FMOI and Glyph present War of the Roses. DABUZ IS THE CHAMP!

[Excellence]

If the tournament was smaller, I'd do a loser's bracket but it would be too much to handle with this.

@ Naucitos:

Yes, I'm aware that Marth and Pit are males but they are definately metrosexuals when compared to the other males in the cast. Metrosexuals are usually men who are very clean and/or feminine. If you're a guy who files his nails, uses women's shampoo/conditioner, or brushes his hair on a regular basis, chances are you're a metrosexual.

Also, Punch Out 3, Mario and Luigi RPG 3, and Sin and Punishment 2 were announced today; life is good!

I guess I would be considered metrosexual then? Pft, whatever so what if I want to look prettier than the person I date. I call it competitive grooming.

My Mii? That's Geno from Super Mario RPG. It was one of the top ten most popular Miis from like December 2007-January 2008 on the Check Mii Out channel so I usually use it as my Mii. (Yes, I created it.) I look much different I assure you. I kind of look like a young Stephen King.

It was a waste of time because I almost never use it. I can easily read it but I can only speak a little bit. Personally, I blame the first French teacher I had for babying the class too much...

So what... You're like sixty-plus years old, live in a studio with your creepy, yet ironically soothing creations of horror and play smash all day? You sound like my type of person, maybe we should hook up sometime.

I always pretend FMOI is Bill Cosby.

It livens the forums for me.

You know, I pretend FMOI is Bill Cosbey too. Personally, I think Cosbeyness is next to Excellenceness, so he's cool in my book of who's in and who's out. But you Glyph, you disappoint me. It's the hurt stick for you the next time you post.

EDIT; i thought he said he was in college

This post in it's entirety is awesome. If only I could put it in a picture frame and hang it on my wall.

@ cba:

He's referring to Stephen King (is he in his 60's now, really? O_o' I thought he was in his 50's.).

 

[Aryman]

I also studied 5 years of french.

Mais je ne parle pas tres bien.

 

[DTP]

Random Post

I somewhat understood that! "something....something....speak french very well" I think.
Yeah I can't see french getting me anywhere

 

[Omis]

Learn Portugues. Then maybe you can teach me so my mom will stop yelling at me about learning the language of her country.

 

[Sir Bedevere]

He said, "But I do not speak very well." Hopefully he meant French and not speech in general.

I've studied French for 11 years.

...

From Grade 1 to 11. >_> I'm still learning it lol.

So my French is probably on par with Ary's and maybe FMOI's.

Oh, and put me down with omis on your list of people to teach Portuguese. :/

Also, I just noticed that my post count is madness!

 

[Steel_Dragon]

30s is madness???

 

[SkylerOcon]

I'll catch you guys on Saturday.

Get ready to be Mariowned.

wow i would like to learn japanese, but then... i dont have the enthusiasm(idk if spelled wrong). but i cant seem to find a place to actually learn. but as i know spanish and it is my primary language i tend to know how to read some french and italian words(idk how) i think its because they are derived from latin. anyway i always dream of learning a new language.

 

[Barge]

In the Usa, spanish is probably the best second language to learn, as more and more spanish speakers are entering this country (Most illegally)
So you'll have a better chance at getting hired if you know 2 languages.
I bet you by 2020 there will be more spanish speakers then english speakers.
Anyways, I'd rather learn japanese then spanish.
I already completed spanish 1-2 3-4 anyways, so I completed my foreign language credit for High school.

yea but where i work at there are these south-american kids who speak english like if they dont have SA roots and you see their parents struggling to actually understand them and all that.
it gets me kinda irritated. but its called "earth" and for it to be, it has to have a little bit of everything.

 

[Excellence]

Back to talk about the tournament.

 

[DtJ Glyphmoney]

Tengo tres anos del espanol.

Y no estoy muy bueno.

 

[ZeonStar]

Well, I probably wont be able to attend the tournament since theres an offline tournament on the 18th. So if I dont show up, you know why.

 

[mcmuff1nman]

Joining

I'd like to join this tournament as well, please. Category: Da boys and other.

