  1. The mysterious white-haired man - known apparently as Mr. E - went around the table, introducing the other successful members of Project Crimson. Natsumi made a point to keep track of all the names and faces as he went around, but gave a particular look of disdain when he joked about her having the foot mark. It wasn't until he introduced everyone that he explained their purpose for being here. Which he described as a slumber party. Take this seriously, would you? It was then that the other Signers began to introduce themselves personally. Starting with Shannon, who by her own account, was from Cradle City. She seemed confident that having the mark of the head meant that she was the head of the group. If she wanted to manage these people, then as far as Natsumi cared, she could bloody well have it. Kiyoko and Raijin followed, introducing themselves, or at least their dragons. The fourth to introduce herself spoke far more quietly, and didn't introduce herself so much as her dragon. Which explained the horrific serpentine creature coiled around her. What a ghastly dragon. "I like this guy!" a raspy, metallic voice cheered from behind her, as Natsumi's own duel spirit reared its ugly head. "He looks like a dragon with an appetite! I appreciate you, big guy." The creature in quesetion - a metallic worm, about the size of Natsumi herself, slid up to Hotaru and her dragon, seemingly eyeing the pair over. "At least try to behave yourself," Natsumi sighed under her breath, seeing no reason to stop her worm from running off to socialize with others. Better they had to put up with Scrap Worm than her. Getting up to her feet, the girl cleared her throat, reaching into her blazer pocket and pulling out a white card. "I'm Natsumi, from Hearthome City. My duel dragon is Scrap Dragon, and I possess the mark of the foot. There isn't any deeper meaning to find behind it."

    7/10 9/10. impressive! OP's suggestion. A wonderful track from a hidden gem of a game. 9/10
  3. whenever I feel like randomlocking again, so probably before the month is over. will probably make a new logo for it too if I feel especially inspired that day.
  4. "T-Tch...jeez that hurt. For your information...I'm not stupid. Just ended up forgetting where I was laying down is all. Plus no one else comes up this direction around this time...so never had to deal with that before." "You're just stupid, got it." That was quite the answer he'd given her. In the end though, it all just boiled down to not paying attention, right? Kyouko moved closer to the edge of the roof, looking through the chain-link fence down to the students below. There sure were a lot of them running around down there today. She was glad she was up here, and not down there. Just the thought of being caught in that big of a crowd made her a bit queasy. Kyouko sat down, looking at the boy whose head she'd hit with the door. "And... you're up here why exactly? Clubs are recruiting, so shouldn't you be looking for one or helping whoever you're with reel in new members?" As she fished around in her hoodie pocket, Kyouko added a quick "I'm not interested in joining whatever you're about to suggest, before you ask." Try as she may have to not think about today's upcoming duel, it wouldn't leave her mind. Would it be a big public thing with lots of spectators? What happened if she lost in front of all those people? She was starting to understand the kind of pressure the duel team members maybe felt when there was a tournament or sometehing. Good thing she didn't want to join them. That didn't mean she couldn't talk with any of its members though. Kyouko opened her impressively tiny contacts list, selecting the only other human being in the list besides herself. Maybe sending and receiving a few texts would help shake off these nerves. Looking down at the crowds again, one head in particular stood out to her. Or rather, one hat sitting atop a specific head, that she'd recognize anywhere. She's got a few people with her. New recruits probably. Hopefully I don't distract her too much texting her. To: Jun From: Kyouko Are those new recruits for your duel team? (Look up at the roof.)
  5. You asked this about Ganondorf on YCM and the answer is about the same. I can do some gimmicky shit better than you, but you understand how to actually play fighting games. Also because you actually still have Skullgirls installed maybe.
  6. Day 8, 8:00, Arena Points: 61 W/L Record: 3/3 From: Gavin To: Aurora Morning Aurora. Believe me, I felt the same way the last couple days myself. But yeah, given that Mauvache sent that message saying we're sort of free today, yeah, I'm not busy. Where are we needing to meet for this? Oh. That was fast. Aurora read over the message. He was available after all! I'm having breakfast right now, but shouldn't be long. At the front door, maybe? And then Aurora's phone beeped with yet another message. She was feeling pretty popular this morning! From: Angela To: Aurora Good morning! Really sorry for forgetting to schedule our meeting. Will you be free this afternoon? I don't think I'll be occupied all day. Just message me whenever, alright? I'll get in contact with her after my event battle. Man, Aurora would be pretty busy today, wouldn't she? That was fine. The more stuff she had to do in a day, the better. A little hard work never hurt anyone. As such, the cryomancer wasted no time downing her tasty breakfast, before getting up and heading out. She made sure to clean up after herself first, of course. What kind of lousy eater didn't do that? Aurora headed for the front door of the Arena. Today felt like a good day for getting stuff done, though part of it might have been that weird funk she'd been in lately.
