EDIT I put at the start of the post: lol @ Dr.D being soo .... mysterious haha
--------------------
btw someone add me - i am at 56* in the platinum battle tower! :P
oh shi...wait you didn´t post your team
mr. Pheano, Bozo was right, you have to get to at least 170 to be put on the hall list, sorry dude..I know I know, where did the damned note about that go? I took it down when the list got full with 170+ stuff, then we started asking about proof (caedus was „worst enemy“ at that time) and now #30 is not occupied
not mentioning my name makes it easier for you to what? ignore the friendship we had before whoever started it started it?
to not get directly involved into arguing about your problems with me. I should be pleased that my „badness“ gets so much of your attention (by that I mean you search for my comments from long time ago and stuff like it was a job you´re paid for), I don´t know the reason why. I honestly thought you´d say fuck him I don´t care what he does and not try to provoke me into a debate with you, but you love that ("debating")
My friends tell me how their streak goes, even when they´re my rivals. I´ve told Fatum on ICQ everytime he asked, which was pretty much one of the first questions we asked one another. Not only that, if one was playing at the time, he often posts a live-log for the other to see what he faces, what he does, about „hax“ and calling it, both people enjoyed it that way (yeah who´s so crazy to enjoy a streak!). That´s fun.
So the thing with you is just a misunderstanding. I don´t (didn´t) understand why you have a problem with telling me (OK you don´t post here about where you are, except for milestones, neither did I – you accuse me of posting at every possible occasion though, when I posted „interesting numbers“ and close calls after 1K, which makes the streak a lot more believable than hi 1363 out of nowhere) and you don´t understand that I´m honestly just curious. By asking you over and over and over and over again (lol, I should have let it go) while you only said „no“ you got annoyed, a lot (it actually amused me how you always said the same thing :)
and you hint that i'm a coward lol.
Well, I didn´t post what I wrote about the unfinished streaks topic so you´ll probably never know what I really meant. Also maybe I meant convenient or something else. How you interpret the few things I did mention in english (not my first language), is your prerogative and I can´t do shit about that.
also please don't intimate that i'm the one with nothing better to do when you expressed shame in yourself for spending your entire two-week vacation playing pokemon.
yeah playing pokémon is generally a waste of time, but it´s still better than wasting time to constantly, in 99% (overexaggerating here) of your posts, attack me in whatever way, provoking me...again, I admire your determination to prove your points, whatever they are, and if you´re still able to pay so much attention to a random guy with all those other responsibilities you have, hmm, then you´re a lucky man
now I could´ve misunderstood what you wrote, but I didn´t mean getting to 2364 was a waste of time on your side, and I´m sure you spent a lot of your own vacation (free time) getting there (it wouldn´t have been so relatively „quick“ otherwise), which is what frontier fanatics do (we can´t help it)
are you still amused by my drive and determination now that i stopped talking about you and got the record?
I expected you to stop after 2364 (but you didn´t), if only becuase I presumed you were overreacting partly (among other things) due to me breaking 500, 1000, 1500 and 2000 before you,
- who was (is) widely considered to be the best in the frontier, nothing wrong with that – the problem here was that the numbers at that time didn´t help your cause
- who stated and truly believed you were the best and had the best team, CLS, nothing wrong with that either, but you obviously (it´s pretty safe to assume this) were struggling to get anywhere near 796 (or 500), not to mention I desperately wanted to protect that record and beat it myself)
- you stated you didn´t give a damn about other people´s streaks, which was obviously a lie to hold your facade – there simply isn´t one person in this topic who wouldn´t be interested in other people´s records...hell it´s a given that if TRE didn´t get 330 you wouldn´t want to get past him and put that much more effort into it,
or do you seriously claim you, with your natural habit of sitting on streaks (just read the first post who has the most * records before I abolish the asterisks once and for all), would have gotten anywhere near 2000 by yourself if I, or anyone else, would be currently struggling with something like 500?
