  1. Magic Cards are Fatal Blow, Southern Element, and a Mountain card. why these? i do not know. the cards are in stacks. condition of cards is mostly good but there are some that will make you wonder what happened to the poor thing. i will tell you. in fourth grade we were playing cards in the middle of class and the teacher busted us and confiscated them. so my friends and i stuck our rarest cards in the bottom of our shoes to sneak them home instead of turning them in. among other things. ...anyway, it's way too many to take pictures of or list, and i'm really more interested in giving away the full collection instead of individual ones because that would turn into a lot of shipments ;;;;
  2. i was cleaning out my closet earlier and found a bag full of old TCG cards from multiple franchises from when I was much younger. I've held onto them for years, but realistically I'm never going to do anything with them. I'm sure I could sell some of them but frankly the time it would take me to manage that is worth more to me than the money I'd get from doing so. It also feels wrong to just throw them away though... so I'm hoping someone around here might be interested in taking them. I'm not asking any money in return, and I'll pay shipping as long as it's to the continental US. If multiple people want something, I'll default to whoever's willing to pay something for it, whoever is getting something else (so I can do fewer shipments) or just whoever asks first. (also obviously you need to be willing to disclose your address for me to ship to, but don't worry, I won't stalk you too much.) Here's what I'm looking to get rid of: Pokemon TCG Collection A lot of my cards were stolen when I was younger, but I still have several hundred left. They range from 1st gen up to 3rd gen. Most of them are in the older sets. Also includes an old rule book, playing mat, some damage tokens, a hearty stack of non-TCG promotional Pokemon Cards (I think they were given out as bonuses in card packs or around the movies??), and three 5th-gen starter fabric stickers (stickiness is unadulterated) YuGiOh Cards Just a dozen or so. I used to have a tonne of these and I'm not remotely sure happened to the rest... oh well. Harry Potter TCG Might only be the starter deck + a little. Neopets TCG Starter deck + one or two packs Yu Yu Hakusho TCG I legit don't know why I have these. I haven't even watched that show. Looks like a couple booster packs' worth? Magic: The Gathering three. i have three magic cards. ive never bought any of them. i dont know why i have them. i also don't want to ship just three cards though so I'd rather throw these in in with something else Post here if you're interested and which you're interested in. I'll PM you for details sometime next week (this week is very busy for me) when it's set in stone.
  3. one very busy week later don't remember. but it probably had to do with Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald queues based off of 3rd gen games in our league, and then i heard some random talk about an extra amethyst around here or something so i threw it in there or whatever.it also legit could have been random though cuz i think the favicon ( this thing: http://prnt.sc/cfz3n4 ) was made before the league reached the point that it had lines?? so idk. maybe i just justified it later. or maybe i changed that later? shoot, some other people might actually know better than me at this point. yes. can i remember them? ........maybe.sabrina. sanary. alice. willow. painter. fantasia. luna. nona. angel. crystal. shigure. aisha.that's just what's coming to mind immediately. luna and alice aside, my bias towards a couple of those might show when they appear notably in reborn... but, there's only like three people who -might- still remember which and why. yes. in fact it is the only light in my room (aside from blacklights). and i usually point it right against the wall so even when the light is on it stays nice and cozy-dark in here. yes. and it is half-broken so it clicks on every rotation if i have it set higher than low and it is very annoying. it might fall out soon tbh but that wouldn't be anything new. i have never used them, but the concept is neat people hang dry clothing still? tower apples. specifically pink lady apples. like, fruity alcoholic drinks tend to be pretty cool looking?? but i dont drink so lol aquairum... less bugs there. nope. i'm not opposed, but it's not a particular interest. no. in fact, i'm taking recommendations on if anyone knows a good organic toothpaste that doesn't taste like death. because wow i really hate the taste of my current brand but i dont want to do non-organic. i take it when offered, not usually otherwise. spry brand, green tea flavor. liquid i guess? what not usually. i have a couple hats i like but they conflict with my unhealthy obsession with animal ear jackets (or headphones) ...um, still aquarium! i really like those mini-size lolita hats ii dont think it makes me feel like anything... cardboard's pretty tame. closet. although i have dressers, i do not have the luxury of using them. not particularly. idfk probably are you doing this on purpose? why are you doing this? whenever the heccka they want, they can make their own life choices i definitely had bed times. and i definitely rebelled.in elementary school, starting when i was like six, i would go to sleep at the required time, but then get up at like 3a so i could play games or watch