I usually pres start to view my character's taunt, or when an explosion occurs. Do you do that? This topic is for what you saw what you didn't plan on seeing. For example, today I was playing Classic Mode, and I threw a Red Shell at Pikachu. Wehn I paused, it looked like Pikachu was riding the shell, but he was really taking damage ;) . So anything lke this happen to you? The title was inspired by the topic, You know you've been playing too much Melee when... I'll make up a list for this topic. So, to sart the list,

You know that you pause too much when...

1. You don't know what or where the Pause On/Off switch is in Vs Mode

2. You always be Peach and do a certain move ;)

3. You become addicted to pausing. Your friends freak out at you when you pause to look at your guy standing there for no reason

4. You start to see many unexpected things

5. You know what those green-explosions look like, and you can draw them perfectly

6. You buy a controller with Start being the largest button (yes, bigger than A)

7. You can stil pause when Pause is turned of in Vs Mode

8. Your Start button is worn out

Any more? Post them here! :D

You press Start to reset the match before you lose.

You pause every time your character uses a move just to see what it looks like.......

I hate it when people pause too much. My brother pauses for every little thing. It gets really annoying, and I always get distracted and die. You know you pause to much when:
-It takes over an hour to play a 5 minute time match.

You know you've pressed start too much when:

You cuss at your T.V. when in training mode because you had that perfect scene

When you know the difference between start and pause(I don't)

When 4 people are pressing start at once and the screen never changes...

You get a new level for pressing start 1 million times

35. You can't get into vs. mode (since you're only pressing start and don't move the control stick, always goes to 1-player)

36. You forget how to play the game.

37. Your joypad disintergrates in your hands as your fingers bleed as you have broken them on the start button and the blood clotting the joypad gets into the console and blows the thing up! :p Well done! :) You have killed 2 birds with one stone by accidently killing yourself and your console! :eek: Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!! :D

When you have Start Pressing flashbacks during school or when your at the mall, and just stand there in a trance thinking of your old start pressing days with all of your old systems.

You get home from a hard days work, and all you can think about is pressing the start button.

You press the start button.....With the game not even on, then wonder why the screen won't unpause.

You explain to your friends the exact chain of circuit reactions in your controller and the GCN that insue when the start button is pushed.

When you press start you make a pointing jestour at the TV and say "Now That is a Scene to Remember"

You create a Start Pressers Anonymous so you can talk to other start pushers and try to kick the habit as a group.

That should help.

You cause many people to die because you graphete the word on all the objects in life which say stop with the word start, thus many people will always cross the road and cars won't stop to drive perdestrians onto the newly coloured red tarmack roads! :D

When you have a T-Shirt with a giant PAUSE button on the front.

When you start carrying around your remote control to try to stop time.
