hihi, select wanted me to post this for him cus hes on his phone and couldnt do it himself
__

Rotterdam just made me a dumb kid lol
I didn't miss my flight 3 times in a row
I left home 2 hours before the flight time. I left at 12 40. Flight was 2 40.
However there was car crash has made a traffic. I got airport at 1 57 which is 3minutes late to check in time. She wouldn't let me in. She put me on the next flight which was on 5 30pm to phoenix. But she said u have to be on revenue standby list for the flight from phoenix to austin. I said ok and prayed. I was first on the waiting list but she said people who frequently flys with company (who has like gold and platinum membership) or people who work for company can always get ahead of me. She also said all the flights from phoenix to austin are fully and overbooked for 2 days. But I had no choice I said let me try. I got to phoenix waiting for the flight to austin. Flight time was 9 20pm . I was 3rd on waiting list because 2 people got ahead of me. One of them got a spot cuz someone hasn't checked in. So I was 2nd. And there were 2 ppl missing. So I just had to pray please no one appear. When it was 20 seconds left one guy showed up. So I lost my spot and the other person got his seat. Those shits look so bullshit but it is not -.- its true.
So I am revenue standby list(means who paid for flight and missed flight but has no seat since flights were overbooked) again for tomorrow 9 20 in the morning. I couldn't even sleep in the airport whoe night cuz its so loud and uncomfortable maybe slept like 2 hours. I was first on standby this time but no one missed. So I asked if I can make next one if they think... Cuz I was gonna go back to seattle if not. The guy looked at the computer and helped me to get first class for next flight I guess someone canceled it and I was waiting from since from yesterday so he gave me the seat. Now its 12 05 pm here and this flight is on at 2 35. Departing at 3 arriving at austin at 7 16pm. P.S im not lying a single word here. Every things are dramatically going unlucky for me these days. The whole world must be trolling me as hell. So sad rofl -_-. Also I'm not dumb enough to miss the flight 3 times in a row.

edit: oh its my birthday =[, nerd4life
edit2: select wanted me to add this pic

stupid employee, couldn't she just let him on board? I mean, I see why it might be too late for his baggage, just throw it into the next plane, but why not let him on board? (I was in a similar situation once and the employees at the airport were more merciful).

That sucks. Same thing happened to me with a flight in Shanghai, a terrible crash competely blocked the highway. Fortunately for me, I didn't have a tournament to go to, and my flight had been delayed anyway. Sorry to hear that Select.

Always leave VERY early when going to an airport, this shit happens all the time. You gotta account for bad traffic and shit before it happens, just to make sure. Anyway, bad luck for select, hope he can play in some other tournament soon.

I already said on stream something must have gone very wrong for you to miss 3 flights ;p that's not possible, I just repeated what the admins/producers told me, that you missed 3 flights, obv I realise you didn't manage to not show up for 3 flights in a row ;( i feel for you, hope you're here soon !_! <3

selectuuuu
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a
