== TBH 6 ==
So I am not sure why the PM event can't still exist on this page, even if it wasn't technically a part of TBH6. The PM event ran alongside TBH6 and clearly it is associated with it. The alternatives are to make the PM event its own article which makes no sense as we've never done that before, or just not document it at all which doesn't really make sense for a tournament that size. Why can't the PM event just go on the TBH6 page but be made clear that it wasn't technically a part of TBH6? <span style="font-family:Chiller;font-size:18px;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #222">[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#d50">Serpent</span>]] [[File:SKSigHalloween.png|16px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#d50">King</span>]]</span> 17:36, 13 October 2016 (EDT)

== Hitbox Info ==
Hi Toomai! I've been researching the hitbox data for Smash 4 characters' moves so I can post it to the wiki, and I had a question regarding trip values. How would I convert trip values from the raw data like 3edccccc and 3e800000 into a percentage value that I can put into a hitbox table? [[User:CpnFlacon|CpnFlacon]] ([[User talk:CpnFlacon|talk]]) 17:38, 26 October 2016 (EDT)
:Just search the internet for a hex-to-float converter. For example, 3e800000 = 0.25 = 25%. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[Image:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Metroid 06:59, 27 October 2016 (EDT)

[[User:CpnFlacon|CpnFlacon]] ([[User talk:CpnFlacon|talk]]) 15:01, 27 October 2016 (EDT)
:::Yeah I've been meaning to make an on-wiki page how to do this but never found an opportunity. For SFX level, 0-1-2-3 = S-M-L-H. For SFX type, common ones are 1 = Punch, 2 = Kick, 3 = Slash, 7 = Shock, 8 = Burn, 11 = Explosion, and 16 = Magic zap.

::Wait, I'm confused now. I just looked through the data for Mario, and according to that key, all of Mario's moves except his dash attack would have an slvl of S, which I know isn't true. Am I reading it wrong? Is my source wrong? [[User:CpnFlacon|CpnFlacon]] ([[User talk:CpnFlacon|talk]]) 11:41, 2 November 2016 (EDT)
:::What is your source? Then 20th value should be SLvl, with shield damage before it and SFXT after it. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] [[User talk:Toomai|Glittershine]] [[Image:Toomai.png|20px|link=User:Toomai/Bin|???]] The Glow 06:48, 3 November 2016 (EDT)

:::Yeah MasterCore has a few misaligned parameters down near the end of the line. Up to Clang is correct, then it should be Rebound, Shield Damage, SFXL, SFXT, G/A, Direct, and Type.

== A task worthy of the snark module themselves ==
Hey I was wondering if you could get XL to add [[:Category:Sound clips]] to all OGG files, and additionally, remove all sounds from [[:Category:Sounds]], as it's redundant to have both. Thanks! <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva;font-size:12pt">'''[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #0b7">Serpent</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|16px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #fd0">King</span>]]'''</span> 19:57, 5 November 2016 (EDT)
:So you want to delete [Uploaded files]/[Fair use files]/[Sounds] and move what's currently there to [Gameplay]/[Sound clips]? I dunno something smells funky with that structure; sound doesn't really fit as "gameplay". I feel like maybe the opposite should happen, or things get reorg'd in some other way.

::Nono, I just want to get rid of Sound clips or Sounds, one or the other. If you want to go the other way, that's fine. Btw, what sound do we have that would not be considered gameplay? <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva;font-size:12pt">'''[[User:Serpent King|<span style="color:#083;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #0b7">Serpent</span>]] [[File:SKSig.png|16px|link=]] [[User talk:Serpent King|<span style="color:#ed0;text-shadow:0px 0px 3px #fd0">King</span>]]'''</span> 16:52, 6 November 2016 (EST)
:::I mean, personally I'd argue that no sound can be considered "gameplay" in a fighting game unless a move has a sound as its only tell or something. I do agree that the two categories should be welded together somehow, and will have a look at how to do it.

== Knockback formula ==
Apparently, Melee's knockback formula is the same as Brawl/SSB4's, except for the gravity thing. If said attribute were to be removed from the equation (no pun intended), how drastic would the effect be on the character? For example, on Greninja who has the second highest gravity in SSB4, how high would his vertical survivability become? As high as the heaviest characters like King Dedede? --[[File:BeepYouSignature.png|40px]] <font color="Purple">'''Feliz Noviembre'''</font> <font color="Yellow"> '''de parte de'''</font> [[User:BeepYou|<font color="Gray">'''BeepYou :)'''</font>]] [[User talk:BeepYou|<font color="#F50087">'''(talk)'''</font>]] 21:07, 9 November 2016 (EST)
:Miniscule. A character with a gravity of 0.2 (only Melee Fox reaches this) takes an extra 0.525 units of vertical knockback. This is 19 times slower than one Brawl Stage Builder block per second. It's purely for trying to normalize multi-hit moves, nothing more.

::Then does that mean the attribute that makes characters have extreme resistance to vertical KOs in Melee and Project M is solely falling speed? No other factors? --[[File:BeepYouSignature.png|40px]] <font color="Purple">'''Feliz Noviembre'''</font> <font color="Yellow"> '''de parte de'''</font> [[User:BeepYou|<font color="Gray">'''BeepYou :)'''</font>]] [[User talk:BeepYou|<font color="#F50087">'''(talk)'''</font>]] 16:14, 10 November 2016 (EST)
:::Okay I guess I should have clarified. Gravity has minimal effect on the knockback applied to a character. But as soon as it's applied, gravity affects their trajectory. If you dealt an equal amount of knockback in the same direction to two different characters (which would require them to be at different percentages), they would travel different distances because of their aerial movement characteristics (such as gravity).
