When I play against the computer, I finish and get an amount of stars underneath my name. Why are those stars there and what do they mean?
Also, do you guys know how to make it so that the text I write is hidden? By hidden I mean that you have to click a tab in order to read it.

Those stars are the amount of KO's you've gotten under your name.
To get the "tab thingy", you're probably referring to collapse tags. They are:
[collapse="Your Title"]Your Text. [/collapse*] without the asterisk.

What are good ways to get better at brawl without being able to play against anyone else? Wifi is okay but it will always lag because everyone I play with is in the states and I am in germany (gogo NTSC brawl hacks vs. PAL brawl hacks >.<)... What can I practice alone?

I find that not playing the game makes you better, no joke but that's usually when you play for a while and notice that your not improving.
I like to go into training mode and muck around in there just playing around and usually I'll find something interesting which I go and test some more on different stages and different characters, and then after all that I play some CPU's to see if this "interesting" thing I find is actually useful in battle.
Also you should find some Germans to wifi with.

I need to find germans with NTSC copies of the game and hacked wiis. That's like finding a neo-nazi in germany these days.

The furthest right group is the NPD, and they can't get 5% of the vote. I think they got about as much as the Pirate Party earlier this year.

Lol, sorry, I'm terribly informed of European politics. Shouldn't of opened my mouth in the first place.
Also, read up a little on the Pirate Party. They're pretty awesome.
EDIT: Holy crap, the US has one too!

Step 1: SHDL (Short Hop Double Laser)
Step 2: When they get too close to safely SHDL, IAP (Instant Aerial Phantasm)
Step 3: Repeat
Step 4: Go check out the Falco boards. :V
Step 5: Go watch videos of DEHF on youtube.

What do I do after I predict the opponent? I keep losing to a lot of noob players lately, I know what they're going to do, but I have no idea how to counter it.

What's helpful is to work out situations like this before you get into a match. You basically want to theorycraft and then practice applying it after you've got it figured out.
It's a pretty simple process. For example:
1.) Pose a question. "What should I do if someone jump's towards me while I'm standing?"
2.) Consider some options. "Jab, ftilt, and DB all have hitboxes that can hit an aerial opponent."
3.) Weight which of these is most fit for the situation. "Jab is fast, largely disjointed, not much cooldown. Ftilt is a bit slower, but delivers more knockback and damage, it's also more punishable. DB's vertical range isn't as good as the other two but has good knockback/damage and refreshes your other moves. Jab is probably the safest bet in most scenarios."
While I personally think Jab is Marth's Anti-air tool from the ground, I also understand that depending on the situation, my other options might be better (i.e ftilt if they are out of jab range). So don't limit yourself to one option.
After you've decided on how you want to deal with a situation, focus on that aspect for a few matches until you can integrate it into your game without thinking too much.
That's basically how I do it.

Main a character with an attack fast enough to punish.

If a character breaks a grab during a pummel, they are always ground-released.
If you grab a character, and their feet are not touching the ground at all, you have a 100% air-release, without pummels.
If they ARE touching the ground, and they input a jump while mashing, they get air-released, without pummels.
If they ARE touching the ground, and they do not imput a jump command, they get a ground-release.

It is possible.
Hey, so I'm trying to incorporate wavebouncing into my game as a Snake player, mostly with grenades.
I finally got down to practicing tonight, and I can do it. Problem is, every once in a while, I use the side-B instead. Does this ever happen to some of you guys, at a high level? If I give it a little more time, can I expect this to resolve itself?

Yea, just press B and then the direction immediately after. It gets really easy after a little practice.
lol i read this before the responses given and i thought it was a MK main asking how to win hahaha
haha too good, could really think this.

Hey Vyse, could you add this thread to the OP?

It's really a hassle having to look for it manually all the time.

What is the best/most efficient way to test move priorities?
Just remember that on the ground, moves will clash with each other and cancel as long as they are within 10% damage wise. In the air, it becomes whether or not your hitbox hits their hurtbox before their hitbox hits you. I'm not sure about ground vs. aerial though.
So for testing, ground moves that do more damage would have more priority, not counting transcendent hitboxes. In the air, it would boil down to range and speed. Just consider your character's moves, and you should be able to figure who they're going to get outprioritized by most of the time.

You can't. Brawl doesn't really have "priority." There're the rules of clanking, which states that aerials will only clank with specials, ground moves will clank with other ground moves and specials, and that specials can clank with aerials, ground moves, and other specials. Moves that can clank whose hitboxes connect when there's less than 8% difference will clank. If there's a bigger difference, one will plow through the other. Moves that can't clank (IE aerial aerial interaction) will be determined by whose hitbox hits the opponent's hurtbox first, which in some cases means disjoints. Staling is considered when determining percents.
