I will brawl anyone that challenges me, regardless of their skill level. If you want to Brawl me, contact me here or on the IRC. If you do brawl me, be sure to have tourney rules set unless noted otherwise. I can additionally wifi you in Project M and Brawl Minus. I'm semi-active on IRC, and due to my inconsistent sleeping patterns, you can find me on there in the most unusual of hours.

If there's something you wish to speak to me privately, and cannot catch me on IRC (or cannot use IRC for whatever reason), you can contact me with email.

MLG

The copyright info thing is still a guess. No leads from either MLG or Nintendo. There's too little time for Brawl Qualifiers anyway for MLG to reverse the decision. --BrianDon't try me!  13:59, 8 May 2014 (EDT)

Random Match

i'll be up for Brawl after lunch (so about half an hour from now) if you're still up for the random character thing. We need to discuss things more real-time, maybe. FirstaLasto 14:43, 14 May 2014 (EDT)

I'm about to go workout now, but in about 45 minutes I'll be available. Skype is michaeloliver4792 Omega Tyrant   14:52, 14 May 2014 (EDT)

Going semi-inactive while traveling for a month

Starting Thursday, I'm going to be traveling for a few conferences until early July. I'll still be on some, but I won't be as active or lurking as much. I doubt this will be a big problem, but if you'd prefer I can ban every active user and protect all pages until I get back. Clarinet Hawk (talk · contributions) 00:24, 21 May 2014 (EDT)

Give me mod powers and I'll do it for you, plus I'll switch the default layout to Vector. blue ninjakoopa 00:46, 21 May 2014 (EDT)
I indeed think that is a necessary measure. Omega Tyrant   17:50, 21 May 2014 (EDT)

Is it possible to permanently ban IPs?

If so, can you ban me please? --69.244.174.29 07:35, 26 May 2014 (EDT)

It's possible, but it's a stupid idea and we'll never do it because IPs change over time. Toomai Glittershine   The Chronicler 10:14, 26 May 2014 (EDT)

Can you help me

sorry for before, but where can you practice your signature --Reshiram (talk) 20:48, 27 May 2014 (EDT)

SW:SAND, but use the "Show Preview" button instead of saving your edit. DoctorPain99 20:53, 27 May 2014 (EDT)

I highly apologize if I'm coming off as a stickler here...

...but you said you would delay my un-probation a week, and it's just a couple of days away from becoming double that. With all due respect, seeing the editing dispute on the AI page you're currently in, and whatever you've been doing off the computer that caused this to get delayed further, take as much time as you need. Just putting this out there though. MeatBall104; Get In Mah Belleh!!! 13:40, 30 May 2014 (EDT)

I personally think OT is in a bad mood recently, having to be angry and pissed at the tech skill crew as of right now. I recommend talking to Toomai about this. Dots (talk)   The Left 4 Dead 14:35, 30 May 2014 (EDT)
What Dots, don't talk shit when you don't know anything that has been going on in my life that is causing my recent lesser activity here.
@Meatball: As you can see, I have been inactive here this week and have simply forgotten about it. I'll get to it now. Omega Tyrant   19:38, 30 May 2014 (EDT)

3DS friend code?

Sorry, I'm just asking. Would you mind if I can have your friend code of your 3DS? Dots (talk)   The Arwing 13:45, 1 June 2014 (EDT)

I heard Melee Powershied reflection has returned.

Can you confirm or deny?--BrianDon't try me!  15:39, 14 June 2014 (EDT)

In the footage I've watched, I haven't seen anyone actually power shield stuff, so I can't confirm its status at the moment. Omega Tyrant   15:44, 14 June 2014 (EDT)
I see. I heard Marth also got more lag on aerials, his dash dance was shorted even more, and that dair was not fixed. Is there footage of that?--BrianDon't try me!  15:45, 14 June 2014 (EDT)
Marth's aerial lag looks no noticeably different, and remember that this is still a demo, so unless it's a significant change, I wouldn't put much stock in lag/power tweaks. Regarding dair, I recall seeing it meteor when it wasn't really tipped, and it seemed to have a lot less aerial ending lag (landing lag though was still heavy). Omega Tyrant   15:58, 14 June 2014 (EDT)
That looks promising. Let me know what else you find on my talk page or facebook. Also if Powershielding is back, the first thing you should test it on is the beetle. :p --BrianDon't try me!  16:37, 14 June 2014 (EDT)

Melee powershield reflection is indeed back: [1]. Chilex (talk) 03:05, 29 July 2014 (EDT)

That's the Brawl style powershield "reflection". Projectiles bounce off and become harmless. Notice that the fireball didn't hit the sender and reflected at a strange angle. FirstaLasto 03:09, 29 July 2014 (EDT)
Eh? Powershielded projectiles in Brawl either have its trajectory slightly changed or disappear completely. If anything, this looks more like Melee. Chilex (talk) 03:50, 29 July 2014 (EDT)
Mario didn't get hurt by his own fireball even though it was touching him in the endlag of his roll (endlag of roll isn't invincible). If it was Melee powershielding he would have gotten hurt. Additionally Firstalasto is correct in that it was Brawl deflection. Melee powershielding sends the projectile back on the exact same trajectory it was coming. In Brawl, the projectile bounces off on a different trajectory and ownership doesn't change.--BrianDon't try me!  01:32, 30 July 2014 (EDT)

Ridley

I commented on his talk page. I have information that you might think is interesting. --EpicWendigo (talk) 01:52, 19 June 2014 (EDT)

Already seen it and was already aware. Also, something like this isn't necessary, when I'm following the page anyway and will thus see it. Omega Tyrant   01:54, 19 June 2014 (EDT)
Oh, okay then. --EpicWendigo (talk) 01:59, 19 June 2014 (EDT)

