Atomsk should never be captain of anything or ever call shots on anything. Trust me, I know. He'll probably admit it himself.
You're CONSTANTLY bringing up when I sent Rhyme a samus/OLIMAR player in to fight Tec0 assuming he'd go OLIMAR. STFU dude.

I base nothing on one time occurrences. You showed how capable of errors you were when I sat out of captaining draft crews recently. You're skilled, but not a good captain at all.

I'm way too drunk to bother arguing with talentless hacks like dmbrandon, so **** that **** for now. He can just keep ranting like a moron for now, because in the end, I will win, and he won't. '
****ing tool.

edit: **** man at this point im willing to destroy myself if i bring him down with me, like wow what a bad person i didnt think i could dislike someone this much he's rly lucky i have diana and nonna or id...

edit2: dmbrandon is the nobody atm since he can't win anymore, but i can. im the leader of NJ now, not him. he's being a jerk just to get attention. **** that guy. time to try to ignore him.

Pit is too easy to counterpick into oblivion. It's the same reason I'm apprehensive about using Pyronic~Star despite his skill.
This is not true, especially since Pit is able to plank in crews, btw if needed at all, I'm willing to plank heavily if used ^_^

I don't care if I'm not even considered, I'm just throwing my name out there.

Yeah...

- Ally being East Coast is bull****. You all know it in your hearts that it's true. Never really met Ally and he's probably awesome as hell, but the dude is NOT East Coast and not by a long run.

- The fact that some people are like, "Well, we can't have Ally AND M2K," just confirms how silly and tangible this **** is. Crew battles have nothing to do with "making sure our team is balanced"; it's about players representing their region and that's it. M2K is East Coast mainly NY/NJ and Ally is ****ing Canada and anyone says otherwise is a complete douchebag.

- This ****ing drama is ********. We got Inui complaining because no one wants to accept him in NY/NJ, and we have Tantalus complaining for the same reasons in MD/VA. You guys need to realize that whether you have the credentials to be a captain or not if the crew doesn't trust or want you to be captain you're SOL. This means YOU Inui and Tantalus. Take a step back and stfu. And Max, I love you boy, but you're not running ****. The only person I would ever step down to in terms of leadership is Plank as a TO and Wife as a Crew Captain. No one else has earned the auto-respect slot.

the reason why it's so complicated for EC to settle down and do **** is because EC isn't a ****ing group. we are split NY/NJ and MD/VA. idk why NEO doesnt wanna just let NY/NJ keep their drama and why Candy is flipflopping. pretty sure if MD/VA represents themselves ALL the drama from our side will go away except Tantalus being butthurt about not being Captain. other than that would settle our ****. instead we gotta deal with Inui assuming the position of authority and hearing everyone complain about him not having it

md/va really needs to split and stay away from this drama.

weakest argument i've seen you make, inui.

lets you and i talk since you know i'm cool with you despite you being a major *******. <3

why the hell do you want to be the leader of a crew where the majority of the players do not want you in the leadership position?

also, you gotta' stop saying **** like that. "your opinion is invalid." it really isn't and i'm pretty sure more people would be more willing to listen to me than you just because i'm a cool *** dude on that credential alone. like... you don't have any authority to judge people and comments like those just makes people wanna tie you upside down on the swing sets and leave you there to hang overnight

okay, zucco.

if i come to ny/nj for a few months and enter your tournies every weekend and then a md/va vs. ny/nj crew battles comes up, i am still considered md/va because this is the region that i am originally from and have represented for the majority of my smash career. the same applies to Ally, or do you disagree with that logic?

Because I want to win, and I know we'll win if I'm the captain.

A lot of what you said depends on the split actually happening. Anything besides the Ally stuff. So, unless the split happens, it's just eh.

Omni: Ally's spoken of how barely any tournies happen in Canada, and how he likes the EC scene more than the Canada scene. Your situation is different since both regions have an active tourney scene.

I'm not sure if I'm debating or providing info to bring more light to the situation, but that's what I can say about it.

Inui...I haven't seen a single post supporting you for any position of authority/power...in this entire thread. Meanwhile there are at least a few people who support splitting MD/VA from NJ/NY, and ironically one of the reasons is the drama you are causing.

Frankly, the best leaders on the EC are
-Omni
-ChuDat
-Pierce
Maybe Chibo
Maybe Plank but I'd say for Melee not Brawl

Inui, you are acting as a "Self Proclaimed Leader".

imo ChuDat is the best captain cause I've seen first hand that he is willing to take in ALL THE KNOWLEDGE AND OPINIONS of everyone on the crew and then form the best decision after LISTENING TO EVERYONE. Not only that, but has ChuDat EVER lost a crew battle? Chu isn't mean, he listens, he helps out, he knows his ****, and this may be his last national tournament.

Inui, a leader brings people together and listens for christ sake. you just create more chaos than order which makes you being a leader super counterproductive

Edit: @Yes!, yea dude i definitely see your point. in terms of the general audience accepting Ally as East Coast may prove difficult but i do think it will fly. i was more annoyed how people responded to Mew2King by saying "well we cant have them both" like they're trading cards and we can only keep one ignoring the fact that M2K is more EC than a lot of the players on the list. that whole fiasco kinda urked me but i despite that i definitely UNDERSTAND why Ally should be considered EC

A = Ally's place of residence during the weekdays.

