[SPOILERS] I'm really good at video games!

[Bobchillingworth]

I actually had to Google what that meant :P


Anyway, setting low expectations is a long-standing tradition! But okay, I concede that pregame defeatism isn't a great way to start off.


So in the spirit of uplifting braggadocio: I know I'm l33t now 'cause I picked a civ for their starting techs

I thought you knew about Smash memes.

The documentary about Smash Bros pro players where I found out about this expression is pretty amusing, by the way. It's on youtube, the name is "The Smash Brothers" or something. Perhaps you'd find it interesting.

[GermanJoey]

I've seen that! It's pretty good!

[Bobchillingworth]

I stopped being good at Smash Bros after the N64 Red Kirby 4 lyfe.



Holy shit a 4 hour documentary about competitive Smash? Sorry porn, my next couple nights are booked

Just finished the documentary- great stuff! Really fascinating; I've known the pro community exists for years, but never had an interest in following the scene. Still don't, but the community those guys built definitely resonated with me- both with my experience with competitive debate back in the mists of time and what we're doing here now with our own decade-old game.

So... who at RB is which professional smasher?

[Bobchillingworth]

Ken has to be Sulla. Or Krill, now that I think of it. Besides that, uh.... pass :P

[Krill]

I don't even know Smash has a professional scene.

So, like, what's the delay now? I don't want to be rude, mainly because I like Brick, but can we please start soon, especially if the map is finished as of yesterday?
