Forum Games / Muper Sario Spoonerisms

« on: October 28, 2005, 07:37:25 AM »

Prepare yourself for another add-a-sentence story, but this time it’s one like no other (and that I hope does better than the other two I made).  Are you ready for some super WTD spoonerism craziness!  If you already know what a spoonerism is then you should have no problem understanding this right away, but if not I’ll tell you how this works.  Simply make any kind of sentence you want in a story about Mario’s world, then switch the beginning consonants of two or more similar words to make hilarious new words.  For example, if you normally said Super Mario then you could turn it around to make Muper Sario and stuff like that. (But also be careful of what you say because you might end up with something offensive.)  If you want to hear a really funny spoonerism story, I suggest you check out Rindercella because it’s hysterical.  But right now let’s get this crazy spork and foon tale going!

First sentence: One evening, Sario had a drange stream.

(E I):o{D___(--I I):o(D___(o 8(= P)___(= (:  )@)___(3 I)}:O})+)___<( )=(: )) )

Forum Games / Mario poetry: Add a line or two

« on: September 30, 2005, 08:33:01 AM »

If you are eager or weary of wait, avoid this dull intro and run through the gate!

Hello, my TMK friend, and welcome to my thread.  I hope that your time here will be funner than sliced bread.  There’s not a whole lot I need to say, the title is quite clear.  Just a line or two of prose your own way, and the course of fun poetry you shall steer.  What is a line you may ask? To tell you is a simple task!  It’s the part that works up to a pause and sets the word of rhyme, to finish it off at a soon-coming time.  A completed rhyme in the next line is perfectly fine, but perhaps to postpone it a bit should be more sublime.  To prevent you from having a really big cow, I think I will zip it and start the poetry now.  So do what you please and be silly if you must.  Feel free to start up a limerick and give it more thrust.  Have a great time and know this fact more: never gyre and grimble at the grabe but remember dear old Lenore.

First line: Mario and Luigi were plumbers who loved to fix old drains.

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

Game Help / Bad button timing in PM2

« on: September 28, 2005, 12:46:25 PM »

How long has it been since I posted here?  Quite awhile for sure.  I have a strange problem in TTYD that is driving me nuts (well, it did drive me nuts last time I rented it).  Whenever I try to make C. Bobbery or Smasher (my Yoshi) do a power-up attack like lick-and-spit or explode, it doesn't work and I fall on my face.  I never had trouble with this before but for some reason I am now.  Are the buttons a little messed up or have I completely lost my timing?  Can anyone lend a reptilian brother a hand?

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

General Chat / Create your own phobias

« on: September 23, 2005, 09:42:53 AM »

No... no... no!  It can’t be!  Not that!  Anything but... another topic from Yoshisaurus Pest!  Yes, my pritties.  You won’t get away this time.  I have a special treat for you.  In this topic I’m going to make you create brand new phobias that will keep you shaking for the rest of your life.  And if that wasn’t horrible enough you can also admit your deepest fears to those around you with huge embarrasment!  Oh, it’s so awful, isn’t it?  I laugh at your miserable misery!  And if you hold R and rotate the control stick while hitting A and B repeatedly... you’ll turn into a paper race car!!  Nyahahahaha...

Wow.  I’ve really lost it this time.  But I like this idea of mine, even if it’s been done more than once in the past.  Make up new phobias, talk about any that you might have, and other stuff like that.  I don’t need to tell you what to do, it’s a “free” message board after all.  So let’s just do it already!  Here’s what I made:

- Phobophobophobia, the fear of becoming afraid of phobophobia.
- Whammaslamophobia, the fear of someone slamming a door in your face when you’re about to walk through it.
- Nearofkinautodestructophobia, the fear of someone related to your demolishing your automobile.
- Watoadopostarachnidaphobia, the fear of Watoad putting up a picture of that large yellow spider again.
- Companionolavatoryocongestaphobia, the fear of going to a friend’s house and clogging their toilet.
- Eternalmariocelebrationophobia, the fear of never-ending Mario Party sequels.
- Authorswedgeophobophobia, the fear of not being able to think of new phobias.

Not scientifically correct but I don't think some of these words have greek or latin origins.  Anyway, I think I may have a fear of what people thing, rejection, and a few others I want to change.  As an example I feel akward in public if I wear a Mario shirt, and I wish I didn't feel that way.  But I won't give up until I'm free of these things.

