PGD: Happy Birthday, Red!

[Geoberos]

I'm still trying to make sense of these chain of messages...

Some, traitors-I mean smashers here aren't actually fellow Pikachu

So starts off Bell accuses Pikachu mains who switch mains being non-Pikachus.

You really are new here if you think that playing Pikachu is required to be a Pika.

PL mentions that you don't have to play Pikachu to be a Pikachu.

Okay well, Pheonix, if you have good eyesight you'll realize that I WAS talkin' about playing the character...ya smartass

I don't get this context. In one case, Bell assumes PL was saying that Bell wasn't talking about playing Pikachu, but should not be the case because seeing that exact post is what made PL reply in he first place. In the second case, Bell is sarcastically admitting to PL's accusation that he is being "new" by making the newbie mistake of making a comment that you must (continue to) play Pikachu to be a Pikachu. Three, this is some kind of Pikachu-encrypted message hidden inside y'alls one-liners.

Either that or you are super old guard Pika like me. xP

 

[PZ]

One-liners are awesome but on more important note I tried to stay up 24/7 and end up making it all the way to like 3 pm but woke up at about 6 pm later when my friend called me (Thanks!). Although I went to my other friend's house in an attempt to stay awake longer at least until like 12 pm...BUT because after Yugioh(one of my old hobbies) we played brawl we ended up playing for 4 hours past that...(my god I am addicted to the fun in brawl especially when both of my friends were getting so good at the game as we played).

So I had the idea if I do something tedious or tiring I will go to sleep earlier before 8 am and wake up at 2:30 or 3:30 to not have a horrible sleep schedule...worked but I blame myself for not even hitting the snooze button but turning it off...also my phone died so I did not have the base of the alarms waking me.(guitar w/e song is super loud)

I might just grab a 5 hour energy before my exam tomorrow (err...today?) or ask for some sleep pills from mom like right now...

Also good job Urban at the tourney!
I am online only player so APEX nope. Although I would love to show off my insane DI at a local tourney or smash fest if there was one within 4 or 5 hours of my house without tolls or other stuff.
Pika, kirby, and falcon are my mains that I will use no matter what changes in the next gen game. I was disappointed that kirby sucked so bad in melee but I used pichu back then so its the most w/e thing when SHFFL nairing is so much harder to do consistently.
I am showing more interest in falcon this game because I love this game for reads and pikachu in this game is so much harder to use than he was in the other games. I think I stopped using kirby this game because of how I chose my smash name to be Chu but there was already a tournament active player named chudat using kirby so I wanted to be different by using a character I might be able to enjoy getting reads more(falcon or ganon) ganon's recovery is the only think I don't like about him though...

I am splitting that into 2 posts next time...<.<

 

[~automatic]

Old ward reunion time!

I'll hit up Ser1n.

 

[Angiance]

PZ, Pikachu online is sooooooooooooooo like, time consuming to adjust to. We should totally play online sometime, but uhhh...yeah, APEX is so far away from some of us, pretty upsetting.

 

[Phoenix Lord']

Historically, I have always lived about an hour away from Apex. I want everybody to know that.

 

[~Radiance~]

so I did a run of Ocarina of Time called MST which is a really popular category. Hadnt done a run on the JP version and my new time is now in the top 1/3rd of all people running in so thats pretty ****. also I died to ganon and failed an important skip so I can def improve on it. Named the file 4Eryth, really miss that guy, wonder where he is now.

THAT IS ALL! just wanted to share my lame little accomplishments lol

Hey guys, I'm looking for a third character to play in PM (currently play Mewtwo and Pikachu). I basically want to just sit back and fire projectiles at the opponent and zone them. I heard Ivysaur was pretty good at this, but wasn't sure if it is still true in 3.0. Should I try to pick her up, or just pick something like Falco and SHL from across the stage for the entire match?

Also, good job Latias! What's an MST run?

 

[Dream Land Works]

Ivy is still a good defensive character. I'm a defensive player since my finger speed isn't fast enough to play offensively. I use Pikachu, King Dedede, and Ness.

I once flew from NJ to Michigan, then drove back the whole way the next day with the Michigan carpool just to get to APEX. And by once, I mean twice. The other times I've just been in NJ.

