Okay, just got done reading the last few pages. I really don't think we should even update yet, honestly. Too much non attendance and randomness, but whatever.

David, thanks for the kind words. Those big SD's during our set really cost me and you played clutch the last few stocks.

I love losing for dumb reasons. I've got to stop choking/SD'ing. People only remember results not details. *sigh*

I'm really not worried about these rankings or whether I get put on them though it would be hilarious if I wasn't. I hope everybody knows what's up. I'll accept any MM if you have doubts, especially Falco dittos.

Also, lmao at Cam trashtalking every Falco in the state. There was our last tourney set, I won (where I 4 stocked his Puff and ***** his Falcon after he refused to ditto me, then ***** him in Falco dittos after the set), the fact that he won like 3 matches in 2 or 3 hours the last time we played (he apparently wasn't feeling well, understandable) or all the tournaments he ducked out on. I'm fairly certain I've at least beaten if not 2/3 stocked his Puff the last few times he's played it, with Falco/Fox/Falcon.

Cam is a really good player who talks really big (rightfully so, I really respect his abilities and him) but he always ducks my offers to MM him in dittos, doesn't come to tourneys and then denounces ALL of our friendlies. Talk about unbeatable. This is not even meant to be salty (I'm not) or trashtalk, I am legitimately frustrated that he denounces his peers/fellow Falco mains, but then won't even give me an opportunity to prove myself against him.

1. im not really good

please stop saying i am


2. i talk big because i like to, not because i deserve to


3. ur a scrub josh, and u say scrubby *** ****. you just referenced a set that we had at malk's house when i was out of my mind drunk/high... i didn't even know the tournament was going to continue until we got there, i was completely wasted. you also went FOX that set... so ur purposefully making it sound like ur falco did ****, when you kept that ***** back at the selection screen.


YOU ***GET. ****ING MONEY MATCH ME. YOU'VE NEVERRRRRR CHALLENEGED ME TO A MONEY MATCH....


josh, i will falco ditto ur *** any day of the week. $5.


and i will put $10 on my puff beating ur ****ty patterned falco. bring it on f@g.


and i will never call you a falco main. even if you beat me in the money match, ur a scrub who changed characters because you weren't man enough. keep rotating *****.



EDIT:

just a warning, when we do our money matches i'll be sober josh. sober and actually doing my best to win.

something you do not see when you come to my place and smoke water with me. maybe that's "how you've improved" but it severely hinders me and my will to win.

but that won't be a problem in our money matches and holy **** i'm looking forward to it

You are so mad.

1. I think you're good.
2. Cool.
3. Please note the way your johns are always legit and everyone else's are not. I knew this was the response I would get so I cited other instances of play as well.

Also, nowhere in my post did I say I played Falco in our set, only that I won it. I didn't purposefully do anything of the sort.

4. I challenged you at ETD and you declined. I have asked you several other times with the same results. Whether you choose to remember is up to you.

I look forward to our money matches, and it would make me happy for you to win. I just want to play you at something you'll accept as legit as you have not given me an opportunity to otherwise. I have beaten your Puff enough to know you'll just try to rest spam in a MM so I'm not as interested in giving you a chance to cheap out a win that way. Besides, if I beat your Puff you'll be like "I was playing Puff and my Puff sucks!" and if you win you will brag forever, exactly like you did with Sneak.

I don't care what you call me; it's not your decision who I main. You're the scrub if you can't accept that.

PS: My Falcon goes even with your Falco when we play, my Falco goes more than even, but this is irrelevant.
PSS: Is Kevin not a Falco main in your mind either? By your logic, he's a scrub that quit Mario.

Nevermind, I don't even want to play you. I have been so good to you. Your lack of respect is disgusting.

woooooaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh wowwwwwwwwwwwwww

oook, so now ur taking it outside of smash... see, i was saying i don't respect the way you play, but no problem, i'll address this too. ****, time for personal **** coming out on the internet:


ok so.. yeah idk, i've wanted...TRIED.. to keep things chill between us, so i've kept my mouth shut a lot of the times that i've wanted to say something in person, but you pretty much crossed the line now...

ok so..."good to me"? like coming over and doing some (EDIT: )green **** with me? or offering this and that? bringing ur speakers from home that one time at that smashfest that you blew up at? allowing me to come in ur house and ****, or giving me a ride to raleigh in your car those 2 times? or rides when you're going places that you'd be going to whether i'm there or not? that one time you payed for my chipotle? materials? nice man. those things are pretty insignificant to me, to be honest...cool to have them, equally cool to not have them. thanks a lot, but a lot of that **** i didn't even ask for.... could have done without, especially when i can't even be real with you in another context without you referencing what i "owe" you.... right here, i mean....

