Kayane Needs Your Help to Get to Tougeki SBO (Japan)

A BIG THANKS to everybody who donated. I stop the donation now, I have received money enough ! Those who wanted to donate later, i'm fine now, just the fact that you wanted to help makes me happy.
Your support really touches me. I feel that even if there are a lot of anger and hate around me, there are still good and caring persons who also love fighting games, and this is very important for me to continue living in this world.

I am very grateful and I will train hard to win SBO.

Did I want Kayane, a French player to win an American SBO qualifier? No. Is there something not classy about this? Not at all. This isn't a hippie bonfire, this is a competitive fighting game where one side loses and one side wins. People have the right to choose sides, nothing wrong with this. If she's such a pro player she should have a tough skin. Hell, I walk into tourneys knowing no one wants me to win. It shouldn't hurt anyone's feelings.

Yo, real talk! As an American, It's just an unsettling feeling that someone from France will be representing the U.S. Obviously we were all rooting for America, just as much as France was rooting for Kayane, or the Japanese rooting for Tira player. No hard feelings, it just kinda sucks. Apparently, America is just bad at SC5.

I think some of the comments in this thread are just friendly jabs at how bad America got murked.

I don't mean to knock anyones hustle, but 2nd place MLG? $3,600 right? Just wondering, that's all.
 
2nd place MLG : 3600$, then after Tax ? Probably around 2700$, just as Keev winning 6000$ = around 4600$ in fact.
A trip from France to US for MLG? : at least 1200-1300$
I've travelled twice for MLG, which cost me around 2600$. I definitely can't live thanks to cash price, even if it seems quite cool, don't forget Keev and me have to pay expensive trip, whereas all MLG participants are from US.

The money I earn thanks to MLG is simply used to go in more SCV International tournaments, having this FRANCE/USA rivalry because this makes hype in tournament, and this kind of rivalry is definitely needed to make the tournament interesting and keep the game alive.
