    I never thought it was gonna happen in super , but it has! That's right kids the phenomenon that is 69 is back.

    I'm constantly seeing it, and I've only been playing the odd bit of super.

    When I play though I'm playing as ibuki, so it must be something to do with the 3s characters.

    I think Doom might have an issue with this statement...

    Haha, I usually find its 57.

    Started showing up as a percentage on just about every life in Smash Bros years ago and leaked out into every other facet of life.

    I think its huge conspiracy and Heinz controls the world. :eek:

    Indeed, 00 is where it's at.

    I am sure Araforn will agree with me.

    it call the "Murphy law", its when an event (in this case the time end at 69) happen, even if this event happened 1 time on 100 we will only pay attention on this event and over thinking about it. (learnt it from Poker ^^)
    I hope my english explication makes sense ...

    Indeed Tin, sure that point is usually brought up when this phenomenon is discussed. The reason why it does not eliminate it though is because if it was such a case, the 69 phenomenon would have persisted in SF4. But it was gone. Now its back in super.

    Every time I play with ibuki against joe soaps online I'll get a large amount of these.

    Tis back I tell thee!

    Don't get me wrong, I'm not being superstitious , I'm saying its something to do with the mechanics of a character type versus a certain level of player and combinations of other elements.

    Haven't had a session yet on this game where I've not seen this multiple times, I think its ibuki.

    Played Sisko in 20 games there and 69 appeared 7 times.

    WEIRD.
