Alright guys, time for a new interview to keep this thread fresh. This time we got one coming from none other then Joe "The Price" Fool 
Nickcam says:
Question 1: Gimme your comments on the Directional influence used during the set by tinman
Joe says:
I think his DI was perfect, or at least it would be if his sticks were turned 180 degrees.
You know, like up instead of down.
Nickcam says:
So kinda like full circle di
Joe says:
I don't know what kind of DI he was attempting, but he definently acheived something spectacular.I couldn't DI that wrong if I tried.
Nickcam says:
Definitely. Okay question 2: Who did you predict was gonna win the set, and how good is tinman at blind select
Joe says:
I was pretty confident that hobbs was gonna win, since I knew of his plan to cp with marth, but the fair kill at 68% pretty much sealed the deal for me.As for the blind selecting, my theory is that blind character selection has to do with clutch, since Tinman seems to have completely no idea what it is.
Nickcam says:
Wow good connection, i never thought of it like that. So in summary, no clutch, no di, no idea what blind select is.Alright lets jump to the next question: Hype's di wasn't so godlike during the set, Do you think that was cause of his nervousness or cause of the z-axis
Joe says:
Well Hobbs had earplugs on so he has no crowd related johns, leaving only the z-axis to be the cause of his weak DI. I actually think that he didn't abuse the z-axis enough. Iliad has proved to us that constant down dodging is a very pro technique; If Hobbs used the z-axis as well as Iliad does, maybe his DI would have been better.
Nickcam says:
On the subject of iliad Question 4: Who do u think will win, iliad a.k.a Mr. Mother ****ing tippz son or Tinman a.k.a Mr. What is clutch
Joe says:
I think that the match would go something like this: Iliad down dodges 10x in a row, while Tinman stands beside him spamming, but constantly missing fsmash. Then, with his perfect spacing, Iliad will tipper Tinman, who ends up perfectly DIing down and away from the stage, dying at 0%. This same thing happens 6 times in a row, and Iliad will win with 2 jv4's. You can quote me on that.
Nickcam says:
Okay final question: What is your own personal definition of clutch
Joe says:
Clutch is when you pull off an amazing 0 - 50% combo, like dthrow to dthrow to dthrow to dthrow to dthrow to dthrow.

I get knocked out of EVERY SINGLE TOURNY by Joe. Seriously, go check.
I guess it just goes to show that only sauga can beat sauga.

hmmm, i would think people would understand what happened after reading my interview, but joe still answered questions the way he did
how do u get the fact that i don't know what a double blind pic is, i asked hype to do so, and he refused, and nickcam told us to start the match?
also here are some conflicting ideas, i know what clutch is, prove to me that i dont (meaning that u have to prove on a knowledge basis that I dont know what it is, not a performance basis, cause i know what all yall bast@rds are gonna use) prove to me that I cant define it, if i cant show it, doesnt mean i don't know what it is, and how does it make sense that players worse then me know what it is?
if u can find 2 other recent sets where i had bad, then I'll admit to having bad DI, otherwise, if it happened in 1 set, its not enough to influence a whole thing where I automatically have awful DI
and finally, its not that I didnt want to fight hype at all, just not that early, if I lost to him later on, then it would have been fine with me.

Proof:

If you did infact know what clutch means, you would know that you don't even need to play brawl to understand the term.
QED
There is no Clutch in brawl!

Tin Man, I'd take the bad DI as a compliment of sorts. If you have terribad DI and still managed to place 4th at Powns and have close matches with players, well, that speaks volumes about your game. Work on your DI and **** **** harder for next time. Then will you finally understand "What is Clutch?"
baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more

LOL tinman takes lanowen's statement as an excuse to not find clutch. Pretty dam pro. Anyways tinman i dunno what to tell you, you either know clutch or u dont. It's clear by trying to prove u know clutch that u actually have no clue what it is. Clutch is godlike but getting mad over not knowing what it is a freakin hillarious.

how did i try to prove that I know clutch?
this is where the flaw in ur intelligence really shows, because u simply dont understand that i know what clutch is
Wow, I pull that combo off like every game. Does this mean I'm clutch O.o

joe does it with one bird.

Helping tinman find clutch part 1.Tinman, cheer up bro, I went from having the 2nd WORST DI (next to kingace, or maybe even tied), to having top 7 DI in ALL of Canada and everyone here will agree.
I also single handedly take people on 2 vs 1 or 3 vs 1 and end up WINNING, I went from placing top 3 with no first placings ever for my first 5 months to getting 8 straight first place finishes.
I get owned by joe in winners finals, basically clutch abandoned me, so I had to go outside and find it again, no seriously I did, and guess what? I 3-0'd kingace in LFS with a 3 stock, and 3-1 joe first set of GFS and 3-0 2nd set.
I went from rank 6, to 3, to 2, to 1 in my first 4 updates on the PR.
I beat Ambrose 3 sets to 1 back when I didn't know what a "mindgame" was
Oh, one more thing, I'm the first African American to be first on the GTA pr in history..
Now that is clutch... Wasn't that hard to find, Sauga, PND, and Iliad helped me find it btw

I have a dream that my four little children will one day brawl in a region where they will not be judged by the colour of their skin, but by the content of their character...oh wait.

lolololol, too good hype.
Doc is clutch, that is for sure. Now the question is just how clutch is he? Enough to beat ally? This is what we shall see at LBT : )
EDIT: Talking about character content, I was looking at some old GTA posts and i just realized something
Tinman should go MK just like mikey. Apparently it helps you find what is clutch.
Iliad
Smash Lord
mikey's mk won't save him against my Link.
Yeah I said it.
Besides, Culex is his kryptonite, he'll lose no matter what.

Ask Holy / Joe about PND / Ottawa DI, yo

Olimar is alergic to clutch Tinman, we've been through this, he dies at 68% to F AIR by Marth ^ _ ^

Ally, Mikey, Nickcam, PND, SG, Fool/Doc, Decoy/Hype
Are you like... Asking me to prove my DI is worthy to you?, cause' I will ^.^ <3
And to be COMPLETELY honest, and I know I'll get flamed for this, my DI is sometimes on par with nickcam, and usually above SG and fool, in fact, SG has fantastic SDI, but DI I think he's actually below fool and I, we live till like 160 + with light characters, nickcam lives till ridiculously long with heavies, as does mikey/ Ally, but top 3 is pretty clinched for now, I believe I'm 4th, 5th, or 6th and I'll prove it.
