I'm that gaffer, and I can assure you he never sent that stick. Been well over a year. He kept emailing me for about 2 months after the raffle with all kinds of reasons why he hadn't sent it yet. After awhile I started losing interest in Street Fighter so didn't bother keeping up with him about it. A few months later, someone asked me if I had gotten it yet, so I decided to ask him about it and he said something like "you'll have it by December or I'll paypal you $200" . I never received a stick (or $200) and when I emailed him again to ask about it he simply stopped responding.

I don't care enough to harass him about it but given his stance on this it's pretty hilarious. Funding your trip to EVO with money from a raffle that 30 or so people entered (including other gaffers) and never sending out the prize is pretty shitty.

Also, apparently Marn sold his sticks to get into the SBO tourney.

Smfh.

Marn calling someone an asshole. Lol

The irony.

Do you still have all those emails?

This is so stupid.

All this gate keeper talk stemmed from Marn can't taking some losses. Even if there were no Gatekeepers he still wouldn't have qualified for SBO. He ain't that good and he doesn't deserve to represent USA in Marvel over the likes of KillerKai and Justin Wong.

There is no rule against gate keeping so Marn has to hold that shit deep in his chest.
 
So if Marn had to sell sticks to get into the SBO tourney, where was he going to get the rest of the money for the trip? Shit makes no sense.