tv before school. in middle school, i was grounded a lot so i just stayed up and waited for my mom to go to sleep before playing whatever i was grounded from. in high school i became interested in polyphasic sleeping and played around with it so much i destroyed my sleep schedule permanently my mom just gave up at that point. no one must know of our relationship.. they're both obsolete but pocket watches have class unlike wristies. like a ... literal bookmark? i don't tend to use those. yes i usually enjoy norse mythology, but i've been really interested in shinto stuff lately. my favorite mythological creature is definitely the kitsune though. however, I don't really have a specific favorite god or kami. or rather, what were these forums called before they were reborn? -sigh- poke-place. it was a throwaway name that sort of just happened, since it was originally only like 10 people and never expected to go beyond that. when 4th gen came out with wifi battling and trading, i was on a lot of different forums with various people who played, so i made a small subforum on my old site to bring my friends together so we could do stuff the first two episodes were just winged because i figured id get bored of the project and drop it in like a month (kinda sounds like the start of the site itself tbh..). halfway through the third episode i realized that i should probably figure out where the story is going so i drafted an outline straight through to the end. i've continually revised that outline. memories... perspective... nothing in particular but that sort of thing. i think it's really nice when people can walk away from the game feeling more confident about their ability after clearing it, or learn to try different things instead of just depending on numbers advantages, or even just learning that hey emolga is actually really good, or whatever.in terms of the story, i don't have a hope for that. i am totally a fan of plots with consistent themes and purposes, but reborn's is literally just a telling of the league's stories. i encourage players to cling to whatever meaning they find bubbles up from that, because lord knows it was a very important mess that has affected many people. negs. MP is an RPG Maker site, not a pokemon site. i started the league there during the time that these forums were temporarily not existing, and then moved them here. im still a kid at heart. so absolutely.
  4. wolf and getting bloody memed on by a goddamn fish..
  5. wolf and unflinching willingness to jump off a building because cats
  6. good. cry. if it's that despair-inducing, it's all the more likely to happen.
  7. He had to kill the girl he liked. So why should those two be allowed to have their romance? Kirigiri would've noticed if they were comatose, cuz they'd still have a pulse.
  8. casual work selfie because my hair is a mess but i still love it and i have had way too much fun tonight.. as one might assume from a nearby post.
  9. It's been destroyed and rebuilt several times. The most recent incarnation is far from the first one, but it might have only taken that name more recently in its history. Whatever it was called before that, probably no one remembers anymore.
  10. Hey, so, the discourse is fine and all if you're into that, but just because I'm concerned about end-game difficulty, doesn't mean y'all need to be. I'll figure it out. Or we will, since it depends on feedback from you all (though I have to take into account that players here are both more used to the game and spend more time on it than other players). I may not get it correct right away, but I'll get it right eventually. That said I find the idea of the EXP reduction pretty acceptable. It'll be invisible to most players, game levels will be sunken accordingly, and it'll let team development carry through more of the storyline. However, it'll make things awkward for existing save files. Worth? Idk, we'll see if it comes to it. I'm pretty happy X/Y opened the door for this (in the main story at least). But even if it happens, you might not like the circumstances... I currently don't intend to add IV boosting. It's the only thing left that keeps Pokemon unique from each other, and I don't think it matters -that- much anyway except to the diehards... which is about as I'd want it, probably. There's some Rock Climb, but not too much. Amount of exploration probably well-exceeds E14 though, if you count the city. -- I have some fun stuff for you today. I'm continuing on quests, and predictably, it's slow. There was a % jump a few days ago because I'd miscalculated, but with one exception every quest I do is valued at 2% of the sidequest bar. The quest I worked on today/yesterday probably took me about 11 hours in total. Maybe more. However. I've started doing the most time-consuming ones first. So hopefully these 2%s pick up in speed. That said, I have had a lot of fun with the NPCs in this quest. Probably more fun than I should be allowed to have. And I think it'll show. unrelated(?): Finally... I might regret this. And I 120% reserve the right to axe it later. But until then. Tomorrow I'll be starting on the final Gang sidequest. Technically, the last one was supposed to be the final one, but then, so was the one before that. So you know, whatever. Then I'll be gone for most of the weekend, family is visiting next week, and I work a full week straight after that, so progress will be stifled because of life for a while, lol rip.
