Well talking from experience, this community is nowhere near as bad as Shoryuken or the typical MobA site. Though I have followed the BB competitive scene for years, I recently started playing it about 6 months ago because I was finally able to afford as PS3, so as a result, I began looking for fighting game sites similar to Team Liquid and regularly visited Jourdal's stream and I was treated pretty well. As long as I showed real interest in getting better, admit that I am a noob like those guys were once before, and asked well thought out questions, I did not get flamed. And having played Brood War on a competitive level at one point (not Korean level), I know what it feels like when you have newcomers who think they know it all, develop these god awful strategies and brag about it, and constantly talk about how good their are when in reality, they are crap.

If you are Chie and AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA all day, then yes

I will be unable to make it since Vegas on the opposite side of the US D: But will there be streaming available on the official site or is this mostly a Dustloop event?

Hey, I live in Williamsport PA which is in the middle of nowhere but I can meet up with people in State College sometime. I know that every year, there is an anime convention called Setsucon and there are a fair amount of BB/GG players there.

The main reason I got into it was because I am really into e-sports. So to learn more about e-sports, I researched it on Wikipedia and came across SBO back in 2008. The game I liked in particular was Melty Blood. Then one year later, BlazBlue was shown and even though I knew nothing about fighting games being a hardcore StarCraft player, I really enjoyed it. Then I saw it at EVO and enjoyed it more than Street Fighter. Now it is 2012 and I finally got a PS3, BBCSE, and a bunch of fighting games after BW died with the arrival of StarCraft II and I have been spending hours learning combos, theory, and the professional scene. But in reality, I think I just play this game because Jin is really cute ^__^
