[Melee] Hi, I'm Dr.Peepee, ask me anything!

Hey guys, I was asked by Prog to make this post, and it sounded pretty fun so I decided to do it. I love talking to people and about smash so this is right up my alley haha. Like the title says, ask me anything!

I think Dr. PP started smashing after melee at EVO, esp according to his recent post.

Very possible, but still as someone who spent a great deal of time in the community he could have thoughts/opinions.

OH you mean why EVO quit hosting Melee? Okay yeah I've heard about that.

The big reason Melee was dropped off EVO, from my understanding, was because Brawl came out. Brawl was meant to succeed and surpass Melee, so naturally it got its shot at EVO 2008(I wanna say EVO 2008 anyway.) I remember there being awful feedback from the community on the way EVO 2008 was run and it ended with EVO not wanting to run smash in any form anymore. Pretty sad thing based on what I've seen.

That's similar to what I heard only everyone blamed Evo wanting to have items and a lot of heat gets blown back on mew2king although I'm not really sure why.
