famous.

* PLEASE LISTEN TO http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I__9QbUqXAM WHILE YOU READ *






Ladies and nerds, I (the living legend, Xyro77) have returned to you with great sadness. I have brought with me my annual assessment of the yearly bore fest known as Apix hosted by Alex Trebek of Uganda. This year, we saw the rise of a REAL game (melee) as well as the rise of a FAKE game for little babies that cant handle brawl or melee. We call that game P(oisoned) M(elee). I expected Melee to do well (Thanks Evo) and i also expected the "mommy please give me my bottle of milk and a new diaper while i mod a game im not good at so that i can finally be good at it (but i still suck anyway teehee)" unskilled players to show in full force....and they did. However, this year, my Brawl night terrors had finally come true. The sight no human should bare witness did indeed happen. The end of Bawl has truly come.

But first, let me tell you a little story that lead up to the disaster that was Apux.

The day before Apox, i was with my GF. It was a dark, cold and stormy but we were sitting naked at a Mexico food place eating/drinking strawberry Margaritas. We were talking about my love for Interracial ****** Amputee Porn (iMap for short) when all of the sudden my iphone (glorious Apple master race) alarm went off. I reached for my phone to see what alarm could possibly be going off so early in the day. It was the "Apex has started. EMPTY YOUR CARE CUP"" alarm. So having seen the alrm, i emptied my care cup promptly. The next 3 days of Apix were ignored to the fullest of my ability. In fact, not thinking of Apux made me lose weight, gain a 6 pack, added a few inches to my already ridiculously long Zair and made my receding hair line......un-recede. I kept it off my mind and i swear i thought i was an improved man (in all ways). I was finally happy.

However........

The day after Apex, i get on SmashBoards. I get on to see how things were going in the Houston thread or maybe the WiiFitGirl boards (my ssb4 main btw). I was willing to look at anything but Apex info. But something in my head called out to me. It told me.....things. Things like "What if a Samus won Brawl at Apex?" Things like "What if a bunch of kick @$$ mid tiers placed well?" What if, NickRiddle finally posted "Xyro, when can i touch your peg leg?" When thoughts like that go through your head you cant help but go see if those thoughts are actually true. So i raced to the Apex results thread to see if Samus (or any REAL character) had won Brawl.

Here is what i found.............



















1: Nairo :metaknight:











2: Zero :metaknight:











3: ESAM :popo:











4: Mew2King :metaknight:











5: Ally :metaknight:

Wait.......WTF?!?!?!?!?!?!?!













Batman has finally won an Apex :( and has taken up 4 of the top 5 spots. Oh god this cant be happening! No please lawdy i beg you slap me awake!!!! Not only has MK dominated in singles and doubles for over 5 years now, he has also won an Apex. How much more will you stupid TOs allow? How many more innocent children will you feed to the NerdBat? Tell me, WHY do you let this happen? Do you enjoy it? Does MK's tornado sound make you want to touch yourself? WHAT IS IT?!?!?!??!!

YOU KNOW WHAT? I AM SICK OF THIS! IM DONE! IM OUT!!!!!

Xyro is the best poster on the boards of smash and the music made the read that much better. 10/10 would read again.
Also, Otori won Apex 2012 with MK, so it wasn't MK's first Apex.

I meant to say American mk but yes you are right. I can't edit it on my phone. Too big.


Edit: if people could read my post in 1min 30 sec, the music goes pretty good.

To issue a correction, In PM I only used Ness this tourney. I've never played Sonic in an official capacity and maybe have tried him twice.
