***Updated***

I have started the framework for this and put everyone who has expressed interest in the list.

You can find it here: http://students.uww.edu/dullikm13/finder.txt

Add your info if you haven't already.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was lounging around in the Ness specific area tonight and saw that they had a Ness finder. And I said to myself, "why isn't there a general smasher finder?"

I am aware of the smasher by region but that has become a "FAILURE"(-announcer)

So I propose that this thread become like the Ness finder thread. You post, in order please, your state, city, character and range(how far you'd drive for casual smash and, seperated by a slash, your tourney range, all in hours.)

Example: Wisconsin, Madison, Young Link, 1/4.

so this means that I live in Madison Wisconsin, play Young Link and would drive an hour for casual smash but four hours for a tournament.

Why do this? because hopefully people who are new and don't know everyone's address and e-mails (CORY[just playin{*high five*}]) will be able to find someone and play, and also people starting tourneys that are small can see whether or not they can get a lot of people.

Case in point: last year me and Fasting held a tourney and we thought nobody lived nearby so we expected 5 people (our crew) but surprisingly we got 20-25. Result was an insufficent venue and a lack luster smash tourney.

Will this work better than smasher by region? Hopefully. there are people browsing this forum that, at the request of the tourney host, will compile a list of the 60+ people going to said tourney. So if the thread is stickied and people respond then me or someone else can compile a downloadable database.

Well now that I have contributed, what I think is a good idea, to the boards for the first time I will impose one rule which I will star so that people read at least that part of this seemingly long thread.

method: This is very easy and after talking to aho here is the extremely easy way this will happen.

1) Joe smasher gets webspace.
2) make a sorted list of smashers
3) link the boards to it
4) billy smasher goes there and presses 'Ctrl' and 'F' at the same time on his "keyboard" and does a search.
5) He finds another scrub and plays smash with him.
6) goes back to the boards and complains about Joe's Marth
7) the cycle of smash continues for generations to come.

I'm new to these boards, but I've been playing smash ever since SSB64 came out. I guess people will get to know me over time.

In Holland, we don't have states, but oh well. <_<;;

Zuid-Holland, Leiden, Sheik/Falcon/Marth (but most of the cast anyway, I can't choose. =p), 1/3.

Edit: when going to a tournament by plane and the like, I don't really care about the length. Just so you know.

Sacramento, CA, Ness, 1/2

and just so everyone knows....ness section has the best threads

yyg and ness finder threads each have more replies than any other thread in the character specific section...except for that cheating Link Guide that is stickied.


We deserve a prize.

If someone could help me to make an scribt, I could host a region thing on my site >_>

Like, just fill in a formula of sorts (country, state if the country has them, characters possibly, how far to travel for casual/tournaments), and submit to the database ;D

Then a search feature or something :3

Anyone up for the task of helping/making a script?

And for the sake of the thread:


Sweden, Skara, Everyone but Peach and Link, 1/as far as my money takes me

Okay maybe the char thing isn't necessary but at least put your hour info that is one of the main reasons for this, is to make more tourneys once people see how many people they can net.


keep putting chars though. and just put one. The char you'd pick if someone was playing you for your Cube, your copy of smash and your controller all in one game, but if you won you got to kill them.
(Edit: wow that is really hardcore of me :) /Edit)

here's mine

Wisconsin, Madison, YoungLink, 1/4

STATE FIRST, imagine a big list of info, reading states organized on the left will be really easy.

keep in mind that this hour stuff should be a conservative estimate, like say if there was some non major tourney that popped up in your area, not how far you'd go for MOAST4.

I actually like it better with the states listed first then cities etc. *shrug* Maybe that's just me. Doesn't help having the names of people in a list if you don't know who they are yet. (since this is about finding smashers)
