You guys should update the rankings.

It's super outdated now. Haha.
The Tucson rankings? How much different stuff could there be? Forward is off. Spencer becomes unranked based on his request. What else changes? Maybe putting Piman back on? No one seems to move up or down.

If you mean the Arizona rankings, I plan on making a thread either slightly before or just after the tournament on July 31st (so long as it happens).

P.S. Perhaps you can take my Falco off. I really only use Sheik in tourney in singles and very rarely Fox in doubles.

When I was still playing I was asked to be taken off but never was. Now I would be taken off by the account of inactivity.

Chubbz taken off due to inactivity. Adding Ted. Rob and Shiv should do 4/7 for the 5th/6th spot. Jackie put at #1, Chris #2. And taking off Sean. Yep, that's it.

If I were to be placed on this though I'd be way near the bottom haha. I get beaten by Chubbz now.

Yo Jane!!! Remember a ways back you asked my bro and I about Diego Sanchez and all? If not here's the link
http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?p=9044072&highlight=Diego+Sanchez#post9044072

2 funny/awesome stories.
1)A week ago, Diego Sanchez almost hit me with his truck (freakin jack ***)
2) I just met Clay Guida a bit ago at a concert. Got and autograph and took some pics =D He's a way chill guy. I told him I'd love to spar him and he laughed but said sure if we ever meet in a better enviroment he'll throw down ;) Needless to say, best concert ever!

Really? How is that ruby? care to explain why its ignorant to like the past gens versus the new ones?

Why is that Mr. Asshat hmm?
The most significant, and by far the best change is the split of physical and special attacks. Instead of having x elements counting and physical, and the rest special, they split the attacks based on what they actually did.

No more having physical Shadow Ball, or Hyper Beam, for example.

It also gave moves like Waterfall some actual significance, as well as improving pokemon with good stats but no movepool, such as gyarados, feraligatr, and azumaril.

The inclusion of pokemon abilities (RSE) further increased the depth that the game has, and added further elements to competitive play.

As for game mechanics; Running Shoes. 'Nuff said.

Don't subsitute nostalgia for what is truly a superior game.

The old-gen games are enjoyable because of their nostalgic factor. The DPPHGSS games are better in just about every way possible. ESPECIALLY HGSS which are the old games vastly revamped with vastly superior gameplay mechanics.

Ok now that you ranted making yourself look like an a$$ (as usual) I was referring to the series. I like the new games except for the fact that its the same thing they have been doing since RBY 1 bad organization trying to take over the world, uber legendarys, and 3 semi legendarys. Also the little BS side quest to lengthen the game.

The only thing that was good to me was the nature and stat mechanic added in. Otherwise I rather play smash in my spare time or League of Legends.

this is joey: man my ***** carlton will **** you up xander carlton you better bring out that samus again. dont listen to that kid you just keep being black carlton lol
Don't worry Joey I will bring the samus back out soon. Hopefully when I can get a good car and travel around. I will be in El Paso for 9 months hopefully i can see you guys.

blackknight is black?



i love black people!
Indeed I am black good sir. Used to be one of the SV boys until I left.

Just a heads up guys. You can all come over until July 30th to Forrest's house. Just give me a call an hour in advance to make sure I'm there. My number's in this thread multiple times, and I've been here for a year, so if you don't have my number (which I don't see why you wouldn't), give someone on the Tucson Rankings a call. They'll have my number most likely.

Also, I have class from 9 to 10:45 AM. Other than that, I'm free.
