Don't you think if the dominance was going to be ridiculous it would have shown despite the lag? It's not like MK is the only character affected by TV lag either.
no. lag changes every single aspect of the game. it's like comparing apples and oranges.

What's your definition of dominant? Pound4 was very MK-heavy, and it used 5-starter and only 6 CPs.
1. look at it this way: diddy kong won pound 4. mk has dominated first place at all MLGs. it's easy to twist results so that they support your viewpoint.

2. i'm not talking about results as there are always other random factors that work in. talking about from a theoretical standpoint. how would mk NOT dominate with a huge starter stage list that guarantees a non-neutral stage as the playing field for the first match in the set, and a very liberal list of CPs? is there a way to explain how the other characters in the game would overcome this and beat him?

a bunch of random stuff
your post is very supportive of my idea that those who want an expansive list of starter stages just want it so MK will dominate and then a ban will be justified

it's funny that you'd bring up politics because this country is being ruined. read a book watch glenn beck and get a clue.
I laughed so hard, I nearly had an asthma attack.
Hey guys, lets watch the guy who called Obama racist against white people, and also did a comparison of empathy to Adolf Hitler!

A positive emotion, COMPARED TO ADOLF HITLER!

Hey man if you can listen to all that liberal stuff you should listen to the other side of the argument also. Unless of course you are that ignorant *shrugs* whatever floats your boat just don't vote for Obama again okay?

When practicing for an MLG tournament, you should always call the MLG company to find out the details, such as what TV's they are using, if your allowed to bring a headset to block any and all noise cancellation, etc. That way, you can practice on the laggy TV to get use to the laggy TV's at the MLG tournaments. I know when I practice, I have an HD TV, since that's the only TV I have at the room, but when I go to these tournaments, players bring in their 8" TV screens that's really hard to see. Also, they should put air conditioning for these tournaments, so players can concentrate better, instead of trying to concentrate on the heat so much.

ShadowLink, I love you, but irregardless is not a proper word. =(

Also, AlmostLegendary, the fact that you picked out that ONE irrelevant off-hand comment from his post that refuted everything you argued just proves you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

**** OR GTFO.

...

No, wait.

Just gtfo.

He is right though. You're dismissing legitimate arguments by flinging ridiculous claims everywhere.

Just like the republicans.

Fair enough... I'm not sure I buy putting all the blame on the lag, but I can't really argue with that.

You don't honestly think first place is a better indication than top 8, do you? When people talk about dominance, they're afraid of MK taking the top8/top16, not first place. First place is much more likely be the result of the individual than the environment, especially with the top three player situation we have right now.

Non-neutral stage is a silly term - what exactly is your definition of a "neutral"? A liberal list of CPs can easily be explained - MK already has very strong CPs in Rainbow Cruise and Brinstar. With the majority of sets being bo3, he can only go to one CP stage per set. Adding more may benefit him slightly, but not by much, unless the stage added is significantly better for him than say, Brinstar. On the other hand, adding Yoshi's Island: Melee would give Olimar a shot at beating MK. As for starters, it's not obvious to me that he will dominate any more than with 5-starters. Does MK really like PS1? Castle Siege?

Hey you're not from the US please don't talk about our politics k thanks bye.
God forbid someone from outside your country take interest in your politics for his own intellectual benefit.

Protip: If the militaristic country below us decides to elect a tyrannical, heavily biased dictator (which they haven't), I'd like to know in advance.

NO U.

Very sad

Correct, I am not Inui.
inui likes to use Miles Edgeworth!
I use...everyone else.

As for not being cool.
I don't know, I'd have to ask for a poll to be done.

Of course you won't find me funny.
You have your panties all in a bunch because people disagreed with you, so of course you won't find those same people funny.

Heck, it would be like laughing at a joke delivered by Adolf Hitler.
**** you glenn beck.

Congratulations Almost, you have pretty much proven yourself to be part of the population that has not gone beyond the age of 8.

The community should debate, should argue. Such a thing is perfectly healthy for the community, it is how the community grows and improves.
As soon as you start saying "I don't give a *** what he has to say", all it does is drag the community down because you're too **** stubborn to get your fingers out of your ears.

The U.S. is a world power, its politics are most certainly the business of other countries.
I like your trolling by the way.

If you're going to look at politics then do so in a non bias fashion which you demosntarted you couldn't. So if you're going to be bias and have you view influence by one side or views then you can simply STFU. DO your research look at both sides of the spectrum then contribute.

@ SL suck me.

You can't do this to women.

Edit: Not in the manner you suggest.
In anycase, I am sure Raziek has already done so and thus made his own judgement.
A non-bias party can still come to a conclusion that shows one side to be in the wrong.
Let alone that you are telling an individual to be non-biaed, but you're currently on a tirade concerning everyone against you.
I take back what I said, you're just an angry troll, even ADHD has some entertainment to his arguments.

I'm starting to think I may be wrong on this whole MLG thing. Are these the people I'm agreeing with? (I'm unable to properly form opinions on this because I just don't know things).

Someone please tell me that the others who support changing the rules get more than 1 channel on their TV.

I like how you automatically assume I haven't. I've looked at most of the republican party's policies, a fair amount of which I disagree with on various ethical levels.

Do you even know the political parties in Canada?

On topic: AlmostLegendary is wrong about nearly everything, and alternating caps haven't ever been cool. Discuss.

Nope, I have no interest in CA or any of their socialist practices.

T-Block, you're a mod! Can I keep posting gasm pictures without getting infracted?

They're totally relevant!
Same rules apply here as everywhere =P

Yes, Meno, yes you can.

edit: This is T-Block on demonictoonlink's account.
Yo mod impersonation isn't cool. Seriously.

Can we stay on topic guys? There was good discussion and I'd hate to see this thread closed before it's over.

No no no, get him a spot on Fox!
How do you think Glenn Beck got his show? He mained Donkey Kong, and represents him intellectually.

EDIT: On Topic: I'm considering changing my mind. Current rules all the way. Because... uh.... 9 stages yay?

I doubt there is anything there.
Real men don't stick their fingers in their ears and go "lalalalala!"
Are you a girl ? If so it'd be easy for you to find out. I just don't want to hear your rhetoric and non sense so I choose to ignore it. OkaY?

Glenn Beck doesn't tell me how to think. I just like listening to him because a lot of the things he says are true. Not to say I take his word as law however, I think he's a good source to listen to about politics. Watch him them form your opinion then read a book.
SOCIALIST LOL.

BAAHAHAHAHA.

So now universal health care isn't a socialist practice....I see thanks for clearing that up.

mad hate on republicans in here. inb4 inui or count.

I'm not going to pretend like I know much about politics like a lot of people do, but I will say that I don't like Glenn Beck as a person...like I can't stand him lol. I have watched both and formed my own opinions and O'Reilly>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Beck by a lot IMO
as people and how they argue.

edit:

now I'm inclined to believe you don't know much about anything you're talking about.

If I was, I'd finally figure out where the G spot is located.

You were born during the Cold War era.


@Tblock: All right all right.
9 stage starter> 5 stage starter.
Agree or disagree?

Hurk---gahhah

I really wish there was a way to revoke posting rights upon proof of the poster's idiocy.

T-BLOCK, GET ON THIS.

Also, to bring it up again and stay remotely on topic: Frigate Orpheon should replace Delphino as the 9th starter. Less janky.

Discuss.
