More stuff unrelated to my gallery, but figured I might as well bother putting a cap onto the previous journal entry. To sum up the experience, it went better than expected and much fun (and performance anxiety) was had. And despite fighting games nowadays being known to have a very vocally toxic and negative playerbase everyone I met was super friendly and encouraging despite everyone wanting to win and get as far as possible in the tournaments they entered.

To elaborate on anything else: My dip into competitive Smash Bros. went as well as I figured. Got completely destroyed in my first matches. Dragon Ball FighterZ went way better and for my first time attending a major tournament some people said I didn't do so bad. Managed to get placed in rank #65 out of a list of over 600 players.
But since there were so many players the further down you are in rankings, other people's winning stats will be the same as yours or similar so a lot of people can share the same rank as you. There were 32 contestants that were ranked 65 along with me and after that, people were ranked 97 and so on. So it'd be more accurate to say I managed to be within the top 65-96 players at the event. Funny enough the opponents that beat me in winners and losers bracket made it to rank 25 and 33 so props to them.
For my first real tournament experience it went better than my worst expectations but I would have liked to make it to top 48 players. I'll just have to use that desire to improve my gameplay should I ever decide to compete in another major fighting game event anytime soon, though I'll probably be waiting a whole 'nother year for CEO and sticking with small scale local tournies as traveling around the world to participate in fighting games is just too expensive of a luxury.
Speaking of luxuries, more stuff for the gallery is on the way. Eventually. Hopefully there'll be something smutty before the end of the month...or at the very least a cute or sexy bikini pic.