If anyone knows where we can find scientific terms for everyday words, feel free to tell us.  The more complicated the better!  And for the record I wanted to call this topic Fungiphobia or Createaphobia, but I think that more obvious titles work better here (so I can’t be too creative).

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

Forum Games / Mario's Rad Gab Adventure

« on: September 16, 2005, 10:15:44 PM »

You’ve heard of "Add a sentence", you’ve heard of "Add 1/2 a sentence", and you’ve even heard of "Add a word."  Now are you ready... for something so rad, so gab, so absolutely crazy... okay, I’ll just get on with it already.  I had this funny idea for a story topic a long time ago that I sort of copied from similar grammar stories, but until now I had forgot about it.  Now I’m going to do it!  This is another type of story like the kinds above, but with a little more freedom than usual.  In this completely crazy, random not-serious-unless-you-want-it-to-be-but-it-won't-stay-that-way story, people will have a character about to say something and then someone else will finish what they say.

Here’s a better example.  Bear with me please.  First I’ll have someone do something and talk a little bit (I can break the rules because I made them) and then end my post with a past tense verb and a comma like "said,".  Then the next person can show the dialogue of whatever they want.  Along with this you can also have one paragraph of story, and also one more piece of dialogue.  The very least you can do is fill in the dialogue and the very most you can do is have a paragraphs of talking and a paragraph of action.  You don't have to end it with a comma but it might be more fun  that way.  I know this may sound a little mind-bending but you’ll understand when it gets going. (And if this system doesn’t work out very well we can always change it later).

Now here’s the story!
* * * * * * * * * * * *

"Ah... AH... ACHOOOOO!" sneezed Mario and rubbed his nose.  "I-a must be allergic to this a-here flower.  It’s-a making my nostrils burn!"  This kind of flower was a very strange looking one that Mario had never seen before so he decided to smell it just for the block of it (but this has nothing to do with the story).  Today, our Italian plumber friend was strolling through the woods and exploring for delictable mushrooms.  And until this moment he had took please in his adventure.

But something you might not know is that Mario wasn’t just walking the trails for exercise or exploration.  On this day, Mario had this very strange feeling that just somehow, Peach was going to get kidnapped AGAIN and for some reason he just didn’t feel like doing it today.  The feeling began when Mario woke up and didn’t feel right about something, then checked his mailbox and got another letter from the Princess, and then the sky turned black over the castle with blinding lightning.  So he thought “If-a Bowser gets her again, let someone else-a be the hero!”

So, yeah the story is pretty weird so far.  But just wait because it’s about to get much weirder!  As Mario continued to get a more stuffed-up nose and indigestion from bad mushrooms, he heard a sound coming quickly behind him.  He bravely swirled around and saw the silouette of Toad running straight at him.  â€œMAAAAARRRIIIIIIIOOOOOOO!  You got to HEEEEELLLP UUSSSSSSS!  PLEEEEEEAASEEE!”

Mario knew exactly what he was going to say and without thinking twice… he decided to run!  So he ran and ran all around the mushroom world and tried to get away from Toad, but he somehow managed to stay behind.  If it was underground, in the air, underwater, in dark dungeons, or on planes, trains, automobiles, or go-karts the little mushroom reatiner never slowed down.  â€œMario, what are you DOING?!  We need your help already!  Come on you lazy butt!  Mario, you fat lard, come get some DINNER!  Gosh!”

“A-no way, Froggy!  I’m not helping save the Princess this-a time!  You can’t make me!  You can’t—“ then he tripped over a rock and Toad caught up with him.  After smacking him over and over for making him chase him so far, he said, “What is your deal today?  Have you lost your mind entirely?  Or have you just reached that age where you get so lazy that you… run… all… the time?  Uhhhhh…”

“I won’t-a do it!  Find someone else-a!”

“Why?  I thought you wanted to get all the action like usual.  You’re really strange today.  Are you sure you’re not an EVIL CLONE CREATED BY BOWSER?!?!?!”

“NO!  Give me a break-a here!  Why don’t you go pester my-a unpopular brother for a change?”

“That’s just it!  I can’t ask him.  He’s gone completely insane!”

