About my block.

I realized that the block was necisary, as I had very inappropriate behavior. I hope the wiki is doing well these days.174.55.241.143 13:08, 20 April 2016 (EDT)

IRC

It just borked. Hard. Disaster Flare (talk) 18:29, 21 April 2016 (EDT)

Yeah I saw, seems Gamesurge is having issues... Serpent King 18:31, 21 April 2016 (EDT)

I mean, that was not supposed to happen. What kind of issues do you think happened? -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 18:32, 21 April 2016 (EDT)

IRC

Can you guys get back on? Dots (talk) The Character 19:33, 21 April 2016 (EDT)

We are on. The IRC had some kind of fragment thing happen. We're on one half while you're on the other. Disaster Flare (talk) 19:36, 21 April 2016 (EDT)

IRC Stuff

Was gonna find my proxy, but I found my Dota match, so uh, let me just say: You blocked me. Real uh, real professional there. I guess you'll want to add a ban on using the word SWAG on IRC if you're gonna do that stuff. MegaTron1 22:03, 21 April 2016 (EDT)

Oh shit I'm sorry. You uh...you have a very similar mask to his so I just assumed it was him. Removing now, my apologies. Serpent King 22:04, 21 April 2016 (EDT)

Note the address too. I can tell if its actually Swagman or not. Dots (talk) The Ness 22:24, 21 April 2016 (EDT)

User:Penro/WelcomeIP

I created a template to convice IPs to make an account, similar to our current welcome template. Do you think it's good enough, and if so, can we implement it as a template? If not, what do you think should be changed? Penro 20:42, 25 April 2016 (EDT)

Could be worth making, yeah. Put it to a vote maybe. Serpent King 08:35, 26 April 2016 (EDT)

K, thanks! But what will we have a vote for? If it should exist at all, or if it's good enough to be a template? Penro 23:05, 27 April 2016 (EDT)

Whether or not we need it. I am not opposed but I can't speak for the rest. Serpent King 23:09, 27 April 2016 (EDT)

Hey

Quick favor

Would you mind bringing this back for a second? I need it for something. Aidan, the Wandering Dragon Warrior 08:55, 5 May 2016 (EDT)

Turns out I don't have the file anymore so... You beat me to it. Drill Blaster Mark 2 (talk) 11:26, 5 May 2016 (EDT)

You guys still need this? Serpent King 16:44, 5 May 2016 (EDT)

Nah they've already got it uploaded. I'll go ahead and delete it. Disaster Flare (talk) 16:45, 5 May 2016 (EDT)

Kill Percents, worth mentioning?

I have noticed that for most characters, the percent at which their attacks kill is not mentioned. I'm referring primarily to the smash attacks and special moves, as well as some aerials. I can take the time to check at what percents these moves will kill (at least for Smash Wii U and Brawl) i'm wondering if its worth the effort. I'd hate to see someone delete my findings afterward. So do you think its something I should start on?Nightgengale (talk) 22:15, 5 May 2016 (EDT)

The thing with KO percents is that while you can get a general idea of where they are, you'd have to set up the same way each and every time. We actually have an article for forward smashes which has KO percents, but the problem on that article is consistency: We have no idea under what conditions these numbers were taken in some cases. There's also the issue of where to put the statistic... I would suggest in the description of moveset tables on the character pages. Just be sure to be consistent and note exactly how you are doing it (on Mario in the middle of FD is probably best). Serpent King 22:21, 5 May 2016 (EDT)

We already mention some kill percents on each character's general page. I assume that being able to KO a Mario at position X would warrant mention on the primary page while the specific pages could look at general weight KO percents and position and stuff. MegaTron1 22:24, 5 May 2016 (EDT)

That could work as well. Serpent King 22:25, 5 May 2016 (EDT)

Got it. Thanks :)Nightgengale (talk) 22:37, 5 May 2016 (EDT)

Leffen

Let me explain. Yes, it didn't break SW:TRIVIA, and I am sorry for the confusion, but the trivia was way too obivious to be decent trivia. That's sorta like saying,"Mango is the first Smash player to be sponsored by Cloud9", despite it being really obivious. Penro (Talk) 22:09, 6 May 2016 (EDT)

It's not obvious for people who do not follow the scene as closely as we do, and that of course is why we report on the scene in the first place. Serpent King 22:22, 6 May 2016 (EDT)

Yeah, I see. Penro (Talk) 08:19, 7 May 2016 (EDT)

"Clearly Consensus Means Nothing"

A 5-1-2 vote doesn't mean consensus, especially if you're gonna get all dramatic about how your majority rule victory makes you the victim. Honestly, someone can correct me if I'm blatantly wrong or outdated, but having a majority rule victory means jackshit in a lot of situations if the debate isn't going your way. MegaTron1 18:39, 12 May 2016 (EDT)

Larry Lurr

I prefer Larry Lurr to be called DEHF because I find it cooler and he only changed it to Larry Lurr last year. His name is still DEHF. Fox, Falco, Marth, Ice Climbers 20:16, 12 May 2016 (EDT) Thunder1738

Sounding cooler is completely irrelevant. It will stay Larry Lurr because as far as I know, this is the name he currently uses.

