Ike Boards General/Q&A Thread

[Ussi]

SDI -> tech the stage is too good. How often would a situation arise like this for us to tech the stage?

moderately often

@BlueX's name thing
Asian names are cool, why do asians always hide behind English names :/.. Its fun being the only named with your name in school (surprised me considering how common my name is)

 

[Link2thelost90]

That video is an abomination

Pretty much.

I laugh at how silly people go over a holiday. Procrastination will be the death of some people..

If they procrastinate enough...their family might kill em. (jk..or aleast I hope so, for all the procrastinaters out there.) :D
Anywho Merry Christmas and Happy hoildays everyone.

 

[global-wolf]

Most Asian parents just give their kid a western name if they're born over here, and the ones that move over here they adopt a western name anyways. Asian names get pronounced wrong... I'm the only Chinese person in any of my schools to actually go by a Chinese name and the pronunciations are so creative it's not funny. It's not even hard to pronounce.

The uniqueness is nice though.

Merry Christmas everyone!

 

[Ussi]

my entire lifr i lived with a mispronouced name because no Americans can say "ous - mon" (something like that) so i adopted them saying "Ooze" for the first syllabol for my name.

Me being super shy before, i barely had courage to correct people about my name so i accepted what sounded close. By the point i gained courage, there was no point in correcting everyone.


Though the occansional "yous - mon" and "us - mon" is funny.

 

[theeboredone]

I just gave up on people pronouncing my name right. It's just their culture and how they speak which makes it difficult for them to say my name right. I mean, I just roll with it.

 

[Rangerike]

I have the most normal name, but people still get it wrong. They tend to say the female form of it ;/

 

[Ussi]

dude looks like a laaaaaaady

hey, thats not very nice

 

[Ussi]

... I should have put a music note after that

 

[san.]

I spent until 3am yesterday recompiling all of my stage textures, putting like 3-6 stage textures per stage for each legal stage. Most stages have random loading of the textured stages along with their originals. Took a while downloading each one then putting them with the alternate stage loader. Now I'll feel a lot less monotony when playing stages =D

I'm too lazy to mess with the stage songs I already have set from downloading..

@ Ussi&Bored
People mispronounce my name all the time, but I got used to correcting them =D

Don't hate on Charlie. Some other Asian friends like Kevin, Dan, and Andy (uncommon names imo) would like a word with you!

 

[Rangerike]

... I should have put a music note after that

Oh, I know that it's part of a song, I wasn't being serious when I said that wasn't nice ; )

 

[AN(M)ist]

about the asian talk,, how can i write my name in kanji or japanese? as far as i know, their alphabet present words so...how will Abid be written in those languages?

lol, i get my name mispronounced for many times. Americans just don't seem to get the tone of "aain" and "daal" of my name (In arabic/urdu: 'aain' is heavy toned 'a' which comes from the throat and 'daal' is very much similar to 'the').

 

[global-wolf]

Your name in Kanji would be some words that kinda sound like your name and hopefully have a nice meaning.

 

[AN(M)ist]

i c huh. could u help me find it out plezz?

My name is "ABID" (phonetic: aaa-be-dh). So in kanji, what all different words will make my name?

 

[global-wolf]

Depends on who you ask for it, it's not set. I don't know enough to make one up for you.

 

[Berserker Swordsman]

So I'm sitting here browsing Smashboards while Christmas music is on in the living room, and I get the idea to write an Ike main Christmas Carol =D

On the twelfth day of Christmas, my Ike main gave to me: (I'm not typing out all 12 days, obviously)

12 favored matchups
11 friends to fight for
10th place ranking
9 stages to strike
8-minute planking
7 jab cancels
6 FSmashes
FIVEEE GREAT AETHEEEERRSS!
4 UAirs (Up airs)
3 different spikes
2 Ftilts (forward tilts)
And of course, no sym-pa-thyyyyy~

To Anmist: I'm not sure if you could really write it in Kanji, because it's supposed to represent an actual word, not just syllables put together. In terms of syllables, you'd want Katakana/Hiragana:

あべっど　- hiragana
アベッド - katakana (hoping I got the spelling here right)

 

[AN(M)ist]

sweet. thanks,

あべっど and アベッド, They are japanese right? so they mean (lolwut) 'Oh all Tsu etc'. wut does Tsu stand for?

btw, if u guys r wondering, I used google translate to translate those.

