ZHEN. good **** quitting your job, I read your posts but haven't seen many responses. It seems like you are getting a raaaaaw ****ing deal I'm surprised you toughed it out this long (I hope the pay was good). You deserve better and can definitely get it! Just be extroverted and look everywhere!

 

[PoofyHair]

Good luck to everyone at APEX! Say 'hi' to Amsah for me ^^

 

[PoofyHair]

I'm terrible, don't listen to this man.

It's somewhere to start ^^

I hope I can play you someday :3

Heh, the pay was 8 an hour, which was what I started at back in March of last year. I spoke to my supervisor tonight, put in my one week notice, and as of Monday the 16th, I'm no longer employed to my current company. I've done what I could, and I'm pushing out this last week, because it ends my two week pay period, so I get another full paycheck to help hold me over, then it's new job time. Already got stuff lined up, well planned, it's just filling out applications now. Also, Mana, since I'mma have some time, we HAVE to work out some sorta thing where I can visit for a day or two and just Melee it up dude. We'll talk more on it later on.

APEX UPDATES

snakeee defeated junebug to take first in his pool
san defeated everyone to take first as well

neil narrowly lost to will 2-1 and took second pool seed
Dr. G took a game off of cables DK, but wasnt able to take the set, tho he did place either 2nd or 3rd, getting to the next round of pools.

moss was 4th seed missing getting out of pools by 1 game

sharky was not able to make it out of pools either

tommy green shirt was decimated by RAIN, narrowly got 2-0d by dark peach but based on the rest of his matches, he still has a small chance to get out of pools.

 

[BluePeachy100]

You have any idea where I can get a picture of it, though? Or is it in a match?

 

[da K.I.D.]

nahh dude, its all in my mind.

 

[Tomato]

Wow nice, good job everyone. Any word on 1337-0 & Mako?

 

[1337-Zero]

Wow nice, good job everyone. Any word on 1337-0 & Mako?

I got *****. I had no idea what to do against Jband (I didn't realize he was so good, I barely touched him [btw Luigi?, he has guaranteed Up-Bs on Ness? news to me...].
Meep never Fox'd me, he went IC's both of our matches. I ALMOST got a match off him 2nd game (I PKT2'd both his Climbers killing them, then failed to F-throw gay him on Delfino) CGs were never an issue since he kept messing up (or I air broke, that happened a lot O_O).
Chaos Marth went Marth first game (double-blind) and I beat him. Then CP'd me as MK on Brinstar which I LOST (Really angry about that) then beat me on whatever I cp'd (tired, can't remember, kinda funny I could only beat his Marth lol).
Nuke was tougher than expected, Diddys took me by surprise overall. I managed to pull out a 2-1, but it was wayyy too close for me to be happy.
Woodman was on his last legs by the time he fought me. I beat his Jiggs, then he switched to Sheik and I beat him. He wasn't tough, but he made I LOT of mistakes that I don't think he would've made under different circumstances.

Mako's pool didn't go very well from what I heard. Traitor prolly didn't pick Ness anyway (j/k Mako )

I'm not pleased, but I wasn't a total loss. The only matches I really felt good about were my friendlies with SSR (Peach main btw) and .Com. I read SSR a lot and baited Toads for PSImag heals, and .Com and I had a "just for practice" set that lasted 15mins with each match being really close (he ended up 2-1'ing me).

I wanted to read the people in my pool but I just couldn't keep up with them. I'm really not as far along as I thought I was. I need to put in way more practice, I truly don't think I should've been eliminated (Jband I didn't stand a chance (awesome dude, though), but I def. could've taken Meep and Chaos who, btw, are truly kind and respectable members of the Smash community).

Still, No johns. I'll work, get better, win some smaller stuff before I take on another big one.

 

[da K.I.D.]

Cmarth beat me in pools at apex 1 so im not surprised. I think he might have gotten out of second pools as well.

jb andrew plays luigi?

remember kid, we play bad characters, so we have to work twice as hard and play much better than people who play characters like ICs and mk to achieve the same things. I know im looking at 2011 shaky right now. so you just gotta keep at it and get there.

 

[x13mako]

how have things been going on the melee side?

