Fighting Games Weekly | Dec 30 - Jan 5 | Rest in peace, Nelson "Remix" Reyes

this was a few years back. my father and i were watching a saints away game with buck and troy aikman commentating. i forget the game but basically someone was having issues with their cleats. troy, unsolicited, offered this gem that i cannot forget.

"You know, they have all these different cleats, quarter inch spikes, 3/4 inch spikes, and half inch spikes. Im just glad the trainers know about that stuff because I dont understand the difference."

my father and I stopped. looked at one another, and we both, in unison, folded our hands over our faces.
 
so guys i came in a little late. is EMP complaining about people in the west coast trying to runa charity even to pay for REMIX's funeral?
 
"oldmanwatts: if these mother fuckers want to get down lets fucking get down. ill beat both their ass at the same time and take bets on it. whatever i win ill donate to nelson's family. how bout that mother fuckers"

Right out of the chat.

I said GAWDDAMN!
 
"I'm fuckin right here, bro."

goddamn wat is going onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

What the hell is Triforce even going on about
 
This.

THIS RIGHT FUCKING HERE.

This is why people don't wanna put money into the FGC. This is the internet version of a fistfight at a wake, over stupid shit that could have been squashed privately. This makes everyone look bad.
 
Watson seems like one of those old 90s heads kinda hanging on in his old ways of doing things(including holding on to an arcade beyond most reasonable logic). Probably ranks high on Jazz-ism's real scale. You'd think eventually we be over this, there was like a million ways you could have handled this besides making a big stream and calling dudes out and saying they were fuckin' faggots, ya know

but here we are
 
This Watson archive is embarrassing. Even the accusations sent his way do not prescribe a retaliation of this magnitude.

Delete the evidence or keep this as yet another example that people need to get their shit together before they bring everything down with them?

EDIT: Oh god he made it into a west coast vs. east coast donation thing at the end. I cant
 
How can folks here complain about e-drama when a lot of you watched the OBS and crap? They do it for you, and you thank them by spreading the word like this.
 
I mean I don't even know the win percentage of ChrisG. In any other sport or game that is just ridiculous. In DOTA 2 you have individual win rates of heroes on a monthly basis for pro matches along with team stats and even individual player stats.

Hell they even have proper match up stats so if I want to look up Dendi's record of using Queen of Pain against Alliance's S4 Nightstalker.. I can get those stats. Where the hell can I get ChrisG's Morrigan versus FChamp's Dormammu stats? Nowhere that's what's up.
Aren't Dota statistics readily available because there exist tools to parse through replays? That's what I gathered from the segment about the factoid guy during TI3, at least.
 
What the hell is going on?

- Yipes (feat. Triforce) accused Watson via Facebook of embezzling funds for the upcoming charity tournament for Nelson, then delete the post
- Watson gets heated, makes a 10-minute rant spilling some details about how both of them are pieces of shit for the accusation, calls them faggots, etc. He says he'll accept an apology from Yipes by 10 PM PST, but he's done with Triforce.
- ....that's it
Professor Beef: No response?
To what? This whole nonsense?

Business as usual in the FGC.

right, pretty much every number and event in the game is recorded and available to examine, and everything is tied to accounts