 

[DtJ Glyphmoney]

Dang, sign ups have slowed down a little bit.

We've had like 2 people recently.

 

[Fatmanonice]

I just need to know who you want to use.

I'm royally pissed off right now because I just bombed a Chemistry test and I might have to drop my internet life altogether in order to pass the class.

@ Glyph:

From what I've noticed in the past, most people sign up on Saturday and Sunday for tournaments and it's usually around 6-8 at night.

Join the bandwagon with Heartz. Stupid tests

College is FUN!

At least the tourney isn't for a while, though. And high school ftw.

[Fatmanonice]

College is fun but the work becomes freakishly hard in the later years if you're still trying to knock your preresquites out of the way. (Like me.) The classes that actually involve my major are a cake walk. Ugh... Thank God it's Friday; I could really go for a beer right now...

Anyways, the tournament isn't for another 2 weeks two and we had more than half the number of people needed sign up on the first day this was posted so I'm not overly concerned.

Yeah, ima bit surprised of how fast it filled up. Doing things for a friend is always better than doing things for yourself.

Give me an example of the chemistry you're studying.

It's too bad you won't be making it to college, huh, Glyph? But that's okay, I'm sure your High School will enjoy having you there for another four years.

My character is R.O.B.

Uhg, this is even more discouraging than I thought. I'm already preparing myself by seeing where I can grab and where I can't, because ROB is a pain.

 

[ThatGuyYouMightKnow]

John-in, are ya? Tsk tsk tsk.

If you wanna john, john about lag. XD ROB used to be my secondary so lol.

I've got over a 4.0 gpa, several AP and DE classes, and I got 99th percentile on the math section of the SAT.

So yeah, I'm pretty much screwed.

Don't give up hope! The school system only has a 72% chance of f*cking you right into Service or the hobo-nation! :D

 

[chimpact]

"I have a friend/brother/sister/cousin/land lord/insurance agent who wants to play too; can they enter?"


I lol'd at landlord and now my brother is signing up with Rob.

Be aware that colleges look at a three leg system to determine who gets in and who does not. AP courses mean not so much, they look good and that's all. You should only be taking AP courses you're actually interested in, but if you're naming them because you play on testing out of classes in college that's stupid because you WANT classes you'll major in.

My school district (probably even the state) doesn't have DE Classes, however, know that some schools have a more challenging curriculum than others; so, if you're coming from somewhere where a 90% is an A, you're not going to be looked at in the same manner you hope.

Sure you may have got the 99th percentile, the bottom 99th percentile.

 

[DtJ Glyphmoney]

Ouc h

But yeah, we're 94% for an A. And most of my AP classes are math or history. I actually hate history with a passion, but I'm fine with math.

 

[Gryphon]

O h

 

[ProBrawler]

Don't get me started on academics, lol. *has 99.956 raw GPA* I used to have a 100.02 ='( And I'm applying to colleges this Fall... -________-

 

[DtJ Glyphmoney]

Gryphon is learning...

I like that.

@Pro. That's about 95 above the highest possible GPA. Needless to say, I'm very impressed.

 

[ProBrawler]

Lol, by "raw GPA" I mean out of 100. My real GPA is 4.0 or maybe above that, idk.

 

[Excellence]

I don't near the work ethic to constantly maintain perfect scores. I'll do what's required and score just enough to maintain As with a slight cushion so I never have to worry about a B or C here or there. However, intelligence is NOT academic, it's based on capacity. So for everyone here who wants to come and lie about there grades, know that intelligence is capacity-based and NOT academic. All high academic scores do is show you you're work ethic and how well you handle work load.

*Proud owner of a 96.3% GPA*

 

[ProBrawler]

Um, well
1) I'm not lying
2) Duh, I never said that grades = intelligence. But it's truth that you need both that and work ethic to truly be successful.
3) I'm not going to get into a debate as to what equals intelligence.
4) I don't nearly try hard enough to reach my potential, yet I still do as well as I do. /modest

 

[DtJ Glyphmoney]

Yeah, lets agree that school doesn't mean squat.
