Some of those threads haven't been updated in ages and repeat information from eachother. A lot of the videos on the video thread are from like the first day Brawl came out and are extremely nooby (not that I blame the players, it's just old.) The Lucas player finder kind of died a few days after it started and stopped being updated. I have no idea why we have so many Lucas guides and faqs because they all have basically the same information. Really some of these are just plain outdated and either need to be gotten rid of or replaced by more up to date threads that will be updated every once in a while as new developements arise. Do any of these say a thing about the Marth CG stuff in them? It definetly ought to be mentioned in a sticky if it isn't already so people know how to make it less deadly when they come across it.

I think you should give each thread a short description. This suggestion by Trozz is simple, and could help people find what they're looking for faster. This could also be a good spot to put in discretions/warnings like 'this has not been updated in months'.

Something to spruce the op a bit.

Let's figure out which threads havent been updated in a while and then I'll ask a mod to sticky this and unsticky that/those thread/s. That should clean up the stickys while making this thread more useful.

The Lucas player finder and Guide -Everything to Lucas: I've never really understood the importance of the character finder thread. Most the people on the list probably don't play often anyway. AT info is reduntant, considering the other stickies.

Compendium of Lucas Advanced Techniques: Lots of good info, but hasn't been updated in awhile...

Lucas matchup discussion: I don't see why random blocks of text are colorized. Red on dark gray is annoying to read. Great info though; probably the most useful thread on the boards when entering a tournament.

Lucas Video Compendium: Way too many old videos. There needs to be some quality control done. There are some good vids here, but I'd rather surf youtube for people I know are good.

Mother's Boys - The Lucas and Ness FAQ: Two-in-one guides are blah. Seems to be well maintained though. This guide is great for new players.

PK LOVE: The Complete Lucas FAQ: Great for people who get distracted easily. Look! Pictures!


Not sticky worthy? Probably the player finder and the video thread (unless they're remade better).

Zman, it might be a good idea to link to specific threads for specific techniques and strats, such as the one mitani posted.

The PK love and Lucas player finder sticky are pretty much worthless and we ought to get rid of them. The video thread I guess just needs more videos but there really aren't that many out there and since there aren't many big names playing Lucas it might just be worthless for a while yet. I dunno if we should keep it or start a new one. The OP I think is willing to update it's just hard to know what to keep and what to get rid of.

As far as other threads to consider putting on here, I'd add my thundersliding thread (mostly because people keep "discovering" it recently) and the PK Fire spamming thread might be good too. I'm too lazy to put links but if you search for them they ought to be easy to find. Oh the PK Freeze uses thread I did a while back I think would be a good one too. Just some thoughts. If I ever get around to it I'll probably make a guide for PK Thunder, fire and freeze all at once to replace them later.

I feel pressed for time lately, but if you guys ever feel my Mother's Boys guide is out of date, send me a PM and I'll make updating it a priority. There's certainly things missing, but I try to include the most important things as they come to me. And even though I'm not all that active on the forums I do check my PMs nightly.

Demming is almost on the border between NM and Mexico. That sucks cause there ain't **** down there lol. Tell your parents they should get property in Albuquerque because theres girls, smashers, fun ect. up here.

Of course, you could always venture up here to Alburquerque or Rio Rancho when theres tournaments.

Yeah I noticed that the videos are done sloppily, and most are poor quality.

They do an extremely nice job with videos on the Zelda boards.
