I really prefer the Links of LttP and LoZ to any others. But, the first one that comes to my mind is probably adult OoT Link.

I'm really bad at fighting games. Really really really really bad. But if I had to pick a "real" fighting game to play, it'd probably be Soul Calibur 2.

Raphael is cheap. But I kinda like playing him, because I actually spent ~10 years as a sabre fencer. So I personally have some familiarity with his moveset. I also like playing him because he's cheap and it's the only way I can ever win anything.

SC2 is also the first time I ever saw a character using Tonfa, which are a pretty neat weapon.

The oft-cited reasoning is that they made link Blonde to make him attractive, and thus draw in lady gamers. Although I suspect that this is a case of putting the cart before the horse. I don't think Nintendo intentionally targeted the female libido. But, having known many many (many) women whose first crush was adult Link in OoT, I can see why a lot of folks assume the brown>blonde switch was targeted at the straight ladies.

Since my girlfriend is gone for a few days I should clean the house.

It's also been way too long since I've done any writing. These past few weeks have been tumultuous, and I'm not getting as much work done as I ought to.

Mario RPG would have been nice. I've attempted it a few times as an adult and find it a little simplistic and boring, which is kind of a bummer. I'm glad I played so many of the Final Fantasy games when I was younger, because I don't think I could sit through them the first time as an adult.

You don't like Awesome Face?

But how?

It's so Awesome!

^Is sadly correct. I really don't play that many vidja anymore.

V Has a brother, but no sisters?

I'd be interested to hear your (and anyone elses) thoughts! It's a very casual recording, mostly done as an experiment with the format. Once we piece together a real "Episode 1," it should be a little more focused and interesting.

We'll also need to find a better means of distribution than YouTube.

Wednesday is a public holiday in Aussieland? Why?

I'm sure it won't be the only CAH game we plan. If you can't attend, there's always the next one. =D

Bots are the worst. Some of my old forums used to get bombarded with porn. Just threads with 20 posts, and each post had 50 porn thumbnails or something.

Fortunately, that's not hard to really define. Bots and advertisements are bad and can be nuked without serious consideration. It's the spammy posts of legitimate members that we have to treat with a lighter touch.

Was in one of my rare Metal moods this morning.

Truth. I'd rather work out in front of strangers than do it in front of my girlfriend.

You're right, I'd forgotten that you and I had joined at pretty much the same time.

Gannondorf Moose is the guy who said "And this I quote." I don't know why I remember that, but I do. Looking back, there's a good chance he was trolling us. He just refused to use the proper quote function, not matter how many times it was explained. I seem to recall he was pretty over-the-top superior as well. He would refer to people who disagreed with him with such utter contempt and dismissal. Nobody liked that guy.

There was also a member called Linker I think, who kept getting banned, but kept making new accounts. At some point he prompted me to make this:

And help me out here. Dark the 7th had two buddies on the forum. Both women. One was Sammi, and the other was...? I can't recall for the life of me. The only thing I remember is that she was bisexual, talked about being distracted by her own body, and said that she wore diapers when she was on her period. It's bugging the hell outta me that I can't remember her name.

Oh, and remember that Aerith cosplayer? I think she just went by Aeris on the boards or something. She ended up getting really famous I think. Has been on TV a few times, well known as a cosplayer, stuff like that.

There was Quistis, the woman from Essex, one of the few people who really migrated to TSR from FFR. I'm afraid I don't remember much about her, except that I made an ass of myself by moralizing about sex to her once.

Also, Darkmoon! (BUTTMON) She was from Phoenix AZ, and she and I actually talked a lot. I've always been kinda sad that she dropped off the grid entirely.

You know, as fond as my memories of the TSR gang are, I was a terrible person back then.

B'daw, I appreciate that. It's true I'm in a bad situation right now, but I've been in much much much worse situations in my life, and I've got a pretty good safety net set up for myself if shit hits the fan.

I need to find a job, no doubt about it. But I've spent enough time in the grownup business world that when I actually do get a job, I know exactly what it takes to kick ass at it. I might be grumpy for a little while as I live a life without booze or pizza, but in the end I'll land on my feet.

I just got this in the mail. Hopefully it'll go a long way towards making my job search easier:

You were following Ashleigh around for months or years before I turned up, Kilovh. You've gotta have some old screenshots or something stashed away.

4pm PST.

Are you CST or EST?

Quote from Sardonic Pickle

Brisbane. Which doesn't adhere to Daylight savings. If you guys have that.

We do have it. I sure wish we didn't, though. I think we're good until October or something, though.

Quote from Kaynil

It is probably easier just to move 2 or 3 hours behind or something.

LS 4 or 5pm
TIO 7 or 8 pm
SP & Kay 10 or 11 am

I can dig that. Tuesday for the US, Wednesday for Australia. We'll meet here. =D

I think we need to talk to the Awesome face about his drug problem.
