    Any Smashers in Cambridge?!

    I live near Cambridge, and I have a pretty flexible work schedule. I'm sure my wife would like to see me out of the house too. Can someone bring me up to speed on how the Cambridge community looks? About how many "regulars" are there? Or is it just one-on-ones and not many gatherings? I would...

    Balanced Brawl Standard Release

    Balanced Brawl, and the idea behind all Brawl hacks, in addition to the Dolphin emulator (dunno if you're allowed to discuss emulators here, haven't been here in a long time, and maybe I'm spoiled by the freedom of other boards...if you aren't allowed, mods, please go ahead and delete this post...

    Yeah man, it was good for me. I'm getting back into smash big time. My hit percentage is up 10%-20% every match from my old average. I think that's what you gave me the most, a reason to time my attacks better. I also upgraded DK to a main and I'm doing pretty good with him. Amazing what a few...

    Afraid not, I have satellite internet which means lots of lag, plus data usage caps. Unless you happen to live in the Reno, NV area, it's a no-go.

    I'm moving there in early February 2009, and I think...I'll be there until sometime in early June. Sorry if there was any confusion about when I was moving to MS. =X

    Mississippi Thread - MSU Monthlies!

    New info, I just found out that I'll only be in Mississippi for four months, not a year as I previously thought. But I will still be there sometime in February.

    Mississippi Thread - MSU Monthlies!

    Hah, you guys don't know how good you have it. Nevada is empty as far as serious smashers go. There might be some in Vegas, but certainly not in mid/northern Nevada. And South Carolina was even worse. The fact that you have even played people who have played in tournaments is impressive to...

    Mississippi Thread - MSU Monthlies!

    Oh god, not egg time. I forgot who I was playing against him with, but I couldn't hit him for like 30 seconds. Hahaha But yeah man, seriously, he said you improved a lot between two times that you played him, and he was like, whoa. So hopefully I can give you a good match and/or the other way...

    Mississippi Thread - MSU Monthlies!

    I definitely will. KOkingpin said good things about you. You say Biloxi people...that's exciting to me, because even having one other competitive player to play with would be great. I know most of the Mississippi crowd bemoans the lack of competition, but hopefully we can make something of...

    Mississippi Thread - MSU Monthlies!

    Oh, don't get me wrong, I'll take any chance to play any of the SSB games. It's just that I prefer Melee to the other two. I'll make sure to brush up on my Brawl so you brawlers will have someone to play against too. In Brawl I play a lot of characters like in Melee. Probably more than 20. If...

    New MS smasher ^Gulfport, eh? I'll be living in Biloxi next year, if you'll still be there in Gulfport I'll be able to play you pretty regularly if you're up for it, since it's not too far of a drive. Btw, I'm Phoenix everyone, and like I said, I'll be living in Biloxi pretty soon (by...

    Gamestop Tournament Tips and Info!

    My take on the whole thing: This will just be a fun tournament. It doesn't really offer any prizes, except to the top 8 finishers in the country, so everyone else will just be S.O.L. as far as that goes. As for pride, there's really no pride in winning this tournament, since the rules are...

    A very easy idea of how to stop all this Brawl tier list nonsense.

    The drama over tier lists exists because new players and scrubs don't understand what tier lists are. I know this because I was arguing tier lists as far back as 2003. The way to "stop all this Brawl tier list nonsense" is very easy. First, you have to explain what the tier list is. It's an...

    What Sakurai is Doing: An Essay Regarding the Possibilty of Multi-Dimensional Tiers

    This is a useful analysis, but only if you think Sakurai is developing this game for hardcore players only. The thing is, the development team has to take into account balance over a wide range of play modes; ffa, single player, events, team matches, item matches, 1-on-1 matches, coin matches...
