Hate Speech War Report: Final Round XV

I'll have to say while FR gets a pass since they didn't expect it, the Evo circuit can't keep underestimating the 3d games and give us the shaft treatment. I play Marvel like many other people, but being 2d or 3d, or hell, capcom or otherwise shouldn't be given preferential treatment.

Long story short, if NCR does the same shit, MLG will start looking REALLY appealing.
 
the 3d games got the short end of the stick. they even posted kof13 pools which mind u had LESS players than sc5. i was one of those people who was constantly on edge because they "lost" my name and i had to hound the shit out of them and be worried for many hours because i didnt kno when i would be called. otherwise things were run to the best of their ability and im grateful but i still cant help but feel that we're second class citizens.
 
Overall i liked the event. It was really ran like a giant Tulsa tournament, good and bad. I'm used to it so maybe that's why.

I had FUN, to me that's big, in every game i joined. 16th in SCV which was a hugely satisfying thing, yet underwhelming at the same time. I got 9th in Blazblue as well almost defeating the best Bang in the U.S. in a sweet mirror match. And i did fairly well in Marvel, albeit the way i lost was disappointing.

The events tendency to DQ as fast as they did was sort of scary. I myself won 1 match in SCV and Marvel because of it and i NEVER like winning that way. Sometimes it's necessary but my SCV opponent was in KoFXIII which we all know takes forever so that isn't cool.

I was in pool 7, they never told me where i was, and yelled at anyone asking. I sat there waiting for HOURS and was the very last SCV match to be played that day because of it. The amount of waiting was annoying. With that in my mind already Marvel was delayed later than any game from any other event i'd ever been to AND they had to ask for more Marvel discs because they weren't prepared. I was in pool 2 of that game and that started 7 hours late. Because of this i couldn't leave to eat of anything and only by the graces of my crew did i get anything. The Tulsa crew than proceeds to dawg me after making them wait forever and then losing and not making it out of my pool for the rest of EVER.
Oh ya and within the delayed bracket we waited another hour for an opponent that wasn't even there so ya.......

HOWEVER the finals day was amazing to watch, losing as swiftly as i did in SCV with the worst performance in a match that i've ever shown was a blessing in disguise because for the first time that weekend i could move freely and so stuff. I didn't have to ask to go potty. And Marvel was a real treat to see. So i had fun, just with there were more casual areas around that weren't in hotel rooms.
 
Yo Hates, I had a blast talking with you about the game. Mind blowing stuff throughout the tournament, and I had a great time.

Not sure what you mean by the 'Evo circuit'. This was just one tournament. So there are specific details to consider. Did the same people organize all the tournaments at the event and put in less effort toward SC, or was it assigned to a different group and they failed? Stuff like that.

And I disagree that Marvel and AE2012 or whatever shouldn't get preferential treatment. It's not like they just get it randomly, those games consistently put in the numbers for both entrants and number of viewers.

What I'd like to know is what happened to the livestream. There was a schedule posted for SC5 to be on the second (FunkyP) stream and not only was it not on at the right time but it was on a different stream as well. Not that I'm complaining that Spooky streamed it instead. And I'm not even gonna complain all that much about it. I'd just like to know what happened.
