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

[Substitution]

What is this bet Substitution ? If it isn't dumb I might just join.

Just a bet on who you think will get in. Winner(s) pick the loser(s) avatar(s) for a week (or seven days).

 

[IceBreakerXY]

The only real thing i want from this boardcast.Is 1 melee stage.It cant be that hard.Fourside,fountain of dreams, Venom,etc. Just 1. 1 is all i want

......I am still am and going tbh, I should still be it, the only reason I psot less in it is because it;s the end of speculation soon.

And going tbh, if I had to give OP (which I will never do as far as my support is concerned), it woudln;t be you, I know other people that would do a better job.

For example, did you know that your sig was linking a defunct thread since a month or 2?

Click it, it;s not open for replies, the thread got moved by me in the new support group.

Plus, you never actually got into the thread......

Just a bet on who you think will get in. Winner(s) pick the loser(s) avatar(s) for a week (or seven days).

But what determines who wins and who doesn't and who gets to choose whose avatars in the end?

 

[Opossum]

Regardless of the bet I'm still confident it's gonna be the Inklings.


Also **** Level E-5 of Luigi's Mansion: Dark of the Moon. So salty...I only had the Globber left to kill and he was almost dead...but nope. And the lack of checkpoints means I have to do that whole timed hell level again.

 

[TheAnvil]

Originally it was "If Pichu gets in", but at this point it's who you think will get revealed. Winner(s) get to pick the loser(s) avatar(s) for a week. Speaking of...

Rules have changed. Could you pick who you think will get in?



You can join, but is it okay if you instead pick a character?
It's just easier to have everyone on an equal footing.

I'll stick with this:

Though with this, we could all be wrong!

 

[Pokechu]

Um... that's fine. I'll pick Shovel Knight then. Might as well.


Uh... it's nothing bad. It's meant to be a joke. I guess I'm sorry if you feel that way. If you don't want me to joke with you, that's fine.

n0n0n0

It's not that

but it's REALLY common

the spoilers are really funny but it's just kind of like

To open or not open? Y'know? When you know what's waiting?

 

[vaanrose]

Either loser must also write a paragraph explaining in detail what a great character Indiana Jone's Willie Scott is.

Oy! Nobody implies Temple of Doom isn't awesome and gets away with it when I'm around. Willie Scott can sing in Chinese. That's pretty sweet.

So, how about I go with Dixie then? Sounds all right to you?

But what determines who wins and who doesn't and who gets to choose whose avatars in the end?

The first part is simple, it's the Nintendo Direct.
The winners are the ones who get their characters revealed in said Direct (and pick the avatars), and the losers are the ones who don't.

 

[SegaNintendoUbisoft]

So I guess this has been talked about since it's a few days old at this point but...

Rare has the final say over Rare Replay coming to Wii U or not? Before you lot jump down my throat, no, I don't think this has anything to do with Smash, I doubt it'll even come to fruition but... that's interesting. That's very interesting.

Also I want it. Rare Replay is one helluva collection. :D

Just the thought of the XBLA versions of Kazooie and Tooie being on the Wii U is just....amazing, to say the least.
I don't see it happening, but man, I wish it would.

 

[LIQUID12A]

We all waiting for the Direct and I forgot that The Force Awakens comes out next Thursday.

Hype.

I know that, but...
But, who is deciding the avatars for the losers? Is it just you or are there...um...rivals?

I'm sorry, what?

 

[Cutie Gwen]

I'm sorry, what?

He's talking about Substitution having a contest, he might have accidentally quoted you

 

[Substitution]

I know that, but...

It's anyone who gets theirs picked (AKA the winners), so everyone is equal in this, including me.
In other words, if it's not Pichu that's revealed than I don't pick but instead get a new avatar by whoever is the winner(s).

 

[BluePikmin11]

Who's going to make a thread for the betting thing though?

I'm making a PM for everyone involved in the bet.

Honestly I'll be really surprised if Waluigi and Isabelle aren't promoted for Smash 5.

It just makes sense. Animal Crossing deserves more then 1 rep, and Waluigi is...well, REALLY demanded.

When it comes to playable characters, Mario representation in Smash tends to go in favor of characters with main series importance. The fact that both Rosalina and Bowser Jr were added in favor of Waluigi's promotion is proof of this.

