[Jul 17, 2015] Skullgirls EVO 2015 Side Tournament (Las Vegas, NV)

I think ill make this my general shout out post cuz why NOT

@render I appreciate you dog, you my bruh. You did me right all weekend and I thank you for it. Also you ran the tournament which is cool of you since you probably shouldn't have to do that.

@Mike_Z quit giving me your passive aggressive shit jerk <3

@Nekro_Surge it was nice to actually see you again lol.

@Dolfinh you are pretty damn good man, you know im gunna be watching you on that SGDQ bruh

@BrandX+ no shout out after I bought you fries? cold blooded~

@cybik you a cool dood, thanks for them fist bumps

@Weatherbee hi weatherbee

@RemiKz you seem like a cool dood, sorry we didn't really talk much or anything during evo

I need to ask people's names more often, most of the people I talked to I don't really know who they are orz, I didn't even know I was talking to @BrandX+ until like well after EVO lmao


NEVER FORGET
wish I could figure out a better way to link this video
 
can someone explain me what is the deal between skullgirls and Evo? the organizes don't like us?

EVO generally doesn't care about games that don't draw enough players or meet their own mysterious and inconsistent criteria for "main game material." They also prioritize games whose publisher drops a bunch of money as a sponsor. The pervading theory about P4A vs UNIEL is that Atlus, P4A's publisher, paid money to be a sponsor and to make P4A a main game, and EVO did so to the detriment of UNIEL, which had consistently proven that it had a much stronger scene.

I don't believe that EVO makes their decisions explicitly to screw over the SGC. I think that's the narrative people like to subscribe to because it makes them feel like a victim. But they're not malicious. They're self-serving.

Also WOW, still no mention on SH that EVO even happened, or a link to the hype as fuck finals. Was a great moment for some community bonding, and Madcatz made good on their promise in an effort to heal the wounds from last year. Seems like news to me.

I guess I'll keep passive-aggressively whining about it.
you my bruh

UNDERWATER SQUAD <3 <3 <3
 
Seems like news to me.
Is it allowed for anybody to start a thread in the News Section? I thought it was like moderators only, or Flotilla's turf (lookit all dem green Galifianakis avatars). If a commoner like me is permitted, I might write something up. Although it will be from a dozens-of-states-away-stream-watcher perspective. I'd do a short summary, spoiler box top 8 and embed a video. Maybe highlight a top 5 hype moments to get people interested in looking closer.

What moments are worth listing? Anyone wanna add to the list?

For example, the universe-shaking battle of the Big Bands, Bang Camaro vs. MikeZ. Here's a timestamp link. Underneath the announcer screaming into the mic, you can hear Bang play the John Cena tune (apparently titled "The Time Is Now") for his Satchmo Solo level 5 blockbuster. Major style points for ending a match, but MikeZ escapes the brutal brass beatdown with only a sliver of life, and then crushes Bang with a Strike Up the Band level 3 blockbuster to win the round.
 
Aggressive-passive shit is a go!

whats the difference tho
 
Passive-aggressive is whining about something without outright expressing your desire.
So aggressive-passive would be yelling about things for which you have no desire, I guess...? That just sounds like the internet to me. :^P
 
I-I guess thats better?????
 
@Weatherbee Once I figure out dudley combos into super, I'd totally be down for another ft200. Thanks for playing so long. You must really love 3rd strike... o_o

Ahhhhahahah. MWUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! (Ya a little bit). For sure! Practice those confirms and pressure! Got a pretty good mind for the game, just need to get comfy with it.

@Weatherbee hi weatherbee
Hi Bang

@Weatherbee : You are like the best friend I wish I had dude. Hanging out with you is like hanging out with a high school friend. You are funny and you still rock that awesome Painwheel/Big Band team (Great games btw!). You are a chill guy and I hope we can hang out again very soon.
Was nice to see you enjoy yourself and I'm glad you came out after all! If you make it out or vice versa, we'll definitely get in another good set.

@Bit_Strife Once again a truckload of thanks for hosting the Salty Suite! Was a ton of fun, and you were a helluva nice guy! Hope to see you again at a future event!

@Negus Eyoel and the rest of CenCal. Jesus Christ. Just... jesus. Ya'll are too much, glad you guys could swing by and hang out!

@render For always being Render and always being kinda the best as a person and TO!

@guitalex2007 and Heather, Always glad you two make it out. You're both goofy and fun and dang we didnt get to play... any sets? NEXT TIME!

Everyone else I didn't talk with much sorry I'm such an introvert but I wholeheartedly appreciate everyone and anyone that came out to play and hang out and be a part of the SGC! Good show by everyone involved!
 
I know we already talked with Render and Mike about it privately about this earlier, but might as well let this thread know too since none of the staff has bothered yet when I checked this thread.

There is gonna be an Evo summary posted up soon [it's pretty much done already outside of some edits] on front page. There was complications on our end that prevented coverage like we did for past Evos here. Not an excuse, but it is what it is not gonna BS. I can assure you all we have no hidden agenda/vendetta against Evo where we would boycott coverage or something because the truth is far from that. This won't happen again and we already have taken steps to rectify this.
 
Kongu's Late AF Shout outs post.

Stale Crowd: "Yay..."

@render Thanks for dealing with my annoyingly busy schedule and for rating my Ant's sandwich. I promise I'll register for less games and make my own signature sandwich for ya. (You alright mustard right? :P)

And to the two EightySixed staff members (whom I sadly can't remember their names) for giving me a slight slight discount on the two shirts I bought after I unfortunately lost the first pair. But hey, it at least meant that LZ got $9 from me in the end.