that behaviour of wanting to surpass others is competitiveness, that´s what made us come to smogon in the first place, how come you dare to always try to make it seem like you´re the god who doesn´t give a crap about others? you´re just human as any other male person in this topic, yeah you´re very skilled at what you do, so what?
then you posted 2364 and I promptly knew I was right in figuring you out, thus it was a lot easier to accept you got a better streak
as i said months ago, since you chose to be offended at my suggestions that you should have been a little more humble and my annoyance with you saying my "lol 499" wasn't that bad, the only thing i could do was prove that i deserved to be #. by now you probably realize you didn't help your case by motivating me more than anything else could have.
I´m pretty bright (most of the time) and I knew like 2 minutes after I made that comment „wasn´t that bad“ that you´d hate me forever and lol my regice comment felt even „funnier“... I guess it was your weak point and I was taunting you, even if it was meant a friendly taunt, you were not over it (I was judging you by my own self, where I just tend to forget the losses pretty quick, I generally forget stuff pretty quick and am able to joke about it) and that basically meant my doom...I knew that I could´ve said whatever I wanted and it wouldn´t help
lesson learned, friendly taunts about the lost streaks of the one, whose name I recently tend to forget, backfires badly
yes I got defensive about my streak, because you never came close to accepting it, just that I was lucky because your CLS wasn´t so lucky...but that´s understanadble and a human reaction...the problem is your gigantic ego (which is a good thing, most of the timee), makes you think you´re not human though
a similar thing happened to me with garo, it was
very weak calling him the luckiest man on earth, because I couldn´t understand how it was possible at that time...I also said I was wrong last time you brought this up, I´m just a human who makes mistakes...and as I said, using the same moveset to prove its awesomeness is more than a simple „sorry“ ... yeah your interpretation is he´s a loser who accused, then failed, so he was forced to copy the on ehe accused...whatever
I was offended at your suggestion because of a misunderstanding, again. The 1K post got over as IMABEST crap, like I was rubbing it under your noses, really bad. It wasn´t meant to, but I can´t change the feelings of you people. It was meant mainly as proof of an amazing streak in the first place (after all, it happened right after the dubious 823), then celebration...mwahahaha was towards the tower and to express YESSSSSSSSSS I DID IT...but whatever I say won´t change the subjective impression people got and I seriously didn´t think about how people would react to it when I wrote it...I won´t waste my time trying to make people understand that, it´s futile
„My cause“ is to try to get the highest streak possible in the first place, thus I didn´t sit at 1K or 2K or whatever,
while trying to be on top of the list. Now in the last sentence you actually admitted that my streak made you positively motivated into beating it, you´re welcome ;)
Now while I may be disappointed that I don´t own the highest streak anymore, I have no problem accepting that. Also it kind of made me start playing again, which I thought would have been harder than it is. Yeah I could say „gonna break yoo, even if it kills me“ but it´s not really like that and I don´t plan to play so intensively. What happens, happens. Also good luck in breaking 3K and later stuff.
noticing that i put my record up there too? after two more weeks of waiting for you to come back? and after i'd waited two weeks for you to add my 1001 record when i could have edited it in immediately? why would i get offended by whatever you're hinting at? and who actually blames me but you? as i mentioned i wanted to add a few more but i've been dealing with the suspect test process and the paragraph submissions and the voting privileges and maintaining usergroups in addition to all the other stuff i have to do as an admin. maintaining this thread is not my "job". it must be nice to be able to take a month-long break from the only smogon responsibility you have, huh
My response was meant like this. It was always like that, you pretty much always update just your butt. No problem with that, as it was sometimes my own fault. But you tried to hide the fact that you only care about your own streak (who doesn´t?) by adding Bozo as well. Now why is your record and Bozo´s record more important than for example TRE´s amazing stuff? Just because you didn´t have the time to add everyone?
