Ahhh the possibly upcoming strike... I honestly don't mind the strike, but if they strike for more than 2-3 weeks, I'd say there goes my winter vacation. I only want the strike to happen 'cause I have to catch up on my reading hahahaha

Anyways, I'm down for tomorrow.. I want to bring my Brawl A-game all the time, but I come here right after my lecture, and I'm tired lol

oh this reminds me, i found a glitch in dkc2 the other day. i'm sure it's well-known in some even nerdier community than the smash bros one, but i've never heard of it. it probably works either way but is likely easier like this: have diddy throw dixie, and then jump just before you recatch her, and you go about twice as high as you should. i found this in a bonus level on the Slime Climb level in "world" 3...there are a bunch of bugs off to the right, and platforms to keep jumping up on the left. if i hit a bug with dixie and jump with diddy at the right time, i jump up two platforms.

other things...if you're doing a throwing animation, you pass through ropes (like at the beginning of bramble scramble)...and i think if you get shot out of a barrel in air, you don't slow down when you hit water, but keep going as if it were more air. either that or there's some kind of similar glitch near the end of slime climb...there's a barrel at the end that shoots you onto the finish flag thingy, but if you, uh, DI left instead you start falling through the water.

yeah, I knew about those already

yeah, thought so. still cool to find stuff on your own though =) i think i found one or two things in super metroid too. if not actual glitches then just fast/faster ways of doing something.

alright you scrubs. Its mini tournament time.
we could have a tourney where the prize is dinner, and everyone pitches in a certain amount (less for 2nd place)...

I won't be able to bring my SNES :*( I won't be able to go to my house after my school ends and it's way to bulky to carry it to school...

The only thing I can bring are the cartriages and controllers if someone else brings their SNES

Pop-Can Tourney II: York U Edition. :D:pikachu::laugh:


Let's use tournament mode.
YEAH!!! IN JAPANESE!!! WITHOUT ERIC'S HELP!!!! :bee: we're so pro...

lol you guys would probably end up doing 5 stocks 2 mins on rainbow cruise only with handicaps. lol <3 Paul.

But, yeah, that sounds awesome if we can do that. I'll bring my camera, Wii+GG+SNES games on it + Melee and maybe cube if I can fit it all in there. I might be able to too, I'm really good at Tetris :D

edit: lol I have Police posts.

to spot kyle just look for a guy who looks like he's 15, likes old rock, and is just extremely chill.

usually wears pink floyd t-shirts or led zeppelin apparel.

i don't even like led zeppelin that much. they're probably not in my top 10 favourite bands...i just never bother to buy more clothes.

They're voting on the strike today at 4 o'clock. I have a paper due tomorrow, but if the strike hits, I get an extra week to do it, so I'm praying for the deals between the TAs and the administration to fall through. If the strike lasts for more than 2.5 weeks, everyone in a 3 credit course has to repeat it. That ****ing blows. All of my courses are full year though.

JustNoOne, I'll play you in Hyper Fighting, I love that game to death. I can bring my SNES at the next Smash meeting, I also have Donkey Kong Country and SF II: World Warrior. I'm going to be l33t and bring my SNES arcade stick too.

^ bring stuff anyway, we don't know who's bringing what. that's the general rule actually - when in doubt, bring cube and melee (and tv if applicable)

ideally your class should have told you what they're doing =P at the worst, you just have it on the day you come back. if your professor/TAs are nice they'll let you hand it in late (since as far as i know, in classes with TAs, the TAs mark everything)

To KirbyKaze, your math test will be moved until the strike is over, so your best bet is to keep studying for it and wait for the strike to be over.

Will anyone show up next Wednesday/Tuesday?

This strike has me pissed off, seriously, it didn't have to come to this, if this strike lasts a long time, you can say good bye to reading week and summer vacation.

Updated the first post. For anyone too lazy to check, Smash is postponed until the strike breaks. I've been told it will last anywhere between a week to a month, but no more than a month, so take some comfort in that. I'm still not sure if 3 credit courses have to be retaken if the strike extends for more than 2 or 3 weeks, I think that was just hype.

Until then, we need lots of events and stuff.

I heard some guy and girl had sex on the dance floor during the halloween party last thursday.

lol I was talking to my friend today about york and she told me. Can anyone confirm this? Sounds too farfetched.

I dunno man, after hearing about the Hentai room from Tameka I don't think anything's too farfetched anymore.

i remember hearing about this happening a few weeks ago/last year at some other party. doesn't seem too unreasonable. i'm pretty sure university students try to get as drunk as possible at these things.

I'm going to anime north this year FOR SURE.
LOL me too...although i'm pretty sure we'd all feel uncomfortable hanging around the hentai booth together <_< or, y'know, at all.

Resurrected from the dead!
