I didn't mean any disrespect Flex.
Much love for the Low - Tier Masta. :) I already know you will pull through. I just don't have faith in the rest of Columbus coming.
None taken; I was being sarcastic. Still, I should be able to bring at least a couple others this time around.

I don't see Will doing so hot either. Derrick on the other hand could probably do alright, but we'll have to see. Columbus could be much better if we actually had better peeps than just X2X and Reflex, because right after them is myself, and I don't claim any skill whatsoever.
I agree with all of this statement.

Yeah next time will have more peeps get out of pools, Columbus shall step it up big time at this!
That'd be sweet.

Still, Columbus is a rather small area when you compare it to most places. I don't really worry about the reputation as an area, so much as individual reputation. I haven't been in any real crew battle, so that's probably why, though. :x

I put it that way because yeah he had a hard pool, but you should never have lost a match to him for one, and for another I can take Prac easily, which has me wondering wtf how did he make it but not I? Then I remember I had Bobby, Reflex, and Carter. Then of course Tsunami and Datman, both who are highly able Falcos. That leaves me and Justin, a Fox and a camping YL. And of course having Bobby there is just a "OK top 3 make it out of pools, Bobby is excluded". Oh and we had the guy that left, Joe.

No disrespect, but I mean come on, I seem to get screwed over in every pool I participate in lol. Hence why I said lucky he got into that particular pool.
Well, I can take some people pretty easily, but that doesn't make me outright better than them. I'm much more mindgame-proficient than technical skill-proficient.

Also, I would think you mean "Okay, top 2 make it out of pools, Bobby and Reflex are excluded." *is shot*

No, I'm not really egotistical. ;)

Let's not argue over such things, though; if you really care about making it in the pools, step your game up. This goes for everyone; I'm not singling Gerbil out. I know I'm not the greatest, but I still say that not being so competitive about things helps me out with things.

It's hard to step up when Wes/Bobby are right there to kick you back down >.> We will have to see, but I still wish I could get lucky just once and not have to sweat so much over whether I make it or not simply because a higher level player is there...

Yo gerbil you sound like a sore loser man. I mean our pool was Me, X2X, Zach, Yoshido, Sam, Dan( TJ), Matt, Prac and sentinal.
So lets just run that list.
Me- I dont want to be a cocky *** but seriously I randomed in pools and still got 3rd.
X2X- Please tell X2X he sucks gerbil.
Zach- Zach has a really smart falco. He was one of the people to place higher than me.
Yoshido- good yoshi player. Has stuff to learn because this was his First tourny but still pretty good.
Sam- He was cool be he was a noob.
Dan (TJ)- very technical falco fox and ganon. this kid isnt terribly smart with his charcters but very technical. This can be enough to win with those three.
Matt- Another technical falco. Pretty smart too.
Prac- I remeber him doing strangly well against some people but then pretty poor against others. He just seemed over all pretty inconsistant.
Sentinal- Uses sheik and fox I think. Pretty good player.
So me x2x zach = easy advance. Then 2 able falcos. Just like your bracket. So suck it up dude.

I think you guys are analyzing my posts wrong here... Let's start over.

No I am not a sore loser. I am quite used to this. Honestly if I didn't want to lose, I wouldn't be involved in Smash in the first place. I'd still be at it with Halo. So please don't think I am acting as a sore loser, I gave my general opinion of one of our newer local players, that was it. We all have to start somewhere, and if I recal correctly, co and me you yourself out right called me out as a noob after my very first tourny even though I had only played for 1 week. But did I care? No not really, I mean yeah I wish that kind of didn't happen, but I moved on. I could honestly care less if I keep losing as long as I keep improving and learning new things. I find Smash to be a lot of fun, very difficult, but fun. I don't know when in the past I got to travel OOS and out of the city almost every other weekend All my old Halo tournies were usually local and ATL. Rarely did I get to leave, so the traveling is also a major bonus to me. So again, not a sore loser lol, just somewhat dissapointed in myself. It'll pass as it always does, it's just this is the first time I've given an opinion about somebody, and have had people react this way...

The part about stepping it up. Meh it's difficult. 'Nough said. Not to sound like I'm *****ing or anything, but I AM kind of used to being able to stomp someone like it's nothing. But this is no longer the same game, and I'm still trying to get used to that. We all have our moments when we just feel like crapping out and going the easy way. I for one refuse to do that. I picked a tough character to learn without knowing that, a new genre of gaming I've never tried, and you know what? It is a hell of a lot of fun.

My opinion on Prac. I meant no insults whatsoever. Sorry if my opinion came out kind of harsh. The way everyone here seems to be taking it is different than what I had intended. Those that actually know me in real life, know that I try and give a mature basis of understanding when there is a need for it. Yeah I joke around a lot, hell half the time I'm not even serious. Again, however you guys are taking it, you're taking it the wrong way. Prac and I are friends, always will be now.

X2X - You suck (That was for co and me)

In a way, being apart of the Smash community is awesome, with the meeting new people who you share interests with. Like you said, it's the best thing about the game....Unless you're playing as Shiek, that's probabbly the best thing about the game. But the meeting people part can put up a good second place. ;)

LOL I hate to be the online jerk that I usually am. Mainly because Gerbil you are a cool guy. But even being around you at tournies you just seem upset about this and that. This was bull**** and that was bull****. I did the same thing at the last tourny. I give reflex props for winning but I really felt like I was the better player he out played in me in that set though. That frustrates me. I was looking too hard for a Fsmash and ended up loosing because of it. Anyway I think everyone has moments like this and most people end up getting called on it. I told zach that I should have beat him at SAV and I said I was better than Marty at that Mcdonalds tourny. Both were kinda offended at the time but everytime sense then I have won my matches against them. I am not a super cocky jerk. I act like in online some times just for fun but in person who honestly thinks I am a jerk? You really do seem to just get annoyed by playing this game and then you make johns about losing and in this case it really sounded like you were feelings bad that Prac was getting recognition and you werent. Maybe you didnt mean it that way but if you look at the way you say things and how much getting better at this game means to you then you can easily see where anyone would get that impression. Anytime you give you opinion about anyone it will be taken to an extreme. It happens with everyone. gerbil I called you a noob because you were a noob. You still are prtty new to the game. I realize its an offensive thing to most people but honestly, as I think you are good about realizing, its more of an experience factor and not much of an insult.

I think Co's a better player than me, too. I agree with all of this statement.

Then again, I'm a fairly humble guy. I don't really care to say that I'm better or worse than anyone else.

Lots of crap happened, I admit. Go, go, Green Greens explosions!

I can accept it though, heh...Oh well. What can you do, y'know?

I need to polish my technical skill. One does not win on mindgames alone.

I'll do what I can to play without natural second thoughts coming up about skill.

LOL Green Greens was a fun match. I enjoy stages that have obsticals because no one wants to give up the low ground. Neither character is willing to cross over the line. Its just funny to watch it play out.

This is part of the reason that I have made it my new counterpick stage. Not only is it advantageous to Bowser, it's fun as heck in any setting.
