Cross Assault Thread: Get Cross, taste Salt (SFxT Reality Show)

I actually think Dr. Subzero is hilarious. I agree he had the best salt mine interview and the best personality. I think he ultimately is a good guy, a view supported when he gave Miranda his swag and all that. He generally has a good attitude to boot. The gamer girl nudes thing is just part of his character, I don't believe they are actually his ex girlfriends. I think I remember him saying his friend Shogo was in charge of all of that and actually putting them up whenever he said "release the next batch!" or whatever.

I know personally I laughed pretty heartily whenever he said "Release the next batch!" or "Shoutouts to my #1 fan Jebailey!" (Whether that was a manufactured rivalry or not). Those catchphrases just became running jokes for his character. The fact that he would answer literally any question the stream monsters gave him (whether the questions and/or answers were serious or not) was also just inherently funny. I think he definitely brought the entertainment value to the show without crossing the line like Aris did.

My choice for winning this would definitely be either Subzero because of just how entertaining he has been or Renic because the dude is honestly underrated and works so hard at it.

when did he say that? i missed it D:
 
I'll grow on you.

I was trying to say if strike wasn't banned, he probably would have been #2 on that list, which is all I meant by that.

As for who I'm rooting for. I'm actually rooting for Dr. Sub Zero to win it all. At first I was rooting for Renic because he looked like he wanted it the most and was working hard to try and win it all. Dr. Sub is just the feel good story at the moment. He came off looking pretty bad at first, but he took it like a boss and came back with a vengeance. He put in the time to improve and when he got his opportunity, he made the best of it and got back into the competition. And best of all he showed a great gesture towards Miranda by offering the prizes he was awarded to her.

Nerdjosh was easily the best player on the show and if he wins it then I'd be happy for him as well. Same with Hornett. But I guess I'm rooting for Josh more after Sub Zero because it may benefit Spooky as well.

oh dude, I know. I was doing a bit. No worries.
 
The problem is that what Aris is talking about there and what the furor is about aren't one and the same. "Earning respect" has nothing to do with behaving with a modicum of decency.

Not only that but it fails to appreciate the context in which the words happened.

He sexually harassed a girl, and then several days later within earshot of the same girl goes on to defend sexual harassment in the fighting game community.

Fucked up, man.

I already miss the show:lol

I have to admit that they made the right choices with the players, relatively unknown and not top players. The only thing they did wrong was not putting Alex Valle as the Team Tekken coach, they had some legit players, with Valle's coaching the matches between the teams would've been much more exiting.
 
Well this thread is slowing down and the controversy has spilled into the rest of the Gaming Forum. So with that said, here is the updated Cross Assault Hall of Shame top 20

Personally I ended up with 85. Not bad but I'll do better this weekend for Final Round, I promise you that GAF. Unless I attend it, it'll be a 5 hour drive from where I live in NC but I'm seriously thinking about it.

we should all play sfxt. it looks like a good game.
The voice of logic in a sea of salty tears.
I love that srk article, Inkblot is the shit.
Yup, he addressed alot of issues and put some perspective on the "actual" FGC and some things just can't be tolerated in any community. It's a nice change from everyone who's reposting "Sexual Harassment in the FGC" rather than addressing this behavior as a whole in the general gaming population.

lol I tune into the stream and all I hear is TRIFORCE going :


"SIFYUSOIFYSIOHDFIOLWHDOWUDHOWUDHSAKDSD...she left her ID at my house"

Joe still can't grasp that Skype technology haha. This is what he was talking about when he was going to "keep it positive".

haha damn now triforce coming correct and owning the verbal competition. This is pulling 2300 viewers less than the Cross Assault drama. Joe am cry.
 
The last few pages of this thread makes me think we need a general fgc thread where we can talk and bullshit about everything going on in the community.

Well, Dr. Subzero did respond to a question asking if would have sex with Miranda or Sherry (or something like that) by saying he was going to roofie them.

I honestly missed that one. Needless to say I don't think he ever sexually harassed either of them.
