[Dec 3, 2011] North East Championships XII (Philadelphia, PA)

I don't really care if I did play your Setsuka or not, that was far from the point of the post.

The point of my post was that the sentence of yours that I quoted was hypocritical.
 
How dare you not play me at your best during casuals!

At one point LP asked me if he should continue to play hard, to which I said sure. Even though I was getting my ass kicked I didn't necessarily think he was playing his best. But he still asked, which shows not even he wants to go all out all the time. Besides, AA BB Sophi needs more love.
 
It's fine if someone doesn't play their best against me in casuals. I just mainly have a problem with people wasting my time by playing a character that they don't know how to use.
 
I don't know how to play Soph? Hey, maybe you were on fire that night; the yomi was too strong. I did not realize you felt so insulted, though, and for that I am sorry.
 
for the simply fact because me and jaxel want it done that way. With jaxel streaming 3 games saturday he won't have the time to stream everything sc including finals. So we will finish up behind the scenes and do top 4 on sunday. Top 4 will take 2 hours to complete anyway. thats gives you plenty of time to do whatever you want on snday anyway. Be it sc5 or other games.

No offense. As a community who make up the tourneys? Soul Calibur has been getting shitted on for a while and it still seems to continue. Top players dont and shouldnt make the rules however, we should have some say so about the format but not the final say. As a community we should vote on how the format is going to be unless it is something like EVO, but there are dedicated times for the final 8 which is the only tourney that is usually being played at the time. I understand if that's the plan, but tell us that's the way it's going to be because we that's what you want. If that's the case I'm not sure if I can continue to support tourneys like this and possibly my last big tourney on the EC if this is the case. I would pull out but people in the community helped me and other big names decided to come due to the fact they were called out in a big way. I know RTD and a few others that played a big part in hyping this tourney up to be what it is after talking to me. I'm going to start a thread about this kind of events, I refuse to participate in anything like what RTD described to me from DEV.

Also, about the spots that everyone is arguing about and fighting for, we will make the best decision for the US team. It's cool to want to be on the team but will that increase our chances of winning?

Blackstar: If you feel you want to be on the team you can take my spot if you can place higher than me at the tourney or beat me in a mirror. We do not need two Xia on the team. Furthermore, if you can beat Malek in tourney or a ft10 that will put you on the team.

Eli: There are more experienced Ivys out there like Linkrkc, NFK, and Woah. If you place higher or beat the ones that are considered you can have it.
I will address the rest in a lil bit. A small tourney proves nothing if you can beat your fellow players in the US, how can you do against people we are challenged about. SU owns a lot of US players, but didnt do so hot in the world tourney, these are things that should be considered.
 
I thought SU wasn't going anyway. Anyway if I'm not mistaken in the world tourney(france) he placed with top 11 or might of been 13. In a tournament of that scale and with the talent level so high not many could of done better.
 
Bullshit. When I first played you at Summer Jam I beat your Setsuka and your other characters in casuals, and you ran to Sophi and threw me off with a shitty AA BB Sophi. The whole time I stuck with my main, Vader, and played my best. I felt like I was wasting my time against you, even when I played you again in casuals and took down your shitty AA BB Sophi since I knew what to expect. Biggest waste of time ever. If I ever play you again in casuals, please use your main and play your best against me, or at least don't use a character that you have no idea how to use properly. I don't like feeling like my time is being wasted playing you.

I didn't read the rest of your post, nor anyone elses wall of texts about this whole casuals vs tournament debate. Can't believe you guys are actually debating this.

No offense, but how you going to jump on LP switching characters when you did the same against me... ? If Vader is ur main stick with him.. Dont talk about LP switching from Setsuka (if he did use her) when you switch to App... Even tho you play them both, Vader is your Tournament character (Your Main)

Vader couldn't handle "MY" Taki huh? Lol 8P
 
I have to agree with Mick, saying "it's like that because we want it that way" doesn't resonate well. While I understand that it's ultimately up to the organizers, and I appreciate what you guys do for us, to flat out say "it's our way or the highway" without even in acknowledging what the players want, is like a big F U them.

There is a reason there are problems that arise between owners and players in organizations like the NBA.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, don't forget about the players. Because while it's true that without the organizers the players wouldn't have anything, it's also true the other way around.

Read my post again. I have no problem with someone not using their main. What I have a problem with is a person using a character that they have no idea how to use properly after I travel from another country to play them. Just imagine if you came to Canada and instead of me using one of my 11 characters that I know how to use well, I use Sophitia who I don't know how to use properly, and just base my game on AA and BB. I don't think you would be too happy either.
