Okay, you're right on that one, Shovel Knight is nowhere near as damaging as Gematsu.
Or the Inklings rumor. Or the great Ridley debate. Or K Rool. Or Krystal in Brawl.

I only said mid December as I think we are really close to a breaking point with character announcements. We've been saying they will come any day now, and I think they kind of have to. Also with a Nintendo Direct being confirmed for this year I think mid December is the latest we would see it (before Xmas).

To me, it was either the Gematsu or Palutena leak. Mostly the latter, since it seemed like every day people would pull up the leak just to talk about how totally right it is. Though I'll admit the whole Shulk fisaco when Gematsu was still around was utter bullcrap.

With all this talk of Shovel Knight I want to share this.
Shovel Knight has been getting a lot of love lately and nobody can deny that.

I suppose so. Granted I think that we'll get some sort of announcement in the coming weeks or next month, I have a feeling that the best time to have a direct though is before Black Friday, due to how they could sell things using that tactic, I'd say expect one close to then but I wouldn't want anybody to get their hopes up. Anyways these rumored characters have an odd trend, they're all from new franchises.

I wouldn't be surprised though if we got three characters now and six characters later, but that's just me. (I wouldn't expect too many characters though, so eight would be my limit.

Anyways, I say we ignore these rumors, even if they aren't that destructive, they've caused more harm then good, and I don't think anybody can deny that, so let's just drop the subject. And talk about something POSITIVE!!! :chuckle:

Well Shovel Knight would've been a curveball had it not been for all these rumors.

You know that "leak" you brought up with Tails, yeah, Tails would be a curveball, I would've never expected Tails.

If we only have 3 characters left, one of which being a character who should have been playable from the get go, I'm gonna be disappointed

Look I don't care how many characters are left.

One of them better be Rayman or else I'm making a sandwich and eating it in anger.

You know? Just imagine if Shovel Knight was never actually leaked (provided its true)? I wonder how the Smash Community would react to his inclusion (again, provided it's true) :p?

Oh hey another reason for me to be pissed if Indivisible doesn't get funded. I haven't even played SK

Looks so damn good.

EDIT was looking for examples for some Java code.

For some reason this was an example

The same they reacted to the leak 'Of course, he was such an obvious choice!' or 'WHYYYYYYYY'

I'm making a sandwich out of anger too if the DLC characters don't appeal to me. If they do then I make a sandwich out of joy

It would have been another WFT moment.
Only there actually would have been people that supported him ahead of time.

Probably an internet version of The Pacers-Pistons Brawl (look it up).

In all seriousness there would've been loads of salt followed by acceptance.

It's fine, it's not like it is true

But for real, either way there's going to be overwhelming negative and positive receptions on many sides.

At this point I don't even care about which DLC characters we get, I just want something new and fresh to look at.

Probably the same general reactions people had when Tamaki initially released the rumor, just, you know... much more vocal.

For all we know, SK was suppose to be the curveball (if it's true).I think we would have
Blown our collective minds. (like Ryu was suppose to be but at least with him it was the fault of a poor choice of breaking up a quote).

Anyways, I say we ignore these rumors, even if they aren't that destructive, they've caused more harm then good, and I don't think anybody can deny that, so let's just drop the subject. And talk about something POSITIVE!!! :chuckle:
You know...if you keep saying it maybe some day it will be true. Id really want to see your proof of the SK rumor being more destructive than good. And as far as I can tell you are.literally.the.only.one.claiming.it.

Yep. That's definitely the Smash Community lol. Except the coach is Masahiro Sakurai and the NBA players are the development team in my mind :p.

Can't reply to the person who expects more then 3 characters (they're on ignore) but..

Is there any chance of there being over 4 Ballot characters? I'm expecting just 3.

Wait, which SK rumor, Tama's? Oh, dude, that is WAY more destructive than good. Did you not see the absolute uproar it caused? But correct me if I'm wrong please

But yeah, people say "LET'S GET POSITIVE" after every leak argument lol

You should probably get that checked

...Why do you keep using child birth memes I mean,

I'm sure there must be some other way to portray excitement omg
.......I'd make a joke about a delay on the release being a stillbirth, but that'd probably be in bad taste.
