Looking good, put a (post number 282*) comment under InterimOfZeal's thread. That's where we're updating/working on modifying the thread. Later when we're done/whenever Izzy wants to he can update the first post.

Yeah. But some others are LOADED with weird things. A Lucario user apparently can check frames and has this Uber-list. We seem kind of disorganized. Sonic needs more tricks. I especially want to examine Nairs and Fairs properties. Need an Action Replay or something.

I have no way to get frame data. Izzy's been wanting to get stuff too I believe but it's not something I want to do without an action replay. I REALLY want to examine Hitboxes.

I'll make some inquiries as well. I know some guy who was trying to compete with M2k in obtaining frame data or something. Either of them had some different kind of way of doing it. I can't recall the actual situation.

Alright, after hearing back from the lucas frame guide user, Magus420 is the most knowledgeable on this. I'm kinda afraid now to give it a shot without getting flammed by someone who actually knows what they are doing. Basically... the problem with recording on slower speeds in Brawl is that they added frames to make the animation look smoother.... so yeah... the most reliable way is with capture card(possibly usb device, need to get that confirmed) and thes programs that help you mess with the video so that it's correct for counting: VirtualDub.

change the title to something more obvious for a "useful threads" link

@.@ srsly there were like 3-5 threads recently of people either looking for tips to play Sonic or with information that was kinda... common knowledge.

[edit]
OHH OR YOU CAN ADD
"**NEW SONICS CHECK THIS FIRST**" in the title lol

It's pretty, but the dumber newbies aren't gonna think "hey, i should check this out before i make a stupid thread about how i can't kill" etc.

It's more like
"Thread index zone.

wut is .. thread... index? big word.

???

'hey guys i found a new technique with Sonic! when u charge downb u press jump or attack and u do a spindash except u go up!!!'

"

idiot-friendly title please ;d

It's a placeholder until I think of something better. I felt that if I put something like "Thread Index Zone - Sonic Resource Center" I'd be copying ZSS boards.

I know it's in the video thread, but I think you should add Sonic Orochi's video guide to this thread.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QMRTsGfy0c

If I was a newbie Sonic player looking for a guide, searching the video thread for a guide wouldn't exactly be on the top of my list.
