I really really really wish I could have gone.

Really.

Edit: On the bright side, I spent my day doing ladder matches so I guess it's cool. Got back into top 32 and changing my name to Colorado later today.

Now that I've had a night to think on it more rationally, real talk Dan:

I dunno if I did something you felt you had to get revenge for, or you felt I didn't deserve to be in the tournament because I asked to participate late. Still, as a tournament player, and from my perspective (and I'm sure anyone else's in the world,) that was a really ****ty thing to do last night. And I feel as a tournament director, you should feel an inkling of remorse, feeling bad, anything. I really don't feel like I got that from you and I can't explain how upset I am at you, even as a person in general, right now.

If you think poorly of me, get at me please. If you felt I deserved to be, almost, double-peaced without losing, get at me. Even for my opponent who was DQ'd that you called for ONCE over the microphone, I felt that was real crap too. I know you said time was an issue, but the quality you sacrificed is... almost scary.

From right now, I am boycotting Zournament. I admit, it's a drop in the bucket, but it's how I'm going to express my disappointment. I'm sure Dan and I will end up getting it talked out. But from a tournament director, I've never seen so many corners, and people, cut.

Ya my hype and care for Splat all disappeared when Dan changed 2 out of 3 to 1 match eliminations. That really killed everything for me. Which is a shame because I was looking forward to this for a while :/
Dan apologized about his irrational outbreak and I have forgiven him(everyone's human after all). But that still didn't change what that did which was kill my enthusiasm for the tourney and cause frustration. Especially when I got sent to losers bracket after losing 1 match vs DTL. Even though they changed it back later it was still frustrating.
Oh well
Hope you maintain your composure a little better with Zournament Dan :(



All in all I had fun. I loved playing Undies, Dylan and Tim! I played lots of games with them and we had a good time. I wish I could have played Meno more than just a half a match but meh maybe next time. Let me know when you guys are up for something. I really wanna play you guys a lot more. Also playing Kirby vs Snake with Okami was really fun! I lurve that MU.

Even though it's unimportant, I think(?) I got 5th. Fun times, even though most of us stopped caring halfway through winner's bracket.

Johns: I left with Tony's ride before I played my set with Meno, because I was gonna get smacked by my parents if I didn't get home before 9:30. Sucks, cuz I lurve playing Manny, 'specially in tourney. Whenever we play, we have good matches, each and every one. He plays smart

This tournament was truly outrageous. Truly, truly, truly outrageous.

I had fun though :D
For the most part.
That "set" with Bees was bull****.
Meno beat me first game. I was like ;(
I felt the need to double 3 stock the first random I played. I need to not do that but I have no idea how you guys hold back. I mean...everybody wants to get a 3 stock, even if it's not really an accomplishment.
GFs with Tim were pretty good I guess. I was pretty tired of playing at that point, but not like Tim who just went through a bunch of people straight before playing me.
I won...an Xbox fight stick? No idea what I'm going to do with it...lol. Tim won a gift certificate to a game store he'll never go to.
R1 I played Manny. Game 3 really close set. I won on RC (yeeeeaaaaahhhhhh!!!) and he CPd Picto and got relatively gayed.
Then I played...Bees? I think. Game one was pretty average. I think we both played decently, but we were definitely not in the right mindset after certain events... And the fact that we only played one game... was ridiculous.
Then I played Peter. Even though it was changed back to best of three, he was content with one match. lol
It's almost like there was a vibe of just wanting to get out of there...hmmmm
Then I played Okami. Games would have been much closer if he didn't try to back air my MK offstage like 08 Peter.
Then Tim. So I mean, I got to actually play good people and this could have been a lot more fun. We have some talented players that with betters means could be quite legit. I'm definitely glad I went because of...I dunno I still enjoyed it. And I'm happy I got to hang with everybody.
Fuuuuuuuuck Tony explaining that awful movie. I was not in the right mindset to here about a gruesome serial killer. I liked that other show we watched though.
So yeah, if you didn't go, you definitely missed something, but I'm not 100% on what.

No I didn't <_<"
I just didn't do as well as I would have liked to. But like I said that rule change killed my mindset. I was just ready to get through the tourney so I could play friendlies.

Okami took game one from Tim for such a dumb reason...lol
Tim was in the lead and on a newish stock. Then the windmill comes and through some grenade fsmash bull**** Tim gets raaaaaaped. He had that game lol. But Okami did really well and they went to last hit.

edit: So I namesearched on youtube and found an old video Nite put up:

The tag, "DTL is tight" made me happy :)

Skimmed over a bit just now, and still super tired, but I'll read through it all.


No there were a lot of politics that screwed up the time at SPLAT. the time coordinator thought that smash and sc2 could run in less than 2 hours. Kept telling her that it was going to last much longer than that, but she stood by her decision and forced me to do it at 5:30. Ended up *****ing at me because it was taking too long. Pretty much was with a double edged sword.


Kore later when I'm out of bed and out of schlock forms nearly dying last night

I don't think I'm fun to play in BB, lol. Everyone leaves when I start doing some matches on a setup. Therefore I didn't get to play Jamaal or Tim very much. I did play Deets a lot though, so that was cool. Tim played me for a little bit, but not as much as I wanted.

A message to the BB pros in CO: You owe it to me, zaj, and all the other BB scrubs to **** me in BB so we can get better.
Well maybe you don't.


I'm really sorry you were so stressed out at zournament Dan. But to be fair I thought it was totally badass when you crushed that soda can against your forehead.

Meh... it's fine; **** happens.

It was the only thing near me that I could crush or use to cause pain or what not. Didn't cause enough pain to actually calm me down; that's why I kept punching the table.

If the wall was there, I probably would have broken my hand again.

Wow... lapses of my old life hit me now.

When I heard you walking away and say, "**** this tournament", I really did felt bad. I still do. Couldn't do much at that point though... Or I couldn't think of anything to do to make it up to you because I knew I screwed up.

Not at all; I still see you as a good friend that I can talk to (whenever I catch you online).

I didn't want to do it either, but with Terri and Matt breathing down my neck, I didn't want any more confrontation with them anymore that night.

The quality was ****. I'll admit that.

I'll try and catch you online later tonight, Jamaal. I never thought I'd be doing it either, but I suppose under so much pressure, I broke.

Terri pretty much ordered me to do it. I don't want you all to blame her though because ultimately it was my decision, so continue to get at me.
