You didn't hit a nerve chief, I'm just simply talking about a tactic that is useful to an extent online, remember? I'll be at the next tourney, maybe I can "flame-bait" some talented xbox live players into going to your guy's tournaments when they see mine and IGB's name on the brackets.
I look foward to it dude. Did you see my post on the previous page? The one you quoted here wasnt directed at you.
If you wont take it from me than at least listen to your own friend.
I didnt understand some of this post. But for what its worth, I will look forward to seeing you play on the stream.
He's my cousin, he was just messing around.
When we are at the tourney I am going to throw a Mame PC into a shower and hopefully Flame-Bait a few of the unhygenic heads into the shower. That way I dont spend the week of the 16-23rd laid up with the swine flu like last time
What kind of tournaments do you go to? Sounds horrible.When we are at the tourney I am going to throw a Mame PC into a shower and hopefully Flame-Bait a few of the unhygenic heads into the shower. That way I dont spend the week of the 16-23rd laid up with the swine flu like last time
Hes right actually Bone. In all the tournies Ive been to there has been a noticable "wall of funk". Some veteran tourny players told me that some people actually do this on purpose in an effort to throw there opponents off there game by using they're stink to get an edge. I kid you not.What kind of tournaments do you go to? Sounds horrible.
East Coast players stink I suppose.
I'm going to the tourney with a SARS mask and a bottle of Elmers glue, lmao!!When we are at the tourney I am going to throw a Mame PC into a shower and hopefully Flame-Bait a few of the unhygenic heads into the shower.

What the fuck? lol
I never said or meant by playing 20k matches that it gives me the experience to play offline at tournaments. You're misconstruing my comment, by that I meant this. I'm able to run into people online more than you are, especially nowadays and tell you about the techniques people use on XBLA or Kaillera. I never meant in anyway that because I've played 20K matches that I could win a tournament, at all. I never even thought that in my head, my point was the fact you may not know so much about techniques people use online. I'm sure you know about a ton of tricks, but you've sat here and debated over a remark I made that no one here can say is untrue, it's fact. That being that a player can get use to lag and use that to his advantage over someone who isn't use to lag. Therefore a aaRH isn't hard to them like it is to someone like you who plays online and isn't use to lag like they are.
REO, man am I glad you're coming to the tournament. You may have to crash at my place or Rob's place the night before though, because we're leaving my place at like 7am the latest. PM me your phone number later so I can contact you and get things in order.
You have your opinion of my gameplay, I have mine of yours as well. I will reserve mine as it really doesn't matter and will considered "Flame Baiting". You bring your A game and I will bring mine and we will just leave it at that.
The real "LOL" here is, my comment totally went over your head and your deduction is based upon your own guilt. It had absolutely NOTHING to do with who you were, but how you were playing then and there. Bass, you placed where I thought you would based on what I saw from you before and during your first matches of the tournament. I do this with ALL new players. I never saw Rich play before or knew who he was, and I expected him to place at least top 4 based on how he played offline and the other players there, and the only reason you beat him was because he didn't "show his hand" just as you said you didn't want to do before. If you beat him in casuals, and lost to him in tournament, and you were both online players, it's a wash right? Well no, because you lost to him where it counted. That's just how it is. Hopefully you both learned something, I know Rich did.MRIGOTBASS said:
Again, this doesn't mean anything to me. "20,000 vs 5000 speaks for itself" if it doesn't mean what it sounds like, they what does it mean? What it means to me is you played 20,000 people in a less accurate representation of the game than originally intended. There are no players who frequent Live anymore who would help me get better even if I played them in person, so practicing my existing tactics and timing online is 100% worthless to me, and will damage my offline play, which is infinitely more important since I compete offline. Even if I could play other top players all the time, it wouldn't help any of us to do so. Someone like Phil could benefit to an extent against me online, but it would only hurt my gameplay. Eventually it would even out and we'd have to take it to offline for the matches to make a difference again, and he'd have to catch up again. This is why we play in person. I can bet there are netplayers out there who live within a half hour of each other and would rather play online than meet up. It's just a personality profile that exists for online gamers, but not true fighting game players. The average fighting game player craves the experience of one on one in person competition, this is why the average MK player doesn't match up to the average fighting game player, since the overall desire from the community is not present, but being instilled by the growing groups of players and potential multi-regional activity. They thrive on it. FPS players are far less likely to desire meeting others in person, but they still do.SANS POWER said:
