@BrimeZ Ggs! Lol it kept going like dis: I won one the you one won and kept on going lol! Ggs tho!!!!!

@ Elessar We need a third party to play. Lag doe

So let them make their snide comments, it'll make it all the more satisfying to crush their nuts under your boot heel at a tournament if they're down talking your main all day. Our skin is thick, we're used to it. They have yet to learn.

Dat sig! O_o

@ Elessar We need a third party to play. Lag doe.

What do you mean by third party? And I did warn you about the lag.

I smell fresh blood. Welcome to the Link Boards, my name is ShinTwist ScreamPaste, but you can call me Uncle Shin.

Stay out of my shed.

Link is REALLY biased against, especially from commentators. I'm sure we all know that. He's been known for being among the worst characters in a Smash game, and now he can bring his A game. Noone wants to give him a chance, though,and its sad. Wait, wrong word: it's INFURIATING.

^This, big time. Link is (at least in Brawl) THE hardest character to use properly. People play bad Links and think 'hey Link looses to ZSS or Diddy -4', 'Link can't do anything vs Jiggz', blah, blah, tier w****, ignorance. Then good Links do work like Mr.R
http://smashboards.com/threads/le-lazy-lurking-links-listen-laugh-lounge-♪-。.254551/page-165#post-16295413
or LordXavior PR ranking 2nd in RI using all Link. Or the old Tourney results thread we had on AiB
http://nintendodojo.com/forum/topic.aspx?id=118766
and people still treat Link players like trash.

 

[Elessar]

It's the effect of the vocal minority. Plus, people give more respect to the player than the chat, so Link is always seen as an encumbrance of a good player than an asset.

hey guys!!! :D
sorry i haven't been around recently, i've been seriously busy doing my dissertation.
i'm sure you'll all be happy to know that the practical side of it is complete and i just need as many people as possible to do my survey

i don't mean to spam anything, in fact if there is a specific thread to post data collection pleads like this, that would be perfect
however if anybody has a bit of spare time and wants to help me out, i would be very thankful!
everything is explained in the link and it should take no more than 20 minutes to complete :D

And here I was just starting to think that you went MIA. I might be willing to fill out a survey if I finish procrastinating.

Ungh, why did you have to include so many numbers in there. My brain capabilities are seriously diminished when numbers show up. Give me a good logical problem with words (NOT LETTERS...I'm looking at you algebra) any day. But numbers? They're thought scramblers for me.

 

[Lúcio]

Newcastle, eh? Sure, I'll fill it in tomorrow.

can't decide if you think newcastle is good or bad... -_-
thanks man - you have until january anyway; i'm just greateful to each and every person who does because it's the most important project of my life

And who the hell are you?

oh man that was cold...
touche though

i would never :O
although i must admit i've been feeling a little out of the loop since the wii u version came out
add that to the fact that i've been playing my guilty pleasure of the new pokemon game...

sorry, i'm a very mathematical psychologist - it's pretty odd that i'm good at both a subjective, essay-based discipline but also an objective one too :/

well numeracy is a critical aspect of individual differences - i HAD to test it, sorry

 

[Naroghin]

I took the survey; interesting stuff. You'll have to let us know how the defense goes when it comes to that! Hopefully it will be sooner rather than later.

I hope to be completing my own dissertation someday, though not in psychology.

You didn't mention that pokemon was involved. You should've led with that. I forgive you.

thanks man - i was worried people would find it boring since those personality questions are frustratingly tedious.
however i tried to vary it a little - each block is very different so it hopefully provided a refreshing change.

dissertations are good for your grade if you're organised with your free time - they're normally worth 1/3 or 1/2 of the entire grade for the final year so it's something you can't afford to mess up though.

Somebody pointed out that the new Zelda game has an uncanny resemblance to the original art work from LoZ on NES.

