  1. It's just second nature for pikachus to thunder when characters are recovering to the stage but are still pretty high in the air. Even my buddy who mained pikachu for the longest time would do it often enough without thinking. What 3 rpg character archetypes/classes do you feel fit you the best? Do you have a wiiU? Or do you plan to get one under certain conditions? What do you think Kiozo's signature is telling you to deal with?
  2. My assassin skills customization from before I re-spec'd. I took the shots as reference in case I didn't like the changes. Legendary Assassin class mod > the mod you get from beating terramorphus.

    Sand- Banned for realizing that Iron Sands sounds way cooler than Iron Filings, which is far more accurate. Ackalack- Banned because it's better that you don't know what they're talking about. Naruto is something you would be better off leaving well enough alone.
  4. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-ldjgFHFII I'm kinda surprised and how quickly my siren has begun to catch up to my highest level character, the assassin. Also, I've never enjoyed any game's DLC nearly as much as I have for BL2.
  5. Tfw you remember the hard way that when you start BL2, you only have access to 2 weapon slots. D:<
  6. Lemme put it this way... Thunder is delicious. And force of habit will turn you into a chef.
  7. It seems a given that most, if not all, LoL characters are derived from other popular/iconic characters. So where do you think the characters got their inspiration from? I think even some skins get some extra inspiration from other places too. I'll start off with my theory for my favorite character, Riven. I'm pretty sure she's the female version of Cloud Strife. They're both broody over the things they did or helped do as soldiers following orders, searching for some means of forgiveness/redemption, carry around big swords and have similar character design- short, somewhat spiky hair with a military practicality to it, lean build with but a few key armor pieces for strategic protection but otherwise very light clothing for mobility. And from what I've seen, it seems that cloud's sword is made out of several swords combined, similar to Riven's sword shards. I'd say her ultimate, Wind Slash has two points of inspiration- Cloud and Inuyasha. Cloud has his Blade Beam which is similar to her attack and his other famous move is the sonic slash. Inuyasha's Wind Scar also works very similar, but instead of scaling based on how much stronger the foe is, it scales based on how much health the foe has lost, and her silver hair may be another nod to that source of inspiration. Others that I won't go into detail for yet: Rammus::Bowser Kaitlyn::Moxxie (Borderlands) Volbear:: those polar bears from the golden compass Nautilus::Big Daddy And Ame, I randomly ran into this: What do you think.
  8. As a pikachu, do you feel even at a slight disadvantage when fighting against Lucas? Which sets 3 pokemon would you choose for hypothetical new pokemon trainers in SSB? (popular example: mudkip, grovile, blaziken) Have you ever come across any crossovers that were particularly interesting to you?
  9. Cycling back to this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0c8B97gfnw
  10. Brawl or Melee? Who would your top 3-5 characters in Brawl be?
  11. One-eighth of the whole population were colored slaves, not distributed generally over the Union, but localized in the southern half part of it. These slaves constituted a peculiar, and powerful interest. All knew that this interest was, somehow, the cause of the war. To strengthen, perpetuate and extend this interest, was the object for which the insurgents would rend the Union, even by war; while the government claimed no right to do more, than to restrict the territorial enlargement of it. Neither party expected for the war, the magnitude, or the duration, which it has already attained. Neither anticipated that the cause of the conflict might cease with, or even before, the conflict itself should cease. Each looked for an easier triumph, and a result less fundamental and astounding. Both read the same Bible, and pray to the same God; and each invokes His aid against the other. It may seem strange that any men should dare to ask a just God's assistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of other men's faces; but let us judge not, that we be not judged. The prayers of both could not be answered—that of neither, has been answered fully. The Almighty has His own purposes. "Woe unto the world because of offenses! for it must needs be that offenses come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh." If we shall suppose that American slavery is one of those offenses which, in the providence of God, must needs come, but which, having continued through His appointed time, He now wills to remove; and that He gives to both north and south this terrible war, as the woe due to those by whom the offence came, shall we discern therein any departure from those divine attributes which the believers in a living God always ascribe to Him? Fondly do we hope—fervently do we pray—that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away. Yet, if God wills that it continue until all the wealth piled by the bondman's two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash, shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said, "the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether." With malice toward none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation's wounds; to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan—to do all which may achieve and cherish, a just and a lasting peace, among ourselves, and with all nations. -Abraham Lincoln

    But the person quoted is not nearly as important as the sentiment imparted. You should fill that suddenly empty signature.

    Banned for obviously not looking around the local video game store for years on end.
  18. No, no. Chatspeak is against the rules around here. Self-degenerative habit... And punctuation goes a long way towards making a block of text more tolerable to read. As far as why it would be a rule, well, we're kind of big on literacy around here. Trainer cards are kind of part of the league registration but you don't actually have to enter the league if you don't want to. http://www.pokemonreborn.com/league/register.html And there might be some customization shops on the boards where you can ask someone to create a custom trainer sprite/avatar for you.
  19. With a record for drugs and now shoplifting, you really think your chances of employment are going to be high? But yeah, looking back at that... why the fuck would your aunt just put you on blast like that?
  20. Took the old SAT. 1450/1600. Top 6%, yo. 750 English 700 Math
  21. To be, or not to be: that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, And by opposing end them? To die: to sleep; No more; and by a sleep to say we end The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks That flesh is heir to, 'tis a consummation Devoutly to be wish'd. To die, to sleep; To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there's the rub; For in that sleep of death what dreams may come When we have shuffled off this mortal coil, Must give us pause: there's the respect That makes calamity of so long life; For who would bear the whips and scorns of time, The oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely, The pangs of despised love, the law's delay, The insolence of office and the spurns That patient merit of the unworthy takes, When he himself might his quietus make With a bare bodkin? who would fardels bear, To grunt and sweat under a weary life, But that the dread of something after death, The undiscover'd country from whose bourn No traveller returns, puzzles the will And makes us rather bear those ills we have Than fly to others that we know not of? Thus conscience does make cowards of us all; And thus the native hue of resolution Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought, And enterprises of great pith and moment With this regard their currents turn awry, And lose the name of action. - Soft you now! The fair Ophelia! Nymph, in thy orisons Be all my sins remember'd.