Mako's pool didn't go very well from what I heard. Traitor prolly didn't pick Ness anyway

If I had gone Ness (and played a bit smarter) I might have taken Keitaro to game 3 at least. I think I used Ness both matches vs PatG as well.

Overall I got 4th in pools getting 2-0'ed by Keitaro, PatG, and EEvisu.

 

[PieDisliker]

lol we have a ton of people that barely don't make it out of pools for the first round at nationals/internationals. Just a little bit harder work and we could have more NYS rep in the second round of pools! :D

Oh yeah, and his Luigi was crazy too. Half of his kills on me were UpBs >_<. I kinda felt confident since I'd beat SSR's Luigi pretty good, but JBand was def. not the same case. (It was funny, 'cuz he air dodges when landing after EVERY JUMP. I didn't think he was that good because of that since I used to do that, but I'll never think that again).

Thanks Goggles, I just gotta try really hard to win at Cura's fests or at least learn read what people are doing most of the time.

 

[PieDisliker]

[VibeSlyph]

I was really hyped about my first pool tho. I think I could have made it cause' I was beastin' over wifi yesterday x_x

Also, 1337-0, I'll deff play you more :3

 

[Gaia_x]

and leet air dodge into the ground is really good with lugi

 

[da K.I.D.]

snakeee beat june in pool one got 3rd in pool 2. losing to coney (mdva ddd) and kingkong (canadian bowser wtf?)

but san, snakeee and dr.g (wtf really?) are in bracket.

and next time we all go to a national, yall need to let me make the teams cause you guys suck balls at picking your own partners.

Lol.

I can't think of anything to say to this xD.

 

[Gaia_x]

I can. Goggles u suck at teams. Badly. If anyones giving advice for teams it's me. Also bracket update

Round 1. Drg vs lain. And San vs doom

 

[da K.I.D.]

1. dont get a big head because you can play metaknight and get carried by san in teams.

2. san lost first round.
EDIT
3. dr.g lost as well

 

[Gaia_x]

1. Uve teamed with San Neil and even done money matches with dr g and still can't win. While I've won money matches with Neil snakeee sharky acton beta and ive won tournaments with snakeee san and asylum. And I won more doubles than u have singles and doubles combined. So get at me. And if San can carry me how come he can't carry you? Looks like im the lighter backpack.

Edit. And I've won a tournament here with omr

 

[da K.I.D.]

so youre saying you can team with sharky and beat me and a partner of my choice in a money match?

cus thats what It sounds like youre saying.

 

[Gaia_x]

No i'm just saying you suck at doubles

 

[Spamus43]

And if San can carry me how come he can't carry you? Looks like im the lighter backpack.

****, Cura's gettin' off

 

[Sheth]

MONEY MAAAATCH.
I've actually like never seen Cura play doubles almost at all, so I really can't say anything there, but I wouldn't say goggles is trash at teams once a match starts. He's pretty good at managing conflict since he can get around and change the flow up pretty fast on those zippy feet.

Also, 1337, weegee does have unblockable B+UP followup on ness, yeah. It's only close to unblockable on many characters, but ness bounces high enough from a solid jab1 hit. Also, regarding airdodging at the ground, weegee has a lot of really amazing buffer opportunities if you land that way, so it can be great mindgames. Nothing is more confusing than a weak hit nair to an almost instantaneous chop-kill. Get at me more at events this year, you'll learn the weegee matchup and I'll learn how to deal with ness, who stomps all over my DK anywho.

 

[Gaia_x]

San is the only one from upstate left in bracket he is playing razor now and has won game one

Edit San wins and will either play chu logic or gnes

 

[Gaia_x]

Ally just lost to the olimar player from japan brood

 

[VibeSlyph]

Rain just lost to Lee martin.

Edit: Shado vs. Rain. Winner gets into top 8.

Edit: San won first game of San vs. Gnes

Edit: San just won against Gnes.

 

[da K.I.D.]

San > texas.

also,

this just in
San =

Sexy

Azz

******

 

[VibeSlyph]

Rain won against Shado first game.

Brood vs. Lee martin is soon.

Rain won against Shado, VERY tight matches.

People are worried about lee losing to Brood, even though Brood said in the interview, he HATES Lucario, It's his worse MU.

Lain made it to top 8.

San lost to Atomsk
