I play Smash U with anyone that challenges me, regardless of their skill level, as long as you aren't someone with an unwarranted ego that will make excuses about the "lag made me play bad!". If you want to play me, contact me here and add my NNID. If you do play me, be sure to have tourney rules set unless noted otherwise.

If there's something you wish to speak to me privately, and cannot catch me on IRC (or cannot use IRC for whatever reason), you can contact me with email.

Favorite

Don't mean to bother you, but out of curiosity, what's your favorite Smash title (including mods like BB)? - Drilly Dilly (talk) 02:37, 16 August 2015 (EDT)

He's not active at the moment but if you don't mind answering for you, I can probably assume that Smash 4 is his favorite Smash game; with mods counting, I would say Brawl- for overall favorite. Dots (talk) The Left 4 Dead 03:03, 16 August 2015 (EDT)

Your favorite's Brawl Minus? - Drilly Dilly (talk) 03:05, 16 August 2015 (EDT)

Roster Contest

Hey, I was just wondering, whatever happened to that SSB4 roster contest you had a couple years ago? ChuckNorris  19:08, 18 August 2015 (EDT)

Will update it eventually, I knew I won the initial release and then grew inactive from here, so I just forgot about it. Omega Tyrant 08:11, 11 November 2015 (EST)

IK you're semi active but here's a CSS script..

Here is the script. (Feel free to use it in whatever way you like, including using it as part of the interface) a.whorb { background: url(/images/thumb/0/0b/Rollback.png/14px-Rollback.png) left no-repeat; padding:0 0 0 15px; } a.whobot { background: url(/images/thumb/1/17/Bot.png/14px-Bot.png) left no-repeat; padding:0 0 0 15px; } a.whoadmin { background: url(/images/thumb/4/46/Administrator.png/14px-Administrator.png) left no-repeat; padding:0 0 0 15px; } a.whocrat { background: url(/images/thumb/5/5c/Bureaucrat.png/14px-Bureaucrat.png) left no-repeat; padding:0 0 0 15px; } a.whodev { background: url(/images/thumb/3/32/Developer.png/14px-Developer.png) left no-repeat; padding:0 0 0 15px; } INoMed ^{(Talk • Contribs)} 14:43, 22 October 2015 (EDT)

Just a quick just-in-case-it-wasn't-noticed-earlier...

Could I request that, as much as you despise the userbase, you stay for a little? We've had more than 15 bad faith violations, and 6 vandals in 4 days, and the admins are little help: two are rarely active anymore, and the other isn't active at the right time or outright is uninformed until 10 minutes of violating. We could use your help. (Also, I'm Andyjraliw Bianchi from YouTube). Ganonmew, The Evil Clone 15:44, 22 October 2015 (EDT)

Nah I burnt out on wiki stuff and arguing with Miles over something that should be obvious isn't an appealing use of my time. I'll come and go when I do. Omega Tyrant 08:11, 11 November 2015 (EST)

Settle it in Smash?

Maybe we can go against each other sometime? Smash Master 16:21, 22 October 2015 (EDT)

Well...

"as long as you aren't someone with an unwarranted ego that will make excuses about the "lag made me play bad!""

According to this, it seems that you feel that I haven't changed a bit over the years. Well guess what? I decided to drop my unnecessary ego and am no longer whiny about lag. Smash Master 21:59, 22 October 2015 (EDT)

Don't know why you made a separate section for this, but oh hi Smash Master. Omega Tyrant 08:11, 11 November 2015 (EST)

You've been on a lot recently. What gives?

What gives? I thought you are semi active. INoMed ^{(Talk • Contribs)} 07:06, 24 October 2015 (EDT)

Semi-Active means they are on usually three times or less a month and rarely make edits. OT has not made a single edit since the Alph controversy between him and Miles, which was months ago. Ganonmew, The Evil Clone 13:36, 24 October 2015 (EDT)

You have Rob in your sig, I like you. Omega Tyrant 08:11, 11 November 2015 (EST)

TBH, that was pure coincidence, as I did not take into account that my signature image happens to be related to one of your SSB4 mains, R.O.B.! INoMed ^{(Talk • Contribs)} 09:04, 11 November 2015 (EST)

Hi

Welcome back, Omega. - Drilly the Hedgehog 02:12, 5 November 2015 (EST)

Hi. Omega Tyrant 08:11, 11 November 2015 (EST)

Your inactivity: allow me to explain

So...the definition of semi-active is that they appear rather frequently but inconsistently. Inactive means they haven't been seen in over a month or choose to be inactive. The fact that you said in the last section that you're tired of arguing with people on the wiki, and the fact that you've only just started making edits since the Alph controversy, would constitute as inactive. By your logic, Porplemontage is semi-active too. Also, never in my life did I think both of our worst characters would become your main someday (though I have been switching to the dark side lately...). Ganonmew, The Thankful Evil Clone 08:41, 11 November 2015 (EST)

" I'll come and go when I do. "

I.e. semi-active. Now you're really gonna dispute over something obvious? Omega Tyrant 08:44, 11 November 2015 (EST)

Woops. Thanks for clearing that up. Ganonmew, The Thankful Evil Clone 08:47, 11 November 2015 (EST)

So now that you're back.