  11. inb4 burn jokes but yeah! well most of the time i cba to put effort into cooking if it's just for myself so i take a lot of shortcuts or forget about it. but i enjoy putting more effort into both the food and the presentation when i'm cooking for others.unless it's meat. then i just suffer through it. but i'll do it. there's.... such a thing as an electric grill??? woah...
  12. what, like, originally? gosh. i remember i first heard about it in 2002 and was super hyped, but I wasn't able to play it until I got Nyu's PS2 which must've been 2008. i basically played that game religiously in order to systematically disregard all of the bad things that were going on in my life, oops. she is Ryouko Otonashi from Dangan Ronpa. I'm hoping she makes an appearance in DR3! but I'm not holding my breath. either way is fine... either I get her, or I get the taste of sweet despair...i dont know the specific artist of this avatar though, i just clipped it from a youtube video lol not generally. in fact i'm more likely to like something covered out of that genre into a different one. metal is just.. too much for me, and rock is just ... too much distortion guitar. curiosity doesn't have to be the same as an unhealthy obsession! though i do feel bad because i didn't want to eclipse other people. go give some other AMA'ers some love!! usually just one or two
  13. fuck you for this one tbh fuck you for this one too tbh. fuck you for this one three tbh. [12:24:29 AM] Ageusic Guardian: what do I think of the community? [12:25:29 AM] Ageusic Guardian: it is a vehicle of hate and malice on the surface I have to sift and fight through and corral kids around in, with a few people that say hi to me every time I log in, but even these people are interactions I basically forced on them, it's like stockholm that they still talk to me. [12:25:38 AM] Ageusic Guardian: it's a lot of work. [12:26:11 AM] Ageusic Guardian: it's tiresome, oft thankless effort as I work and work on trying to figure out how to best make this policy change or how am I supposed to teach these auth to talk to the members like regular people and on and on [12:26:38 AM] Ageusic Guardian: it's tiresome. [12:27:03 AM] Ageusic Guardian: it used to be a lot more fun but it feels like it's ground into tedium. [12:27:17 AM] Ageusic Guardian: everyone's a sarcastic memer that's too cool for rules [12:27:46 AM] Ageusic Guardian: everyone's so keen to point the other finger instead of turning the other cheek [12:27:55 AM] Ageusic Guardian: yeah but THIS PERSON is doing BAD THINGS TOO [12:28:11 AM] Ageusic Guardian: and it's YOUR FAULT [12:28:33 AM] Ageusic Guardian: bad auth bad auth bad auth I hate hearing that especially when it gets the "except dan" clause because it still reflects on me poorly [12:29:09 AM] Ageusic Guardian: much of the conversations I have with most of the server people begin and end at hello unless there's a problem [12:29:33 AM] Ageusic Guardian: need need need [12:29:36 AM] Ageusic Guardian: people that sound like my mother [12:29:42 AM] Ageusic Guardian: she doesn't say "please pass the ketchup" [12:29:47 AM] Ageusic Guardian: she tells us "I need ketchup" [12:30:00 AM] Ageusic Guardian: so we have to go get it, naturally. [12:30:37 AM] Ageusic Guardian: frustration with everything that I have to continue to do everything as I was as more and more people stop talking to me altogether. [12:30:49 AM] Ageusic Guardian: trudging along. [12:31:36 AM] Ageusic Guardian: what would it take for me to be more active again? [12:31:45 AM] Ageusic Guardian: you'd need to make me care again [12:31:51 