Melee Needs Fraud Stamps

[Bones0]

Divekick apparently had stamps at Evo that said "Fraud", and they would stamp players that lost 5 rounds in a row (the game actually announces a "Fraud Detection Warning" after 4 consecutive wins for those not familiar with it). To me, it would be absolutely hilarious to see Smashers walking around with fraud stamps on their bodies from getting 4-stocked in tournament. If you 4-stock someone in your pool or in bracket, simply call over a TO/assistant and watch your opponent get stamped. Stamping the forehead would be optional though...

Personally I wouldn't want to have such a massive label of how **** I am at Melee

It would be better if they got stickers, and then you stuck it to your controller or shirt for the remainder of the tournament.

I see it more as a way of admiring Melee's ridiculous skill gap. Even some of the top 5 in the world have matches where they've been 4-stocked. Maybe think of it as a sort of ritual much like a player's first tournament is. Everyone knows what it was like to go to their first tournament and get annihilated, so being able to look around and realize you're not in bad company seems a like a cool way to accept your relative awfulness at Melee. Plus it just adds so much awesome hype when someone is on the brink of getting 4-stocked even if the match otherwise has no real bearing on the tournament's outcome.

wouldn't being absolutely destroyed in a match be humiliating enough?

I kinda wanna see this happen to a top-level player. You never know. Maybe they're just having a bad day. XD That's where the term "fraud" holds most of its meaning to me. lol

Humiliating? I'll show you humiliating!

Well, I had to play M2K in my first tourney ever this weekend. I only got 4 stocked once. Would he need to 4 stick me twice or just once?

If he 4-stocks you twice, you get 2 stamps.

I would be okay with this. I would make a sticker album of my tournaments I went to :V

Seeing as how I'm not a competitive Melee player, (or at least not yet) I'd be OK with this.

I support this! That´s freakin´ hilarious.

Mew2King would have to start just carrying around his own stamp and ink pad with the number he'd dish out
