Green Blood on the Green Grass.
That's what the book should be called.
Now you're bringing me back to les mis quotes

"The blood of the martyrs will water the meadows of France"

Change one of those words to "Ridley's enemies" and we have ourselves a thread

Sums up the thread :p
More like my life xD

I dunno man. Ridley thread for me is worth ~10 years of feelz

Les Mis has like an entire generation of feelz wrapped into a single plot, like at least 40 years worth

I'm not even 40 years old

but maybe Ridley is 40 years big
Let's combine the two together then.

Les Miserables

Ridley

Les Miseridley

Someone should make a musical out of this.

Guys. Something is changing. Yesterday (or two days ago, I have no concept of time) it was Miiverse, but it seems to be spreading now. I just want to say my faith in YouTube has been restored.



Ridley is coming. It's in the air.

blood of the martyrs or something
This quote from the book is eerily similar to our plight.

“Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise.”

That should be in our revised edition. xD

Why would Ridley's reveal be an apocalypse? Wouldn't it be a great thing for Ridley-oh, I forgot, Ridley's reveal would basically cause the Smash fan base to explode.

It's the "Stylish" extension for Google Chrome (I believe it's for FireFox too if you use that.)

This is the icon for it:


Link to the extension: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stylish/fjnbnpbmkenffdnngjfgmeleoegfcffe

Once you install it, here are the theme links I use:

Black YouTube: https://userstyles.org/styles/62289/black-youtube-by-panos

Gradient / Colored Play Bar: https://userstyles.org/styles/95280/youtube-custom-colors-video-progress-bar

Hope that helps. :)

And also:

IT'S FINALLY HERE!


I'm amazed at how many people are changing opinions each day. It has to be a sign.

And then it will magically regenerate after Sakurai had basically split the Smash fanbase apart with these teases.

Hmm...

You know, sometime before Robin's reveal, the number of Robin supporters began to drastically increase. More and more people began to think that he/she would be a great (and actually possible) addition to the Smash roster. And what do you know, Robin was confirmed against all odds. I wonder if something similar is happening here with Ridley...

Smashboards will become Crashboards. /v/ will get blown the f*** out. Gamefaqs will implode. Nowhere is safe, the fallout from THE RIDPOCALYPSE will be...wait for it....too big.

I'm on Miiverse every day, and I'm happy to report that the number of Ridley supporters is growing by the day.
Almost NO ARGUMENTS about Ridley have been happening since Mid-Late July.
Something's definitely up, and I must say, it's a rather...
BIG SURPRISE!

Great to see new hype building for the Ridley army. Honestly, at this point there are so few newcomers with even a 40% chance of being playable I don't see how you can be against him. It's like Palutena prior to her inclusion, even if you didn't like her, you had to admit she was the most-likely character, so might as well expect and get used to her. Now of course our Cunning God of Death takes that spot.

Yes actually, I approved it a few weeks ago, I even wrote a little backstory to how they fell in love, it's in the last 300 pages or something.

Also I was gone watching Professional Tennis all day, which is why I haven't replied until now.

But I'm back, and I know all of you missed my shipping shenanigans. (@ AndreaAC AndreaAC )

Soulless....I can't even take a break of 20 minutes to eat without you reminding me of your shipping....sigh...enjoy your time while you can, because when I finish my damned homework....I will go after you...again.

Well, in the case of Ridley, I think Sakurai is making it more and more obvious with each tease that he's going to be in.

I wasn't convinced Ridley was in until the Prince Sablé tweet. But that was just giving it away, in my mind. Going out of their way to confirm that he's an Assist Trophy when he had such minor fan demand, and was presented the same way every other Assist Trophy was just screamed "we're not confirming Ridley isn't playable for a reason".

I'm talking about Ridley Scott. Our lord and savior Ridley is more than likely playable:troll:

Pretty much every gaming board in the history of forever will go down, hell, more like anything that has a sizable Smash Bros fanbase. Even the big social media websites like twitter and tumblr will probably have #Ridley trending. The only announcement that would possibly be even bigger is a Mewtwo announcement, although that probably has more to do with there being millions of Pokemon websites and forums.

Why would Ridley's reveal be an apocalypse?
Because "apocalypse" literally means "revelation." In this case, one of Net-shattering proportions, that I highly doubt the vast majority of the mouthbreathers populating the tubes are prepared for. A quote from Lovecraft seems appropriate:

"We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age."

Our Commander is that light. Fear the unknown! Ia! Ia! Ridley ftaghn!

I prefer "Reckoning"

Or "Ridleying".

That added a lot more depth to the term than I expected. I didn't even consider that when I brought it up!

Man for someone who supposedly never played an AC game you sure have a lot of gifs of it....
On topic: If there was a direct reveal with Ridley I would probably avoid Crashboards for a week just to make sure everything dies down
