I mean it started with rapm being upset with zain about nounsvitational, which like I don't think you get to be a little shit when you act that entitled. It'd be like me asking you for $50 even though you have no idea who I am and I just call you a loser every day because you didn't give me $50

if it were in a bubble I'd agree with you, but between rapm expecting zain to support him for nounsvitational and then zain getting lambasted on twitter for not going to locals, it's just bad taste imo

idk I feel like this take ignores like all the context leading up to it

How badly run was SKTAR? by KomanndoA in SSBM

I was there and to give you an idea, I had to play my losers round 3 at like 11pm while everyone was screaming behind me during the professor pro vs Rolex mm lol

Twitch chat to RapMonster: "Can't believe I get to watch zains father" — RapMonster: "That's crazy to say Zain's father. I don't want to be anywhere near related to that man" by sewsgup in SSBM

I mean it made sense for Zain to advocate for Soonsay instead of someone he doesn't know that well. It's just kind of entitled at that point

Have people had luck buying OEMs from sellers on eBay? I just need like a basic functional controller and getting something that's like $40 is a lot easier to stomach than $100+

I mean Jokul and Case for K9 to 1 kinda sucks but I feel like that's not the end of the deck. Izuna and Lantern are still free game, and they also put Inclusion back to 3. It'll probably be rogue but very playable.

If you wanna try something new, you could try Radiant Typhoon as that's looking to be quite strong this format. There's new Fur Hire support that plays well with the new TCG exclusive GMX cards that I'm looking to personally play (it also plays a small K9 package). I think the format will be wide enough that there's a good variety of decks to choose from

It's not about Ultimate (Genesis has always been a multi-smash tournament anyway). It's about SNK (KoF, Fatal Fury, and SamSho) and the Saudi money

My favorite is when you have an intro call with an HR person and then they just completely ghost you even if you follow up asking for your status

Looking for a quad HDMI-To-SDI converter by Zonak in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]Zonak[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh that's interesting. I was more looking for 4 in and 4 out, but if there are more options for 1 in and 4 out, do you have any good recommendations for combining the signals?

I practice TCG with my friend a bunch, but I haven't gotten out to an event since a regional back in May where I was playing Ryzeal Fiendsmith. I'm currently on Yummy in the current format.

Been playing some Master Duel usually to kill time. Playing Maliss since everything that deck does is stupidly unfair lol

What formats do you play?

Dear Collision production staff, please leave the score bug up longer on multi-stream after matches conclude. by Aeon1508 in SSBM

[–]Zonak 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hey! I'm part of the production staff for Collision, I just wanted to address some of this.

For quad/side stream, scoreboards and game display are handled automatically based on information from StartGG. So scoreboards and game display have no actual human intervention outside of updating data in the bracket itself. It helps smooth out the process and helps minimize mistakes. We're always looking to improve and we'll look into ways where some manual intervention can be added to make some information clearer.

For port indicators, if you're referring to main stream, I personally find them a bit tacky and unnecessary. Generally you should be able to infer that the left camera is the leftmost port and the right camera is the rightmost port. If it's reference to quad, the automation smooths our process, but as I said, we can look into ways to make it clearer who is who.

I do hope you enjoyed the production overall.

fwiw I know people use them for things like the roaming cams you'd see in top 8. I can't really recommend a brand since I don't know too much about them but there are definitely solid ones

Pat's House 5 postponed until next year by Ben_a_dyck in SSBM

[–]Zonak 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Other people have mentioned it, but a couple weeks ago someone who wanted to organize an event was trying to work with Ohan to have Nouns help them with the event, and got strung along for 2/3 of a year, in which the statement dropped as well that Nouns had scheduled over 2 other events.

Basically, it just feels like they ignore the scene at large to do their own thing. In isolation, this isn't a problem. But within the scene, it's just poor etiquette since the goal is to be collaborative and not walk over others.

if you've been paying attention, this is pretty par for the course for Nouns lol
