Ike Boards General/Q&A Thread

I know that: hence risk of starting a flame war. <_<

I've done my own research: Israel is in the right, it just gets slammed by most left-wing media. It's going to take a lot more than one person's book to change my mind.

I'd be interested in reading some of this research if you can link me sometime.

[Teh Brettster]

If only Kimchi would post when he gets caught. He's not cool like Kirk, I guess. =[

 

[Ussi]

o___o

random people lurking our thread (Hai Neon! and Star King)

Kimchi didn't think bored would screenie it

Various bits of research, both online and antidotal, over several years?

That would be fun. >_> Also, I highly suspect that our different religions would come up in this as well, and that always has the potential to get ugly.

I'm not even putting much forth a religious concept into who should get what in regards to the Israeli and Palestine debate. I'm all for the 2 state solution, but I find it humorous that...since its proposal 50+ years ago...the two countries to clearly reject it every single time are the US and Israel. Aside from some minority Middle East countries (like Libya), even the Arab countries + Europe are for it. If you believe in things in relation to Zionists...well it definitely adds more justification to it I suppose.

Ussi, I quit trying to compete about that post count ever since I was the first to get 1000.

 

[Ussi]

I'm just happy i hit 2k

I've barely hit 1k at the pika social and that's been around foreveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer


also lol i hit 2k before anyone else hit 1k

 

[Mozz]

Berserker definitely wins some concentrated posting award though, I mean, at 682 out of 813 posts here, and with 20+ on the hope 4 hype thread, and 10+ on the PA rankings, he sure sticks with the few threads he bothers to post on at all.

 

[Ussi]

70% of my posts are on the Ike boards

20% on pika

9% on competitive brawl discussion

1% other

 

[theeboredone]

Lol, I used to be 100% Ike boards until I moved into Light House and Pool Room.

 

[Heartstring]

about 25% ike, 25% rob, 25% ganon, 20% regional, 5% pony

also cool. im the third most lurky guy here

You can raise units that will be better than her without all of the work. Innes is not that good either, so being better than that isn't saying much. You want good 2-range? Just use one of the really good Paladins with a Javelin/Spear.

I guess you're right about Javelin/Spear, but the Spear comes around once in a while. You gotta have that sniper to take on those flying enemies anyway. I used her a ton, but that's just me.

Umm, what? Franz is the best Cavalier you get. He'll have great Str and Spd for doubling, decent Def and great HP for durability... And you get him early on and he's around all the time. He's the exact opposite of blowing.

I haven't played this game in a long time and forgot about him. lol you're right he does end up being better than Seth.

You can get about 4-5 Lockpicks before Colm even promotes (a couple more after he promotes, but he won't be able to steal one of them). This doesn't even include the Secret Shop. There are not more than maybe 50-60 chests in the game not including the tower, and how often do you need to open doors with the Lockpick rather than the 2014901950 Door Keys you get? Your Paladins will reach doors before Colm will especially if he's going another route to get treasure, so they should open doors later on. I've been through this game several times and still had a couple of Lockpicks left for post-game.

It seemed difficult because of the numerous enemies that came about and having everyone split up in groups. It ended up with the doors and chests being on one side of the map, and the enemies with keys on the other. That being said, you're right about the 01978034789 door keys, but at the same time if you're supply got full(which it did a lot for me), you'd be getting rid of them to make space for better weapons/items. But like I said before, I haven't played this game in a long time and your way of playing seems to make sense.

And you can get 2 Rogues in Colm and Rennac, but Rennac sucks beyond his Rogue abilities soooo... And yeah, you don't need 3 Swordsmasters, that's why you use Joshua and bench the rest. >_>

Again, forgot about people. haha Yea Rennec doesn't have much area to gain like Colm did, and why bench the rest? Marisa rules.

Sorry if it seems like my talking tends to not flow well together. I type and think at the same time, so I might go off-track. <_<

Fixed what? You don'thave that many posts in this thread

I really should post on other character boards since I play so many characters.... too lazy.

 

[Ussi]

You won't get along anyways

 

[Berserker Swordsman]

Ouch, hurting my feelings Ussi. =( umad about MK ban?

 

[Ussi]

I want Mk to be banned o.O



What characters do you use besides Ike anyway?

 

[Heartstring]

agreed, its a shame he isnt banned at apex. but we know they would lose attendance if they did :L

 

[Ussi]

I think its mainly for international attendance

 

[Berserker Swordsman]

What characters do you use besides Ike anyway?

I meant me not voting, but it was a joke anyway.

In order of best to worst (IMO): Marth, Falco, Sheik, Kirby, Fox, Peach, and Mario.

 

[Heartstring]

im pretty sure everywhere international would like mk to be banned anyway, i know many places that have already banned him

 

[theeboredone]

That poll about MK being banned is done?

 

[Nidtendofreak]

Aside from some minority Middle East countries (like Libya), even the Arab countries + Europe are for it. If you believe in things in relation to Zionists...well it definitely adds more justification to it I suppose.

From antidotal research: Israelis and Palestines were both offered part of that area at the start. Israel said sure, they just wanted a land so the Holocaust couldn't happen again. Palestines said no, banking on the neighboring countries destroying Israel and giving them the land. Surprise, Six-Day War happened, other countries got spank'd.

They had their chance, they gambled, they lost. Giving Palestine the land wouldn't fix things either: war would still happen. That area is just too hostile against Israel, and that country knows it.

Is that MK poll finished? I haven't checked in a while.

 

[theeboredone]

Niddo, I don't think antidotal is a word...did you mean anecdotal?

And that's rather amusing cause all the research I've found says the opposite of what you mentioned.

Then again, I try not to take anything from US news sources seriously. They are always hiding this or that.

And for you Pokemon lovers...have you caught this one in your games?

Spoiler

 

[Ussi]

I think the poll is still going on, otherwise the results would have been released or something.


@Bored I hope she doesn't use explosion, that'd be a nasty scene

 

[Senliten]

And for you Pokemon lovers...have you caught this one in your games?

Spoiler

Bloody hell, I think it is already caught by aids, so why even bother with it.

Probably, though antidotal shows up as a word according to my spellchecker. Apparently, that is a form of the word "antidote". *shrugs*

And I got that from my History teacher. He was British (meaning not from an American source) if that changes anything. lol

 

[theeboredone]

Oh okay...cause evertime I typed that into Google, it kept saying "Did you mean anecdotal"

 

[Ussi]

Google thinks it knows everything

 

[Noge]

Hi, can somebody tell me if there are MU guides in Ike boards?

 

[theeboredone]

I believe the one we have/had is very, very old. You're better off asking us straight up which MU you are having trouble with.

 

[-RedX-]

Finally started on FE5 since I finished FE3.

I'm on chapter 4. So far, 90% of the playable units are GARBAGE holy ****.
The worst part is that the top tier units are separated from Leaf atm. :l
