:He definitely did discover it. Find me an earlier date than that video please, or even an earlier thread dated before then. I was with him when it was discovered and posted on Smashboards. I posted it on reddit.

:Also, he definitely beat M2K at Bum's tournament. I was there, so was a good handful of people including M2K. I can even go find the date MikeHaze announced it on facebook.

As for ChrisG, he went to a tourney that was held at 1pm Friday when most people were at work and school. He won a $25 Best Buy gift card for winning the free tourney that took him months to receive. After back and forth messages, he had to go see the host in person to receive his gift card. [[User:Blunk|Blunk]] ([[User talk:Blunk|talk]]) 21:33, 24 December 2014 (EST)
 
Found the two Facebook post. One by Vinnie and the other by MikeHaze. Vinnie was there to see it too. Here are the two post:

I'm sure if you were to ask them about these images, both players would say they did indeed post this. I'm sorry Bum rarely posted results to his tourneys, he really only cares about the venue fee.

:The Chris G. bit is a cute story, but not notable, since you and the blog in question state that it was a low-key affair that means little. I won two tournaments in my high school a few years ago, does that make me a notable smasher?
 
:I still have my reservations about the entire M2K shindig, and I frankly don't have the patience to do the research for it tonight. I guess it is notable enough for inclusion, but only if the images in question are sourced.
 
:[http://www.reddit.com/r/smashbros/comments/2ihq73/problems_with_training_mode_combos_give_yoshi_a/ This reddit post] predates Southpaw's video by almost two weeks. So no, he did not strictly discover it. And an entire 3,000 hits does not make you "known" in YouTube terms.
 
:And for God's sake, do everything in one post. It gets frustrating to say something, then get repeatedly edit conflict'd.

::I could source the images, but what's the point of linking a FB post you can't see? You would have to add them as friends, then they would have to accept you. If you want to take the time, I would suggest messaging them about the pictures directly. Also cool, we have never seen the reddit post. Guess he was the first to discover it on Smashboards? Shout-out to reddit. Chris G. is a notable player in the fighting game community and I consider Smash a fighting game. It was a low key event, but he still beat Chris G, and that's something important he is known for in the community.
