Its not like we planned to arrive 5 hours late or anything because thats what you're implying.Or we need people who just show up in time.. Why do people even think the tournament/host will wait for them :/.....
We had NO CHOICE.You should at least realise it's stupid to pick up CJ with all of you instead of one.
No.I think an explanation is quite reasonable actually. It only takes one post. =/
It had nothing to do with protein (even if that might've been 1 of the things he bought).Aniolas: Regarding Sunday, it actually was a bigger issue you and Helios went to get 'protein' and took about an hour to come back. However, weak-kneed Jeffz0r shouldn't have let you go in the first place.
Why? Because it is one of the main reasons this tournament sucked so much. And apparently, it isn't clear to anyone.No.
Why?
Because I dont feel like typing something I've already explained to 40 people.
Besides, seeing as everyone is just making up there own stories on their own I guess you'll just believe what you want to.
no explanation = assumptions*note*
Yes I'm really offended by you guys implying I'm stupid (taking alot of people to pick up CJ) and an *** (arriving at the tournament that late) when I couldn't have done anything to make the situation better.
Helios said they were going to get protein and would be back in half an hour (run, while Aniolas can't even run atm). They took over an hour to get back to the venue. Also, eat before you leave, or plan it so you have it quickly at the tournament.It had nothing to do with protein (even if that might've been 1 of the things he bought).
We didn't eat a single thing before we left, I was starving at the tournament and wanted to go and buy something aswell but they already left.
Fine, be offended then. I just wanna know why you did that. I really fail to see why you had no choice. Just spend one post on it and I (and most others) will be happy.Yes I'm really offended by you guys implying I'm stupid (taking alot of people to pick up CJ) and an *** (arriving at the tournament that late) when I couldn't have done anything to make the situation better.
Assuming something like that about someone you've known for one and a half year now with a clean record?no explanation = assumptions
I had no food @ my houseAlso, eat before you leave, or plan it so you have it quickly at the tournament.
Keep failing then.Fine, be offended then. I just wanna know why you did that. I really fail to see why you had no choice. Just spend one post on it and I (and most others) will be happy.
I'm not talking about Saturday, I understand it was crappy that you had to pick up Luma all of a sudden plus CJ. So no not about Saturday (Even though it did suck majorly and you can't blame people for not being happy with it.) :/Its not like we planned to arrive 5 hours late or anything because thats what you're implying.
What?
You wanted me to be like "maaaaan Chris, c0mp, CJ, Luma, everything went so bad, we might aswell NOT go anymore because alot of people are pissed".
I'm pretty sure MORE people would've been upset if there was a tournament without CJ, Me, Helios & c0mp...so what the **** did you guys expect us to do? Really?
*note*
If you say "show up on time" then your implying we did this on purpose again.
Quote from A-D.You can't blame everything on CJ if you don't even know the half of what happened
I think a lot of people would be upset if we didn't showed up at all.
Quote from A-D.
Ik heb geen flauw idee wie jij bent maar te laat is te laat. Er is geen reden om zo erg te laat te komen. Ook al zit het soms niet mee, als je optijd weg gaat dan kom je nooit 5 uur te laat. Als jij wel weet hoe het is gegaan dan mag jij mij dat even uitleggen. Zo niet, kop dicht.
Amsah,
I am not blaiming you, it's not like you want to arrive 5 hours too late. However, the fact that you could still participate in the tournament is showing that Jeffz0r is a failure as a host.
You all screwed up the tournament, I would have you disqualified inmediately. Since when are you the 'main part' of the tournament? The best thing to figure this out is to vote during the tournament asking the question: 'Should we wait for Amsah etc. or should we disqualify them?' This question could be brought up on Saturday from Jeffz0r but he was to chicken to make hard dissicions.
Extreme example:Amsah, it is not really about the point you had bad luck, you explained the situation abit to me at the tourney, though it went a bit fast for me at the moment, it is the fact that you guys still could participate after being 5 hours too late.
How is it unfair judgement?I already said that if it was for anyone else, it wouldn't be the case and we would be disqualified, it is rather the unfair judgement that happened.
If it were my tournament, I would have disqualified you guys, not because I blame you, but I have to keep the tournament running and look what happened, you had to finish singles the day after, which is ratehr stupid, considering we should have started at 12 tops.
Ofcourse you'll assume things.I am not here to offend you and appearantly you do not want to explain what happened. Marc already said, no explanation means assumptioning, which is completely in their right.