hell, michael harrell, besides the green greens which we're about even on anyway, has done even MORE for me in that sense, you know, $$-wise, material-wise... just saying... i owe that dude... lol

but uhh... yea so let me get to why what you said is so infuriating.... and i've been waiting for this for a while

josh...

for someone who considers (or i guess..considered?) me one of his better friends in the community, a "smash friend" who you can chill with and "not smash," you've done very little to show what that really means to you.... let me explain:

have you ever asked me about ME? or ever tried to get to know me on any deeper level? no. you've never done that. dude.........you just talk about yourself. 24/7. joshjoshjoshjoshjoshjoshjosh. and i'm cool with it, honestly.. i've gotten used to it. and i think ur an alright guy, sometimes we can laugh about some stupid ****, but usually you're self-absorbed to levels that i just don't comprehend, so i never (at least NOT ANYMORE) try to get me involved in us because honestly, i'm afraid ur so about josh that you just simply won't give a ****. and i'm right. because i've TRIED, on MORE than one occasion. and you didn't give a **** haha. you didn't even NOTICE!!! i just smiled and continued being in your company... pretty ****ing goddamn discouraging. i have to act like i don't care about anything, in fact, i have to make an effort to...because otherwise i'd be so depressed around you. do you understand this? do you realize the state of our relationship now?

so please. don't tell me that you're SO GOOD to me. like you've done SO MUCH. made SUCH A POSITIVE DIFFERENCE in my life. if all those material things that you GRANTED me had never occured in my life, it would make no ****ing difference. all i remember is the times i was ignored/neglected, kept a straight face despite feeling so morbid, and still called a "friend"... so maddening, it's been.... and the worst part is you were never even realizing how neglectful you were being..... you, APPARENTLY, thought you had always been a GREAT friend! who's been so F*CKING good to me!


yo man, you haven't done **** when it comes to the important stuff. you haven't done squat **** to try to understand me or truly be a companion of mine.


so yeah...
as usual, you're giving yourself WAYYYYY too much credit, but this time it's so undeserved that i don't know whether to get mad or vomit... or cry. because honestly i'm so frustrated right now that i'm at the brink of it.


thanks for all the good times?



psh, guess not. see ya around darksyde.


yeah....

Cam: You forgot that time you borrowed like $40-$80 bucks from me and I just let you never pay me back for it. And while those type things may not matter to you, they were just thoughtful actions and signs of appreciation. I'm sorry, maybe when you are earning 100% of your own spending money, you will understand.

As for the rest of it, I work in an office where if people are not forthcoming with personal information you do not pry. I have never dodged any personal topic of yours to my recollection and I can remember sitting and talking with you about a particular girl on numerous occasions. It makes it even harder to believe I would do that being how excited I tend to get when people ARE forthcoming about their personal lives. I'm really really open and talkative (side effect of many years of dating aka having to carry conversations because most girls suck at talking) so yes, I do talk a lot, about myself, my ideas and a lot of other things in hopes that people will respond with their own ideas, feelings, situation and stories. We've had a lot of conversations about those things too.

I feel like anyone who has ever spent a lot of time with me doing things not playing Melee (especially people like Chris, John, Adam, Kevin, Dylan, Aasem, Kyle etc) could speak up for me in saying that in addition to talking about myself a lot, I spend a lot of time listening to other people's interests and problems. I have AT LEAST 5 (meaning there are lots more that pop in and out) who depend on me for advice, support or just someone to talk to. It is actually exhausting but I love it.

I'm sorry that you don't feel like I have fulfilled your needs for that. We've talked a lot but I feel like it is YOU that do not offer a lot about yourself and like I said, I have learned to not pry. I constantly tell you how much I respect you, how interesting your thoughts (in and out of game) are, but I will take that last post of yours to heart and I will review whether there is more merit to it than I had thought. That is all I can offer.

I can definitely see where Josh is coming from, because I do the same thing. I generally talk about myself and then wait for people to interrupt me and say something, and then I really enjoy listening and giving advice. A lot of people see me as self absorbed because they were raised not to interrupt, and then I just go on rambling about stuff. It really just goes back to how people are raised. My mom, most of my good friends and others in my family tend to interrupt each other a lot, so I came to expect people to interrupt me if they wanted to talk rather than me asking them questions.

However, I have come to realize that it is important to think about the talking styles that other people have. I don't think I'm as self-absorbed as some people view me, but at the same time the fact that I expect interruption should have no privilege in a conversation. Most of the times these kinds of problems go back to difference in style, rather than to specific character faults. Just gotta think about what other people expect in a conversation.

That being said, even if it is mainly a communication problem, it doesn't necessarily mean you or I are not self-absorbed.
