I liked the SMB3 ones the most. SMW ones weren't too far behind though. I should try finding mpegs or avis of some of those old fav episodes of mine or something. Think anyone on a torrent would have them?  |

Yea, DS, if you press select (map screen button) while you're in the middle of switching screens, you get warped to the opposite end of the new screen you would be on. But it doesn't work in DX  It's fun to do that glitch in caves.  I managed to get the instrument for Eagle's Tower without ever gettin the sword... but then I got stuck on the tower entrance because there was no door.  |

| ...dude, it was poking fun at Microsoft. For one, communism isn't bad. Totalitarianism is. I'm Marxist after all. Am I bad? Anyway, it said a friendly reminder from your friends at Microsoft or whatever for a reason. It was making fun of them more than anything. Nothing needed to be done to the pic to imply that it was ok to use open source. |

| Screw ranks and seeding. I just randomly pitted people against each other (Anya, you better be here for this ) Match 1: Yoshi Dude vs. Felix Match 2: Drag vs. Anya Match 3: Kefka vs. skateboarder11 Match 4: neotransotaku vs. drjayphd Winner of Match 1 vs. Winner of Match 2 in semis Winner of Match 3 vs. Match 4 in semis Semi winners in finals. And that is what the random drawing has led to You decide how many games you play or whatever when you meet your opponent. Find a time to play, pick a room, and then go to it. Report the wins whenever. When everyone has reported the results, I'll just make the next round matchups, which seems pretty easy since they're mapped out above. As for whoever faces me (sb11 as of now), I like to play best of 9 (whoever wins 5 first). Just to let ya know. Good luck to all. And maybe if I'm not too lazy I'll make some cheap trophy for the winner. |

| Yea, so GameFAQs sucks, ok? So we'll be doing things our own way here. They decide their best little game ever. WE decide the best video game SOUNDTRACK ever. Touch choice, eh? Yea, there are plenty to choose from. Which is why we are kinda taking the "tourney" idea from them. And by "we" well... someone else came up with teh format besides me. They can reveal themselves if they wish. Anyway, what we are going to do is this: gather up as many nominations for your fav game soundtracks as possible and then vote on your favorites to limit it down to 64. And then the fun starts. But for now, we just need nominations. It would be most preferable if you nominated at least 5, at most 10. But nominate however many you want (but no more than 10, you selfish pig ). OK, so it would also be nice, when you add your nominations, if you just quote the list and then add onto it. That would be great. Thanks. OK, well, let's get this sucker started! (I added a nice dark horse or two in here. If you haven't heard some of these 'tracks, download the spcs/usfs/gyms/whatever or something and LISTEN TO EM!) And pleae please please put the system it's on; and if it has a WinAmp format, please list that too. This helps others who might want to listen to a soundtrack to vote but haven't heard it find the files to listen to it easier. Oh, and also, DO NOT NOMINATE A SOUNDTRACK BECAUSE ITS GAME IS COOL! We are voting based on the music in the game alone, k? Thanks. 1. Final Fantasy VI (SNES,PSX-spc,psf) 2. Seiken Densetsu 3 (SNES-spc) 3. Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64,GCN-usf) 4. Demon Crest (SNES-spc) 5. Golden Sun: The Lost Age (GBA) 6. Chrono Trigger (SNES,PSX-spc,psf) 7. Metroid Prime (GCN) 8. Kirby Super Star (SNES-spc) 9. Parasite Eve (PSX-psf) 10. Final Fantasy Tactics (PSX-psf) OK, remember the premises for which you nominate. Now go to it  EDIT: all edits were just for clarification (edited by Kefka on 05-31-04 04:07 AM) (edited by Kefka on 05-31-04 04:08 AM) (edited by Kefka on 05-31-04 04:12 AM) |

| Ok. What I had in mine was: you quote the last message. You then remove blockquote and hr tags. And all that junk. You merely add your numbers to the list. I wasn't planning on having quote pyramids =\ Also, this list was supposed to help prevent duplicate nominations. That is what the voting is for. We vote for our fav 'tracks after a bunch of nominations. But no need for duplicate nominations. So I've fixed up the list a bit. 1. Final Fantasy VI (SNES-spc) 2. Seiken Densetsu 3 (SNES-spc) 3. Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64-usf) 4. Demon Crest (SNES-spc) 5. Golden Sun: The Lost Age (GBA) 6. Chrono Trigger (SNES-spc) 7. Metroid Prime (GCN) 8. Kirby Super Star (SNES-spc) 9.

