Sticky Sign-ups! (name pending)

[DanGR]

This will be the thread for people to "sign up" for different sections of threads that either need revising or just need to be redone entirely. This will really help out the creators of those threads so they won't have so much work to do, and it will also help the entire Olimar community by having up-to-date guides for everyone to either learn from or reference in the future!

(Credit will be given to the writers that choose to participate and help out. I'll make sure of it.)

Right now I need the people that have made threads that need more work to outline some of the different sections. A small sentence or two explaining what needs to be redone/revised about a particular section would help alot, too.

==========

The Olimar Matchup Thread:

Character Summaries- I haven't gotten around to writing character summaries for a lot of the characters we've discussed already. If you'd like to help out by writing one, please follow the format I've done for the rest of them. Also, for the ratios we'll have to discuss them some time later as a community. For now, just put what I've got down in the "Numbers" section.

Format:
Character Icon) Week #1 : Link (pg 1 and 52-57)
• Behaviour : (a description of what to expect to see during the match)
• His scaring moves : (The character's main attacks you should worrying about and how to combat against them/avoid/that sort of stuff)
• How to win ?: (General strategies that help you win!/ How to approach the matchup)
• Match-Up: (The ratio and a rating in parentheses. I'll take care of that part)
• Recommended stages: (counterpick stage/Ban stages and a small reason for each.)

I'll take care of any other formatting, as well as fixing the ratio and matching the stage bans/counterpicks to the counterpick/stage discussion threads.

Needs Revision:
#1-Link
#2-Wario
#3-Pikachu -DanGR
#4-R.O.B. -Fino
#5-Marth -Bob Saget
#6-Falco
#7-Kirby
#8-Pit
#9-Zamus
#10-Metaknight -Bob Saget

I hoping we'll get more people to help contribute to the Metaknight matchup. I'd like to have multiple people contribute their thoughts to that matchup.

Needs a Summary:
#11-Toon Link -Fino
#12-Peach -Fino
#13-Yoshi
#14-Wolf
#15-Mr. Game & Watch
#16-Snake
#17-Luigi -Plasma Pikmin
#18-Diddy Kong
#19-Donkey Kong
#20-Kind Dedede -Plasma Pikmin
#21-Ice Climbers -Fino
#22-Sonic
#23-Lucario -Hilt

It's made with the

 tags. The trick is knowing how to space the words in the chart.

Example:

[code]Color     Nickname       Other Nicknames

Green     Pink Boots     
Blue      Blue Gloves    Gay

I made the first column ten spaces wide, by adding blank spaces to the words after the columns until the amount of spaces and letters in the word in the column equaled ten. Green + five spaces = ten. Blue + six spaces = ten. For the second column, I made it fifteen spaces wide. Blue Gloves (11) + 4 = 15. That's the general idea. :X

Spoiler

I'm not use to making a joke posts haha, but I didn't know what else to make a chart of xD

 

[DanGR]

Thanks for the info. I tried it out, but it didn't look very nice. :/

 

[Fino]

I'll write R.O.B, Gay, Peach, and ICs for now. Also, could you add sign-ups for deflowered?

EDIT: what kind of format should we use for writting match-ups?

 

[DtJ Hilt]

Try it and post one, DanGR, and I'll tell you what you did wrong :x

 

[DanGR]

EDIT: what kind of format should we use for writting match-ups?

Umm, i I've got a lot of examples in the matchup thread. Basically, it's this:

(Character Icon) Week #1 : Link (pg 1 and 52-57)
• Behaviour : (a description of what to expect to see during the match)
• His scaring moves : (The character's main attacks you should worrying about and how to combat against them/avoid/that sort of stuff)
• How to win ?: (General strategies that help you win!/ How to approach the matchup)
• Match-Up: (The ratio and a rating in parentheses. I'll take care of that part)
• Recommended stages: (counterpick stage/Ban stages and a small reason for each.)

I'll take care of any other formatting. Also, you don't have to write up another summary for R.O.B. Just revise the one I've got up, if it's not too outdated.

Try it and post one, DanGR, and I'll tell you what you did wrong :x

Post what? >__<

 

[BOB SAGET!]

Ill revise marth. I play marths all the time.