“I know-a he is.  Wait.  He’s-a jealous of me so he’ll do anything for attention.  What did he do now?”

“Pretty much the stupidest thing ever.  Today I was on the internet at THK (the human kingdom), when suddenly Luigi burst into the castle.  We thought he was just coming in as usual to play Sonic, but suddenly he ran up the stairs, barged into Peach’s room, and… HE KIDNAPPED THE PRINCESS!”

At this point Mario fell over and started to choke he was lauging so hard.  Toad ignored him and contined takling.

“He tied her up, jumped out the window with her in his arms, and then ran away singing “I’m-a going to be a he-ro!  I’m going to be a he-ro!  Take that Mario!’ and then on the Fungi News I heard that he took her to… Bower’s castle!”

“Ha ha ha ha ha ha-a!  That’s a pretty funny joke, Toad!  Hee hee hee!  This reminds or something I did in highschool.”

“I chased you all over the world and you think I’m TELLING A JOKE?!  You’re as crazy as Luigi!  But speaking of jokes… knock-knock!!”

“Okay, Toad, calm down and tell-a me why you’re really here.”

“Interrupting cow!”

“I know that there-a must be a—“

“MOOOOOOO!!  Oh… I’m sorry.  Here, I’ve got a letter from Luigi to prove it.”

Toad handed Mario a napkin with writing on it and Mario read it.  It looked and sounded almost exactly like Bowser’s letter to him in SMB3 and even had a picture of Luigi wearing sunglasses.  But unlike that he changed several words such as saying he took Peach to Bowser’s castle and was going to save her himself and he would stomp on Mario if he tried to stop him.  Mario’s eyes grew huge and he read the letter again, stared at Toad who was running away from a Goomba, and looked up into the sky in huge shock and anger.  Suddenly he crumpled the letter in his fist, opened his mouth, and screamed,
* * * * * * * * * *
Have fun! ;)  And don't forget that you can hit the "reset button" to start a new story any time you want, or push "deset" to go back to an old one.  You have the power!

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

Mario Chat / Mario's Money Machine

« on: June 03, 2005, 11:04:04 AM »

Although a lot of people may be getting sick of seeing Mario's face on so many games and merchandise, there are those of us fanatics who simply cannot get enough of him... such as me.  Well, I can get enough of Mario but I wouldn't mind seeing a few extra products that are covered with him and his friends.  Not a whole bunch but just a little.

Now to finally get to the big questions of this topic: if you could choose to make anything that had Nintendo's famous mascot on it-- like toys, clothes, etc-- what would it be?  And what kind of new, original games would you want to see with him in it?  Here's my answers.

Merchandise: (1) I wouldn't mind some toy gold coins that have that little I in the middle and feel like real money (I don't know, it just would be fun to have).  Or maybe as tokens for a Nintendo arcade or something.
(2) Some Mario wrap-arounds for your game systems like the Pokemon stuff, which might be coming soon anyway.
(3) A Mario Monopoly is a must, but a SSBM Monopoly could be even better as someone here mentioned.  Or maybe a Mario chess board.
(4) Piano book for the songs in DDR:MM.
(5) A voice-changer toy to sound like good ol' Charlie!

We have do everything we can to compete with Spongebob!

Games: DDR, Mario's Mix is something that I never even dreamed of happening and now I really look forward that.  But there's still more to make!

 (1) Mario Party Deluxe (not original but hey) [Revolution].  As you know it has all of the old mini-games and boards together in one game, and you can choose which ones you want in the game and which left out.  Something new you get is the flash mini-game mode where just like Wario Ware you play just a few seconds of a mini-game (but longer in this case) and then keep going through them quickly and trying to get the most points however you do that.

(2) Super Wario Bros. [Revolution].  A big no-brainer, but better than you think.  Wario, Waluigi, Bowser, and Bowser Jr. are sent to a strange new dimension and must work together to battle tons of old and new enemies, travel to other dimensions (some like Mario's) and find their way home.  This might not sound that great but unlike most Mario games in this one you will discover many secrets about Mushroom world like who is Bowser's wife and where are his children?  And you can control the characters separetely just like in Sonic Adventure but also work together at times.  You also get new weapons like fireball guns and such.  Game also has multi-player missions and battles.  Keep your eyes peeled for characters like Wart Jr., Tatanga, Geno and Mallow!

