I get on once most days and read the topics, sometimes posting. I never sign off, because there's no point.

I can't get on as much now (as if I got on much in the first place) because suddenly I have work and school. How lousy of life to interfere with my personal agenda. :mad:

When I first got the game, I started making a tiny little scenario about the Ritual of Registration, and you had to perform it against the Shareware Demon. I did this after I had played the full extent of the Av 1-3 and BoA demos. Then I came to my senses and realized how ridiculous I was being.

Favorite Ice Cream flavor? Anything with mint or chocolate

Favorite Arcade Game? DDR. I'm not very good at it though.
Favorite movie made from a cartoon? X-Men, but I didn't even watch the series most of the time.
Favorite place to nap? Uhh… my bed.
Favorite print cartoon? I don't really care.
Do you eat ice-cream during a cold weather? Ice cream is good anytime.
Favorite hour of the DAY to sleep? Whenever I'm tired. Very seldom.
Favorite Age? Meaning what was the year of your life that you enjoyed the most. Doesn't matter. I loved and hated them all pretty much equally.

Eh. My villain's probably gonna suck too. Oh well. Baby steps, I guess.

It's my first scenario. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. Maybe if it's worth the time it would take I'll go back and polish it up sometime after the release.

You know Tully, not everything has to be an attack at other people. If you prefer less posting, feel free to start with yourself. Almost everything I've seen you post has seemed to be for the purpose of pissing off the other people in the forum. Maybe that's not why you post and I've got it all wrong, but it's at least what it seems like.

Why do you still have a PS1 when the PS2 plays PS1 games just fine?

Well, 1, because it's my brother's PS2, and my parents are probably gonna kick him out soon. 2, because there's something wrong with his PS2, and it won't play PS1 games.

Ah, the "sensible" woman... the gamer's downfall. I feel incredibly lucky to have a woman in my life who both understands my gaming and is somewhat interested in it (though doing the whole scenario design bit helps a lot).

Heh, me too. But she plays different games than me. Plus we're not married.

I found freewebs easier to use too. Despite it not exactly working on my old computer.

That said, I got a new computer, so freewebs works for me now. I imported some more graphics, and there's more to come too.

It'd be an interesting idea, if not a successful one. JV wouldn't do it, as has been mentioned. The interface would have to change a lot. Some missions would be interesting to do co-op, or perhaps even vs, but in general, the idea wouldn't work. The whole idea of SDFs would interfere.

Don't listen to Dintiradan. I'm glad someone had the balls to say they'd erase Hitler from history. I was getting tired of all the "oh, I wouldn't want to ruin the time continuum, wah." Makes me sick. Not only is the question hypothetical, but really, is our current world worth keeping the way it is?
I realize it's just hypothetical, but I really don't have an answer there anyway. Besides… it's true. Maybe I've just seen too much Sci-Fi where they use time travel, but my answer was the thought that first came to mind.

Now, as far as the world being worth keeping the way it is, well… that's up for debate. I must agree that I think the same thing every time I hear about someone getting robbed or murdered. Or every time an idiot gets behind the wheel of a car. Or any given time that Michael Jackson is not caged up in a zoo. However, these things can't have been prevented by removing any one person from history anyway.

That's not an entirely fair statement. It makes it sound like I have some sort of control over -X-. I don't.

But don't worry. Dikiyoba wasn't offended by the rant.

Well, it wasn't intended for it to sound like that, but I can see where you're coming from. Basically what I'm saying is that while imitation can be flattering, it's almost invariably at least twice as annoying.

Model of cell phone? Ah hell. Cell phone questions suck.
Jewlery you are wearing? Nil

If you could remove a person from history, who would it be? No no, don't mess with history. You could mess up everything.

The following is just for the sake of making a point. I have otherwise no intention of talking in the third person perspective.

START 3RD PERSON RANT

Here's what Nemesis thinks. Nemesis thinks that -X- should let Dikiyoba be Dikiyoba and stop trying to repeatedly kiss up. Nemesis also thinks -X- should remain silent until he/she has something to say that's worth saying.

END 3RD PERSON RANT

No offense, Dikiyoba. I respect you. But honestly. Worshippers?