 

[Teh Brettster]

Lol, I love the 3 different spikes part for some reason.

Also, this is an urgent public service announcement.
Don't go to see Narnia. It got ***** by the people who have the right to Narnia. Lmao. It was one of the worst movies I think I've seen. They changed the plot of the book to make it a better movie (I can only guess that's why) and then it was still a TERRIBLE movie.

 

[-RedX-]

Red-X, is your full name Charlie Wang? >.>

No. LOL
I'm not Chinese. I think we went over this sometime ago.

 

[Berserker Swordsman]

The hiragana is just a way of spelling it out if "abid" was the reading of a kanji (or series of kanji characters). The katakana is what would probably be used because it's a name and doesn't have a Japanese origin. So they don't actually mean anything; they're just how you'd spell your name out. I'm guessing Google translate took the first two characters from the hiragana as if it were part of another word.

 

[Ussi]

oh na na.. what's my name (in Japanese)?

 

[AN(M)ist]

I'm pretty sure it is ウシ (katakana). right Berserker swordsman?

lol, that actually means 'Bovine' hahahaha

 

[Berserker Swordsman]

Is it pronounced ooh-see or us-see?

If it's ooh-see, anmist has it right.

 

[jamlosingthegame]

My first and middle names are western versions of both my lolos (grandparents in Tagalog - IIRC it can pronounced as it is written). I used Google translate to make my name in Japanese once. ジョン is what I get. Hurray for Engrish. I also got さん (lol san) and ヨハネ. So yeah, I used Google Translate. If you have a better way to write/say it, my name is John (inb4nojohnsjoke).

Oh and I had so much fun setting up my RB 3 Pro drum set. I only got to play one song on it though, but it still feels so cool to have it.

That's what Rotten Tomatoes is for.

 

[-Smash King-93]

Been gone from here for awhile now >_> sooo...
sup SWF ikes. anyone miss me? no? yes? xD

 

[theeboredone]

80% of the Ike boards don't even know who you are.

 

[Teh Brettster]

I thought about you like once.

I mean, that's about how well I ever knew you.

 

[jamlosingthegame]

I believe I friended you over at AiB but I rarely visit that place. Only to get the daily cards.

 

[Ussi]

And truth be told, I miss you..
and truth be told, I'm lyiiing~

[theeboredone]

Good to hear. He'll always be a fav of mine. I have a lot of respect for the people who serve our country.

 

[Teh Brettster]

Yeah, I liked that guy. I thought he was dumb at first, but he really turned out to be a good guy.

I just remembered I have to drive back to my apartment to pay rent this week. It's a bitter feeling.

 

[theeboredone]

Oh crap...I need to mail my check in too. Thanks for reminding me.

 

[Heartstring]

so how was the ike boards christmas?
i got broncitis for christmas, good tiems, good tiems...
i also got fire emblem radiant dawn, good game, its a lot harder than shadow dragon

 

[Ussi]

Since there was no place to gooo
Let it snow, let it snow, let ot snoooow


(my basement flooded, but my sisters saved the wii and xbox 360)

 

[jamlosingthegame]

@GP: Cool now you can feel the overpowered Ike from RD (which makes the Black Knight fight on Normal and Easy a bit too easy) not the one that's not godly in Brawl. But have you tried Shadow Dragon on the hardest difficulty? I haven't played RD on hard yet so I can't compare. Oh and I already mentioned, but it doesn't seem like you saw my post, that I got RB 3 Pro Drums. I feel so awesome playing with it. Besides that, had a party over at some cousins' house and we played Just Dance 2. Too funny.

@Ussi: lol sisters to the rescue. Snow doesn't bother me here. Or at least not now. Sooner or later I'll have to help my parents shovel the stuff because I know one of them has to work tomorrow.

 

[Rangerike]

I just lol'd laughing at Nysyarc's post on Mr. Dooms song topic

 

[Teh Brettster]

Ussi, how much other damage was done? Is it bad?


In other news, look what I found.

[theeboredone]

I don't understand why people would want Halo 2 and 3 if Reach is already there...but then again, I guess that's saying why people still play SF2 over SSF4.
