Actually, that is OBVIOUSLY fake if you look at the characters. He mixes hiragana and katakana where the two really shouldn't be shown together; he also uses the kanji for "down" on Sonic's FAir. :laugh:

Nothin' to see here, folks.

That was simple. Fake.
All you proved is that they were edited in Photoshop right before they were posted. I use photoshop all the time for cropping/resizing, so it COULD have been just that.

However, as Aeris pointed out, anyone who knows Japanese can tell they're fake:
"やっュ"= mixing hiragana and katakana and also since the "ユ" is small it's not even close to being an actual word. Basically, they did this: "gh4g2hi" in Japanese.
"ャージ" is another nonexistant scramble of letters.

rapscouter's new post added; thealmightygoat OFFICIALLY debunked.

I hope that the roster is photographed, so I can debunk some more :D

Haha wow, you guys are really bad detectives.

No, I'm not the 26 year old chaoszero on myspace.

I made a smash bros 300 trailer thing on youtube that I told everyone about. That was direct access to my youtube account. There's a decent amount of info on there as well, as well as a link to my myspace.

Be a little more diligent in your investigation.

I think I'll reveal a bit more info about my source, seeing as how the internet is going to blow up tonight.

He was a tester. I know that's rehashed and contrite for a source, but its the truth. He was under the NDA, so I don't know why he so openly bragged about this stuff. And yes, there are testers in America.

He said something about Pit's final smash being buggy and locking up the game if you died while it was happening, or something to that effect. Not really any good info or anything, just a funny little story.

Anyway, I'm 21, if you were at all wondering.

Question: Should I stay around for this whole WHOBBY thing, I'm not sure I want anything else spoiled for me?

Dunno if Whobby is actually going to reveal new characters. If you don't want to see anything, don't look. :0

Darn you Whobby! (Yes, I act as if Whobby is a real person) The only thing I can wait for is to debunk someone via an AT.

Shouldn't guy #6 be brought back, due to the truth about the whole CoroCoro Shiek thing?

...okay, does anybody have any idea what the heck this comment means?

Its just another demo, so I doubt it'll spoil anything important. At worst an AT or Pokèball might deconfirm someone, but that'd be all that could happen.

Frankly, even though we DIDN'T get any confirmation of Zelda's Down+B, many are 99% certain that Sheik will be returning. I didn't entirely buy the fact that his details were REALLY fuzzy regarding Sheik anyway. I may change the reasoning behind his debunking, but I can't figure out what exactly to say about him :/

I would advise against debunking someone for predicting something that you personally don't THINK will happen.

Where and when does Serebii de-confirm anything? Does he post here? I can't find anything about it at his website. And can we really trust anyone who thinks it's "rosta" and not "roster?"

Alright, I suppose you're right. This thread isn't really about my predictions, it's a catalogue of other predictions. I will repost Vatro Xu.

Well I found this "Leak", nothing that gives away it being fake for now, but she'll prolly slip-up eventually.
It has Ashley, Lethe, and Apollo Justice for crying out loud. Shes not even trying to make it realistic or believable. Its one of those things thats deconfirmed by simple common sense.

Re: Serebii - You know, shouldn't he be in the index as a leaker? As many have pointed out, its not like he has any more credibility than anyone else. And it'd be nice to have everything hes supposed confirmed/debunked in one convenient reference point.

Re-added Vatro Xu, as he technically wasn't debunked yet. I'll make a separate section for Serebii, since he does technically not have as much credibility on this forum as he would like, so he would be considered a leaker. However, his section will be INCREDIBLY small (like two or three bullets), since he's barely said a thing.

It looks like rapscouter will soon be proven fake or not. Isn't next week the deadline for his supposed 3rd party announcement on the Dojo?

Honestly, I wouldn't mind his stuff being true, oh well, we'll see...

Rapscouter says that in each segment, three statements are lies. Granted, if the third 3rd party is next week, his credibility will go up. A lot.

The thing about rapscouter is that we can't debunk him until we find more than 3 lies in one of his posts. Honestly, imo rapscouter's leak just seems like a clever hoax, because we won't know the lies until we get a leak with evidence.

However, rapscouter DID leak quite a few 100% true facts about Pokemon Diamond and Pearl a while back. Which is why I put him up, since he DOES have credibility. However, he didn't do the puzzling stuff back then...

By Friday, if no 3rd Party on DOJO, one strike against him.

I know, right?!?!?

Actually, the underlying reason I created the index was...(this might sound silly) but to attempt to find the REAL leaked roster. We didn't have one of these when Melee was on the brink of coming out, and everyone was attacking each other. This way, we can derive a pattern, and see who's fibbing and who's telling the truth.

The prophet debunking is a bonus :D

I really want to see where Serebii specifically states that Mewtwo is not going to be in Brawl, and is being replaced by Lucario. I'm really tired of seeing, "anything with Mewtwo is immediately debunked!" If I remember correctly, he never said Mewtwo was being taken out of the game.

Can someone direct me to where this was said?

Basically, scroll the "Rumors Run Rampant" thread. Serebii makes his presence known a lot in there. Usually, from what I've seen, he describes outlandish rosters that just so happen to have both Lucario & Mewtwo on them to be false.

Wasn't Sheik confirmed by CoroCoro. The explanation is said to translate explicitly to "Twilight Sheik Transformation." Its the print next to the name of the move Twilight Transform.

Would't this debunk Vatro Xu, since he says otherwise?

-Monty Mole, and Professor E. Gadd are assist trophies. (Monty Mole confirmed at Whobby 2008)
Wait, that's not really right at all... Muddy Mole's been confirmed as an assist trophy at Whobby 2008. Monty Mole is just a rather plain mole enemy in the Mario series, and Muddy Mole is from a Gameboy Game called Mole Mania, which Sakurai apparently likes a whole bunch.

So I think you should fix this quote, since a more important mole being an assist trophy could very well mean this quote is actually a lie... unless you somehow think Rapscouter got his moles mixed up, or he's just been lying all this time and knows nothing, but that's for later! :p

He can't and won't actually say it. But he debunks rosters with Mewtwo and no Lucario.
