Brawl Central is an unofficial Super Smash Bros Brawl fansite. It acts like the Smash Bros. DOJO!! by providing information related to Super Smash Bros. Brawl, but it also has legitimate sources from Japanese forums (translated).
Brawl Central is run by known Smash Bros. players Chris and the Buzz Saw. The main website features many different pieces of information of Brawl though it is still under development. The forum's section is where all the members gather and discuss topics ranging from, "I've found the Brawl Wavedash!" to "Is Pokemon Trainer really Ash Ketchum?" The Administrators and their horde of moderators help keep things in line, though some responsibility is left to the members to decide whether is is appropriate to post subjects like, "I've got Brawl and I think that Sonic sucks."
A ranking system, similar to the one employed by Smash World Forums, is based off of the tier list from Super Smash Bros Melee.
0-99 posts = Bottom tier
100-499 posts = Lower Tier
500-999 posts = Middle Tier
1000-2,499 posts = High Tier
2,500- 4,999 posts = Top Tier
5,000+ posts = god Tier. (So far only one member named RinneganGod has reached this rank, though member Ryuutakeshi is almost there)
One unique thing about Brawl Central is the character clan section. Starting with the popular Aethercide clan, every character has had a clan started based off of them. Most clan's focus on the one character they are based on, though some clans, like R.E.D., focus on all characters. Another clan, named after a famous quote from the Dojo, titled Real Men Use Items is a clan that is based on item use.
Alliances are formed between these clans, although so far there has been no need for such alliances. Originally clans could have as many allies and rivals as they wanted but it ended up in a big jumbled mess. Member CO18 wrote up rules regarding clans which have, for the most part, been followed to this day. One such example of a Brawl Central clan alliance is Pokemon: Din's Fire Version, which is an alliance between the Elite Four (Pokemon Trainer clan), Electric Hunters(Pikachu clan), Balloon Fighters (Jigglypuff clan), and the Enforcers of Light (Zelda only clan). Also, opposed to alliances some clans have rivalries such as that between the Galaxian Enforcers(Meta Knight clan) and the Aritian Slashers(Marth clan). Clans with rivalries may host tournaments against eachother to test their skills and in general they are friendly rivalries.
