Who is this kid...nah Im joking, nice sig.

he wont MM but he wil steal........
1st off, that was along time ago, and I already went to jail for that...but if you keep on saying it YOU WILL DISAPEAR. Im not joking.

I don't play Fox. And what's your religion?
Jehovah's Witness, and I saw a video of you playing Rayzorium with your fox...

Well that means you can't enter tournaments because that is gambling as well...
Correct. I need somebody to sponsor me. ^_^' ... nah Im joking, thats why Im leaving the game now.

Entering a tournament by paying is not gambling. He's using his skills to try to the tournament, in a way its a chance he can lose, but it's not gambling, because if it was, it would be against the law to hold the tournaments. It would be considered illegal gambling and we know what happens to people who do this, so, no, it's not gambling at all, it's competetion. Oh and wikipedia meanings are often posted by normal people, not law makers.

Explain how money matching is gambling. Your basically using your skills to get money.

Money Matches are no different than tourneys. You put money on the line saying that your skill is good enough to win it back and more.

Im not 100% sure of anything...all I know is gambling is putting in money hoping to get more in return...while one could argue "Im using my skills", no one is perfect, things happen its a gamble. People suicide and such... tournements are border-line gambling in the eyes of my religion atleast, the only reason there not illegal is because the house or location makes no-profit...otherwise it would be illegal along like casino's. Money matches are on the other hand 100% gambling, you and another person are betting.... I mean seriously... MM = cant be argued at all, its pure gambling.
It only wouldn't be gambling if it was a "for sure" or "100% always win...and like I said no one is perfect, even Ken loses.

If you disagree with what Im saying well thats you, we all have different religions and moral codes... Im just trying to explain mine... and let everyone know, Jeremy Feifer (me) has never and will never money match... I will only enter tournements if somone should pay for me... since that dosnt happen alot it goes back to another reason on why I'm leaving this game even though I love it so much.

Wow, better change off of "Smash Director" to "Smash Debate". ^_^'

Your implication is that gambling is morally wrong - on what grounds can you claim that? Where is the justification for that in an authoritative text?

Gambling is wrong because Im a christian and in the bible its shows we shouldn't gamble.

Now if your askin like why ordinary people who dont believe in the bible or whatever shouldn't gamble....I never said you shouldn't Im just saying once again why I dont.

Gambling Leads to greed, and promotes the love of $.

Scriptures:

Isaiah 65:11 - "But you men are those leaving Jehovah(= god's name), those forgetting my holy mountain, those setting in order a table for the god of Good Luck and those filling up mixed wine for the god of Destiny."

1Timothy 6:10 - "For the love of money is a root of all sorts of injuriousthings, and by reaching out for this love some have been lead astray from the faith and have stabbed themselves all over with many pains."

1Corinthians 6:9-10 - "What! Do you not know that unrighteous persons will not inherit God's kingdom? Do not be misled. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men kept for unnatural purposes, nor men who lie with men, nor thieves, nor greedy persons, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inhherit God's kingdom."

first of all it's not gambling if it involves skill....making a bet isnt always gambling. it's gambling if it involves no skill...if you suicide, that shows lack of skill...really the only thing besides skill that can affect the outcome is the level (which is why there are banned levels: all the nuetral ones are fair, and why there are counter picks).

second of all, I'm a Christian. I don't remember anything like that in the Bible. perhaps I'm wrong.

If you believe gambling is wrong, then don't do it. But I don't think smash counts...think of it as: everyone who enters pays the entry fee. the winners get a prize.

For people such as myself who don't win tournaments, I think of the entry fee as the cost of a fun day; the same way you'd pay to see a movie. As I have no intention of winning money, and I only go to tournaments to have fun, it isn't gambling.

1)Well technically you could be the king of poker.... but its still gambling because "chance" is involved. You saying skill is only erelavent if the person is perfect... no-one is perfect... not to mention half of the people who money matched me have never played me = prediction of future = chance...

2)Look in your bible at the scriptures I left...or do some research on yourself.

3)...whats the argument....its from YOU (not you yourself forkgirl but rather everyone as a group) All I said was I dont gamble you guys are actin like im tellin you all not to gamble... you guys jsut want to argue for the sake of argueing...

So yeh...lets just end it here..I dont gamble cause I Feel it wrong, you can do whatever you want to... I honestly dont care.

