Hey you guys remember when this site was fun? Me either.
This site had its fun times: Like when it crashed for a month, came back, and with the site at an all time low (in terms of participation), the game's future in jeopardy (we were unsure whether MLG would pick it up for Dallas), and an embarrassing invincibility glitch surfaced, REO saw fit to stir the pot, troll the shit out of the site, demand for said glitch to be allowed, gave the game even more negative publicity, and participated on the behalf of another player in high stakes online tournament with serious money on the line, only to throw a tantrum and complain about some of the attitudes of top players a couple of months later for exercising their right to refuse to participate in a MM.

I love watching REO play, and he's one of the most entertaining personalities in the community. Likewise, he's the best player this game has ever seen. But people with glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

Cold day in hell...
Man this thread took a nose dive into what the fuck territory. Anyways in relation to the actual topic of the thread it's really awesome for James to do that for the community and really for PL and REO. Shame it didn't happen but jamessmk deserves a lot of credit for trying. Now if the rest of our community on all sides of respective retarded arguments (Especially if those who have nothing to do with it would butt out, I understand why those actually involved might be upset) we could have one big collective unbunching of the panties and get on with our day. The drama solves nothing and if you listen to the video that's clearly not why it was made.

I did not call him out and I don't think I said anything too bad about his Jade. Here is what happened. I was in that stream to root against K-Frog and was saying nothing about NR. They on commentary talked about his match at NEC with Soonk and they said had NR played Kitana he'd have beaten Soonk. I took issue to this. It's not logical to say that just because Kitana is an overall better character than Jade that he would do better against Soonk. Soonk trains against my Kitana and I'm confident he'd have won. Like the harshest thing I said was "Soonk would body his Kitana!" or something. It's fair game for them to pump up their guy but it's fair game for me to hype my boy. This got turned into be CALLING OUT NR. Dumb. Then I talked to NR and he said he didn't even really care about the shit talk and just wanted to get games in, to which I said I couldn't at WB cause I won't be there but we can play sometime in the future. There is no drama between us.
That was pretty much the point of my post. If for nothing else, to try to lower some of the salt between you and Chance. And for the record, I don't agree with their assessment of that NEC matchup. I think it's safe to say that soonk has much experience vs. Kitana thanks to you and little vs Jade since to my knowledge, GGA doesn't have a Jade main so in my mind Russell made the right decision.

I just saw a chance to try to quell some of the drama. Thanks for replying and I'm pissed that I won't get to meet you at my first American major :(

I was dumbfounded when I put up 100$ for Charity in Phil's Charity Stream last year for PL to play REO online just for shits n giggles and a little charity promotion and he was too good for that too even after he verbally agreed.

All the LBSH bs is getting old and also the PL apologists too
