lol, too good. I didn't mean to list Spam twice, although I can't remember who I meant to list in his stead. Top 11 then, rofl

@ Inui: Hell, I care about your opinion. My point is that you disregard OTHER PEOPLE'S OPINIONS FAR TOO CASUALLY, and then expect people to listen to you. The fact of the matter is, you are unpopular, therefore less people care about your opinion. There's a reality check for you.

I didn't say you had to agree with me, I said your method of going about making your point is making you look dumb.

Saying that so many other players are better than Snakeee is an OPINION. You don't have proof of any of this. It's a very subjective thing to compare the quality of play of two players. First off, you would need to set the parameter for "better." If by better, you mean, would place better in tourney, then I don't think I'm overrating it at all.

Yup, it's wrong. You can think water is dry and that fire is cold all you want, it's obviously a wrong opinion. I don't care if you think Snakeee is better than me. You just overrate the mess out of him for some reason and are ignoring a lot of facts.
I'd like to see you pick up dry ice with your bare hands.

I wouldn't really put NEO in the top 11...I think that's just the Pierce meatridin' coming out.

He'd be just under that, though.

This topic is becoming more of a joke then anything. Anyone with eyes can see who should be sponsored. I don't know Snakee personally nor Azen so this is coming from an un-biased view point. I believe Azen should be in and not Snakeee. Tantalus is right in that the top he picked will not win consistently and will lose the sponsorship fast, and push us back to the beginning of what we all want to happen. Personally i say the whole list should be a community wide choice not by one player.

Snakee you are really acting childish. You know you are not as good as Azen is singles wise. You know you are not a country known player, yet you refuse to tell blue his fault, why? Your Pride, Greed? It's not hard to see that it has to be one of those things. Give it up and let Azen in. If not this should be changed to a community wide vote.
This.

and wtf this is BLUE'S **** sponsorship, who the hell are we to tell him what to do since he's the one putting this all together? I still don't agree with his decision and still believe that he is being blinded by Snakee's point of view on it.


It's not about being a "man of your word". It's about being man enough to admit you made the wrong decision and proceed to make the right one.
Inui - You are definitely derailing from the situation at hand. Clashing of Egos between Snakeee and Inui! LOLZ

Snakeee - Yeah, I agree that you, Atomsk, and I are at very comparable skill levels. You beat every time we played, Atomsk and I go back and forth, ect.. People seem to target you and there's a reason for it. What is that reason you ask? Ask your self that question and put your self in everyone's shoes before asking us.

Yeah, the same day I threestocked ADHD in tourny. :laugh:

NEO did do really well that day, that's for sure, and I definitely agree that NEO is a top player.

Btw, Pierce, most of the players I listed place higher more consistently and have more accomplishments. Snakeee doesn't perform that well in NJ/NY, tbqh. Most of his wtfomg accomplishments are in MD/VA, which is why that region thinks he's so good and better than people like Atomsk when he isn't.

But MD/VA > NY/NJ. Therefore, Snakeee's accomplishments are being accomplished in a place that actually matters.

So let me get this straight, Inui's point is- if Snakeee is on the list, then he should be too? Or If Inui is NOT on the list Snakeee should not be on as well? Regardless of promises or not?

Anyways, like I said, let blue pick whoever, and continue on with life. I will personally train to try and beat the sponsored players.

The reason was that Blue did not list Azen, then proceeded to take me out of it to fit him in. If he had taken somebody else out for Azen, it could have been the same thing. So, of course it's going to sound completely one sided arguing me with Azen. I doubt anyone places me higher than Azen nor do I expect them to or believe that I'm better than him because I don't.

Good luck Mario
Inui, you're very good, but Snakeee is better, no doubt. I would agree that he's possibly top 10 players in Atlantic North excluding Canada (IMO, top 12 is M2k, Spam, Teh_Spammerer, Azen, Chudat, Ninjalink, Bum, Snakeee, Shadow, ADHD, Neo and Candy). There are only a few challengers of this list in P.A. (Andy, Rogue Pit, and Vex.) I don't even know the Connecticut players in Brawl, or any of the other non-MD/VA/NY/NJ states in the AN region.
****, I'm so good I'm in Pierce's list twice.

Destroying people and their arguements works out much better for me, especially at this point. It's been proven to work and I will continue to do so.
Except it seems to have never worked for you a single time on smashboards. Funny how that works.

