LOL gtfo Swift!

I am actually serious, I felt really faint and my heart was beating really fast, plus I was sweating. I went to sleep the moment I went to Cactuars and on my way I drank a lot of fluids so I'm good now. . . .

No offense to the owner of the house. .>.>

Growing up without air conditioning gave me a super advantage at Komos place. I had a lotta fun and the Eagles are disappointing.

Check out the new avatar. <3 Scar.

The only reason I'm not gonna say no johns to LK is cause when pound 2 was stifling I played like garbage. xD Heat is a valid john IMO. I think kwan 4 stocked my falco during the heat. >_>

if you think about it, most johns are valid, which is what makes saying "no johns" repeatedly pretty gay.

My notion of a john is an excuse that a loser of a match uses to say something like "Although I lost, I am still better than the victor because of X."

Even if X is valid, Johns-ing is still frowned upon.

But I would not consider LK's post a John, because he forfeit and did not complain about it.

I think Webster put it similarly. And how could we not frown upon that. Johns johns johns, stfu.

I have tournament johns. I get nervous in tourney (singles only). So I have yet to perform to the best of my ability in any singles bracket to date because of how little I can actually concentrate on the match.

That's fine, but that means that the other player is actually better than I am in this exact situation, even though I could probably win in a non-tournament set.

The point of tournaments is actually to see who can win the tournament. I really need to train myself to play better under pressure, and it is in the opinion of this writer that all johnsers should train themselves to concentrate on the game as opposed to circumstances outside the game.

But what do I know anyways. I'm only an incredible, brilliant young man who goes to a better school than all of you.

What do you classify as johns, saying this game is gay all the time when you play it? Cause yea, that can get kinda annoying sometimes. And no, most johns are not valid. If you lost because of...holding down and not catching a ledge, getting phantomed and not dying, you lost, get in the back of the line of all the rest of the people that say dumb **** like that.

Hey, didn't post here before. Wanted to thank komo for a great event. I had a blast, made some new pals (methinks, at least) and overall it was just fantastic. Bravo, sir. Also, maybe next time I get a lead on you, I won't waste it!

I'll get you next time, Gadget. Next time...

he didnt fofeit he just said he let me win after the match was over and then asked me for 3rd place winnings it went to the third match, though he didnt feel well he could have said something b4 we played that he wasnt feeling well insted of telling me after the match was over your threw the match then asking me for the money just say your not feeling well and ill split the money with you and we could play the set later or not at all everyone knows it was hot i was *****ing about it all day but drink some water

I didn't care about the split really after I thought about it and I didn't say I forfeited, I said I gave the set to you. I know it was partly my fault for ignoring it all day till the very end but it was bad and I didn't want to complain about, I just wanted the tourney to end and I probably handled it the wrong way after the set too, but then I was like **** it and went to sleep for the night. I'm not saying you're bad or anything velocity because you've actually improved a lot, so don't take this the wrong way.

EDIT: BTW. . .

I didn't get 4th, ALPHA_OMEGA_Sadaharu Inui did.

@Swift: Thanks for whoopin' up on me at Marvels, dude! I love getting beat at that game. Owning all day gets boring for suresies. <3

@LK: Thanks for introducing me to a really good Marth, dude. I had no idea who you were before Saturday, but now I know better. More Pichu battles laters!

@Scar: We're hanging out later, ja? You look like a drinker. Let's have us a drink.

It was nice to finally meet M2K, and it's always good to see Cactuar in good health. Falco's still gay, Velocity. He's not real either.

@Cape: I dig it when you're in a good mood and able to offer advice to Lack-A-Smashers like me.

@UltimaScout: I'll...see you in a bit?

Yo, JD, when's the next time you're gonna come down to Delaware? We've got a lan station now and I'm itchin' to rough up some local "talent.".

As for Johns...

I played with one hand pretty much the whole day. Does that count as a John? <33

Next Fest I'll be drawing. Look for me doing Smash Bros. fan art.

Remember; it's "UltimaScout." Whichever character he picks to play as becomes his "Avatar."

Plus he's always been Tim to me. Then he started calling himself "1337."

Which is a really stupid name.

But yeah, I'll work out the ladies situation.

Oh, Chocobo, we all got together to not give you shouts just so you could speak up for yourself.

"You'll never get that hermit crab at this rate."

'Sides; you're too over nine thousand to get shouts. All these other dudes need the attention via forum posts.

Enjoy the new season of Frisky Dingo. I know I will.

Boosh.
