Anyway, is anybody else going to see Dinner for Schmucks?
Steve Carell + Zach Galifianakis = Do want to see
This looks so hilariously stupid and stupidly hilarious. Inception is probably a higher priority on my watch list but I definitely want to catch this one.

Inception was so amazing, I'm still taking showers so that my brain can be cleansed from the ****-ness.
._.

Dinner for Schmucks looks funny, but also pretty stupid. I'm not a fan of Steve Carell (i.e., I hate The Office, never saw Date Night, that one where he was a secret agent was only decent, etc.)

However, Zach Galifianakis is one of my favorites, the Hangover was SO funny.

Anyone seen the preview for the one with Galifianakis and Robert Downey Jr, where Downey has to get back to see his baby born? THAT one looks HILARIOUS.

Isn't this CAP Dark/Fighting with VOLT ABSORB?

I think I'm more upset over that than anything. I guess with the right design it has potential to make at least a lick of sense but none of those fit the bill. Except maybe the last one.

I don't blame 'em. While the latter three are awesome, they don't feel like Pokémon as much as the first. The second is like Vincent Valentine Darkrai, the third is just no, and the fourth is just a tad too detailed. Simplicity wins, especially when simplicity looks more like an animal than the others. I would vote for the last one so long as they could clean it up just a bit.

Spire, did you make a "Im not a mod" post somewhere and I just missed it or is this your way of telling us?
Yeah, he did.

That's the CAP for smogon? The newest one? Doesn't look as great as some of the others :/

Cyclohm by far was my favorite, aesthetically. But that's my opinion.

CAP 11 is Dark / Fighting with Volt Absorb and Lightningrod. That's pretty ridiculous, since both abilities are reserved for you know, Electric-types.

Edit - Some Ground-types get Lightningrod.

Well I was about to agree with spire on the simplicity, but then I saw the lower half of the top pic beating thoese 3 (Pic fluxed up and I only got the top). it looked mad cool until it grew legs. Sorry but last one looks the best and could be simplified down

The first one doesn't even look like a pokemon. Even less, it doesn't even fit the **** concept. There is simply nothing good about the first picture, at all. The art, concept, design, and horrible choice of colours are all ****.
The third one is the most like a pokemon, and other than the lighting, its not too complicated at all, and its overall design is very similar to how Pokemon make references with their creatures. I can find you several Pokemon with more features than that Pokemon.

As for the design, the pokemon that is winning makes perfect sense of it. Also, there should be no problem giving Volt Absorb to a Pokemon who isn't lighting. Simply because a pattern existed in the past doesn't mean that pattern can't be broken.

I can see how the pins and needles might work for lightningrod. Volt absorb? Hell no. My favorite so far are the bat thing and

I personally like....



Looks like a pokemon and fits in well with the concept of a special attacking, fighting type. It's abilities also make sense which is something I think the vodoo doll doesn't capture as well.

My only problem with it is that it doesn't seem as dark as other pokemon on the list but the CAP IS fighting type first then dark. However, if it was a bit darker in colour I think it would easily fit the dark type as well.

They had that and a giant bronzong-like thing that looked amazing.

I don't get why it lost either.

I wasn't surprised when DJD's ridiculous rapetacular voodoo doll got 1st place. I mean, the CAP community wanted a ****ing PRAWN to have a base 151 HP -.-
I hated that **** shrimp, the art that got second (Wasn't it that angler fish concept) Should have easily won it.

Those are my favorite two.
I think that they look the most like Pokémon.

A lot of the CAP pokes look good, but none of them had all the criteria to go with it. The ones that made the final poll were plausible for Dark/Fighting but nothing else. Some looked stronger in attack than sp.attack. Others didn't even look like they could get volt absorb OR lightningrod. And of course, there were too many ninja looking pokes for this CAP.

I am 12 years old and at is a CAP pokeman?
CAP stands for Create a Pokémon. It's when a forum gets together to, well, create a Pokémon. They decide on Types, Moves, Abilities, Sprites (What it looks like) and so on.

Hey, everyone who has experience with life and stuff.

Should I get a credit card? I recently turned 18 and I'm going to college. I feel like a debit card would be better, but I don't know ****, so. Halp?

get a debit card first, and make sure you can be responsible with it. however getting a credit card is sorta necessary, so you can build up good credit. just be careful about credit cards so you dont get trapped in debt

I'm 18, and I start college in Jan. Though you know this, we are very similar. Let me tell you how to hack your Credit Score.

This is what I'm going to do:

Get a Credit Card

Do nothing but put Gas on it (maybe more, but by gas I mean stuff YOU KNOW you can pay off)

Pay it all off THAT MONTH so there is no interest build

Profit off your Credit Score+


Think of it as grinding xp. You put only 75/month on it, pay it all off, profit from gradual credit +

=)

So guys, how are you all doing? My GF got a job where I am, so we're getting some decent income. I do play Maplestory casually, but only cause I think I have weird reasons to liking it. Also, I got my hand burned my 350 degrees grease yesterday. Yay =D Not on much because of work and such, but I'll stick around. <.<

A materball.






Nah, you get better rates on loans and stuff. On a more serious though, Credit Scores are one of the dumbest systems in modern day society.

The ability to buy a house or car, or get a loan or even higher end jobs.

Good credit shows you are responsible and will pay off money that companies/Government gives you.

I plan to rack up score with the Credit Card my college gave me for food and whatnot, and then just pay that off.

Edit@CRASHiC, It is not dumb, it is a good way to show loan companies, ect who to loan to so we don't end up in a rescission like we did due to bad loans.

We're already in a recession, so you're a bit late on that remark.

Hm. So make big purchases with money that I actually have, and make smaller purchases with money I don't? Sounds like it could work.

Any suggestions for which credit card company?

Most of the major companies are run by the same parent company Wave. Since you've got no credit and won't apply for the high up benefits, just go with Master-Card or Visa. They are accepted mostly anywhere, and you can't expect to get a great deal on one right now.

I don't think that person's trolling. In the TCG, the LV. X cards let you "evolve" fully evolved Pokémon.
