nealdt is an American casual smasher and Smashboards moderator. He joined the Smash community in July of 2004 and for two years attended a number of tournaments throughout California; his location in the middle of the state gave him easy drives to a number of regular tournaments in the southern and northern portions of the state, and he quickly became known for his friendly and easy-going nature.
Neal released two Ice Climbers tutorial videos, Double Vision and Avalanche, in late 2005. The videos were very well received for their clear illustrations of advanced Ice Climbers techniques that many in the community had never seen, thanks to the relative obscurity of the character. The videos prompted a miniature explosion of interest in the Ice Climbers and continue to be a discussion point to this day.
After graduating from college in 2006, nealdt gave up on competetive Smash play and moved towards a support and leadership role in the community. He ran two large tournaments (the Champ Combo series) in early 2006 and later that year helped run Zero Challenge; beyond planning, setup, transportation, and housing, Neal was wholly responsible for running the tournament brackets himself. Shortly thereafter he was made moderator of the Pacific West regional forum and his name became fairly well known throughout the community as a respected tournament host.
Neal is returning to school in Fall 2007 to pursue a mathematics teaching credential.
Cort makes him gag.
