Oregon Smash Community [OSC] - Oregon's official Smash Community est. 2005

[cmin]

turn that frown upside down

edit: er i mean i'll be a pianist if you guys need me to be for corvallis. and yeah justin binx i try calling you today just wanna say sorry for being a douchebag but yeah george is gonna come by my house then i'll come and get you and we'll play at my house cuz i think we can agree my house is a better venue

 

[t!MmY]

The reason Oregon never had a PR before is because there really wasn't enough players to warrent it. But now tournament attendance has increased and new players are getting better.

I was passively opposed to an Oregon PR - by not getting one started - but there's no denying the interest in having one now.

 

[joshisrad]

NOOO MINH
I'm Oregon's pianist :< :< :<

 

[cmin]

ok i'll be a guitarist cept i dont know how to play that thing. i'll just be THE SMASHLIST yeeyuh

 

[Balloon]

I highly disagree with the idea of "PR matches". The way its always been done is far more appealing and interesting. Panelists aren't just there to "observe matches".

I disagree with Rage being a panelist at this point.

I agree with Binx being a panelist at this point.

What about VenusGospel for a panelist? Does anyone know of how he would feel about the idea? Maybe he would be a bit more active around here if he were one.

 

[Jem.]

I kind of agree with Bart. In WA, I've had to be in PR Pools the last two Gameclucks, and it's pretty boring imo.

 

[cmin]

All in favor of a Power Ranking say aye

nay

 

[Ronin686]

Don't care.

 

[Peach Masta]

I am for one

 

[Wikipedia]

Here here!

 

[joshisrad]

nay
also wtf Bart, Rage is better than both VG and Binx, and saying "if x is a panelist[which requires they are considerably skilled and active] then maybe that'll be incentive for them to not be terrible and inactive" doesn't make any sense XD

 

[Digital Watches]

I'm ambivalent.

While perhaps any negative sentiment on the issue can be attributed to the celerity with which I'd ostensibly descend in such a heirarchy, given the myriad of disparate and incongruous interests (including but not limited to the principal game in which I travail to cultivate my aptitude, as well as affairs of my education) which serve to detract from my further improvement and have become all the more ubiquitous of late, I nevertheless abstain.

 

[joshisrad]

Calm down dude.

 

[VenusGospel]

nay
also wtf Bart, Rage is better than both VG and Binx, and saying "if x is a panelist[which requires they are considerably skilled and active] then maybe that'll be incentive for them to not be terrible and inactive" doesn't make any sense XD

Hmm, not sure what's going on much, but first of all, I beat Rage at SF:E, and as Tudios said, i am getting much better, still... You don't have any reason to say he's better unless it's been proven. Second, i'm not sure what a panelist is xD, someone care to explain?

Oh yeah, and if this is about the best smashers in portland, I'd have to say Riot hands down

 

[Rage.]

Little off topic here but Bart looks like John Mayer in this video
http://youtube.com/watch?v=Kr42ZXpmwH0&mode=related&search=
I love you Bart

anyways, It seems like there is a even amount of people that want and do not want a PR and everyone cant decide.
People that want it should make it and decide stuff
people that dont should do something else

VG we were suppose to hook up and smash last wensday but it didnt happen
we need to get together and smash
you too Joshisrad
and Cmin

 

[joshisrad]

"I beat Rage at SF:E, and as Tudios said, i am getting much better, still... You don't have any reason to say he's better unless it's been proven."

THIS is also why the PR will be ********.

 

[Digital Watches]

Calm down dude.

 

[Jem.]

VG isnt bad. I think he is better than rage imo, but thats just me.
Work on that fox, son!

 

[Rage.]

All this talk about who is better than who.
cant we just settle this with a 20 dollar MM?
VG?

 

[Balloon]

It's a good thing your opinion in smash counts for nothing, Josh.

Again, from my experience with both players, VenusGospel would make a better panelist.

There are clear reasons why Riot should not be a panelist. No offense intended by this, Riot.

A PR won't be ********, and if you think it would be, then feel free to not take part in the organization of it all.

Oh, and Rage, I get told I look like him all the **** time. I work at Blockbuster, so at least once per day someone will mention to me "oh man you look EXACTLY like that one musician guy..." and I have to explain to them that I am in fact him.

Edit: Also, Binx has proven quite a few times that he has great knowledge of both the game and its players. Being a panelist isn't at all about being GOOD at the game. Instead, being good at the game is something that comes along with KNOWLEDGE of the game.

OH YEAH! Also, one last thing I want to set straight is that Grants Pass does NOT have an apostrophe. It bugs the hell out of me when people use one in it xD.

 

[joshisrad]

Bart. lol. Take a word from Digi and calm down. If my "opinion in smash" means nothing, what hope could you possibly have for your own? :D
And when did Riot come into this? O_o
Good argument for the PR not being ******** by the way.