But the other week me and Phoenix drove 12 hours both ways through rain, snow, and hail in the middle of the night to a regional (APEX is a national so it should merit an even further drive), I flew across the country for the last genesis, let one of the least trustworthy drivers in the scene drive me in a whiteout snow storm to go from Michigan to DC for the smashfest that was Pound V, and I've been at both SKTARs.

NO EXCUSES. NONE. GET TO APEX OR BE BAD.

 

[Angiance]

Y'know what, Roller, that's pretty motivating. Thanks man.

 

[~Radiance~]

@vale: MST basically is an all dungeons run. Its one of the popular categories run of the game since the any % run takes like 20 minutes.

All this talk of apex is making me wana go lol, too bad its far away. I AM doing some xmas stuff for people though on a sort of related to the times note, so if you want a 5iv goomy with its hidden ability tell me and ill make you one.

 

[redfeatherraven]

I'm already bad. Just look at these dangerous shades.

One god-goomy for me, please and thank you. If there's a way I can repay the favor let me know.

 

[~Radiance~]

you can repay me kindly by catching me roughly six mawiles from my friend safarri, because I am trying to breed mawile but i dont have access to my own and I really need those various 2 IV mawiles that tease me out of reach in my own safari lol

 

[Phoenix Lord']

But the other week me and Phoenix drove 12 hours both ways through rain, snow, and hail in the middle of the night to a regional (APEX is a national so it should merit an even further drive)

And I didn't even go for the regional itself, I went for a side tourney. (And Anther)

 

[Thor]

GET TO APEX OR BE BAD.

I'm already bad. I'm also a 17-year old without a license living in f***** Minnesnowta. And my parents find my love of Smash strange.

I'm bad with johns. That's like even worse.

Fixes?

 

[redfeatherraven]

Catch more of one of my favorites? Sir, you've come to a specialist.

Name the IVs you need and I'll get you your Mawiles, six or sixty.

 

[~Radiance~]

Hah well I want differing Ivs in any order so I want all Ivs of 31 besides sp att so any combo will be fine. I'd really like mostly males too since I have the female I want to breed with

Ill work on your goomy tonight

 

[Angiance]

"I'll work on your goomy tonight"...umm...sounds pretty sexy

I still have Kangaskhan, Starmie, and Skarmory for trade and am interested in a Goomy.

 

[~Radiance~]

A starmie would always be an excelent addition if it has good ivs. I also have a sheldder with good ivs and skill link that was wonder traded to me if anyone wants on as well. Ill breed the goomys in the next couple of days since its a low chance it will have the perfect ivs lol. as a heads up the goomy has a calm nature and is really meant to be run with assault vest and pure offensive moves.

@: Belle: goomy is the epitome of sexy obv

When I went to Genesis 2, I told my parents I was visiting my friend from school. The friend in question was FZies/Sazzy Latias/whatever he's calling himself nowadays. And I did not go to school with him. But they thought I did because at the APEX the year beforehand I told my parents all the pikachu players were friends from college- because I was housing all of them and that was the only way they'd go for it.

For the APEXs I drove back to NJ for I didn't even tell them.

For one tourney trip I went on to Maryland I told them I was sleeping at a friend's house (whose parent's my parents didn't know very well so I knew they wouldn't call) Friday and Saturday night.

One time I went to Delaware for a weekend to see a 'friend' of mine and all I told my parents was, "goin' out real quick." Showed up 2 days later. They were pissed, but it was worth it.

APEX would be worth it.

I paid for one of my APEX trips by telling my parents I was getting tutored in a class for a semester- Saved all the money- and boom. APEX.

There is always a lie you can tell to make it work. And sometimes the lie gets you a trip to California as well.

 

[PZ]

@ Roller I am bad since me coming here because I don't wanna throw money at people when I don't have a job....but a trip to APEX would involve so much money throwing that its not even funny. I am also sure I have the worst jet lag regardless of life's decisions....I lag on a daily basis though so its fine.

