I hope the message is suitably not implicating you. Fwiw, we monitor actively and systematically Lakitu, so this is something we'd have plausibly noticed. Yup, no biggie. I assume proboards doesn't let you just check PMs like jcink does? The more I see this board, the more mixed feelings I get. So many things that work better, and so many that are way janker. Neat to try something new, though. Yeah, we can't just look at them, which sucks. Having played on both, there are definitely pros and cons to each. I definitely wish for the jcink non-live challenge system to be implemented here, for one. |

Oh yeah, I saw there's some weird shit to compensate for the lack of hide tags, which is unfortunate.
On a different note, man. I felt like I had to jump onto this team because of the alliance pressure from Kaz, but I'm seriously annoyed by the position it put me in. Either I join 'em, maybe get some solid safety, but have to work with a group I both don't like conceptually (making a pre-team selection alliance? awful. and they were so obvious by all jumping in instantly, too), and don't even really like that much socially, Wario does not seem that good right now, and Dedede's just alright. Luckily, our teammates aren't people I like that much either, so I wouldn't feel bad if I stuck with this group, but... I just feel like I'm seriously handicapped when I'm missing a lot of the people I felt like I could get along with best, like Falcon and Robin. Bleh.

Oh, and I didn't actually say the alternative, which would be joining a different team and basically telling them I don't want to work with them, especially Kaz, who was very forthright in wanting me in their alliance. Which I wasn't about. If I'd realized the posting time, I definitely could've gone to the ring and been able to pass that off, no problem. And if I realized the timing was so awkward, I would've been more social than I actually was... So many regrets, and it's not even the first round yet. Ah, well. |

Can I ask how the solution was to be found, since I did technically get the code right and all that? I get it if you don't wanna explain it, I just really can't figure out why Nintendogs is the odd one out when there's other games in the background that aren't fighters. But I get it if that's a post-game thing! |

Unfortunately we can't explain how the solution was found yet

Hi Dark Pit!
Great to have you with us in this epic tournament! As our dear creator Masahiro said, feel free to use this space however you wish. However, to help get you get started, feel free to share your thoughts on the following questions:
1. What do you make of the Arena format and how will it impact on the way you choose to play?
2. What considerations came into play when you selected the Green Team?
3. Which fellow players did you find yourself drawn to in the first day?
4. Conversely, have you already made any enemies? Is there anyone on your Team that you aren't happy to see there?
5. Finally, do you have any thoughts on the Sandbags and how will they affect your approach to the game?
Feel free to reach out to the hosting team at any time if you have any questions. We’ll try to get back to you as quickly as possible.
Otherwise, we hope you have fun in this tournament and best of luck with being crowned Smash Arena: Ultimate Champion!

I'll answer these a bit later, but first, the first round isn't tonight, right? Masahiro Sakurai Wario's talking about who he voted, and I'm like, hold the fuck up. Lmfao. |

I was like, holy FUCK I'm all kinds of turned around if votes are due in 8 minutes, and people are REALLY slacking. Nah, okay, that's what I thought. |

Glad to avert the panic, but imagine, the 2-1-1-1-1-1 vote would have been iconic  |

However, to help get you get started, feel free to share your thoughts on the following questions: 1. What do you make of the Arena format and how will it impact on the way you choose to play? 2.

Feel free to reach out to the hosting team at any time if you have any questions. We’ll try to get back to you as quickly as possible. Otherwise, we hope you have fun in this tournament and best of luck with being crowned Smash Arena: Ultimate Champion! 1. Arena's the easiest format by a landslide, on account of me being traditionally excellent at challenges. 2021 was pretty rough for me, though, I lost a lot of clutch challenges, died prejury in an Arena game, not my best moments. I generally just find the format easiest to navigate, since I'm never that worried about being blindsided. Worst-case I just win the challenge, right? A little worried I'll struggle to convert to this board, but I'm feeling like these players won't be suuuper good at comps, so hopefully it's no biggie. 2. Kazuya thrusting me into an alliance with Dedede and Wario, mostly. I'm actually really starting to like Dedede, but Wario... eh. He's clearly an overplayer, and he doesn't talk to me much at all. I'm just trying to get in good with the rest, and hope that even if he tries something, he can't succeed. 3. I really liked Squirtle, Robin, and Captain Falcon in the opening scramble, and I'm bummed I didn't end up with any of 'em. Hell, if I'd noticed the timing properly, I could've at least captained Green Team and gotten a forum with the latter two. Just unlucky. 4. Yoshi's just... weird. His whole egg ally thing is an odd move, and with me not being an eggholder, it's... really difficult to see any reason to keep him around, if he's insistent on following that. And he's not really all that fun otherwise, so. But no one on my team's an enemy, just not super close with 'em yet. 5. Eh. Kind of annoying to deal with having to outbid the target, but I'm not really thinking much about it just yet. Maybe down the line. |

Thanks for your thoughts! Who are you anticipating will be the first Green Team vote out?

Right now it's tentatively on the plant, who only posts cute gifs from time to time. I'd slightly prefer to vote K Rool, who doesn't give me anything of note and isn't funny, but it's not a strong enough feeling for me to push.
