I'm sorry to hear that sir, every visit to McDonald's should be a positive experience, so what I can do for you is personally follow this information up with the restaurant's Owner/Operator so that he/she can be aware of this issue and so that they can address it at their store. First of all though, could you please go into a little detail about your visit, please?

Secretly, I wish people who played bottom tier characters got free stage pick.

No bans.

Double secretly, I really just wanna play Bowser on stories every game.

Triple secretly, the reason I keep picking up new characters is because I feel like I hurt the scene by maining Bowser.

I'm the stupid *** 8 minute falco vs zelda tournament set garbage. I also played the tourney set of Falco vs Dart's Marth on there.

Cosmo: LOL 8 minute matches. I realized after our set that falco has to be just aggressive enough to force zelda to take risks out of her shield. I was probably slightly too passive to make those games as close as our friendlies.

yea it was pretty interesting; you would intuitively think that your approach to the matchup would be the correct one, but somehow falco gets outcamped by zelda :psycho:

**** MY LIFE

today when i tried to use my controller it was always going right, and i reset/unplugged like 10 times and even tried reseting/restarting GC and all that ****

i got it to work for some tech skill practice, then as soon as a friend came over it worked for like 1 minute of a friendly and it started that **** again

so basicly i HAVE to get a new controller...is there anyone that can check prices for me down at like gamestop and see if there are any brand new controllers anywhere around there =/

thx in advance

actually, if you buy a refurbished cube at gamestop (30$), they come with a GC controller. Just ask to see if you can check if it has a new controller in the box. That's wat i did like twice but both cubes broke within a month.

and shoutouts later.
Main shoutout to Luke for teamming with me =)
and josh for rubbing his man boobs

lol talking to cory on FB, and i told him about my controller breaking, and how i actually player well during pools (compaired to my normal self), and we decided the reason my controller broke is cuz when i was playing in pools/brackets i didnt kill myself (except for when i lost to ORLY in pools) so my controller didnt have time to rest from the tech skill.

No worries, the last post had nothing to do with you, it's actually a real fear of mine and has been on one for awhile. I love Bowser so much, that the only real thing that would make me switch is if I felt I was hurting the scene by playing him. At this point I just want to stop johning about my awful character and become amazing with him. But the rest of the scene should be considered.

That's not the issue, rather, the issue that worries me is that our scene is relatively small and scattered. Because of this, our scene would much more benefit from its' members playing characters that are actually played often in tourney. This would afford the members of the scene more matchup experience in the matchups that count in the current metagame. So, by picking a character like Bowser, that most people don't even have to bother learning how to fight, I am doing much much less for the scene than I could be. And in turn, indirectly hurting it.

I'll see what I can do. The person I talked to was kind of concerned that there weren't any Owen residents. So no guarantees, but I'll let you know what I come up with.

Well, very few people have ever played a real match vs. Mario, and look how good Scorpion King did because of it. ;)

Also, winning JUST because people don't know the matchup isn't that satisfying. Here's something you probably don't know, did you know my Bowser edgeguards against spacies are actually quite subpar?

What should be happening is flame the ledge for sweet spotter, or back air the non sweet spotter as the illusion or firefox comes in, instead of just ftiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiilt.