 

[Angiance]

Wow, what're you, a motivational speaker? Givin' us that push towards stuffz~

See I have no friends and so they'd sniff it out. Again, can't drive. Also not a liar. My status as a bad johner is not worth breaking my integrity and 18 years' worth of trust.

I'll go practice QAC or something, get a new controller, and get practicing. But it's just not worth that dude.

That said, I do understand why your location is "grime." Because those ideas are nauseating [to me].

 

[~Radiance~]

Uh its LatiasLulu tyvm. Nah FZ still sticks around. History sticks to your feet and whatnot, not that I dislike FZ. Tis a special name from a special time.

IMO your own personal motivation and drive is what will push you to do the things you love. Ive pushed myself to workout my body really hard when I had very little items to workout with, and managed to get results I wanted.

I too told a lie to a summer job boss in order to see roller and Co at APEX 1 in 2010.

I was able to work through tough decesions in school to get into grad school even when the work was overwhelming and seemed to be bogging me down immensly.

In my personal opinion, the tenacity you have towards a given goal will ultimatley decide if it happens or not, because if it is something really important to you you will do what it takes to make it happen, and if it dosent happen chances are you probably had more doubts about your passion for the subject that caused other substantiating factors to overide it.

tl/dr: IM A MAN OF PASSION!

 

[redfeatherraven]

I'm a man of science.

 

[Angiance]

Oh wow, y'all are tryin' to be psychiatrist and junk. Yes, in life the most reliable person is of course, our own self...self disbelief gets us nowhere. It's just how the human mind works; if you say to yourself "I can't do it" you won't do it, say "I will do this!" and you'll do it. Pretty simple really ^ - ^

 

[Phoenix Lord']

Actually, 2010 was Apex 2.

 

[Roller]

Oh wow, y'all are tryin' to be psychiatrist and junk.

LatiasLulu actually IS studying junk like that.

 

[redfeatherraven]

In fairness, I am not actually studying science.
It's more of a mad science approach.

 

[~Radiance~]

He is right I am in school to be a therapist lol.

also on another note, i was posting progress pics or whatever of me as I worked out so heres a recent pic of me with my sis. my arms and core are mostly all that can be seen as bigger from this pic.

 

[Angiance]

@Red: Mad science?...like nuclear fusion?

@FZ: a therapist with muscle? You must be preparing for some crazy patients, like the Hulk.

 

[Roller]

Definitely a difference there. Good stuff =]

 

[Scatz]

So skinny. All I see is raw skin and bones. <3

I should post my progression, but I've skipped about 5-6 years of it. Then I stopped working on the weights and went to body weight training (similar to gymnastics) in order to strengthen my core, back, and shoulders.

As for the whole Apex thing. I went on technically a truth and a lie. Long story short, I was cleared to go, but the experiences I had while travelling forced me to lie to preserve my smash status (travelling wise).

 

[Vale]

So, what do you guys think of the Rosalina reveal? If she can make thunderjolt turn into a shield that flies around her I'm going to make my doubles partner change mains.

 

[Angiance]

Wow, that's pretty awesome actually. Vale, think she's gonna be heavy?

 

[Vale]

I think she should be, but I'm not sure she actually will.

 

[Urban Menace]

It was all based on lies T_T, The Maryland Tourney was pound 5 right Roller? and we went to bdubs, i am shocked

 

[redfeatherraven]

Yeaaaah, I don't see heavy Rosalina happening at all. Except when I do? Compared jump animations from Rosalina's intro (1:35), Mega Man's intro (0:31), and WFT's intro (0:39). Ain't exactly frame-by-frame analysis, so get your grains of salt ready, but it looks like Rosalina has the shortest jump heights out of the set, although she doesn't seem to fall much faster than WFT does.
Again, plenty of healthy caveats to this observation.

Oh, and Mega Man looks floaty as ****? Is it just me? Does this unnerve anyone else?

Seems like she handles like the mechanical love child of Olimar and Ice Climbers. If both ends are useful in a fight, I could see her making an impact, but I bet she'll be a pain to learn.
Hope so, anyway; gives me more time to perfect my running away.

@Red: Mad science?...like nuclear fusion?

Like cracker deli sandwiches and mini MIDI keyboards with one off note.

I do it mostly to rock the lab coats.