Even if I knew you for 6 years, I would think you were just slagging off to get to the tournament, cause all I have been told is "they are underway", "they are still at Utrecht", etc etc.
If you think I'd think the same as you and do the same as you did you really don't know me at all.So do not blame us for thinking something else, you would have done the exact same thing if it were about somebody else.
Also, it is stupid to pick up a guy at the airport at 11:30, you are already late by then, also..it is even more stupid to take a plane to a tournament on the day of the tournament, arriving too late in the country in question, also the lack of communication was another critical issue.
See above example for your "Late is late" argument.Ik heb geen flauw idee wie jij bent maar te laat is te laat. Er is geen reden om zo erg te laat te komen. Ook al zit het soms niet mee, als je optijd weg gaat dan kom je nooit 5 uur te laat. Als jij wel weet hoe het is gegaan dan mag jij mij dat even uitleggen. Zo niet, kop dicht.
See above example again for your argument.Amsah,
I am not blaiming you, it's not like you want to arrive 5 hours too late. However, the fact that you could still participate in the tournament is showing that Jeffz0r is a failure as a host.
I sure as hell wouldn't have disquallified you if you were with 4 foreigners (thnx for correcting me Luma).You all screwed up the tournament, I would have you disqualified inmediately. Since when are you the 'main part' of the tournament? The best thing to figure this out is to vote during the tournament asking the question: 'Should we wait for Amsah etc. or should we disqualify them?' This question could be brought up on Saturday from Jeffz0r but he was to chicken to make hard dissicions.
No, then they would've MISSED the tournament.So what, if someone is late by 2 days, we have to cancel the whole tourney ?
Luister, de quote: 'Ik heb geen flauw idee wie jij bent....' is bedoeld voor A-D. Dat is iemand hier op smashboards. Leer lezen.1. Who are you, does any1 know you exist? I've neva heard of you! Which means you must be a nobody!! Amsah is famous in the Smash community, along with myelf Helios CJ and others. We have earned the right for a little leway on certain things that occur throughout the day.
simply put *** YOU WHOEVA YOU ARE.
Reffie has been former dutch champ and has played for many years now, so saying he doesn't exist is useless because a lot of people know him1. Who are you, does any1 know you exist? I've neva heard of you! Which means you must be a nobody!! Amsah is famous in the Smash community, along with myelf Helios CJ and others. We have earned the right for a little leway on certain things that occur throughout the day.

Yeah, this must've been the first tournament where there were more tv's than cubes. :DWhat I REALLY LIKED ABOUT THE TOURNEY ...ENOUGH TV's ENOUGH CHAIRS PEOPLE WERE HAVING FUN WITH SMASH .
You are right, none. Cause people are usually on time, at least I remember the days at Silver's. If things were organised better between all of you, then you would not get in troubles. It is partially your fault.Nihonjin said:How is it unfair judgement?
How many people in the dutch community ever arrived 5 hours late?
As far as I remember (from my 1.5 years tourney experience), none, so who are you comparing us with?
Anyone with a normal functioning brain who hasn't been living alone under a rock in aghanistan should realise that disquallifying people from other countries is.....
Lets just say, if you wanted to disquallify anyone, it should've been me.
Because technically speaking (even though I couldn't help it) its my fault.
You know that assuming means thinking a logical solution to problem in question. If you are in Amsterdam, than we would assume you will be in Den Bosch in 2 hours tops, but you took 5 hours...so yeah, people would think negative, cause how else could you take so long, considering people would not think of something so farfetched you had to endure.Nihonjin said:Ofcourse you'll assume things.
Does that mean you have to assume something bad?
My money got stolen at a tournament, when I couldn't find it at first, I figured I misplaced it.
When all the evidence pointed to Ivo taking it, I still didn't think it was him because I've known Ivo for quite a long time now.
I was assuming quite alot of things, but none of them were as negative as yours when it was about something alot more serious.
So stop blaming the fact that I didn't explain anything for your assumptions, they have nothing to do with one another.
No, I do not know you at all, nor do you know me. Does that matter? Am I less human if I do not know you? Should I know you because you are Amsah? I never had problems with you, I want to keep it that way, casuse I see no reason to do so, but appearantly you do not accept how everyone is thinking.Nihonjin said:If you think I'd think the same as you and do the same as you did you really don't know me at all.
It was either arrive late (wich I told Jeffz0r atleast a month in advance) or not arrive at all, seeing as people wanted to play CJ you should be happy he decided to come anyway as he was one of the main attractions of this tournament.