  7. "Suda Hiroharu, the one and only!" "Nice to meet you!" "And we don't need to walk ya know, I can fly too! Although I guess you can hear better if we walk... well, ya let me know if anything else comes up." "Roger!" Hibiki continued to lead the way toward the mystery sound. As she got closer, she and eventually Suda would be able to hear that it was a child crying, though something about it sounded a bit off. For one, it sounded like it was coming from some cheap speaker from deep within a dark cave Hibiki's ears had led the pair to. For two, there were other voices in there. Students, it sounded like... no, just one student. Were they lost in there? Hibiki removed her sunglasses, tucking them into her pocket for now. "I'm going in there; wait out here for just a bit!" Hibiki started toward the cave, but just as she took her first steps... "-WORTH ANYTHING!" "Wahh!" Hibiki jumped in place, turning around to check that that dangerous girl wasn't nearby... no sign of her. Hibiki pointed in the direction her voice had come from. "Those dangerous girls are that way, so don't go over there. I'll just be a second!" Hibiki hurried deeper into the cave, letting out that inaudibly high-pitched sound again to map the place out. Oh yeah, there was definitely a student in here. She'd have to be careful. While the cave was dark, it didn't seem to be all that deep. In fact, it was only a few dozen steps in that she found herself at the source of the crying. It was some sort of doll. Hibiki picked it up, prompting it to stop crying. As she turned to leave though, she heard the voice of another student. "Got one~" "Eh?" Before she knew it, the other student lunged at her, just barely missing most of Hibiki but scratching clean across her wings. "Owowowowow!" She had to get out of here! But first, she had to slow this attacker down. And there was one way to do that. Hibiki took in as deep a breath as she could, before letting loose a deafening screech. Being that close to the source had to hurt! Suda would have definitely heard it too, and she wouldn't be surprised if the entire forest area heard her either. She could hear her assailant fall to the floor, probably gripping their ears as they let out a stream of profanities in Hibiki's direction. The bat girl hurried out of the cave, holding the doll up for Suda to see. Attached to its chest was a badge "Second badge, get! And um, sorry if I hurt your ears or something just now, but..." "Hold it right there!" From within the cave, not far behind Hibiki, another girl emerged, one hand clamped tightly over her ear. "Hand over those badges, and this will be a lot easier for both of us."
  8. So many. I didn't like the way some things were handled in the 7th and final episodes, which I won't go into detail about for the sake of spoilers. As for a second season, anything is fine if Saki is there.
  9. Location: Ferry Poké: 740 "Oh, hey there! Nice to meet you Kanon, I'm Jacklyn. Oh, and she's Cherry. Oh wait, are you guys also adventurers? That makes this even better! Right Ivan? Then it's even more a pleasure to meet you guys!" "Pleased to meet you, though calling us adventurers might be a bit generous..." Kanon cast a small smile to the pokemon belonging to these trainers. Verbal creatures or not, they were part of this conversation too, right? The ferry captain announced that it would be fifteen minutes before taking off, and that the voyage itself would take a few hours. Seemed like Kanon & pals would likely be sleeping in whatever town they landed in if that was the case. Which probably meant another night in some cramped room. Eugh. The idea of just heading out to the city limits and setting up camp there seemed pretty appealing. "We now have enough people to do a Battle Royal. This boat ride just got a bit more exciting." "Battle Royale?" Now that wasn't something Kanon was so familiar with. She knew that battles were mostly done between one trainer and another, but tag-team battles weren't unheard of either. But whatever Ivan was on about, it certainly was foreign to her. Must have been a regional thing from wherever he came from. Leaning over a bit closer to Oswald, Kanon whispered "What's a Battle Royale?"

    what sorts of color combinations would you suggest for different playstyles if someone was theoretically looking to potentially get back into the game?

    You're right, I don't judge based on videos. However, I do still rate videos in addition to the songs if people ask and I'm feeling up to it. I don't like doing it all that often because it means I can't do other things while I'm rating music, and the ability to multitask ise a big part of why I'm fine doing this thread to begin with. I think I'll rate this video too since you're so insistent. Song: 7/10 Video: 4/10 if I'm being quite bluntly honest 8/10 4/10 Should I just go rate the entire DA Games channel? 5/10. It's done in very much the same style as Instruments of Cyanide which you also posted, but it doesn't suit it imo. Feels forced into that style, I think. Also those high notes sounded awful. OP's suggestion. Get some popcorn; it's a long one. 8/10. I'd give bonus points since the guy that wrote the song also did the Clone Hero chart for it himself (as well as charting the previous Soulless songs and everything else he makes for Guitar/Clone Hero), but that's unrelated to the song itself.
