Welcome smashers!

This place is pretty empty right now, but I’d love it to be a welcoming community of Smash players. To that end, what kind of posts do you want to see when you come here? Memes, combo videos, discussions, or something else? Let’s discuss it and build the community we want to see.

I’d also love feedback on the rules. Are there any missing? Is the language clear enough? Let me know.

      100% this, that was my favorite thing from the old community. If we don’t have the tourney threads and the congrats to the winner of ____ posts, it won’t be the same. I have some basic api experience with start.gg’s API, so I could try to make a bot in my free time. No promises though. All mid set updates would have to be done manually too.

        Automated results threads for known majors would be incredible & monumental in bringing people over.

          I’m trying, but so far set threads have to be done manually due to most tourneys not updating start.gg on a game by game basis. The pre tournament thread and final results threads are making good progress though.

      Love those too! Pretty sure they’re posted manually? Or at least they don’t appear to be made by a dedicated bot account. It’s up to us to be the change we want to see.

      Although setting up a bot to poll from start.gg and automatically make those posts sounds like a fun weekend project.

      Ooh, that sounds good. While it feels sinful to ask, could you link an example from R*ddit? Then we have a template to go off of.