I respect that, and you, I relize not entering tournements = playing less... but yet in still ill only play friendlies unless somone else pay for me having no intention of me paying them back.... for example, my partner in teams is always sideeffect, but if he dosn't want to play alone in teams he will pay for me just because I do things for him like buying food etc... its just genuine kindness... not slick-slide gambling...

BUT Like I said enough, you people can do whatever you want and so can I, dont try to cahnce my mind on how I feel cause Im not doing it to you so...yes this is done...

Switch the subject or somthing please...

jacking off, watching porn, having sex before your married, getting a divorce for unnatural reasons etcetcetcetc are all concidered abominations, everyone contradicts thier religion.

pretty much everyone who says they are religious is a hypocrite towards religion

then you have to look at in my point of view. Nothing can magically be made, you also have to relize people are the first to publish the bible and many different versions of it... then you relize forever people have been killing over religion which is bull****, children starving, single parents, people dieing in wars, from hunger, aids etcetc
it just doesnt make sense to me why someone would look up to a God that might not even exist, and why believe in a bible that man created.. while human beings have always been corrupt... blah blah blah i quit peace =)

Yes everyone who is under any religion is a hypocrit...BUT SO WHAT!, were not perfect, everyone on the planet is a hypocrit... so explain that,? everyone who plays smash is a hypocrit in one way or another.

Examples:
1)You give advice that you need.
2)You hate people who get mad when they lose but you do too...
3)You hate on top tier but you play top tier...

Lol, how did this turn into a religious discussion? That's what the Debate Hall is for. Now let's all get along. :)
They want to argue... but I wont say anything anymore...


Long story short, screw you guys Im goin home

If your a hypocrite towards religion then your not religious

pretty much everyone is taught two things while they are alive.

one is that God loves you and you're going to burn in hell. The other is that sex is the most awful, filthy thing on earth and you should save it for someone you love.

LOL pimpjizz

but anyways God is fake, religion is pointless. Live your life how you want to, be happy, and make something of yourself.

God has nothing to do with you waking up and getting a 100 on a college exam or getting a job promotion or surviving in iraq

im sry lol im wathing the religion channel and these peeps are pissing me off.

I'm actually agreeing with TGM for once :)

I take one nap and all this happens...

This topic is supposed to be about HOST 2 so let's keep it that way, I'm tired of closing things.

Uglywombat, you have a good Falco, I've never played your Fox but it seems good....but you do NOT play Marth. Not without some Bluezaft Training ("forward smash more").

But hey, I'll MM you at the SA tournament Dec. 2. I won't be Marth if that helps.

I'd rather you play your best bluezaft.

last time we played you were so right, I don't play Marth, and I don't want to sound mean, but this is true, and you can probably relate to it, and my English teacher would kill me for this many commas.

forkgirls peach is also not good. My marth is used to playing other people that are trickier or faster, and I expected alot out of her peach, and was dissapointed. Anyways, I moved to wierd like and she ownz with peach.

The real thing, it wasnt peach, peach is a *****, she played the better, DAISY!!! lol

Ok, also chris, i wont start anothe rmatch with anybody I already owe money.

Also, rob, be quiet, you're the one failing gov., i mean, wtf!!! that class is so easy

:D :D aint it great?!?! nah, I know what you mean about it sucking...I mean i had always beaten you before and then you won that MM and so i guess you were considered better. During the MM, I was really nervous too, but no johns. and i guess the situation has switched now, so i know how that must be annoying to you.

I'm sure you think you're better than me. Nothing wrong with that, I think I'm better than you too...

I guess my advice is to beat me


EDIT: and my sucky peach beat smiles in a peach ditto!!!! he was underestimating me, though. and then he tried his best and slaughtered me :( But anyways, if my peach was THAT bad, you should have beaten it, no johns

so what...Jordan said that it was the easiest pool ever and that any noob could have gotten out... i was the closest in my pool to beating caveman (would have won a match had it not been for the ken cloud, grrrrr. he was obviously sandbagging, but he was with everyone else too, and i got the farthest. also, I was the only one (besides caveman) in our pool to win a match against the guy who got 2nd in our pool. we had different people in our pools, you cant assume it was even. Plus my pool had one more person than all the others (thanks wes :p jk) blah blah blah argue argue...lets just mm and get it over with.