  12. Fitting first question for a radio: Favorite genre of music?
  13. Another day. Deep beneath the cracked roads and dilapilated buildings of Hearthome City, a hidden laboratory - far too pristine to belong in this garbage fire of a city - sounded off with the ringing of an alarm clock. 5 o'clock in the morning, on the nose, just like every day before it. Natsumi shut the alarm off as soon as it started ringing. Ever since successfully manifesting her mark, the details on the next step forward had been kept a tight secret that she couldn't get to. What was the point of having this at all if she was going to just waste away in some hidden facility!? Natsumi had been up long before the alarm clock she'd set to wake her went off; she'd been getting restless lately. And, much like any other day, mere seconds after the alarm went off, the door to Natsumi's room opened up. This place wasn't exactly luxurious, but it was more than good enough for her. "Good morning, Natsumi," her handler greeted. "Up early again, I see?" "Yes. The experiment was a success, so what does KaibaCorp plan to actually do with us now?" "Ahh, today's your lucky day. You're going to find out. Come, it's time we got out of here and had you meet up with the others." "Finally," Natsumi sighed in relief, eager to get started with... whatever it was she was supposed to be doing. "This is the place?" Out of Hearthome and into Satellite. She wasn't sure if she was happy or sad to call this place a step up from home. What she was sure of, however, was that there was no way this was where the rest of Project Crimson would be meeting up. It was, of all things, an abandoned prison. "You must have made a wrong turn or something." "Nope, this is the place. You get going now. Wouldn't want to keep the others waiting, would we?" "...very well." With only a small amount of hesitation, Natsumi walked into the prison, making more of an effort to not default to her usual limp. She was pretty sure it wasn't working, judging by the look the white-haired boy gave her when she walked in, before confirming that she was Natsumi, bearer of the Foot mark, and promptly returning to his book. Not exactly a warm welcome, was it? Looking around, Natsumi spotted a table for ten. Quite a few more than she was expecting, to be honest. Natsumi had expected to have to work in a group of five, maybe six people. This project must have been a greater success than she'd imagined. The boy already sitting there - the only one that got here before her, as it turned out - looked like trouble. It would probably be in her best interest to associate with him as little as possible. Natsumi sat down at the seat furthest from him, and turned her attention to the door, sitting upright and waiting for the others to arrive. Hopefully they wouldn't keep her waiting for long.
  14. I saw you surrendering turn 1 probably because you bricked super-hard. Against me. I was gonna test out a dumb Blasting the Ruins OTK which after some playtesting oh my god it's awful.
  15. if you had to change from one animal to another, which one would you pick?
  16. I saw a Kingdom Xathers on YGOPro today, playing Mythical Beasts. Was that you?
  17. when you eat a froot by the foot (assuming they have those over there), do you gradually work your way through it and take your time, or do you just shove the entire thing in your mouth and down the whole thing in one bite? if they in fact don't have froot by the foot over there, do you eat ice cream sandwiches with part of the wrapper still on and remove more as you work your way down, or just take off the whole wrapper at once?
  18. so, who's the avatar? now that you're on a different site, will you continue to do the "one avi/sig set a month" thing?
  19. Those little announcement bannners that the mods use then they appear at the top of the site, I keep closing them but the old ones keep popping up every so often. Is this some sort of bug because the site is still new, or might it be something on my end, or what? I haven't seen any other threads asking about this (though I didn't look super-hard) so I feel like it might be a potential issue worth pointing out if I happen to be some sort of rare case.

  21. Location: Islesbury Town Poké: 740 "Ahoy there! You lasses, and lad, wanting a ride on the ferry? Just this way, just this way. Already got another group of three on board, you can see em there on deck. Seems they wanted to do some battling if that strikes your fancy." This guy looked familiar... wasn't he the guy that brought them to Korova to begin with? No, it had to be a different guy. That was an eerie resemblance though. Nomi, predictably enough, immediately asked the question of if there were any beds on the boat. There weren't, but there were couches. That seemed good enough for her. If she was able to sleep on the back of a Rhyhorn, there probably wasn't anywhere that girl couldn't sleep. A battle sounded nice, and it would let Kanon see just where she stood against trainers that weren't those Team Phoenix people. Kanon followed Oswald's lead, heading over to meet this other group of three. Except it was a group of two. One of them must have gone somewhere They looked like a pretty typical pair, though the guy among the group looked like he might have been bad news. From the looks of things, they'd also been battling lately. It was kind of weird to just butt in at this sort of time, right? "Howdy!" "Hi there." ...she'd done so without thinking. Was Oswald not going to introduce himself. Fine then. "Name's Kanon..." Actually, this was kind of awkward. Why did it feel awkward? Or was that just her?
  22. You can get one superpower absolutely free. But wait, it has to be a shitty power that does more harm than good and isn't really a day-saver so much as an inconvenience. What sort of power do you take?
