sure random factor gets lower in 10 stock matches but then (for me) the factor boredom for using the same character and stage rises. For me even 3 lifes is too much, if you noticed yesterday sometimes i took you 2 lifes and you always caught me up. Maybe is just me relaxing or start to be predictable.
as for tournaments, the smashboards must have some (there are so many kinds).
@xcot, is there an american league here? (all i see is an official super smash bros thread, is not a league)
we have 3 now to participate in a league... anyone want to go ahead with it?
