Arby is my eternal rival and friend. We have come to a conclusion on our theme:




BunBun - Red
Arby - Green



VTS - Blue
IHSB - Yellow (lol)

OH OH can I be white, so I can make jokes like why can iori see though cinnamon toast cruch?


@buns about the rankings, who is going to challenge me honestly? Just for fun put me at the bottem and see what will happen.

I dunno if you can be white, because she's not in any of the group pictures I have.


I put you as emerald, because you don't have a main and use whatever character you feel like, just like emerald has no pokemon and just uses whoever he wants to win.

Also, good idea. You can be like the boss checking in on everyone as you repeatedly go through the PRs

We did Challenge Matches when we did Mid-South Power Rankings. Just thought they were kinda dumb lol. I don't actually remember being challenged though. xD
I agree with him. When I was on the power rankings back when, I couldn't play friendlies because my time was taken up with a billion challenge matches. I ended up forfeiting them later so I could play other Smashers.

Joot - And dont worry. Nite will be at FAP. Whether he likes it or not.

Should we just have the top place be able to challenge anyone or something? That way the rankings will stay accurate and won't require as much updating.

The only way to have decently drama-less PRs is with a ranking system. At most, a challenge will be 7 matches. That's like half an hour. No johns.



Sorry if you guys think they're dumb.

If we're gonna have these challenge matches that must be accepted, I have to ask one thing. Am I allowed to say "**** your challenge match and let's money match!"? Do they have to accept that?

Since so many people are *****ing about challenge matches, I'm debating the idea of two separate lists. One real PR list based on tournament results, and one list of challenges that seeds those tournaments.

I just don't think they are going to work out in the long run. 4/7? It's gonna take forever at a tournament if a lot of people try to do challenge matches. We just won't have enough TVs/Time for that in my opinion. But really, it's up to you guys if you want to do challenge matches. I personally don't think challenge matches are needed for a drama free power ranking.

Anyway, challenge match me, I'll forfeit then place higher than you in tournament. Hahaha.

I think if you really didn't want to do it most players would be understanding enough to allow you to play friendlies or do whatever. I would bet people would allow a change in the number of matches if both players agree.

It's been working perfectly at Purdue for the past year.
That's cool. I'm just saying, we've tried this before. It didn't really work out and we ended up going by tournament results. I definitely feel that the sets should be no bigger than 3/5. I mean, we don't even do 4/7 for grand finals which determines more than a challenge match anyway.

I'm down for whatever other than 4/7 challenge matches. xD But we have to start having gatherings and stuff so this stuff can take place.

Hey Bun, if you could add Peach in front Falco next to my name that would be very appreciated.

I thought laggy TV's invalidated challenge matches?
The match happened at my place after we left power play.

Off topic, I want to play your Peach and get some tips.

Edit. Apologize for double posting

Derp try reading posts before you comment.

We bring our own stuff to Power Play now.

Sorry my man but i'm a REAL nigga.

Everyone knows REAL niggas don't follow instructions.

I might come to the next powerplay tournament if I think there's going to be a decent turnout. The only thing stopping me from going out to cordova is gas money.

If anyone else has a get together before that let me know and i'll show up.


the rest of the thread said:
Challenge matches are dumb
I'm not too worried about the actual rankings themselves but there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with another excuse to play more matches with people.

....especially you nite....

BunBun- Forgot about PowerPlay lol.

Ambix- True. Anybody who wants to play though, just ask. xD

Shaka- Good ish man. Haven't played you yet, but I met you at Jack's. I wanna play you and your crew. I think I've only play R&B so far.

@nite dude powerplay is being more than generous to allow us to use their venue. In retrospect I don't recall any tourney being hosted by you, and buns is also working towards building up pr(power rankings) and casual gameplay.

:ohwell: What are you doing?

o.o All I said was I forgot about PowerPlay...

Ya know, meaning that I didn't remember that they hold gatherings. Did I say anything bad about them?

What are you doing?

I love you too.

Anyways, all drama aside, do the power rankings however you want to. I only have input about challenge matches. I think they should be 3/5. That is all.

That's not really how Power Rankings work...haha. It's just a ranking, it's not really like Mortal Kombat where you have to beat everyone one after another.

Yea man I'd love to play you sometime soon! I think the next smash-get-together is at powerplay this wednesday, do you think you can make it?

I'll see if Zulu, Lupin, and R&B will come, our crew is trying to get better haha, and the best way is definitely playing better players. we play each other waaaay too much.