Final Fantasy Tactics (PSX-psf) 11 - Super Mario RPG - spc - Super Nintendo 12 - Megaman X1 - spc - Super Nintendo 13 - Final Fantasy 5 - spc/psf - Super Nintendo and Playstation 14 - Donkey Kong Country 2 - spc - Super Nintendo 15 - Chrono Cross - psf - Playstation 16 - Final Fantasy Mystic Quest - spc - Super Nintendo 17 - Donkey Kong Country 1 - spc - Super Nintendo 18 - Dynasty Warriors 4 - psf2 - Playstation 2 19 - Final Fantasy 7 - psf - Playstation 20 - Secret of Mana - spc - Super Nintendo 21.

Kururin Paradise (GBA, sappy) 30. Super Bomberman 3 (SNES, spc) Now, use that list as your working model for the future. Quote it, highlight all the text, whatever works. Just please don't make quote pyramids  EDIT: I added Super Bomberman 3 by Kawaii's request in IRC. (edited by Kefka on 05-31-04 04:31 AM) (edited by Kefka on 05-31-04 04:45 AM) |

| Well, since I need to make at least one post daily for poor Knuxor, and I was just talking to Kitten Yiffer about this on AIM... Anyway, some of you may be thinking I'm a lunatic for saying this. Well, I will show you some info here from the CIA World Factbook, which shows some pretty important numbers... some favoring America, others not. And actually, this article makes a big argument for Denmark > Sweden. But I like Sweden better. And no, it's not just becuase Kitten Yiffer is there. And now, for some information that should be impartial: Denmark's GDP per capita (PPP): $31,200 Finland: $27,300 (plus the best education system in the world) Iceland: $30,900 (severely less than it would be otherwise, because it is in purchasing power parity and prices in Iceland are very high indeed, which reduces the impact of the wealth) Norway: $37,700 Sweden: $26,800 USA: $37,800 (prices in America are the cheapest in the "developed" world) Now what happens if we take away the top 10%? In the USA, the top 10% have 30.5% of everything (and that is 1997, so they probably have a bigger share now). Denmark: 24% (2000), Finland: 21.6% (1991), Iceland: (impossible to do, because the CIA World Factbook says: NA%, damn!), Norway: 21.8% (1995) and Sweden: 20.1% (1992). OK, so let us see the comparisons when we take the top 10% in each country out of the equation: Denmark: $23,712 Finland: $21,403.2 Iceland: $NA Norway: $29,481.4 Sweden: $21,413.2 USA: $26,271 Now, there is another measurement of prosperity, which is arguably the most important economic indicator, life expectancy. Denmark: 77.44 years Finland: 78.24 years Iceland: 80.18 years Norway: 79.25 years Sweden: 80.3 years USA: 77.43 years In Sweden, people live almost 3 years longer than people in the USA, which indicates a better quality of life. And, after all, isn't quality of life the whole point? It would be quite interesting to find out what the life expectancy is without the top 10%, but unfortunately, I could not find any helpful information on that in the CIA World Factbook. The USA had a quite substantial lead over the average Nordic country when the GDP is taken at face value, but the lead was greatly lessened when the top 10% were removed. At face value the USA was $11,000 in front of Sweden. After the 10% were removed, the lead was less than $5000 (and that is not including that fact that the USA spends more on helathcare and education that anyone else! Finland spends $6000 per school student per year, the USA spends $10,240, and Finland has the best education system in the world. The USA spends the most on healthcare than any other country, yet has only the 37th best healthcare system). And yes, I talked to a "friend" before using these arguments. Ok, there is something that Denmark and Sweden have that we don't. That is, EQUAL oppurtunity. Or at the very least, more equal oppurtunity. They aren't completely equal by any means. In America, if you have someone that was born in a rich family, we know full well that they will have a way better chance to succeed in life than someone who was born in an impoverished family. People that have grown up in rich families have oppurtunity to better education and better health oppurtunities than someone growing up in a poor family. And now, this comes back to the "extra rights you can buy" idea that I somewhat mentioned. People who grow up in rich families have oppurtunity to essentially have superior rights to someone in a poor family. The poor family, as already mentioned, must be limited to free education, and the public education system right now in America is not that great. The rich people however, who can spend lots of extra money, spend that money to send their children to an education that almost gives them a guaranteed ticket to college. And it certainly is not because of work THEY did. It may be because of work their parents did, but not themselves. Yet, they already have an advantage over the poor kid, who also had no control over what they were born into. In Sweden, no matter what class you are born into, you will be in the same public school system. And their public school system in Sweden is not crap by any means. On health, the rich kid has a much better oppurtunity to go without any diseases throughout their childhood than the poor kid. Again, the equal health care rights to everyone in Sweden fixes this. You can not buy "extra" health care. This is not so much about closing the gap between rich and poor, codenothing, this is about giving everyone an EQUAL oppurtunity to start their life. In America, you have oppurtunity, yes, but if you are born rich, you already have a huge advantage over poor kids. Every kid should have the SAME chance when they are born of getting to college and getting those degrees you mentioned. Granted, there will be some who don't get that far anyway, and some who will get that far, and then, yes, they should be earning much more than the kid who didn't. But what matters is that the other kid had an equal chance. I'm not saying that the rich and poor gap HAS to be closed, but everyone HAS to have the same economic and legal rights, so that we all have the same oppurtunity to succeed in this country. And the way Sweden handles it makes them much closer to being an equal oppurtunity country than we are. Which is why their economy policy is better, Zerato. Now, with equal oppurtunity, yes, you will probably find that the gap between rich and poor will shrink. But that is because everyone must work the same from the start to get more money, as opposed to those already on top not having to work as hard as those on the bottom. Get it? Ok, so in review, if you have equal oppurtunity, you have equal healthcare, equal pension, equal tax %, equal everything. So you choose whether you are going to be rich or poor, as opposed to being forced into it. They have CHOICE as to their social class in Sweden and Denmark! That is why they have such a closeness between the rich and poor in those countries. They all have to work just as hard to make the same amount of money. And they are all getting the same education, and same health care. "Is this possible in a corporate-heavy America?" some might ask. Well, yes, it is a matter of commitment. Another thing that Sweden has that we don't is strong workers' unions. Unionization seems to be discouraged in this country. If we can have some government people that support unions the same way, say, Cesar Chavez did, and then the unions become strong enough in this country, then they can essentially force the government into giving them equal rights, instead of rights with an extra cost. So I think it is very possible to have a great state of equality for all classes like they have in Sweden and Denmark. But the only problem with it here is that some people will be sayin "OOH! That's socialism! That's bad!" or "Well, the corporations won't profit at all from that!"... we may be too set on capitalism... Anyway, that will be my one post for today, unless there are some arguments here. Feel free to vote in the poll, but do so only after reading this. This was my argument for why Kitten Yiffer lives in a better society than I do. |

