People really need to stop complaining about moves and unfair characters and just man up. If you can't beat a single move, I'm betting the move isn't broken. I'm betting you're just bad.

That's not really directed at anybody in particular, I'm just kind of mad at the whole Smash/Brawl community for overreacting and complaining about every little thing. Shield drop > Snake's f-tilt. Powershield into dodge > most multi hit moves. Oh yeah, don't forget DI. And if they're spamming the move... decay much? :/

Well, I guess my opinion doesn't matter since I was bad at Melee (infinites) and I'm bad at Brawl (Meta-Knight).
Wobbles is right:

There is no such thing as a broken move or character. It all depends on who you are and how YOU play with that character. All because you cant simply smash down with peach or chain grab space animals with marth to win tournies and take peoples money from every local tourney anyone tries to play in to win. Just get over it and have fun. I love melee and just dont have time to be good at two games. Theres nothing wrong with playing melee, but there are people who also want to play brawl. Bluezaft and Doh, you guys are great friends, but I never new you guys would be this close minded towards brawl. You both are smart, skilled players and im pretty sure you can be even better at brawl if you quit making excuses. I am also trying to throw a tourney somewhere NEW other than the same two places.

I have a tourney on Saturday for anyone who wants to simply play brawl. Texas gamers have also decided to stop throwing Melee tournies due to the overwhelming size of the new brawl community and will be throwing brawl tournies instead. I did not mean to scheldule it on the day of the UTD smash fests, it is my first time throwing one and I will plan it out better next time around. Please post if you think you might come and if you can bring a setup.

Excuses? What excuses? My excuse for not playing Brawl is that I don't enjoy playing it. Brawl is like Wii Sports to me...I mean, it's okay I guess, but I wouldn't want to spend any amount of time at all playing it. You are saying that what makes a game fun is being good at it, which is stupid. I can get perfect scores in Wii Bowling but that doesn't make it fun. I could be the best Brawl player in the world or the worst; the game still doesn't entertain me. I'm disappointed that you would be so close-minded as to think that just because Brawl is new means everyone is required to like it.

And Rob was responding to rOk's cute little post that f-tilt was the only reason Snake is good, which was a dumb thing to say (it IS rOk). Rob is saying that if rOk is getting decimated by a single move he's just playing dumb, he isn't saying that a character can't be broken. Melee did an okay job of preventing a single character from dominating (the jury's still out on Brawl--we're only 2 months into the game, after all), but it's ridiculous to say that no character has an advantage and that the only factor is skill. If you're ever around when Rob is playing a Peach with his Ice Climbers, you will hear alllllll about unfairness in characters. It's not a coincidence that every major tournament in the past month or so has been won either by a Snake or a Metaknight--those characters are just better. And the people who play them are good enough to be familiar with a variety of characters...yet they settled on playing Snake/Metaknight in tournament. There's a reason for that, you know. And there's a reason that any theoretically "good" players playing practically any other character did not win. I don't know if the advantage they have is enough for them to be called "broken" but saying that a "broken" character is fundamentally impossible is just ignorant.

And just to clarify, none of that is the reason I don't play Brawl. The only reason I don't play Brawl is because I don't find it a fun game.

Yeah, it's still on. I'll get around to changing the title one of these minutes.


Relevant post is relevant. </sarcasm>
Anything but irrelevant! Though I must say Melee1 has one of the finest forward-smash-charging Falcons I've ever seen. Did anyone see the double-Falcon teams set with me/Poot versus Reckon/Brave? Dear Haysoos, we landed like 28 forward-smashes each match. We lost the set but it was still a moral victory.

I guess you had to be there to get that one then. <shrug>

I'll probably be there this weekend after the tournament Meeeeleeeeeone is throwing. Then on Sunday there's a tournament in Waco for Brawl if anyone is interested in going with me.

Talk about a weekend full of Smashery @.@

Man, where's all this bad feeling coming from? How about we all just agree that Peach is stupidly unfair against Ice Climbers in Melee, and get on with our lives?

Agreed Wobbles.

OK, I am done arguing about pointless, miniscule details, play the game and have fun. If you dont like to play a game, then dont, but quit griping and whining about it. Just dont play. If you like Brawl, come to my tournament then. Its not like video games are a way of life or anything......

I'm driving down to Waco for a tournament this Sunday if anyone wants to go with me. It's like 1.5 - 2 hours from my house, not all that far. I'll be leaving a little bit early so I can stop in West and get me some of the best kolaches in... well anywhere really.

And now, a special haiku composed by me, dedicated to Bwett's boredom.

Ahem.

Forgotten the number of syllables
but that won't stop me
from writing one, dammit!​


hmmmm, pretty sure it's not 10-5-6. If only some sort of online free encyclopedia existed where I could find out!

Right now I'm in Bay City visiting with family...seriously...I have looked at facebook and smashboards the entire day constantly, getting even the slightest bit excited at the prospect of just one more message. And on that matter, yall need to type more so I have something to read. lol
Go play this, you'll lose hours of your life to it one 10 minute game at a time:

This one is also oddly addictive:

I have a plethora of ways to kill time if you need more dude.

Also, all of you need to see how far you can get with this one. It claims to be the world's hardest game:

Messages have to be at least ten characters long to prevent people from making lots of nonsense messages.

But instead of coming up with actual post-worthy material they get around it by typing "tencharacters" at the bottom (usually smaller and in a darker color). DoH changed that up to tencharizards probably because he claims to play Pokemon Trainer.

In short DoH is just trying to be cute.

C'mon ppl you know you rather go to melee 1's brawl event. The only ppl in the world that wanna play melee is ppl like Bluezaft and DOH who lack the nerve to learn a new game. They wanna play a game they have mastered to rule out any challenges from other melee players that don't know as much as them. Drop melee like a bad habit and pick up brawl you know you will have to sooner or later.

Actually this is the gayest quote "ever in life."
