@Star: mind waiting until I can hook you up with a nice looking template to use? Or are you rather just going to start discussion?
I'm going to begin discussion and start an outlet at IGN where I can use to attract an audience. Since IGN is more lax in their allowances it is the best place to go next.

But yes, before I begin linking to my site I'd like a more professional interface.

The only goal for any alliance is to gain enough support mostly in the Japanese community to ensure votes for their particular character in the case of a poll.

"Do you want X for Sm4sh? If not, here's why you should. Does X have your vote? Here is how to vote for X. Would you like to be reminded when the poll comes out?"

Every pitch should be something along those lines. Except, y'know, with more smooth talking.
My groups has an opportunity to do that. If there were a way for me to at least get my blog onto a Japanese Smash board for them to look at. It could do a great deal. Obviously most of them won't understand the words, but the pictures can speak for themselves. That is why I need to make them as self-explanatory as possible.

What board you thinking of going to? I'll warn you right now, the Smash board at IGN is full of cynics and trolls.

Checked Nsider again (for more examples of cynical responses)... and now one assumes I have never played Panel De Pon, and thinks I'm not even knowing who or what am I talking about.
Yet, I'm one of the most hugest fan of Puzzle League-series. (-l_L-);
Also, they assume that saying Lip had a fairly recent game in 2007 is like saying there was a new Yoshi or PKMN game, so it should be said that Puzzle League had a new game in 2007, and Lip had nothing to do with it. (lol, (way to go making fun of her obscureness more).

Wow, Nsider's quite a waste of time. (-l-L-);

SPREAD THE WORD.
PAPER MARIO FOR SM4SH.

And other people too but Paper Mario is the best. Excuse my fanboyishness/obsession. ♥

Star's really trying to hit it. Should I try it too... (-l-l-) I might though get more cynical responses.

(-=-0-);
All together I want to have.

Smashboards
Nsider
Gamefaqs/Gamespot
IGN
AllIsBrawl
4chan

If I can find a way to access 2chan and the Japanese Smash board I'll go there too.

But in order to appeal to ANYONE I need to make my ideas as polished as they can be. Which mean's revisions.

I've been shut down for "advertising" other prohects on that site before. The thing is, it was a blog that failed here, so I took it over there where it was actually responded too well, and people were actually excited to participate. But as soon as someone said the word "advertisement" and ended the sentence with a "?" bam. It was shut down.

Nsider could be a key place for our alliance, BUUUUUT, we clearly need to tread carefull there.
Which is luckily what I'm managing to be able to do at the moment.

Hmm, so pretty much, no "advertising" means. Sounds quite we better be careful and think well how to pull our campaigns off and find more participants without getting shut down at the process.

Though, I've also noticed Star has pulled it off somehow successfully. (-ö,ö-) ?
Quite interesting indeed.

Right right. Which specific IGN board? It has dozens.

I suspect the most appropriate place would be the Smash board. But agian, people there aren't famous for being friendly.

You might get by posting it at the Wii Lobby board. Maybe. But it might get moved to the Smash board anyway.

Something I've been thinking about is how to make comics that address Ridley's issues in a humorous way, without text. Short ones at that. Something silly that people would want to spread around.

...Maybe some Japanesey sound effects would be necessary though.

OF COURSE, I'M PROBABLY NOT MOTIVATED ENOUGH TO DO THAT.

Star you can also hit BrawlFriendCodes and Brawl Domain, other lesser known Smash forums.

I'll give it my all to access the Japanese Smash Community but it's hard. There's no "web mobile email" Japan offers. I'll just need to find someone I know who is willing to help me.

That or I can get a Japanese phone. xD Not gonna happen, the Dojo will be up by then.

Agreed. I think if you want some support, we need to go into this with a clear head, and a straight forward goal.

I'm going to write up a small thing on "How to vote for Deoxys on the SSB4 poll" Does anyone want the template?

I figure, we tell them "Hey, we'll put the link up for you to vote for him when the time comes", that way we become one of the major sources on that website to the poll, and hopefully we pick up sometakers that way.

What about something like the "You must be this tall to ride", but of course, Ridley it too tall. Maybe have Sakurai there with a Stink face on? Not letting Ridley pass.

Probably the Smash Boards. But if it is really that bad I can always begin in the Wii Lobby and go from there? Even if it gets moved it will at least hook some people that might other wise visit the Smashboards. Then once moved it will attract the Smash crowd. It's actually a better plan to do it that way.

Please, share. I still have Iblis' Japanes vote translation for Slime and Chocobo:
スライマとチョコボ! よつい タグ チム で スマス!

