[[Image:Randallmorrison.jpg|100px|left]] {{User_admin}}
Hiya! I'm [[RJM|Randall]], a [[Special:Listadmins|Sysop]] here at [[SmashWiki]] and a dedicated article writer/cleaner-upper in the field of [[tournament]] and [[smash community|community]]-related editing. In addition to tying together a lot of community history through the [[:Category:Smashers]] portal, I also wrote the bulk of the [[Luigi (SSBM)]] article and threw together [[SmashWiki: Smasher Project]], which should effectively standardize all [[smasher]] article formatting and help cleanup the official SmashWiki representation of competitors worldwide.
The quote at the top of my page reflects my sentiment about an executive decisions that occurred without consulting SmashWiki community members regarding a sudden and unexpected merge with the Super Smash Bros. Wikia. The mess caused by this action inspired an additional project located at [[SmashWiki:Post-Merge Cleanup]] in an attempt to restore some order, as there was clearly not a lot of foresight put into the ramifications of the merge.
As a sysop here, I am capable of the base administrative tasks such as protecting sensitive pages from reckless editing, banning repeat vandals and deleting unnecessary pages, but I'm also a good person to ask questions about the wiki, how to improve an article and a wide variety of the technical nuances that make this encyclopedia an effective media presentation of smash history. If you have ''any'' questions at all, I will answer them if I can and if I happened to be responsible for '''deleting''' a page that you have created, I will happily explain why if you leave a note on my [[User talk:Randall00|talk page]]. Though for the record, I respond better to polite inquiries than I do to "WTFYOUDELETEMYPAGEIH8U!!!"
I've also opted to use this userpage space to maintain a series of Smash-related lists that I've been trying to keep straight in my head forever. It includes the kinds of things that smashers always want to tell other smashers but nobody wants to hear, such as a list of primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary, etc. characters that I play. Again, generally people don't care if [[Dr. Mario]] is your fourteenth-best character, but for posterity I like to keep track of my own progress in learning the game as a whole and I'm a numbers person, so I like tracking arbitrary top 10 lists and meaningless statistics. Besides, on occasion I will offhandedly mention how [[Pikachu]] is my second worst character and people will almost always ask who's the worst. Well, here's the place to find out. Mostly these lists will be used by me for my own reference and will change subtlely over time, but if you find yourself entertained by them, I can't very well tell you not to read them--but I warn you...it ''is'' a waste of your time.
== Arbitrary [[RJM]] Lists & Statistics ==
=== Strongest SSBM Characters ===
<small>This list documents all [[character]]s in [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] listed in the order in which I am best capable of playing them. However, the list only reflects my skill level within the scope of potential that the character possesses. For example, although I'm sure my [[Link]] could defeat my [[Young Link]] in an actual match pitted against one another, I have a better understanding of Young Link and the tools he possesses and he therefore appears higher on the list. </small>
#[[Luigi]]
#[[Young Link]]
#[[Fox]]

=== Strongest SSB Characters ===
<small>This list documents all [[character]]s in [[Super Smash Bros.]] (N64) listed in the order in which I am best capable of playing them. My knowledge of the competitive game is not as comprehensive as I once thought it was and since it's rather fallen out of fashion, the list may or may not be concurrent with my current 64 Smash abilities. </small>
#[[Luigi]]
#[[Fox]]
#[[Captain Falcon]]
#[[Mario]]
#[[Ness]]
#[[Kirby]]
#[[Jigglypuff]]
#[[Pikachu]]
#[[Yoshi]]
#[[Link]]
#[[Samus]]
#[[Donkey Kong]]
=== Favourite Smashers ===
<small>A list of my favourite competitive [[smasher]]s, based on what limited knowledge and exposure to video footage I have had. These are divided by [[character]]-specific performances and arranged into mini Top ''x'' lists to include all those that I feel are noteworthy for others who are interested in analyzing the high-end game. </small>

