Awesome GameStop Stories Smash Brawl

[jupiter]

A while ago I posted up a story about "me telling off a gamestop employee."

--------------
and I got an infraction by a moderator for "minor spam" because I posted a "delay" thread after a sticky said not to.



That story I told isn't real. I was so tired of seeing so many poeple being scared of the delay that I thought if I told a story about how it's NOT delayed, people would stop...just so happens that I have the worst luck, because Sakurai updated with an official delay.

My mailbox got bombarded with hate mail...lol. Yeah, I didn't know how to respond to this...so I just laid low for a while...

The only true part about my story is that Toys R Us at the time did have their shipments scheduled for 105 copies of Brawl on Feb 10th.

Anyway, point is, that out of all of you, one guy in particular found it so entertaining that he posted a YouTube video of himself reading my post with a description to his video saying, "I told off a gamestop employee sorry had to write this ownage down and read it back 2 u"

This video has gotten so popular, that is has sprung up 87,000+ views in a little over 2 days, and there are already 4 video responses/remixes for it.

It's crazy!

All this over what I posted up about the delay.

The guy who posted the video set it so that he has to approve the comments before they're posted. So he's not letting me post comments on his video.

I figured I'd just sit back and not interfere and see where it leads...kind of chuckling at the creation I've made that spawned from my infamous post.

But I think it's gone a little too far... or maybe it hasn't gone far enough...


Either way, I've decided to step out of the shadows and speak.


I've favorited this infamous video and a couple of the remixes that were made from the original video...so I guess I'm enjoying this hype, too.

But, my question is,...what do you think? How crazy is this? ...I mean...there's no way for me to out him as a fake and tell people that I'm the guy who posted the original "Awesome GemeStop Story" thread (aka "Let's end the DELAY!"). I can't out him...he won't approve/post my comments.

But at the same time, I think I should be grateful that he was able to take my story up to another level and make it a phenomenon on YouTube.

At the same time, I feel like it's tarnishing my tagname, Jupiter, which I've adopted a long time ago during Melee. I plan to stick with it for Brawl. But maybe in actuality, this isn't tarnishing my name...

But I guess this will only make me more well-known...only people will be like, "wtf?!" when they meet me in person and realize I'm not that nerd on YouTube. I don't really think that the majority of people who see the video know that it's from my (Jupiter) post on SmashBoards.com . I don't even think my username/tagname is even attached to the video for those who never visisted this site.

I'm curious to know what the rest of you think about this....should I just roll with it and let the infamy return to me?

 

[Drclaw411]

i think you actually did do that, and are now trying to cover your own but because you went on a tirade, then got Nintend-OWNED when you found out the delay was real.

 

[Pun]

Roll with it. Otherwise, you may turn into the aznseal of basilmarket.

 

[jupiter]

hahah, no, that guy's not me. I'm hispanic/white/japanese mix.

 

[Yigguth]

that guy got owned

 

[Fader]

I too, actually think it did happen.

 

[FIERCE]

If I were you I wouldn't take credit for that story. He portrays you as rude and inconsiderate and if you're like, "Hey, he's not rude & inconsiderate, I am - because that's my story not his, please - flame me instead" then you're just asking to get bludgeoned by rocks . Shake it off.

 

[Rodent23]

That is an exceptionally ugly kid in the Youtube link.

 

[jupiter]

lol FIERCE...yr probably right.

That story was complete bull. I'm nothing like how I portrayed myself in that story. I was trying to have some fun while I wrote it...but now look what happened...LOL Stuff this bizarre has never happened to me!

 

[jupiter]

That is an exceptionally ugly kid in the Youtube link.

hahaha,...i thought so too. But after a while...I began to think he was *kinda* cute....

EWWW, what's wrong with me?!?! I usually have TASTE...I'm becoming trashy.

 

[Sanu]

Oh wow, you're worse than I thought. I'm sure you're happy, your prayers have been answered! A way to easily scapegoat your terrible personality! Hahaha, you're too much.

 

[drengist]

You got what you deserved. You should keep low profile and hope that people forget this. Now you're just making it worse.

 

[solrac_krad]

Man, the kid in that vid is ugly

 

[Eternal phoenix Fire]

Ahahahahahaha!!!!


You're such a dork. Nice try though.

 

[kashikomarimashita]

You should be ashamed of yourself. Making up stories to build yourself up, and then later admitting it. Do us all a favor and stick to reality from here on out. Well I shouldnt be one to judge

 

[Igneous42]

errrrrrr.......

You do realize that people think that story is funny because it makes you look like an idiot right?