AM] Ageusic Guardian: or feel as if others did. [12:32:04 AM] Ageusic Guardian: why did I sort of go poof for awhile? [12:32:32 AM] Ageusic Guardian: because taylor said she'd give me a back massage and then morgan and co talked about a michigan meetup [12:32:46 AM] Ageusic Guardian: I told taylor I had a car, I could just say fuck it and go, right [12:33:04 AM] Ageusic Guardian: and then I made up some excuse to leave and drafted some short plans and just [12:33:04 AM] Ageusic Guardian: went. [12:33:20 AM] Ageusic Guardian: just because I could. [12:33:44 AM] Ageusic Guardian: and -even then- here I am in Clyde, Ohio where I'm getting PMs from people telling me there's some fuckhead or another on the server. [12:34:08 AM] Ageusic Guardian: I'm going god knows how fast on the highway to the nearest rest stop which is thankfully nearby and I answer whatever questions people are asking and then try to move along [12:34:48 AM] Ageusic Guardian: come back home and fight with dad so I don't turn on my computer for awhile and am a mess [12:35:15 AM] Ageusic Guardian: but I'm on mobile, surely I could go onto the server, right [12:35:22 AM] Ageusic Guardian: eh mobile sucks [12:35:32 AM] Ageusic Guardian: and further I just .... couldn't muster desire to. [12:37:06 AM] Ageusic Guardian: problem after problem after problem, being the person who sought out others to help them with their problems and being summoned just to deal with problems and having people who are entirely defined by their problems [12:37:22 AM] Ageusic Guardian: the stress, the frustration, it's a lot to put up with day after day [12:37:39 AM] Ageusic Guardian: at some point I hit a point where it was a lot to deal with [12:37:55 AM] Ageusic Guardian: and maybe if my experience was going to continue being like that, then I didn't want to keep dutifully logging in day after day. [12:38:02 AM] Ageusic Guardian: I don't hate reborn. [12:38:08 AM] Ageusic Guardian: I just don't want to experience it like this. [12:38:58 AM] Ageusic Guardian: I poofed for awhile because on top of all of the things going on in my life, there were days where I didn't really want to come back [12:39:03 AM] Ageusic Guardian: but in truth I never really left. [12:39:27 AM] Ageusic Guardian: wasn't really a "break" if I keep trying to solve problems even when I'm out and about doing whatever else. [12:39:49 AM] Ageusic Guardian: and the people had been so integrated in my life I wonder if its even possible for me to take a "break" from reborn anymore. [12:40:09 AM] Ageusic Guardian: I don't think it works like that. [12:16:25 AM] Ageusic Guardian: you know most of the rest but it's just me investing time and now they wouldn't give me the time of day unless they were pressured or coerced or I had to pull it out of them [12:17:29 AM] Ageusic Guardian: I'm not trying to say no one here is worthy of my friendship or some noise [12:18:11 AM] Ageusic Guardian: I'm trying not to say something like "I guess I'm just not important enough" [12:19:30 AM] Ageusic Guardian: I don't really know how else to quantify it [12:19:34 AM] Ageusic Guardian: I know some of them are like... [12:19:44 AM] Ageusic Guardian: where I fixed some major problem and they were able to move on with life [12:19:45 AM] Ageusic Guardian: I guess
  14. ...Well I can't say I approve of the phrasing. And that video is uhhh.... I don't think I understand the context or point, and she sounds hella annoying there so maybe no thanks...
  15. DAMMIT. DR0 spoilers below: when does mikan fall in love with junko, dammit >~< id totally use mikan as a hug-pillow.......