=== Luigi Match-Ups - As Far As I Know ===
My running list of Luigi matchups in order from most difficult to least. Gotta keep a tally on these things, you know.
#[[Peach]]
#[[Samus]]
#[[Sheik]]
#[[Falco]]
#[[Captain Falcon]]
#[[Ganondorf]]
#[[Fox]]
#[[Jigglypuff]]
#[[Marth]]
#[[Ice Climbers]]
#[[Zelda]]
#[[Dr. Mario]]
#[[Pikachu]]
#[[Mario]]
#[[Link]]
#[[Ness]]
#[[Luigi]]
#[[Mr. Game & Watch]]
#[[Roy]]
#[[Bowser]]
#[[Donkey Kong]]
#[[Kirby]]
#[[Yoshi]]
#[[Young Link]]
#[[Pichu]]
#[[Mewtwo]]
=== Luigi Match-Ups - As Far As I Can Actually Play ===
Whereas the above list reflects my opinion on how Luigi as a character stands up at the top level of play against other characters, this list reflects how ''my'' Luigi fairs against the highest level of competition that ''I'' face on a regular basis. In other words, the top of this list reflects the character that I have the most difficult time fighting (Peach) and descends down to Donkey Kong, who I can beat pretty reliably.
#[[Samus]]
#[[Peach]]
#[[Sheik]]
#[[Falco]]
#[[Ganondorf]]
#[[Ice Climbers]]
#[[Jigglypuff]]
#[[Pikachu]]
#[[Captain Falcon]]
#[[Mr. Game & Watch]]
#[[Fox]]
#[[Zelda]]
#[[Marth]]
#[[Pichu]]
#[[Roy]]
#[[Link]]
#[[Ness]]
#[[Luigi]]
#[[Dr. Mario]]
#[[Mario]]
#[[Young Link]]
#[[Bowser]]
#[[Kirby]]
#[[Yoshi]]
#[[Mewtwo]]
#[[Donkey Kong]]
===SSBB Observations===
''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' will forever live as the game that had the highest expectations and failed to deliver. It is a slow, commercialized, non-competitive and ''easy'' party platformer.
''[[Melee]]'' remains the greatest game ever made. 
=== SSBB Speculations ===
<small>An archive of my pre-release speculations about ''Brawl'' and the result of those speculations that may or may not have manifested themselves since.</small>
====Suspected Roster Cuts====
*'''[[Sheik]]''' - Sheik is an Ocarina of Time character and her time is up; she/it doesn't even appear in Twilight Princess and was really just a sloppy half-character to begin with. <font color=red>''WTF!!''</font>
*'''[[Young Link]]''' - Again, just not really as relevant to the Nintendo universe as he once was and being a rather lazy clone of his older self, there's no reason to assume that he won't be dropped from Brawl. <font color=red>''TOONED? WTF?''</font>
*'''[[Dr. Mario]]''' - As much as I love the doctor, I think he's going to clone heaven, too. That said, I don't think that being a clone is criteria for deletion from the Smash roster, though. I don't think we'll lose [[Ganondorf]] or [[Falco]], and I'm a little on the fence about [[Roy]].
*'''[[Roy]]''' - I think it's more likely that Roy is going to be replaced by a different Fire Emblem character, which I guess counts as a removal, but still fills the empty slot. <font color=red>''CUT''</font>
*'''[[Mewtwo]]''' - We may or may not see this cat again, I'm not sure what to think. I'd rather see Mewtwo again than some crapass new monster from the "Sapphire Version" or whatever gem they've named the latest catalog of 10,000 new creatures. He's certainly more likely to return than SOME pokemon I can think of. <font color=red>''CUT''</font>
*'''[[Pichu]]''' - Uh, yeah. <font color=red>''CUT''</font>
