Rud Lisi's hypothesis isn't a bad one. It's quite possible and it's sort of a compliment to rubyiris imho. Fact remains it is only a hypothesis though, and where you went to school doesn't mean a damn thing. I also didn't know MIT was known for their psych department lol.

Oh man, a non-technical undergraduate degree from a renowned technology school? How impressive. You are going to be one hell of a barista.

As a psych major double majoring in another subject, I'm here to ask that we not judge psych majors based on other psych majors.

EDIT: And also that we not assume that all psych majors will end up working crappy no-college-degree-required jobs. Grad school ftw. Speech therapy is where it's at, yo.

this made me laugh pretty hard my life keeps getting better and i don't really think it hinders my ability to play a game and improve at it at all. I'm unaware how not needing smash anymore would prevent someone from getting better regardless.

i'm sure it doesn't hinder you, because you aren't making a thread complaining about skill regression. I'm not saying it happens to everyone, just Rubyiris

hopefully your MIT education has taught you how preposterous it is to use the authority of the institution you hail from as the justification for your argument

To you and everyone else in this thread, i'm not saying i know everything just cuz of my school, its just more likely i know more than the guy i responded to, since most people on this site are much younger than me and have not yet learned a lot about their major. I just pointed out what college i go to cuz i figured he'd ask anyway, i'm not trying to brag or anything.

I'm a psych major who's not actually a psych major and you're all wrong.

:awesome:

In case of confusion, I have nothing to do with psych, I'm an aspiring music major

the disparity between what you were trying to say and what everyone interpreted is pretty strong evidence that you didn't communicate that very well. and not everyone here is younger or less educated than you - perhaps fewer than you think.

This ain't brawl son.

The average age of a melee player skews towards the upper range of college age, 21-25 or so. This is partly because we're older in general and partly because there are also a lot of outliers from the previous generation, 26-30 year old smashers who still putter around because they're awesome like that.
