You play Gief and walk into your own corner, expecting people to come to you, the big guy with massive health with arguably the best Anti-Air in the game that can mash out 360s to punish whiffed specials, whiffed blockstrings, whiffed anything.
It's like the least effective way to play Gief^^

Me too ^^ I really like to test it, but I don't think there's a "mame" version or something else who run on PC.
And Lim, what are you doing, why don't you get back on it?
Look at that knob end in the glasses, walking around with the Tournament controller under his arm.
'Oh, look at me, I'm attending tournaments with my tournament controller. This is how I let people know I'm leet. Shit, somebody is taking a photo, I better make sure I'm right in the centre of it! Otherwise people will think I'm just a spectator!'
It was at the Stunfest X, it's classified 3 rd worldwilde (I'm not sure, but read that on papernews).
I'm not on the pict, just take it fastly coz I hate to disturb someone playing, espacielly when it's Tokido .

...Hope that's not you Neo......
Street Fighter originally was an arcade game as you know, which came with with the arcade-typical stick + 6 buttons. Many people that use arcade sticks are doing it because they've played since the days of SF2 and are simply used to this interface, and not because they want to feel like a pro.
Although you're right, there's quite some people that are actually being elitist pricks and think you need a stick in order to improve your execution and play well. In fact, there are quite some pad players that manage to basically come out of (almost) nowhere and beat some of the best players.
Sanford Kelly is one of the best players from the East Coast, usually ranking very high in most tournaments, and he uses a stick. Inthul is a pad player that was pretty much unknown - until ECT2
This is what happened to the shoryuken.com forums during/after the live stream of the tournament:

Oh wait, that's Tokido? Haha didn't recognise him, probably because I've never seen a picture of him before
In that case I think I've heard about that tournament - Tokido placed "only" 3rd there, 1st and 2nd were being taken by a Fei Long and a Rose player respectively (and the Rose player actually beat Daigo at another tourney afaik).
