Right I figured the point was to ctrl+f through the posts but just to be fair I will type it exactly as in the OP... :))) I am going to attend Delta Upsilon VII on April 30th

I am going to attend Delta Upsilon VII if there are spots left... Also my friend Gimmah who does not yet have a SmashBoards account wants to come. If there are spots left...

I think I'm going to show up around 5:00PM, I have cycling I have to do today, unfortunately.

The way I have found that's easiest in training is spot dodge, wait a fraction of a second, tap control stick, wait a smaller fraction of a second, then c-downd and c-up as quickly as you can. I get about: 5% BDACUS 10% Gatling 85% Failure...

How late is it expected to go this Friday? Edit: Scratch that, read the op.

I suppose if MK had a % lead he could just plank for ever, since Falco can't do much about it. But I've never seen an MK player plank for 7:30 before. I think that would count as stalling, even if planking isn't banned per se. Not sure on that one.

What time?

That's why I specified. LG rules aren't standard. I was just trying to point out that saying things such as "ban characters with no negative matchups" doesn't work by itself. Although I guess you can say "ban characters with no negative matchups based on SBR rules." But if you look at the...

I agree with that! As long as parties agree. But that's not objective, unbiased criteria, which is what I am arguing is impossible. Rather measured discussion and consensus (or as close to consensus as possible) is the best way. So in my opinion, you can't develop "criteria" to judge the...

No, you're missing something. The problem is that even if you create universal ban criteria, you will ALREADY KNOW as you are creating them whether or not they will ban the current Meta Knight. And because of this, depending on who is developing these criteria, they will be biased, even if...

So ... is this going down Friday afternoon now? :)

It's retroactive because you can choose ban criteria that would result in a ban or ban criteria that would not. So establishing criteria based on facts already known achieves nothing since you could engineer the criteria to achieve your aims. Absurd example: Any character with Mach Tornado...

It was fun playing / hanging out with / meeting you guys. Next time I enter a tournament (likely in May) I will be well prepared and put up a better peformance.

All CPU's read your button input. Level 9's just react in ways that make it really obvious. They still somehow suck, and will walk right into charged smashes. But playing CPU's has definitely helped me with things that are purely techincal and not strategic. I usually just play level 3's...