And considering Nintendo clearly has no intention of making Waluigi anything other than spinoff fodder in spite of his popularity, I'm quite certain he'll remain an Assist Trophy in Smash 5 unless he's promoted in the main series.

Isabelle, on the other hand, is most definitely the likeliest possible second Animal Crossing rep. I'd actually put her at the top of the list for Assist Trophies who are most likely to be promoted in Smash 5.

 

[Con0rrrr]

I'm working on a satire video for "Predictions" on the Smash Direct.

Lots of references to our community over the years and the initial recording is pretty damn hilarious. I think you all will enjoy it a ton.

Expect it in the next 2 hours.

 

[Deleted member]

I love Road to El Dorado. I know it's off-topic, but i love it so much.....

 

[Frostwraith]

Because this is the very last Smash-dedicated presentation we'll see in a good while, I made a bingo for the final occasion.

Here goes:

Took more time than I expected and some of the spots are not too serious.

 

[aldelaro5]

you remind me of a popular pun users of the main social thread liked to do on my username some months ago

Joe and Panchito are fairly popular in the Netherlands actually. They appear in the Donald Duck comics fairly often. Doesn't help Carl Bark's sequel was pretty well written

 

[Burb]

B

1. Inkling as Playable Character
2. Fake Out
3. Trophies
4. Ballot Discussion (by Sakurai or Nintendo worker)
5. Leak

I

1. CSS being re-ogranized
2. Custom Moves for DLC characters
3. Mii Costumes
4. Solid Snake (or any Snake)
5. Meltdown from any Smash Community

N

1. Sakurai make his appearance in the broadcast (any actions is just bonus)
2. Palutena's Guidance for DLC characters
3. Cloud - Free Space
4. Inkopolis
5. Isaac (for anything like Mii Costume, etc)

G

1. Takamaru Mii Costume
2. Holy **** or OMG moment (It have to be legit)
3. Microsoft
4. Classic Smash Bros Intro
5. 4 Characters

O

1. Shadow Moses Island
2. EShop Crash
3. 3 or more DLC stages
4. Amiibo
5. Wolf


It's impossible to make the bingo without being unreasonable.. so I have no choice but fill it out with some crazy stuffs.

Probably should've put "Splatoon Stage" and "MGS Stage" in rather than Inkopolis and Shadow Moses. They're a bit too specific. Like, imagine if we got Inkling and the stage bundles with them was something other than Inkopolis. It'd be sorta bull.

Shadow Moses is a safer guess (well, as safe as any guess involving a Snake return can be, considering he has little-to-no chance of coming back), but it suffers from the same issue nevertheless.

 

[BluePikmin11]

Anyone have a Bingo card template I can use. I'd like to participate in that too.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

I made a bingo card, but I ate it Q.Q

 

[Deleted member]

Honestly, my complaint with these bingo cards is that salt should be the free space.

 

[Kenith]

Salt is the free space on mine, see?

Spoiler

I think it's cheating to have something that's GUARANTEED anywhere else. XD

 

[Icedragonadam]

I wish I had good photoshop skills. I want to join in the bingo card fest too.

 

[Z25]

So I'm curious, why does every bingo posted so far have Snake on it?

He isn't the most likely( but that may be the point), and as I stated before, I don't think Nintendo would want all the hate that come towards them for bringing Snake back because of Konami. However if he is back, it may have been to late to drop the deal...
As a fan of Snake, I'm not even sure I want to see konamii coming back after what they've done...

 

[aldelaro5]

So, it;s still a mario hack, but the animations are really nice:

like it at least has some paper mario movement to it, not the best, but what can you do with the body structure, it;s pretty good

 

[Deleted member]

We all waiting for the Direct and I forgot that The Force Awakens comes out next Thursday.

Hype.

I would be on the opposite side if it weren't for this thread

People love the character, regardless of the company.

Hate the sins, not the sinner mentality.

I've finally settled on my Top 3 Nintendo newcomer wants:

1. Dixie

Amd top 3rd party is the impossible Banjo K-Money.

Nah, let's not. I'm done with the conspiracies.
I just want Tuesday to come sooner so all this will be over. No more flame wars; no more witch hunting; just peace.

Your #1 in particular is a solid choice. I'm genuinely surprised she hasn't been included yet honestly...

But he did. It's the final Smash Direct.
This will be over soon, and I thank God for that.