Whatever you're able to do. It will help. :)

Okay. I need to jump in the shower, so when I get out I'll start writing up that template. Shouldn't be hard at all to explain "You go to this site. Copy and paste this group of symbols, and then you can come back and I'll give you a high five!"

The moderator at the Wii Lobby is Lost_In_Translation, who is a nice guy. If you mention my name and that I recommended the Wii Lobby rather than the Smash board, he might let it stay in the Wii Lobby.

Thanks, I'm sending Gheb a PM now.
Tell them to give me a membership or something. I can provide direct translations to you guys. :3

Mann, I'd also wish to get my voice out to Japanese boards. Could anyone lend me a hand? I don't know where to start...
Yeah, I'm trying to enter it. Being the most reliable person here you can request me to ask them questions or something. Not now, I can't access the community. Seeing I have free time even when the school year is active I can do a lot.

Well I'm not throwing everything at him at once. For someone I don't even know that is slightly unbecoming. Instead I simply let him know that I was referred to him as I had heard he had access to that board. If there is a way to get access I'll be sure to let you know Mecha.

Don't worry I'm not pushing. Take your time. :]

Also, Shortie and Horsetail. The reason I've been successful at Nsider is I did not market my thread as being part of a group. I simply posted my essay and created a thread where it can bee seen and discussed. Later on I went int my post and posted the link to my blog without any mention. So it does not appear as advertisement.

Another key is pacing. Learn when to post and not to post. So when you see your thread is lagging and you want to bump it back you aren't double posting. It takes a little bit of methodical thinking.

Okay. Though I think it can get tiring and repetitive discussion topic about characters with quite predictable responses when talk casually.
But I better not give up even if many people will say stupid posts and such.

About bumping, I'm quite aware about the pacing. The way I use it varies by the nature of the forums.

Just stick to your guns and try reworking things.

Been seeing a lot of alliance talk. I'll discuss more after work, but I'd recommend that we try to advertise our group at YouTube in hopes that people respond.

@Young Horsetail: This is why I wanted to plan before we started to make a major impact on other fourms.

Well I'm signing off. I was going to sleep like 3 hours ago.

Star if you ever get a response from those 2 users PM me if any info comes up. If I get access I'll repost information from there to here about what they say. I could probably post things about what we want there, too.

Anyways bye~~

I guess I got carried away, trying to attempt what Star did. I failed at that, as I can see... Sorry. (-l-l-);

Well I'm definitely going to take my time before I jump onto that board. I myself am having my own struggle with whether or not I should pick a more popular character to promote, because in the end I'm not going to convince 10,000 people to vote for Deoxys. But at the same time, no one has a bias against him as a character, unlike Krystal, who everyone either like, or hates, or if you're Oasis you hate her in SF, but would like her in SSB.

So, yeah. I have to figure out my own stuff before I jump at Nsider. Serebii is a good place to get support. I know if I stick with Deoxys, I could talk about him, and then integrate all of you guys into the conversation.

Is there any way you could ask them if they think K. Rool's costumes are his brothers, and clarify that they are in fact costumes if they believe this?

Ridley and K. Rool are two perfect candidates to create a petition for...random irrelevant Pokemon and Geno won't cut it, but they definitely should.

Here you go Star:

With all this talk of Super Smash brothers and character inclusion, I’m sure you’re either bored, or waiting for the catch. Well, here’s the deal. We all know a Smash 4 poll in inevitable, so I thought why not plug my character, and show you all how to vote for this character as well? As of right now, the poll doesn’t exist, but I’ve decided that a game plan is in order so none of us become flustered and we don’t get everyone’s votes in because we couldn’t figure out how to. So here is how this whole thing will go down:

As soon as I get word of Sakurai’s poll being created and open to the public, I will set up a link here. From there I will give you all the specific details on how to vote, and how many votes you have. I will also point out how to get to the ballot with baby step details for you all, because I’m such a great guy. :D I will have a list of characters whose names have been translated into Japanese. You would then copy and paste the characters you want to see, onto your ballot. You then submit your ballot, and BAM! You just contributed to making of Super Smash Brothers 4’s roster.

You vote, come back, tell me who you voted for (Hopefully Deoxys!) and then I’ll give you a high five, and congratulate you all, Because, American fans should really contribute to the selection process as well. Am I right?

Perhaps asking for an e-mail address so you could mail a reminder should be an option?
Do you think I should do that? One thing is for sure, I'm going to take all of the PCAM characters and add them to the "List of Japanese translated characters" as well as a few other that I personally like, and you guys like.

You can suggest who you want to see on the list, and I'll save them all :3
