Tried hopping on P4A on Live the other day, played the same three people over and over. I love the game, but it's a ghost town. :(

I remember when VxG was first announced, there were tournaments that were considered to be qualifiers for it, and I thought that was the only way to go. I don't know if I missed something, or if it was just poorly communicated. I wonder if other people thought that and that's why they didn't sign up. (Most likely people just don't have the time/money to go)

A list of all of the problems with VxG was posted in the TYM thread, which was taken from 4chan or something. I'm guessing it's a work in progress:



For a second I thought "Man, sucks about the fighting games, I wonder if the other competitions are doing better?" but I guess this answers that!

To be fair stuff like "Chris G is already complaining" and "Haunts can't stream" make this list seem a little less objective.

True. Since it's apparently from 4chan, I take it with a grain of salt. I'm sure we'll get plenty of stories from the people there, though!

This poo poo is honestly not even worth it at this point. Chrisg will forever be a huge baby who will never change. Same for a lot of other top players.

E: like flash metroid was going off saying stupid poo poo on twitter this week. None of these people will ever learn.

Flash's was as least funny for James Chen flipping out at him. I've always heard that James had an angry streak in him, but I never believed it until now.

When you're as big of an entitled idiot as FlashMetroid is (without really doing anything to earn that entitlement..), I can hardly blame James.

I don't blame him either. Flash was saying some really stupid stuff, and James was right in calling out his bullshit. I just always thought of James as an always happy guy with a penchant for (hilariously) groan-worthy puns.

Maximilian is more miss than hit for me, but I do credit him for teaching me how to begin to understand higher level play through his MvC 3 videos. A few of his jokes were funny, but nothing beats Mike Ross's expressions whenever he got salty or when he's trying to hide his disappointment with Gootecks.

Taking it seriously is probably a better way of phrasing it. When they do runbacks on EA, you know they want to win, but I highly doubt Gootecks would start laughing so hard he physically cannot continue playing because of a stage background at a tournament. (The greatest moment in excellent adventures history)

This sounds familiar, but I don't remember what happened.

I dunno if it was just about the guides. According to UltraDavid, they had a good chance of winning a case against Capcom, in fact Capcom started to act a lot nicer when he sent them his arguments, so it's weird that they didn't try to follow up on it. I think a lot of the reason why everything ended was from other internal conflicts. Weren't they having issues with TheStream.tv over Cross Counter for a while? And not to mention Mike Ross leaving Complexity was a huge blow to them. I can imagine them just not having the heart anymore. But then again maybe the internal conflicts were all about the guides, so who knows.

Low Tier God is currently having a loving meltdown in response to Viscant challenging him to a $500 money match, using an impressive array of excuses (to avoid outright saying "No") and even threatening real physical violence. WNF stream on Wednesday might hopefully be really interesting.

How did this all start? Did Low Tier God call Viscant out or something, and then Low Tier ducked when Viscant replied?

Yipes injured his knee while saving a guy's life by trying to get his leg out of train tracks. Further proof that he owns, and I hope he has a speedy recovery. :unsmith:

What do you mean "trying"

Yipes' words, not mine:

"I reinjured my knee saving a man's life trying to pull him out of the train tracks, crazy how people sat back and did nothing to help him."

Guess he either got it out, or the guy got himself free eventually.