Yes it is my responsibility, but let me tell you this, I´ve never updated just me. If you selectively add just 1 or 2 people, it makes it a lot harder to make a full update later. Also there´s no way to explain why someone was added and someone was clearly omitted.
it doesn't really matter because you're talking about a difference of a few days unless you really think i lost in 2008 or whatever. i would edit it myself if i cared
Hell, why can´t you just react to stuff normally, at least once. I have no problem changing stuff if you give me an accurate date. I don´t understand what you mean by me thinking about you losing in 2008. I´m not thinking (about dates), I´m adding info that I have to somehow find. Come on, you obviously care, otherwise you would not have commented the first time ._.
why wouldn't i deserve to take a break after breaking your record? especially when you are evidently allowed to take month-long breaks from this thread when you have a responsibility to maintain it? peterko is the only one who ever deserves a break, then? that's rich...or maybe since it was so easy for me to got to 2364 i don't need a break? is that it?
No, not again...this is killing me (not really). You misunderstood my comment really badly. I meant that sitting on streaks is the worst thing, while I understand and accept a WELL DESERVED BREAK after such a long streak, I said well deserved, didn´t I? But I also said I accept a well deserved break to a certain point. Now I may have misuderstood, but I got the impression you didn´t want to see the tower for a loong loong time when you posted 2364. My bad (?)
also "let's just say im not still at 2364". i don't post my status until i hit milestones, i've already mentioned that in this thread
here´s our all time favourite mysterious message „let´s just say“. I hope you don´t get into a state of shock after reading the following message (I bet you´ll think I lie like you always presume):
Good for you! Good luck in getting as far as you can man!
i've given my reasons for my alleged "grudge" many times. you said my "lol 499" was "not that bad" in spite of how crushed i said i was in the post, and you stuck to that when i tried to explain just how bad it was in case you misunderstood. you insulted garo by chalking his record streak up to luck, and never so much as apologized for it, even after using the exact same pokemon to attain your success. you posted a completely over the top "MWAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!" update that you got very defensive about when i said i and others felt it was over the top before scaling it down. you got incredibly defensive when i asked you to explain why you used recover over flash for everyone else's benefit, instead offering a "retort" to something that wasnt even a shot at you that i should post my own current status. you told me straight up after that my CLS team "wasn't good enough to deal with hax". you constantly badgered me both here and on AIM about what my streak was even after i told you to stop asking.
Hmm if that´s all that´s needed for this to end is, I´ll try to adress stuff
- „not that bad“ was a mistimed intended-to-be-a-friendly-taunt that you spouted fire for, for a long time now, you still haven´t gotten over the loss or something? I knew it was a mistake and admitting that should be more than enough, I won´t apologize for trying a friendly joke, I´m admitting it was wrong...on the other hand, you can´t make me understand how „bad“ something for you is (or try to objectify it in every possible way), because I´m not the one who played at that time, nor do I know the team that well, nor do I know how you really felt when you lost. In the end, only your own emotion matters. I lost to 4 guillotines in a row. That´s nowhere near as improbable as other people´s losses, but I still felt I was cheated on. I´m not trying to desperately make everyone and their mother understand how bad it was. Let it go.
- I already posted about the garo case above, I paid respect by further proving steel as one of the best trick team pokés. Also why do you have the urge to play the police?
- not much more to say about 1K post than I said above
- I was defensive about recover because I knew your motive, you couldn´t take how some other guy who didn´t invent the strategy although used it, but who didn´t copy your „unrivaled and undoubted“ trick moveset, got so far, even worse, before you...I don´t know, it´s just that I don´t feel the need to make everyone and their mother convinced that what I use is the most effective movesets, I play to get as fara s I can and I got relatively far with recover, so what´s the problem? Why do you always feel the need to make everyone acknowledge you as the one and only, when you got the numbers, aren´t they enough? Why did you always have to be „amused“ that people didn´t use the latias moveset you created that was supposed to be the best? I mean, just let them do what they want.
