Mostly just choppy, but there are some times when its still for a long time, but mostly choppy
Choppy is the worst. I was playing someone with whom I have had a pretty solid connection, except this time it was really slow and jumpy. I kept thinking "stop downloading whatever you're downloading" since I can't really talk to him. Then when the match was over, I remembered I was streaming some music from Pandora and causing all that lag between us. It was all my fault all along. Even the littlest thing made such a big difference.

I don't know how your ISPs and networks are set up over in India. But I think that even though latency can't be helped (button lag), choppyness is always solvable. Maybe there's something or someone actively using your connection. Maybe someone in your house (solvable) or anyone in your city (not solvable unless you change service or someting) is using the same pipe you are using for Brawl.

Still, it sucks that there aren't enough Brawl players in your area.

The networks are pretty much the same here, but you have to fix stuff yourself because everyone in this country is completly uninformed about how a computer works. \:
My last match I was downloading music, which yeah, did contribute to the chopppppy lag. I just recently burned out my super good wireless router, which is terrible because now I'm back to the linksys. I could try it out with one of you, but then when you guys back home settle down at your computers after a long day of work, it's 4am in India!

It'll be the Luigi Ditto Ladder (LDL for short). Expect it mid November a few days after the 16th.

kb, I love Linksys. I think it's the best. You should port forward your Wii... I'm SURE I can help you do that, since I've already done that to my Wii on my Linksys.

chic, you're like the Gimpyfish of Luigi... what you lack in ATs, you make up for in tactical skill and mindgames.

thanks... i guess
What can I say, chic? When you were in the SIMPLE LL owning everybody else, you hadn't mastered Luigi's Green Missile Ledge Sweetspot. And you're currently learning to master the FFAD Buffer. I can do it like clockwork and yet you still kick my arse.

Cheer up mate; comparison to Gimpy is always a good thing.

Compared to top Melee players, Gimpy wasn't proficient with ATs. But he was still a top Melee player (Bowser, no less) because he was amazing with mindgames and overall skill.

At least, that's what I've read about him.

I would SO go. I've got some vacation time built up and have been meaning to take a road trip for some White Castle burgers with my wife anyway. I'll go as far as Chicago but no further. Sorry New Yorkers.

"hobo?" Stabbin' Hobo is my gamertag playing Team Fortress (spy class). I stole it from The Simpsons like you stole Mr. Sparkle.

Hobo: "Mornin, folks!"
Homer: "What are you gonna do to us?"
Hobo: "Now don't worry, I'm not a stabbin' hobo, I'm a singin' hobo!" :singing: "Nothing beats the hobo life! Stabbin' folks with my hobo knife!"

Yes. I will go.

I sure could. Mag, would you be able to help me test something out as we play? We'll use this thread to communicate, or if you use MSN messenger we could do that too.

I just want to test some CPU Team Battle settings. Like: If i make the room and choose a CPU teammate, can you add one as well? When you get to change the settings, are you the only one who can change CPU teammates?

EDIT: Note... if you joing my room, join the red team.

lol right as i finish my hw too

my (weird) idea is to have groups of 2-3 based on skill :p and the formula should be something like this ladder to balance position point gains, but idk really im just bored

Hah, eggz is a funny guy IRL. So is Gimpy. If you guys weren't so lame and came to some WA tournaments you could meet them (and me!), but noooo. :(

No really, we're having a huge tourney in Spokane, WA in early January 09. Something like 130 people are already signed up to go, so its going to be great. Seeing another Luigi there would be way cool, so just saying, you guys should consider going, then I can prove how much better I am than all of you ;)

Also, on Allisbrawl I'm signed up for free housing for the tourney. I might be housing some other guys, but I'm sure I could make room for one of you cool Luigi board frequenters.
