To be fair, the European date system is worse than ours for computing/databasing purposes, because it can't be easily alphabetized (and the year typically isn't that important). Japan's is objectively the best I suppose, but it puts the least important information first which makes it a little awkward to abbreviate like we do when we just put month/day.

Maybe peanut butter is like America's vegemite.

word. peanutbutter is like an american thing. like in vietnam, salted nuts are popular, but not peanutbutter
damn you george washington carver!!!!

 

[Sudai]

Typically if I'm alphabetizing by date, I'd rather order it by Year > Month > Day. Under a general case of course. Honestly, that's probably why we use MM/DD/YYYY. Switch the YYYY to the front without too much confusion or drop it off for the abbreviation.

Actually, probably not -why- we use it but a nice side effect.

Yeah, I like the Japanese way the best (and not just because it's Japanese XP). And when they abbreviate, they put month/day, btw. I think some of them use day/month, but I don't think it's as common as it used to be. America has very strong English influences on Japan, and this goes for some formats too.

I've determined after my vacation that Charleston is a bomb-*** city. I would potentially move there.

 

[stingers]

I've noticed american systems tend to be based on practicality moreso than usability.

For example, in temperature. Humans are able to notice differences in minute differences in temperature, something that the celsius system has more trouble with due to the lesser range of "outdoor" temperatures. However, for mathematics and science, celsius is a lot more friendly.

Also, for measuring. In practical terms, most people use measurements to refer to their own height or those around them. 5'9" is a lot easier to deal with than 1.7526 meters, you know?

Of course I'm biased due to growing up with it, but it just seems more user-friendly for practical, non-scientific purposes.

 

[GwJ]

How do the Japanese write their dates out?

 

[Leisha]

Usually if we measure height here, its by cms, not so much metres. I perfer the dd/mm/yy format for dates aswell, but that's because that's how it is here I guess.

 

[Zwarm]

dd/mm/yyyy format always confuses me. Why is 8/9 September?!

Edit:

have fun =]

yo zwarm check my peacock combo.

j.mk -> j.lk -> s.lp -> s.mp -> s.mk -> j.hp -> dash -> j.lk -> s.lp -> s.mp -> super

also double:

s.lp -> s.mp -> s.hk -> j.mp -> j.hp -> s.mk -> bionic car

Trying this out now, how does j.mk lead into anything? I can't get a j.lk out after hitting with the j.mk...

Nevermind I'm dumb. Ignore my stupidity.

 

[Leisha]

That format confuses me though xD. We all pefer the ones were brought up with I guess.

Guess who got a Wall E bag and plushie? :O YEAHZ!

Ill take photos later lawl.

 

[Heartstring]

American system's always screw me over. Whenever our school did a respect silence for 9/11 i always thought 'why are we doing this two months early?' and it took forever for me to learn the error of america's system.

Oh yeah leisha, a guy came to this tournament yesterday going by the name of stereo and said he knew you! I told him i would say hi to you for him!

 

[Leisha]

Oh wow, thats pretty cool :O!

Yeah hes a smasher from sydney, and I've teamed with him a couple of times. I hope I can travel someday. Need to study up so I can get better jobs =P

 

[dettadeus]

Did I hear Wall•e?

 

[Sudai]

Nope. You did read it though.

 

[Heartstring]

Yeah, He was a cool guy. defo more of a melee player though XD

Just out of curiosity, How good was he within the sydney/melbourne smash scene?

 

[ipitydatfu]

thanks Jcaesar

 

[HollaAtchaBoy]

I love that Steamboat Willy Peacock is, like, a weirdly viable character.

 

[ipitydatfu]

very capable character. too majority bad online players arent that strong. its easy to react with a counter super with parasoul

 

[Zwarm]

I love that a character I really enjoy is actually viable for once. Too often have I been disappointed by characters like Phoenix Wright and Platinum the Trinity.

I still probably need a second for Peacock when dealing with Valentine and the like, but I don't want to go with Double or Parasoul like everyone else. (sorry Stingers, I know you were going with Double since day 1, lol) I'm thinking Filia or Painwheel, though I can't really decide until I actually put time into a character that isn't Peacock.

 

[stingers]

Nah dude I couldn't be happier, the two chars I liked the most synergize perfectly together, its a dream come true XD

Id say filias your best bet, you can use hk hairball as a baby double assist, and gregor is a decent dhc.

 

[dettadeus]

What game are you guys even talking about? I'm intrigued.

 

[Zwarm]

Skullgirls, a downloadable fighting game for PS3/360 made by a pro Blazblue player from SoCal. Aka, it's a damn good game because he knows what he's doing.

Yeah stingers I was thinking Filia too, also because I think I enjoy playing her more than I do Painwheel. I'm bad with flight cancels.

 

[stingers]

He was more of a mvc2 player than blazblue, but thats just what he's known for. Because of that tager video. Well...its the first thing that pops up when you search for mike z at least lol

 

[Zwarm]

I only know of him because I watch a lot of SoCal Blazblue, or I used to at least. I never really watched MvC2 that much, I could never tell what was going on, lol.

 

[dettadeus]

Well there go my chances of getting it. Got a PSV, Wii and 3DS, no PS3/XBox. :/

 

[Jamage]

Ill just leave this here

 

[Zwarm]

So I think I'm gonna go with Peacock/Cerebella. Cerecopter does a good job locking them down so I can escape, and if it hits, I get a free Argus Agony. :3

Plus Cerebella is fun as hell.

 

[stingers]

I would be okay with that name.

What system did you get it for?

 

[JCaesar]

Guess what else just came out?

projectm.smashmods.com

 

[Sapphire Dragon]

It's so amazing. It really really is. Everything is smooth and working, it was so worth the wait and I don't even have to hack my Wii. You feel accomplished just from watching it load when you enter Stage Builder. Also Pikachu:M is so epic, you guys should try out ROB :D

By the way, what exactly would happen if you still had stages in there? It just wouldn't do anything?

 

[JCaesar]

Yeah, it wouldn't load the code that launches Project M. Glad you like it. Looking forward to videos from everyone.

There is a dedicated ROB:M forum over on Smashmods btw for anyone who wants serious talk.

 

[ipitydatfu]

i will be joining you guys soon once my internet stuff is repaired, hopefully we can get some matchmaking

also, xenoblade


hahah

 

[Heartstring]

I would be okay with that name.

What system did you get it for?

360, Because I dont own a playstation :B

As for the actual characters, I'm somewhat on the fence

Peacock: Amazing if only for the design. Also the concept of charging an elephant pleases me greatly
Filia: Closest thing in the game to a shoto, reasonably interesting
Parasoul: Charge, Not interested in the slightest
Painwheel: If I can get fly combo's down I will be seriously considering her. Rediculous amounts of rushdown pressure and f.HK for the most lenient hit confirm to ever exist (a.k.a: rekka style attack that can be combo'd from)
Double: Once again, Disinterest everwhere
Ms fortune: Seems solid. But doesnt bring about anything fun to the game, plus the whole body detachment thing is a little unnerving
Valentine: Kinda average. j.HK had me rofl-ing though

Looking like a peacock painwheel team for me, I dont like the button mapping for assists though, may map them to lb and lt :B

 

[Sapphire Dragon]

I recently watched the first two episodes of Community.

It's actually pretty good. XD


:slowpoke:

 

[ipitydatfu]

welcome to the party <3

 

[HollaAtchaBoy]

If you're a film/tv nerd, Community becomes like seven thousand times more entertaining.

 

[ipitydatfu]

this man knows his stuff ^

 

[HollaAtchaBoy]

You have no idea how much stuff this man knows.
