Anstane

I guess I'll catch up to you guys in a year or so. I mean, I'm what, 600 posts and a few months short? Have fun with you Ace-ness And yeah, OS problems are the worst. Micky?

No, I was not because the damn laptop stops loading before it can get to a System Restore. Debojit?

TFW your laptop stops working and nothing you try seems to be able to fix it...

...so that's how you get into the BIOS to get the Boot USB drive to load. Alright, thank you Debojit, now I'm making progress. Micky? EDIT: Nope, all that's changed now is that I get Blue Screened instead of Black Screened.

I CAN'T because it goes straight from the ASUS logo to the Windows Logo with the "Preparing Automatic Repair" screen, then it fades, what looks like a Dos box flashes on screen for .1 second and then...nothing. Just a black screen with the mouse cursor. Even when I put in a Windows 10 Boot Disk (Well, USB drive, but...), nothing happens. Debojit?

Windows 10 was kind of forced upon this laptop after Windows 8 borked. I'm starting to suspect this laptop might be borked altogether... Micky?

Great...laptop borked. Again. Gonna try to see if I can use Windows 10 Installation Media to fix it, but if I find it doesn't work...well, someone is going to be very mad at me for the fact that, despite me being in my third year of Informatics, I don't know how to fix a broken laptop. I suspect it will be a driver issue (Well, I don't really know, what happened was that I was using it and, suddenly, Mozilla stopped responding. I tried to Ctrl+Alt+Esc up Task Manager and otherwise turn off Mozilla, but nothing would respond. I forcefully shut the computer off and back on, only for it to first go to "Preparing automatic Repair", then to a black screen with cursor with no chance to sign in or anything.) Lugruf, any ideas what might be causing this?

If I told you, we'd both be dead within the hour. Me from talking too much, you from knowing too much. Lugruf?

I have my methods. Micky?

Well, I wouldn't say India is quite the other side of the world from Europe. Maybe on the next 1/4'th of the world, perhaps? Or are you referring to Eurasia vs the Americas in general, Viri?

That's assuming he got the Eevee from Chrysolia. If he did and didn't evolve it to something else, yeah. Glaceon is VERY strong against Terra, Able to endure some attacks and able to hit with very powerful SE attacks. If that's not available, there are other options in Celestinine/Ametrine mountains: Walrein, Froslass, Glalie, Avalugg and Cryogonal are all good options against Terra that can be found in the two mountains, and Abomasnow in the grass on Ametrine Mountain as well. Plus, any Ice-type will also help immensely against Ciel, so...yeah.

*Anstane uses Covet!* *Anstane Stole the foe Spine's BlueMoonIceCream!* *Anstane released BlueMoonIceCream!* There. Are you okay, Micky?

Articuno

I've been pretty good with more intermediate things in math, but more complex things like integrals, those cause me some real trouble. Thankfully, the calculations won't be quite as bad here. And I'm 99% sure I'll be screwing them up at least twice per map if I do make it in.

Well, I'm about to sleep. We seem to be in different timezones which would explain the activity while you're gone. Lugruf? Turns out phone autocorrects timezones to timelines.

You can pretty much just set up on Wigglytuff. Use a bunch of X items or buffs on the mon you want while Wiggly uses up it's 10 Dazzling Gleams, then sweep his team. Recommend using an X Speed among them to be able to outspeed his mons.

Appearantly not. JazzyFur?

Welcome to the party. Where we live we celebrate All Hallows day and...that's it. Nothing else from July 4'th all the way to Christmas. Micky?

Eh, don't worry about it. You didn't miss much, believe me. Jazzy, would you be willing to join us in for at least a brief spiel?

No. Not him. Not yet. Micky?

*groan* Puns... Debojit?

To be honest, I didn't expect a battle between 2 powerful wizards to be...well, just kind of not all that engaging for me. I'll be honest: I'm not really a fan of this, which is why I kind of want to stop it for now. Leave it for a battle on Wednesday where eventually the Master loses and I go back to my old self (Read: Change my Avatar back to the old one, after Halloween has passed). Viri?

(You really are trying to push for the battle before even Halloween arrives, aren't you...well, sometimes the simplest solutions are the best) The Master and the Shadow Umbreon, while preparing a new circle, noticed the shifting ground while the former also sensed the approaching of the intruder. "Looks like the bastard thinks he can assault us directly. Alright then..." The Master conjures up a spell, encasing the chamber and surrounding area in yet another shell. This one is much simpler and, thus, completely invisible to even the most sensitive magical detection. It's effect is simple: Anyone who enters it in any way, shape or form is put into a trance, the same one the Glaceon and Dewott are in. Those already inside are unaffected. "And, just to make sure..." the Master places a rune on the ground where the Pentagram had shifted. It's effect was simple: First thing to step on it would become paralyzed. A nasty paralysis that prevents damn near all movement or action. Finally, just to make sure, the Master uses an enchantment on himself and the Umbreon, making them immune to any runes, to avoid any accidents. (K_H?)

Wow, that was definitely a rough phase. Nearly everything went wrong. If Saffron had missed the Troubadour, then one could say that everything DID go wrong. But, well, sometimes the RNG shows some mercy. Well there's also Meredith's battle with the fighter which was the only one aside from Saffron that went well. And...well, this is going to be interesting, seeing Maya's reaction to Klaren going down.

(But of course, there is grey vs grey, black vs black moralities, grey vs black...) "What...is happening?" The Shadow Umbreon cried out as the Dimensional Anchor took hold. "Hmph. Trying to prevent our escape? Is that the best you can do? After all, you're still trapped there, all alone, unable to escape. As for us...well, the circumstances are a bit different, but the end result will be the same." The Master says while taking the two prisoners, entrancing them so they won't try to escape before moving over to a small room off to the side. "You two get to stay here for a bit while we go prepare a new ritual circle in here." The Umbreon said with an irritated tone. "As for your ultimatum...I'll think about it. We're not going anywhere either way, so there's no need to rush" the Master's voice echoed within the new chamber where the otter was now trapped. (There's no need to rush this indeed.) K_H?
