Thanks man, I still need to get better with him. Great games!
You can try to go to the options and set the mic sensitivity to 1, it's on 3 by default.

I have one CD left and now I have to be a total dweeb and play a bad Mario party clone with myself for seemingly hours until I can get a stupid random event to come up :/
Ugh who thought it was a good idea to lock a song behind this stupid mode.
My brother was awesome and just sat down and grinded out three 8+ classic mode wins for me. I was so concerned I'd never get those CDs, but he's better at Smash than I am (Melee was his first video game ever!) so it wasn't too bad for him.

Ggs Intelliheath, that little mac was starting to scare me I'm surprised you didn't stick with him..

Well, I just knew that his weakness is pretty much against your customized Plautena so I decided to go with Mii Brawler. I think I should have stick with Duck Hunt, Little Mac and Pit.

I dunno if anyone has a Smashboards account but I can't get into mine. I was gone from the site since February 21st and I forgot my password and reset it like 5 times. All I get is "User not found" however my Profile information is still on the site clear as day.
I'm not sure what to do?
Edit: Thanks Karst

Are you capitalizing just in case that counts? Can you use your email? Can you see a "contact us" button at the bottom of forum pages without being logged in?

They have a new log in system that has basically "I have an account" and then you input a password. Which basically says it's invalid.
I do see the Contact thing so I'll try that.

I forgot your computer was dead.
The lingering hitbox for reflecting on Ness's bat is huge. Or maybe it was because I hit a hydrant. But it completely destroyed this Pac-Man who tried to throw a key at me.

Wasn't it said in the direct? I honestly forgot. I just know we're getting it when the next update drops, which may or may not come with Mewtwo next week.
The update is confirmed to come on the 15th with Mewtwo

So tourney mode is the "public lobbies". Sigh... Why is Nintendo's online so backwards in 2015..

Can someone point to where "public lobbies" comes from then? What's the basis for this?

From my understanding, Tourney Mode works like Communities do in Mario Kart 8. On there, it's basically a big-huge lobby where you join a "community" of players who all agree to play under specific rules, and every win nets you points towards that community's leaderboard. Think of it like matchmaking for an exclusive group; if we made a GAF "tourney," it'd be just GAF players and whoever has the code to our tourney playing with each other.
So yeah, kinda like a public lobby. We could all hang out there and play whoever's on without going on the thread to see who's online at the moment.

Ah, that makes sense. So people are conflating Tourny Mode, public lobbies and communities.
Hopefully they have both: old style Smash Tourny mode and the new style Mario Kart Lobbies.

They do.
They said Tournament Mode and Tourney Mode if I remember it correctly.

This is also my recollection. They talked about both modes separately.

Quote this post to see the link for Season 3 sign-ups:
SMASHGAF RANBATS SEASON THREE
The brackets should be all set up. Every player should be able to edit the results for the bracket. If you are unable to edit your bracket, please let me know and I will fix it.
Season 3 will start on Sunday, April 19.
The results of the first round are due by Sunday, April 26.
BRACKETS:
Link:
[COMING SOON]
SETUP:
Each player belongs to a bracket.
Player names are listed as GAFNAME(NNID).
Each week, you are responsible for playing one new person of your choice - in your bracket by Sunday night.
Record the score in Google Spreadsheets using the invitation you were provided with.
o 1 = Winner.
o 0 = Loser.
o The horizontal cells from your name are your score; the vertical is for reference against who you played against.
The format is Round Robin everyone plays everyone in their bracket once.
IN-GAME RULES:
First to 5 wins takes the set.
1v1.
Customs are legal, items and equipment are not.
Either player may switch characters between matches.
2-stock with a 6-minute timer.
Suicide Clause: if a character initiates a grab-like move that results in the death of both players, the initiating character wins the set.
Time Out Clause: if the match timer hits 0, the player with the lowest damage % wins.
In-game mechanics result in the stage decision (each player picks; game decides).
When starting a set, each player may post two stages that are banned for the set.
For the purposes of this rule, omega-version stages are all one stage.
Additionally, each player may post two omega-version stages that are banned for the set.
Legal stage list:
All For Glory Stages
Battlefield
Smashville
Town and City
Lylat Cruise
Skyloft
Castle Seige
Halberd
Delfino
Duck Hunt
Wuhu Island
GENERAL EXPECTATIONS:
Be honest.
Be respectful.
Be responsible.
GROUNDS FOR REMOVAL:
Dishonest score reports.
Disrespectful conduct.
Consistent failure to play matches on time.
Consistent complaints about connection quality.
FAQ:
What should I do to try and find my matches?
PM people on NeoGAF! Try to work out times instead of hoping it all works out. If a player has been banned, PM me for an e-mail contact.
What if my opponent and I are having trouble making our match happen within the one-week period?
You have a two-week grade period to play each match, but do your best to play your match within the one-week period provided. If you do not play a match one week, you must play two the next to catch up. I will be lenient on ranbans, however, and will only ban a player after the ranbat season has concluded and matches are left unplayed.
What should I do if I have tried to set up a ranbat match with someone, but they are unresponsive?
PM me the evidence of your attempts so that I can make an informed decision regarding ranbans.
Why is <Insert Rule> the case instead of <Insert Other Rule>?
Everything exists as it does because I feel it is a good policy. Nothing is cut into diamond, however, and if the majority player base feels a policy change is needed, I fully welcome discussion on the issue.
Can I join late?
Unless someone drops out mid-season, you will have to wait until the next season begins. There is no player cap, however, so you will be welcome to join when the next season begins.
Can I play ahead, or even finish my entire season right away?
Sure, go for it! I encourage this, actually.
Should I wire my connection?
Hell yes you should! Here are two methods to improve your connection:
1) Wiring your Wii U through an Ethernet adapter is the best option. A wireless connection will never stack up to a wired one. Here is a link to a cheap adapter that many players here use, and it works wonderfully:
http://tinyurl.com/qej8w74
2) If your modem is far away from your Wii U, you can try a Powerline Interner Adapter. These work by channeling your internet connection through an electrical socket. I do not use one personally, but several GAF members have praised their efficacy. Here is a list of options; if a GAF member wants to weigh in on the various levels of quality present here, I am glad to recommend one over the others:
http://tinyurl.com/n7xsckk
How were the brackets decided?
The top player from each bracket moved up to the next bracket. The player with the lowest score in each bracket moved down one bracket. New players, including most returning players, are grouped in a new bracket.
I was banned in the first season. Can I rejoin?
Anyone banned during Season 1 can rejoin the ranbats for Season 3. However, if the player is banned a second time, the ranban will be notably longer. Fool me once, etc.
