Smash Hero
Hey guys its Snap here, recently there was a large tournament in our nations capital called *Pound* 5. Europes best player, Adam "Armada" Lindgreen came here for this tournament with our help with something called the good player fund. It paid for his plane ticket and he came to our country just trying to play some smash bros. "The good player fund" However, did not pay for any of the things he needed while here (Food etc). But this was not a problem for him at the time, He went on to place second at the tournament, and put on one hell of a show vs hungrybox

Aramda played with a passion and a love for this game that I have never seen in anyone, and he won the set vs hbox 2-0. Even Americans were cheering him on as he fought against Juan. (whether it was a love for low tiers or a hate for puff or a combination of both i do not know)
I had a chance to speak to armada shortly after the tournament with my good friend Doctor PeePee and he talked to PP about coming to Switzerland and playing smash with him and his friends and playing some super PAL bros. We all laughed at the idea of PP trying to use falcos PAL dair. We asked Armada and all of Europe to eat with us and they did. We filled up buffalo wild wings and talked more, Aramada came off as a really nice guy to me. Very fun to talk to despite his English (Which has improved drastically since genesis)
But apparently since then things have taken a turn for the worse for Armada since then, Since he was under the impression he would be receiving Pound money shortly, he purchased his tickets for genesis with money that was borrowed from a friend, then after the **** storm that happened earlier today when plank announced there would not be an immediate payout (if there was one at all) due to financial troubles with the hotel and not enough people coming out for pound, His brother Aniolas made this post
Basically Armada needs our help because what happened here, at least, I feel, was not his fault at all. If Im the only one willing to donate thats fine, I just want armada to know that we, as a country are sorry that this misfortune befell him at one of our communities hands.
By no means is this a "Lets bash plank" Thread, I wish to keep that out of here as much as I possibly can, I just want to help Armada. Lets give the guy a reason to look forward to coming back!

Shortly after I contacted Armada on facebook and asked him how much he owed at that i really wanted to help. This was his responseAniolas said:I feel so bad for my brother. His flight ticket was paid with the good player fund (feel sorry for you guys who donated aswell), but the whole trip cost much more than just the flight. He thought he would get some money from this after he placed 1st in teams and 2nd in singles, so he borrowed money from a friend to buy flight tickets to Genesis 2. Now he has no money and he owes other people a lot of money.
