Luigi Board Index (all "stickied" threads in here)

[elheber]

Luigi Board Index​

Short Intro: The Luigi Boards was streamlined by removing all but one thread from being stickied, and the only one that is stickied would contain links to all the rest. This is that thread, and in here you will find all threads that deserve to be stickied.

Searching: You can use your browser's intra page search function (Ctrl+F) to search for keywords (tags) for anything you're looking for in this post. If searching for two-word keywords such as "off topic" then try searching for one of the words individually as in "topic". If searching for unusually small keywords such as "AT", use spaces either before and/or after as in " AT ".

Lastly: You can (and should) post to suggest new threads for the index or for any addition, suggestion, or correction. If I go inactive for unusually long and this index is no longer relative, feel free to create a new one and use this info.

Luigi Buffering Applications by ALiAsVee
An in-depth AT strategy guide for Luigi's "Luigi Buffering" advanced techniqe (now known as AD Buffering). It's more a strategy guide on how to use it than it is an AT guide on how to perform it or how it works, but the metagame in it is relevant today.

18-August-2009: Added "Honing In" by Delvro.
27-August-2009: Updated intro.
27-September-2009: Added the Official Luigi Match-Up Thread by DTP. It looks promising.

 

[ALiAsVee]

It looks fine to replace, though you can make this thread speak out and read to you and newcomers still probably won't use it. No offense to you, I like your tags, that's a good bit. Color Contrast and condensed, I'd have a mod replace my ToC for this, since mine has worn out.

Did you pull all of the threads from my ToC? I went back and marked inactive threads and erased irrelevant threads. The information is legit except I didn't add the Koga's glide toss guide.

 

[hippiedude92]

Don't we have ToC sticky? lol.

*4am, lazy and tired to read any of the op atm >.>

 

[kigbariom]

Where is Atash? I hope he comes back.

I know it's new, but may I suggest a few things Elheber?

It's a little clustered, because we want people to use, it, I think another space between the lines would be nice. Also to make it inviting, add some pictures here and there and make a fancy font title.

Hmm?

 

[WIGI]

and use font colours that don't make my eyes bleed. =]

 

[elheber]

There's a couple things on this LBI that isn't in the ToC, ALiAs.

Yeah, hippster, we got the ToC but I got tired of waiting for ALiAs to update/improve it. I thought he had left.

I'm gonna add pictures and whatnot when I get the chance; definetly good advice. As for spaces, I'll look for other ways of keeping it organized without making the OP unnecessarily long (which is why the intro of the OP is so small). Like WIGI's advice. Good stuff. And of course you can give suggestions... it's encouraged in the OP.

 

[kigbariom]

That's a good plan you have laid out so far. If you need help, I'm here. Also I think this softer green is nicer, it's easier on the eyes.

 

[hippiedude92]

This is why you get AIM Elh. lol.

He lurks don't worry about it. But heh it's k.

 

[kigbariom]

Why do you people use AIM, I thought that was for old people. Come on and just use MSN.

Also, tell ALiAs to come back. He's a good man.

EDIT: Oh, wait, he lurks, so he can read this. ^^^

 

[hippiedude92]

idk why MSN is really on the move on popularity now, lol, kinda getting annoying for me =x.

so this gonna get stickied/?

Heck no! That uber approaching guide is getting added right now. Thanks Delv.

 

[ALiAsVee]

My bit on updating is that I lose enthusiasm when people ask questions on things they can find on the ToC. Readability is fine if people read it >_> . With New mains coming in and going, I lose motivation and move on to different topics, like shield bouncing with Luigi.

I lurk cause I got nothing to say xD, Hippie knows I'm alive, and Zhao. Just hit me up on aim or something, aliasvotescu < ---- . I'm on almost all the time.

 

[Delvro]

'Preciated. Updates will come with suggestions... I exist like Alias but I don't talk much

 

[kigbariom]

If we want to just exchange to sticky with the ToC, then someone PM a mod.

 

[elheber]

Who's a mod? I don't know them well enough. Some guy named Wizzard or similar?

 

[hippiedude92]

go to wario boards and look for PhantomX he's our mod and Warios mod.

oh tell him hippie wanna learn wario lols

 

[kigbariom]

You can PM any mod, I'll let you do it since it's your thread. But, I asked Samurai Panda and he did it nice and fast. And then I asked Youko the second time, he never responded.
You know he saw, it, he just chose to not see it.

 

[PhantomX]

So Alias is fine with swapping this out then?

 

[elheber]

He said so. It's on this page.

Thank you Wizzard.

Where Have You Been??????

 

[crewster]

Boarding. nuff sed

 

[TheMike]

The OP says that all threads that deserve a sticky are listed. But seriously, just some of those really need to be stickied IMO. I would rather have the Q&A, Matchup, Video Threads and a Guide stickied than only this one, that can be used as a Directory the way other boards use(listing useful threads that aren't stickied, such as the one talking about Jab1's follow ups).

Edit: PX explained me somethings, please disconsider what's written above. :]

 

[Aqua S.G.]

like honestly these are some great tips. you should keep this going....

 

[Locuan]

This might be weird but I just re-edited my guide. Fixed some grammatical errors and erroneous information. Should be up to date now.

*decides to post in old thread*

lol might as well revive it then....

 

[Locuan]

Well it is the index of the topics covered in the Luigi boards. And where the guides are located. I wont say anything else because I might portray the wrong idea.

Aww man that sucks lol. I got to meet hippiedude around two years ago in New York. But that was one of the last tournaments I competed in. Regardless, hope you like what I did. It wasn't anything revolutionary. Just fixing some stuff here and there.
