[TarkanX]

Okay, where was I.... oh yeah, early October.

Well, before that, I beat someonewith the user name of Stockton to be the first player to have 1,000 wins. It was posted here on the forums by Warmor, so if you want to search it, go right ahead.. I'm too lazy to do it.

Well, the scores reset, and I got first place by a good margin, Nferno666, and baller being 2nd and 3rd respectively. The next version in it's premature stages had it hard on me, and almost cost me being a member of the site. When I played the next version(new version had Wolverine, dashing, and new helpers), I met up against Akuma, just by the name, I knew there would be trouble. I was calm though, but shivering inside. We both fought, and I lost, this wasn't a close match, but this also wasn't a blow out. The dashing thing had affected me so much, and the lag was even higher than before. I went on a rampage swearing, and continously swearing.

I almost got banned at the forum, but then I cooled off, I decided to learn from the new version. I was winning, but mostly losing, until someone(forgot who, I think it was CptnAmerica) told me to reduce my screen size, and so I did. "punch, kick, hadouken, uppercut, spin kick, super moves, basic commands". I had it again, I only had to reduce the site screen resolution, and I got passed the dashing effect, infact, dashing was a main factor for me to win, think of this as 2 people don't want to work with eachother, but if they look deep, they can achieve the greatest things.

I got my revenge on Akuma, and he solemly liked me(the first time we fought, and I bulled on him, he detested me for that, and if you're reading this, and I doubt you ever will, I'm sorry, but we've gotten past that, we are mature people). Zing79 still remained the best for the moment, and Tantum was a silent person, yet he was rank 1. Both him and Zing were the best, so I had to train harder, and harder. The day before TOC1, me and Zing fought a couple of times, and guess who won... yep, he did, some were close, others were blow outs, those blow outs were so I can reserve my super bar. So TOC1 came, and I trained like it was my life, day and night, I fought so many people, whether good or bad, and I kept fighting Zing, but I kept losing.

I got a bye round in TOC1 since I slipped past Tantum to get a hold of rank 1. But the people who used Wolverine got placed further, so every Wolverine user got a bye round. My 2nd round opponent was Silvergo, this was a walk in the park, as I clipped him 3-0. My next opponent, and dear friend at the time, Shadowhetchog would fight it out. He came out hot, since he beat me for the first time ever in many bouts we had the day before our match. Things were unexpected for him as I swept him 3-0. the 4th round, and a person that I feared almost as much as Zing79, was JSL. We were always neck and neck, I win, he wins, and so on. It was always one person would have a bit of life and would come out the victor, although I led the series overall.

It was unexpected as I beat him 3-0, I was surprised, he said his thanks, and signed off.... I felt sorry for him, but I had to continue on for my journey to success for the first time, rank meant nothing to me. Although I beat JSL, I didn't think he was trying his best, we fought at 8:00 pm CST my time which would be about 3:00am his time(he lived in London). He was probably tired, so didn't do his best, or there might have been other things... only he knows the most about our series fight in TOC1.

My next opponent was the person who I showed this site to, Token. Token was much different than before, it was a while since I last fought him, so I didn't know what to expect, and what I expected was far from his talent. On the first match, he slaughtered me, and when I mean that, I mean there was nothing I could do, I was in the corner of the ring getting pummeled by his blows which were as powerful as Mike Tyson's fists in his prime. In the 2nd match, we were toe to toe, Goku vs Vegeta: round two. We kept dodging supers that were thrown at us, we were probably the fastest in the site ever, these new players wouldn't stand a chance against our speed. I won the 2nd match, and he won the 3rd, and then, my life flashed before my eyes. I was transed, in the world of 2nd rate, my eyes, my head, they couldn't relate(I wasn't trying to rhyme by the way).

I cooked up some ramen noodles and ate them out of a pot. I was ready to go, no holding back, the Tarkan"X" was ready to be unleashed.... I won by a little bit in our 4th match, and them I did something that I always think about, and would never regret. *big sigh* I cheated, yes I did cheat, how did I do it? In our 5th, and final match, Token humiliated me in round 1, and in round 2, I was on the verge of losing, so I disconnected the site, and waited for about an hour to play the site again. After an hour was up, I checked the forum, and I saw that Token posted our match-up saying that we tied 2-2, then the site got disconnected. If the site snesed that I left the site instead of the synchronization losing connection, I would've lost the series, since i would have to admit that I disconnected from the site on purpose, and even if I dind't lie, he would obviously find out.

So I played the 5th match seriously, and I won(it wasn't close, but it wasn't a blow out). Although I felt relieved, I also felt like a cheater, especially since is the biggest tournament at the time(and the biggest tournament ever). We both said our congrats, and Token went off for a while. My next opponent was supposed to be Tantum, but I was supposed to e-mail him about the the fight, since I hardly ever check my e-mail, I didn't e-mail him, so I was DQed. I pleaded to Zing that I was at work, in which I actually wasn't(2 cheats in one tournament). He decided that Tantum would then advance to the finals, but me and Zing would face off for who would face Tantum in the finals. Since I hosted first, I had a bit of an advantage. Every match was close, and it went to 5 sites, but the person who hosted the match always won the match, and so obviously, I won the site in a close yet memorable duel. I advanced to the finals, it felt like Necro2k1's tournament all over again, but I still had a chance, since this was a best of 5, instead of 1.

I went up against Tantum, who was probably the most fiercest guy in the site(next to Token, and Zing). People at the forum were cheering on Tantum to win, since they thought what i did of getting DQed, and being unDQed was "unconsitutional". I shrugged off the boos, and fought. I won, he won, then I won the next 2. I was held as the victor of Tournament of Champions, I finally did it, I achieved maximum glory for the first time ever, no more a second rate, but a first rate! But.... I also felt another part of me was a cheater, not a second rate, but an infinite rate. I was not a true warrior, but a person who uses the cheap way out, and doesn't help his fellow side, and let them die brutally. Tantum bragged that I lagged, but I was finally the winner. I don't think I would've won though, if me and Token fought it out in match 5, he would've obviously won, he would douce Tantum 3-1, and beat Zing 3-2. He was underhyped, and if he won, he would have so much more recognition, I didn't deserve this recognition.....


Coming up, TMyApp hates me? Maybe... what, a new character comes?!?!?! Chunli!!!! And who's this new fighter people speak of, training time! Coming up next...
