Heh, but if we do that, there wouldn't be much point in calling it "Let's count to Ten-Thousand!", right?

Sorry, couldn't help but notice.

Yes, 10,000 for me as well.

^ Yes, I suppose so. 10,000 would certainly be something.
As for the actual posts, we need roughly 500 more posts till 5,000 now. Wow. That count just continues to rise...!
What, you mean 10,000 posts instead?

Ask a mod to start a game? I highly doubt that.

...It just hit me... a MILLION??? O_O
I've heard rumors that they could be the new "Wire Frames"... The first game had the Polygons, Melee had Wire Frames.... now Brawl could have these guys, whom many have nicknamed "Mr. Purple". Heh.
As of 12:01am ET today (at least, for me it is "today"), Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows has been released.
Anyone else plan on buying it, or at least check out how the book ends?
Personally, I cannot WAIT to hear some spoilers...
Wow... Wind Temple, without a doubt. I can't tell you how many times I got lost there. And ended up... in the same spot I started from.
Avy: 9/10
I don't know... Maybe it's just me, but is that Wind Waker?
Sig: 8.5/10
Not bad. The style is certainly original in its own way. Just that there's only so much color to it.
There is life out there!! I know it!!
*ehem*
Seriously.
Being the universe is such a vast place (supposedly endless), why in the world would we seriously be the only things alive out here??? It really doesn't make any sense.
Think of it. All those galaxies, and no life?? What's the point? Really, now.
I don't want to get into too much in religion, but why would God just create us? It has been said in the Bible (if I'm correct) that he made man in His own image... but that doesn't mean he didn't make other things, that were NOT of his image (like dogs, cats, birds, etc.).
There's a very likely chance there's life out there... whether it be 6 foot tall martians presented in horror movies, or things as small as single-celled organisms just starting to morph into new life.
Wow! That's your first sig? I'm very impressed. Heh, my first sigs were made of nothing but cheap MS Paint jobs, rough cut-and-paste pictures, and sprites...
Amazing work for a first time. Keep it up!
ACK! You have me torn between Mario and Pikachu! @_@

However, if problems arise, don't make topics on it. Please contact us mods/admins, and we'll be sure to get to you ASAP.
I'll discuss this with the others. Next time, please don't make a topic... Contact one of us, or all of us for that matter. No one else needs to get into this. All right?

I'm not a big fan of Youtube videos (the laptop normally can't take such pressures and begins to slow terribly), so I was only able to watch Part 2... and I have to say, it definately had its parts.
I don't watch too much anime (even though I enjoy it), but whenever I did see one I recognized, I got a good chuckle or two.
This thing's almost like AniMix, except shorter... kind of.
EMO PWNED.
^ Very funny, Twistkill. I..... had nothing to do with it!! n_n
About 700 or so posts left till we hit 5000.
Anyone have any idea what we'll do then?? O_o

^ Well 18 at what I see now. lolAnyways, 6 more days of Summer School, so I'm not so sure to keep Steelia Mod or not, unless he loves to be a mod.
I'm actually starting to get the hang of it. At first, I wasn't very confident, but now that I've gotten used to it and had questions answered on what to do in certain situations, I feel pretty good about it.
But, it's your call.
and @Aronath: Thanks for that. Really appreciate it.
Oh yes, definately.
I wonder who the guy in the last picture is, though? Whenever I look at him, I can't help but feel an odd chill... Perhaps its his aura. Though he doesn't exactly look menacing, there's just something about his face, or even the eyes...
Could he be the actual creator of Master Hand and Crazy Hand??
Makes me wonder if Sakurai is going to have original characters in this game...
~~Hold the phone! After closer inspection...
...is there two more forming behind the first one, or is it just me??