  16. pls no I'm having to cut back on trainer battles majorly as is, but I don't have a feel for where the EXP curve is at for these end-game levels. If it hella slows down I might be fine. Idk. We'll see. Y'all can trust me but it might be tight, and I -am- worried end-game difficulty will suffer as a result (if it isn't already). -- with ikaru's help again, we finished the tanzan lake underwater area today. that shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. also one other semi-significant sidequest. my criteria for "semi-significant" is highlyy subjective btw. despite the status thread (which takes all sidequest areas into account,) right now, city sidequests are at about 25%. on an entirely unrelated note, the hydreigon line will not be officially available this episode, but players who got stuck due to a certain glitch several episodes ago will be able to attain it early. i can't make apologies like that for all scenarios, but it happens to work out here.
  17. i hope so. i really sympathize with haruhi suzumiya. if any of you are aliens, time-travelers, or espers, hit me up! but none of that chuunibyou crap! i only want the real deal! darling, darling... shh, i'm looking out for you here. it's to your advantage if they don't suspect you for as long as possible. for the same reason that all tsun's are; they can't pull themselves out of their ego to actually acknowledge human connections, but they still wanna be cute and have them. uhhh maybe you're confusing me with someone else here because i have never seen nisekoi o-o i can't even tell who the person on the bottom is... but to me this looks like some kind of between-chapter recap, where she just destroyed someone else who was going to recap the story and was like 'nah i got this'. in the past, it was all i did, so 19 wouldnt have been too far off. i also tried keeping a schedule for a while but that didn't really work. both of those things did more harm than good. so lately it's sporadic based on my mood. somedays i still don't do anything else. other days i'm just like 'yaaaaah, no.' i've found going about it that way is more productive for me anyway since working on it constantly burned me out and made progress slow... among other issues.
  18. Every incense has been added for E16 (almost always earlier in the game-- not just E16 content) so soon!
  19. as a proud owner of a monokuma jacket to wear casually myself, i totally agree. that said, edit: these caps are my gift to you all. as they are god's gift to us.
  20. I think I'm going to do two alphas this time, so maybe that'll take longer. One doesn't seem to be enough. Maybe especially not for this episode. how dare you. get out of my community right this instant. just kidding, please don't. shit happens. and frankly development would be a lot longer if i double-triple checked-tested everything so I just kinda do my best as I go and anything else can be swept up later. I count on y'all for that. Mud-slap hasn't been done yet. That was actually our Tackle animation, which the game uses by default for anything that doesn't have one. Good points. This was originally written as a community game so I was trying to follow what had happened in the community. I've long since shrugged off those restraints. However, as close to the end as we are with everything having been written out from the start, it's a bit problematic to just start rewriting things now. There are a few things I change here and there if I see a better opportunity of course-- and that may yet happen. It also may not. Who knows? Incidentally, aren't there some ends that might be worse than death? Or maybe that depends on the character... Yeah, it's basically fanfiction of what happened, you got me. For the record, Blake wasn't as much of a butt in the league as he is in-game, I sort of hyper exaggerated that to make him an antagonist. He sort of was just like a mild jerk for amusement, rather than a legitimate asshole like Fern And you certainly weren't the only one who Cain actively made question that... stupid.. cybering with challengers mid-battle. im glad his ass got grounded : I --- sidequests are tough to cut into. but I did the GUM room today. delicious.
