Welcome to the Spectator Stands! This is your venue to share information, discuss anything you like, and of course, receive a clue to the Smash Ball. You will receive a different clue to the Smash Ball depending on the number of times you have visited the Spectator Stands in the current phase of the game. You may share your clues here if you so choose.

This thread will close one hour before the next vote, at Monday 7:00 pm. At this point, this thread will be archived, so whatever you discuss here will only be seen by you, the lurkers and of course, us hosts. Enjoy!

[Dark Pit]

'Sup, demon dude?

[Kazuya]

So it's just me and Dark Pitt? Or can the competitors in the arena or anybody else in the game see what goes on in these lofty hallowed halls?

[Dark Pit]

Pretty sure it's just us, but Masahiro Sakurai can confirm.

Just the two of you, and the people out of the game!

[Dark Pit]

How's tricks? Wario still as insane as ever?

We went 5-3 over here, 3 votes on Duck Hunt, but I'm not stressing it. The Reds would be stupid to turn this into a side war, it's too short-sighted. Slightly surprised Falco didn't try and tie it, but not that much so. I think he knew it was a lost cause.

Dedede snagged immunity, too, so I've just gotta work my magic to make sure I'm not screwed.

[Kazuya]

Excellent. In that case...

Damn fine work meeting me here, Dark! I hoped one of the BAD GUYS would think to launch themselves up into this stratosphere with me!

Over on yellow we've managed to wrangle a second phase of G(old)-Corporation and sent that dastardly DK into the arena. Unfortunately I see that he's fighting one of our associates. How goes your situation over there? With the preponderance of red alumni, we fear the worst.

[Dark Pit]

Of course, all according to plan. In reality, we have a thread set up for people to mention what bags they want, and no one said anything about wanting the Grab. So I just snagged it for 2. Cheap as it gets.

Just red stuck with red, Falco wanted to kill a red, I'm pretty sure, but it wasn't meant to be this round. Hopefully this next round goes a little bit better.

[Dark Pit]

Also, this Smash ball clue tells basically nothing. It's annoying.

[Kazuya]

Heh, Wario is indeed incapable of relaxing. After a weekend of groundwork he was concerned when he wasn't receiving messages for even an hour. As if a constant stream of communication is the norm. But, he and I wrangled Marth and some stragglers into the numbers advantage for now.

I don't pretend to have faith that King K Rool has much of a shot in there given his admissions and fear of the arena, but DK hasn't shown much inclination either, so who knows?

Indeed. Less than useful. If I'd not known it existed beforehand, that would have at least been something..

[Kazuya]

Any idea how they decided on K Rool?

Obviously our scenario was simply DK = Red.

Seems Yoshi is still beholden to his eggs, and Plant went with them for our votes.

[Dark Pit]

He's planning on going for the survey challenge. Total crapshoot, so he's got as good a chance as anyone.

This tribe's a good bit quieter than Green was. It's nice. Very relaxing. Dedede and I were a little nervous we were gonna get got, 'cuz KKR was really calm for someone who was known to be getting at least 4 votes, but I guess he was just at peace with it.

[Dark Pit]

Triple D and I are just better socially. Pretty sure that was it. Same reason we voted Duck Hunt.
