Sausage and I have talked much trash over which of the two of us could best own the board at original Super Smash Bros. He swears it's him and I'm inclined to believe him, but considering my social life was almost solely based around that game for about five years of my life, I find it somewhat hard to buy.
And I could probably take everyone on this board and 99.99% of real people in a popular music NTT competition (with possible exceptions for Scott, WhoDoYouThink, Rob Gordon and Mitch, if it was an equally slated US/UK NTT).

Smash Bros though, it's ridiculous, people usually couldn't come close to beating me.

Here's Robert A. Heinlein's list of what you should be able to do:
QUOTE
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently and die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.
I can manage 19 of those without getting anyone killed.

I can do the lotus position and walk around on my knees. I can drive and parallel park any vehicle, and I have been told I am a mighty fine bassist. Also, I can go a long time without sleep on a regular basis and still be functional. I can hear any song on the radio, and make up good parody lyrics. I have posted a couple of these in the past. I can also eat like a goddamn hog.

I play guitar and I think my biggest strength is my ear and picking up quickly off what others are playing.
I also derived my own fooseball defensive scheme that works better in doubles, but can still be pulled off in singles.
I was starting to pride my poker game, but since I started reading Dan Harrington's book and I'm considering pot odds and his hand analysis, my game's taken a step back because it's clouded my thought processes. Hopefully when I digest this stuff I'll be better for it.