*'''[[Ness]]''' - In light of [[Lucas]]'s highly unimaginative palette swap of Ness's moves from previous games, it leaves me with a feeling of disgust to read ''"There’s a character named Ness who has appeared in the Smash Bros. series up until now..."'' right off the [[DOJO]]. You're replacing Ness, the Earthbound hero, with some half-assed photocopies version from the Japan-only Mother 3...what the hell!? <font color=red>''SAVED (phew!)''</font>
====Suspected Roster Additions====
*'''Ridley''' - A villainous figure from the [[Metroid (universe)|Metroid]] series. Considering he made an appearance in the SSBM intro video in Smash-proportioned renderings, I'd say he's a likely candidate. <font color=red>''BOSS''</font>
*'''Little Mac''' - From Mike Tyson's Punch-Out, the little boxer who could most certainly belongs among Nintendo's All-stars. <font color=red>''TROPHIED''</font>
====My Lofty Character Wishlist====
<small>While above are my actual predictions, this is how it would go down if I was in charge of choosing the new characters. I can dream, can't I?</small>
*'''Ridley''' - ''Metroid (NES)''
*'''Little Mac''' - ''Mike Tyson's Punch-Out! (NES)''
*'''Captain Olimar''' - ''Pikmin (GCN)''
*'''[[Toad]]''' - ''Super Mario Bros. (NES)''
*'''Slippy Toad''' - ''StarFox (SNES)''
*'''Pico''' - ''F-Zero (SNES)''
*'''Paula''' - ''EarthBound (SNES)''
*'''Pauline''' - ''Donkey Kong (NES)''
*'''Mii''' - ''Wii Channels (Wii)''
*'''Marina Lightyears''' - ''Mischief Makers (N64)''
There's room for some variation, too. Princess Daisy is one that I wouldn't mind seeing, but I'd sooner have Pauline over her. Pico from F-Zero would be good just to give Captain Falcon some more franchise representation, but I wouldn't be opposed to other notable pilots either. The same applies to Slippy Toad. Slippy tends to be the most loathed of all StarFox characters, but I still think he'd be an excellent brawler. But then again, maybe Star Wolf is a better addition from that series.
Paula from Earthbound is a mighty friendly looking PSI master that I feel would be a good addition, although Poo would be equally welcome in my imaginary roster. The "Mii" character would have to be a baseset of moves that you could apply to your own Mii. If it had a certain degree of customizable moveset templates or something that would be even better. In case you couldn't tell though, these wishes are arranged in the order in which they are most likely to actually occur.
Oh and if you haven't played Mischief Makers but enjoy Smash, go out and play it. Marina Lightyears is so incredibly well suited for the Smash physics engine that you'll surely enjoy the game and will no doubt have a hard time resisting the temptation to dash-dance repeatedly at the end of the boss fights. Mindgames, son!
:''Incidentally, a number of players are now discovering '''Gunstar Heroes''' on [[Wii]] virtual console, an old TurboGrafx-16 title from Treasure (the "Mischeif Makers Makers"). For those who enjoy Smash and Gunstar Heroes alike, my recommendation goes double for you!''
=== Valuable Smash Quotes ===
*"If I ever become a cop or something, I'm going to have a huge advantage because I know jumping up and down makes you shoot your gun faster."

