Can't get off work. Can't afford to get off Work. And I think I'd be the only one leaving if I left friday. Can't afford the trip by myself. Also I'm just not that good at the game anymore :/...

I'm picking up Renth and taking him back to Nick's house, so I'm sure we'll be playing there. He and I will be there around 8pm though.

Ok Lads and lasses

In honor of my birthday I decided to post a bit of a pep talk before the big apex tourney

I realized this last hope was MOSTLY just pittsburgh. I noticed that our region is really good and that the rest of the world deserves to bathe in our glory. Between epic 2 v 1s, crazy luigi trixies, deep marth down airs, falcon punches, donkey comebacks, borp, and 100 dollar mms; We have alot to offer.

Its time we stepped it up.

No more of this knocked out in 1 match stuff. We are a force to be reckoned with. WE being the key word. Lets do it together. Lets play like a family. Cause thats what we are now. No more getting jacked when we lose to one another. Your not losing to somone you deserve to beat. You lost to somone in your smash family who knows you in a way you probably didnt know possible. This person helped you grow as a competitor. So think of that the next time you lose a set. Smile as you shake their hand. Cause that handshake is not just a "Good job" but a "Thank you". We need to find humility before we can achieve greatness. So root for your fellow pittsbutlerians. Root for an ashtabulian. Heck root for some random new player whos feeling a bit nervous because its his first big national. Root for your favorite characters. Pittsburgh is about the hype.

So lets play like a family...and bring it ;D


This second half is dedicated to everyone who has made me the competitor i am today. We have all made sacrifices. But the pay out was beyond worth it. Im thinking of actually playing other fighthers, speed running, brawl even (it was fun) and am gonna being cut back on melee a bit. Im not gonna quit it but I plan on taking my life in a new direction for the new year. Stepping it up as you will. So cheers to every chap that has made an impact on me from this beloved community.

Jacob Delenore Raducz - For how long ive known you i sure hope i got your last name right. You were the first person in my life that wasnt family that I could honestly say id die for without even a second thought. You have inspired me for years. Your my favorite artist. Period. Your potential is untapped. Thank you for teaching me to honor patience in the ides of competition. Cant wait to sing my lungs out in the car for apex ;D

Master Namaru Of Nak - What more could a team mate ask for? We have come a long way you and I. Trough hourly sessions of broken spirits and controllers. Here we are. The counts of monte combo. I dont know how how well we will do at apex; But I can safely say this. I feel bad for anyone who has to play us. Because we are here to fight and its GOING to hurt. Thank you for showing me that just because somone anally penetrates you with falcon punches (I take pride being the person you have falconed punched the most) that I can still live to fight another day. Thank you for teaching me roll with punches and fight till my last breath.

Taki - Out of anyone from pittsburgh, you have beaten me the most. Time after time again. Your WAY better then pepole give you credit for. I give you a hard time but its tough love. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aA-tOsM6F4Y thanks for teaching me to breathe. Because if I dont...i wont.

Alan - Your the reason I play super brothers cube for the nintendo game box competitively . Thank you for adding romance to my life :) Lets crew battle again some time. In johns basment. for old time sake

Wemp - Well excuuuuse me mr.improvment. I love you marc. Roll with this community you will climb in know time. Folks dont know about the jelly fish sting ;D

D20 - I miss you thank you for using a blue low tier and talking about chicks with me. Be a model like you were meant to be.

Thomas Regen -Truly a brother. You brougth me to the last apex out of the kindness in your heart. That token of genirosity has not been forgotten my friend and Ill answer back someday in kind :D Out of all the folks I dont see much...I miss you the most. Cobra five into garbage can.

Caroll - If I never found naka we would have been teammates. Maybe even more. I admire your approach to making the game work for you. Your improvment lately is mind blowing. Keep your chin up. Lose the rage. You play 100000X better when you have that cute "glee" induced smile on your face. Do it for kara. DO IT FOR SPIDER BALL. I await with antici.....................pation ;D

Johnny - Everyone gives you ****. But you are just the wake up call this community needed. We never had somone m2k us before. We needed to know the world can be dark and horrible. But to deal with it. Thats what being a competitor is about. Scew the hate johnny. Congrats on keeping your composure when everyone else puts you down. Thats why you win and thats why you deserve it. On behalf of our community (because this is what we all really mean when we call you a CHOD for timing our ness's out) "Thank you johnny may I please have another" Make apex your Rom 3 (4..?)

Gerald - The only black person that can match my wit and sexual ambiance. Keep the elbow strong and play more plox.

Davey - You did sooo well at HOPE dude. Massive improvment. I consider you most improved next to caroll. Thanks for showing me my mario isnt my best character. I look forward to our magic hat rivarly. I need to hear your band sometime. Killers cover right?

