I've gotten totally addicted by SSBM recently! The reason why you haven't seen me at these forums that much recently (even tho many would say that is a positive thing) is that I'm spamming at the smash forums instead lol. Been playing everyday with good players and when I'm home I find myself playing singleplayer. I never was this addicted to even Starcraft! Seriously Starcraft is the best fucking game ever but if it's one game that comes even close it's Super Smash Brothers Melee.
I'll play this until I get bored and/or SC2 comes out but until then I gonna try get good at this totally awesome game.
Yea I was addicted to SSBM before I got into SC. Loved it (pretty high skill ceiling, there was lot of competition too; ie. lots of tournaments to go to wherever you lived).
Used to be involved a lot with the competetive community in london. It was a great game growing up with the metagame and the ppl around me but eventually (like starcraft) it is so optimised and the "APM" requirements are so high that it is pretty beyond me now haha.
I could imagine how much it must suck for a newcomer to come into the scene to play with a bunch of seasoned veterans you would just get your ass handed to you all day like you do in starcraft
Heh SSBM has some pretty crazy apm requirements as far as fighters go.. that is a major ceiling which i cant break which probably stopped me getting better. I just didnt have the mechanical ability to pull off a lot of the more technical moves consistently anymore. But gl2u. Fortunately it probably only takes 3-6 months to catch up with the community if you practise hard compared to starcraft which probably takes a lot longer

I live in Gothenburg, we can meet if you attend to any smash event anytime soon ^^
Meh =( I hate Uppsala, so few smash players there. Only active people here are me, Echoist and Hack :/ But it's nice to see new people joining the smash scene Perhaps we can meet in a tourney sometime in the future.
interesting. ive actually met silent spectre in person. he is in fact, really silent. doesn't really talk. i had the honor of playing practice matches against him for an hour straight, losing all of them, even against his "off-characters". it was interesting until i got sick of losing. they were all pretty much one-sided losses.