*[http://www.et-cet-era.ca Et cetera]
:A personal home page that I have been running for about ten years now; it is also presented in a MediaWiki platform, though stylistically quite a bit different from this one. I describe the content as self-explanatory, in that "et cetera" is used to describe an extension of "more of the same" in reference to what list precedes it—and since my page is completely free form, stream-of-consciousness style content, the story behind the name frees me of any creative burdens associated with inhibiting what I choose to put there. If that makes sense at all.
*[http://www.proimpact.ca ProImpact.ca]
:The main hub of information for the [[Central Canada Smash Circuit]] and the largest smash-related web project I've undertaken thus far (toppling even the mighty SmashWiki]]). The website hosts win-loss statistics, media and tournament information for players across central Canada and ocasionally a litle bit beyond.
I appear on the internet in a wide variety of other forms and usually under the same user name. I have pretty active participation in all the trendy social networking sites like Facebook and the considerably-more-dreadful myspace. If you dig deep enough, you'll probably even find a bunch of instrumental guitar tracks I recorded for a couple of my own CDs back in the day, but that's not really going to apply to smash until I learn the squealin' speed rock guitar solo from [[Mute City]].

Introduction

Randallmorrison.jpg
SmashAdminMop.png Warning!
This user is a Sysop and has t3h ph1re!

Hiya! I'm Randall, a Sysop here at SmashWiki and a dedicated article writer/cleaner-upper in the field of tournament and community-related editing. In addition to tying together a lot of community history through the Category:Smashers portal, I also wrote the bulk of the Luigi (SSBM) article and threw together SmashWiki: Smasher Project, which should effectively standardize all smasher article formatting and help cleanup the official SmashWiki representation of competitors worldwide.

The quote at the top of my page reflects my sentiment about an executive decisions that occurred without consulting SmashWiki community members regarding a sudden and unexpected merge with the Super Smash Bros. Wikia. The mess caused by this action inspired an additional project located at SmashWiki:Post-Merge Cleanup in an attempt to restore some order, as there was clearly not a lot of foresight put into the ramifications of the merge.

As a sysop here, I am capable of the base administrative tasks such as protecting sensitive pages from reckless editing, banning repeat vandals and deleting unnecessary pages, but I'm also a good person to ask questions about the wiki, how to improve an article and a wide variety of the technical nuances that make this encyclopedia an effective media presentation of smash history. If you have any questions at all, I will answer them if I can and if I happened to be responsible for deleting a page that you have created, I will happily explain why if you leave a note on my talk page. Though for the record, I respond better to polite inquiries than I do to "WTFYOUDELETEMYPAGEIH8U!!!"

I've also opted to use this userpage space to maintain a series of Smash-related lists that I've been trying to keep straight in my head forever. It includes the kinds of things that smashers always want to tell other smashers but nobody wants to hear, such as a list of primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary, etc. characters that I play. Again, generally people don't care if Dr. Mario is your fourteenth-best character, but for posterity I like to keep track of my own progress in learning the game as a whole and I'm a numbers person, so I like tracking arbitrary top 10 lists and meaningless statistics. Besides, on occasion I will offhandedly mention how Pikachu is my second worst character and people will almost always ask who's the worst. Well, here's the place to find out. Mostly these lists will be used by me for my own reference and will change subtlely over time, but if you find yourself entertained by them, I can't very well tell you not to read them--but I warn you...it is a waste of your time.


Arbitrary RJM Lists & Statistics

Strongest SSBM Characters

This list documents all characters in Super Smash Bros. Melee listed in the order in which I am best capable of playing them. However, the list only reflects my skill level within the scope of potential that the character possesses. For example, although I'm sure my Link could defeat my Young Link in an actual match pitted against one another, I have a better understanding of Young Link and the tools he possesses and he therefore appears higher on the list.

  1. Luigi
  2. Young Link
  3. Fox
  4. Mario
  5. Ice Climbers
  6. Dr. Mario
  7. Ganondorf
  8. Ness
  9. Falco
  10. Link
  11. Marth
  12. Roy
  13. Peach
  14. Bowser
  15. Mr. Game & Watch
  16. Captain Falcon
  17. Yoshi
  18. Zelda
  19. Jigglypuff
  20. Pichu
  21. Kirby
  22. Mewtwo
  23. Pikachu
  24. Samus
  25. Sheik
  26. Donkey Kong

Strongest SSB Characters

This list documents all characters in Super Smash Bros. (N64) listed in the order in which I am best capable of playing them. My knowledge of the competitive game is not as comprehensive as I once thought it was and since it's rather fallen out of fashion, the list may or may not be concurrent with my current 64 Smash abilities.

