    Right now I'm just going through SF6's World Tour mode and arcade mode at a comfortable pace. I'm full-time BCBA until the weekends and then I'm journeying to locals either as a TO or to get sets in my favorite games that my locals don't play (SFxT etc). All SF6 trials done!

    The Honda player is who I was talking about earlier, where I was gassing in him up in front of his girlfriend and then he won our monthly.

    First SF6 monthly was a complete success. I think it was between 25-30 entrants and for the first time ever we finished the tournament without going over the allotted time the venue allowed for us. Typically we start doing brackets at 2 PM and need to break everything down by 7 PM. This time we finished at 6 PM. At Combo Breaker I ran a 31-person TTT2 tournament all by myself and cleared off to Top 8 in 2 hours flat, so that gave me enough time to stream all of Top 8. After I finish the SFxT exhibition at EVO I'm going to dive wholly into bracket running as I really did miss the chaos of running stuff offline. Conversely, people who were in the group that tried to say I was toxic about "not being able to handle change" had all sorts of complaints about their brackets running late for reasons within their control, so I'll just let the results speak for themselves. I know being timely is important to both the venue and the players, especially those who have other events planned after the listed end time. 
     
    On that note, the guy who won our monthly is someone who used to play SFxT with me locally. Back then he was still in high school but now he's all grown up. His girlfriend (I'm assuming that's who she is) was really excited to see him play, and I gassed him up like crazy to her talking about how I once commentated his run in the Capcom Cup online qualifiers for SFxT back in 2013. He was really excited to hear me say that, and that the Top 4 for this tournament would go up on Arturo's channel, and he told her that I'm a "world famous SF player" so I wasn't throwing all that praise around lightly. I'm proud of him for holding it down and getting this all-important win as RVA has a long history of producing strong FG players inlcuding MK Tom Brady, Jinmaster, Vicki Viper, Derezz...and I guess at this point, I'm there too.
     
    At Combo Breaker someone came up to me and asked to take my picture with him. After I got the bracket to a point where I could take a minute to do so, he mentioned he was a huge fan of the XWIRES efforts for SFxT. Others offered similar praise, even mentioning that I was the reason they picked up TMNTxJL, and there's excitement about me running SFxT and TTT2 offsite on EVO Sunday. While I've mostly braced myself for FGC drama since I joined Freshcut last year in protest of Vortex Gallery was treating people last year, it was very refreshing to see the other side of my efforts get recognized. That's going to keep me focused for what I've got in store for Vegas this summer.

    With JP's history of entering different countries and organizations and then dipping, is there a possibility that JP originally gained Psycho Power as one of the red wizard-esque elite Shadaloo officers? They did always wear masks...
     
    EDIT: All caught up with the thread, I don't think him being the "financial officer" would exclude him of getting a rank like everyone else, and IIRC only the red officers were allowed to practice and wield Psycho Power.

    Honestly it sounds like JP experimented with upgrading himself with Psycho Power. It doesn't sound like he was a normal officer or in high command and it doesn't sound like he was an experiment like Decapre and Ed. JP makes it sounds like he augmented himself like how Seth did when he installed the Tandem engine into himself like his original biography stated back in 4.

Typically we start doing brackets at 2 PM and need to break everything down by 7 PM. This time we finished at 6 PM. At Combo Breaker I ran a 31-person TTT2 tournament all by myself and cleared off to Top 8 in 2 hours flat, so that gave me enough time to stream all of Top 8. After I finish the SFxT exhibition at EVO I'm going to dive wholly into bracket running as I really did miss the chaos of running stuff offline. Conversely, people who were in the group that tried to say I was toxic about "not being able to handle change" had all sorts of complaints about their brackets running late for reasons within their control, so I'll just let the results speak for themselves. I know being timely is important to both the venue and the players, especially those who have other events planned after the listed end time. 
     
    On that note, the guy who won our monthly is someone who used to play SFxT with me locally. Back then he was still in high school but now he's all grown up. His girlfriend (I'm assuming that's who she is) was really excited to see him play, and I gassed him up like crazy to her talking about how I once commentated his run in the Capcom Cup online qualifiers for SFxT back in 2013. He was really excited to hear me say that, and that the Top 4 for this tournament would go up on Arturo's channel, and he told her that I'm a "world famous SF player" so I wasn't throwing all that praise around lightly. I'm proud of him for holding it down and getting this all-important win as RVA has a long history of producing strong FG players inlcuding MK Tom Brady, Jinmaster, Vicki Viper, Derezz...and I guess at this point, I'm there too.
     
    At Combo Breaker someone came up to me and asked to take my picture with him. After I got the bracket to a point where I could take a minute to do so, he mentioned he was a huge fan of the XWIRES efforts for SFxT. Others offered similar praise, even mentioning that I was the reason they picked up TMNTxJL, and there's excitement about me running SFxT and TTT2 offsite on EVO Sunday. While I've mostly braced myself for FGC drama since I joined Freshcut last year in protest of Vortex Gallery was treating people last year, it was very refreshing to see the other side of my efforts get recognized. That's going to keep me focused for what I've got in store for Vegas this summer.

    Psychoblue got a reaction from Shakunetsu in The SF6 Thread: Mena Won Evo Japan!   
    I'm right now going through everyone's trials and story mode before I do the deep dive. My first local monthly is tomorrow and I'll be on stream duty. If anyone here wants to tune in, it starts at 1 PM EST at psychoblue9 on twitch
     
    In the interim I'd appreciate the RT.
