Money Matches: An introduction

[MikeHaggarTHAKJB]

I think putting money on smash is stupid (or any type of gambling is stupid, really), so I don't play MM's.
If people want to "prove" to themselves, the person they're playing with and people around them that the set they're playing is serious, money shouldn't be necessary imo.

Some people sandbag all the time unless it's a money match or a tourny match. I try riskier **** when there's nothing on the line, but in tourny matches and MMs I stick to techs that I know I can do and play gayer.

4 below is ********

20 below is a joke

20-50 is nominal

50+ is serious

Thousands? That's taking it too far IMHO.

Money Matches seem extremely popular in SSBM. Essentially, playing a Money Match is Gambling.

its not gambling all the time. sometimes the outcome isn't uncertain.


and the money may or may not be important depending on your current wealth, but sometimes the taking of the money is really whats important.

cant you decline a money match because you dont want to play for money?

If you don't want to play for money why are you in a tournament? If you don't enter/plan on entering tournaments why are you on a competitive video game board? If you aren't on a competitive video game board...

lol, take it a step further and do retirement savings matches.
if you lose, there's always welfare.

 

[Da Shuffla]

On a serious note, I don't play for money. Because people will make any excuse if there is money involved. If I did do a mm, it would only be for like $5.

Pretty funny that the guy that resurrected the thread was laughing about some 2 year old thread.

This is how real men play a MM. This also needs to be in the first post due to sheer epic win.
