I don't like either of the options too much, but I'll go with Mother 3 here.

Also, fine by me.

Terra is a rather formidable opponent, but I stick to the system of preferences that made me nominate and still give my vote for Awakening.

I felt strangely reminded of "He just kept talking in one long incredibly unbroken sentence, moving from topic to topic, so that no one had the chance to interrupt him; it was really quite hypnotic."

Wipe the fingerprints and greasy stains off that glass pane.

I mean, ew.

Chrono Cross for 3, being an easy choice; Mega Man 3 for 4, although the Tales song isn't quite bad either.

Sorry, what?

Do something about your grammar and orthography before you start posting again; also, put a bit more work and thought into your threads than half a minute.

I'm closing this.

I vote for Zelda and .hack//G.U..

While the Zelda song also is bland and somewhat boring, I really don't find the F-Zero song appealing at all.

In Match 6, both songs are rather nice, but the FF one is somewhat more repetitive and less interesting from my point of view.

I'm nearly all the way through F/SN's Fate route (although I didn't get around to progress lately, I used it to great effect to procrastinate through exam preparation) and have been enjoying it so far (in spite of the protagonist being a raging dickhead).

Furthermore, I have been considering trying Saya no Uta for a long time; it has a tremendous reputation.

If F/SN's translation (which I had a brief glimpse at) is of any indication, English translation patches for that kind of games seem to be rather bad. It's not that they are outright incorrect, just that the translators' command of and eloquence in English does not seem remotely adequate to convey the sesquipedalian loquaciousness of the original, making the product sound comparatively dull, linguistically uninteresting and repetitive.

If I would hesitate to use it, it would be not for want of permission. I really don't see how waiting for somebody's permission to use their stuff, especially if they neglect to provide a channel over which such permission could be requested, would mesh in with the other stuff ROM hackers usually do, unless you subscribe to some kind of "they/evil corporations with no rights vs. our kind/normal people" thinking, anyway. It's as if you refused to do archeology because you couldn't obtain permissions from the original residents of the excavated area or their distant descendants.

As a little heads-up, we now have minipics.

Also bumped the board version up an infinitesimal.

This comes fairly close, modulo weird monitor calibration.

Then, there's a couple of radiant darker colours that I can't really adequately reproduce on a computer screen, at least not on mine.

Yes. It was 11x11 in 1.x too.

I really don't see why we can't make the usernames larger. I think that would look kickass. Or maybe we could have another one of those dumbass items enabling you to have a 16x16 minipic. It would make your name bigger too. And it could be called e-peen.

Might as well just switch to IPB.

Seriously, having a compact layout that doesn't distract from the actual posts with too many pointless UI elements always was one Acmlmboard's strongest points. I would be very unwilling to sacrifice that just to conform to an entirely arbitrary size that only is in fashion because back in some forgotten age, it was faster to blit things that are powers of two in size.

Ailure: I don't know, but using the vertical-align:middle setting it had in 1.x actually makes them appear lower by several pixels (and thus -below- the text) for me in both Firefox and Chrome...

Minipics are not the place if you want to share vocaloid porn with the masses anyway. If you don't think you can fit something in minipics, don't use them.

Added erasing for both minipics and avatars.

Allowed GIFs.

Enough of this. Going to sleep.

> standardized size
Please show me the RFC for minipics.

Rainbow colored usernames aren't really much of a UI element. They'd also be trivial to implement. It's just that nobody requested anything like that yet.

The problem with larger minipics is that they would stretch the page header beyond the size it needs to be. Sure, it seems like a tiny and insignificant thing to argue about, but in the end, it's just a long string of those tiny and insignificant changes that each could easily be defended with a "why not" or "other somethings do it that way" that separate us from the utter annoyance that is your average larger-scale forum system these days. I fight such changes on principle because I see nothing to gain from larger minipics ("People could fit more on them!" might as well be used to argue for 400x400 avatars) and a lot to lose in the long term if such argumentation is accepted as valid for a particular change.
