Yeeeeow. Our most competitive match yet. Scores were trumped, trumped again, and newcomer Crav came along and kicked everyone's ass. But in the end, persistance paid off, because his nasty score was topped not once, but twice! I barely managed to stay in the rankings, then had a BEAUTIFUL stroke of luck and finished with an insane amount of coins, letting me back into first. I was most pleased, as I was ready to give up and settle for a losery 1 point.

....I notice that Marilink didn't play this one at all. That sucks. At least he still claims the overall #2 spot, and I'm sure he'll hold onto it.
Now, the scores! First is Tubbo with 1288, which I couldn't have gotten without the Melee gods on my side (heh), and second comes Yoshimaster with his amazing 994. And somehow, pushed into third is Cravdraa with his 992, who frankly I expected to **** all over everyone else's scores. He certainly gave that impression. But everyone else also played very well, and their scores merit a listing:
Koga- 853, and initially our holder of the #1 spot
007- 804, a good start, but unfortunately, trumped all too easily
PM- 719, not bad at all, given the circumstances!
Knux- 467, eheheheh, I can't make fun of this, for all too many times I got KOed in the last few moments and ended with a score right around here.
Aaaaaaaaaaaand the rankings! Jumbled up a little bit-
Tubster/Ganondorf: 6
Marilink/Dr. Mario: 5
Yoshimaster/Yoshi: 5
Koga/Falco: 2
Knux/Pikachu: 1
Cravdraa/Ness: 1
PM/Jigglypuff: 0
007/Capt. Falcon: 0
(Anyone without points that also misses a match is dropped from the rankings, as has been done with Chunky. If he returns, though, he's still expected to use Mr. Game & Watch.)
And finally, our next challenge. As I promised, every 5th match will be a battle without extreme, or even slightly crazy conditions; simply you and the computers in a fight for survival. As such, this is a stock match. If your Melee skills are looking good, you should bode well.

The time limit on this is quite generous; you should be finished well before the time is up. Being a stock match, your final score will be based on the amount of KOs you inflicted. This is a pretty annoying level to play on, so try to pummel your foes without self destructing (even if it's irrelevant to the actual score) and don't let their stock go to waste on an SD, too. G&W shouldn't provide much of a challenge at all, and AI-controlled Marth is easy to dispose of. Peach, on the other hand, can be very annoying if allowed. Deal with her carefully!
