I have to re listen to what we were saying, but no not "marvel" levels, I'll actually come back to this after I listenWe failed as a community to get injustice on marvels level? Just want to make sure I understand @TakeAChance @Jimmypotato
Around the time Tom Brady was being sympathized with for not being able to get games, I had to turn it off. Tom lives in an area filled with players and never goes to locals or even casuals gatherings, and even smashed his pad at CEO then went on the stream and talked about how disappointed he was that he “couldn’t compete”. Delusion is the only thing that is preventing him from “getting games”.
Have you guys been to any majors lately? No one is in a dour mood or suggests that things are toxic. Everyone seems to be having a good time, laughing, and playing casual games…pretty much everything that was in the “olden” days. What’s changed? I went to tournaments for both games and I have noticed almost no difference other than the top players being different, that’s about it.
The problem I keep having is that you guys are pretty much the biggest spreaders of negativity, but then push all the negative parts of the forums off on the “Hollywood” top players. Who are these poor victims, told they are scrubs and to never return again? And even better, who are these players writing them off like they are nothing (and is not P2W)?
Moreover, the rose colored look at the MK days is pretty interesting. I might be remembering poorly, but I do remember heated rivalries between West and East, a top player being called a fraud for losing (PL) and forum regulating. NOTHING has changed, except now the game “sucks”, so everyone’s super bitter. I don’t understand where you guys are coming from.
I don’t think any of these “top players” and “mean girls” that you complain about are really so untouchable; if you go to a tournament, these guys are generally running casuals, watching matches and participating in the fun. No one is being isolated, no one is being blown up, none of the fears you guys are relating are even remotely true at tournaments, so why be AFRAID to go?
Even the forums, like I don’t see what is bad. Guys like Ra Helios, who go on and on about their online sets and don’t play offline are rightfully criticized for their incorrect assumptions about matchups. Chance, you yourself were spamming the forums with the idea that Adam was whack and “The Jade of the game”, when he was broken and almost responsible for killing it. Basically people are getting ribbed for saying outlandish and goofy statements, and then everyone goes back to not caring who posts what.
It’s almost like you guys put a TON of stock into these attacks that you see as personal, when really most are just getting your goat for being silly. And every time someone calls you out on the silly goose-ery, you guys pull the mean girls card and start playing the victim. You can’t have your cake and eat it. If someone asks how Chris G can place as high as he does with Arrow when no one else can, why immediately jump to being offended? I don’t understand.
Part of being competitors is being proud, and everyone really does think they know best and gets angry when people assume they don’t. You can’t acknowledge that you want to see MM’s and things settled “IN GAME” yet at the same time discourage shit talk and rival scenes. It’s completely bass ackwards. This sounds like the rhetoric of someone who’s not going to these tournametns and seeing that nothing has changed and only view the forums and everything as super serious business.
Is the current talk bleak? Yeah, but it’s not community killing like you guys are threatening and it’s really annoying that you guys spread doom and gloom and then point the blame on all these issues that really aren’t as big as you claim.
Not marvel levels.I have to re listen to what we were saying, but no not "marvel" levels, I'll actually come back to this after I listen
It kinda looks like hippo can only be on the show once a month, when he gets real crabbie, he sure has alot to say sometimes.Yo @KingHippo
You want on the show? I just thought I would offer. We really want guys who are willing to speak exactly what they feel.
You, @GGA Saucy Jack , @Qwark28 and all others are welcome anytime you wish. I'm sure it would be a great episode!
I met her at Atlanta Comic Con.But if you want a real man's woman, Sarah Jean Underwood.
I just googled Sara Jean Underwood.I met her at Atlanta Comic Con.
Also, Kate Upton is so overrated.
Took pictures with her tooI just googled Sara Jean Underwood.
You lucky, lucky bastard...
I think you missed the point of what he was writing. He was using we as a moniker for the general community not us.Wait a second, are you guys serious? You seriously are trying to have credibility as "Mid-tier voices" after your co-host Murphy said this?

...and you both "liked" it at the bottom? I mean don't piss down my back and tell me it's raining here fellas.
scroll up, I quoted jimmy's response to you@Jimmypotato @TakeAChance did you guys miss my post?
I haven't been on the show for a reason...... mainly because I have no interest in talking about anything they want to talk about.Wait a second, are you guys serious? You seriously are trying to have credibility as "Mid-tier voices" after your co-host Murphy said this?

But I do actually care about these two guys, so yeah..... when I said "we" in that post...... it was a general consensus of "everyone who posts here"I haven't been on the show for a reason...... mainly because I have no interest in talking about anything they want to talk about.
Nothing i said in that post is wrong. I've yet to see anyone do anything selflessly for NRS games to push them forward without doing something to hold them back (in a tournament context).
Nothing has changed in the "2nd" go around with an NRS tourney game. Not a single thing.
No one cares about each other... they only care about what you think of them.
thanks. must of missed the alertscroll up, I quoted jimmy's response to you
Thank you for sharing, I get it, you don't like us, but I find it nice that you follow us around TYM to make sure we and everyone else know it, I look forward to your next post about meAround the time Tom Brady was being sympathized with for not being able to get games, I had to turn it off.