It's pretty sad that I want all of that stuff, huh?  I might think of some more later, but what do you think?

If this post is edited, as it probably is, you may be wondering why.  Well let me tell you.  Each of YR’s posts are carefully revised and polished over and over to give you, the reader, the most enjoyable and entertaining material possible.  With his posts you have his own personal guarantee that they are of high quality, contain well-thought out wording, and most likely have a bit of humorous content to keep you interested.  That, my friend, is the Yoshisaurus difference.

Forum Games / Operation Unpossible!

« on: May 25, 2005, 03:42:17 PM »

Warning: the following stuff that you are about to read could possibly be the dumbest and worst thing ever to hit this site, and may not be suitable for people who have no sense of humor or take things way too seriously.  Turn back now or face the possibility of losing your entire mind faster than you can even scream.  Everyone else... I hope you enjoy.

Hello, agent letter-number-number, and welcome to Operation Unpossible!  I’m sure that you are curious as to what the Dukar I am talking about here.  Well this has nothing to do with Mission Impossible, which coincidently has a name that’s similar to this.  Here you make up very difficult and crazy operations you must solve and then tell how you accomplish them in every detail, but you do them in absurd and crazy ways that most people wouldn't.  I got this idea from two of my weird friends awhile back who made up many stupid operations in a note book and wrote down how they did them.  Some of them included things like operation steal Hitler’s mustache, operation steal the devil’s pitch fork, operation steal the state team’s mascot, and operation get the rabbit some trix (lot of stealing going on).  These were all pretty funny and I soon decided to make my own operation, and I’ll show it below.  You probably won’t find this really that funny if at all, but I think it kind of is sorta (just remember not to take it too seriously or you might get mad :)).  After this feel free to create your own adventures and discover for yourself that the unpossible can actually be possible!  *plays M:I music*


OPERATION #27009: FIND AND CAPTURE BIN LADEN!!!

   Supplies: This could be one of our most hardest and dangerous plans we have ever thunk of so we will need lots of stuff.  Too much stuff to mention right now.

Plan A: First we (my friend and I) shall go to the bank and get money to buy some things.  Namely— lots of roller skates, lots of spotlights, lots of pet carriers, lots of people with too much time on their hands, lots of body armor, lots and lots of ice cream and ice cream men, and two police dogs.  Before we can use all of the wonderful thingss, we will take the two police dogs and bring them along with us in our time machine that we used to steal Hitler’s mustache.  We will go to the future, where Bin Laden will be out from hiding and out in the open.  He will be ruling over America at this point and should be very easy to find.  So, we shall use some technology that freezes time and we will sneak into his castle (the White House reconstructed) and will run around the place until we find Laden.  Then we will tell the dogs to sniff him.  If them don’t obey we’ll simply shove them into him and tell them to smell.  With the scent on their noses we shall return to the past with the police dogs in our time machine.

Next we will drink some more smartness juice that we invented and create a cloning machine for the police dogs.  We’ll make thousands of dogs that look and think just like the first two, and also have the scent of Bin Laden in their noses.  We’ll also genetically enhance them so they can run super fast and smell things really really good (note: do not eat beans during this time period).  Now we shall use the plane tickets to fly to Iraq or wherever it was, with all the people who have too much time on their hands, and also put all the police dogs in the pet carriers.  The ice cream men, on the other hand, will drive their ice cream trucks onto a ship and meet us there later.  This will take a long time but it will be worth it.  Next, when we are all in Iraq, me and my friend shall put on our roller skates and hold the leashes to the dogs, and then tell the people to do the exact same thing.  Then we’ll also tell them to put on the body armor and strap the spotlights to their heads, face them forwards, and turn them on.  Soon it will be show time.

