Yes, the more technical term for this is tripping. We need to move this. {{User:Knife/sig}} 22:35, 28 October 2008 (EDT)

Where is the official source for the name? And how is "Tripping" more technical than "Slipping"? --{{User|Garlic Man}}
:It could technically be both I guess. With the banana peel, it is slipping obviously, but when the charcter falls on their own, I guess that it's tripping.--{{User:Gamefreak75/Sig}}
Do we even need this article? It's nothing notable, just a feature that would also fit in the game's article as well. We don't have articles for game modes, so why should we have articles for features? I suggest that this info is moved into the game article. - {{User:Edofenrir/sig}} 22:16, 8 January 2010 (EST)
::[[Break the Targets!]], [[Subspace Emissary]](in fact, it used to be part of the Brawl article, but was separated), [[Home-Run Contest]], [[Multi-Man Brawl]], etc. to name a few game mode articles from the SSB series. --{{User|Garlic Man}}
:::Then we have an inconsistency here, because everywhere else, game mode articles like those get merged into their respective game articles. Why should SSB get a special treatment? - {{User:Edofenrir/sig}} 23:55, 8 January 2010 (EST)
::::Technically, Home-Run Contest, Break the Targets and Multi-Man Brawl are more like minigames then modes. That brings up a question: which is more major? The minigames or the modes? {{User:Reversinator/sig}}
:::::The mini-game comment Reversinator made makes sense. [[Tulip Shooter]] and [[Flutter Challenge]] from YIDS have articles as well(Just like there is no "YIDS Mini-game mode" article, there is no "Stadium mode" article for Brawl; only the games within the game mode). And the Subspace Emissary was split because the Brawl article was simply becoming much too lengthy, IIRC. --{{User|Garlic Man}}
:Sounds reasonable.--{{User:Gamefreak75/Sig}}
I think it's called "Pratfalling" because I saw in the VS records called "Number of Pratfalls" and think it means "tripping". Eh, actually, what do you think? {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}
:I don't think it is pratfalling because I remember seeing the exact same record in Melee.--{{User:Gamefreak75/Sig}}
::Nah, pratfalling isn't in the VS record in Melee. It's a bonus. But Brawl has it. And I don't know what that means since it doesn't explain it. {{User:BabyLuigiOnFire/sig}}
:::The page's name on SmashWiki is "Prat Falling". Just so you know. [[User:Toomai|Toomai]] 19:05, 13 April 2010 (EDT)
Yes, prat falling is the correct term. {{User:Supermariofan14/sig}}
The correct and official term is "Pratfalling", my reference is the record screen!<br>I'm moving it if no one opposes?{{User:Young Master Luma/sig}}
Does the word "Pratfall" have any roots? - [[User:Billtn|Bill-tendo]] 23:02, 15 April 2012 (EDT)
