The Arequipa tourney is tomorrow. One of the hosts asked me how I record my videos because he's having trouble figuring it out.

At the end of my reply I told him that if he sends me VCR tapes, I can put them on youtube xP

I have a tendency to skim posts, so I don't catch everything. Everyone can pitch in by reporting posts that violate the rules. There's a big red "REPORT" button on the bottom-right of every post.

Bother what? Because I know he's trolling I shouldn't complain?
Why complain O_o

Have you ever complained someone out of trolling? :p

All i mean is obvious trolls should be ignored 110%

It did strech my screen actually. I guess I'm zooming in too much or something.

Ok well I was wrong and I apologize to dsc. Post all the picture you want and I won't wish you bad thing ever again...

Must be your resolution. I thought SWF had that plugin that makes pictures automatically resize so they don't break tables, but I guess not. I think they might be in the process of implementing it though.

can we all be australian when it comes to dsc

that is, deny his existence in general?

'wog' is local slang, you don't have to be australian to get it but if you're australian you'll understand it by default

It stands for world of greeks or western oriental greeks. Think of it as a non-offensive version of neegargh but to greeks instead of african american people.

Ur vietnamese?

There's this vietnamese kid at my school and we never find time to call him a gook because we're all busy making fun of the fact that literally everyone from his country has the same last name as him.

That's weird. I only know a few people named "Nguyen". Most Vietnamese people I know are "Tran".

However, a quick search on Wikipedia shows that Nguyen is by far the most common, so I guess I just happen to miss them all or something.

Gook can refer to Koreans too, though.

Speaking of which, Koreans have tons of people with the same last name, too >_>

I mean, korea's pretty funny too. You got "Park" and "Kim." But there are 17 people in my school who are vietnamese, and every single one of them is named Nguyen. They aren't even related, for the most part. It's like, whose ****ing stupid idea was that? Aren't names supposed to differentiate people?

I just know Gook from old vietnam war movies where the soldiers talk about "killing the gooks" or whatever.

Any news on the AREQUIPA tourney?

Why do you directly insult this system? My name is Anthony and I bet a lot of people are called Anthony. "Whose ****ing idea was that? Aren't names supposed to differentiate people?". You shouldn't be that narrow-minded to apply your western vision to the thing. I think in China there are a few last names, but a lot of first names. In Western country it is the opposite. Maybe Vietnam has also the same principle as the chinese. However it is still true that if half of the country is named nguyen it doesn't make much sense...

Nguyen was a great king, so a bunch of people took up his name.

Besides, the middle name is also pretty important in Vietnam, unlike in the West, where it pretty much doesn't matter at all. So people are still differentiated by their names just fine.

If you upload them with the malva label and don't delete them, nobody would have any reason to re-upload them with an isai label somewhere else.
how about that one guy who uploaded antd's videos even though they are already on antds channel :awesome: lol bad example

don't delete them? lol that's even worse. not going to stop someone who knows I don't like it and does it purposely to irritate me.

the current situation is the best one. i don't upload any fake smash vids and no new ones get circulated. if you wanna watch fake smash, check out malva's livestream

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

so according to PedroMiguel, there are supposed to be maybe 30 vids from the Arequipa tourney =O
