-'''GameFAQs''' is a gaming website that features FAQs, walkthroughs, reviews and message boards for thousands of video games, including ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee|Melee]]'', and ''[[Brawl]]''. [[Smashers]] usually use GameFAQs to refer exclusively to its Melee message board and the community that has grown around it. Although [[Smash World Forums]] is the center of the competitive Smash community, the world's top [[Home-Run Contest]] and [[Target Test]] all post their results on GameFAQs, and many experienced players frequent the boards as well, such as {{Sm|Mew2King}}, {{Sm|Gimpyfish}}, and {{Sm|Ally}}.
+'''GameFAQs''' is a gaming website that features FAQs, walkthroughs, reviews, message boards, and numerous other features for thousands of video games, including the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series.
+[[Smashers]] usually use GameFAQs to refer exclusively to its message boards for ''Melee'' and ''Brawl'' and the community that grew around both. Although [[Smash World Forums]] eclipses these forums in popularity and membership, the GameFAQs boards still hold niche appeal, primarily for smashers who are interested in records and strategies for [[Stadium]] events. In addition, some experienced players, including {{Sm|Mew2King}}, {{Sm|Gimpyfish}}, and {{Sm|Ally}}, frequent the boards.
 == Compendium of Smash Knowledge ==
-Usually abbreviated '''CoSK''', the Compendium is a sticky topic on the ''Melee'' board at GameFAQs that contains guides and statistics meant to help novices better understand the competitive community; despite being stickied and being one of the most visited topics on the ''Melee'' board, the guide is considered to be relatively outdated, with some incorrect information found in some posts.

+==Melee Back Mansion==
+During the days when the GameFAQs boards had more activity in them, the smasher {{Sm|Hylian}} formed the '''Melee Back Mansion''' in order to allow more esteemed smashers discuss the game. A take on the [[Melee Back Room]] of the Smash World Forums, the board was ultimately shut down shortly before the release of ''Brawl''. Hylian later created a "Brawl Back Mansion" for the ''Brawl'' forums, but this forum was later closed down as well.
