Ask me about my one regret

[J I Y U N A @jiyunaJP]

Buying entrants for your EVO game is a time honored FGC tradition and I won’t hear otherwise.

[1RegretBeetle @OneRegretBeetle]

Im not too keen on future events including a very public funding arms race. But who knows, maybe it's just me.

[1RegretBeetle @OneRegretBeetle]

My take on the RoA2 Evo situation is that I dont think it's a good thing to signal to the fgc that event choices which impact communities can be easily and transparently influenced by last minute $$$ drops. Just feels a bit tacky imo.

2XKO UPDATE:

After careful consideration, the new Teamfight Fuse will not be useable at CB2026.

Teamfight heavily impacts Duo vs Single team dynamics and CB can't combine players requesting to Duo this close to the event.

We're excited to see ya'll team up next time.

Not a fan of the mostly monochrome control panel trend though. Pretty sure that was started by the leverless trend. Just give us clear plexi please!

[1RegretBeetle @OneRegretBeetle]

It was cool to see all the new arcade sticks being shown off at evo japan. It definitely feels like sf6 has started a new wave of innovation for sticks, at least in japan. This is in contrast to the mostly leverless stuff the west has been getting in recent years

@disorder_unit Love that location!!

[JasensCustoms.com - Panzer Fight Stick @JasensCustoms]

I'm writing today with news that's difficult to share, and a request I never imagined I'd have to make.

This morning, I had every reason to be excited. After years of design work, the Panzer SLAB had finally reached production-ready status. The PCBs were programmed, the bottom pads had arrived, the screens fit, the wiring harnesses were built, the Brook Gen5X boards were ready to solder, and Angelica — my trusted assembly partner — was on hand to help get the first units out the door.

Then I started building one.

When I inserted the aux buttons, they sat flush with the case rather than rising above it. At first I assumed I'd sent the machine shop the wrong file, but the buttons matched the Panzer 4 spec exactly. The OLED sat too deep. The main HE PCB sat too far from the top panel. I inserted an HE switch, and the truth landed: every dimension that matters is offset by 5mm.

A small change made between the prototype and the final production case — one I made and verified myself — had a cascading effect I missed before I committed to manufacturing. The mistake is mine alone, not the machine shop's. Because each case is machined from a single block of aluminum, none of them can be salvaged or reworked. Every SLAB case in inventory has to be remade from scratch.

The cost of that error is roughly $15,000.

I'm not going to soften what that means for a business with margins like mine. Combined with several years of softening demand for high-end fight sticks, this is the kind of loss that genuinely threatens whether Jasen's Customs can continue. I'm not ready to make that decision yet, and I don't want to make it in the heat of the moment — but I'd be lying if I said it wasn't on the table.

Here's what I'm doing next:

I'm taking a day away from the bench to clear my head. SLAB presales are suspended effective immediately. On Sunday, May 10, I'll sit down and rework the case design, triple-checking every critical dimension before any file goes back to the shop. Once the corrected design is verified, every existing SLAB pre-order goes into production. After those orders are fulfilled, I'm not yet sure whether I'll continue producing the SLAB at all.

If you have a SLAB on order and the delay is too much, I completely understand. Reach out and I'll refund you without question — that simply reduces the remake count by one. If you choose to wait, you have my word: you will receive your SLAB. Taking care of the Panzer Brigade has always mattered more to me than any individual loss, and that hasn't changed today.

What I'm asking — and I don't ask lightly — is for help.

If you've owned a Panzer, if you've had a good experience with one of my sticks, if you believe in what Jasen's Customs has tried to be for the FGC, please share that. Tell someone. Post about it. Recommend it where it fits. The single thing that gives this business a real chance of weathering this is renewed interest from the community that built it alongside me.

Thank you for reading, and thank you for the support you've already given me over the years. It has meant more than you know, and right now it means everything.

一部タイトルのSWC予選、枠が前回と同じでかつポイント制ならまだしも「後出し」で突如、枠を減らしてきて更にポイント制とか前代未聞過ぎて度肝。
賞金が出る世界大会で急遽、選手枠が変更されて「ご了承ください」って言い放って後はだんまりって世界線は許されるのでしょうか。

予選へエントリ―出来るプレイヤーはスポンサーパワー、金、休日が多い人間に限られ結果、悪循環で生まれたトーナメント表の完成だ。
一般人、素人は滅多な事ではチャンスは与えない。
配慮は0でお前でなんとかしろよ精神。
「予選の枠の関係で～」なんて理由は、単にそこの軸に住まう担当者の圧倒的な力不足であり不適材。

サラリーマン���多いSWCタイトルは殆どのプレイヤーが詰んでて、本当の実力者が8名集まるのかすら最早分からなくなってしまった。
これで賞金を数千万円以上本当に用意するのか。
賞金を用意するスポンサーの金すら舐めてない？大丈夫？

何故毎回「こうやったらこうなるかもな…」って想像力が欠如してるの？大人のする事なの？
特定部門担当者の周囲の見えて無さ。
これは故意なのか、マジなのか分からない。
ただ、常日頃からユーザー全般を敵に回そうとする。
このままでは株主の方針ですぐに企業買収される可能性すら不安視される。

経営者目線でなくても素人目線で見てヤバイのなんて誰でも分かるでしょう。
誰かこの闇を教えてﾎﾟﾊﾟｲ！

Why do we do this to ourselves.
