Voted for Josh Bones because he put Toad and Waddle Dee, yet neither Peach nor Meta Knight are present in his roster.

Voted Josh because his roster only has 12 series. However, I was thinking about Bindingblade or SmasherMaster because I think adding more than two of Palutena, King K, Ridley, and Shulk is way too safe.

@ Depressed Gengar Depressed Gengar yeah I understand. I thought they might be risky. I wanted a retro newcomer, and they also would allow me to add Ice Climbers much later.

It's bad because at this point you should have more than that. We are getting close, to melee's size roster (if not already there) so you should have around 16 at least. I think most of us already have around 18.

This round did a lot for other rosters, in my opinion. Clearly I like representation of many series', which is ironic as I think the game could have seven reps from Mario and Pokemon if it breaches fifty

It's funny how KingShadow voted for The Light Music Club because of Donbe and Hikari but didn't care that I added Muddy Mole.
Donbe and Hikari are Japan only retros with no notable following for Smash (unalike Takamaru and Lip).
Muddy has a few followers and I'm fairly certain he was worldwide.

That's debatable. At least Donbe and Hikari got a trophy in melee. Takumaru and Muddy didn't. All of them have some level of following to be playable, and all of them have threads here.

There's a Donbe thread? Must be pretty inactive then. I've never seen it.
That said, still comparing Donbe/ Hikari to Takamaru, Lip, Mach Rider, Muddy, and others, it's pretty obvious who has more popularity.
Besides, the "Trophy" argument is invalid. Diddy had no trophy in Melee, and yet he was playable in Brawl.

I can't vote for Sheik...
because I freaking love Gardevoir! :p

The roster stands out as a bit odd, but I will be voting for a different roster... let's see whose...

Even though I wasn't even considering him before, I can't get passed the fact that Josh Bones has Blue Toad, Bandana Dee, and Waluigi on his roster...
I understand why you have Waluigi, and that if you didn't, you'd be out, but I just think... it isn't the best roster...
I think you could have done better with what you were working with.

:laugh: lol... I actually have a vote. Seems like an odd time for a throw-away when there are so rosters that go against... well... Smash Roster rules. I don't know how to say that any better.

There were four rosters that I considered voting for:

Chase: I don't think Star Fox, Kid Icarus, and Fire Emblem should all be given more than Kirby. I also don't think Krystal should be added before either of the two Star Fox veterans.
SmasherMaster: Seems...kind of safe. I don't think he has any retros either.
The_Sheik: I think there are better choices for Pokemon out there than Gardevoir.
josh bones: I don't like how you only have twelve franchises represented on a thirty character roster. I also don't think Toad and Bandana Dee should be added over Peach and Meta Knight.

My vote ended up being between Chase and josh and in the end I decided to vote for josh.

I voted for josh bones for the previously mentioned reasons- Toad over Peach, Bandana Dee over Meta knight, too few series represented, Waluigi over a lot of characters.

I liked all the rosters this round, and I even think Josh Bones has the potential for a good roster, but I just like Waluigi the least. Him as a choice, not who he happened to get on the roster before another character was my reason for voting him out.

well, this is the end, somehow people forget that I can't. Add veterans in a newcomer round and vote me off over the guy who did the same thing

Krystal before. Falco and wolf fine
toad before peach: kill him
seems legit
Before Falco and Wolf got in Smash, they didn't really stand out among the Starfox cast...
Krystal has been a fan-favorite since her debut.
So while it doesn't make much sense now... It at least used to.
Blue Toad isn't really significant compared to Peach, Standard Toad, Rosalina, Bowser Jr, and Paper Mario
But Waluigi and Bandana Dee are probably why you're getting votes.

Good, It seems I get a chance to add on to this roster. I was planning on adding another oddball retro next round, but after having Donbe and Hikari get me a vote, I think I'll wait

Hint: They are female.

Well... I remember you saying you liked Lip.

You have 50% of the votes as of now.
Chase only has 28.6%
Sorry, but things aren't looking good for you.
Calling people "crazies" will likely only earn you more votes.

Huh?
Were they popular picks for Melee and Brawl? I really don't remember that being the case...

I have Lip already lol. I'm sure I'll add her later. Probably later. If I get out before that, Ill tell you all who.
I see you like anime stuffs: http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/Ayumi_Tachibana

Looks like an anime-styled, female, retro, Nintendo character who had a trophy in Melee.

Seems like your kind of pick, right? Is it her? Did I win? Huh? Huh?

back in melee, there was only Falco and Wolf, Krystal didn't even exist back then, they weren't popular or loud, but they were all that was there.

in brawl was different there was wolf and Krystal, thanks to the boisterous and load support for Krystal it wasn't hard to think that she was more popular, but in truth wolf actually was, their supporters was just more silent compared to the upbeat of Krystal supporters

Voted for josh bones due to having the fewest series, along with the questionable choices of Toad and Waddle Dee this early.

Fairly diverse voting this round.
I voted for shortie, for a couple reasons. The first being that both Ridley and K. Rool are present before Bowser. Having both Palutena before Peach and Zelda doesn't sit right either. Despite obvious differences, I think having both the Mii and Villager this early on is a bit redundant. And as much as I like Wonder Red, I can't help but feel the time isn't right for him just yet.
Tough round, best of luck to you all.

Also, this goes for a few rosters. Why Jigglypuff? The only reason we'd be considering her is because of Smash Bros, and it seems odd to put her in over Charizard, Mewtwo, Meowth, or Lucario.

Firstly, why does this site get all weird if I hit reply to two different things, it doesnt seal the first quotation.

Secondly, DID wolf have more support, or is it just easier to say that in retrospect? I wanted Falco removed for Wolf, and Krystal added. I think we got what we did out of laziness.
