I'm bored and I need to play melee. Someone teach me how to play melee. I once took a stock off of some guy named dope, he was apparently like totally good and what not. So you know I'm like totally at least good enough to like take a stock off of some guy.

Seriously.

hey ankoku/scotu or anyone else experienced with recording. i recently discovered i have the ability to record videos. i'd like to take my recording equipment to a tournament. the problem is, i'm not sure what exactly i do with it once i get there. do i hook it up to a tv and leave it recording the entire time? if so, how do i split the videos up afterwards?

Melee report.

Confidence level overall: 60%
Techskill improving greatly, Teching improving well, mindgames going greatly for Roy, moderately satisfactory for Ganon.

BTW, in addition to my smashfest on Wednesday, I am driving to Ann Arbor on Thursday to meet up with some people and get some stuff done. I'll probably be there all day. So, if you live in Ann Arbor and wanna buy stuff, lemme know =D

mindgames aren't character specific, dude.

Yes they can be. While the term "mindgames" doesn't mean only certain characters can do it, there are definitely character-specific mindgames. However, it generally refers to playing the character differently than the opponent would expect which is obviously not character-specific. I would say that there are characters who have moves which allow them to perform said mindgames better and more effectively however.

In the end to avoid any confusion on that matter I decided to separate mixups from mindgames, with mixups being strictly the options a character has to do different things in the same situations, which are then applied through mindgames which are the actual player's thoughts and plans.

Man, that's sad, because I have a friend who I have to point out to him when I'm being sarcastic.

Now I have to do it on the internet.
