GG! LOL

Anyway, Omni, can you provide a list as to who can come tomorrow? Unless you want 10+ people there, you may want to make it now.

Logic and I didn't even see who we had to play next at MLG. We went in blind. It really helped us out.

Also the fact that I didn't know who Kira flax was helped me beat him.

Everyone goes to UMBC on thursday, Steve

just do a weds. session first come first serve. In fact, seems like you might just want to do one a week on that day, that way you could plan for it.

wow...did not expect...maybe I should really forget who people are by name...If I woulda known who he was i prolly woulda been more nervous...
a name is just a name. most important thing to remember is that your opponent is human just like you. you both carry the same potential and restrictions.

gottem

im kinda under pressure here since so many people wanna come at once cuz u guys are lamos.

coney, tko, and takeover get special priority tho for being the most supportive and most consistent in attending.

which leaves 2 slots open. except one of those slots will go to whoever picks up Alan which will probably be Nova.

which leaves one slot open. how many of you are going to UMBC on Thursday?

^^ Truth.

I think Marcus is tagging along for the day tomorrow. Not confirmed yet. But, regardless, I definitely wanted to hit up the Wednesday session... like weeks ago.

Profound sadness at spots filling up. Thursday I've got some stuff to do school-wise.

Edit: I'll take the last spot Omni.

True. That was Thursday. This is now. Not to mention, didn't you announce that you would host a session 4 hours prior to it being held? Watch out dude, don't pull a Chu.

But Joe wants to go.

And I'd feel bad if I went and left out Marcus, who was willing to spend an entire day at College Park bored to death while I had classes JUST so I could take him to your training session.

Oh well! See you guys @ UMBC!

Also, everyone is available Wednesday and Thursday, but Thursday most of us have been doing UMBC ever since you stopped the HTC. And it's a nice space and convenient location. So we probably won't give that up.

And Friday is a "I'm not a smasher" day where people can try being normal.

So yeah. Open up your Mondays and Tuesdays for us. Gawd.

well you said "weeks" so i was just correcting you

i mean two things

1.) stop telling me what to do, fool. i've got things i like to do after work that don't involve smash from time to time like a female, SC2, sleep, etc.

2.) there's not much i can do. i'm opening up Wednesday and i have a limit on the people who can come. that's really all there is to it. im working under a restriction so "but joe wants to go" or "but i'd feel bad if i left marcus" AtE doesn't mean much cuz having one more person over the limit = no more training sessions.

i dont mind if u guys go to UMBC. thats totally legit and cool. i'd be willing to open up Thursday for people who dont want to go all the way up to UMBC since that's a huge distance away which is why i asked.

lobos
freeze
seagull
noid

technically, lobos was first in saying he wanted to come so he'll probably get the last spot which would make it

coney
tko
nova
takeover
lobos

if enough people are interested for Thursday i'll open that date as well

did you just totally ignore my last post :mad:

beg one of those 5 for a spot. im sure lobos would be the most flexible if you're willing to do some "favors" for him :awesome:

also, alan, dont wanna deal with any bs. confirm by this evening if you can really come or not cuz im not entirely convinced

1) "SC2." ROFL. In full agreement.

2) I was referring to the fact that I'm not going if Marcus can't go since it wouldn't be fair to him or your quota. I also noticed that Joe wanted to go, and therefore figured he could take the last spot instead of the two of us.

But, looking further back, Lobos did call it first so it's only fair he gets it.

Wasn't telling you what to do. Chillax.

Finally, real talk (don't take this for telling you what to do), this last minute "grab your spots while you can!" while "oh but these three are guaranteed" bull**** is stupid. We all understand you have a busy schedule, but it wouldn't hurt to plan ahead (you used to do that 5-day forecast. What happened?). If you don't want to open up more days and you can't open up more spots, that's fine and we respect that, but telling us a session is going to happen the day before (or hours before like last week) is obviously going to 'cause a rush in demand. And while having people guaranteed is fair, since they do support HTC the most, in addition to the 5-man limit... it just makes things complicated. We all love you if you haven't noticed (and you're the only high-level MK in MD.) Learn to share the love (and MK.)

yeah, i greatly appreciate the offer steve (yeah, ima start calling you that) but i don't know if i can accept a permanent spot. i love these things but i also wanna share them with the rest of the community. they did a lot for me, i'd like to see others improve as much as i did...on top of that ima be a lot busier soon anyway so, doesn't matter

either way, i'll be there tomorrow

to be honest these things aren't really like any other smashfest i've been to. it's less technical and more mental. maybe just because it's omni and i regard him very highly and he plays two of my worst matchups, but it's absolutely superb training for me to be able to come against two difficult matchups with a great player and have the ability to think, relax, calm down when frustrated, etc. these sessions are a different environment entirely, one i value greatly.

if more people come into this with a clear head and open mind, i think we'll see a ton of improvement in the region

well i kinda just rejumpstarted this. i use to do the 5-day forecast because i didnt have SC2, a female, and im going to the gym more often so im trying to get a grasp of my own schedule first.

i dont wanna hear your bull****, Noid. *BANNED FROM FUTHER HTC's*

nah, you know i feel you dude. and i do owe it to md/va to get my MK to that level so ya'll can piss on any MK that isn't me. and since korn never wants to do friendlies/sandbags, mero is a thug, neo's a marth ***, june lives in NoWhere, VA, and tant isnt hungry enough i guess that just leaves me

If the same three people are always guaranteed spots whenever they wanna come that's stupid.
nah it's not gonna be the same 3 people. you know me. ive ran enough HTC's to show that i dont discriminate and these sessions are open for all. just if im gonna hold one this week i do want to get preferences to certain people for at least one session. it's not a permanent thing at all

yeah, i greatly appreciate the offer steve (yeah, ima start calling you that) but i don't know if i can accept a permanent spot. i love these things but i also wanna share them with the rest of the community. they did a lot for me, i'd like to see others improve as much as i did...on top of that ima be a lot busier soon anyway so, doesn't matter
stfu, CONEY. imma get in that *** tomorrow. and when i 3 stock you
