All is Brawl - The new SSB community center

[Nintendude1189]

www.allisbrawl.com/

This is an SSB site made by SSB fans for SSB fans. I think it can basically be a replacement for Smashboards, as it has a lot more useful SSB-related features and is moderated by leaders in the SSBM community, not random people who just happened to join ages ago (like on Smashboards).

Right now features include:
-An integration with the tia tournament archive.
-Tournament statistics on every player who goes to tournaments.
-Discussion boards for everything SSB-related
-Video archives for vs. mode and Stadium.
-Stadium discussion boards.
-High score databases for registered members.
-Brawl and SSB64 online matchmaking chatrooms.

There's much more to come. Basically, any good idea out there will be added to the site, since nealdt, the creator, wants to make this the best SSB site ever.

I encourage you all to join!

btw, r1k, you should join and make the SSBM 10-Man Melee topic there. I already made it, but nealdt made me a stadium moderator, so I can edit regardless of who made it. If you make one I'll delete the old one. So, I think you should make it. Rav made the Brawl topic already.

edit:

I joined last night. Looks light a good site. I probably won't be on there much till I get Brawl though.

Won't get the game before PAL release, but i'll sign up now

The site isn't totally about Brawl. It's meant to support all 3 SSB games. Stelzig you should make some of the SSBM MMM topics there if you wish. It'll be good to have in case there are new community members there who would like to play SSBM's Stadium. Also you guys should be able to enter your scores soon. nealdt said he'd have the leaderboard functionality running before Brawl comes out.
