| ==Altering Combatants==
| |
|
| |
| Supposed you suggested a fight and at least one person voted to support or opposed it first, but then comments kept saying that one more participant should be added, removed, or replaced, would it be okay to alter the combatants in favor of the comments?

| == Official ban on Smash 4 newcomers? ==
| |
|
| |
| I think we should make it an official rule that Smash 4 newcomers (characters, items, and other such elements) are banned from being suggested for the Smash Arena, until the game actually comes out and we get to play it. My reasoning for this:
| |
|
| |
| *The relevance in a given matchup with a Smash 4 newcomer can change drastically by the time the game comes out, where the match can end up an incomplete or terrible idea. For example, someone suggested a Sonic vs Snake vs Megaman match, under the pretense that they're third party characters; however, more third party characters are likely to be added, in which case, we're left with the unappealling idea of redoing a match but just with an extra participant added.
| |
|
| |
| *We don't actually know much about how these characters actually work in Smash, and thus these matches will be about impressions from short video clips and some images, or how we like the characters outside Smash.
| |
|
| |
| *Many people vote on Smash Arena based on their own personal experience with the participants in the Smash games, and such people won't be able to give these matches a real vote since they can't have any experience with the participants.
| |
|
| |
| *Such matches can be "spoiled" before they can achieve their maximum interest and relevance. By this I mean we can get a match and have it done but resulting in a landslide, before we get can the aforementioned experience and thus be fully interested in the match, but since it was a landslide, people won't want to do a rematch and thus the match ends up not getting a fair shake. For example, lets say we do that Peach vs. Rosalina match now, and Rosalina wins in a landslide. But when we actually get to play Smash 4, we find Rosalina to be a terribly designed character we don't like and wasn't at all what our impressions thought she would be, thus the match would end up much closer with much more votes, and maybe even results in Peach winning instead. But since the match was already done and it was nowhere close, people won't want to rematch it, thus "spoiling" the match.

| |
| :I thought the current wording of "the combatants must have appeared in at least one Smash Bros. game" implied past and disallowed future, but okay I can make this more explicit. The intent was certainly to disallow stuff from unreleased games outside specific circumstances.
