Did my shoutouts on the train, not like i didn't have ebough time on my hands this time :D
First of all:
Thank you Armada and Lolex, and all your little helpers whos name I don't know for an amazing tournament, it was an incredible experience.
Congratulations to Leffen for besting the beast. Lets see wether you've woken it.
Beast has shown me again, that the real competition doesn't even begin until you go out of your own country and community and face the world.
I'm hyped to get better, and i'm way more hyped to do good at MLG Paris, or RoF, whichever the name is going to be :D
Shoutouts:
Rocky: Thanks for making sure i could stay at your place! It was really nice, and i love the boat trip stories :D
Gratz for your placing, i hope you're happy with what you achieved, you've gotten better so consistently, i hope it doesn't stop and you can be a new falcon threat for the top players
Oh, and thanks for reminding me to enjoy Kopenhagen, i've only walked around the city for a bit, but i think I really like it, it might get to the top of my list of places i need to visit.
Mike Haggar: I would've loved to stay at your place again, but i didn't know wether you were free or not, and i remembered getting to the station from your place to be quite a travel. Didn't matter anyway, as i managed to miss 2 trains, but hey, whaddaya know. I'm going to listen to your commentary for sure, hope its hype
I really like your wolf, and i don't even have to mention that your a ****ing amazing guy. All of you swedes should come to a german tournament sometime (eventhough there aren't any in planning, and i don't know wether you travel out of country ^^) Aditional Note: I just talked to my brother, he really liked your commentary and your game-insights. Keep it up!
Android: Damn, not only have you gotten insanely better in melee, your set vs. leffen was amazing, but you also placed higher than me with charizard... which is kind of a let down for me :/ My brother told me i should rewatch your sets and learn from your gimps. Will most definitely do that!
Link-main who's name i seem to be unable to remember: Good matches, your Link is pretty sick. I hope you are aware of Sixxs existance (German Link), maybe you can get together and exchange some knowledge sometime.
Frenchies:
Aska: Yeah, im pretty sure that was the second time you beat me. I'm a bit salty about how the matches went, but good stuff! You seem pretty cool, i dunno why i never got in contact with you before, i'm sure we've been at more than just 2 tournaments at the same time.
Baxon: you're awesome. Thank's for everything, i hope you're not too dissapointed by your placing, but maybe you can step it up again! See you in may at the latest. Hope you had a nice birthday in Gothenburg and you enjoyed your german birthday song :D
Porc: Good to see you, we didn't talk that much, but as always, nostalgia. I really wanted to play you though, have to do that next time!
Salepate: Pretty much the same thing
Dero: It was the first time i really got to talk to you and hang out with you! Everybody told me you were a cool guy, but now i'm most definitely convinced :D I'll see ya in Paris.
Willy: I'm not going to start again if there is another germany vs france crewbattle, i have to break the cycle :D ... ... or am i? I still love playing National crewbattles though, it's always so much fun, even if it's always in the middle of the night
Good stuff!
Tekk: Congratulations for your placing! Really took me by surprise, nice job!
Others:
Ace: Dude, i've really grown to like you man, you're an awesome guy! I'll try and come visit you in amsterdam sometime, maybe in connection to a tournament or something like that. Won't be able to attend Avalon
Thanks for all the cigarettes and helping me out monday morning, i was really frustrated and didn't really know what to do. I missed the second train nonetheless, but at least I managed to not pay much aditional money (only 12€ for a busticket in Germany). Sadly i'll be traveling about 20 hours on the way back now... lol... never again! Oh, another thing... are you interested in playing magic online maybe? I've been thinking about building a deck, as i've told you, and i'd like to try it out before spending some money on it, and having someone to try it out with might motivate me to actually build the deck!
Jeapie: Best falcon in the world. At least the coolest. I love your piano playing, especially on the last day when everyone's way to tired, and then jeapie jumps on stage and performs :D Even if it seems like not alot of people are listening, i'm pretty sure everyone feels like that, love your music.
