I play Smash U with anyone that challenges me, regardless of their skill level, as long as you aren't someone with an unwarranted ego that will make excuses about the "lag made me play bad!". If you want to play me, contact me here and add my NNID. If you do play me, be sure to have tourney rules set unless noted otherwise.

 

 

:He's not active at the moment but if you don't mind answering for you, I can probably assume that Smash 4 is his favorite Smash game; with mods counting, I would say Brawl- for overall favorite.

Hey, I was just wondering, whatever happened to that SSB4 roster contest you had a couple years ago? <span style="font-family:AR JULIAN; font-size:12pt">[[User:ChuckNorris24|<span style="color:brown">Chuck</span>]][[User talk:ChuckNorris24|<span style="color:brown">Norris</span>]]</span>[[File:24.png|23px]]  19:08, 18 August 2015 (EDT)

::Why not today? It's a weekday (a holiday, albeit) so once you're done with your errands, we can perhaps play later. Unfortunately due to my school-adjusted sleep schedule, really late/early morning will not do. If you feel this topic isn't fit for the Wiki, let's talk on reddit. [[User:Chilex|Chilex]] ([[User talk:Chilex|talk]]) 10:59, 11 November 2015 (EST)

 

 

 

I'm not really going anywhere with this, and I'm not sure if I want/would read a reply; I'm just making a pair of troubling observations that you should have the ability to do something about. And in the midst of it, I come to a third one: If you weren't an admin, and you were to make an RfA, I'd fail it because your knowledge of smasher notability and high-level play is dwarfed by a lack of activity/reliability and an apparent refusal to compromise with others. If you're going to claim that someone shouldn't be an admin, maybe you should first ensure people can't say the same about you.

 

 

 

:Third point: We'll break this down by subpoints. Activity-level, yeah this isn't relevant; in a hypothetical world where everything is the same except my adminship, it's moot as I (nor any sensible user) wouldn't be requesting adminship when they aren't fully active with the wiki. Additionally, one not being fully active doesn't diminish from their admin capabilities. Reliability, when have I ever proven unreliable? Even when I stopped being fully active on the wiki, if someone asked me off-wiki to help with something (or even posted on my talk page), I would respond and take care of it. Refusal to compromise, yeah this is pretty much bogus too; when a compromise is a viable and sensible solution, I do it. Not going for a "compromise" when there isn't a golden mean =! "can't compromise". Don't fall for the golden mean fallacy.

 

 

::Well let's start this off with me agreeing that I shouldn't be a bureaucrat, so at least we have something there. Actually, would you say that the wiki hasn't had any bcrat candidates as a whole, like literally zero, since Emmett left? We're just a bunch of fighting game nerds arguing over who has the least bad people skills really, it's kind of difficult to find someone who's actually good at both worlds.

 

 

 

:::Regarding activity, if one hasn't been around in a very long time, nor been involved in the greater Smash community, then yeah their capabilities to administrate here would be reasonably diminished. For an admin that been semi-active within the wiki itself and been fully involved in Smash as a whole, their abilities will still be reasonably intact and would take like a week of getting to know all the new users to acclimate fully.

 

:::Point 4, it's still an ad hominem, whether one thinks I'm better than Miles or not doesn't impact the arguments I have against his capabilities.

 

:::Regarding reputation, from what I observed, new users always tended to view me negatively, just on the basis of the fact I'm more brash/blunt and am the admin who is/was most willing to put his foot down. Then those who stick around, and get to know me and the rest of the userbase, generally start viewing me much more positively, as they see I'm much more personable than an initial first impression may let on, and they see the tremendous asset I provide (FirstaLasto once even gave me a first hand explanation of this). Of course a few end up just not liking me or even developing a grudge against me regardless, though that's pretty much unavoidable when one tends to be outspoken and assertive. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 00:37, 12 November 2015 (EST)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

== Bureaucracy for Miles of SmashWiki ==

 

