Good work, the old catalog needed to be updated massively
I think you should remove the pics or at least make them smaller though

f-tilt set ups- http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=175241 by: Tristan_Win
This thread explains how you can get confused by starring at a bunch of numbers for a long time. No wait, it doesn't explain that. You just stare at the numbers for a long time in shock that someone actually took the time to confuse you more than what you already are.
(Will edit with correct info after I get flamed by Tristan.)

-,- ...Really? I come back from halo to have my greatest work teased. The data is very confusing I'll admit it but if you guys gave me some **** feed back I would be more then glad to dumb it down ..AGAIN and AGAIN until people can understand it or at least talk to each and everyone of the people trying to use it until they understand it.

If you can't think what to put then put.
"So you got your Ftilt-Lock down huh? Not sure what you can do to follow it up though, take a peek in on this thread for some ideas."

Also ankoku ftilt lock thread is outdated and more importantly not 100% correct. Meanwhile the other chart I have in my thread is 100% correct for fresh ftilt which is what ankoku thread was all about in the first place.

Hey hey hey hey hey... I'm not done memorizing that thread. :( Put the numbers back on there.

K, I'll remove Ankoku's thread after you finish yours (since it has a rough estimate on when you can f-tilt lock). Yours need to have its data back though. <,<


Oh, and that was a joke (even though you already know that).
Why do I feel like I'm getting pranked?

Well I had my fun, I can't do it this exact second but I'll bring back my data later on tonight and then work on down grading it again.

Basically instead of showing how many frame adventage you get I'm just going to list options for example instead of having 2 frame adv I'll write

"Jab"
"Shield"

I'll also remove all the frame data between the attacks so instead of -1 0 1 2 3 4 you will have

-X_ jab__ Dsmash
__Shield__ Jump

There will also be jump+ aerial, and all of which will be color coded. I might even make watermarks with all of them with the Character in the background of the chart.

~sighs~

I'm thinking by doing this the chart will only be 1/3 as useful as the original data but oh well people don't like doing math while they play a game and when they look at the charts they think they have to memorize them.

which you don't.

This is true, I hate math. I have gotten pretty good at percentages though since I started doing decay in my head.

I like your new idea BTW.

Heh, it's true he never did compete with Sheik but he was a Sheik scientist. I also respect his efforts in bettering Sheik so I used a weaker word then just quit.
