Updated tester list. If you are on the list plz give feed back to your fellow testers!
Plus its interesting and could be nice to look back at when B+ takes off, knowing you had a part in it puts that warm and fuzzy felling inside your controller >_>.

[/FONT]Good enough for me. And it is the first one, that is what characters everyone tends to test with the codes. I know B+ is changing how some characters work and play completely, but as shown some people like Dark Sonic have a goto character that they feel comfortable with and test combos with or see how whatever new code works for them. Plus the list allows to kinda see where each person is getting their opinions on the feel of the game. Kupo for example could be only playing light and speedy characters and thus have an unintended bias on what values work for jabs.Mechanics as in char-specific ATs? No. I never bothered because VB never seemed worth learning at a higher level. I did, however, play a ton (mainly 1v1, tournament rules) from when Brawl came out as random. I have extensive hours as each character, and know how to play as them at a decent level. It was only about a little over a month ago when I found out about B+ that I started picking characters. Not that most of the characters I listed (for myself), save Diddy and maybe Ness, Lucas, and Yoshi, have very complicated specific techniques or mechanics that I am not so great at (although Yoshi and Ness are two of my best characters so I dunno).
I can easily work out comboes with most characters, and generally know what approaches are good and bad. I'm not an expert at the game or with any one character (Marth is definitley my main, however), but to test B+ stuff at some level (ie is the hitlag too low? etc.) doesn't require super advanced play to realize.
My roommate, on the other hand, definitley isn't as good as me (he can't even shorthop consistently) and doesn't always agree with the goals of the project (ie he likes brawl's stale move system), but he certainly is above average when it comes to the greater smash community.
I assure you, though, that except for Ivysaur and actually ROB I think everyone gets played at least every other playsession, which are a few times a week. So I guess I want to know - are you making a list of what characters are being tested with B+ at all, orwhat characters are being tested by people specifically skilled in that character?
If it's the former, go ahead and pare my list down to Fox, Marth, Kirby, Squirtle, Luigi, Charizard, and Sheik, and my roommates to Lucario, Pit, Zelda, and G&W.
Plus its interesting and could be nice to look back at when B+ takes off, knowing you had a part in it puts that warm and fuzzy felling inside your controller >_>.