 

[DtJ Hilt]

Post what? >__<

lol guess I should've been clearer.
try to make a chart, and put it in a post. I should be able to tell what you did wrong.
If you're still wanting to use those charts, that is

 

[DanGR]

Well, I think it did it correctly.

It just looks really cluttered when I've got so much text on one side of the page, and the other half of the black code box on the other. I don't think I need a chart format anymore. Thanks anyways, though. :/

 

[BOB SAGET!]

For marth, the how to win section really needs a revision the most. It really only tells you to avoid dancing blade. It doesnt help you much..

 

[Plasma Pikmin]

I guess I can do the Luigi, King Dedede, and Lucario Matchups for now. I'll have it done as soon as possible. Where do you want us to give them to you when we're done? Just post them here?

 

[DanGR]

Either here, the matchup thread, or in a pm.

edit:
Oh, and guys. Don't overwhelm yourself with too much work. We don't have a deadline.

 

[BOB SAGET!]

Ill pm u DanGR. I better get cracking.

 

[Noa.]

Fino, while I don't have enough experience to write up anything, I can take pictures in game for the guide. I can take pictures of all the different moves and stuff. It could show the difference in range between purple pikmin vs. other pikmin when it comes to smashes and grabs. Taking pictures of the pikmin sideB arcs could also be useful.

If any thread needs pictures of anything, I can take them and upload them to photobucket.

 

[DanGR]

I think that would be great, Draconoa. I don't know if Fino feels the same way, though.

If you do end up doing that, here's a good example of some great pics:

[Noa.]

I'll start doing it now. Hopefully Fino agrees, but if he doesn't then oh well.

Thanks for the example.

 

[BOB SAGET!]

I'll sign up for MK aswell, I used to main him.

 

[DanGR]

I hoping we'll get more people to help contribute to the Metaknight matchup. I'd like to have multiple people contribute their thoughts to that matchup.

 

[BOB SAGET!]

Thats a good idea. Since MK is... well.. Mk.

That would be awesome, and is currently on my to-do list for deflowered XD.
If you could do that, it'd be epic. If you want to like take a picture and then highlight the hit box area or something like that, that'd be sweet too.


~Fino

 

[Virgilijus]

I fully support this idea

~Fino

I'll start it tonight. I stay up late anyway so I don't mind. Highlighting the hitboxes would be nice. I'll see if I can somehow do that.

 

[BOB SAGET!]

Almost 2 hours of work. Marth revision is finished.

 

[Fino]

Ice climbers are done

Ice Climbers
Behavior: Grab
Their Scaring moves: Grab
How To Win? Don’t get grabbed (c-stick a lot)
Match-up 55:45 Olimar

I'll write the counterpick stages later....





as well as a more serious match-up XD It's only in outline form......... lol


~Fino

 

[Noa.]

Ice climbers.

You outcamp them. They have to approach. If they aerial pivot grab. If they do a ground move, fsmash. If they try to grab, fsmash. If they shield, grab. If they blizzard, jump over it. Kill with grab or just run and usmash. Don't get grabbed. Done.

I had to correct myself :X

*needed a picture :D
lol


~Fino


EDIT: the picture is deceptive... but I assure you... don't get grabbed. Naughty... err... bad things could happen

 

[DtJ Hilt]

Plasma, why don't you let me take the Lucario matchup and you pick ones you had And just take one at a time. As far as I see it, the main reason for this is to create activity and it's working. Also, Pika and Lucario are the two matchups I have mass amount of experience in. And DanGR's covering the Pikachu one so I'd like to get the other :x

 

[Plasma Pikmin]

Sure Hilt, you can have the Lucario one. =D

 

[Fino]

Sorry for the wait DanGR, I hope I'm not holdin people back. After work tonight I will write those character guides, unless my parents yell at me for a long time about having parties while they were gone :X


~Fino

 

[Llumys]

Curious.

An Olimar main who is abused by his parents feels the need to control others within a game.

I'm not abused by my parents... however they didn't find out anyways :D

[Dotcom]

I could Do Pit and Snake but other people maybe be better for the Job then me for it, i'd like IcyLight to do Snake honestly.

 

[BOB SAGET!]

Ill sign up for diddy kong. I know this matchup pretty well now.
