Xander: I didn't know you won because I don't remember haha.

Jeff: Same goes for me, I have one for you if you'd like to trade for a dif copy.

Everyone else: Smash is happening tonight. Another round robin, also. Sadly, I have to work at 5:30 but i should be off by 8-9 which is when it usually picks up anyway.
I'm pretty sure both Jade and Xander will be there.

I want to have all 3 versions (actually I want PAL too, but I doubt I'll be able to find any PAL copies haha). I just wanna test stuff that works or doesn't work in each version. I'm just interested in doing random tests and stuff I guess haha

what doesn't make sense Johnny?

I had to edit that post because I also said that they should just trade copies just as Ben did, but dial-up screwed me making the post come later.

Ben mains Sheik, Sheik is a ninja, Ben ninja'd my post, Ben Sheik'd me.

Chris hasn't updated the rankings, so:

1. GG7
2. Jetfour
3. Silly Kyle
4. OkamiBW
5. Rubyiris
6. Shivknight
7. Piman
8. Ninjade
9. Cooper
10. Tipper
11. Rusty (Reinstated since he's trying to be more active.)
12. Jane
13. Stretchnutz
14. Book

Spencer, Tommy, and Ryan are dropped due to quitting melee, and, or inability to make it to the weeklies.

OkamiBW over Rubyiris: I still think I'm better than him, but the results speak for themselves. I'm coming for you!

Silly Kyle over OkamiBW: Okami beat him at the last weekly, but I still believe Kyle's a better player. Okami will move up if he wins again, or something.

Piman over Cooper and Jade: This is half my opinion, and half the fact that he beat you two at the weekly. Jade and Pimans a tossup, but I feel that Pimans more solid than Cooper at the moment. The biggest thing is that Piman has less glaring bad habits than Cooper, and that Piman does better vs better players than Cooper does. If Cooper was a little more open to critique and had better management of his temper, I think he'd move up to just under Shiv.

Jade's probably better than Piman, and maybe on par with Shiv, but he needs to work on his confidence, and take the game a little more seriously. If he did, I wouldn't be surprised if he put me at risk for my spot.

Putting Rusty just below Tipper. I'm a little biased and think Rusty is about as good as Shiv and Jade, but he's been inactive, so I'll just let him tear through the rankings until he's at where I think he is if he decides to play more. :p

Chris does better against better players than Jackie, places better when they both enter the monthlies, and has more experience, but Jackie and Chris is like you and Coop. Jackie knows Chris so well that he's very good at playing to specifically counter Chris. He's also good at infuriating Chris and making him play far worse than his norm, just like you do to Coop when you rest him 3 times a match.

Most the time who they lose to is the same person so it all becomes bracket dependent.

We haven't seen Chris vs Jackie for real at a monthly in a real long time. Not arguing either side, just pointing it out.

They're close enough anyways but Chris might be more solid overall due to consistently sticking with Falcon and not switching between the whole cast like Jackie.

Just as an fyi, I have no service at the moment. Cricket changed how they go about when you pay half the bill at one time, and half the other, and cut my service off for a week, when they usually wouldn't.

Normally they're supposed to keep your service on if your amount owed is under a certain amount (Which we are.) but I guess that changed, like, THIS month. :\

@Jade: I'm definitely down. I'm actually currently making room on my HDD for recording, and separating yours, Coopers, and Pimans footage since the three of you have been asking me for critique. I'm also currently uploading matches of you vs my Marth. LMK if you want any of your sets vs Cooper up. I'm not going to upload our earlier sets of spacies vs Jiggs since you didn't uthrow rest, and my puff game was generally not as good as it is now that I've gotten to play with you more.