  1. Luigi
  2. Fox
  3. Captain Falcon
  4. Mario
  5. Ness
  6. Kirby
  7. Jigglypuff
  8. Pikachu
  9. Yoshi
  10. Link
  11. Samus
  12. Donkey Kong

Favourite Smashers

Luigi Match-Ups - As Far As I Know

My running list of Luigi matchups in order from most difficult to least. Gotta keep a tally on these things, you know.

  2. Samus
  3. Sheik
  4. Falco
  5. Captain Falcon
  6. Ganondorf

Luigi Match-Ups - As Far As I Can Actually Play

Whereas the above list reflects my opinion on how Luigi as a character stands up at the top level of play against other characters, this list reflects how my Luigi fairs against the highest level of competition that I face on a regular basis. In other words, the top of this list reflects the character that I have the most difficult time fighting (Peach) and descends down to Donkey Kong, who I can beat pretty reliably.

  1. Samus
  2. Peach
  3. Sheik
  4. Falco
  5. Ganondorf
  6. Ice Climbers
  7. Jigglypuff
  8. Pikachu
  9. Captain Falcon
  10. Mr. Game & Watch
  11. Fox
  12. Zelda
  13. Marth
  14. Pichu
  15. Roy
  16. Link
  17. Ness
  18. Luigi
  19. Dr. Mario
  20. Mario
  21. Young Link
  22. Bowser
  23. Kirby
  24. Yoshi
  25. Mewtwo
  26. Donkey Kong

SSBB Observations

Super Smash Bros. Brawl will forever live as the game that had the highest expectations and failed to deliver. It is a slow, commercialized, non-competitive and easy party platformer.

Melee remains the greatest game ever made.

SSBB Speculations

An archive of my pre-release speculations about Brawl and the result of those speculations that may or may not have manifested themselves since.

Suspected Roster Cuts

  • Sheik - Sheik is an Ocarina of Time character and her time is up; she/it doesn't even appear in Twilight Princess and was really just a sloppy half-character to begin with. WTF!!
  • Young Link - Again, just not really as relevant to the Nintendo universe as he once was and being a rather lazy clone of his older self, there's no reason to assume that he won't be dropped from Brawl. TOONED? WTF?
  • Dr. Mario - As much as I love the doctor, I think he's going to clone heaven, too. That said, I don't think that being a clone is criteria for deletion from the Smash roster, though. I don't think we'll lose Ganondorf or Falco, and I'm a little on the fence about Roy.
  • Roy - I think it's more likely that Roy is going to be replaced by a different Fire Emblem character, which I guess counts as a removal, but still fills the empty slot. CUT
  • Mewtwo - We may or may not see this cat again, I'm not sure what to think. I'd rather see Mewtwo again than some crapass new monster from the "Sapphire Version" or whatever gem they've named the latest catalog of 10,000 new creatures. He's certainly more likely to return than SOME pokemon I can think of. CUT
  • Pichu - Uh, yeah. CUT
  • Ness - In light of Lucas's highly unimaginative palette swap of Ness's moves from previous games, it leaves me with a feeling of disgust to read "There’s a character named Ness who has appeared in the Smash Bros. series up until now..." right off the DOJO. You're replacing Ness, the Earthbound hero, with some half-assed photocopies version from the Japan-only Mother 3...what the hell!? SAVED (phew!)

Suspected Roster Additions

  • Ridley - A villainous figure from the Metroid series. Considering he made an appearance in the SSBM intro video in Smash-proportioned renderings, I'd say he's a likely candidate. BOSS
  • Little Mac - From Mike Tyson's Punch-Out, the little boxer who could most certainly belongs among Nintendo's All-stars. TROPHIED

My Lofty Character Wishlist

While above are my actual predictions, this is how it would go down if I was in charge of choosing the new characters. I can dream, can't I?

