Backroom Members have been inducted!.
Thank you all for your submissions. This time, the voting was particularly harsh, and I feel more of the members who applied could easily have made it in with a little more meaningful forum contribution. Without further ado, let me present the new backroom members!

All four have shown a willingness to participate and contribute through the application process, as well as general forum activity.
Before any complaints get raised, all inductees pledged to be active in the backroom and offered plenty to convince us of their potential. Cases such as Fireblaster and some of the Europeans are precedent: they have contributed quite reasonably, despite low posting activity in the main forums. Please note that any complaints or flaming of this kind may lead to penalties.

Hi again. This is the second round of admissions for the 64 Backroom. The application process will again be conducted via PM, so please do not post your application in this thread. It is highly recommended that PMs are sent to all 3 Backroom Leaders (SuPeRbOoM, asianaussie, and Surri-Sama). Please note that your applications will likely be posted in the backroom itself for critique, so you aren't trying just to show off to the leaders, but also to the current members. As to how much weight each individual member has on the vote...that's a secret 
Do not forget to apply for membership to the 64 Back Room group in the User CP (under Group Memberships).

The SSB64 Backroom is still a work in process. This round of admissions is going to go a long way towards shaping it into a highly contributing part of the 64 community. Please take the application process seriously. Intellectual discussion and regular informed contribution is expected from backroomers, so please keep this in mind if you intend to apply that we want people that are going to properly represent the group and make real contributions. If you are not sure if this is you, or you have the time right now, do not apply.
Note that this round's "criteria" are significantly stricter than last rounds, and that I personally anticipate the absolute maximum number of successful applicants will be about 5.
Structuring Your Application
Smashboards Username (a formality)
Aliases on Kaillera servers (if applicable)
Location (Region if in US, country if not)
Character Main (You will be expected to contribute to discussion on this main. If you do you believe you specialise enough to contribute, indicate so - this will not be penalised in consideration)
Secondary Characters
What sort of history do you have playing the Super Smash Brothers series?
What level of player do you consider yourself? How do you compare to the community at large? Do you have any results (if you do have results, links would be appreciated) or personal recommendations from other SWF members to back up that claim?
Which aspect of SSB64 do you have confidence with? Do you specialize yourself in knowing select characters? Do you have considerable knowledge about 64's physics engine? Maybe you are good at devising training mode combos. Please elaborate on what you think you specialize in.
How often do you attend console/online tournaments? Specify between console/online.
Are you a Tournament Organiser yourself? If so, how successful are your tournaments? Again, please specify whether the tournament was console or online.
Have you made topics, posts, or videos that benefit the community as a whole? Please indicate relevant contributions with links.
What opinions do you have on the current published tier list and ruleset? All insightful responses are welcome, and extended responses will be read and considered. Show off your ability to be concise and persuasive.
What do you plan to bring to the SSB64 Backroom that others may not be able to offer?
Is there anything else you would like us to take into account for your selection? Please show your initiative and willingness to be an active, contributing member to the backroom.
Feel free to quote this application guideline and respond in the given gaps when PMing the application to us.
Do note that pleasing formatting is strongly recommended. While it may not affect our position, studies have shown aesthetic sense to reflect well on the artist (or applicant, in this case).
Surri, A$, Blue Yoshi or wandering mod, please sticky and label as [IMPORTANT]
Do not forget to apply for membership to the 64 Back Room group in the User CP (under Group Memberships).
