*Pound* 4:: VGBootCamp Debut! Two days. Plank's sanity remaining: 50%

[Bubbleman_Nsider]

Nice double posting there, Hbox.

Did you see the news?

 

[strawhats]

How about Azen? He said he was going to go, but he's not registered.

lol...how ironic that this tourament is in the MD/ Va area yet its inhabitants are the biggest procrastinators ever.

Yea...Azen is going, along with Chu, Chillin, Kirbstir. They'll all prob. just register at the same time.


D'oH, and Lobos are one of the very few from MD/VA to have actually registered already.

 

[Эикельманн [РУС]]

Vegard, when did you move to MD? =P

 

[SnackAttack]

Guys! The Rev (Avenged Sevenfold drummer) died.

D:

 

[Rasalas]

That happened early this week.

I hope M2K doesn't rage quit like a loser again like in Winterfest.

Rage quitting is what's "in" now, son. Even Brawlers do it, twice or thrice in the same set.

 

[SnackAttack]

I didn't know if people knew.

They're losers, then.

 

[TwentyTwo]

I demand Tik Tok by Kesha to be played at this.

WAKE UP IN THE MORNING FEELING LIKE P DIDDY

Aside from that. lol at mango trying to get registration from someone else. I mean if he doesn't have a card and was asking a favor, I'd understand. Sounds like he's just being a bum though.

 

[Eval]

I'm gonna leave this here.

Whoever pauses the game in one of my matches is getting that Round of the match DQ'd. I don't care who it is. It's just too annoying and ticks you off that someone presses start in the middle of the match. Please stop doing that because I don't want you to get 1 round of the set lost just because you decided to press start. (unless is a ragequit I'm fine with that)

Plank, any info about the pausing issue.

PS. Melee peach player wins! Brawl peach players drama too much, which is fun to watch. lol

 

[Rasalas]

I was going to say the exact same thing, Eval.

And Brawl players in general make too much drama, not only Peach players.

 

[JPOBS]

wait, people pause in the middle of brawl matche sfor no reason?

lol too good

 

[Bubbleman_Nsider]

And Brawl players in general make too much drama, not only Peach players.

"Ban MK!! He's too cheap! Oh wait, ban Snake too! He's uber-cheap! Dedede chaingrab too cheap too!"

Remember the days when the forums were full of that crap?

 

[Rasalas]

Yeah, I remember, lol. I still remember when they did something close to that with Fox, Sheik or Marth a long time ago for Melee.

Not just Brawl matches, Melee matches too.

They're just sore losers.

 

[KageMurphy]

You queers from PR, shut up.

 

[CT Chia]

Yo phil theres too many hype matches goin down at this tourney, you gotta make some serious side bets. il be your bookie too, i only take a 10% cut on all wins lol

 

[Bubbleman_Nsider]

You queers from PR, shut up.

Hospitality at its finest.

 

[Rasalas]

Who are you? You a bot?

Do you even play Melee decently?

 

[hungrybox]

I love how people (especially on YouTube) think I'm "rage quitting" when I reset the match when I miss a rest and I'm at 120% last stock.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOL


and don't be hatiing on the puerto ricans!

Sorry Hbox, I didn't mean you, I meant the match where M2K ragequitted with 1 stock left after you landed a rest.

And against DJ Nintendo, too.

What a loser.

 

[Angel.M <3 C:]

Rage quiting is just.

making matches faster then normal why complain?

 

[Rasalas]

Rage quitting is just to rob the moment of victory where the announcer says "GAME!". lol

 

[SuperRad]

What a loser.

play him in tournament, then call him a loser
smh

who cares if he quits out?

 

[Angel.M <3 C:]

someone remind wes to pre-registerrr DDDD:

 

[Rasalas]

smh

I dont have a problem with playing with him and calling him a loser, even if he beats me.

 

[Rain(ame)]

It's a mental thing. There are just some matches where you get hit by EVERYTHING. If you know how it's gonna turn out and you want to start anew....then just pause it. That's an instant loss of the match anyway. That's what I saw him doing at Winterfest.

Would you rather M2K do what he did at RoM and just randomly SD? It's a bit quicker to just pause it.

Case in point...get your focus back, then go. Don't try to turn a match around if you lost hope in it. That seems to be the line of reasoning for some people. I dont' fault them for that...it's just a different way of playing.

 

[Rasalas]

But look at what he did against Shiz. He turned the match completely around in RoM and won. He probably doesn't believe in comebacks anymore.

 

[SuperRad]

He turned that match around because Shiz ran right into his 'trap'. Making a comeback against a jigglypuff is also much more difficult then getting gimps on falco.

Pausing isn't against the rules at a lot of tournaments. For example, this tournament makes no mention of it.

 

[Dekar173]

But look at what he did against Shiz. He turned the match completely around in RoM and won. He probably doesn't believe in comebacks anymore.

It's a momentum thing.

Just as was stated, if you're getting hit by EVERYTHING and you're COMPLETELY down in that match, you AREN'T going to be coming back, because believe it or not, your opponent is a person of similar skill, and they've got momentum in their favor.

Comebacks happen when one player becomes too cocky, and starts to make mistakes.

Up against a top player though, that's not gonna happen.



As for pausing, people button mashing sometimes pause, and I don't have a problem with it, the only time I DO have a problem with it is when they immediately unpause directly afterward like they didn't do anything.

 

[White_Mike]

Guys! The Rev (Avenged Sevenfold drummer) died.

D:

You have no idea how sad I was when I found out

 

[Rasalas]

Then when someone is doing a 0-death combo I'll pause the game several times so he will miss it.

If it isn't against the rules.

 

[Eval]

Pausing isn't against the rules at a lot of tournaments. For example, this tournament makes no mention of it.

Sure, if there's no rule then I'm going to pause the game every time you are outside of the stage so you can die faster. /sarcasm

I have yet to see a game where pausing is allowed and people let it go. Stop being scrubs...

 

[HAT]

hey how about we all talk about something important in the pound 4 thread?

you're talking about random ****- - how about figuring out who needs housing

like who needs housing over here!! it's like a hotel! but far superior.

also

this tournament is going to be amazing.

 

[Rasalas]

This is important talk, it's about the rules. We want to be sure if we can pause the game so we cant lose any match.

 

[MattDotZeb]

You have no idea how sad I was when I found out

Why?
He already has his music out anyway

 

[KageMurphy]

Are you kidding me? You can't just pause the game, I mean if theres a LEGIT REASON then ask your oponnent b4 doing so I guess, how the **** is this even a topic? Get some common sense, my God.

 

[Dark Hart]

Why?
He already has his music out anyway

Probably because he's a A7X fan, like I am. I got really sad for a bit when I found out.

 

[Final Fantasy XIV]

Plank, I just registered Fraud and I for brawl teams and singles, please double check if I did everything needed when you have time.

 

[Angel.M <3 C:]

anyone have extra room in there hotel room for me and my friend?

 

[TheTantalus]

Common sense folks, if someone pauses the game without permission, report them and they'll lose the match

That simple