  • Ridley - Metroid (NES)
  • Little Mac - Mike Tyson's Punch-Out! (NES)
  • Captain Olimar - Pikmin (GCN)
  • Toad - Super Mario Bros. (NES)
  • Slippy Toad - StarFox (SNES)
  • Pico - F-Zero (SNES)
  • Paula - EarthBound (SNES)
  • Pauline - Donkey Kong (NES)
  • Mii - Wii Channels (Wii)
  • Marina Lightyears - Mischief Makers (N64)

There's room for some variation, too. Princess Daisy is one that I wouldn't mind seeing, but I'd sooner have Pauline over her. Pico from F-Zero would be good just to give Captain Falcon some more franchise representation, but I wouldn't be opposed to other notable pilots either. The same applies to Slippy Toad. Slippy tends to be the most loathed of all StarFox characters, but I still think he'd be an excellent brawler. But then again, maybe Star Wolf is a better addition from that series.

Paula from Earthbound is a mighty friendly looking PSI master that I feel would be a good addition, although Poo would be equally welcome in my imaginary roster. The "Mii" character would have to be a baseset of moves that you could apply to your own Mii. If it had a certain degree of customizable moveset templates or something that would be even better. In case you couldn't tell though, these wishes are arranged in the order in which they are most likely to actually occur.

Oh and if you haven't played Mischief Makers but enjoy Smash, go out and play it. Marina Lightyears is so incredibly well suited for the Smash physics engine that you'll surely enjoy the game and will no doubt have a hard time resisting the temptation to dash-dance repeatedly at the end of the boss fights. Mindgames, son!

Incidentally, a number of players are now discovering Gunstar Heroes on Wii virtual console, an old TurboGrafx-16 title from Treasure (the "Mischeif Makers Makers"). For those who enjoy Smash and Gunstar Heroes alike, my recommendation goes double for you!

Other Web Activity

A personal home page that I have been running for about ten years now; it is also presented in a MediaWiki platform, though stylistically quite a bit different from this one. I describe the content as self-explanatory, in that "et cetera" is used to describe an extension of "more of the same" in reference to what list precedes it—and since my page is completely free form, stream-of-consciousness style content, the story behind the name frees me of any creative burdens associated with inhibiting what I choose to put there. If that makes sense at all.
The main hub of information for the Central Canada Smash Circuit and the largest smash-related web project I've undertaken thus far (toppling even the mighty SmashWiki]]). The website hosts win-loss statistics, media and tournament information for players across central Canada and ocasionally a litle bit beyond.

I appear on the internet in a wide variety of other forms and usually under the same user name. I have pretty active participation in all the trendy social networking sites like Facebook and the considerably-more-dreadful myspace. If you dig deep enough, you'll probably even find a bunch of instrumental guitar tracks I recorded for a couple of my own CDs back in the day, but that's not really going to apply to smash until I learn the squealin' speed rock guitar solo from Mute City.

Current Projects - The Neverending To-Do List...

This list is used as a personal reference for me to figure out what I've got on the go, but odds are there's quite a few things on this list that I'll never have the time for, so feel free to peruse the collection and act on them if you like. As this wiki can be edited by anyone, I can't very well "reserve" these tasks for myself (and don't wanna anyway).

Declaration

This page layout was ruthlessly pilfered from Niaz, unlike my previous page layout which had been ported from my own Wikipedia user page, which I blatantly stole from Codu, who previously stole it mercilessly from Blankfaze, who would go on to be an unknowing celebrity of user page design amongst the SmashWiki community as his layout would later be shamelessly snatched by MaskedMarth shortly prior to being ganked by James Sparrow, whose layout would be guiltlessly yoinked by Fifty-six k, meanwhile revealing the true thieving nature of Ame$'s black heart as he stole Janitor's layout which had been previously swiped from mine.

As a matter of interest, Blankfaze himself doesn't even have a user page anymore.
