Is it true there's some sort of skype group you guys use to play each other? I requested to join awhile back and never heard anything.

I'm gonna research some hosting companies, and see if I can get something going on. I already have the server files.

i just played a pikachu who did absolutely nothing but throw, utilt, uair, and fsmash. i could probably count on one hand the amount of times he used another aerial or anything else in general.

lord that was annoying.

edit: i know most people are used to it but jesus christ. this is relevant to the discussion me bcow and fireblaster were having the other day. i fail to see how that playstyle is enjoyable to people. if you're a player who plays like that, please, enlighten me as to why you find it fun. i am honestly lost and would really like to know.

truly.

Spacing is fun. I would rather do good spacing with simple moves than bad spacing with original moves. Some people like flash, some don't. Some people just like to be Tim Duncan, others have to be Allen Iverson. Its all good.

COOKING WITH COBRA EPISODE 3

RIBS done the RIGHT WAY

JUST IN TIME FOR THE BIGGEST BBQ HOLIDAY OF THE YEAR - THE 4TH OF JULY

what you will need:

a very big bowl big enough to accommodate your rack
one rack of ribs (as large as you choose)
a grill
maple syrup
barbecue sauce
seasonings: i use Fiery 5 Pepper, Black Pepper, Garlic Pepper, Lemon Pepper, Crushed Red Pepper, Mesquite, Salt, Cajun, and if i'm feeling SAUCY i'll put some Adobe, Garlic Powder, and Soul Food seasoning. you should pick and choose which pepper combinations you like best - smell them all and see what complements each other and your tastebuds.
cilantro (opt)
soy sauce (opt) - i did not have either of these ingredients but i think they'd be ****ing baller

first, boil the ribs in a gigantic pot to cook them up and soften them up. but you don't want to overdo it to the point they're falling off the bone. ask your mother how long you should boil them for. she'll know.
pour the maple syrup in with the barbecue sauce and add all the spices to that concoction. with long luscious strokes and gentle caresses work the marinade you just created into the ribs, getting it as deep as you can. yes i am being sexual on purpose.
if possible, you should put the ribs in a ziplock with the sauce and let them marinade overnight. if not **** it, you'll be gucc
once you've basted them and **** though make sure you slice them into individual ribs. i mean i guess you can do this pre-marinade but i've always done it my way and i'm the ****ing chef here okay. but definitely once you slice them into individual ribs you should apply the sauce to the sides as well.
fire up that grill to like 400 or something sweltering and put the ribs on. make sure you have a brush nearby to continually coat the ribs with the leftover marinade. the reason being you don't want it to burn off from the FIYAAAAAAAAAAAAA
after 40ish minutes of basting and flipping you should have a nice char on the ribs. cut one open and see if it's done. there shouldn't be any blood or red/pink near the bone or in the fatty areas. keep basting all over like you're rubbing a lamp.
the smell that will come from the cooking maple syrup/bbq sauce is ****ing heavenly and your neighbors will likely want to be your friend, and you will in all probability tell them to **** off and devour the entire rack of ribs yourself
however, once there is no more blood, you should remove them from the grill and serve immediately, scalding hot, with a cold beer (yuengling, guinness, any darker lager will do the trick tbh, some people like pale ales but to each their own i guess...) on the side.

ENJOY

There's a SSB tourney in Frederick, MD on July 20th. I'll post the details once they are finalized, but for now I want to know who from NY/NJ is interested in coming? MD/VA has gone up to NJ several times now for all of the Apexes and Zenith, and I came up for BHB in Brooklyn. It's NY/NJ's turn to come down to our home turf.

I get 8 frames on SAN FRAN server from TAIWAN ROFL. I could almost p2p with people in the west coast.

Master server list finally works, but I can't find a Japanese smash server T_T

GGs yesterday (might have been saturday) Nintendude. I'm not tourney ready yet but once I am I'd be down. I live in Connecticut.

I could tell you weren't try harding but it also wasn't blatant sandbagging which makes you fun to play.

Fastest way to get "tourney ready" is to come to a tourney and play lots of games with lots of players. Come join us!

Australia is pretty bad. I get 3-4 frames on some Japanese servers, but they don't play smash. The only 2 I found, I get 6 frames there... It really sucks. Especially since nobody speaks english, it's almost impossible to find someone to play.


(05:28:32PM) <Squall> the problem is me?
(05:28:40PM) <–k‰ª> what's up?
(05:28:46PM) <Squall> the desynchronisation
(05:29:15PM) <–k‰ª> again?
(05:29:25PM) <Squall> yes, why so many?
(05:29:30PM) <–k‰ª> no
(05:29:36PM) <Squall> I have hotel internet, maybe it is bad
(05:29:53PM) <–k‰ª> ah

WHY IS IT SO HARD TO UNDERSTAND EACH OTHER ='( ='(

End result: I had 6 frames, so I only played against the delay. We couldn't play more than one game without ds. **** Fox's dtilt and Falcon's stick jump. It really sucks how I can get 2 frames on some Japanese servers, but no, the smash ones have to be those where I get 6.

soul food seasoning is probably made by the blackest chefs out on the louzanna bayou and then shipped around the state being tweaked and twerked

but it's in a small container that says "soul food seasoning"

july 20th tournament is a possibility but i really don't want to drive again, NH was plenty of driving for me

if chris/joe/etc decide to go i'll just see if i can hitch with them

speaking of, chris/joe/etc do you want to go to md for a tournament and let me get shottie?

If driving is a dealbreaker, you could look into buses from ny to dc. That's how I'm coming down this week.
