Finally, one that works on my machine!

I about fell out of my chair when I saw Vrumugun and Zangalus in that flash movie.. I thought I was the only one who paid attention in Slayers: Next. @_@.

Now, if I could find some media with Filia and Xellos in it, I could die happy.

My excuse: I'm not an artist. Or anything creative for that matter. I'm a conscientious observer and appreciater of those whose motor skills and creative spark and dramatic flair exceeds my own. So, while I'll gladly give constructive criticism where asked, I'll rarely volunteer my own creative idea...

Hey.. despite all the Microsoft bashing, their software does have solid, relevant applications to a lot of things, and is relatively easy to use, even if they're just a bit too "user friendly", which tends to translate to "Let me do it, dammit". I'm sure you all know this, I'm just in one of those p...

It's my birthday! Whoo! On a more relevant note: Sorry I missed Sunday; stuff cropped up for me this week. I *should* theorhetically make next week, but, again, my schedule has infinite potential for change right now, up to the last second. I'm sorry about being so spotty, guys.. I was really hoping...

Mmh. His state of dress would depend on who he was with.. if he was predictably going to be with close friends all day, he'd probably be wearing nothing.. if he was going to be out in public, he'd either be wearing light, baggy clothing (to accomodate his fur), or somewhat clerical robes. Either way...

If you're a feminist, "Commitment" would satisfy all 4 conditions, as long as you apply 'Man' literally.

But, I doubt that's the answer.

Ah. It was like, a year or two ago, and it was a minor quest for myself at the time, so after I gave up, I completely forgot the name of it. Or, maybe they just stole the idea or something. @_@. *goes to dig up his old PSM magazines now*

You want Karathis Mk 1 or Mk 2? (His appearance will be changing shortly). Also, how clad do you want him, since he is naturally clothed. Gimme an IM some time, and we can discuss it. In other news, to the guys in the campaign: I'm sorry about being so hit or miss lately. My life's currently upheavi...

They released a more recent version of Gradius, I think it was. Anyways, it's the last in the line of that game, and they brought that boss back, new and improved. It's on PS2, but it's hard as all sin to find; I was looking for it when it came out, and I still haven't seen it in stores.

Most of it is BS, I think. For example, he used "Logarithmic" to refer to a surface. I can't think of a way to apply log to metal, I'm sorry. It was like listening to Geordi giving an engineering report in TNG, to me. "Sir, the technobabble is failing!" "Add 6 syllables, Ensign" (panel from some ear...

Well, you see, the gnomes are footballs that are all psycho, and have useless spell like abilities to make up for their lack of any useful stat adjustments or methods of dealing damage, and Dwarves are fat heavy footballs that have high Con and, mysteriously, make kick ASS wizards...

I personally thought New Hope was fine as a stand alone movie. But still, the example DOES work if you consider just the part of the movie before they got off of Tattooine as opposed to the whole film. You learn the basic personalities of nearly all of the main characters by that point, but you stil...

I agree with Cinni to a degree... I mean, how would you rate the first 30 minutes of Star Wars, A New Hope? It'd be bland and disjointed. I think part of the frustration that a lot of people had was that they saw a developing world, and were looking for more information, but the pacing of the update...

Sounds good, Jarylan.. Send logs of everything that happened to cyril613@hotmail.com.. It's on my profile, so I don't mind giving it out on the forums..

In all fairness, though, Xellos DOES kick ass. Why, do you ask.

Um. I assume you're referring to my "Steps out of the way" comment. Sorry about that, I was trying to prevent becoming included in the hilarious hijinxs that were sure to come from a post like that. Nothing against you guys, I love you all. Strictly platonically, is all.
