Were you ever the gamer at the arcade that people lined up to challenge?

Over the years, I was that guy at one time or another at:
SF2:WW
SF2:CE
NBA Jam
MK2
UMK3 (cheap ass Cyrax
Last Blade (I actually counted, I was something like 150-10 in that game)
Samurai Showdown 4 (my homie was the best, he taught me the game and I ended up his only competition)
Killer Instinct
NFL Blitz (we gambled on that all the time. Another instance where the best taught me, but this time I took his spot. He still owes me like 70 off the last time we played
. I paid my rent for a few months just beating the local hustlers at that game)
SC2
SC3
MVC1 (Eddie Lee came to Baltimore for some reason, ended up at the spot, bodied everyone(War Machine/Gold War Machine
, told me I was the only one that was any good. True Story)
MVC2 (Before people started traveling and the tournament scene popped off, I ran this game, but I never traveled much, and got left behind. I still hung with almost everyone due to raw skill and shoryuken.com)
The glory days of arcades
. Sometimes I wish I traveled and became a top player. I was too busy wasting time being with the wrong bish

Involved in things I don't know much about
SF2 with Ken
Marvel vs Capcom 2 (Ken,Strider,Cable>>>)
One of my crowning achievements was in Killer Instinct; Orchid or Cinder could not be stopped and most of the kids back then never learned how to do the combo breakers so if you started one it was curtains. Reel off like 5 good combos and break theirs and you were good money.
Other than that I was busy trying to take down the hi score on any Ms PacMan game I found

No but I was always the dikk that wanted to play 2 times in a row. This nikka on Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 was killing everybody, and I wanted to go twice LOL. People in line were like
I was like
. Dude beat me pretty easily both times
Where I come from that's a good way to get the living shyt beat out of you.
Killer Instinct. I used to fukk you up with Sabrewulf, pull the Ultra combo...
Then let go of the buttons while the Ultra Combo was happening, look at you then I sip on my soda...
And then look to the side to see who was next on some
shyt.I wanted to be great at Samurai Showdown....but I had these Asians at my spot who where God like. They used to beat motherfukkers with no remorse. You'd come up there, put your quarters in, and dude would look at you with the utmost disgust...like you're wasting his time even touching the machine. Then he'd beat the shyt out of you on some double perfect shyt and wouldn't even look at you after he won. He just wanted you to fukking leave.
These bytch ass kids now missed out on the era of Arcades...
