Oh boy introductions, the bane of the socially awkward, but with keyboard before me I shall strive to create a lasting impression with skill and elegance!
... or I could just answer the suggested questions and not make a fool of myself.
- Who do you main in your Smash game(s) of choice? Why?
Alas I missed out on the experience of the original game for the 64, but I can tell you from then onward! Melee I play either young link, because he was the first character I ever really played a lot, but I was never really very good with him, as I was but a young child at the time. I now play with Roy mostly because I think he's an awesome character, even if I'm not very good with him either. Moving onto Brawl was when I really started trying to play well, usually rolling Toon Link as my main character due to Young Link's replacement and a love of Wind Waker. I also picked up Falco at that time, because well, he had the little kicky shield thing that I thought was really cool at the time. So maybe I don't always pick my characters practically, what of it? I never really got into Project M, but with Smash 4 around now, I quickly switched over to Robin, always having loved the magic users in fire emblem games. (My avatar is actually a custom drawn picture of my main character from fire emblem Awakening). I also play Sheik a lot but I'd hardly consider my play with her high quality yet.
- Why have you joined Smashboards? How did you hear about the site?
Well I heard about it from a lot of places, but I suppose what encouraged me to actually check it out was when I went to PAX Prime 2014 and I got to hear about the competitive smash scene during a speech thing. I forget the technical terms those scheduled events went by. I already knew quite a bit about the scene, but I finally decided at that time that I wanted to be a part of it.
- Do you attend tournaments? Do you want to?
Actually I've hosted a couple tournaments, obviously local ones, and not very big ones at that. Well, one had 72 people, but I mean not very big as in not really a big deal or anything, with no affiliation to anything related to the smash scene beyond being a tournament for Brawl. I want to actually get involved as I player of smash bros in more public tournaments.
- Talk about your interests outside of Smash Bros.! Anime, sports, other games, etc.
Well I suppose I play a lot of Games, from quite a wealth of genera's, but I don't think it's too necessary for me to go into to much details on that during this post. Outside of the gaming world I rather enjoy writing and Scuba diving, those being my two notable activities I think. Again I'm not quite sure how much detail to go into so I'll leave it there unless anyone expresses interest.
- What other communities are you a part of? Clubs at school, other forums?
Well I run a Super Smash bros club at my school, but it really isn't very well known due to my schools aversion to video game related to activities, They nearly banned the club from even being created without providing any reason other than "it wouldn't bring anything beneficial to the school environment." With a well worded essay however I was able to convince them otherwise, though they still seem to sabotage any attempts to make it more well known or establish in school tournaments, and I fear with me leaving high school this year the underclassmen may not be devoted enough to continue it, and it shall die with me. A true shame in my eyes.
- What's this? You're not done yet? Everyone must be board to death already from how much you typed.
Yes, it is true! I added more on than just the questions, but only to make it known that I hope to find many friends among this forum. I shall strive to be outgoing, that is true, as well as actively seek out people to get to know and play Smash with, but I do encourage people to reach out to me as well. I consider myself to be rather open and friendly, and I issue the greatest hope that anyone willing to talk to me or get to know me better does not hesitate to send me a message.
And lastly, I thank you all for the time you have given me, and wish you all a wonderful day.
