This doesn't prove that the chance isn't smaller when you dash correctly.Nice try, but tripping is random. This has been irrefutably proven to me by a video showing three marios in practice mode, all controlled simultaneously by the same player, all tripping at random times. If this were true, they would all trip at the same time because they would all exceed their threshold together, being controlled by the same movements.
There can be multiple causes to tripping., one of them being random chance.gnuf said:I WANT EVERYONE TO READ THIS.
Lucas can trip people with his down A move. not down smash. you do it 2-3 times fast it will trip them.
So tripping is not random!

Wouldn't that be parallel to the ground?Now then, as long as you dash perfectly perpendicular to the ground,
in order to truly test this, you need to make sure its a true 90 degree angle.This doesn't prove that the chance isn't smaller when you dash correctly.
Not saying I buy it yet, but you can't use this logic to discredit the theory.

Yes, well, we need testing with all control types for it to mean much anyhow.in order to truly test this, you need to make sure its a true 90 degree angle.
in order to test that, you need a machine, or some way to perfectly measure a protactor in there, human error is too much of a factor to truly test that theory
you contend that tripping is not completely random because there is no evidence that outright supports it.I still dont think its completely random.
For people that say that its random because they trip at the beginning of the match, that doesn't mean anything. No one ever said what the % of tripping was at the beginning of the match so maybe it has a way better chance than .01% maybe DK has a higher percent then... lets say Pikachu. Therefore the DK might trip at the beginning of the match while Pikachu takes longer to trip.
People saying that the Wii mote disproves this theory, it doesn't. Like others have said, it has no C-stick so you have to make up for it somehow and this is how.
Finally people saying that AMPs tests prove nothing, they might not prove a lot, but the results still make it look like tripping isn't random. 7 out of 500 is still different than 15 out of 500. that means that you have a chance of tripping half the time you usually would if you hit the direction parallel to the ground.
Also I have a question.... if the ground goes at a slant, would you go parallel to the slant?
The difference between 7 and 15 out of 500 is almost meaningless.7 out of 500 is still different than 15 out of 500.
Time better spent doing almost anything else.Nothing is being lost by just testing things out.
He has got you there, i really don't think there is any secret to tripping, its just a little annoying easter egg type thing Sakurai put in for kicks. A lot of people just look too deeply into things xDIf this is true, then explain how the vid of 3 marios being controlled by one wavebird yielded random tripping results.
For nearly every point against the theory, there has been a counterpoint, but here's the idea:I don't get it, can someone please explain this to me in layman's terms?
