Social Swamp's Social Thread 3 - And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain...

I saw worst ships than that and he haven't dug to the rotten core of them. But just for fun, I'll bring up one that's truly the worst of the worst.

x

And yes, some silly fool out there thought this ship was a good idea.

What about x ?

That one seems legitimately popular from what I know, but it's basically someone with the mind and body of a thirteen year old getting into a romantic relationship with his own disembodied pessimistic and tryhard emotions formed into the shape of himself.

 

[Chrono.]

So apparently the PC port for Tales of Symphonia is very bad.

Loaded with text errors, prone to crashing, Dynamic DRM creates new .exe file every time it starts up, among other oddities.

Hey guys, here's an idea...

Do you guys wanna join a Slack chat? I could make it because I have a Slack account.
Slack has emojis, bold text, and tons of the stuff Smashboards has got and we can chat to unrelated things going on or not going on in the thread.

Just as a little sidechat for the thread. Anyone interested? If more then 10 people want me to, I'll make the room. I'll need you guys emails though.

...So is only one person interested?

 

[N3ON]

Wow so that Nigerian hack was like an after-dinner mint compared to the prime rib that was the DDoS attack.

Step up your game Nigeria.

 

[Chrono.]

So that's what that email looked like? I didn't even bother opening it myself.

No that's what the entire website looked like for a bit.

 

[Wario Bros.]

Smesh Fore Tire list is now out?

Meh, not like I religiously follow tier lists to begin with. But of course this is just the first draft.

 

[A Distant Demon]

Pit X Viridi is the only acceptable KI ship.

still waiting to find a translation of chapter 16 to know if it's canon.

The same can be said for Dark Link x Link or Shadow x Sonic. Even Palutena x Pit seems less controversial than that one.

But at least it isn't a plumber being shipped with himself as a damn doctor.

 

[ChikoLad]

I voted so that's probably proof enough.

This was mostly so competitive discussion could stop being the unfocused mess that it is. The list was delayed a few weeks so Genesis results could be included (ex. Toon Link). I won't share my vote in full but mine did differ with the following:

Higher:

Lower:

I think the biggest differences I had were Roy/Wii Fit. Cloud/Mewtwo/Lucas/Kirby I had in spots in-between the current Letter ranks. Pikachu/Jr. are slept on IMO, but lack of reps... There's some good Zard/Dedede/Samus mains in my region so I do think they have more potential than people give them credit for, although they still need buffs.



So that's what that email looked like? I didn't even bother opening it myself.

Nah I agree that I think it makes sense to release the list during this version of the game. I don't think there is anything wrong with releasing it now. I just think it's funny that it came literally two days before the next patch, even though that couldn't be helped. It's like handing an assignment in at the last possible minute or something.

If anything this gives us a good reference for characters that are changed in the next (final?) patch.

It's more or less Sonic x Shadow.

Really wish this trend of PC ports being garbo would stop already.

"Dynamic DRM"

Why is that combination of words both so hilarious and so sinister

 

[Fenriraga]

...So is only one person interested?

I feel like it doesn't get so crazy that I can't get my thoughts out here on the thread, no matter what they may be, so I can't say I really see the point.

Because that's how EA sells you Sim City.

Meh, not like I religiously follow tier lists to begin with. But of course this is just the first draft.

Still, I do find it funny that most of my mains are in the low tiers (the lowest being Gunner and the highest being Mario).

Shame Ganondorf hasn't changed positions since Brawl though. Well there's always room for metagame development.

Samus x Mac is trash, Samus is like 30 and Mac is what 16? WiiMac is the way to go. And...ZSS x Pit...true disgust

Trash ships? Pit x Palutena for one. Pit x Dark Pit. Honestly give me a ship and we'll see if it's LTP approved

I'll give Dark Link x Link that, but

Shadow wasn't cloned from Sonic

He was cloned from Black Doom and just somehow looks like Sonic

Sonadow doesn't make any darn sense, but it doesn't come off as a metaphor for something that isn't proper to mention on this site.