Wondering about editing

As you are aware of, I (or some random guy, as you know me) had edited what I had thought to be a slightly controversial topic in a paragraph of Sonic's SSBB page. I had done this because it seemed to give a slight misconception regarding individual traits of him. I'm not ranting nor trolling about this, just so you know. I was just wondering about the phrase "one of the worst movesets". Not only is it completely general until the "either this or that" point, but there are too many false assumptions that could arise from readers unfamiliar with Sonic. After all, the moveset is what helps the player win, and a fighter with lackluster moves is... well... more or less Pichu, so I'd think it's kind of an exaggeration. I'm not looking for any phrase in particular or anything. It's just my idea. Getting my point here? Feedback? Opinion? Thanks. Man, that was a long thing to write... 70.64.149.212 17:45, 27 June 2014 (EDT)

"Sonic additionally possesses what is considered one of the worst movesets, which outside his special moves, consists nearly entirely of terrible to mediocre moves that either possess little utility, or are outclassed by similar moves of other characters."
The paragraph explains what it means in a concise manner.
"and a fighter with lackluster moves is... well... more or less Pichu"
This is in itself an exaggeration, as there are many, many things, that go into determining how effective a character is. If you think moves alone determines how good a character is, then you are not qualified to be writing about what makes a character effective/ineffective. Sonic may have a bottom tier moveset, but he has the aforementioned incredible mobility that allows him to run circles around everyone, along with other significant caveats that push him into the middle tiers.
"so I'd think it's kind of an exaggeration.
As a top five Sonic player, and one of the most knowledgeable Smash players there is, once said in response to someone saying Sonic has one of the worst movesets;
At first I wanted to make a big stink about this and calll you out and all.

But then I thought about it.

And I remembered that up air is one of our main kill moves and its literally one of the 5 weakest up airs in the game. And that our main kill move is almost 3 times slower than MKs down smash and still somehow manages to be the same strength. And that we have one of the worst jabs in the game. and that our fastest worthwhile move is 6 frames and is bad. and that our bair is like a combination of foxs and falcos bairs while only taking the worst aspects of both and putting them together. Were also one of the 6? characters that doesnt have a spike.

Sonics moveset is mostly awful. which pisses me off to no end because they could have easily made it way better. Just give up air foxs up air knockback. or make f smash 10 frames instead of 17. Or let jab do more than 7%. Or give dair the same knockback angle as ZSSs dair

Think about that last one. Do you know how amazing would sonic be if he could go offstage and weak spike anyone he wanted and still make it back to the stage. Thats all I really want. a dair that sends people down or sideways like MK... like EVERYONE seems to have.

As it stands now the absurd amount of versatility in his b moves is the only thing keeping him afloat right now. /saltrant

So yeah, it's no exaggeration. Omega Tyrant   09:43, 28 June 2014 (EDT)

I wasn't saying moveset alone wins the match, and the Pichu comparison is nothing more than a joke (on a related note, Pichu's tremendous evasive abilities would slide him up the tier list a moderate amount if not for his self-damaging yet otherwise somewhat passable attacks). I really didn't want to make any huge debate about this, though, as it was only an idea. Sorry for your troubles. 70.64.149.212 18:44, 28 June 2014 (EDT)

If you want to get into hypotheticals, if Sonic's dashing speed was a tad bit slower, and he didn't have his Spin Dashes, he would have been bottom tier and possibly been the worst character in Brawl :p Omega Tyrant   20:04, 28 June 2014 (EDT)

AI Exploits.

I posted an example on your facebook, but in general how do you make CPUs go offstage to kill themselves, for example making them air dodge in midair or baiting them to jump off with an attack you can then punish.--BrianDon't try me!  19:32, 18 July 2014 (EDT)

Also how would I make them roll to the edge so I can kill them with Fox/Falco's down throw?--BrianDon't try me!  19:34, 18 July 2014 (EDT)

In Melee, unless it's over a pit, CPUs will pretty much never go offstage intentionally, unless it's Mario, Dr. Mario, or Captain Falcon (who are programmed to jump at you with fair/dair respectively). For those three, it's a simple act of jumping offstage while remaining close to the stage, and then air dodging through them when they attack. On stages with pits, you can simply stand near the ledge or hang off the ledge, and then they will drop off to attack you.
For the second question, CPUs won't tech it, so you can guarantee shine them out of it. Omega Tyrant   08:00, 24 July 2014 (EDT)
Didn't notice you actually answered this. In any case if you didn't see the video I wanted you to analyze, here it is. In particular, I wanted to know how to setup kills where the Falco can kill with the side b meteor or the down throw meteor (and won't lv 9s always meteor cancel?). The other question is why did the small DKs air dodge (to avoid the laser) to death? And here's an easier way to do your Ganon cruel Melee trick.--BrianDon't try me!  17:49, 5 August 2014 (EDT)

SmashWiki YouTube channel

Regarding it, I have sent a new video for you to check on, since the page lacks updates as of recent. I have also been wondering, has any sum of money been made for my videos that I need to collect? I moved onto a new PayPal account, so I was just wondering. Conny  18:00, 15 August 2014 (EDT)

Hi, I was busy with personal stuff the past couple of weeks, hence the lack of response. I'll upload your video later on today, and when anayltics finishes gathering data for August, I'll update the earnings and send you yours if there's enough. Omega Tyrant   13:50, 1 September 2014 (EDT)

Special Signature

I know this isn't the ideal thing to talk about on a SmashWiki user talk page (yes, I am fully aware of SW:TALK), but I'm just curious...how can I change my signature from my current one (Aidan the Intermediate Gamer (talk)) to something like Aidan the Intermediate Gamer?

Forgive me for jumping in, but this should help. Miles (talk) 20:47, 12 September 2014 (EDT)
