Which is stupid, because the DC has uses outside the IDC & edgeguarding. Also D.*.*.* has been banned as of Mic_128's post on the previous page. No sense in getting warned for not knowing.

Edit: Page 12, my mistake -.-

Infinite Dimensional Cape sounds like it should be the proper term for the maneuver, but calling it "Ghosting" casually, as a slang term seems more appropriate rather than saying "Oh look, he's IDC-ing!" or, "Oh look, he's infinite dimensional caping!"

Thus, I vote for... Ghosting.

None of your business
You guys should use the first letter of each word in the phrase Metaknights Infinite Dimensional Special.
This makes it Mids, which is also a kind of pasta sauce that is very good.
so, a quick little word, just say Mids, that should be it's name guys, it is easy, sounds catchy.
"Don't use the mids on me man!"
"Shut up crybaby!"

Whatever you choose to call it, D.I.C.K. is no longer an option. Anyone using the abbreviation will be hit with censor dodging/innapropriate language. If there is continued use of it, the phrase will be added to the censored word-bank, and be auto-warned.

To reiterate: Any futher use of D.I.C.K after this post WILL be warned, throughout the forums.
Idc... Sensor meh on the boards... I'll still call it whateva I want to IRL...

And thus being-older-than-13 wins. Seriously, TWENTY votes before banning? Oh, the Smash boards....

Well, I see some solutions:

1) Name it Ghosting. A lot more mature than... Our previous option. -.-;
2) Some tournies aren't that keen on glitches. So, they could unknowingly allow it.
3) IF the Meta Knight community could figure out a reasonable limit to Ghosting, tournies could allow it, just like they allow a small amount of shine stalling.

I secondary Meta Knight, don't hurt me.

Because forums don't work that way!

Forums go for screwed up democracy and immature abbreviations.

I don't see the need to give this a name when it pretty much already has one. Dimensional Cape + infinite = Infinite Cape.

Words like "sex kick" and "wavedashing" make sense because they describe a certain property of a move (i.g. a sex kick is always the neutral air, but not all the neutral airs are sex kicks) or a sequence of moves. Even "shine" makes sense since wavedashing + Reflector doesn't sound too good.

Rising Pound stalling, Wall Bombing stalling... wouldn't Cape stalling fit right in?

I like ghosting, too becuase it accurately decribes what he does (like most other techniques). Ghosts move around for as long as they want while invisible/invincible and can even attack you out of it (just like MK does).

I think we need to find a way to hit MK out of it. If we do let's call it exorcising (sp?)

I just call it incredibly gay.

But ghosting is pretty cool too. The other names don't sound as badass.

Why did this get bumped? "The IDC" or "MK's Infinite Cape" or "Ghosting" is fine.

Plus, it's banned, so who really cares.