He has competed in basically nothing but East Coast tournaments for the past three and a half months. He's a part of the NJ/NY scene, basically.

While I'm not sure if I agree on him being East Coast, it sure as hell isn't THAT clear. If it were, there wouldn't be so much debate over it.

M2K is East Coast mainly NY/NJ and Ally is ****ing Canada and anyone says otherwise is a complete douchebag.
Jason has spent every day in the past 4-5 months in the state of Ohio excluding out of state tournaments and as of the end of this week, Christmas break. After break, he will be returning to Ohio until the next break. All of his Smash activity, minus a few tournaments, has been in the Midwest.

Ally resides in Canada, HARDLY above the American border, and is clearly East Coast by location on the map (though not by Smasher definition). All of his Smash activity has been in NJ/NY/MD/VA for the past few months.

Imo, it's more far-fetched for Jason to play for the East Coast than it is for Ally. (excluding the whole AlphaZealot thing)

Needs a poll, imo. Minimum 10 nominations to get your name up there, or something. There should be one NE captain, one tristate captain, and one MD/VA captain if you ask me.

md/va really needs to split and stay away from this drama.
WC is split into NorCal, WA and SoCal (and hell, WA is even split up into WWA and EWA). Midwest is MW-E and MW-W. South is Southeast and Southwest.



I'm not agreeing or disagreeing with anything, just playing devil's advocate.

AZ is giving his opinion on the situation. He can say what he likes. You disregarding him because of where he's from provides more evidence that you really just care about winning and nothing else.

Not to mention at this very moment I am in Maryland and will be here until the 30th and my parents home is less than an hour and a half away from the location of Pound 4, and finally I'm in Maryland at least 4 months of the year.

Also, the post I made regarding M2K was my personal opinion alone (though I may have misused the word "we" but I'm to lazy to scroll back). Unlike Inui I do not assume I have control over the Pound 4 MW crew. I have lent my backing to Lain and the decisions he makes because I see it better to have an agreed on captain, then trying to take control for myself. If M2K wants to be on the MW crew he is more then welcome and it is ultimately Lains decision.

I think there is a strong case for Ally to play for the EC based on past-precedent.
-Ally played for the MW at Genesis because he had spent the better part of April-July in MI.
-ChuDat played for the WC back at FC6 cause he had spent the better part of the time leading up to that going to Ken's place/Cali and such.

Now, ultimately, it should be Planks decision as TO on the rules for the crew battle:
He can specify exceptions like Ally. Or how it works for people who go to school out of state (like me). Etc. Then just respect Planks final decision.

nevermind, dude. i can't argue with you at this point considering you travel around the smashboards (mainly MD/VA) and create chaos and havoc and throw in your 2 cents and now you're lecturing AZ who has a lot of credibility in the smash scene to mind his own business?

i'm done. thought u were a bit better than that.

edit: like most of what Doom said altho i don't necessarily agree with everything. i guess it's at the point where either decision "to keep/remove m2k/ally" is justifiable. personally, i do see ally playing EC as allowable and i still feel like Jason is EC.

I'm not lecturing AZ. I just think that it's best for AN players to handle AN's crew business. I get annoyed with Chibo when he constantly interjects in NJ's business when he's PA. This is no different.

Inui, the fact is the EC needs a captain that the region respects, supports, and will listen to. It should be obvious from all the banter that regardless of credentials this person is not you. At the end of the day it will come down to physical decisions made IN PERSON. If you don't have the backing of the crew, which you don't, then you cannot effectively be a captain.

Someone needs to step up or you guys are gonna under perform. It shouldn't be that difficult to get someone with majority backing.

Leadership isn't about who can yell the loudest or proclaim their accomplishments to anyone who will listen. It is about mutual respect and admiration. It is about trust. If people do not trust your decisions you cannot lead effectively, regardless of how much knowledge you have.

Nah, we'd wreck with me as captain. People just need to not be biased against me since I'm extremely qualified in terms of knowledge and have amazing strategies. People are gonna listen at the event. This is the Internet.

yeah, uh no Inui. stop selectively arguing. you're in everyone's business and have been asked to keep out but you continue to pop your head in and piss people off.

basically what i'm trying to evade from doing is doing a public poll since you'll be embarrassed by the results. regardless of what YOU want and what YOU think the other dozens of equally important smash members in the community do not agree with you and do not want you as a leader. so just step down dude; if you really care for East Coast like you say you do than you'll realize you just stepping back and being humble would be in our best interest

since we don't have any auto-selected leaders for this group i think we should take Doom's advice and solve this with a poll. it won't be a public poll where people can point and click, but rather an individual poll (in here) where only East Coast players are the only ones acknowledged.

the current main question that needs to be addressed is:

Should MD/VA and NY/NJ be a single crew, or should they be separate?
- Single
- Separate

if majority wants a Single crew than we can also do a poll on who we believe should be Captains. if the majority wants a Separate crew than MD/VA will go handle their business and leave NY/NJ alone and vice versa

is everyone cool with this approach? if so, just go ahead and start voting and i'll tally up the marks. explanations with your votes would be dope