What compelled you to post on his request page that he doesn't deserve to be an admin and to a greater extent, a bureaucrat? - [[User:Drilly_Dilly|<span style="color: blue">'''Drilly'''</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Drilly_Dilly|<span style="color: red">'''the'''</span>]] [[User talk:Drilly Dilly|<span style="color: purple">'''Hedgehog'''</span>]] 01:17, 14 November 2015 (EST)

:::As long as it wasn't a personal attack, he has a right to be blunt if he chooses. The way I see it, everyone has their own methods of stating their opinion. [[User:Disaster Flare|<span style="color:Green; text-shadow: 0px 0px 3px green">'''Disaster'''</span> <span style="color:Blue;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px blue">'''Flare'''</span>]] ''[[User talk:Disaster Flare|<span style="color:SkyBlue;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px skyblue">(talk)</span>]]'' 01:25, 14 November 2015 (EST)

 

:So did you not read my posts at all? I posted because I value having a easily searchable source of Smash information that is driven by the greater Smash community (which is the only reason why I still come around over the past couple of years), and someone like Miles, who not only proven himself flatout incompetent to administrate many times (both on the wiki and off it), is completely counterproductive to achieving that goal. If the people here promote him to bureaucrat, it's proof-positive this wiki is a lost cause; it's already suffering greatly from having him run around with adminship he never merited in the first place.

 

:::I'll give that in my brief experience with you, you seem to be one of the more level-headed newer users that greater understands what the wiki requires to be as good a source of information as it can be. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 02:20, 14 November 2015 (EST)

:::::And this is the kind of ignorance among newer users that I talk about. Learn what goes into a making a wiki a useful source of information and upkeeps it, and go actually observe what Miles does. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 02:48, 14 November 2015 (EST)

I wasn't gonna point this out but... You actually did ''suggest'' things on Nyargle's version of the same thing. So you do understand what I was requesting, yet you chose to do it for him over me. Why exactly is that? <small>---Preceding unsigned comment added by [[Special:MyPage|<font color="brown">a turkey</font>]]! Or maybe [[User:DatNuttyKid|DatNuttyKid]].</small>

::Answer my question. You were overly harsh with me and actually rather polite with Nyargle, despite us both pitching the same thing. Why exactly is that? <small>---Preceding unsigned comment added by [[Special:MyPage|<font color="brown">a turkey</font>]]! Or maybe [[User:DatNuttyKid|DatNuttyKid]].</small>  16:25, 18 November 2015 (EST)

::In summary, you were like "this sucks" to DatNuttyKid's, and "this sucks, it could be this way" to Nyarglebargle's. Probably due to personal bias, favoritism, or seeing it to be more practical in helping an admin than a user. Maybe not deeming DNK's as worthy of that type of criticism, I'm guessing.[[User:Papayazzi|Papayazzi]] ([[User talk:Papayazzi|talk]]) 16:28, 18 November 2015 (EST)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"''Regardless, reverting and declaring you won't allow anyone else to put the old edit back in is absolutely not a remotely acceptable action to take; you and the rest of the newer userbase should have plenty of experience with Brian on how page-squatting, especially from a misinformed or significantly biased user, is detrimental to the wiki and overall counter to a wiki's purpose.''"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

:Normally I would say the former three should be merged into a tourney page covering the series like [[BEST|this]], but since they were free tournies, they're not anything more noteworthy than smashfests and should be deleted. The latter two are probably too small for individual tourney pages, but could go on their respective tourney series pages (the former already has [[River Bottom Smash Tournament Series|this]]). Generally any tournament with actual weight that can be sourced merits article documentation here, however a tourney should be about regional sized to get an individual article. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 04:31, 15 December 2015 (EST)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

::Alright, I'm writing this now that you and a certain other admin are here... I talked with other admins and they said there was actually never a problem with the vocabulary you used for Dark Wizzy's page, as it does follow the guidelines. Honestly, my first experience with editing wiki pages seriously was on the Mega Man Knowledge Base (a Wikia page) and since they had strict guidelines, it was easy to get used to the SW ones since the rules are similar. Since the rules for writing were more strict there than here, I actually never actually gave myself the time to deeply analyze this wiki's rules when writing an article. So yea, I suppose I was kind of triggered for the wrong reason.
