  1. Greetings delicious friend Come in, we don't bite, much We are definitely not a vampires, now where would you get that idea? Though many on here do hate sunlight, 'tis merely a coincidence though So here's a riddle for our honoured guest. What is the most intricate thing in this world? Is it perhaps the needle that you lost in the desert? Or is it perhaps the crow's feather that you lost in the darkness of the night? No, for in truth, the most intricate thing in the world is: Welcome to the forums, many funs are to be had here, if you know where to look.
  2. I guess this is true for a lot of people on here. Outside of the more prominent personages on here, I don't in fact know much about the vast majority of people on here... I applaud you and your coding skills, and your audacity for creating your own Pokémon "engine", for Pokémon Carousel when using the Essentials mod for RPG Maker would have been easier.
  3. Yeah, yeah, I know gushing about people isn't normally done on here, but this is a sure-fire way too brighten people's days. Some days, some people just need it. Look at the person's post above, their signature, previous posts etc. and try and find a legitimate compliment, not something like "your avatar is cool", but something about their person. readygo
  4. The second house on the right in Sheridan Village. Go visit Dr. Jenkel in Gearan City and use his machine to relive the Goldenwood incident, the reward is a Thunderstone.
  5. Between this thread dying and having it gain 15 new entries every 24 hours for the rest of the year, what would you prefer? - What are your thoughts on Botan (The boar from my signature) - Why did you dislike Serial Experiments Lain and Spice and Wolf? - What do you think about my new avatar? - What would you do were Nintendo to send you a cease and desist letter asking you to halt development of Reborn and take any existing version of the game down? Edit: Wow... This AMA just got REIGNITED... Can you make a haiku about this thread's rebirth?
  6. The earliest point you can get it is by completing the "Hidden Library" request in Sheridan Village. If you've already arrived to Terajuma Shore and can't get back to the mainland for a while, there is also one a hidden one on the one of the small islands in the place where you arrive.
  7. Pokemon Light Platinum isn't per say a bad game, though it is definitely inferior to games like Reborn and Rejuvenation. Its an excellent example of how not to make a Pokémon fan-game and how much the genre has evolved. The story and gameplay is incredibly formulaic following the same pattern throughout the whole game, it is poorly balanced with a way too easy difficulty and contains too many characters who only show up once and become irrelevant throughout the rest of the game. All in all, it was once a great game but has now become an artifact due to the standard set by newer Pokémon fangames. Though really, its not a "bad game" in any sense of the word, merely inferior to actually good fan-games.
  8. Burn this heretic on the stake, his love of dubs could be contagious.
  9. - What is your favorite Higurashi character anime? And why is Higurashi? - What's with the name? - Dost thou acknowledge this one as one of esteemed character?
  10. Who are you? And why haven't I seen you on these forums... Like... Ever?
  11. I just marathoned Katanagatari over the last two days. Great stuff. I've become quite a Nisio Isin fan lately...
  12. How do i get a Phantump? I've tried looking the Whispy Ruins behind the waterfall in Goldenleaf at night but the door with the "4" on it is closed. Am I doing something wrong? I'm at the point where I have to battle Narcissa.
  13. Questionable? Its not like a council decided for it to go down in tiers, its all based on usage and Shaymin was simply never used. It can probably spice up the RU meta for a while until it starts seeing more use and thus returns to UU.
