i got some shit to say,
Not going into detail, but from the very first moment Alan opened his mouth to the last time we spoke, nothing but snake like sounds could be heard, like that shit in harry potter.

In one call, it was confirmed that he was to be the licensee broker of the whole scene. This has the potential to be really, really bad for everyone. That means eventually, if he wanted to, you would HAVE to be part of Panda Cup to get a license. One person having the keys

Now go register for G9, you got a week before deadline hits, and prices go up.

G9 is coming up, and without BTS we wouldn't be able to operate. Being on the Panda Cup meant giving that up, and up ending our years long relationships with established members of the community for one persons greed and lust for being the MAN in charge.
FUCK THAT.

One thing for sure that was constantly reiterated in our calls, was that SWT would be canceled, that SWT was blacklisted, that GIMR was blacklisted, and it was only a matter of time before they were shut down, cause "trust me I know." Trust me was a term he used a lot

Managed to get caught up on all the post G7 bullshit as I’m dying in bed.
I really wish people would understand what actually goes into events this large.
Makes me question why I even work this hard on something that is so detrimental to my health every fucking year.

Make no mistake, he had no plans on uniting the scene on a larger scale. He had NO plans on propping Melee up, or how to onboard new players. His plan that he told us, was to push ULT way more to the masses, and gain the casual audience. Go mainstream.

Ive had the misfortune of dealing with a lot of manipulative people in my life, so when I hear him talk, I was immediately put on guard. The gaslighting, the doubt he would cast on things I would say, the way he would play victim saying he's not doing this for himself etc etc

I can go on and on, but generally, most of the shit hes saying in that 31 page garbage tweet is a lie. Its riddled with manipulative ways of speaking, and its just more of what I expect of a guy who thinks he's the fucking "savior of smash"

There was no trust. He at one point called himself the "savior of smash" on a call, when he went on a rant about how great of a position he's in to do good for the community, and how all his hard work is paying off to bring everyone together.

One last thing I want to chime in on is about Ken. Ken is by far one of the most personally influential people I've ever met in my life. The guidance hes given us, the support, the professionalism that hes shown us has been something I will be forever thankful for.

is definitely NOT okay. No matter who the fuck it is. His "vision" didnt stop there. He also wanted to sanitize every event, take the personality of each event and impose his own vision that he said was superior to what everyone else is trying to do at the moment.

You want to talk about someone actually giving a fuck about the scene? We wouldn't be where we are without him. Genesis as a whole, would have probably gone under years ago, if it wasn't for him telling us where were fucking up, and how to do better.

In the end tho, we dont do this shit for money, we do this shit cause we fucking love the games, and we love the people that are involved. Alans vision was to impose his own fucked up sanitized version and shove it down everyone's throats while dangling a license over your head.

There was too much risk on our end to ever be okay with any of his proposals. We had to take on all the financial burdens, the risk, and give up a lot of what we've worked hard to do over the last 13 years, just so this fuck could ride in on his donkey and claim it for himself.

By introducing an analyst desk, or stats (which cost money to use, even if you were on the Panda Cup), give up your broadcast, and any kind of creative vision you might have had, be stamped with a panda logo and taken over. This was something I personally was not okay with.

Hes been an integral part of this scene, and I can confidently say that without BTS and his work there, we would be much much worse off. This PJ deal quite literally allowed us to keep the lights on for G8

He went to bat for the whole community every chance he got, with no expectations of being paid back in anyway cause he truly loves the scene. Alan says this, but hes never been involved in the scene like claims to have been. He didnt even understand how tournaments operated

also I’m not worried at all about the minor backlash that we were already expecting to happen. We had more people register for GX in 8 hours than we did the whole first week of G9s reg launch. GX is going to be the biggest event we’ve done by far. We’re just getting mf started

Thinking of making a blog to outline what it actually costs to run these events, and what goes into negotiating prices and securing space while trying to also iterate and not stay stagnant with every event we do.

smash in general would not be where it is today without mango. genesis wouldnt be what it is without mango, we wouldnt have even DONE a 2nd or 3rd, or 7th one without mango. the man has truly impacted so many lives in this world, and im forever grateful to have crossed paths

We all gotta do better. Myself included. Every TO, every player, every spectator. No more half assed measures, no more overlooking “weird” tendencies, no more homie code, or bro code bullshit, no more giving people the benefit of the doubt. We HAVE to do better.

Genesickness is clearing up a bit, and I’m not in my feels as much. I need to learn how to not take every single criticism to heart, and look at the bigger picture. I momentarily lost sight of why we do this and your support and love really means everything to me.

growing up as a kid in the internet age sounds so fucking rough. You’re constantly pushed to develop faster than usual, little to no usable advice from previous gens, and expected to have the mental fortitude to navigate the constant onslaught of bullshit from the internet.

I don’t even get the backlash, it’s LITERALLY cheaper if you separate the costs out. You take out $35 from the venue that we charge for Top 8 seats venue fee is back to $90, and we even took $10 off the top 8 seating price and included it for everyone so it’s easier

we opt to do it between matches instead. its really loud, and i think it takes away from the match when both players also are forced to listen to it. if we had sound proof tanks that would be diff. I also think it takes away from the vibe a little, and "subdues" the crowd a bit
