That's what I thought at first, but then Shiken showed up at a Zigfest.

My personal theory is that they can't exist in the same area for long periods of time or the world will end. Perhaps the effect is amplified at certain times, which is why more distance is needed between Chris and Shiken.
But why California? Is there some facility related to the two there? Hmm...
And Kerg is obviously an android designed to measure spatial distortion, which is why she started feeling unwell after a while at said Zigfest and why Shiken left at that time.

Are Zifien's superhuman abilities related to all this? More investigation is required.
Yea it weird that Zig is in California and Shiken happens to be moving there. What makes it even more peculiar is that Shiken moves there the exact day Zig said to be returning.

Another observation: Shiken plays DDD, the nemesis of Bowser.

My theory is that they are Yin and Yang. Two parts to the same person.

Welcome to Zigfest.

The first rule of Zigfest is: You do not talk about Zigfest.

The second rule of Zigfest is: You DO NOT talk about Zigfest!

Third rule of Zigfest: Someone "No Contests", disconnects the Wii, or dies, the match is over.

Fourth rule: Only two or four guys to a match.

Fifth rule: One match at a time, fellas.

Sixth rule: No stage textures, no Brawl+.

Seventh rule: Matches will go to time if they have to.

And the eighth and final rule: If this is your first time at Zigfest, you have to do the Ganon challenge.

I don't go to UT, I have a place in East Austin but I actually commute to Texas State University. I'm down to play whenever. I'm a ZSS main, with Samus as my secondary.

2 ZSS mains in Austin? Hory shet

Are you guys gathering a carpool for Swatfest? Trying to get a count on people.
I'm 99% sure I'm going but not sure for how many days. I want to go the full 4. You're providing housing correct? Shaun and Joel might come too. Shaun is still deciding. He wants to go if we go at least 3 days(I think it was). Joel hasn't confirmed but expressed interest.

Legit. Well I mean you're practically allowed like 5 days. From Monday all the way up until Saturday morning. Yes everybody that comes will be staying at my house. I will need some help with setups if possible. Let me know when you guys are completely confirmed.

Oh neat, a Metroid fan.
Just a heads-up, Samus should never be used against my character. It's unwinnable for her. =P

Tofer, Joel actually moved a little closer to you guys. He's still part of our scene, though.

I'll almost definitely go to Dojo's if the following two conditions are met:
A. Joel goes, too.
B. We can stay for at least three days.
I apologize for my indecisiveness.

Hey guys, I'm done with competitive Brawl. I'll post a blog later explaining exactly why.

I'll still host fests at my place, and I'd still like to go to the circuit stops, but I'm not gonna be trying to improve any more. This game's just not worth my time anymore.

I thought you just had a breakthrough with the Olimar match-up. :glare:

Probably related to this:
I'll be at a SoCal tournament in like an hour. Should be a livestream--I'll post the link.
But I thought you said:

Link to original post: [drupal=4473]All About BOWSER[/drupal]

I often view myself as an oddball in terms of the Smash scene. I don't practice often because I don't have a Wii, and with my injury to my forearms still healing, I have to give myself rest and as such don't play for as long as I used to. I find that my game always improves as I improve other aspects of my life, and the confidence gained from these improvements only strengthens my Bowser in return. Whenever people tell me they think I'm the best Bowser or I do something completely unexpected or hold my own against a top player and/or a bad matchup, I just get this surge of happiness. It's like watching a great animated film to me. I feel completely alive and awake and proud to be where I am today.

Maybe deep down Bowser and I connect because I share his drive to succeed. He gets beat by Mario time and time again, yet he doesn't give up. People often tell me my dreams and impossible, but I won't ever quit. Just like I'll never quit Bowser. Some people would say I'm a fool to play such a bad character in a competitive game, but I don't care what they have to say. I tried to NOT play Bowser for the majority of my Brawl career, and yet he just keep coming back to me. Just as wands pick their wizard in Harry Potter, I feel like Bowser chose me. I was made to play Bowser.

I've only got one more semester left at UT before I move out to Hollywood to work, so this may end up being my last six months as a competitive Smasher. I don't know what the future holds, but I'm excited to play friends both old and new with Bowser and continue to represent hands-down my favorite character in the entire game.
Though it is admirable that you'd quite the game before quitting your favorite character, it's a bit upsetting that you'd just give up.

Record: About three hours
Upload: MUCH longer, but it didn't require my attention by that point. Youtube's letting me upload more than two now.

You are quite mistaken, Joel.
And I just forgot where I was going with this because Fullmetal Alchemist came on. From what I saw in the OP, one of the characters looks like ZSS and for some reason that blanked my mind.

Can you put these songs on your wii Shaun?

OH MY LORD, this sounds like Bomberman 64 or something.
Frigging awesome, this has to go somewhere.

Don't like this one.

This sounds like something Nick might like.

Can you give us like the short version of why you were quitting and then now you're not? I wasted my time being genuinely sad for no reason now! But actually it's because you never wrote the blog you said you were going to write about all this. :c
