If it makes you feel any better, I live in a Melee-less desert with pretty much only Brawl-only players scattered about. XD
Mostly makes me feel bad about being being so sad about the number of potential opponents I've got. I've at least got two really good friends living nearby (3 minutes or sth), who come over to play quite a bit.
Still super jealous of people going to decently sized tourneys every other month ... :D

How did you do Toph?

Sion told us he didn't do that great but this is Sion so Im not sure what that means.
Sion got 4th and obliterated me in losers LOL, I got 5th haha. I was kind of disappointed at the time but looking back I did ok.

And thanks Xyzz :p

Btw I was just reading old 2008 posts in the Fox forums for nostalgia's sake. I forgot that Jungle used to post in there super frequently back then. I don't think I even knew who he was back then (well, I started playing smash in 2008)

SAO is sub par, the story went down hill once the actually story started. I am so disappointed how so much potenial that could have happened from not skipping to floor 74.. This happened when i read the light novel. Still, i enjoy the nostalgia i get from how i used to play MMOs

The charm disappeared the moment the game got cleared on floor 75... NOTHING MUCH HAPPENED since we started on floor 74

The side stories seriously saved the anime from being bad

[FONT=&quot]☯ Didn't ask about peoples opinions on SAO. -_-; [FONT=&quot]★[/FONT][/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]☯ Manly, because I already know what the answers are going to be whether it's positive or negative. I just want to know why are the opinions jacked up to a tier of Death Note opinions... I guess I shouldn't have asked. ._. [FONT=&quot]★[/FONT][/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]☯ Tried to get some data, didn't want to start a ****storm, those never end well and near every anime site I go to has them when SAO is discussed. >.< [FONT=&quot]★[/FONT][/FONT]

It's because it was hyped like crazy. All the LN readers basically said that it was great, so the anime-only viewers either got what they expected or don't see why people liked SAO.

Honestly, I'd give SAO's adaptation a low 8 so far. It doesn't help that the first arc was written the way it was and that Fairy Dance is one of my least favorites. Plus I didn't like how it was directed and the inconsistent budget. I really liked the LN and I'm going to judge the anime harshly because of that.

And Ussi, sounds like you should just read SAO Progressive when that's being translated.

And i'm still reading the LN too.. Just with the anime

Minato do you read LNs in Japanese or translated?

Also is "low 8" harsh? Isn't 8 = 8/10?
I can't read it raw since my Japanese isn't good enough. I want to slowly go through some LNs once I start picking it up again.

And low 8 as in decimals points. So 8.2 or whatever. lol

He doesn't mean literally rate it an 8.2 on MAL. He just says that it would be on the lower end of the 8-ranking out of 10, since giving a integer is quite restrictive when truly judging a series.

Yeah, just 10 integers is sooo restrictive... 8.2 would be a high'ish 8 for me, though. I'll round everything from 7.5 to 8.5 to an eight if I don't get to put decimals (:
Mentally I usually give out .33 steps, most annoying is when I can't decide between .66 of the lower and .33 of the higher number :x

I prefer to use the DDR ranking system. Marvelous, Perfect, Great, Good, Almost, Miss.

That works, right?

Not really sure why Marvelous is above Perfect, but blame them, not me.