Also, your signature is a big ol' violation of SW:SIG. Please change it. Serpent King 20:20, 12 May 2016 (EDT)

Block

Youwutbro and poultry 73.52.84.159 11:06, 14 May 2016 (EDT)

Please read SW:TALK. This and a couple of your recent talk page posts have been in violation of it. Disaster Flare (talk) 13:21, 16 May 2016 (EDT)

Looking through your edit history, all of your edits except for 1 questionable one have been violations of SW:TALK. Cease this behavior now or you will be blocked for spamming. Serpent King 13:52, 16 May 2016 (EDT)

Might want to fix a red link.

Might want to fix a red link in the Screen KO Page in the gallery for the image I recently uploaded. TabuuandMasterCore (talk) 14:51, 18 May 2016 (EDT)

PewPewU Fox Main

PewPewU uses Fox more as a main than as a secondary or sandbagging character.

"He's literally only used Fox vs. Mew2King once, and that was at EVO 2014 (which was almost two years ago). On top of that, that's an incorrect assessment, considering the fact that PewPewU almost always goes solo Marth at nationals."

Also, if you didn't change your previous signature, I'd have to say that you have to now. You're just throwing out character page links when you could go and do that on your userpage. MegaTron1 21:05, 18 May 2016 (EDT)

Reverse 3-0

Ally lost 2 games, then won 3 games. That's what it means. Interpret and use that as you will. MegaTron1 23:58, 22 May 2016 (EDT)

A little iffy on how that's notable trivia Serpent King 00:04, 23 May 2016 (EDT)

Looking for some advice

I have been in this wiki for over a year now, but overall I just feel like I've barely helped contribute here. Whenever I try to keep things up to date in character pages among other stuff, it seems like someone always manages to do the job first. I wanted to personally ask you if there are any ways I can help contribute to this wiki, since I wanna be of use to you guys.

A million apologies if I should've posted this somewhere else, and will make sure to not do it again if that's the case. Thank you for your time. Tahu Mata, The Toa of Fire (talk) 18:14, 1 June 2016 (EST)

No no not at all, happy to help. There's always the "wanted pages" and "pages to improve" lists on the recent changes list as well as the maintenance bar in the same place. Serpent King 19:22, 1 June 2016 (EDT)

Much appreciated. I'll try to help out in any way I can. Tahu Mata, The Toa of Fire (talk) 18:25, 1 June 2016 (EST)

Can I please reupload my skull image for my profile?

I promise not to add it back to the Master Core page (unless I can convince Miles otherwise); I just want to use it in my profile. Thanks. Unowninator (talk) 12:15, 9 June 2016 (EDT)

Here, I can restore the image for you. Give me a sec. :P Disaster Flare (talk) 12:36, 9 June 2016 (EDT)

Ned

He also got 7th at Dismantle 2 and 3rd at Frostbite, and has some pretty good wins on players such as Zinoto. Penro 20:38, 12 June 2016 (EDT)

Well, those wins were with ZSS. I'm not sure whether or not he should be on Cloud's page yet. -- Ethan(Discussion) 21:17, 12 June 2016 (EDT)

Edit count

Is 55.1% a satisfactory amount of mainspace edits Kirby's Crazy Appetite ~ 22:52, 12 June 2016 (EDT)

It's higher than mine, lol. Then again I have a ton of File edits. Serpent King 22:57, 12 June 2016 (EDT)

Since you unblocked me

For unblocking me, have my new friend userbox:

This user is friends with a Preacher, TabuuandMasterCore. His community in Israel is Amish and doesn't like him editing the Wiki, but he does it anyways.

You have me in my thoughts for unblocking me, im going to edit the Mainspace before I get Probation. TabuuandMasterCore 22:01, 13 June 2016 (EDT)

Ahh... you never learn to just remain quiet and keep things to yourself when you messed up, do you? Plz. Stop. For your own sake. And it's not a threat, it's a notice of what will happen. -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 02:14, 14 June 2016 (EDT)

Hey

The ice climber universe template automatically adds that category... Poultry(talk) the God-Slayer 19:05, 14 June 2016 (EDT)

Just checked it and it does not, nor should it. Serpent King 19:20, 14 June 2016 (EDT)

Image Copyrights

Hey, I'm from the Smashpedia and I noticed we use one of this wiki's gifs. I'm assuming they're not but are the images and gifs free to use? If not I will remove it. Thanks. Tibarn (talk) 00:19, 17 June 2016 (EDT)

