I still need a running theme before i start writing. I'm actually thinking of just reading out old posts and writing a story on what I read.

So I would start with the Burrito going crazy with losing "his" thread that he started because we wanted a new OP

What you think?

So...a fanfic of the Ike social board? I would read it.

@Brett: I went to the 2nd tourney in my life. Got 17th out of 41...same placement as the last time I went to a tournament. Kirk was also there too but we didn't really talk or anything. >_<

Also, Happy (very?) Belated Birthday Mr. Doom!

Lol why didn't you guys really talk or anything?

Usually when I'm somewhere where anyone else from the Ike boards is, I make it a point to hang around them.

Also, is that OUR Metroid I see in the Melee results?

Marching band is easy.

Because I am shy/anti social. I barely talked to anyone... And yes, yes it is. He quit Brawl. :c Don't know if he told everyone.

I typed the above, and then instantly understood. I approve.

You guys should quit your johning right now. You're dealing with straight up sun. In Kansas, it's very humid, so it feels much hotter than it actually is. I'm actually a bit surprised how we're getting triple digit temperatures, but then again, it's Kansas.

This past week has been pretty hot. 107-110 Fahrenheit for about a week now. But I mean, it's not like that's super surprising.
I'm really tired of everyone complaining about hot weather, though. It gets hot every summer. Shut up.

BS, nice joke/reference.

And Foodies. Talk to people. Be social. It's fun.
Metroid. =[
He never got to see me play piano. But I never did record anything anyway, lol.

Ok so one wants to 1-1 then 1-2? Is that when your opponent will catch on and SDI outta it? More or less anyways...

Also I'm guessing big characters can get jab locked across the stage? While smaller have an easier time getting away?
Yea it pretty much depends on a lot of things, such as your opponent's character choice, how he/she SDIs out of it, etc. I commonly use jab 1-1 and do something else like a quick Fair or go for a grab. Grab don't work as well so I do Fair and Nair more often than that.

You can sometimes kinda jab-lock Ganon or Bowser, but as I said, they could SDI out of it.

EDIT: I've been wondering...what happened to those profiles with pics we made at the beginning of a thread so long ago? Wasn't it at the beginning of our social?

No, it was a thread made my Metroid.

And I brought it up not long ago saying my profile is quite outdated. I had a pic up with my girlfriend... but I have been single for over 5 months. I feel like that should be taken out. Also I have a pic of me clean-shaven, and that hasn't happened in a couple years.

Talking weather, 2 Tornados touched down here, they didn't last long or pose a threat but still, pretty cool.



And got it, depends on opponent.

You could always edit it as such. Would you care about doing another profile thread thing? I wouldn't mind.

I hate Hector hard mode!!!!!!

But love how difficult it is :x

I have reset every chapter at least 10 times (half for RNG screwage)

Why would I want to play a game designed to require RNG to be on my good side?

I barely manage with HHM just constantly restarting to get good levels ups.. i waste 2 hours just on a chapter

The way Ike stands in the game reminds me of Marth. I would have laughed if he took a critical hit and died.
The myrmidon would have to be able to do at least 17 damage and have a crit of 1 (curse of the 1% haunts you). But imagine that. I was hoping Ike at least get hit and be all like "No damage. WHAT NOW!?"

Aether can also apparently break doors, but the game glitches and he does it for a while. I did it on one of those extra chapters with the prison. Ike just kept jumping up and down and I watched, wondering when he would stop. I think the door got bored and just opened up anyway.

When you land from aether, you should have the option to press the B button to unleash the 2nd hit which should backflip to the ledge

The game glitches? I Aether doors all the time (Runesword + Aether = HOLY COMBO and stealing HP from doors :awesome:) and it never glitched...

Which leads me to ask how much Fire Emblem have you guys actually played? I started Thracia 776 (I think that's what it's called, can never remember the number) a long time ago, but other than that, I've played everything from Roy's game on.

Lyn, Hector, and Eliwood game, Shadow Dragon, Sacred Stones, Path of Radiance, and Radiant Dawn.

I'll tell you this: I'm a master at rage-resetting after one of my characters die. That line of games filled me up with too much sodium chloride.

I dunno, I just never found Shadow Dragon to be much fun. I finished it, but painfully so. Heck, I beat the final boss in 1 round wtf. Game got so boring after a few chapters, especially with the archaic evasion/hit formulas.

I loved the sequel remake though. Making your own unit ftfw, even though it's always overpowered.
