Been watching a lot of speedruns for various Metroid games...these guys are crazy, but it's neat seeing the different tricks they use to save frames...

It's actually kinda funny how many different kinds of 'runs' there are for Super...just goes to show how many ways you can play the game...

Has anyone seen the new image on Scottgames?

Looks like someone who could be easily shipped with Balloon Boy.

When it comes to fandoms, no shipping can be avoided.

You'd be surprised at the number of FNAF pairs that exist.

It already does... There might even be more than one

Gaster x Boatman and Froggit x Whimscott gave me the chortles.

But no Aaron x Temmie is disappointing. That pairing's inclusion would have lead me to give this chart a solid tem out of tem.

 

[AwesomeAussie27]

Speaking of chortles, I've found a Mario shipping chart that's too good to pass.

Spoiler

Who the hell would ship the babies together? Or the relatives for that matter (Mario x Luigi, DK x Diddy, etc)?

Am halfway through Fates: Conquest and I must say that I'm having a much more enjoyable time with this one than I did Birthright. The story/characters are still weak, but the gameplay is very solid. It's a shame IS thinks they can't find a balance.

Part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhQeuT0cTGM

Not sure how many people on SWF are retro gamers but I thought I'd share some of the drama that's been going on in the NES
community the past three months as it's both heartwarming and hilariously salty.

One of the key factors for certain retro games going up in price is due to collectors buying up multiple copies and trying to control the market prices for the given game, at least for Triple A rare titles.

A literal super collector, who until recently was recluse, has started selling off/donating his holy grail tier collection in order to make a statement to those who try to hold monopolies on various titles. Which has angered those who are interested in making profit by price manipulation (ex. bidding up eBay auctions to "protect the value"). It's basically an anti-Mariotehplumber story.

While there are communication issues, I'm just glad the SWF staff doesn't abuse their power like what happened in Part 3. Banning people out of jealousy/protecting your wallet is beyond petty.

Did look into this a little bit more. Seems he was actually temp-banned due to trolling other users and posting Donald Trump spam. Kind of a shame, especially them being a Trump supporter , but in their defense they did join after they were being trolled themselves by other users.

Forum drama is certainly fickle, and it's definitely proof of just how much goes on behind the scenes that most users are naturally unaware of. Their staff probably could have handled it a bit better, but it's good to learn that money wasn't a factor in their decision making.

> Daisy x Bowser
> Baby Mario x Baby Luigi
> Waluigi x Wario
> Mario x Yoshi
> Bowser Jr. x Bowser
> Baby Peach x Baby Daisy

These are the prime examples of bad ships here.

LOL at Yoshi x himself though.

Still a better love story than Twilight 50 Shades of Grey.

Yes, I hate those two very dearly.

You haven't seen the worst of it. Some people ship Sonic with a tree, no joke.

It unfortunetly does. I've seen some fanart of it on Deviantart, and it wasn't pretty.

Try Heather from Total Drama Island x a pineapple. I am not making this up love, this **** is real as it gets.

The original fanfiction itself is PERFECT example of why Fanfiction.net could be DeviantArt's partner in law with its disturbing or poorly written works.

Crickey!

Great, now look what you guys made me look up.

*EDIT* What the heck? Sorry, sorry, had no idea something was up with them!

Christ, what terrible things you can see on Fanfiction.net. I've seen my fair share of disturbing troll fics (one involving Sasuke and a snake), but that sounds like the worst of them all.

LOL this was made by someone else from that social.

I tend to be more than happy to sing that exact fact into the high heavens whenever I can, though.

Seen that one before and I found it bad. Not that I was disturbed by it, but it was plain bad by Naruto shipping standards.

Samus is a strong independent woman, who don't need no ship!..........wait....
Also, no Ike on the married list. Priam exists. Deal with it.

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

Samus is a strong independent woman, who don't need no ship!.........

Yet she needs a ship to travel the galaxy on her missions.

Yeah, there's evidence to support Ike getting married and having a kid to a woman.

Priam, his descendant, looks pretty similar.

Wait, what?!



Sorry, sorry! I got them out!

*starts scanning computer immediately*

I just copy-pasted them off of an image search without loading the sites they were on or saving them. Any chance that makes my computer any safer, or am I completely messed over just for bringing them over?

What about Exdeath x The Void Cloud of Darkness? Is that a lovely pair?

Well now I'm freaking out a bit.

I've been trying to look up the answer to my question, and some things say if you so much as click on the image to go into the enlarged display without even going to the exact page like what I did you can catch a virus.

I'm running my antivirus but I've heard people say it's garbage.

Did I catch a virus just by clicking on it?

Whoah, James Rolfe says he's not only going to not review Ghostbusters 2016, he's not even going to watch it

Again, I'm really sorry about all that, guys. I hope I didn't accidentally give any of you viruses with my careless linking.

I did a full system scan with my antivirus, downloaded some antimalware thing that supposedly fills in some of the gaps, did a full system scan with that too, and found nothing. But then, I've heard my antivirus is garbage.

Oh gosh, I think my new thing I'm gonna be worried about is that I have a ton of viruses that my garbage antivirus isn't detecting and that I'm going to drag everyone else down with me.
