Man I told you Planet Zero was iffy. Sorry to hear about this though. I'm assuming John is Emotiongear. I've read his posts online and he's a terribly sketchy and misleading person.URGET NEWs. PLEASE READ AND REsPOND!!!!
Many of you have experienced the AWESOME power of Planet Zero during previous HOBOs and many of you continue to return to the venue and battle it out in Brawl. Well some interesting things have happened in the recent weeks that i need to tell you people about.
Planet Zero recently moved to a new venue(across the street) and has dug itselfs a grave with the fighting game community. Some of you know this some of you dont. I will explain.
1. Did you know that John(the owner) has now made a deal that if ANYBODY brings in outside for or drinks he will called the tow truck guys and have your car hauled off? Its happened already to some. He wants you to buy his drinks/food.
2. Did you know that johns helper(the asian chic) has tried to take money from the pot at several of the HOBOs held at Planet Zero?
3. Did you know that Planet Zero has a LARGE history of not paying its players. MANY MANY times have players claimed 1st-3rd and not recieved a single dime. To this day they still owe players money from MONTHS ago. This has not happened with the smash community, thankfully.
4. Did you know that WHOBO(world hobo) was going to be sponsored by the car company NISSAN in april 2009? Nissan was going to throw out 1000$ on top of whatever pot money the players form at anime matsu. John now lost that contract.......So how am i going to explain to the HIGHLY SKILLED/WELL KNOWN players who already bought passes/plane tickets that the 1000$ which was PROMISED now wont be there. oh and by the way, john didnt tell us the contract backfired.......i had to find it out through another source...which leads me to believe that john was planning for us to take the fall.
5. Now this can be confirmed from MANY MANY MANY other fighting game communities(mvsc2/sf/gg....ect). John does alot of shady shiz. Any thing to make a buck even if its dishonest is ok with him. From this day forward, Neither me or dugfin will ever hold an event at Planet Zero.
So! Having said all of this, THERE WiLL NOT BE A BRAWL TOURNAMENT AT THE ANIME MATSURI IN APRIL 2009! IF YOU HAVE BOUGHT A PASS THROUGH DUGFIN, PLZ CONTACT HER TO GeT A REFUND! IF YOU BOUGHT YOUR PASS FROM SOME ONE OTHER THAN DUGFIN, THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO. For that, i deeply apologize!!!!!!!
WHOBO has now changed to U HOBO(ultimate hobo). The date is now set for March 21st-22nd. Its a 2 day event with melee and brawl! The event is happening just at a different location and date. Some details about UHOBO are on the front page but more will follow in the coming days.
If you have ANY questions or comments, plz post RIGHT NOW or PM me. Also, plz post the date you are having SPRING BREAK. If the majority of you are having spring break at a later date i will attempt to change the UHOBO date.
please drew, ban this man because everytime i read his posts, i die a little inside. i know this isn't an english course, but seriously type out your ****ing words and make a complete sentence! sometimes you give TX a bad name with your ridiculous posts.im not gonna make johns. buttmont sucks.
when is everybodies spring break! i need to know.
Drew, plz get rid of those pics plz.
Go to Final Smash 5 in San Antonioso what happens to the HOBO planned in january? just at a different venue or what? because i was looking forward to one in january and it being at PZ since its 15 minutes from my house. but since that's not going to happen what are the plans?
Look for the thread Tomball Monthlies. They will have a tourney on Jan 3.so what happens to the HOBO planned in january? just at a different venue or what? because i was looking forward to one in january and it being at PZ since its 15 minutes from my house. but since that's not going to happen what are the plans?
Where exactly is PZ located at?2-The asian chic has big *******.
I can gladly do this, being that I host more than smash tournaments and I'm in touch with the SRK community.So PlanetZero (the venue with the badass well kept cabinets and amazing fighter selection) is a fraud?
I'll try to defend the owner for a minute.
1-The owner is smart to not allow outside food in order to make his own profit by allowing customers to enjoy the environment that HE has created. It's called entrepreneurship...don;t hate the player. Hate the game.
2-The asian chic has big *******. Women with provactive wear tend to be a little sketchy. This is written in the book of who to one night stand and who not to one night stand. Collusion happens everywhere...people suck.
3-Where's the evidence of this large history? Give us readers some resources before making that claim. *yes I've heard about it before...but you make it out that it happens at EVERY tournament.
4-This happens. $1k in sponsorship advertising is nothing to Nissan. Perhaps their advertising excecutive declared the sponsorship to be a waste of funds and decided to spend their $ elsewhere. Let it be known that if I knew somethin like that bailed out on me...I would also not be very excited to let the news out. This "john" guy probably has poor character in the first place (as you make him out to be). Even if he has a poor character, he's allowing us to use his venue on a weekend in which he probably nets ~$300-500 based on turnout in venue fees. Not including the fees he generates from playing the cabinets and drinks/food.
5-Again please let us know what resources you have supporting your claim.
Thanks in advance for replying to my points. I'm by no means saying that you and dugfinn shouldn't use their venue...that's your choice. However, I'd like for you to know that the venue is a VERY nice venue to host tournaments at.
Like RT said, you should check out the first Tomball monthly coming up Jan 3rd. Theres a link in my signature =]so what happens to the HOBO planned in january? just at a different venue or what? because i was looking forward to one in january and it being at PZ since its 15 minutes from my house. but since that's not going to happen what are the plans?
You're welcome good sir. Now come to Final Smash 5 in JanuaryKing Mosquito, thank you for doing the necessary. I'm all for banning PZ. A dallas player TotalToanage in MvC2 took 1st at a PZ tourny and was asked to come to them for a "CHECK." Which he never received. More evidence as to why this venue is balls. GL Xyro and Dugfinn for finding an even better venue.
Bump *were there $ brawl tournaments at YULECON?
None at all, sir.Bump *were there $ brawl tournaments at YULECON?
I remember Kensou talking about this when I was at the Whataburger near Planet Zero a few nights before he left for japan. It sounded shady when he was trying to justify it, since when did competitive gaming become a test of character? Someone clearly got cheated out of a spot they deserved. I know he's a very good player but I dunno about being good enough to make a low tier character like chipp good enough to send off to SBO, considering all the other good players who play with much better characters. Here's an interesting read. http://www.mashharder.com/forums/showthread.php?p=72177#post72177.On dustloop, you can learn about a certain GG player who was simply removed and replaced from a GG team that had won a PZ qualifier for SBO. When questioned about the switch, they made up excuses such as "that was never the prize" and "the player was of unfit character to represent Planet Zero"
Who was added to the team that went to SBO? Why it was Kensou, a Planet Zero represenative, a Chipp player that frequents Planet Zero and has been trying to go to SBO for years. Did he qualify? No. But he went anyway, thanks to being friends with the owner!
That should be enough.
Good stuff Stiltzskin. I can imagine a team of captain falcon and jigglypuff going to Japan lookin to score.I know he's a very good player but I dunno about being good enough to make a low tier character like chipp good enough to send off to SBO, considering all the other good players who play with much better characters.
No. Big Bruno is. He's into old school arcades soooo... Chances are, their console tournaments will, for lack of a better word, suck. Also, nothing is cash pot and the prizes are bleh to meh, so it's not worth the entry fee into the con. Word of advice, don't bother..... Although you can always sneak in! *winks*dugg finn are u the hostess of onii con
can u tell me how?No. Big Bruno is. He's into old school arcades soooo... Chances are, their console tournaments will, for lack of a better word, suck.

Edit: I'd score in Japan if I was Capt. Falcon...... Wait! Are we talking about IN tournament?! Oh... Never mind, eh heh...