PS, I'm not going to trash talk VG or anything, and no offense dude, but you know.

 

[Rage.]

GG at Bart for look like John Mayer

I want a PR, I think it would help the Oregon Community.
but I dont care THAT much if im a panelist.
I think I would make a good panelist because I think I know the game pretty well and what adds up to what
but if Binx wants to be a panelist or VG then thats fine

 

[Digital Watches]

Bart. lol. Take a word from Digi and calm down. If my "opinion in smash" means nothing, what hope could you possibly have for your own? :D

Man, Josh, you get offended way too easily.

 

[joshisrad]

Calm down bro. I'm not offended. You're offended because you're laughing. SHEESH man. Just calm down :o

 

[Balloon]

Bart. lol. Take a word from Digi and calm down. If my "opinion in smash" means nothing, what hope could you possibly have for your own? :D

Good argument for the PR not being ******** by the way.

The hope for my opinion in smash is that I actually know my ****, whereas you have never seemed to demonstrate any sort of knowledge of the game at all, let alone SHOW UP TO EVENTS IN YOUR COLLEGE'S **** CITY.

VenusGospel said he thought Riot should be a panelist, unless I misinterpreted his post.

I wasn't trying to argue one way or the other on why a PR list would or wouldn't be ********. I don't know why you took it as that, unless it's just because you're way too argumentative of a person. It's clear that when I say "A PR won't be ********" it's an expression of my opinion on the subject. I go on to say that you can feel free to NOT participate while we go ahead and make one anyway. I guess I have to say it again, eh?

Feel free not to participate in the creation of a PR list.

 

[VenusGospel]

I'm kinda confused, still no one has told me what a panelist is, and I assumed it was best in the region, but i guess i was wrong, that's what i meant by Riot, he is good, thats where he came up...

And about that money match Rage, i need a job xD, though we should totally smash sometime.

So once again, what is a panelist? I may be up for it if it's something i'm interested in

Edit: oh yeah Jem., i have been, trust me, all in good time, Tudios likes and hates my wave shines apparently

 

[Rage.]

How about a bowl match?
if you catch my drift?

 

[Balloon]

A panelist is someone who helps determine the Power Rankings list. You know, who has what place in Oregon's rankings.

 

[joshisrad]

The hope for my opinion in smash is that I actually know my ****, whereas you have never seemed to demonstrate any sort of knowledge of the game at all, let alone SHOW UP TO EVENTS IN YOUR COLLEGE'S **** CITY.

To start, me showing up to events in my own city is irrelevant.
It certainly is easy for us to praise ourselves and demean others, isn't it? Maybe you should reconsider yourself as position for panelist. I don't believe I've ever even met you let alone been given any opportunity to prove my worth to you, which I wouldn't care about anyway. But besides that, I invite you to think about the implications of the whole self praise shpeel I just gave you.

VenusGospel said he thought Riot should be a panelist, unless I misinterpreted his post.

So you weren't talking to me then? I thought you were. Cause I never suggested Riot being a panelist and that didn't make sense to me.

I wasn't trying to argue one way or the other on why a PR list would or wouldn't be ********.

Right, you said "A PR won't be ********, and if you think it would be, then feel free to not take part in the organization of it all."

I don't know why you took it as that, unless it's just because you're way too argumentative of a person. It's clear that when I say "A PR won't be ********" it's an expression of my opinion on the subject. I go on to say that you can feel free to NOT participate while we go ahead and make one anyway. I guess I have to say it again, eh?

We've all been bantering on the subject and there are two sides to it. You tried to counter me by saying "A PR won't be ********" with no support to it, in effect starting an argument with me, so I thought I'd be a cute little prick and point it out. Makes sense, yeah?

Feel free not to participate in the creation of a PR list.

When people actively dislike a candidate for presidency, they don't just sit out and not participate. They speak their mind. And although their mind doesn't matter in that example(electoral college), it's the same principle for other protests and such things.

 

[joshisrad]

lol, I just got the "bowl match" thing XD
Yeah Johnny I'm in Eugene now though dude. My house is ****ing perfect for parties though, and "Kefka" and I are living together along with other people. Smashfests are very much a possibility here and I will be having them. So just get Minh to pick you up and Chris and whoever else

ALSO guys I need big time video gamer opinion here. Mega Man icon or Cloud icon? I'm digging them both right now and I don't really like one more than the other. Although MM3 is my favorite game. Sam questioned the Mega Man icon so that's one for Cloud. GO

 

[Rage.]

Sweet
Yeah I would have to get Minh to drive me down there.
Whos Kefka?

 

[VenusGospel]

Lol you're on Rage xD

Perhaps i'll start going to the bi weeklies, why not, next one's on the 6th if i'm not wrong.

 

[joshisrad]

The other Eugene-bound Josh. "Ronin"(Sam)'s bro. He mains FF6, and sometimes Marth.

 

[Rage.]

