  1. Hi there Razkar! Welcome to Reborn! Don't worry, you'll be able to get gastly again at some point. It looks like others covered the clauncher thing, so I'll just reiterate the welcome message Hope to see you around!
  2. Hi there! Welcome to Reborn! You've certainly been playing for a long time and have a very comprehensive list of why the game is awesome Good luck with Rejuv intense mode! Hope to see you around!
  3. Nope. Despite spending many hours in shops, I refused to buy anything (partly because the Australian dollar is really bad at the moment so everything in America is super expensive. Also I didn't really feel like I needed anything. If I had seen something I really liked I would have bought it, but we spent most of our times in expensive male fashion stores/ sports stores so I didn't want anything.
  4. Firstly, welcome to Reborn! I thought I should just try to address some of the negatives (this isn't to say you aren't entitled to dislike things about the game- that's not my point at all). 1- One of the major points of Reborn is to make sure that you don't use the pokemon that get used all the time. While some people might be sad they can't use their favourites from the get go, you can come to love pokemon that are often ignored in the main series games. Of course, if you want to use the main pokemon this can be a problem, but you can catch some normal early pokemon. 2- The city is meant to be a desolate place that is devoid of life. It is meant to be really depressing and dark in the early game. If you check out the E16 status discussion, you'll see some of the refurbished maps, so it starting off really dark creates a lot of contrast when the city is fixed up. It is really miserable at first, but will be transformed into a much happier place. 3- The healing ruin isn't a bad idea. Other than that, nothing here is going to change. It is a major part of the plot that has been around for ages. It is a really tough boss, that I can never be bothered beating, but I think it does fit in stylistically with El's cultist ways. 4- I'm not a huge fan of the map either, but it works well enough. It is possible it will be expanded for fly, but if it stays the way it is, it will just be a little confusing initially. 5- Dragons are often really overpowered. You can get Noiverns and Altarias pretty early on (and a possible haxorus through the mystery egg), but the more op dragon types would make the game much easier. I think we'll get some in the next couple of episodes.
  5. Hello there Rebornians! Mde here, with a recount of my time in the country many of you call home. So over the last week and a half I was in the USA, mostly for the purpose of attending NHSMUN, the largest model united nations competition in the world. There were over 3500 delegates from countries all over from the world at the conference! So after spending an entire day travelling over a day to get to New York we arrived at our hotel at 11:30 at night before heading out to get dinner. Anyway, the next day the conference began. We headed out to Times Square for breakfast before being told we could go shopping for a couple of hours... you probably don't know this about me, but I detest shopping with a passion. So after being bored for hours, my torture was over and we headed off to the Museum of Modern Art. When I find an art gallery a nice change, you know I hate the previous activity. But to be fair, MOMA was actually pretty interesting and had some great art. Then after attending a training session, we had the opening ceremony. We were lucky enough to have Samantha Power (the united states ambassador) as a guest speaker. She was incredibly interesting so I felt really lucky to hear her speak. After the ceremony was over we began the first committee session. I was on the Special Political and Decolonization committee (SPECPOL), which was the largest committee in the conference with around 450 people (several of whom were partners representing a single country). My school was representing Yemen, and I was alone on my committee which was a little intimidating as there were people several years older than me. However, once we got down to business things got more interesting. The first session wasn't the most interesting as a large percentage of it was setting the agenda. We had two issues that we had researched being the Occupied Territories of Azerbaijan, and the Palestinian Refugee situation. After many speeches, our committee selected the latter, and through a series of moderated caucus sessions, we began to work out the other delegates general positions. However, I was still pretty jet lagged at this point so I didn't contribute very much. The next day we got to meet the actual Yemeni diplomats at their embassy, which was amazing. We were initially talking to a senior economic adviser, until the Yemeni ambassador returned from briefing the Security Council about the current humanitarian situation in Yemen. All of the diplomats there were prepared to answer our questions and speak really honestly to us. It is something I will remember for the rest of my life. We walked home via central park, to go to our next committee session. I was less tired this time, and got much more involved this time. I found a bloc to work with, led by the Netherlands, and started to draft possible solutions with the other delegates. This session was a lot of fun as it allowed us to start to get our ideas together. After a short break we had another session, where we put together out working papers, which was a way to put all of ours ideas down in resolution format. We merged with a group lead by Turkmenistan to create a working paper with about 60 sponsors/ signatories. We moved onto debate over the working papers (which were distributed to the whole committee), and eventually we merged with two other groups as well. With these new groups, we were ready to move onto writing draft resolutions, which was harder to contribute to as there were now so many people. None the less, with the ideas of so many people with different perspectives, we were able to create a really comprehensive solution. The only other draft resolution that was being written was lead by the delegates for Iran, The Democratic Republic of Congo, Swaziland and North Korea. They took a much more radical approach than our paper. The next day the draft resolutions were distributed, then we moved onto some debate over the content of the draft resolutions, followed by the drafting of amendments. These were either passed or failed to put the draft resolutions into their final forms. Then we moved onto the final vote. In the end the other draft resolution was failed, and our one was passed. This was really exciting as we had worked really hard! We were in committee for 17 hours in total which was grueling but a lot of fun. The delegate dance was next, which I went to for about 6 minutes because these things are my torture as I hate loud music, crowds and flirty teenagers. Those of you who were on the sever that night would have known about my massive sleeping problems that night, as they experienced my ranting then. Anyway, the next day we moved onto the closing ceremony. This was in the actual general assembly hall of the united nations which was incredible! The ceremony itself was a bit dull, but being in the actual hall was incredible. Then we went and did more shopping (we shopped for about 9 hours in New York). We were going to go to the Museum of Natural Science, but it was crowded and everyone else complained and made us leave After this we moved to Washington. The first night we did the Monuments tour and went around seeing a lot of cool stuff. It was nice seeing it all again because I lived in Washington for 2 months like 5 years ago. The next morning we went to the Smithsonians. We spent two hours in the Air and Space Museum and an hour in the Museum of Natural History. I loved this, but if was made difficult by the fact that everyone else complained the whole time. We went off to the Capitol, which was amazing as well! It was a great morning. Then we went to Macy's (ew) and spent ages in there. Followed by us going back to the hotel. The next morning we went to the Renwick, which was an incredible modern art gallery that blew me away. Following this, we had a quick photo stop outside the White House before heading off to the airport to fly home! Overall, it was an experience I will remember for the rest of my life. If anyone has any questions I'd love to answer them. I was going to put in some more detail, but this post would be too long if I put in too much. Mde
  6. Wow! Awesome job on your intro thread! It is great to see someone put in that much effort! Have a great time here at Reborn! You've already got the game side sorted, but if you do have any questions on it in the future be sure to ask! We're always happy to answer! Also yay for pokemon crystal :D Hope to see you around!
  7. Just look at what Arkhi said. I was completely misremembering. Oops... This guide will tell you where every item is in the game.
  8. I'm home :D. I'll probably write something up about my trip a bit later if I can be bothered.