Also I dislike when you post as if you represented the „general good“, what´s „everyone´s“ interest and best for the community. Your opinion has big significance, no need to get overboard. There are generally 3 ways to handle it. The emotional, defensive way. The open conflict, time consuming and often depressing one, contraproductive in the end. Ignoring the bait. You´re probably a steel type, cause somehow they´re all not very effective.
Now I originally aimed to end this, so....umm, the 4th spot on latias I always felt was kind of an open one, recover is pretty good. I used it and got to 796 and 2363, which is not bad. I haven´t used flash. I don´t know how good it is. I don´t like to rely on accuracy, so maybe flash isn´t for me. Recover doesn´t save me from QC 1HKOs (nor does flash btw.) and does nothing to prevent to be guillotined in 4. Thus it may not be the best possible move, but it´s one of the very few usable ones and a reliable one. I don´t feel the need to prove it´s the best option, that´s why I won´t post about recover, even if you call me out to do so. You can interpret this however you want, but this really shouldn´t be such a big deal, not to mention a reason for your grudge, which is not alleged by the way, because you state you have a problem with what I say and do and feel the need to make me do something, dunno what though
- that regice comment was a ridiculous mishit about platinum without thinking, right after that I remembered you lost to it in DP (that being your weak spot made it even worse), too late ... also I don´t remember that I said or meant exactly what you wrote, the fact that you were unlucky and I was the opposite was your statement, not mine
- about your status, I think I posted about it somewhere above...I´ll add that the rivalry made me get that far, I mean to protect my streak as I knew you were the only one capable of breaking it...you not telling me where you were was a nasty way of playing with my mind, even if it´s your way – that you simply don´t tell about your progress...excuse me, I still don´t understand it, but I admit I didn´t respect the hundreds of „no“ out of curiosity. Shoot me.
Now as I see it, it all comes down to me „making fun“ of CLS and your loss. It was never intended. If you, after all this time, still feel the need to prove that I was actually fully intentionally making fun of you, or because you build up irritation over time and feel the urge to prove me wrong at every possible occasion to show how you´re so much better than me, go on, have fun.
can that really be any worse than you intimating that i'm a coward for stopping at 2364 (i played the final two battles like six hours after i posted as i drove to work if you really must know)
good to know the second part, information is rare these days (so were my posts in the previous month haha, damn I´m passing the ball for some neat smashes here)
the first part I don´t understand what it was related to, also now I had to look up „to intimate“ twice hmm it means hint ... your interpretation about the topic I didn´t post, coming from the very little content I released...oh shit does this mean I negligibly gave him a „new“ reason? why don´t you just shut up Peterko...
"fine" isnt a paranoid answer, and neither is a "no" answer to "can you tell me where you are at?"
hahaha those responses are still cute after all this time
i find it ironic that the some of the only information i did give you about CLS in platinum, with losing to kingler at battle 127 to "lol 3-for-3", you ended up not surviving with since you repeatedly refused to take my flash advice seriously
relax dude, what I meant by surviving is „I can live my life“, meaning that if you post about CLS in plat., you post, if you don´t, you don´t
my memory is bad and I only remember kingler and powder scizor, both almost got me, nothing ironic about my loss, I did the best I could according to my exp. and lost)...also flash doesn´t save you from gliscor, nor kingler (yeah the chances of survival are better than with recover, which is zero with scor if I trick and scor doesn´t miss lol, but I won´t get into a flash discussion, enjoy your streak dude)
Hmm, now this was quite a long post...I´m at the end and already forgot half of what I wrote....so yeah, how´s your streak going? :p
Attention!!! The last question was meant as a friendly joke!!!
EDIT:
Is all of this necessary?
Why is all of this necessary?
Why do you care what some random guy on the internet says and how he behaves? Is it because you feel he insulted you?
Honestly ...