Through creative commons and sharealike, content from this wiki can be used elsewhere, so long as credit is given. What is the gif you speak of? Serpent King 00:23, 17 June 2016 (EDT)

The super wavedash on final destination. Tibarn (talk) 00:46, 17 June 2016 (EDT)

Oh ok yeah. Should be fine as long as credit is given. Serpent King 01:03, 17 June 2016 (EDT)

I assumed we copied SmashWiki's GIF because our Super Wavedash page was created very recently; however I was incorrect. Our image was uploaded in 2006 where as yours was in 2010. Which means the GIF is under copyright of Smashpedia as far as I know. I apologize for the confusion. Tibarn (talk) 00:16, 23 June 2016 (EDT)

That may be due to the fact that SmashWiki and Smashpedia used to be one. When the split came, a lot of the articles and files were imported, so there's a lot of images both wikis share to this day. Disaster Flare (talk) 00:40, 23 June 2016 (EDT)

Ah, I see. I only know very little about the split between the two wikis. Tibarn (talk) 08:32, 23 June 2016 (EDT)

About Template:Infobox Stage

Awhile ago, you helped me edit this template to make it look better + add a few things (which, I haven't even bothered adding these parameters to any articles anyway). Regardless, my main concern is in the tournament legality section. While it looks much better than it did before, the header for it appears even when it isn't applicable. An example would be on TEST. I am very novice at wikicode, so I was hoping you could do something about it if it's not too much to ask. RobSir zx 04:08, 18 June 2016 (EDT)

Oh yeah sure I'll get that in a bit. Serpent King 19:28, 18 June 2016 (EDT)

Happy birthday!

Happy birthday to an amazing admin! Seriously, have a good one. Penro 11:47, 28 June 2016 (EDT)

^ Same. Hope you don't feel too old. :) RobSir zx 12:31, 28 June 2016 (EDT)

June 28th. I'll make sure to remember that Kirby's Crazy Appetite ~ 12:33, 28 June 2016 (EDT)

Thanks guys :D Serpent King 12:37, 28 June 2016 (EDT)

Happy birthday bud! :P Disaster Flare (talk) 15:49, 28 June 2016 (EDT)

HAPPY FUCKIN' BIRTHDAY, MAN!!!!! Also, since you're finally at the correct age, have you had your first alcoholic drink yet? And if so, what was it? :P --MeatBall104 19:45, 28 June 2016 (EDT)

Thanks! No I haven't, Imma take a stab at that next week. Serpent King 19:50, 28 June 2016 (EDT)

Oh no... I missed

I missed on giving you a happy birthday. Staying away from the wiki has made me miss on lots of things. Ah well, happy belated birthday. -- BeepYou, a user with no grammar at all :v (talk) 13:22, 29 June 2016 (EDT)

Thanks  ! Serpent King 19:40, 29 June 2016 (EDT)

My edits

I'll try and limit myself to sections from here on out. But I'm gonna have to call horseshit on the part about my grammar when there's the likes of BeepYou making worthwhile contributions that are still somehow marred by grammatical mistakes that even grade school kids would avoid. With that being said, if you have any certain grammatical tips that you think would be beneficial, such as what you used for Robin's page, then by all means run them by me. 173.171.56.222 04:07, 30 June 2016 (EDT)

First of all, run edits through spellcheck first. It won't catch everything, but it'll cut down on mistakes. Second, read your sentence out loud. If it sounds awkward, it needs rewritten. Third, formatting shit: ''[[Game title|title]]'' is preferred over [[Game title|''title'']] for instance. Serpent King 16:52, 30 June 2016 (EDT)

I already do the first two. But if you're up to it, run those by BeepYou if you haven't already, since he makes good contributions that are marred by wonky grammar. However, I'll take the third tip into account. 173.171.56.222 18:15, 6 July 2016 (EDT)

A question

Despite my history of breaking the rules, is it still possible for me to have rollback? TabuuandMasterCore 19:55, 5 July 2016 (EDT)

Yeah, you can still try. Nothing holding you back really if you have the 3 reversion examples. Serpent King 19:56, 5 July 2016 (EDT)

Forgot to put this on my last edit summary

But thanks for that edit. Kirby's Crazy Appetite ~ 02:07, 10 July 2016 (EDT)

No prob :D Serpent King 02:08, 10 July 2016 (EDT)

Hey

Once notable always notable, using your logic, delete Recipherus due to being inactive plus Mew2King in both crews, yeah they were notable Poultry(talk) the God-Slayer 21:06, 11 July 2016 (EDT)

Imo, rule does not apply to crews unless they are highly notable. Also one good player simply being in a crew does not automatically make it notable. Serpent King 21:14, 11 July 2016 (EDT)

Agreed. We ended up deleting a lot of crew articles for this reason. Disaster Flare (talk) 21:15, 11 July 2016 (EDT)
