Chaddd

Granted, being able to win without using an overpowering technique (wobbling) would indeed mean I had a better grasp of the character's other techniques than being able to win using that technique. But why would anyone limit his options like that? If I can abuse an overpowering technique to make my character more effective, then I'd be an idiot not to do so. But I guess this is where we diverge philosophically.

I don't just play ICs and I don't just wobble. Some games I don't get a single grab, and I win them anyway. Some games I get two wobbles and I lose.

I'm not good with every character but I'm just as good with several characters as I am with ICs. I'll probably be going mostly Fox at this tourney, which I was planning to do anyway...because believe it or not, despite my dishonorable, overpowering, broken, homosexual tactics, I still have lots of trouble with certain ICs matchups, like Peach and Marth. If you have the opinion that wobbling is some automatic win button then this is probably inconceivable. Maybe I'm just that terrible--who knows.

And stop yelling at me in those big scary letters. It hurts my feelings. :cry:

Shai! let's drop this discussion. Seriously. It will lead to unfavorable first impressions, and it might have already. Get stoked for Get Four Stocked.

I must have the last word!

It's just my habit to respond to people.....and typically there have been four or five people replying to everything I say, so it seems like I'm egging on the discussion when I'm really just defending myself. But fine, whatever. I officially don't care anymore.

If anyone would form a negative impression of someone because they play a certain character in a video game, well...that's pretty judgmental and unfair and I hope that hasn't happened here.

No, it's just the way you defended yourself and seemingly attacked Chaddd and whatnot which would lead to a potentially negative impression, as well as the fact that you seemingly egged on the discussion, despite many of us posting asking for an end (although other people continued it too).

But really. Let's not develop Halotitudes. Keep it friendly.

Not that he really needs defending, but I haven't seen Shai attack anyone really. All the posts I've seen by him have been well thought out and in no way offensive. I realize that this isn't the appropriate thread to discuss wobbling, but try getting a decent discussion going on it in the right spot and you'll have tons of nubs posting nonsense.

I personally think it's an interesting discussion and haven't really sensed any hostility from any parties (although KO's punch is a bit scary :)). I don't see why people would get a negative impression about Shai simply because he has made valid points about wobbling and other ICs tactics.

As for the wobbling, would I personally want it banned? Probably, just because I hate that feeling when I realize I've made a mistake to let it happen. I think this is really important to point out - most (90% maybe) of the times I get wobbled, it's because I did something stupid (spaced wrongly, did a laggy attack when the ICs were in good position, etc.) to get caught by it. However, I don't think it should be banned simply for the reason that it makes me feel bad.

Another thing - who cares if it's an infinite? The ultimate result is a loss of a stock from 20% or so (you should be able to break out before then in most cases). It has the same net result as getting shine spiked by fox at 20% or rested by Jiggs at 20%. Obviously, people will say that it takes skill/work to get the early shine spike or land that rest at a crucial moment. Well guess what, it takes skill/work to land a grab with both ICs in decent position - this is what makes wobbling legitimate. Obviously, it's not hard to hold the control stick and tap A at a certain tempo...getting that grab with both ICs near enough to start the wobbling is the hard part.

Wow talk about owning myself LMAO. I didn't read the manual, I jumped straight into the game and proceeded to enjoy it.

Anyways. We just got out of an hour long AIM chat, and the decision is final. Wobbling is banned. No ifs ands or buts about it. Just use the other infinites the ICs have. If you don't know them, you can check the Character Specific for Ice Climbers and find it there via one of their guides, or simply, post a topic and ask.

Anyone planning on attending Alpha's Forest Temple Smash (mainly those of you who are receiving housing) need to make sure you get directions there! Believe me, you do NOT want to tackle that neighborhood without the proper directions. Get them from him, cause I won't be able to direct you since I have my own memorized way to get to his house.

Might I also point out, you can arrive at the venue as early as 10 AM, any earlier and you'll be waiting outside... alone... without me or Mike or Alpha lol. Cause the managers don't open early, they open when they feel like it rofl.

I love wobbling blah blah
this post was really long, i'm not gonna lie, I didn't read the entire thing. my internet has been out for like 2 days and i just read the last 4 pages of the same **** over and over and over, you guys cry wayyyyy to ****ing much, in the time you all spent arguing about this, you could have went out, got some beef, grilled burgers, and got better at smash. Instead, you opted for arguing about a ****ty infinite that isn't going to mean **** in 4 months anyway. You want a tournament where its legal? hold a tournament. I won't go.

Laijin if i go ... witch is at like 50/50 right now.. i will deffentntly NOT mm u... not scared or anything.. i juss got like 0 money. im supa broke right now...

I'm not sure if you were referring to my post or not, but you did quote me before posting this. If you had read my 4 small paragraphs, you would have seen that I don't like wobbling. Sorry if you felt that I was "crying" about wobbling being banned, but I have no clue how you got that from my post (other than the fact that you didn't read it).

<3 NES n00b's last couple of posts! Weiners FTW!

KO - I hope you didn't take my comment the wrong way. I meant it completely in jest. You're a cool dude.

P.S. I wish I could come to G4S4.

In the latest news: Everyone should go play Melty Blood.. Psst...Or play Guilty Gear its basically the same thing, but you didn't hear it from me ;))

WOOT 3 days left b/c today no longer counts :)
btw, if anyone wants to play either one of these games (Guilty Gear's my preference) at G4S4, i will be happy to play. One thing I've always hated about the Smash community...they only play smash for the most part... :(

Tourney in 3 days. Huzzah and all that

Wait.... is Alpha's house the forest temple or the lost woods. It's make a big difference seeing as how Alpha could potentially be phantom Ganon or the skull kid. :) I vote for Ph. Ganon b/c he strikes fear in me. Hardest boss IMO <3 Alpha

BRAWL UPDATE: Wow this trainer character looks like ......... I don't want to sound pessimistic, but if Brawl is even mildly competitive with this trainer character, it will be a pure miracle. ( Mega balance issues :ohwell:) One good this is Charizard has teh Fire!!!!!

(GAPeach & Jx) Guilty Gear sounds really good. :) I hope you can teach me how to play a better Slayer b/c I love using him, but I feel he could be alot better.

I just realized that I'm able to go to this tournament, but I haven't really been keeping up with this thread and I'm not really in the mood to browse through 37 pages of what is most likely 90% bull**** and 10% real tournament talk. So, long story short, I'm looking for a teammate and I don't know who's taken or not. I'm looking for someone pretty good because I want to have a chance at winning. Also, is there going to be another GA vs OOS crew battle? Give me the info and give me a teammate (a good one, preferably in the top 10 of some state)

All of GA's top 10 have been called, so you'll need an OOS player ^.^

As far as crew battles go, we havn't made a final decision, but we'll get back to you on that.

awesome. always good to see someone wanting to play other stuff, especially GGXX. unfortunately, i don't know that much with Slayer... i mostly play Anji, Sol, HOS, Jam, Chipp, and Ky. In that skill order, as well.

I thought we were running with Wes's idea about the top 10 teams having a draft crew battle.

Because umm, I dont know if anyone cares, but i live both in and out of Georgia. Everytime we have a GA vs. OOS crew battle, my heart breaks in two. :(

To elaborate on that, the neighborhood is the Lost Woods lol. Now that that is cleared up, I had nearly forgotten that we DID agree on Wes' idea for the crew battle. My bad. Thanks for clearing that up.

I don't know why people were arguing. Wobbling is gay. Anyone who denies that doesn't like PSO and that's not cool with me.
