Super Smash Bros. All-Time Merit Ranking (Finale in Issue 194!)

Just a quick update. Some good news and bad news

For the good news, I'm happy to announce that this has been officially approved as a section of the Shroom!

For the bad news, I didn't realize how much things were sneaking up so fast and I admit I probably should have sent in an application earlier then I did. So the debut of this section plus Piranha Plant and Steve will have to go into the December issue instead. This will also mean the January issue characters will have alot more time to be picked. On Sunday, I will give the vote leaderboard as it is currently. But there will be plenty of time and change until the January issue arrives so feel free to wait to vote if need be.

I apologize if anything is a bit of an inconvenience but I didn't want to rush things into the next issue as it is. Getting approved only a few days before the issue is due. But yes, Decemebr is now going to be the new start for the Shroom section. We'll have until December 5th to decide who's going to be the first non-shroom section/#5 of the 2nd batch. December 12th for #4, December 19th for the Top 3 (And thus the 2 heading into the January issue)
 
Ok, once again as I mentioned this will be a long time until things are decided for the January issue. It won't be until December 5th that the first character (Whoever is in 5th place) is locked in. Steve and Piranha Plant are still coming to the December issue of the Shroom. But for now, here's where things stand.

@SonicMario Do you intend to give your opinion at some point on Steve and Wii Fit Trainer in terms of how they stack up in your personal rankings?

Steve and Piranha Plant are being saved for the December shroom issue. The plan was this months, but I applied slightly too late. This next vote is for the January issue
 
December 5th is still the deadline for #5 to be locked in. But thought I'd update what the last few votes have done to the standings

Why is Shulk higher than Toon Link? Shulk has 6 and Toon Link has 8.
