Commissar SFLUFAN Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 This sounds like a spectacularly bad idea for a fighting game tournament where every frame is of maximum importance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I guess suspicions would arise if some scrub started dominating Daigo or something. But since everyone is watching it would probably be pretty easy to DQ someone for it.

A single dip in connection will cause someone to lose because of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacon Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Yeah, I just would have canceled EVO. As a viewer, I have no interest in online matches. Especially for shit like Smash. I won't be watching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spawn_of_Apathy Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 A big part of the enjoyment of watching Evo matches is the crowd excitement during clutch or big plays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crispy4000 Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Smash Ultimate officially dropped for games without absolute dumpster fire netcode. Warms my heart to see proper effort rewarded.

I do wonder what will happen when larger and larger melee tournaments start getting organized online, which seems almost inevitable what with the state of the world and the massive netplay improvement.

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Speaking of EVO... EVO suspends one of its organisers over accusations of paedophilia and sexual harassment Quote EVO organisers have moved to suspend one of their own following paedophilia and sexual harassment allegations. Earlier today, Mikey, a fighting game competitor, shared his account of repeated incidents with EVO organiser Joey “Mr. Wizard” Cuellar. In a Twitlonger story, Mikey recalled some of his time at the Southern Hills Golfland arcade in the late 90s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy4000 Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 The Smash community in general is now knee deep with accusations of pedophelia. Turns out the tournament scene for fighting games staring Pikachu and Mario are a haven for abusers. Don’t even want to joke about it. 30 year olds raping 15 year olds and the like.