Interesting; what is the educational context of this, may I ask? I meant a dissertation in the context of a doctoral degree, but by your words I am inferring something more general. I had a chance to do something similar when I was completing my bachelor's in Music Theory and Composition and they just called it an "independent study" or something along those lines. Also, instead of a study/survey accompanying the report it would have been a large-scale musical composition demonstrating whatever techniques/ideas I was trying to employ to a certain purpose followed by monitored rehearsals with the group best representing its orchestration and, finally, a performance and verbal presentation of the same at a major concert.

Edit: But no, I didn't think it was boring. Everything seemed varied nicely though I think some of the questions came up twice.

 

[Zane the pure]

I vote this for OP on our rules thread

 

[The Merc]

Hi guys. Yes I'm still alive. Just been holidaying and haven't been near anywhere with wifi. Lets see how people responded to my question...

*See most people think Young Link should come to SSB4*



Aw, you guys are awesom-

*See that everyone here still hate toon Link and further more hate Spirit Tracks*

But Spirit Tracks was fun and adorable! Though to be fair, ST and Smash Toon Link (and to an extent WW Link) and different Link's.

Also what is the Zelda hype? New news about Majora's Mask? Or Zelda Wii U ?!

 

[Rizen]

Toon Link looks like something Charles M. Schulz would draw during a schizophrenic episode.

...Or a really low quality anime.

Also what is the Zelda hype? New news about Majora's Mask? Or Zelda Wii U ?!

Yea people do read the thread titles

well this as a dissertation is merely the third year "project" for my BSc, nothing as high as an MA or PhD yet :L

wow, that sound pretty interesting; obviously you must've done well! :D

i'm glad, i tried to keep it fresh since university students in particular know how tedious questionnaires can be.
and yes, i believe in the personality block, one or two questions were repeated/rephased.
don't worry, that was entirely intentional - it's interesting to see if people's answer to a question differs even if it is essentially asking the same thing only a few minutes later.

 

[Lúcio]

btw guys, do you think many people would mind if i went round some of the various character threads and asked for people to do my survey?
or do you think this isn't the place to do so?

i respect how on the whole things generally stay on topic in this forum so i'd hate to disrupt it by "spamming" my survey. :/

Yet you didn't mind them enough to not double post, did you? Come one man, you're preparing for a dissertation, that means you're supposedly smart. How hard is it to edit instead of double posting? Apparently getting a degree in physiology and preparing a dissertation is simpler than pressing freaking edit.

ooooh, sassy! :O

nah, i put it in a different post on purpose
mainly because i wanted people to read it and give me advice.
people will see an academic conversation between me and Naroghin and many may skip over the whole post since it may not be of interest or relevance to them :D

that's psychology for you

He Ftilt on your shield. You tried to shield grab him, but he hit you out of it.
The only logical explanation for this is that he did another Ftilt which hit you on the same frame you grabbed him. I believe something similar to this happened to me too, but I don't remember which match(es) it was that I uploaded.

It was a jab. You can see it if you go frame by frame.

 

[Elessar]

It was a jab. You can see it if you go frame by frame.

So, a jab that didn't get to come out due to the grab, but the hitbox still came out anyways? Could be, but it's damn strange because the hit happens behind me, while he was already in the grab stance.

 

[Dumbfire]

That happens occasionally. Very annoying.

[Ryu_Ken]

So I've searched around the Link boards for "tl;dr" and I've figured out what it means (hooray for context clues). Is it supposed to be implied/understood around Link mains? Sounds like an old term from the Brawl boards.

In other words, what's the history behind it?

too long; didn't read tl;dr
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=tl;dr

 

[Vonzar the Soulrender]

It's an extremely commonly used term on these internets in general. It means "Too Long; Didn't read", If posted by a replier, it means you need to trim the fat on your huge wall of text. If posted by the OP it means "this is a short summary if you're a lazy **** who can't be bothered to read my whole post".

Do we really have to add "Google is your friend (when it isn't spying on you)" to "read the stickies"?

Although, there was one amusing suggestion made about the definition of tl;dr.

Jin Zhao: "Too Link; Didn't Recover"

I may adopt this.

Essentially it's just a dumb reply to a generally insightful and quality comment.
Still gets more appreciation.....because internet.
