this whole situation i think perfectly summarizes my issue with hgv69 even beyond the question of whether or not she's credible (which i think she isn't)

another guy on discord put it best that tiffany isn't in this for the community, she just does this as a social media stunt to push her own agenda. at least people like natedrake or grubb are well-known community members that actually interact with people, meanwhile with hgv it feels like we're just a proverbial meal ticket for her to sell her you-know-whats

I mean with a name like HotGirlVid69 you gotta wonder if it's something like porn related.

Then again, this might be a good lesson for some of the really, really overly obsessed side of the speculation. Like a "you guys would fall for anything". Not saying should happen but I'm kinda surprised that has not happened already in a crude way.
We've already kinda had an instance like that, although it wasn't related to Smash.

There was an F-Zero Twitter handle that some people believed to be a legitimate sign towards the franchise's revival and then it ended up surprising people with porn.

Watching Wendigo: American Cannibal tomorrow. Certainly one of Lost Tapes scariest episodes alongside Skinwalker and Death Crawler.

The HGV discussion is getting boring, I just want people to move on from that leak. She is not credible at all.

I still think its really nothing and were probably waiting until the last week of September or early October for FP7 coinciding with amiibo theory.
That's totally fine with me since I'll be preoccupied with work and Super Mario 3D All Stars, not to mention the PS5 showcase and a potential Monster Hunter Switch reveal this week.

Plenty of things to look forward to.

Ditto here, still settling into my place and keeping myself occupied with other things in my life notably bonding with my dogs, shows and movies to watch, outdoor activities, reading, and writing notably Lost Tapes ideas.

imagine not spending your entire day decoding HotGirlVid69's latest image leak in hopes of finally grasping the truth behind the next exciting inclusion for what is, undoubtly, the most important thing in the ****ing universe, and choosing to instead...gasp, actually step outside and do things.



That just doesn't sound like a life worth living TBH.

HGV is a ****ing genius, sending people off on a porn-themed leak quest. Can't believe I wasn't there to see it in action.

Boy I hope this site about Super Smash Bros. wouldn't have any huge fans of the video game series Super Smash Bros. on it. Would suck worse than that time I went to KFC and begged them to make me a burger.

Like, speculation is fun. I enjoy speculating and theorizing about what's coming next from Nintendo. I also have always been fascinated by the leaker scene and always liked theorizing about it and the stuff that goes on behind the scenes that leads to stuff getting leaked.

However, there are some instances when a rumor and/or source is just so blatantly fake and not worth your time, and in my opinion, I believe this is one of those times. Tiffany Treadmore is not an insider, nor does she have anything that even resembles anything trustworthy or legitimate, and the obsessive levels some are going to to try and cling to her words just shows some people are taking this thing way too seriously. I get some of y'all are bored and want news, but this whole business with Treadmore's nonsense is honestly starting show a desperation from some that is really not a healthy attitude.

There's a difference between showcasing your passion for Smash by partaking in activities like speculation and supporting your favorite characters, and being borderline obsessive by hyper-analyzing a blurred out image from an extremely unreliable source that has the high possibility of just being pornography.

I know. That is a bit concerning.

It is just video game characters in a children's fighting game, not your life. If you got a DLC character correct, I don't think you will have achieved much. I'm not against speculation, it can be fun. I am just against when people dedicate too much of their lives to it.
Toy Story 2 is the worst of the Original Trilogy, but it was also ahead of it's time in many ways.
I know. It is so funny that Al perfectly represents that annoying internet dude who's on social media all day.

Suddenly came up with another Lost Tapes idea. I just gotta think of a summary for it is all.

Mantis Man.

It revolves around parents and grandparents with their children going flyfishing on the Musconetcong river only to find themselves at the mercy of an insectoid-like humanoid creature.

I'm right though.

I'll just disagree and leave it at that. If people think TS3 was better than TS2, that's their lame baggage.

But yeah, they're all great movies nonetheless.
I'm getting doubtful that we're going to get Crown Tundra news this month.
Considering that their recent, "surprise news" was Charizard and Mewtwo movie events, yeah don't get your hopes up.

Al would definitely be the type of guy who Scalps Nintendo products.

Smash speculation is a phase every user here goes through. Some people stay in it longer than others. Eventually, the realization kicks in, and you start to take it far less seriously.

There's nothing wrong with talking about your favorite game, but holy ****, does this fandom bring out the claws, and quickly, in heated debates and discussions.

I swear Michael, I pay attention to your stuff but you should get into writing with some of these. Like a collection of short horror stories or a flash fiction of 2,000 words.

Al would definitely be the type of guy who Scalps Nintendo products.
Thanks dude for reminding me! click Mario 3D AllStars ordered.

In a year......I shall sell it......for one BILLION Dollars!

I’m good. I’m just not really into smash speculation anymore so I don’t visit here much these days. How you been?
I'm doing alright. Just cruising here and Discord with our two servers, mainly talking to Wade and such. I'm mostly just here for the friends to talk to now. Might take a break from the forums when the next fighter is announced.

I like to speculate, but not to the point where I argue which characters deserve to get in, or how my character is more likely than your character. I just like talking about the ones I want and why I think they might make it in. But taking it too far is definitely not a good thing. It's the reason I've hardly posted in any speculation threads apart from the character-specific ones. I doubt doing so will lead to any good.

That's not exactly a mystery - we know exactly where Mantis Men came from.

The Al memes are funny.

"They added BYLETH to SMASH? MY MOST WANTED CHARACTER DESERVED THAT MORE! I am going to HIT dislike, and tell everyone the real truth about BYLETH on Twitter. Fire Emblem is THE MOST EVIL THING EVER, and I will harass anyone who disagrees with me. We MUST resist against Fire Emblem!"

Yeah. If I’m being honest I find smash speculation kind of silly now. Like, it’s just video game lol chill out. I only really came here regularly before cause I didn’t have any friends. And now that I do I’m like. Eh. Who cares what character gets in y’know? It’s just for fun. I do still love smash tho.
