Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome, editors and users, to the Smash Arena! Each week this forum hosts a tussle between two characters, items, stages or anything else from the Super Smash Bros. series! The winner gets, well, nothing. It's more of a poll but functionally, this is a popularity contest. You may vote for your favorite or who you think would win in an competition between the two combatants that round. No, you don't have to vote for the character with strength & power, just vote if you are a total fanboy of the character. So what are you waiting for? Get voting! Remember, you can remain anonymous! If you have any requests for future fights, please feel free to leave a message here.

The Rules

  1. When voting, you can give a brief comment on why you voted the way you did, or you can just leave your signature.
  2. You can only vote once. Any multiple votes will be removed.
  3. Put a # before your vote to facilitate the vote counting.
  4. Type ~~~~ after your vote to sign it, whether you are logged in or not. Using the wrong number of "~"s counts as not signing - your signature must have both your signature itself and the time.
  5. There is a line in each section consisting of "DO NOT ADD COMMENTS OR EDIT ANYTHING BELOW THIS LINE". You are to do so; do not just type your vote at the bottom of the editing window. Not following this rule results in your vote being displayed in the wrong place.
  6. Put your vote below other votes; that is, so the votes are in chronological order.
  7. Any comments about the fight should be left in the comment section. However, you are not to post argumentative, accusative, or any sort of comment with the intention of starting an argument with someone on the opposing side. The Smash Arena is a popularity contest, there's no need to argue with the other side on why your choice is superior, or why they are wrong with their reasoning for picking their choice. You are also not to post comments that are just pointing out/complaining how close/one sided a matchup is. These sorts of comments are worthless, and do nothing but make an already large page larger.
  8. You may only vote in the current fight; all previous fights are closed.
  9. Do not leave a space between your comment and the ones above it (and/or below it).
  10. If there are multiple fights in a single round, try to make all your votes in a single edit.

If your vote is not added correctly - that is, it breaks rules 3, 4, or 5 - you have one hour to fix it. After this time, it may be moved by any user to the Half-Votes section (adding the unsigned template if necessary), and it will count as half a vote. Attempting to move your vote out of the Half-Votes section may result in it being worth zero at an operator's discretion. In addition, if your votes-to-rulebreaks ratio climbs too high, your votes may count for zero until the ratio drops to an acceptable level.

Intentional half-votes undermine the intent of the half-vote system as a way to punish voters for voting incorrectly. It is legal to want a vote to be worth half, but it is very heavily discouraged, and you must state in your vote you want it to be worth half.

Round 107: All-Star Rest Area (SSBM) vs. All-Star Rest Area (SSBB)

Winner!!
undecided

0 to 0
These two relaxing vistas have similar names and purposes, but with completely different appearences. Will the courtyard or the cave come out on top?

Votes for All-Star Rest Area (SSBM)

  1. I enjoy the Melee area's scenery more. Plus, I find it an unnecessary hassle to have placed the heart containers past the warp area. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 19:23, 7 October 2011 (EDT)
  2. Melee doesn't get enough credit when it comes to, well, really anything besides competitive play. --174.59.4.202 21:04, 7 October 2011 (EDT)
  3. has a happier, more welcoming feel. (made this vote from a 3ds!)pokémonultimate the toon link master (talk) 00:18, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
  4. The music. I remember when I use to play Kirby Superstar a lot. 66.222.173.139 11:52, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
  5. To me, the music and background are more relaxing and I can just sit there for a few minutes and chill.-Ivy73002MS.png 14:33, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
  6. I hate jumping over the warp space in Brawl. Plus this place looks more peaceful, and rest-friendly. James<3 (talk) 17:08, 8 October 2011 (EDT)

Votes for All-Star Rest Area (SSBB)

