Social "Time to Tip the Scales!" - Robin Social Thread

[Raziek]

So there's this idea running around in my head(that I've also seen in other character forums) that I feel would be well applied here.

What if we had some sort of activity, say, weekly(or with a set time frame of days under a week) or whatever, where we interviewed notable Robin players(or frequenters to this thread that also use Robin)? Set up a new thread, make a voting system with a deadline, and for the next few days/week, that person gets interviewed? It wouldn't be just about Robin play, it could be about topics in general(with limits, of course, you don't want to make the interviewee feel uncomfortable), and after the time frame passes, voting round starts once more and the cycle begins anew.

I wanted feedback on this idea, but I think that as a community, it could give us more insight on each other and bring us together even more. Plus it's a fun little pastime.

@ Raziek because you're in charge around here I'd like your opinion.

We actually used to do this in the Decisive Games sub-forum that I also moderate, and it was a very popular thing.

I would love to see it done around here, I think it's great to build community.

That said, I certainly can't head such a thing myself, as I've got a lot on my plate already, but if someone has the time/motivation to do it, you have my support 110%.

 

[AustarusIV]

I...missed the 1000th page...

What am I supposed to do with my life now?! Everything that I have accomplished up until this point has been turned to naught...

I'm a complete and utter failure as a demon. I'm just going to go crawl into a hole and die, alone and hated. Sayonara, to those who were lucky enough to make it in.

I'll head it, then. I was mainly looking for approval of mod God in this case.

I'll set it up later.

I mean, if it makes you feel better, you already died in the RST Hunger Games. I killed you with a poisoned sword.

 

[Kenith]

I dunno guys, I kinda like gender-swapped Dancer Inigo.

 

[AustarusIV]

Then how am I still here talking to you?

And wasn't I the winner of the Hunger Games at one point?

This looks like a call for more Hunger Game simulators

 

[Kenith]

Where is the FE Hunger Games sim anyway?

Oh, we had it in another forum I participated a long time ago.
It's a really neat thing and indeed makes the community feel more united.

Props to you for having this idea.

Incidentally:

EDIT: Oh yeah and Blade Lord Lyn is da bess.

Lyn 4 Smash kthnx based Samurai~

 

[Chapter Serf]

What do you guys think about making a Team over at SquidBoards for Robin? The Robin Splatoon Team.

Yay/Nay?

What is it? I'm only at 16x.

Chapter 26: Battle Before Dawn.

Two bosses (one of whom is a roaming boss), divergent paths, multiple chests on both sides (with thieves), promoted enemy units, an extremely fragile recruit on one side with another potential recruit on the other, a constantly-spawning stream of enemies that will try and kill the character you have to defend, a time limit in case you fancy taking your time getting the chests, Fog of War and Bolting.

 

[Moydow]

On my computer
working on turning it into a PHP script though, so it can run on web browsers, and then I can maybe open it up for everyone to use

Well thanks for the heads up. How many attempts did it take you?

 

[Wintropy]

About five or six, counting the times I restarted because I didn't make the right preparations.

My advice? Divide the party in two, each taking a different side of the map, and clear the eastern and western corridors before reconvening in the center. You don't have to get the chests, though they are very useful, and you'll want to get down to the center-south room anyway in order to guard the unit in there. There's a neutral unit at the eastern side, and you need to recruit them first and then talk to the other neutral unit at the western side in order to get the side-chapter afterwards, as well as both units thereafter.

Spoiler

The units in question are Nino and Jaffar. You need to recruit Nino first, then have her talk to Jaffar, and you'll unlock a side-chapter. You get to use both in that chapter, and Jaffar will remain on your side thereafter.

Fog of War?!
Does it work the same as in Advance Wars??

 

[Wintropy]

A-yup~

The Torch staff works like the flare rockets in Advance Wars, and the Thief class has a similar function to infantry standing on mountains, i.e. enhanced vision.

No.

And yes, like in Advance Wars, enemies can see through it, as if it wasn't there.

Well I looked up the treasures, and only three of them and one item drop will actually matter to me.

Spoiler

Oh, and I'm well aware about Nino and Jaffar. I never thought I'd actually be able to play the game so I looked up the chapters and read the spoilers on Tv Tropes. But I have the game so... at least I know what I'm up against.

 

[Elezir]

To anyone interested, here's FE:A 'official' manga.
It's mostly comedic shenanigans, though, so don't expect a novelation of the game's story like Marth's manga.

 

[Mr. Johan]

Oh my gosh, whoda thought Sheik would be the most efficient The Imprisoned killer.

Bolero of Fire special attack takes care of the ******* in a flash.

 

[Champ Gold]

This is still the best one

I remember that chapter, it took me a few tries to beat it.

That Robin one was fanmade. The guy who made the original series isn't doing them anymore:

If you look at the end of that video, he mentions that he's done with the series.

 

[Mr. Johan]

90 on my first Ochem quiz.

95 on my first Physics quiz.

98 on my first Physics lab.

Hey, this "No computer for the summer" thing really works after all!

 

[Deleted member]

He's technically just taking a very strong hiatus from it until he may or may not be interested in it again.

 

[Mr. Johan]

I'm riding with Alpharad to the tournament this weekend. I'll try and convince him. =p

 

[Zantetsugun]

Oh my gosh, whoda thought Sheik would be the most efficient The Imprisoned killer.

Bolero of Fire special attack takes care of the ******* in a flash.

Bolero of Fire is one of the strongest single hit attacks in the game, period.

Combine that with Song of Storms giving you 4 hearts worth of invincibility, and Sheik is a force to be reckoned with.

 

[Coolpool2]

Well it's probably better for Alpharad to do something else instead of getting burned out on it. I always say quality is the most important thing.

 

[Célja]

I need to finish FE7, though it will have to wait until I complete my 1st run of Sacred Stones.

Once I take care of those, I'll go back and play through Erika's route in SS. Hopefully by then the wait for If won't make me crazy. c:

Though if need be, I can always play Awakening for the 18th time and maybe try Lunatic mode while I'm at it.

 

[Moydow]

Why is Splatoon's match-making so awful :/
I'm at level 7, and I just had to play against two level 20 snipers on Arowana Mall. Never stood a chance of winning; I think my team finished up with like 10% of the turf :/

 

[Kotor]

Oh my gosh, whoda thought Sheik would be the most efficient The Imprisoned killer.

The Bolero of Fire and Sheik's C3 are perfect for taking out the weak point gauges on Giant Bosses on one run. If only that was the case for the Imprisoned.

I had just completed everyone in the Master Quest Map!

And guess what? For some reason, Miiverse thinks this is a spoiler! You know what that means, right? Oh, Pet Shop!

Play!

 

[Célja]

Splatoon defiantly needs some fine tuning with it's online multiplayer. I know we'll be getting patches and updates down the road, but the way it currently is almost feels like I'm playing Brawl's online again.

It could also add in a bit of variety to the head to head mode as well.

 

[Mr. Johan]

The Bolero of Fire and Sheik's C3 are perfect for taking out the weak point gauges on Giant Bosses on one run. If only that was the case for the Imprisoned.

But at least Sheik can just light up The Imprisoned's feet, and then throw out another for the weak point gauge since the Fire special is so fast.

Where other characters have to either risk getting by the shockwaves by bobbing and weaving around the toes and try to cut them, or just use a full special gauge to do it, and then risk getting caught in a laggy animation just as the Imprisoned starts moving, Sheik can do all of that, safely, in four moves. Awesome.
