Hey, Smashboards. Heard lots about you from /r/smashbros. I go by /u/mtagmann there and on the Nintendo Network. Figured that if I wanted to start getting involved in the Smash Scene, I should probably make an account here. The first Smash game I played was 64, waaaayyyy back when. Probably like 98 or 99. First smash I owned was Melee. Bought a Wii for Brawl, and a WiiU for Sm4sh.

My particular favorite of the bunch would probably be Project M (#roy4lyfe), though, truth be told, I'm absolute garbage at it, so, hey, there's that.

Lots of good memories with Smash in the past -- my dorm floor used to have constant Smash games going somewhere on the floor. Only one of us was close to competitive, and he didn't fare too well at the tourney he went to at OSU. So, we weren't super good, but it was lots of fun to play with all those guys.

Looking forward to Smash 4, and hoping to join up with the competitive scene that (hopefully!) comes up around it.

If any of you are located around the South Side of Chicago and are potentially interested in getting a Smash 4 scene started up when the WiiU version comes out, hit me up.

Anyway, that's my intro. Looking forward to smashtalkin' with all of you.

Dig the Roy support. I have Fire Emblem pride in general :p

This forum is the ideal place for looking for nearby Smashers to play, so you can either join in on a scene if there is one around or you can find some people interested there. I know Chicago is pretty popular for Project M with the Windycity weeklies they have (I think they're weeklies, don't quote me on that though), so you shouldn't find it to be much of a hassle when it comes to playing with others.

Look forward to seeing you around on the forums!

Awesome! Thanks a bunch.

Fire Emblem's so good. Despite there being way too many blue-haired, caped swordsmen, I almost hope they throw Chrom in Sm4sh, too. Or Robin/Avatar, that'd be great.

Also, I dig your sig. Black Lagoon rocks!

I have no choice but to friend you. If you appreciate the greatness that is Fire Emblem and Black Lagoon :cry:

Ha ha, really, good on you for joining!

Cool! I've got a friend now!

This site seems way more in depth than any other forum -- the profiles look like facebook, there's a way to follow people's posts, I guess, and it's super active. I'm definitely looking forward to learning how to use it. Must have taken forever to code it all :p

A good place to start would be The User Guide. It has all the info you could ever want.

You'll definitely have a great time here though. The atmosphere is pretty nice around here and it's a great place for discussions of many topics you'd be interested in.

Welcome to SWF Cypher! Seems like Hokori covered pretty much everything...except that you have a new lord and savior. Who you may ask? Why the Emperor of course. Praise his name! Glory to the House of El!

Thanks for the link, Hokori! I'll definitely give it a read!

Who's this Emporer, Old Man Grey? And what has he done for me recently? :p

* * *

Edit: just realized the Emporer is Superman! I'm running real low on sleep, haha.

The real question is...what is there left for him to do for you that he has not done already?

He watches over you and keeps the heretics away. He's also doing what needs to be done.

Dang, that looks like a Superman comic I'd want to read, and an Emperor I'd gladly bend the knee to :p

Could you link me to a place to buy the source material, Old Man Grey?

Thing is though, this comic takes place in an alternative world and alot of the characters end up committing actions out of characters. It's a fun read but it's not a good series to take to hear. Morrison's Action Comics are a way better start if you're interested.