  1. BlindColours ...PUNCH!!! 19:16, 7 October 2011 (EDT)
  2. Come on, game, I need to fight Rayquaza or Duon NOW, or they'll be impossible later! >Sees Ridley's headshot in background< GODDAMMIT! Anyways, if you were to 'rest' in one of these areas, you'd fall asleep quicker here. ToastUltimatum Transparent Swadloon.pngComplaints Box 19:19, 7 October 2011 (EDT)
  3. This place has so much atmosphere. It first looks like an eerie, perhaps creepy place. But at the same time, it gives you the feeling of safety, safe from the troubles of All Star/Boss Battles mode. It truly feels like a "rest" area, and thus I prefer this more. Mr. AnonMatchupUnknown.pngtalk 19:51, 7 October 2011 (EDT)
  4. It seems more suited for smash Mastersword (talk) 20:15, 7 October 2011 (EDT)
  5. Yes! I finally get to take a break from this! I defeated Mr. Game and Watch! Now...OH NO! I HAVE TO FACE THE MARIO BROS! LOL. --107.5.57.137 20:44, 7 October 2011 (EDT)
  6. It makes me feel more protected from the harms of the opposing characters and it doesn't feel like sun is beating down on my back in the middle of a field. Squishyfrog Chat 20:56, 7 October 2011 (EDT)
  7. The teleporting platform is moar epic, and the light in the middle is kewl -[-=-]-Lucas-IV- An Enderman! Sh-SMACK! Lucas alive.PNG 21:30, 7 October 2011 (EDT)
  8. The All-Star Rest Area in Melee is kind of bland compared to the one in Brawl. 110.174.90.69 21:39, 7 October 2011 (EDT)
  9. Well, this is really... I'll just vote for Brawl's, because there's more..."atmosphere". Hawk 21 (talk) 00:46, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
  10. An underground cavern with light pouring in through the top just seems more epic than a small portion of Central Park. - Toa 95 (talk) 00:48, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
  11. I played Brawl. 68.174.11.29 18:02, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
  12. What's the difference? ..... 1999-2011 FalcoHeadSSBB.png well? 18:23, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
  13. It feels more...mystic. 25T16File:HitboxEffect(Flame).pngIt’s a me! 18:47, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
  14. This arena is all some. Because its music and challenges in it unlike melee they random the characters. Smash x 5432 (talk)

Round 106: Bowser vs. Donkey Kong

Winner!!
Donkey Kong

17.5 to 13.5
Two of the biggest brutes from the Mushroom Multiverse clash in this week's tussle. Which source of big mass and big power will get the big knock-out?

Votes for Bowser

  2. Bowsacide.-Ivy73002MS.png 19:37, 30 September 2011 (EDT)
  3. DK always felt like he had no creativity put into him whatsoever. Sure, Bowser's a big turtle, but he breathes fire, he's a turtle that leads an army, and his attitude in Paper Mario 2 is just plain hilarious. DK's an ape and, well... yeah. --174.59.4.202 20:25, 30 September 2011 (EDT)
  4. Bowser have loyal underlings that he cares about... sometimes... but Bowser is much moar aweshomez anyway -[-=-]-Lucas-IV- An Enderman! Sh-SMACK! Lucas alive.PNG 22:33, 30 September 2011 (EDT)

  9. Bowser Cw11cw 08:05, 3 October 2011 (EDT)

ROFL, Toast, the second part of your username is effectively invisible now. ReiDemon 19:01, 30 September 2011 (EDT)

Could you imagine a column the same color as the 'IP Blue'? Many legitimate votes would be classed as half for 'not signing'. ToastUltimatum Transparent Swadloon.pngComplaints Box 19:07, 30 September 2011 (EDT)
The date will still be fully visible, and going to edit would clearly show an IP signature. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 19:11, 30 September 2011 (EDT)
Now Squishyfrog's gone all camo. ToastUltimatum Transparent Swadloon.pngComplaints Box 10:33, 1 October 2011 (EDT)

Yay! My fight is up. As usual, I will not vote this round. Mr. AnonMatchupUnknown.pngtalk 19:47, 30 September 2011 (EDT)

Again: why? --107.5.57.137 06:46, 1 October 2011 (EDT)
Just because often I cannot decide between the two, as for me to have suggested them in the first place, I have already thought of them as equals. Mr. AnonMatchupUnknown.pngtalk 19:46, 2 October 2011 (EDT)

My signature was blank also in Luigi vs Link Cherrim98Cherrim Box Sprite.pngTalk 07:41, 5 October 2011 (EDT)