Lol you're on Rage xD

Perhaps i'll start going to the bi weeklies, why not, next one's on the 6th if i'm not wrong.

haha alright
Yeah if I go to that torney we should actually dollar MM or something
Your Fox Vs Mine?
eh eh

 

[Balloon]

k, first paragraph is pretty dumb since we have met and played on two separate occasions.

No, I wasn't talking to you about Riot. It was a statement outside of you. In fact, the only part of that whole post that was even meant for you was the sentence that had your NAME in it. You're really that full of yourself, aren't you?

I don't understand the point in the second quote, seeing as how it's redundant.

I didn't try to counter YOU. I was stating my opinion. It wasn't a ****ing counter. God ****, why do you take everything to be directed specifically at YOU? Are you seriously constantly thinking about yourself?

I didn't say don't speak your mind. I said don't participate. Pretty big difference, especially since a PR list can be decided without physically affecting anybody in our small *** community.

Seriously Josh, every post I read by you reeks of exaggerated self-worth. In fact, I can remember one specific time where, out of nowhere, you thought that Tudios was referencing you when he was actually making a joke about something that you had absolutely no knowledge of (the wig I wear in tourneys sometimes). You proceeded to post a picture of yourself, or at least what I remember you looking like.

Get the **** over yourself.

Anyway, this is the end of any and all discussion between Josh and I on this subject.

For those who want a PR, great, let's make it happen. For those who don't, great, don't involve yourself. It doesn't matter to me.

 

[VenusGospel]

haha alright
Yeah if I go to that torney we should actually dollar MM or something
Your Fox Vs Mine?
eh eh

Sure i'm up for it, though i'm prolly gonna end up camping a lot to avoid your chain grabs, same scenario with cmin i guess, i dunno, i just hate chain grabs and don't ever wanna do it, it's not fun for me, i like just beating the shi t out of people

 

[joshisrad]

k, first paragraph is pretty dumb since we have met and played on two separate occasions.

Oh, my mistake. GUESS YOU WEREN'T IMPORTANT ENOUGH FOR ME TO REMEMBER LOLZ

No, I wasn't talking to you about Riot. It was a statement outside of you. In fact, the only part of that whole post that was even meant for you was the sentence that had your NAME in it. You're really that full of yourself, aren't you?

I'm pretty cool and I know it. But I'm not full of myself. Besides, the parts before that were directed at me and you never signified that you switched speaking targets. Why don't you like me?

I don't understand the point in the second quote, seeing as how it's redundant.

oic
no u?

I didn't try to counter YOU. I was stating my opinion. It wasn't a ****ing counter. God ****, why do you take everything to be directed specifically at YOU? Are you seriously constantly thinking about yourself?

lol dude.
First of all try not to get so offended and take things so seriously.
Second, look at your post. I'll quote the part in question.

It's a good thing your opinion in smash counts for nothing, Josh.

Again, from my experience with both players, VenusGospel would make a better panelist.

There are clear reasons why Riot should not be a panelist.

A PR won't be ********, and if you think it would be, then feel free to not take part in the organization of it all.

So, like, at what point did you say someone else's name or make it clear that you weren't talking to me directly? You took a break from the flaming me to comment on VG's thing, which had to be inferred by the reader. But then you talk to another target. Who? You don't make this clear. It could be me, it could be VG, it could be John Mayer, it could be anyone or everyone. But since VG was for the list and you wouldn't have any reason to argue with him on it, and you never stated that you were speaking at a target besides myself, what reason do we have to infer that you were? It's a good thing I'm so intelligent and logical or all of this audacious behavior and clear love for myself would be wrongly founded.

I didn't say don't speak your mind. I said don't participate. Pretty big difference, especially since a PR list can be decided without physically affecting anybody in our small *** community.

Speaking your mind : voting on the subject. I'm participating by trying to prevent it from happening. Don't tell me you think voters aren't participators?

Seriously Josh, every post I read by you reeks of exaggerated self-worth.

It's an interesting debate- who is to blame: the author or the audience?

In fact, I can remember one specific time where, out of nowhere, you thought that Tudios was referencing you when he was actually making a joke about something that you had absolutely no knowledge of (the wig I wear in tourneys sometimes). You proceeded to post a picture of yourself, or at least what I remember you looking like.

Oh yeah! That must have been him not being clear, because I'm pretty freaking intelligent. But how does me misinterpreting/him miscommunicating mean that I think extremely highly of myself? That's fallible logic.

Get the **** over yourself.

Dude. Calm down! :o

 

[Ronin686]

Hey guyz I like to argue too

 

[t!MmY]

Josh, quit making long posts that I have to scroll past. K?

I guess it doesn't matter how many people do or do not want a PR list. In the end, it only take a few people to get together, make a list, and then put it up. I'd like to at least do a decent job with it.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to sleep.

 

[Rage.]

I agree with timmy.
about the PR and sleep