  14. Guys, in future you don't need to explain the same thing three times unless the op asks for clarification. Also I'm moving this to Reborn city as it isn't a bug
  15. I've said this on the server, but congrats again Zumi! I have no doubt you'll do a fantastic job and you are incredibly deserving of the position. You'll do great as well Rose! Sorry if there are spelling mistakes. This is being done on mobile at an airport.
  16. I'm going to a model UN in New York for the next 10 days, so I won't be around all that much. I won't have skype or RPGMaker access, so if you need to contact me forum PM is the way to go. I'll try to check it as much as I can.

      Just don't get too involved in the 'debate'. I went to all the major ones in Europe. Focus on what you like doing and making friends. The rest will come naturally.

  17. Okay, usually I would wait until it is the actual question but I had to answer this. I am kind of obsessed with musical theater tbh. So you don't get a single answer. You get a list. Into the Woods- stuff the movie. It ruined what is one of the funniest and cleverest musicals of all time. The songs are great and the lyrics are incredibly clever. Wicked- I didn't love this one when I saw it the first time, but it was mostly because the Melbournian cast was pretty weak when I first saw it. The songs are incredible and the story is very engaging as well. Chess- It makes me sad that this one often flies under the radar. Chess is an incredible musical with some great songs that range from emotional ballads to big numbers. The production of this that I saw was one of the best casts in a musical that I've seen! Les Mis- How couldn't I put this here? It is fantastic. That's all I have to say. Little Shop of horrors- I just love this musical with a passion. It is incredibly catchy and has a great plot West Side Story- Upbeat and brilliant. Great music, acting parts and an interesting adaption of Romeo and Juliet. Honorable mentions: My Fair Lady, The Sound of Music and Jesus Christ Superstar