For the record, I changed my MSN those who had me on their contacts list (sano2026@hotmail.com is new addy)Ah, Grats on whenever you reached 200 post Steelia; I miss to much when I'm doing other miscellaneous things.
Heh, thanks. But compared to others like Shrukan, 200 posts really isn't much at all! ^_^
((No problem. I was actually editing my post when you posted... Eh, I'll post it down here.))
"ONE...!!!!!"
There is no sign of the fighter anywhere... As a matter of fact, Akira never noticed the fighter come re-registration time.
There's no way he could make it now, wherever he is.
The announcer points up a finger, and slowly brings it down to a horizontal angle...
~"Zero!"
SMACK!
Akira is hit across the face with tremendous force. Those were always the worst of hits.
"Owwww!" Akira wailed, clutching his face and tears welling up in his eyes.
"That is what you get for disobeying me! I will not tolerate arrogance!" a man says, holding onto a sword over his shoulder and glaring at the toddler Akira.
"But... but Sensei," Akira begins, "I was trying to--"
"I DO NOT WANT TO HEAR THIS!" the Sensei screams, literally blowing back Akira in his anger. Akira cowers in his corner, gripping his wooden sword in fear. "You were allowed 15 seconds to answer me! And you did not, so you must pay the consequences! NOW! I want you to go outside and TRAIN, as you were told to do! I have warned you dozens of times, do NOT come back inside for anything, not even for a drink, unless I tell you otherwise!"
Akira gulps. "Y-Yes... s-sir..." he mumbles, his body shaking.
Seeing the fear he had instilled in his student, the Sensei takes a deep breath and kneels, meeting Akira eye to eye. "You. You are a special boy. I am only doing this for your own good. And since I found you, you have to abide by my rules. There is no one here who will take you in... The world is a cruel place. I am merely prepping you for it."
Akira, unable to think of a response, nods his head, his body beginning to relax as his Sensei's calmer voice.
"Now, get up," Sensei says, standing and extending his inviting hand. He smiles. "You are like a son to me, Akira. Please... I do not like doing this. Simply listen to what you are told, and you will be fine... That goes with anything."
Akira nods again, and a small smile begins to form on his pale face. He reaches out.
"Simply listen..." Sensei repeats, somehow, without speaking.
Akira grips his hand...
"Listen..."
~Akira's hand is raised, gripped tightly by the announcer.
"WE HAVE THE WINNER! AKIRA WINS BY FORFEIT!"
The crowd explodes into cheering. For some strange reason, they didn't seem to mind missing a match. Perhaps because it is so sweltering outside, they are just as eager to move on to the semifinals, or even the finals. Those are the matches that really count.
Caught in his daze, Akira snaps back to the harsh reality by the booming. He had almost completely forgotten he was supposed to fight. Now, with the disappearance of Binar, he won. A cheap win, yes, but rules are rules, so he won "fair and square" as far as the judges are concerned.
As he heads back to the waiting room with the other fighters, he begins to wonder.
(What happened to Binar...?)
* * *
"NEXT MATCH! KYE versuuuuuUUUS... KUKURAAAAAAAAAAAANCH!!!!" ((Spelled "Kukuranch"))
The announcer's sharp voice is clearly heard from a far, dark corner of the building.
And standing there is a twelve-foot giant, wielding a katana at hand, and on his left middle finger he wears a shobo, a ring with a small notch of wood used to hit the pressure points of opponents, usually leaving them paralyzed.
The giant looms above a lizard-like man, who struggles to get to his feet.
"Y-You!" the lizard snarls, coughing up a black goo from its mouth. "You made me... lose! How! DARE you!!"
The giant simply grunts a reply: "It will make the fights go faster. I want to reach the finals and take the prize destined for me." Hearing his name, he begins to walk away.
But the lizard-man, Binar, isn't done yet. "G-GET BACK HERE! I will... I WILL kill you for what you've done! Cheating son of a--"
Before he knew it, the giant was once again looming before him, the katana embedded in his skull. Binar didn't even see it coming. He choked out a cough of anguish, then, with his eyes rolling to the back of his head, he perished...
The giant cleanly pulls out his sword, and wipes it with a cloth. "Poor fool... I almost felt bad killing you." The giant, named Kukuranch, makes his way to the Battle Arena, leaving behind the corpse of a lizard. The very fighter Akira was supposed to do battle with.