Please play me in Smash 4. Chilex (talk) 09:30, 11 November 2015 (EST)

Saying I'm "back" nebulous, but anyway, finding a time I'm free to play without lag is tough, you'll usually either have to be free during around 9am-2pm on weekdays, or really late night/early morning, and then see if I'm available and in the mood to play. Omega Tyrant 10:49, 11 November 2015 (EST)

Why not today? It's a weekday (a holiday, albeit) so once you're done with your errands, we can perhaps play later. Unfortunately due to my school-adjusted sleep schedule, really late/early morning will not do. If you feel this topic isn't fit for the Wiki, let's talk on reddit. Chilex (talk) 10:59, 11 November 2015 (EST)

And since it's a holiday, that means others are home using up the internet, which means we would lag heavily. Omega Tyrant 11:05, 11 November 2015 (EST)

Hello.

There is something about your attitude that deeply concerns me, and I know I'm going to regret even bringing it up, but nothing ever revolves around what I want so.

Here's the situation. You take unannounced hiatuses from the wiki for months at a time. That's fine; even I get bored of it occasionally, and it's not reasonable to force people to say "I'm out for a while" somewhere. However, here we have a problem, or two problems in fact:

1. After your hiatus is over, you return to find a change you don't like, and proceed to say a one-liner of basically "this is terrible". Do you honestly think this comment and its delivery is going to help anyone? I don't understand the thought process that starts with that kind of comment and results in "yes, this is a good idea that will help me get what I want". There are dozens of ways you could voice displeasure with something while simultaneously being helpful about it, and while you did later get there, the point is you didn't appear to try in the first place.
2. Given that our number of staff members is low, it looks bad to have an admin that repeatedly vanishes without notice for months at a time, only to return and immediately stir up a bunch of crap. I'm not saying it's right or wrong to do so - some things do need to be stirred up by a fresh pair of eyes - but it still looks bad when someone leaves, comes back, and complains about things changing when they weren't here.

I'm not really going anywhere with this, and I'm not sure if I want/would read a reply; I'm just making a pair of troubling observations that you should have the ability to do something about. And in the midst of it, I come to a third one: If you weren't an admin, and you were to make an RfA, I'd fail it because your knowledge of smasher notability and high-level play is dwarfed by a lack of activity/reliability and an apparent refusal to compromise with others. If you're going to claim that someone shouldn't be an admin, maybe you should first ensure people can't say the same about you.

To make it 100% clear instead of 99.999% clear, people who aren't OT are not to respond to this. Toomai Glittershine The Keymaster 12:11, 11 November 2015 (EST)

Point 1: A section titled "ew" should obviously be indicative of a half-joking remark; when pressed, I provided more constructive posts.

Point 2: I take issue with this; commenting in opposition to something going on isn't "stirring up shit" (especially when it's constructive), nor is defending the addition to an article like the Alph thing (regardless of how obvious an inclusion the addition is). You should know better than to treat opposition like that. From what I see, if you're going to complain to anyone about "stirring up shit", say something to the users that repeatedly insist on saying everywhere "oh no that mean old OT might see and write big posts at Miles!", that clogged up Miles' RfB and talkpages elsewhere with a bunch of posts completely useless for anything but escalating conflict (seriously, why like that RfB's comments get clogged up with that shit?).

Third point: We'll break this down by subpoints. Activity-level, yeah this isn't relevant; in a hypothetical world where everything is the same except my adminship, it's moot as I (nor any sensible user) wouldn't be requesting adminship when they aren't fully active with the wiki. Additionally, one not being fully active doesn't diminish from their admin capabilities. Reliability, when have I ever proven unreliable? Even when I stopped being fully active on the wiki, if someone asked me off-wiki to help with something (or even posted on my talk page), I would respond and take care of it. Refusal to compromise, yeah this is pretty much bogus too; when a compromise is a viable and sensible solution, I do it. Not going for a "compromise" when there isn't a golden mean =! "can't compromise". Don't fall for the golden mean fallacy.

And for the final point, regardless of if I "should be an admin" or not, that's pretty much an ad hominem fallacy; whether you think a user should be an admin or not does not render their judgment of another user's admin capabilities invalid. I personally find you to not be an admin I think is suitable for a bureaucrat, but I of course know in itself that isn't a valid reason to try attacking your "I wouldn't make you an admin" point.

For one more thing, I can't help but feel a spiteful tone from this post, especially after all my interactions with you in the past couple of years. Omega Tyrant 13:10, 11 November 2015 (EST)
