Posted on 06-14-05 04:35 PM, in Jackson Case : Not Guilty Link
I expected it. I think he probably should have been found guilty on at least one of the counts, but I expected him to be found Not Guilty on all charges. I also expected, in the unlikely event of him being found Guilty on any/all of them, there would be riots. Perhaps it's a good thing he was found Not Guilty...

I just wish the five-o'clock news would have said something other than this. They were talking about this for the whole damn hour; I didn't even see the weather forecast.

I hate fans. Air conditioning and walking in the pool (I, uh... can't swim) are the only things I'll do.

I also keep my window open at night in the winter, though...

Oh, fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck. Why do you people torture me so?

3. Link to the Past. I'm a Zelda bitch, I guess.

4. Chrono Trigger. The big decider here is the singleplayer; I am not a big multiplayer gamer...

I'm going nowhere, unless people aren't happy with my job. I've adminned two other boards in addition to running my own and being a mod at Tek, I know the work involved.

Though I haven't figured out where the green-ness came from...

Just so ya know, I edited the thread title based on your previous request, Schwa. If you'd like it changed back, or to something else, tell me.

Hrm... I'm gonna go with SMW. I suck at Donkey Kong anyway. Now, my mom on the other hand, she's pretty damn good at Donkey Kong.

I am currently speaking English. As for my spellings, I seem to use a mix of British and American spelling...

And I can't speak any other language, although knowing my Spanish teacher maybe I know some French.

Posted on 06-17-05 06:45 AM, in Apparently I've been here for a year. But there's another purpose to this thread, I promise. Link
I've been here, between this and the old board, for about... I joined in February 03. left in February 04, returned in July 04... so, almost two years, I'm estimating. I've been banned, I've been a somewhat normal user, I've been a local mod for a day, and a full mod now. I got Bronze for Best Newbie in the first Mosts that I was here for, and I believe I got Bronze for Best RPer in the last Mosts. I've finished High School, and thus far have been unsuccessful in my job search. And this has been one of my only available options for semi-intelligent debate - my mother having an 'I'm always wrong because I'm just a kid' attitude about me kills any chance of discussion with her, and my stepdad's not serious enough to carry on a debate.

Whew, I think that's all.

Not so easy anymore? I tought so...

...and if this STILL doesn't convaince you... then go to the Special World and be amazed by levels worthy of SMB2J! I still think Outrageous and Tubular are yet to be beaten in terms of frustration.

Even Mario Sunshine's totally evil boss battles (CURSE YOU STINGRAY!) and retro stages cannot outdo SMW's Special World.

As such, SMW doesn't win the award.

Featherspam: I only did it after already clearing the level. Game beaten, every level cleared, without featherspam.

Special World: Yeah, that's included. Tubular and Outrageous are probably the only mildly difficult levels in SMW.

I have, however, considered hanging whoever designed Tubular. But, becuase it's not a required level to get to the final boss, it falls under the 'optional' section, just like FFV's Shinryuu and FFT's Elidibs - they aren't required to clear the game, and therefore do not affect the game's overall difficulty. The difficulty is something you force on yourself.

Oh, I almost forgot something. I could speak Russian back when I was five.

Unfortunately, I don't remember any of it.

FF3, SMB3, Zelda 2, Zelda, SMB.

Not much of an NES person, myself. I'm more into SNES...

In all honesty, I'll probably be covering FF as long as I'm able. And it wouldn't take much to check in on Online Gaming while I'm at it.

Debate has Ziff and myself poking in pretty often anyway, so it's covered by full mods.

Well-made, but just not my cup of tea. Bit too light for me.

Then again, I use Night, so it obviously doesn't take much to be too light for me.

Had to unblock your layout to see it...

But, it's a good one. And it gets +10 points for being Lego.

Ah, those are bad here? Gotcha. Rules are different everywhere I go...

And if it's long-windedness you want, I'll give you long-windedness.

Final Fantasy 3 is, in my opinion, one of the best in the series beaten only by Final Fantasy Tactics. The only part I hated were the Mini dungeons, where you had to go through in Mini status.

SMB3... it's SMB3. Fun, challenging enough, and a lot of items. What else has to be said?

Zelda 2... it's different from the others, but that doesn't make it bad by any means. Pretty good graphics, and the hardest Zelda game I've played. Maybe it's because I'm more of a thinker than a fighter; not many puzzles in the game.

Zelda... Not as hard as Z2, and in the same style as LttP. A few items, eighteen levels, and for the time pretty good music.

SMB... Similar to SMB3, but simpler. Simpler isn't always bad, though. In this case, it's quite good. I remember 2-3... still I hate that level, still I curse under my breath every time a jumping fish hits me or screws up my jump. And 7-3's more of the same, but worse. Aside from that, fun game.