Zach Bill - I think next to green ranger your the most manly player in pittsburgh. Because you use marth in teams and actually do well. I will team with you any day...naka isnt there ;D Love your smile

Abate - Welcome to the family. Your incredibly fun to play and even more fun to hang out with. Lets do that more. Naked. Lights on. pokeballs only. after a game of poker of course.

Green Ranger - You may not realize this but your actually the best person in our region. Caqtuar has been the best in PA for like 70 years. Your the only one from PA to EVER beat him. Your also an incredible sport and the best DK ive ever played. You should prove that by the way at apex ;D

Vyke - All my tech skill ive ever learnd. This guy right here. I hate you. I wanted to beat vagrat story. Thank you for taking me in when i needed a place to stay. You and nina will always have a place in my heart. Sorry for being such a mooch and make your grimey basment smell worse ;D You dont play this game anymore but I thought you should know that as a gamer your gamer crib is most appreciated. See ya at the next Sonic Fighters tourney.

Thethethethethelyme - Best drive ive ever met. The three wismen ride to our first national together. It seems like it was almost yesterday we were lost in pittsburgh trying to find dusqense, getting into knife fights and shady neighborhoods. You have it rough these past couple years but things are starting to look up. Smell my flowers Kenneth.

Atacuasbeebop - Keep your shirt on. I miss you greatly. I owe my marth all to you <3

Swiftbass - TIM OMG you kept me playing. You were such an incredible guy and I...ugh.....Words cant describe what you have done for me in through my journey palying this game. Thank you ya fast fish you.

Slamus - Go to tournaments and stop going to jail. Your good at this game.

TSK - See ya at tekko you adorable thing. First person to 4 stock me in pittsbuuuuurgh

Renth - I cant wait to play you again. I think your an incredible dude and your immesnly fun to watch. I have a good laptop so I can play Heros of Newereth with you now.

Mama Ambix - You have a very special place in my heart. As a gamer its rare for me to find pepole that play rpgs...like that being there forte. So I value our relationship immensly. Lets play poker with abate and davey and teach me how to deal the following games....*insert EVERY CASINO CARD GAME*

Machiavelirigotonispaghetimeatballarooniplatooniswoonimalooniebreadbasketforumoli - You have my favorite name to mutilate. Your fox is getting fierce. Remind me to not go peach on you anytime soon (Never forget).

Mav - Brawl is actually really fun and very difficult you guys dont get nearly enough credit. Teach me.

Loki - What can I say my "Danny devito''. I love your work. You owe me a pokemon drawing thing. Your the fetchest gal in pittsburgh. Nice to know i have another person to play blaz blue with when i get into that. Oh and I want my pink shirt back. I WANT MY PINK SHIRT BACK.

i'm always down for whatever. i'm just busy some of tonight and most of tomorrow due to my band playing tomorrow (otherwise i'd be at apex). but i'm pretty sure i don't have anything planned for the rest of that time. so if anyone wants to come over and watch the stream or something sunday, anyone's invited as long as you give me a heads up.

Also: john booney I just realized what your avatar is....amazing.
:phone:

Yea man. One time I checked "dump textures" while running smash on Dolphin. This was one of the results. It's Falcon's face texture. It just happened to be perfectly avatar-sized and incredibly badass. My avatar is literally falcon's face.

Where it all went wrong
Last night I dreamt that I had attended Apex. Much to my surprise, the venue was an abandoned bush-plane hangar amidst a sprawling rural field.

Also to my surprise, M@v was hosting the tournament and expected precisely $114 for an entry fee. Apparently I couldn't come up with this money even in my dreams, so, in a brief moment of reality, I chose not to enter the tournament.

I walked around spectating for awhile and happened upon none other than our own Mr. Lake, who kept having to play fellow Pittsburghers every round, as keeping with typical Pittsburgh protocol. This time, however, he surprised me by wearing a hat that was at least two head-lengths tall and was seemingly meant to resemble some manner of cake dessert. Or maybe it was a cake he was wearing. It wouldn't be the first time that my dreams included Aaron wearing desserts in some fashion.

Also, when he got to Taki in the bracket, the two of them agreed to make it a money match as well, and the entire attendance of the tournament gathered round to spectate what they were calling "'TheLake' vs 'TheSand.'"

I have no memory of who won in the dream, so apparently my brain was only interested in producing the ethnic joke.

Finally, the hype was rising as finals were set to take place, and while I couldn't make out the one contender's identity, I was rather surprised to find that the other finalist was Link. Not his character, but the player himself was actually Link.

And he was playing Fox.

Unfortunately the details of the match were lost to the dark oblivion of subconsciousness, but I do remember Jacob offering to give me a ride home on his motorcycle, which was awfully nice.

...

So how was Apex?

and some people wonder why inui is debatably the most hated smasher.