I wouldn't know since I haven't looked for fanart on Pixiv in months.

It's just a side place if the thread get's to hectic. Plus it's mobile-friendly unlike Smashboards. It's really just a 2nd hangout place.

 

[wedl!!]

I like x. From what I can decipher (not familiar with Ike) the two have pretty similar histories.

I don't ship Bayonetta with anyone because her and Jeanne are literally perfect.

Someone agrees! Bayonetta x Jeanne is flawless tbh. Honestly the only Samus ship I ship is Falcon X Samus.

 

[AwesomeAussie27]

Unfortunately, it's no joke. It's as real as any other outlandish ship like Yoshi x Greninja or Duck Hunt x Ness.

I can't say that you were missing out on much in that site. No exceptions for any ship in this crazy zone called the Internet.

 

[MainJPW]

Samus x Mac is trash, Samus is like 30 and Mac is what 16?

He's 17 actually....still tho.

I'll give Dark Link x Link that, but

Shadow wasn't cloned from Sonic

He was cloned from Black Doom and just somehow looks like Sonic

Sonadow doesn't make any darn sense, but it doesn't come off as a metaphor for something that isn't proper to mention on this site.

I literally forgot about that whole weird Black Doom thing. It was like someone's strange fan fiction. He also doesn't look all that similar to Sonic to me...I just figured all hedgehogs in Sonics world look similarish to each other given the fact that they're the same "species" and all.

N3ON Signature is great!

So apparently the PC port for Tales of Symphonia is very bad.

Loaded with text errors, prone to crashing, Dynamic DRM creates new .exe file every time it starts up, among other oddities.

I have to wonder if it's really THAT hard to make a PC port.
I mean, we're talking a 12-year old game ported by the company that made it being locked at 30fps, 720p, with tons of text errors that weren't there before, and DRM.

How. Do. You. ****. This. Up?

 

[N3ON]

I ship Titanic x Argo.

I also enjoy both those movies.

N3ON Signature is great!

Thanks! ^_^

Oh how the mighty have fallen.

From kick ass bounty hunter

to uhh. . .well let's just say saying she is footloose is focusing too much on one body part.

Samus must have had some Cougar DNA mixed in with the Chozo DNA

Looking at Arkham Knight, BO3, and other such wonderful ports that have plagued Steam.
Very easily.

...Pretty similar histories?
: Watches her parents eaten by a giant space dragon and taken in by space chicken people. Trains in the equivilent of the US Army before going rogue as a bounty hunter... who almost always is doing work FOR the GDF but ultimately in pursuit to end the Space Pirates.
: Mother Unknown, Father's a war hero who set up a small band of mercenaries which Ike is part of. After watching his father die in a duel with The Black Knight, Ike gains control of the group and ends up getting caught in a full scale war of countries... twice... and ultimately ends up having to fight a diety that wishes to reset the world.

Smashboards isn't mobile friendly? I beg to differ, I do almost everything here via my phone. I really like the layout.

 

[Deleted member]

I was looking for some Tom & Jerry music (don't ask) and i found this.

My god, i loved Tom & Jerry as a child (and i still do). I even like some of the Chuck Jones shorts.

The Gene Dietch Shorts are terrible though.

 

[AreJay25]

My favorite ship is x Cake.

Squeak Squad was literally just him kicking everyone's ass to get his loved one back. I can respect that.

 

[Depressed Gengar]

Waluigi X Lucina OTP don't argue.

I doubt anyone was predicting Corrinetta to be released this week.

It's pretty much just for reference sake.

I've only got experience from my old 3DS, so I'm likely wrong yea. At least for me it wasn't too mobile friendly.

Also, Kirby x Jigglypuff is love and life

Good God, why does THAT exist? I can understand yuri or yaoi, but this? The Smash shipping community just loves to scrape at the bottom of the trash filled barrel just to "be creative" with their couples.

It's not romantic, but I always imagined having a crush on .

I regret nothing.

Just gonna fix that for you.

The only ship I'll take is one going far away from this as possible.
