@thefatspaceman They could've, but VF is historically Sega's brand for such a thing.

I get what u mean but imo if they're not serving an entirely different niche (i.e. Soulcalibur vs Tekken both being Namco Bandai, but focusing on Weapons vs Martial Arts), brand recognition probably helps more

@JagsSBChampions @bobbysboucher @UnderdogNFL and as a bears fan I got a bridge to sell ya...

@szobogod @SolidSlug47 @Ponard3 @hayasaka_aryan people quickly forget that we went through a Biden administration where this was an afterthought.

the list would unquestionably implicate members of both sides. epstein has been connected to trump before, but he's also been connected to clinton. neither side wants the smoke.

@MickleChrom I hope this helps you reach a bit of clarity on why people "defend him", as you say, but in any case I will now disappear into the internet's depths again bc frankly the only reason im on here again was bc of the drama and i reminded myself of why I got off this hell app

[trombone! @nszTrombone]

@MickleChrom would like to impart this reddit post on to you because I found it enlightening as a fresh perspective.

@thenicksow @Slasher @kelseyLioness @geoguessr Of course, it stands to steal from us at all times under capitalism. Neither are great, obviously. But it is important to draw the line of where the government is actually directly involved because you could make this excuse about anything we profit from lol

[trombone! @nszTrombone]

@thenicksow @Slasher @kelseyLioness @geoguessr Like the connection between the EWC and the government is "Mohammad bin Salman (Saudi Crown Prince) literally started the EWC and the EWC Foundation nonprofit". Show me where the white house's esports nonprofit and equivalent event is. I will wait.

[trombone! @nszTrombone]

@thenicksow @Slasher @kelseyLioness @geoguessr First off, if you think TO's make massive bucks you're already operating under a false pretense. Second, this would always be true. "Judging fairly" in this case would mean that the US Gov. is funding a tournament by directly using a nonprofit (the EWC Foundation in this case).

Something special is happening in Champaign.

We are thrilled to announce the contract extensions of Bret Bielema and Brad Underwood.

@JamesLeeMann1 @SleeperHQ to be fair though, nba draft only has 2 rounds. I get ur point but also it's apples to oranges in that sense.

@ruri_polyverse @Awk20000 @Asmongold @Twitch @YouTube @Dexerto never mind didn't realize I'm talking to One Of You. Scum.

[trombone! @nszTrombone]

@ruri_polyverse @Awk20000 @Asmongold @Twitch @YouTube @Dexerto do people not realize how reductive "get another job 4Head" is when talking about life passions

I think it is perhaps more sensible to be considerate to the jobs of those artists first since you know They Are Actual Human People And Not Software

[trombone! @nszTrombone]

@weeklyadri_ @derguti_endrit @Play2XKO @Unconkable @ProtomCannon @mvcClockw0rk not to mention that theres further such incentive to do so as a free to play game. making microtransactions where they get dlc, à la league or valo, is a proven model that has served riot well over the years

A final update!

All participants in these compendiums have been paid out. With that, we have helped 14 players attend Kagaribi#13!

Thank you all so much for your support. Every like, repost, and donation helped make this possible. 🫡

Please look out for your mental health (and others') and don't make smash or any game your entire life. Be dedicated? Please do! But please don't center your self value around smash in any capacity. Its very unhealthy and you'll prolly be better at Smash if you don't anyway. It's better for everyone including you if you take a healthy approach to the game and the community

Rest in peace Hax, and thank you for being an important part of the community. You will be missed.

I'm not trying to point fingers at anyone. If you took it that way, sorry but that's not this

[trombone! @nszTrombone]

@anklebutwhining ive been having to restrain myself all day from biting on fighting back any further bc that would be letting them win.

[trombone! @nszTrombone]

@anklebutwhining i learned very quickly its simply not worth it because that energy is better spent doing many more important things in the world; namely, actually mourning the guy instead of wanting performative " justice " for someone who is now dead.