UK-Crew: It was really awesome having you all at a tournament, you seem like a fun and lively group and an addition to the tourney-scene
Hope to see your faces at more internationals if possible!
Fuzzyness: Dude, why are you hating on PM if you're in the backroom. I know there's alot of flaws in the game design, so go ahead and show them instead of ******** about the game with leffen... Great Job in singles, keep it up!
Prof: I really respect your skill, in PM aswell as in Melee, really really impressive! I think you have what it takes to be a top player in both games, keep up the good work man! Don't forget Melee over your PM success though, melee is still the game that counts. (not to discredit PM)
AlphaDash: You asked me to team with you right? I'm so bad with names.... For some reason every once in a while i'll find 2 names that won't stick and that i'll always mix up. I think one of the two wasn't even attending though, so you know who i'm talking to
Thanks for the request, i just entered with a friend like 30 seconds before you asked, i'd have loved to team with you, i think we could've made a bit of an impact
Sam(?) If thats your name: Nice meeting you, to bad we didn't play :D For some reason there's always one or two persons that i'm eager to do a bit of freeplay against, but it never happens :D (well, actually most of the time its alot more people). Hope to see you at more tourneys with the other rest of you british people.
ministry: Nice to see you again, didn't really expect that
I wish you the best of luck on your lifes-Journey :D If you're ever in germany and need a place to stay, i'd be glad to help you out.
Tonberry: You seemed quite rusty :D I'm still glad i got managed to win though. Are you still playing actively or was attending BEAST more like a one time thing?
Victor: I think you're really good for the time you've played the game seriously! Keep up the good work, and you'll be good really quick! Hope i could tell you something of use.
Kikki: Well, that didn't work out at all
Wasn't a big deal though. Too bad we only got to play like 1 or 2 games, would've liked to play you a bit more, you seem like a nice guy. Your Captain Falcon aerials (and Uptilt, lol) were pretty accurate on sunday! Also hilarious.
MadJ: Shhhhhhhhhhh. Shhhhhhhhhh. Just let go. Don't fight it! Shhhhhhhh.
Doraki: Communication is the key! I was really confused when you just came up to us and pointed on our pan full of bolognese. How are we supposed to know you want to use it, not have some of it? "Talk to 'em!" It helps^^
King Funk: Lol man... i was a little bit hurt inside when you came to our pool and asked for a Stream-match. I was just about to play Over and had just beaten Tonberry 2-0. "hey yomi, i'm looking for a match on stream, who's in your pool?" "well, there's Me, Over, Tonberry and Ace" "ALLRIGHT, TONBERRY AND OVER, come to the stream TV." ... ... ... Lol, wtf. Fine, don't use the match for second seed. Not like i wanna be on stream anyway.
Jinnyw: I like you, you're allright. Great stuf for streaming when UCK wasn't there yet. Just FYI, everyone knew SaltyPlaygorund was arriving on thursday evening, so i don't really see the reason for bashing UCK for it. But i still think its great you tried to help them set up and give tipps. But you gotta see, that they can't really know wether or not you know your stuff, and UCK has invested alot in everything, so don't be too hard on him for not listening to a stranger without anything to show for his experience. I'm sure It'd be really helpful if you could give constructive criticism though! I don't mean to offend you by saying any of this, it's just that i feel like I can see where both sides are coming from on this! See you around, or on your stream, now that i have your twitch account!
In the end, i'm quite unsatisfied with my tourney results, especially in PM, but also a little in Melee. However the whole international experience has really relight my fire, and I hope I can perform better. Top5 at MLG-Paris thingie, here i come! ("I CAN DREAM HAROLD!")
Again, thank you to everyone involved in the Tournament, especially the TOs and all the handy helpers, SaltyPlaygorund, LeFrenchMelee, IrregularJinny, and Shlhoka for holding one heck of a hype-speech :D