 

[AetherIke]

Just forget about it, and dont make up any more stories from now on.

Isnt THAT big of a deal anyway and the only people who would hold it against you forever
were the gullible ones who actually believed you.

 

[PwnyRide]

INTERNETZ IS SERIOUS BISNESS


Just forget about it. Since when has it mattered what some nobody said on the internet. Just dont lie profusely next time.

 

[SonicSmash001]

Lol your cool man, funny story too, I hope you just don't screw up your rep or anything cus of that crazy vid...

It is funny watching that nerd spaz out though.

 

[jupiter]

heheh,...*grumble*...yeah, I knew I probably would be making this worse for me by posting this...but I figured it wouldn't add too much damage that has be dealt already. If anything, I'm at least redeeming myself from being that snotty, immature, arrogant character that I portrayed in the story. =_=

That nerd spazzing out is freakin' funny. I couldn't stop laughing when I first saw it.

 

[chaos_zero]

By the way...the guy on youtube....

It's this guy:

Kevin "Fragmaster" Bowen

of Something Awful. He's pretty funny, in an obnoxious kind of way. Does a lot of the voices for the flashtub.

Here's a video of him:

[ALB247]

You reap what you sow and you deserve every bit of negativity heading your way. Don't bother posting a reply, seeing as I'll never see you again and don't care what you think because I like to mess with people's emotions.

 

[MSS]

lol FIERCE...yr probably right.

That story was complete bull. I'm nothing like how I portrayed myself in that story. I was trying to have some fun while I wrote it...but now look what happened...LOL Stuff this bizarre has never happened to me!

You're an absolute moron.

 

[Shiny Pidgey]

Well, for the record, anyone who read the origional post and didn't know you were joking is a ****ing moron.

And I actually did until now think the guy in the vid was you, but I knew it was a joke, too.

And the poor timing of it, just before the announcement, makes it a whole lot funnier in my book.

 

[JusDBerube]

I love the youtube video. Maybe because I've been screwed over by GameStop on several occasions. I wish there were more videos.

 

[Sabrewulf238]

I don't think you should try and get credit for what that guy is saying on youtube. (Who on earth would make a video over something he saw posted on a forum!? and something so small and insignificant too. )

I actually can't believe that people thought you actually said those things to the man in gamestop, it looked so obviously made-up.

Best advice would be: Lay low and forget it ever happened.

 

[G&Wismyhomeboy]

Would you have fessed up to making it all up if Brawl hadn't been delayed? Seriously, were you trying to impress us with your toughness by standing up to that awful Gamestop manager? Now that Brawl is indeed delayed, you're having to cover for yourself. Awwwww.

Congrats on whatever infamy this brings you; you seem to be enjoying it.

that isnt really him are you dumb

 

[FoulPlay]

that isnt really him are you dumb

I found this link on 4chan.
They think it's him.
He originated from 4chan, he's a troll. Hence why they love him and know it's him.
I'm trusting that it's him from them, And by the way if it isn't him he sure looks a lot like him.

By the way, in case you were like my friend on msn who thought I was talking about the beginning guy, no, I wasn't, I was talking about the guy at the end.

Also: Because you seem kinda new to the boards, I'll tell you this. When you go to post, you shouldn't be abusive to another member because they can report you.

Its kind funny for me to read this, only because I kind of new it was fake, but at the same time if you did do it I would have shaked my head.

How does it feel to be a winner and a loser at the sametime?

 

[FaceGuy]

It's obvious he's making fun of uber geeks. I really don't care what you said or whether it was true or not but I don't understand why you want to say "The person that guy is making fun of actually exists, and he's me". It seems kind of like he's doing you a favour by not letting people know it was you. Most people will just think he wrote it himself as a joke, but if they find out it was you they will realise / think that it isn't.

 

[Mr. Ocax]

ROFL! Jupiter, all i can say is. You got owned, *******.

 

[Super Drybones]

I think i bought my happymeal from he guy in that video

 

[Falling Whistness]

I don't think anyone who saw the youtube video would think it's serious. It's clearly meant to be a parody.

 

[FireWater]

Eh negative attention is better than no attention at all. Enjoy the 15 minutes.

 

[kookekooke]

To be honest, your story made me WANT a delay. I wish it weren't fake because now the delay doesn't have any satisfaction.

 

[SirPenguin]

I know it's been pointed out already, but I still think it's HILARIOUS how you think you spawned something popular, when it's just an admin at SA doing a dramatic reading of your post because of how much of a ******* you sound like.

haha you read 4chan

 

[Kazuya]

You're really ugly.
