• Juicebox Abel has set up a hotline so you can send him questions and feedback for his weekly Juicy Bits podcast.
Guess they somehow found a way around money matches, but does this mean if someone beats Daigo he gets nothing while Daigo still gets the money !
MAN. i'm going to kuwait just to fight Daigo but 18$ is just too much

Oh wow, I certainly didn't expect my video to make it here! Thanks!
I'm sure that rage site consists of alot of event hubbers lol, first thing I thought of when i went to that site.
Sako's Rose >>>>>>>>>>>> Arturo's and Gooteck's Rose COMBINED...enough said.
Interesting how several gamertags show up many times on rage-quitter.com, I was just looking at the SSF4 ragers. Maybe if they get some msgs alerting them that a lot people know they rage they will calm down and not be so angry Or maybe they'll create a new gamertag instead... lol there are some angry people out there
I made this account just to reply here :P anyways:
@MrPavy : Kuwait is not as you think it is :)
@tidestick: Yea even last year daigo came to Kuwait, and the Kuwaiti team went to SBO just months ago (unfortunately they did bad) but they have some really good pro players (They beat alot of Japanese and J.Wong and Marn in Shinjiku Arcade, practicing for SBO :D) but unfortunately they don't go to tournaments and such, they just do tournaments inside Kuwait (Yes, I am a Kuwaiti :P living in Arizona right now :D)
My opinion: 5 Kuwaiti Dinars = $18 is way too much for a regular 3-round match, even with daigo >_>.. you won't have any time to retaliate or even if you win quickly, it's over ;( .. atleast 5-round or maybe even 7-round matches would be much better.. Oh well, if I was back in Kuwait, I'd probably play even though I have 0....0% chance of winning against Daigo :P
Daigo is going to Kuwait! That is pretty gangster. I actually want to go to Kuwait and play there too. I think they have an MMA scene as well so that is a double whammy for me!
