You can store ice in a time period?

And really, windwaker, I'm not seeing the point behind your post. You may have been cut off too soon, maybe by parents or pets, or maybe your mistake at the end just killed any meaning in your post.

I'll be here, or banned. One or the other.

It'll probably no longer be Acmlm's Board, perhaps due to a hostile takeover by Ziff, or Jesper accidentally deleting all traces of Acmlm's existence...

At least a third of the current staff will get themselves temporarily or permanently banned by then...

That's all I can think of.

But you could use IE specific css (a la * html) and use the alpha filter.

Yes, but wouldn't that make it not work in Firefox, as Firefox doesn't have support for alpha in CSS?
Well unless Firefox shits itself when it comes across code it doesn't support, you shouldn't have much of a problem.

I wouldn't know, though, having not had the chance to use Firefox.

windwaker, just read Jesper's new thread on the subject. He clearly stated that he'd rather have people posting this publicly than using PMs. I quote him...

"And I'd like it if you ran *here* instead of to me and ||bass regarding fixing exploits on your boards."

Not many, to be honest.

Honestly, I don't think any video game magazine should put April Fool's jokes in, especially if the magazines come a month early. It only leads to annoying rumors and legions of idiots that believe them.

Alright, I'm sick of this browser bashing bullshit.

I use IE. It works well enough for what I need it to do. I don't need every page to look perfect, as long as it's readable. Which, most of the time, it is; the only exceptions are due more to shitty layouts and color choices than my choice of browser - or, because of assholes blocking IE from viewing their site.

You'll disagree with me, fine. Don't really care, honestly. I just figured I'd throw in my off-topic-two-cents, since everyone else was.

But, back on topic, good job on the layout, ww. Even though it doesn't work perfectly in IE, it still looks good. If only I could see more layouts that work that well.

DK's level, when your in the air after getting shot out by the barrel cannon. You can get hit, but it just disappears. Your invincble while flying. The same with that sucking tube thing in Rainbow road.
Also the pipe on Daisy Cruiser, where you drop down the hole after a 90-degree turn. Best to have at least 4 Acceleration if you plan to go down there... Any place that makes you immune to the Lightning Bolt works on the Blue Shell, as far as I can tell.

I don't mind being hit by the Blue Shell that much, though, unless I'm hit by a red shell just before that, and a Bowser Shell right after. That's happened a lot. Usually, though, I use either Toad's Kart or the Boo Pipes; the acceleration's good, and I usually catch a faster car with less acceleration in the blast as well.

Actually, Dekk, at your board, I can't edit my password. Still. I said that there, though.

I can edit my layout just fine, but... well, no luck on the password.

uh, how bloody were they, Tarale? Not bloody enough, I'd bet. I remember those fangirls from middle school. Made me consider throwing the chairs at them instead of the teachers, they did.

And no, I'm not making fun of how you post, so don't get mad at me.


Overrated... well, honestly, most of the ones you hear people talking about. But, ugh, especially Paris Hilton. What's she done? Three annoying-as-hell reality TV shows? Yeah, that's about it, to my knowledge. Beyond that, well... Seph and Jarukoth said it better than I could.

I can lay claim to 6 in a row, that being with less than five seconds between each one.

But then again, I could easily go through the race without hitting a single car. And I always put my banana peels in the middle of the road. No cars go there, but chances are if you slip on it you'll go right into a car. I never followed one set path; I'd go in and out of traffic, go across the track to the other edge... kept shells off me.

Tough call. Both were banned for stupidity, though seagram also had "spam" in his list of reasons. Since tinzee was banned, according to his title, purely for stupidity... I'm gonna say he wins, by driving seagram insane.

HyperHacker vs. Parasyte, I guess.

Bah. I miss that shortcut half the time anyway, hit the wall, and fall to the ground. Then I just say 'screw it', grab a Triple Red Shell (never fails, never fails) and blast the unfortunate jackass- uh, friend, I mean, that was able to take the shortcut.

I kinda wish MK: DD let you fall farther, like in MK64...

Edit: DAMN, you people post fast. Or I'm just slow.

Fyxe, consider the viewpoint of the games you compared. Minsh Cap, LttP, and (I think; don't know, though) Four Swords Adventures are all a top view, while Windwaker is more of an OoT-like viewpoint, though with an easily-adjustable camera.

The only thing that hurt my eyes in Windwaker was the almost-monocolor water, since it was everywhere. Aside from that, I liked the graphics style...

Yes, it's obvious that they're upside down, Kitten Yiffer. But I guess Nintendo believe that you'll be too concentrated on your driving that you would bother to know the fakeness of the item box in front of you that you... *BOOM!* Oh, too bad.

They're a lot easier to see in Double Dash, since they turn solid red as you approach. Makes them completely freaking worthless; at least in MK64 you could stick 'em in a patch of real ones, and have a shot of hitting someone. I've dropped them right on top of normal ones before, so... It also works better on smaller TVs, say... 13" or so, which is what I have.

Yes, but my point in bringing that up is that someone might like a graphics style in one viewpoint, yet dislike it in another. Very possible.

Fair enough. THis would bring up my OTHER theory. Both are obviously very stupid. The fight would go nowhere until the audience chipped in with some bricks.


Ziff vs. NSNick... I'm gonna go with NSNick. Partially because Ziff decided to call himself the winner, and partially 'cause NSNick's cooler. And he posts less, from what I've seen, so he probably has more of a life outside the board.

Dracoon vs. Kefka, since no one else answered that one. I'm going wiht Dracoon here. I don't recall him getting banned. It would be close, but then Kefka would do something that'd result in a bucket of grey paint being dropped on him, knocking him out or blinding him (depends on if the bucket has a lid or not) long enough for Dracoon to get the finishing blow in.



Zem vs. Ziffski - battle of the Zs!
