***** TOISE'S SUPER MONEY LEAGUE *****
Posting:
- Post your roster in whatever format you prefer, but please try to keep it simple and easy to read. Images are acceptable (I recommend using Susan's Image Thread), but be aware of individual differences between similar characters (such as Mega Man vs. X; see below). Avoid flashy projects and huge images, get to the point.
- You may write "Everyone from Brawl" in your roster, then list any cut characters. Former Melee characters and all newcomers must be written individually.
- You may edit your roster at any point prior to (but not including) 3:00 AM EST on May 5th, 2012, the exact moment when Japan and Mexico are in perfect alignment. Any posts or edits announced after this point will be ignored. Attempting to edit rosters after the deadline will result in disqualification.
- Rosters must be posted in this thread to become eligible. You may post other people's rosters, including rosters from people who don't have access to this community. Only one roster per person. Rosters may be disqualified at the community's discretion.
- All rosters are considered universal between both platforms. In the event of version-exclusive rosters, both rosters will be merged and the new roster shall be used.
- In the event of major catastrophe, don't worry about video games.
Scoring:
- A "listed" character is a character whom appears on the user's personal roster.
- An "announced" character is an officially playable character.
- For every listed character that is announced, the user gains one point.
- For every listed character that is NOT announced, the user loses two points.
- For every UNLISTED character that is announced, the user loses one point.
- Characters included as part of movesets, stage elements, assist trophies, Pokeballs, Adventure Mode enemies, bosses, etc. will not affect scoring.
- Characters appearing as alternate costumes and palette swaps will not affect scoring.
- The series a character is associated with will not affect scoring.
- Scores will not be finalized until the full roster is determined. Current scores may be kept as soon as the game is officially revealed (as Brawl was during E3 2006).
- Characters listed as downloadable content will be counted as regular characters. Any characters revealed to be downloadable content will not affect scoring.
Individual:
- The following characters will be counted individually, regardless of implementation (this list may be expanded as needed):
Mario, Dr. Mario, Paper Mario, Diddy Kong, Dixie Kong, Samus, Zero Suit Samus, Zelda, Sheik, Toon Zelda, Toon Sheik, Impa, Ganondorf, Ganon, Link, Wolf Link, Fierce Diety Link, Young Link, Toon Link, Pikachu, Pichu, Pokemon Trainer and any variations, Squirtle, Ivysaur, Charizard, any Pokemon accompanied by a Trainer, Mega Man and his countless variations
- The following characters will be counted as a single unit (this list may be expanded as needed):
Ice Climbers, Plusle and Minun, Wolf Link and Midna
- A change in a character's design (as with Zelda, Fox, Marth, etc.) will not affect scoring unless they are a separate character.
- A major change in a character's moveset (as with Ganondorf) will not affect scoring unless they are a separate character.
- Random boxes will not affect scoring.
- The entire Brawl roster, if announced, is worth 40 points.
