You guys know about the 9:15 club? Well, my little 13-year old cousin just got a 9:13 on it last night in Mario Party 4. It was fucking ridiulous. This game is apparently real bad if a litttle girl is beating grown ass men.
Tyser, quit playing kids crap party games and get back to playing platforming party games

:) hey haha I rarely post but I like to read soran's posts hahaha
so true.

Also, I'd like to know what went down too. Also -.00000001 karma to Aura and -1 karma to GG. Though I know Karma can only be distributed by the celestial bodies, it's my own system.

I remember Schizm saying he would assist me taking my own life...
is it too late to ask for this assistance?

Madoka is trippy as hell, pretty good series I'd recommend~

Its too bad you barely get to hear Mami's theme after episode 3 >:

I might have to give in and read the manga for her. So good.

I admire the passion behind that thread.

I think if Iowa made one it'd probably be of Final Fantasy or something. ~_~

FF9 would probably be god-tier, except there'd be a disclaimer telling of the ridiculous amount of times Joker has replayed 8.

Dan and I got drunk last night and thought it would be hilarious. Besides, Nebraska Mega Man PR is more valid than brawl PR, I think even Tyser would agree with that.

I agree FF9 is the best, deciding between 6 or 8 is tough but I probably like 8 more than 1/2/3/4/6, but 5 and 7 are higher imo.

ff8 is the best. joker knows whats up ;D
FF8 rules because of the card game/Side Quests and Ultimacias Castle is the best final dungeon, not most difficult, but the best by design and sheer ideas and ingenuity.

FF6- ok...this one is just epic, multiple angles on the story, crazy villain, perfect battle system and i can say that the only thing i didn't like about the game was when i finished it.....i wish there was more to do. Oh and **** you Chupon....**** you.....

FF7- was my first 3d rpg....so naturally it impacted me pretty hard. i loved the story behind it(not including the ******** spinoffs and sequels it spawned) the battle system was nice and fluid, and most of the characters were awesome. did i mention the awesome snowboarding?!

FF8- was ok, it had a pretty good story, alot of the characters were kind of ahhh....dull i thought tho. the card game was fun tho, i spent many hours collecting those damn cards

FF9- was damn good and is easily in my top 3. great character development, very well told story, card game was great even though it was 100 times more confusing than it needed to be. only gripe is that the battle system could have been just a tiny bit faster.

and thats my randomly inserted opinions on the golden era of final fantasy. i am also willing to bet i played through 7 more times than joker played 8 XD

5 was amazing, i loved the way they did the job class system. i played the GBA version recently and got my arse kicked by shinryu and omega mkII, only to find out that afterwards, there are even tougher versions of them to fight XD.

I need to redownload that game on my PS3 again ^.^


Honestly, I've been dying to play Teams!
You need to show up early when Sekou and Brandon come down.
Which speaking off like I told Brandon since they did bad at WHOBO I'm only playing like 1 set or so of doubles and stick to singles after that so Colin you need to show up so I can play with you stick with me and we'll be the ones representing singles Iowa <(^.^<)


ff8 is the best. joker knows whats up ;D
FF9 I was able to play it wasn't that bad once I started however I didn't care for the story actually can't even remember what it was o.0
With 8 I can go from start to end without stoping plus there where scenes in that game that made me tear up same when Aeries died and made me hate Cloud :mad:
But the main reason I like 8 is cause is based of school/romance/slice of life anime which is one of my favorites that isn't ecchi :awesome:

I started playing 6 but stop don't know why. I think I have played 8 like 4-5 times also FFX isn't that bad kinda like it same with FFX-2 even though they say is bad I like it cause is a whole female team <3


Why am I not surprised? Joker we never legitly did Ness/Lucas :c
I thought we did way back I can at least remember doing it once for sure on a low tier tourney o.0


Korean food tomorrow???
I think I may be up for that what time you thinking on going also you should bring one of your hardrives so I can transfer my data cause I try the other day using cables but it couldn't read then it die T.T

oh wassup iowa? :D

We're back safely, and I don't think sekou can make games this week either... I guess the next time. Later in the week we'll work out driving for QRS's thing. WHOBO was ****ing awesome. I 2-0d seibrik in a friendly set against his marth ( he beat me after though, but we split) . Played some matches with Coney , Will, other efames. Sekou 2 stocked Inui in a friendly, he was pissed, and we were schooling him in doubles...

Our team situation...
We lost to Espy/Kprime round 1... Sekou can explain for himself, but he basically got ****gamed by housing and allergies, and couldn't play well on Friday. We beat some randoms rnd 2, and lost to Zeton/Ripple rnd 3. We beat them until ripple went lucario. We lost a MM to Trela/Inui on sunday. Insert johns here: Sekou didn't know that MKs stocks affected Lucario's power.

FFX-2 was fun simply because of the gameplay, there was no story or exploring or anything lol. but the gameplay was damn good.

expect me to be around more often tho joker, im gonna make a peachy comeback!

@Iowa: Yeah, It was interesting. I got sick Thursday night because I decided to stay with a friend, instead of my cousin :(. So I was not playing like the regular PCity ya'll know and love. Saturday night went WAY better. After getting 3 stocked by this ZSS player to warm me up :-\...I played well the entire rest of the night. Beat Inui in the friendly match, and in countless doubles. Played plenty of other people in singles and doubles. All successful, well except against Zeton. He got me 4 -2. I realize I need a ton of MU experience, because it seems when you play a character outside of the top 2 tiers, I'm at a loss. S tier and A tier charcters I have on lock, but going into B - C and D hahaha often catch me by surprise. Sunday was fun, and we did lose to Inui. I never knew that if MK has 3 stocks we have 2 and Lucario has 1...he will be at max power cause the game looks at whoever has the highest stock, friend OR foe. That was a game losing omission that I take full responsibility for. I never knew that and similar situations popped up quite a bit.

@Joker: :-) ...aight homey

@QRS: Hopefully I will get to go Sunday. You and I should play lots of singles so I can get a grasp of some of the smaller things in the match up. Particularly, Fox's capabilities. I was shocked plenty of times by Fox's movement. Particularly, when he was able to follow up on a combo and when he wasn't.

@Greg: Yeah, no one complained about his health, they complained about his damage output :)

So my plane ride yesterday was terrible. It was canceled first, then we got on a different plane, which was delayed by maybe 35 minutes, then flew through a thunderstorm.

x_x I was freaking out the entire time.

@Joker: Oh, really? Wow I have a terrible memory. Btw remind me when I go up there next to give you your birthday present.

Yeah that nerf is really stupid.

But akuma infinite is gone as well-- good change.
DHC glitch is still there as far as I know.


Also, I've been carrying the singles flag for as long as I've played Smash.

Yep, you get the medal of smitting after beating one of the harder versions. Extra Job classes too!

My roommate and I might come to this. What tourneys are gonna happen and who else wants to go?
Chances are that it isn't going to be the circuit event because of poor previous managment. But its gonna have MvC3, Brawl, MK9 (probably) Super Street Fighter 4, BlazBlue, maybe UMK3 and SSFII and Melee.

And crap like Halo and COD, nerdy card and action figure RPG games too.