Yeah except I'm not going to disagree when facts proving my opinion wrong are put right in front of my face.
You've done that a LOT.

this is way too much pressure. it is my promise that binds me. i admit in my wrong doing i really do.
You are not losing your pride at ALL man. It's great that you are trying to be "a man of your word", that really is respectable. This is a TOTALLY different situation though.

"Hey, I'll team with you at the bi-weekly next week!"

- This is where you should be a man of your word

Compared to, "I'll give you 100$ if you talk to that girl over there".

- This seems to be relative to the situation.

---------------------------------------------------

This is my last attempt. If you still decide to put in Snakeee over Azen, i'll go with it. Lets make this sponsorship work!

Nah, NJ is the strongest state now. Look at Mew2King, ADHD, teh_spamerer, and Atomsk. Duh.

Snakeee performs better in the "stronger" region? Yeah, that makes sense...

Well, that's not my point.

However, you did bring something interesting up.

Snakeee and I are definitely of equal level. He may be better, but it's not by a very significant amount if he is going by the facts.

I am a major host in the region and a leader of the strongest crew.

I'd deserve it more.

But...I don't deserve it over Azen and many other players, so I'm not gunning for the spot. I'll admit that.

Yes it is by a very significant amount :laugh:

I actually think that if Blue had promised YOU the sponsorship you would have been fine with it

Analyze the situation from different perspectives. Example: Taking out Atomsk and putting in Azen, Azen instead of me, ect...

If you doubt anyone places you higher than Azen, then you should let him have it.

Yeah, results definitely show this, with the whole you being outplaced a lot when I don't have to face you and me beating people you can't beat.

Heck, you can beat people I can't beat, like ChuDat.

You're definitely delusional if you think you're a lot better than me.

Oh, my bad, I made a typo. I sometimes forget entire words because I think farther ahead than what I'm currently typing.

Sorry! :laugh:

haha i bring up good points sometimes

yeah i was kinda wondering that as well Chu, why not consider repalcing other peeps on the list for Azen???

I think Blue is too swayed by public opinion.

Blue, comparably, if a US President (Reagan comes to mind) made all his decisions based off what the people said, well, we wouldn't have gotten out of the depression of 1981. Sometimes, you have to man up and make a decision, based on what you think is right. Don't worry about pleasing other people.

If a pastor tries to please 100% of his congregation with a sermon, he will fail everytime. You can't please everyone. But if the pastor aims to speak about what God put on his heart to speak, he can't go wrong.

Blue, that's the advice I would ask you take into consideration. Facts/Opinion/Discussion put aside.

Inui I was just quoting that because it was funny. I don't think you're that far behind me, but I am extremely annoyed that you are going this far with this.

When you realize that I'll go much farther than you will, you'll surrender. :)

I respect Azen tremendously and I've known him since Melee. You didn't really do Melee and didn't see his Melee glory days.

I would surrender my spot to Azen.

look i had already admit it, but instead of attacking snakeee, what about atomsk is snakeee better than atomsk? snakeee being attacked like this is brutal and wrong. so is there an alternate?

Ugh, I hate it when I hit backspace, and lose my whole post.

In a nutshell:
Snakeee, Inui just admitted you might be better. Take it and run, lmao
Blue, since you seem to be so worried about honor, think about the fact that you're put in a position to be responsible. The sponsors didn't ask you to put 5 people you like in. They asked for the top 5 players. If you're worried about honor, you should provide them the information you were sent to receive, instead of skewing the list due to your own personal reason. If I had given you 5 dollars to do me a favor and get something from the store, and you took some of it and brought your friend some candy because you promised him some candy, even though I told you to bring me back my change, that would be dishonorable.

M2k, Azen, and Spam are definitely top three in AN.

Atomsk, Chu, and Snakeee are the ones up for the coin toss here, but while I agree that Snakeee is better than Inui, I don't think he's better than Atomsk or Chu. I'll back off here though, because I'm not too sure about that, and don't want my opinion to be too heavily weighted in this case.

The other option is for you to surrender your spot.

You're not a top player.
QFT

Did you even ask if that's possible Blue? That would be the morally correct and honest thing to do, and the entire AN would respect you tremendously for it. Let's face it, if you're sponsored, you're only going to lose when you face A-Class and S-Class players, and it'll simply embarrass you and cause everyone to question why you were sponsored, destroying your reputation anyway. By giving your spot to Azen, AN would regard you as a hero.
