Sorry, Eddy. I had no idea that you were trying to talk to me. Lots of noise and distractions I guess. Ryder cup sounds like a lot of fun.

Quick recap:

 

I had a great time once again. Made the final 64 which is all I really cared about and lost to a pretty good player who I never heard of.  I chose a risky matchup (Bears vs Eagles) hoping he'd grab the Eagles. I was wrong and I paid the price for it.

 

VikingMoe, I did indeed give you a head nod and at times I actually tried to have a conversation with you guys, I'm just not sure you heard me.  EIther way I have no beef with you guys, and am hoping you can be part of team MN for the Ryder Cup in November, as we have already recruited a seasoned vet whom will be named later and we need the talent.

 

Orenga's bunch was fucking LOUD.  Annoyingly loud, especially since I was seated next to them with a killer hangover during my playoff game, head just a pounding.  Did it help the atmosphere? Maybe, but I could have done without it.  "Give him the D Tony" is a phrase I heard more than once.

 

Was awesome meeting guys like Bruddog and Gats, and of course seeing all the usuals again.  Glad to see a nice MN turnout with guys like 8bit and Segathon making the trip.

 

I'd like to thank Dave for the killer live stream, maybe we can have multiple feeds in the future?  I was able to watch a few games in the finals from my phone when we got a bite to eat, and they were top notch.

 

Lastly, I have a conspiracy theory .... I'm thinking Grimlock, you know the guy who looked like Aaron Hernandez's younger brother, was really KidPro?  A smart ass hispanic guy who lives near the coast who likes wrestling and plays Tecmo?  Had a eerily similar playing style as well, even though he said he hadn't played in 15 years.  Had to have been him, either way he was a blast hanging around with.

 

Thanks again Madison crew and staff, another great year.  Congrats to Regulator and Chet for another great tourney.

This is the best Madison group I've seen, should be a great tourney.  I'd pay top dollar for a Vikingsmoe vs Sconnie matchup again!

I don't really view this as a donation (I gave $20), I view this as a fee to see a legend of Tecmo. Would do the same to see MonkeyButler, Bruddog, TSBGOD (yes the god), Larry Legend and quite possibly Fairfield. People who have added to Tecmo lore more or less. This could be a new business model.

Donation sent, looking forward to meeting you Joe. Long live Tecmo!

the only reason why that sideshow is allowed is cause your play is absolute garbage

Great tourney Ben, it was funner than last year and I hope it keeps continuing.

 

Eric, Bill was beating you with the worst team on the rom, and because of your actions (and not being aware of your surroundings) you reset the game.  If it wasn't intentional, it was highly negligible.  I honestly wouldn't even ask someone to replay it, let alone expect them to.  I think that is asking for way too much given the situation.

I've froze the game before after losing my temper, and I've paid my bets without replaying as Sconnie can attest to.  You just can't lose it and expect someone to replay it to the point where you left off because you lost your temper, especially when 200 bucks is on the line.

 

I don't blame the crowd for wanting to see a game, we were there all day.  But heck man, don't blame the organizer and the opponent cause you lost it, and you sure shouldn't expect them to bend the rules cause you apparently would.  If it were my tourney I would have done the same thing.

BIll can probably defend himself here, but as for running away with the money and not giving another replay, it's Tecmo, the best players fall victim to garbage.  This isn't ping pong or playing HORSE in the backyard where you're in total control of your destiny, I barely knocked a player out after he blocked my field goal, recovered a fumble, and returned 2 punt returns from fumbles for TDs in one game.  I'd take the money too.

Have you seen the movie 8mm?  Quite possible MACHINE lives there
