US Regional Qualifier - Seattle, WA - May 8th, 2010 WON BY ZEROWING

[Zog]

Oh, and your great, great, great grand daughter? She's pretty fine.

Oh sweet... hahaha.

And yeah the maximum date is 2099. It's what the DS gets limited to, unless the DSi can go higher but yeah I don't have one. Yet. The RNG reporter's just giving you its inputs to the formula; often they're not even attainable in the actual game.

Just got back? Where do you live? xD

I wish I could have talked with you, but I ended up leaving right after I lost. You gonna go next year? We can set up a proper meet-up or something. :D

Nah, I stayed the rest of the night in Seattle, then I got lost xP

Yeah, I looked for you after my match, but I couldn't find you anyweres. I wanted to chat too...aw....wicked though, I'm so going next year! Count me in~

I liked seeing the Ducks, but the Rockets were definitly the best. I am so proud to be a Smogonite~<)

Just realized only 1 of the four finalists was actually from the northwest.
Sigh

 

[Timess]

Yeah, that sucks, too bad we couldn't take our trophy home. Well, next year, right.

 

[Havak]

I was extremely impressed by the quality of this article in the Seattle Times. Very well-written, and they spelled everything right.

Congrats, Zerowing, btw.

"When my kid talks to me about this, I have no idea what he's saying," she said. "But he doesn't play any sports, and this is my one chance to root him on. This is a whole little tribe of kids that are his peeps."

this made me tear up a bit, it was so sad from beginning middle and especially end.

 

[Bug Maniac Marc]

The other 5th placers were my brother BEACH, who like me isn't active, and lost to felix,
and Brandon, who told me he didn't have a smogon account, who lost to me.

 

[Arkeis]

WHAT THE FUCK! MARC PARKER IS 17?????!!

My thoughts exactly.

You look like a college senior! Not that there's anything wrong with that. You can drink and not get carded.

It's sad, yeah. It didn't stop me from laughing a little bit. I just imagined Hank Hill saying it.