When someone deliberately contradicts facts because they want to feel better about their gameplay (personal gain and clouded judgment), I will lay all my cards on the table and say it's a cop out. Sans Power is wrong about a point he's trying to make, and there are plenty of other points he could make, and be right about, but he's focusing on something he's 100% WRONG about. There is no skewing on my part, I know more about the game than he does, this is something you both will have to accept even though you don't like it and at the same time would most likely be critical of that same point.MRIGOTBASS said:
I'm not trying to compete with your MK knowledge of the game, I'll flat out tell you that you know more about the game than I do. No one is going to argue that, not me, not IGB, no one. The fact is this, I don't care to know about the Frame-rates and the sprites and 1/6 chances you'll get when you try to punish an opponent after a recovery rate or whatever you guys talk. The comment about "20,000 vs 2,000 games" is not an insult to you or your talent of the game. It's just me commenting on the fact I'm on live more than you and run into more players, sometimes with lag than you do and that's because you choose not to play the game online. 100% of the time I play UMK3 it's online, well at least so far, so basically I run into more online players than you do and I was trying to talk about a tactic that is more effective to a player who is use to a delayed connection.
Players adapt to lag and delay differently from one another. DC HUSTLE is probably the best player at playing in delay. It's because he can adapt to the connection, probably because he's played over 70,000 matches on XBL. So I see your point from that aspect. But ILLEGAL EAGLE who's played over 85,000+ matches is terrible in delay. He's not that great in general, but he's said that he cannot adapt to delay. He even boots people from his lobby if they don't have green ping.
It definitely will be.
I know Rich knew who I was cause the dude has won a total of maybe 5 games against me on XBL EVER. Don’t take my word ask him. As a matter of fact after NEC i played him online (Yea purist Shock I know it doesn’t count) dude got babied every single time we played again ask him until he blocked me and will not play again. I am not going to sit here and make excuses but look at the video at NEC and look at any other video of me playing, I was stuffed into a fuckin stinky (and yes it bothers me when I cannot breathe because the guy bending over in front of me smells like open asshole), hot ass corner of a room, drove 350 miles straight to be there at 10 am or whatever and quite frankly was a little overwhelmed at the whole scene. Put it this way if the dude shows up again Ill smash him. Period
Ok well, hopefully for your sake you don't take an L by me or Sans, cause like I said, I have nothing to lose, you may lose your "Status Quo", and as far as showing up, come on dude you already know I'm showing up and due to the fact that I'm caked up, Sans will also be showing up.
Whoa, first of all old man everything I've said has gone way past your ponytail and I find it funny that you're sitting here trying to outwit us with your condescending remarks. You're reading between the lines and not what I mean, I've said what I meant probably 5 plus times and you still continue to misconstrue it further yourself in an argument you lost 3 pages back. My whole point was based around the fact someone get use to a delayed connection and use it against someone who isn't use to it, therefore aaRH isn't hard to pull off for them with lag. There, I've said that for the 100th time now. Juggs knows what I'm talking about, IGB knows what I'm talking, I think anyone who isn't argumentative will understand what I'm talking about, but for some reason you keep denying a SIMPLE fact and turning into something it's not, just stop.
And I am not here to talk shit, belive that. I give credit where credit is due. Your Kabal is fuckin sick, I already said that and will say it again. If you play online and would like to get in some games let me know some time, my AIM is ig0tbass with a zero not the letter o.
