I will update this regularly, so keep watching. Please submit anything you think should be in here.

:o creepy I put it in just before I read your post, and thanks

I believe the thread was called

"Awesome"

But yeah :D Thanks for rebooting this.

I think this is now up to date, but please tell me if I missed anything.

Cool stuff.

It would be a lot more convenient if the ones with a video had it so that you could just click the word "Video" for a link to the video. Someone bumped the ancient Forsaken Recovery thread since they had trouble finding it.

That's a great idea, I'll start looking for them.

Edit: Thanks, the videos are all linked, if anything should be added let me know.

Very awesome compilation n00b.

totally worthy of the sticky it has recieved.

Hey, do you wanna add the stage discussion here?

Thanks for reminding me, I'm in the middle of a big update (mostly on notepad) which should be done soon and I'll be sure to link your thread and a few other useful ones here.

can you please post a link to my grab release thread.

This is very nicely done. Thanks for the info. Captain Falcon is not as terrible as the world deems him to be.

Sort of. Sorry about that, I'm not planning on being on here as much as I was a few months ago, but I can at least put some new stuff in. Does anyone have any suggestions?

This needs to be updated ASAP. There's been a lot more Falcon AT's/Guides/Combo Videos since this was last updated. Also, Lord Helmet has a much improved version of the Falcon Boards' Compendium. Featuring Combo Videos, Advanced Techniques and Information Threads.