  21. Impressively, I have not played a single one of those :c I have played D&D several times, however I have never particularly enjoyed it. Granted, two of those times was just me with a like, 10? year old kid as the DM. I was babysitting him and he was teaching me how to play so I imagine that's not the best scenario.The other time was Pathfinder with a group of friends which was okay but it was sort of obtrusive, like we kept trying to just get through it or whatever. I think we would have had more fun doing other things. The Hobbit/Lord of the Rings. My father read me The Hobbit when I was 5-6ish, and then afterwards, I fell asleep every night to a narrated version of it on vinyl. Violin is my favorite instrument, so let's go with that. Runners-up are Cello because it's always felt the most natural to me, and Piano because that's actually what I play most often. Uh well I've grown up well above sea level... I can't imagine what kind of place is below sea level but not underwater but it sounds cool so let's go with that. Just funnels. I was like eight and super scared. There's a what? No, probably not. No, not really. But I do have some fond memories of driving up a 14'er here with my father at sunset one day. It was snowing, and there were lunar moths everywhere, so it was just sunbeams through a flurry of white. Really really pretty. Winter. What's even like about summer. Too hot, no snow... yuck. Rain. Frequently. Possibly daily. With the right people only. Unfortunately, I've had a lack of those. But I recongize they can still be cool places. "Lollipop" is really fun to type. go ahead. try it. no one's goona know. it's cool, right? here's some more: million, popplio, opinion, onion, minion. go nuts. i find they're good stress relief. Although I am not intimately familiar with it, I think American just needs to get on the same page as everyone else. Temperatures too. Chop-chop. By memory? No. I could probably figure it out if I saw it again. But I do not wish to. In fact, I wish not to. Hearts Not really, but Queen of Hearts has some strong thematic ties I can appreciate I was not previously aware of Marble Hornets or that abbreviation, but I think stuff like that was really cool. Recently a friend visited from out of state and she was telling me how there was a sort of murder-mystery game running large scale throughout her series where players had to piece together clues, talk to actors, etc, all in real time. Then at the end, a vote decided the fate of the city. I'd totally love to be able to do something like that. Not that I remember. Not particularly a 'favorite' but willow trees are neat if nothing else. Roses. Especially when they're uncommon colors. uggggh, this one's a can of worms. speaking about the ones around here anyway: firstly, most of how i feel about them is "why." but that's not so much "why do they exist," as it is "why would anyone presume that other people want to ask them enough questions to justify a topic for it" being that we're 9? pages into this one there is some degree of irony-- or maybe even hypocrisy-- there. but opening this topic i actually thought people wouldn't have much to ask me if not about reborn. rest assured i have been thoroughly proven wrong. this also probably sounds rather cynical. it's not my intention to imply that anyone "shouldnt" make these things. rather, being that that's my first thought, it baffles me that they do anyway. as i believe i said in the first post, i mostly made this topic because i felt like i shouldn't, and i 'should' myself into or out of things far too often. so it's kinda like those question lists on facebook, or tumblr or wherever. someone's like "ask me things!" or just fills one out of their own volition despite not being tagged. that's fine-- but because i've always felt like that's something i shouldn't do, and therefore i assume others feel like that, and therefore it impresses me that others approach it regardless.this probably sounds super back-handed... and that's fine. but really not what i'm going for. Overcast, please thanks. I don't like the sky. It's too big and empty. Mmmnope. I don't think they live around here. Maybe at a zoo? but idr lol Fireplace. We actually have a fire pit in our backyard so my mom frequently has bonfires back there with her friends. It's too hot to even get close to though so it's like, whatever. Yep. Double yep. Biking. When I was younger, I really wanted to. I used to watch a lot of gameshows when I could cuz we didn't have cable and then at our vacation house there was a Gameshow Network with some pretty wacky ones. Anyway, I'm sort of apathetic to it by now.Ninja Warrior in particular always looks super fun-- though I probably stood a better chance when I was younger, rip. Not particularly, but I'm sure some are okay. Like I enjoyed Braveheart. But it's not like I seek them out or anything. I don't think I've seen them. At least to the Moon or Mars? yeah, probably Not unless I had a good reason to. I kinda like this place. I have no clue what that is but it sounds very silly. Nope. Hey, if you're taking the time to ask, it's the least I can do. So it's nothing. ^~^
  22. To elaborate, the problem with doing that is that MP3 is a file format that holds sound, whereas midi is a file format that holds data that can be read as sound. It's like, trying to convert something you see in a picture, into a real life 3d format. It's fundamentally not going to work. That said RMXP is capable of handling mp3 or midi files, so if you're making your own music then either format will be totally fine. There's no need to convert.
  23. they might now. but it's no one's job to police my time except mine, and there's no guarantee that whatever i'd otherwise be doing would involve reborn at all. I don't mind having a reason to interact with the community more. maelstrom probably tbh
