The Site Layout
There are 3 parts to the front page of the site, the navigation bar, the match feed, and the rankings. The match feed is to the left and it shows about 30 of the recent matches played ordered chronologically. A YouTube icon means the match has a recording uploaded and you can click the match to watch it. If you have the video for a match, simply click on the match and drop the youtube link in to upload the video.
The rankings are in the middle and they show the ranks of each player and their activated characters. Clicking on a player opens up their player profile where you can see their past matches, send them a message, or send them a challenge to play a match.The actual rules and math that inform the rankings can be found below.
The navigation bar, or control panel, is at the top of the display. The first tab in the bar, Login/Sign Up, will allow you to register a new account or log in an existing one. This tab doubles as the settings tab: Once you are logged in, it will display your name and clicking on it will allow you to reset your email or password, and disable notification sounds. Next up is the Characters tab where you can register any characters you want, even all 12! The Matches tab is where accepted challenges go, turning into a match results form for incredibly easy match reporting, getting you back to your next match in no time at all. This also displays all matches you have played in: Red text for a defeat, whereas green represents a win. On to the Challenges tab for a list of all your sent and received challenges. You can accept or decline challenges, if you change your mind then you can also cancel challenges you already sent. To be used for real-time private chats, the Messages tab is the primary method to communicate with fellow Smashers, not to mention getting important notifications from MasterHand. You can chat privately with any players to set up match times or just chat and see how they’re doing. Messages are ordered with the most recently active at the top, however, the first message will always be from MasterHand, simply reply here with any problems or questions! Finally, in addition to messages and challenges, the Match Lobby tab is another way to find and schedule matches. Although, most players use it as a persistent chat during games, without losing the conversation or the opponent when desynch happens. No more logging back into the server after last desynch just to say GGS! This has already become a player favorite: Finally a chat free of garbage, of trolls, and truly dedicated to the greatest game ever made, Super Smash Bros 64. Hang out with other smashers and chat, while waiting to find available people to play, discuss anything and everything Smash 64, or click on any player in the lobby to go right to their profile and challenge them! Also, in the top right corner, Find A Smasher provides an incredibly predictive player search. This is another way to select player profiles; you can always simply click on anywhere you see a Smashers name to display their information.
How It All Works
With a full launch coming soon, we’ll focus on the fully functional Rankings. Everything is done automatically, it takes about 15 seconds to report a match. You can report any kind of match: console, online, tournament, friendly, practice, etc. This is a repository of all matches of Smash 64.
All matches.
In order for a match to be a reported match it has a couple steps it needs to take. Only one step involves both players, besides playing; this is to authenticate that the match is agreed upon by both players. The first step in reporting a match is sending a challenge. A challenge is sent to another player and in order for it to grow into a pending match, it must be accepted by the opponent. Accepting a challenge creates a match reporting form for both players, accessible under the Matches tab in the Awaiting Results section. It needs to be accepted first to prevent actual matches from being created without both players’ consent. Challenges are not binding and can be declined at any time, perhaps because not everyone will have the availability to play whenever someone else wants them to or they just simply don’t want to play. A match cannot be cancelled, once a challenge has been accepted and the reporting form appears in the Awaiting Results section. The match can then be played, or might already have been, depending on the order you do this in. You need the following information to enter the results of your match: Date, in MM/DD/YYYY, the stage and initial stock count, and the final stock count for the winner. Click on the winner’s name to report. Eligibility for a match to be Ranked determined automatically; each match is checked to make sure it meets the Tier and Date criteria of being a ranked match. If it is eligible, a checkbox allowing you to select whether or not the match was Ranked will appear. When one person reports a match, a notification is sent to the other player telling them to confirm the match results. If only one person reports the match, it will go through but it won’t be a fully matured reported match. When both players have confirmed the match and reported the same results, then the match is now a fully mature reported match and the process is now complete.
Here we run into some terminology: Rankings, Ranked, and Unranked. Rankings refers to the entirety of the system, to wit: “Are you registered for the Rankings on SuperSmashBros64.com?” or “Play Smash 64? You should get official, get on the Rankings!” Unranked matches are literally any match of Super Smash Bros 64 that has a minimum stock count of 4. Ranked matches are merely Unranked matches that meet the criteria and are declared as such by the players.