| I am still going to take credit as the father of video game-related trivia quizzes in this forum Anyway, I actually quite like Mega Man 6. So I am going to answer this question, for I know all the attacks and weaknesses of the bosses in that game quite well. I'm not sure if one of the special things you are looking for is what the attack looks like, but oh well: WIND BLAST 1. The attack is a whirlwind attack, as opposed to the straight bullet. 2. The attack is super effective against Flame Man, and the machine that shoots bubbles in the second to last level. I'm not sure what it's called, and I'm not sure if there are any more bosses weak against it. I just know that this does more damage than the Buster to those bosses for sure. |

| I may not particularly like John Kerry that much... I think he's a bit too conservative in every sense of the word. But then again, Bush is even more conservative and authoritarian than he is! And so, I hate Bush... just thought I'd get that out of the way... for all those moderates and Kerry supporters though, reading this transcript thoroughly should loosen you up a bit!

| And because claymation is included, I must say that The Nightmare Before Christmas, from Tim Burton, is one of the greatest pieces of animation ever, and certainly the great claymation ever. It took 5 years to create that movie! It was brilliance, in every sense of the word! Besides, I find the plot quite entertaining, and the movie itself as entertaining. The only reason I know this stuff is because I am learning to do claymation in Animation class right now. So, since there are too many animated movies to make a poll, I will let everyone tell us directly what their fav is, and why, or if not why, then what makes the movie great anyway. |
