Thank you for being part of Super Smash Arena: Ultimate! This is your confessional area, a private space that is yours to do what you like with. We've even disabled the post counter, so nobody will see how much or how little you confess. You can use your confessional to do any or all of the following:
- Explain your strategies - Talk about your experiences - Ask the hosts questions - Store information and resources
plus anything else you can think of. Just bear in mind that whatever you say will be visible to all once the game ends. To help you along, the hosts will pop in from time to time to ask questions. Feel free to answer them in as much or as little detail as you like, or not at all, whatever you prefer. In addition to this, your confessional will be where you:
- Cast votes - Play attack cards - Pick and ban stages - Compete in The Ring
Check your other stickied threads for more info on the first three of those. Good luck, and have fun!

This is correct, but unfortunately, you weren't the first to claim it. Sorry!

Hi King Dedede!
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!

Hi Crazy Hand. Always good to meet a fan.
1. Arena format is cool. Means you can play more aggressively, which is usually never an issue for me anyway. You can be a bit more sneaky, and if you get caught, then you can just bugger off to another team and try out something new there. Can also vote yourself into the Arena and chalk up some wins to make others fear you down the track, usually some duds find themselves in the Arena early, so it's usually fairly safe to go in there early on.
2. I didn't choose the Green Team. The Green Team chose me. Captain Flog and Flogco both made it known they were going to join Blue, and I wasn't particularly feeling either of those guys, so it became either Green or Red. Few of the guys I got on with in the early PM's suggested we join the green team, so I tried to join the team a little bit later to make sure I wasn't first, turns out I was first though, which turned out to be not too bad a result.
3. Wario and Kazuya were a couple I was drawn to early days. As well as King R Rool. Dark Pit is a bit of a longer burning connection that seems to be getting better as time goes by.
4. I don't think I've made any enemies as of yet. Hopefully I have secret enemies out there though that despise me. I'm not really happy to see Link here, feels like he is here as a result of Wario. Wario seems a bit too busy with how many friends he's making. Going to have to cut players at a quick rate in Arena, you don't necessarily want too many good people on your team, you want easy votes.
5. Sandbags eh? I'll go read up about them again and see what they're about. I'm assuming that's the thing I will be bidding on. Perhaps they become more important as the game progresses, I don't think they'd be important to me early on. Maybe if I want to vote myself into the Arena for a round or two early, I could use these sandbags then.

Always good to meet a fan, the game is progressing now. Wario is a lunatic. Guy is here to flat out play which is good to see. I'll just let him do his thing, and keep him on a rope for now. What he does next will decide whether or not I reel him in or just give him some more slack. Right now he's playing on day 2-3 how I would be playing on day 12-13. Makes things interesting though, so happy to see him go for gold.
The plant apparently doesn't like me, which is fine. I'm more of a carnivore anyway.
Dark Pit is crazy good at replying to messages, reminds me of a younger me. Definitely the one that I feel closest to at the moment. Think we have been drawn closer to Wario leaving us out of group chats. But the two of us should have the greatest say on what happens on the Green Team moving forward.
Kazuya, I have slackened with over the weekend. Will have to tidy this bond up in the coming days.
Link, I have no relationship with at all. It's basically a we know we're not together, but we know that there are others to vote for kinda thing. Not too interested in building on a bond with Link at the moment.
King R Rool, he was fairly inactive with others over the weekend, which has pushed him into second last spot on the team. He'll probably be an easy vote, but contingencies will need to be put into place to make sure he isn't going to bid on sandbags. I get the feeling he is a very calculated player and will be aware of his situation quicker than not.
Robin is pretty chilled and on a similar wavelength to Dark Pit and myself, so I wouldn't mind meeting up with him at some stage and getting something going. I had to search the Robin character to realise it was a guy and not a girl. Think I may have referred to him as a girl a few times. Oops.
Captain Falcon is gonna do his whole leader thing and that's fine. Don't think he's done a very good job of hiding how close he is with Yoshi though. I'm seeing right through that charade. Green may have been a bit more obvious with how the team formed, but Blue is equally as close and strong together. Might be something worth throwing out to future members who enter The Ring.
Yoshi seems to have put most people off from my team, and potentially red team too from what Robin said. To say you only went to the Ring to catch up with your PM's is utter bullshit, so from the start Yoshi has put me offside. Don't piss down my neck and tell me it's raining, Yoshi.

Potentially sent a message to Yoshi after that result was revealed. Was just on my PM page and didn't see the result was revealed. Punish me if you see fit.

I had only just announced the results and moved Yoshi's role, so no punishment at all there, fits within the grace period where I wouldn't blame you for not having seen it! Thanks for the honesty all the same

My plan is to try and save Mario since I'm a sucker for his Italian accent.

Don't think poor old Mario has read how the sandbags work.

Hey D3!
Given your last chunky update I'm curious how you feel Green Team is perceived by the other teams? How confident are you that a duelist will choose Green to return to? Do you even want someone to join Green Team?
