DLurkster Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Depending how my back feels like (mentioned in MK8 night thread) I may not play as sitting and playing doesn't help my back. Moving around seems to help. I'll update how the day goes tomorrow with my back. Quote Link to comment
Eliwood8 Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Could've sworn I did reply to this, sorry to leave you hanging. I'm available for April 1st, yeah, whether you want to do a Team Smashdown, regular, with items. I also don't mind waiting to do Smashdown on the 8th if you want to wait for Krazy to be free.

DLurkster Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 Welp, my back is feeling almost 100% (I would say 90%, much better than the last 2 days where it was like 40-60% each day leading to today) So I can sit and play video games tonight...that said. Tonight is failure to launch, since I haven't played in a while (there's been periods I haven't played and went straight to play any night but) there will be no failure to launch. I want to take the opportunity to play random characters. Been wanting to for a few weeks to months now. So I get feeling with characters again if there's Team Smashdown next week. So like it usual it is every Saturday night but I will be going random characters, (most of the night) unless I need to go to the usual suspect with random players. I'll see anyone tonight!

Thus, why I asked. @purple_beard you in for April Fool's night? We so far have me and Hyena and and Eli, Hyena is in for Krazy as that is wrestlemaina night. I will take break for once this Splatfest this weeks to play in this Team Smashdown, if not I will play in the Splatfest. And as for the Smashdown I really want to play that, might well move on to the next month and skip this special Team Smashdown. It's just to me wouldn't be he same to play like any other Smashdown that month. @purple_beard: I haven't heard anything from similar to Eli but he thought he got back to me and I am thinking this the same with you? As I, Initially said I didn't hear what some said what their availability is for April Fool's night? Could be that you don't have a definitive answer till close to the day, that is fine but at least let me know that. I will give me time, if we need another player and tho Eli said to postpone the next following week. As I said in the quote above I really want to to play this special Team Smashdown, it just wouldn't be the same to play any Smashdown this month. That's where I stand. Let me know you status, PB as soon as you can for this Saturday. Thank you. Quote Link to comment

DLurkster Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 So I was thinking about this for a while for the Team Smashdown items and it came to me; stopwatch! I recall for a theme I think before the new year of this year, I was thinking what symbolize time and anew and the stopwatch came to mind. The stopwatch works here be tricky that some of the time it slows your opponents down but in rare cases it can slow the user down and all your opponents move at regular speed. This think came to mind of think of something like Majora's Mask making your controls backwards or spear pillar with the legendary Pokemon who do that to you. This kind of time manipulation with stopwatch and when the user might slow down instead of your opponents, is a sort risk/reward. Especially with the items on high for the bumper and Franklin's Badge. That said, tho I think all those items with stopwatch on high, I will test these parameters out and I just report here how it went, I don't think a vid is necessary to show how the results went.

I tried this out and there wasn't anything outlandish that shouldn't be. I'll say this, the one match I played with teams was a different kind of fun, I have yet to experience in Smash, probably more without the percents. It looks weird not seeing it, just as the match is about the start but like 3 seconds, I'm so focused on the match I forget it is not there.. It goes to show where one mind goes in Smash, I know we probably still experience from time to time but we definitely experience the very first time playing Smash, 'where's my character on the stage?' I feel no matter how long you played Smash, there are things we pay attention more or less in the match like hazards, items, cooldowns, hitboxes, wind up, go to moves, time, and stock. Anyone can list what they monitor more than the other but this is what I am talking about, when I mentioned the percents were gone than a few seconds later, I'm just back in the fight, fighting. This Saturday should be interest to see how the matches play out with this and these items in the mix at high. Like I said, it's a different kind of fun. Quote Link to comment
purple_beard Posted March 29, 2023 Author Share Posted March 29, 2023 With MLB opening weekend this week, do you want to put the bat and baseball in the items? Quote Link to comment

Even if this wasn't a Smasdown night, I want to stick to similar themes. Bats and baseball don't have much to to do with the tomfoolery that is April Fool's. We have the tricky items like Bumpers, Stopwatch and Franklin's Badge. Add in no percents and this really sets a tone of what not to expect to some degree like April Fool's to an extent.

purple_beard Posted April 2, 2023 Author Share Posted April 2, 2023 I could NOT be on voice the 1st 30-40-1hr of tonight's games. I'll type in selections in chat. Will be watching something that could last to 10:30+/-... I'll also be in portable mode for 1st half, most likely. DLurkster 1 Quote Link to comment

Nothing. Last week when I unfortunately couldn't play at first and didn't feel like playing Smash cause my internet went out for a bit. (I mentioned this on the Smash Discord Chat) It just wouldn't be same to play a normal Smashdown today, we can skip it till next. It's not like this hasn't happened before so. I am okay with it. As with the theme, normally I'd say another character theme....I'm cool with it but tho I think you'll play like 30 minutes to a hour. I want to play randoms again but I don't think it will be all night, I'll play whatever characters at another point. So you or anyone else can do Mario characters for however long but for me not this time. Quote Link to comment

I'd say that is more than enough for a full session. I'd only suggest a 30m theme if it's like 1-2 characters... but we haven't had a situation like that in a while.

purple_beard Posted April 9, 2023 Author Share Posted April 9, 2023 I found my Dr. Mario was sufficient. Surprised I didn't get anywhere with Bowser. Daisy...ehhh Yoshi ended up about as expected. Pirahna Plant...well...ehh. Thought I would have done better with Morton... Oh well. Quote Link to comment
TKrazyO Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 We're gonna need a 4th for the next Smashdown on May 6th since DL won't be here 3 hours ago, DLurkster said: Crud, it slipped me this time because....you know Zelda. No, I'm gonna sit this Smashdown out not because it is Zelda theme but I usually go all in with Splatfests. Early this month would of been an exception with the special theme Team Smashdown. This is just your run of the mill Smashdown so it is decided. No Smashdown for me on May 6th. Find your alternate player now. We still have a couple weeks beforehand but he wanted us to find an alternate player NOW! So @TheBarkinHyena, would you be available? If anything comes up between now and then you can let us know. That also applies to the regulars @purple_beard & @Eliwood8. In other news as per usual I will not be on this Saturday due to Cooldown time, but I will upload last week's session tomorrow to YouTube. That is all! DLurkster 1 Quote Link to comment
Eliwood8 Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 I should be free on 5/6, though again I'm fine moving the Smashdown back or forward a week, whenever people are available. Quote Link to comment
purple_beard Posted April 15, 2023 Author Share Posted April 15, 2023 At this time, I see nothing preventing me from playing. Quote Link to comment
TKrazyO Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 Here's the video: Anyone want to do anything special for next week's Smash session since it'll be the 100th numbered video? DLurkster 1 Quote Link to comment
