Posted December 3, 2023 My personal highlight was the devastating realisation that Shulk in his swimming outfit has exactly the same ensemble as Banjo. Both of them wear nothing but shorts and a necklace, have a big red thing attached to their back that they wallop opponents with, have blue eyes, and have British accents. Not entirely sure if it's an improvement, or ruined forever... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either way I think we go with time. I'll try to get custom stages set up for half past 7. I'll be on VC @S.C.G if you need help setting up. Room for custom stages open.

Posted December 9, 2023 Thanks for the games. "Are you OK?" With two triple random matches, and a sudden death win as Terry at the end? I sure am. Here's a link to this week's stream... - - - - - N-Europe Saturday Smash! (09/12/2023) - - - - - 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 9, 2023 Some great matches tonight. Sorry I had to close the room to open again after custom stages, I couldn't seem to turn them off (or find out where) Anyway I need to get the video of Terry (me) vs Samus (@RedShell) off of the Switch to post it (it was a custom stage one) as I had the best moment with Terry near to the end. Shout out to the insane combo right at the start on Norfair, and the double match with Triple R.O.B and Doctor Mario. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry I had to close the room to open again after custom stages, I couldn't seem to turn them off (or find out where) No worries. You didn't actually need to turn them off though, I always switch to selecting standard stages from 8pm so it doesn't matter if custom is still enabled or not. Anyway, great games as usual. Enjoyed those 1v1 battles too. I thought I did something really cool here and scored a triple KO! But in watching it back, it turns out I was also one of the KOs: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1999838770?t=0h59m22s Also, fun with the Home-Run Bat: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1999838770?t=0h50m16s That's the first time missing a Final Smash has been worthwhile. OK, see you all next week. Hopefully @Glen-i will be back too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe it's another edition of "I probably should've told them that" It was probably a good idea for BowserBasher to restart the room, because by default, custom stages are included in the random selection pool. He would need to go into the random stage selection option in the rules setup and turn them off in order to allow people to choose random and never get a custom stage that way. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But normal and custom stages each have their own completely separate random choice setting, so surely a custom stage wouldn't be selected unless someone in the lobby were to specifically choose one or the random custom stage button? You always have the option to choose either normal random or custom random when both types are enabled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the Random option being on both pages is purely for convenience. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 16, 2023 Yup, once again @RedShell astonishes us all with his stage building abilities. Me and @Glen-i were like "is that lava moving?". Great matches and some good close ones tonight. I had a pretty good night myself. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted December 17, 2023 21 hours ago, Glen-i said: Well, well. Someone's been busy! EDIT: OK, the Shantae one is brilliant! Very cool! Yep, once I get started with stage builder I do find it quite difficult to stop, be it making new stages or just tweaking old ones. My Star Fox stage is on its 3rd iteration now, it was a bit too chaotic originally when you could only stand on the arwing(s) so I chucked some more terrain in there which seems to have done the trick. And the way Andross can now eat players/items but not always spit them out again ended up well too. The Shantae stage came about when I recently purchased the Mii costume/track. I wanted to have falling cannon balls as the stage hazard but making stuff fall into a stage from directly above is so tricky without any off-screen space to play with there, so had to settle with the lava idea instead. 21 hours ago, Dcubed said: Bloody hell @RedShell! Those new stages are incredible! I have no bloody idea how you pulled off the moving lava with the Shantae stage, but mad props! Cheers. The lava is just a couple of terrain pieces placed extremely close to the ground, and then both set on a super slow speed path to gradually make the stage get smaller over time. 19 hours ago, BowserBasher said: Yup, once again @RedShell astonishes us all with his stage building abilities. Me and @Glen-i were like "is that lava moving?". Great matches and some good close ones tonight. I had a pretty good night myself. Yeah, great matches. That last stock between you and Glen on the Mario Wonder stage was particularly fantastic! You almost managed a great comeback as Pac-Man. Looked like it should've been a double KO to me, but Wario was too heavy to get properly launched! Speaking of almost managing a great comeback... that game when I was Little Mac. 2 SDs in the first 30 seconds yet somehow I was a whisker away from the win: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2006107384?t=0h3m10s Anyway, don't think I'll be available for the next couple of Saturdays (if this is still going down) so I'll just say Merry Smashmas to you lot now, and hopefully catch you all again in the new year for more battles! 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted December 18, 2023 Oh, actually. That reminds me. @BowserBasher, @Ike, @S.C.G. Next Saturday will be the 23rd of December. That's pretty close to Christmas, some people might have commitments. If you would prefer to have our Smash session on Friday instead, let me know. (Or let me know if you absolutely cannot make Friday) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