  14. I don't believe it to be an exaggeration when i say that video-games are a big part of the lives of the majority of members of this community. It is therefore not strange that video-games have impacted each and every one of us and our lives in various ways. A mere example would be how Pokémon has brought this whole community together. Video-games can impact people through evoking feelings like brought joy, entertainment, hope or even provide things such as insight, motivation or a purpose in life. Sorry if that sounded corny or pretentious, thought I really do believe video-games to be able to achieve this, and I can say that with much certainty because they have done so for me. Gaming and video-games have been a lifelong hobby for me, and various games have impacted me and my way of thinking in many different ways. The game that has affected my life the most would be Pokémon, more specifically, Pokémon Sapphire. At an early age my parents moved from my country of birth into the country I live in now. In truth it was a frightening and confusing time, leaving your whole life behind you and everyone you know to move to a whole new environment where you didn't know anyone, nor could speak the language. At the I didn't know anyone, and the language barrier between me and others was difficult to overcome. Though at the time my school environments, was heavily into Pokémon. I therefore asked my parents whether they'd buy me and Gameboy, and after some convincing they acquiesced to my request. And once I got myself a Gameboy the game pretty much took over my life for the better part of three whole years. If anyone has seen the recent Pokémon Sun and Moon commercial with the Japanese kid emigrating to Hawaii and bonding with others over Pokémon, that's pretty much my story. I've never been particularly sociable, or good at making friends throughout my whole life. Though through joining that Pokémon community at my school I got many new friends, a few of which have stuck with me until the present day. I remember fondly the memories of battling, trading with others. Even things such as solving braille codes, and even brute forcing solutions to unlocking the chambers of the Legendary Titans. It all so much fun. Speaking with others, spreading rumors, discussing the games and the TV-Shows, all of this was facilitated and started by acquiring one small blue cartridge. At a time where I needed friends and stability, Pokémon provided me with a crucible through which I could bond with others. For that I will always be thankful to the series. Pokémon has and continues to have a profound impact on my life... It isn't an exaggeration to say that the moment that has defined my life and has led me to where I am today is Pokémon. If at some point in the future I go on and do great things, and some random scientist invents a time-machine and decides to change my path through life, he'd probably go back and prevent me from starting to play Pokémon, and if he does, he'll succeed in his mission. For guiding me to the path in life I have taken to reach the place I am at today, for that I am eternally grateful to Pokémon Sapphire- I'm sure my story isn't unique, and that we all have a story about that one special game that has had a profound effect on our lives life, Pokémon sapphire is merely mine. If you want to, you can share your story too ~ I'm sure we all have wonderful stories that we can share with one another.
  15. Riddles you say? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Sure, if you say so. Three gods A, B, and C are called, in no particular order, True, False, and Random. True always speaks truly, False always speaks falsely, but whether Random speaks truly or falsely is a completely random matter. Your task is to determine the identities of A, B, and C by asking three yes-no questions; each question must be put to exactly one god. The gods understand English, but will answer all questions in their own language, in which the words for yes and no are da and ja, in some order. You do not know which word means which.
  16. - What is the most huggable Pokémon? And why is it Zorua? - If you were to murder someone, how would your murder weapon be? - What is the story of your life, in six words! - What is the most expensive food/dish you've eaten? - Do you consider yourself eccentric? - What song would play at your funeral? - Favorite quote? - What random hidden talents do you have? - What is the proudest moment in your life? - Have you considered adding segments to Reborn where you play as other characters?
  17. What about plants? Isn't a brainless human more or less the same thing? - Which questions do you wish had been asked, but hasn't been asked yet?
  18. How exactly do you sign up for season 2?
  19. There aren't. Trying to save people based on utilitarian principles is absolutely illegal, by law every person has to be treated equal, and were someone to actually go through with what this scenario described they'd be charged with murder. Despite how fucked up this sounds, if you rephrase it as "would you sacrifice the minority to save the majority" most people would say no. It's really about how you phrase the idea of utilitarianism... Despite this I still like the concept.
  20. inb4 more ethical dillemas: - If you saw someone slowly and painfully being crushed by a rock in the wilderness and you knew you could in no way move the rock or save the person otherwise and the person asked you to end his life, would you do it? - Is it ethical to grow fully formed, brainless clones for harvesting organs? * Is it ethical to grow fully formed clones with developed brains for harvesting organs? - There is a button and if you push it there is a 60% chance all suffering on earth will instantly cease and we would live in a utopian world but there is a 40% chance everyone in earth will die painfully? Do you hit the button? - Would you rather kill 999,999 people by shooting them individually or 1,000,000 with a button press to drop bomb? - You are a medical doctor and 5 people around you are slowly dying from blood loss.You know that they all have matching blood types. Would you drain blood from one of them (killing the person) to save the other 4? * Furthermore, in case you do so, how would you chose the one to sacrifice?

And here's a bonus question in case you've watched The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya: - Is it ethical to decide let a being like Haruhi Suzumiya exist (like Kyon decided to do at the end of Disappearance). Since Haruhi is incredibly volatile, emotional and can potentially end all life as we know it. Was Kyon in the right when letting such a being continue to exist despite her being a danger to the whole world?