On my signal, I will blow a whistle and the dogs will take off, pulling me, my friend, and all the slackers around Iraq in random locations while we follow closely behind on roller skates.  Each dog will run very fast but keep sniffing the entire time to search for our friend.  The spotlights will warn people that we are coming so they can get out of the way quickly.  The body armor will protect us from crashing and also from crazy terrorists or Americans who want to shoot us for no good reason/accidently.  While everyone zooms around Iraq, with some also exploring underground, the ice cream men will soon show up on the boat for backup and will drive their trucks around while playing happy music.  This music, which every single human, animal, and plant will immediately recognize from their God-given built-in ice cream music sense, will help to lure people out of their homes and caves for “free” ice cream.  Hopefully Bin Laden will not be able to resist the temptation of sweet, chocolately frozen goodness and will come running out right into our nets.  If he doesn’t come out from that, and the dogs don’t find him, and the whole entire day has gone by without the slightest sign of the guy, we’ll take a break and sleep until tomorrow.  In the morning, we’ll try again.

Eventually (hopefully) someone will find Bin Laden and we shall all rejoice and then bring him to America and get big fat pay checks.  We will tell him to stop doing terrible things, and threaten to throw him in jail if he doesn’t (actually we’ll throw him in jail either way, but lying can help sometimes).  We will become rich and famous and everyone will forgive us for the terrible things we did before.  I hope.

Plan B: We hire a million bored teenagers to wander around Iraq and find Bin Laden.
----------

Now it’s your turn!  Your operation doesn’t have to be as long as this or as stupid.  Just be kreative!

General Chat / Do you got a girlfriend?

« on: May 15, 2005, 07:32:44 PM »

If this topic doesn’t get some attention then I don’t know what else to make that will. But I didn't make this just to get attention, I thought it would be fun to talk about.  So how many of you guys here have girlfriends (if you aren't married yet)?  What do you most like or dislike about them?  If you don’t have a girlfriend, then what are the characteristics that you search for most in a girl?  And for you girls the same thing goes for you with your boyfriends and stuff, so you can also join in.  I bet this topic has previously existed but there’s nothing wrong with bringing back the classics every once in awhile! (like Nintendo does XD)

As for me, I would so love to lie about this-- like my man Napoleon D.-- and say that I have a really attractive girlfriend in my school who loves Mario games as much as I do, but that’s not true so I won’t say it.  But as for things I look for in a girl… physical attraction doesn’t matter that much to me.  I just want someone who has the same morals and beliefs as me and is honest, fun-loving, and will put up with my occasional weirdness.  And since I’m kind of shy I’d definitely like to go out with someone at least fairly outgoing so they make me feel comfortable (but I could adjust to a shy gal too eventually).  How about you?

Quick Fact: I was going to start this thread out by insulting the reader of being a Mario-obsessed nerd without a chance of fidning a date (just as a joke) but fortunately I didn't.  Because who knows how close I'm aiming at myself after all!

Forum Games / TMK Mafia Game

« on: May 10, 2005, 10:17:11 AM »

Game: open for players
Time limit: until whenever I feel like it

Has anyone ever played Mafia before?  My friends and I used to play it a few times in school and let me tell you it was really fun and suspenseful (unless you were bad at lying like I am).  And now that I got out of school and have more time on my hands,  I thought it would be a good idea if we played my version of the game here at TMK.  Sure, it’s not as fun as the real thing since you can’t hear the people talking nervously or watch them squirming in their seats, but this could still be fun.  I’ll explain how we can do this over the internet but first I’ll expalin the rules of my version if anyone doesn’t how to play (but prepare to possibly get very confused and bored if you do read this for the first time).  If you want to skip these rules and just figure it out as you go, that’s fine too.  But make sure you read internet rules below.

-----------
     Characters: Okay, here’s the skinny.  Several people sit together in a room and are divided up into teams and individual roles.  Most of the people are townspeople, 3 of the people are mafia, 1 person is a detective, and 1 person is a nurse (and they are both part of the townspeople).  The mafia are trying to get rid of all of the townspeople by killing them or making them throw each other in jail so that they can rule the town.  They do this by pretending to be part of the townspeople but secretly working together and agreeing on who to do away with each turn.  The townspeople must think carefully and try to discover who is part of the mafia and then agree on someone to throw in jail in the court cases.  The detective can guess on who is part of the mafia and ask the host of the game--in this case me-- who they think it is and they will tell them if they’re right or not, and can go on to try and convince the townspeople.  The nurse has the great power to protect people from being killed by choosing one person to protect from danger each turn (but they can’t tell them they are a nurse or lie about it and the same goes for the detective).

------------------
     Game rules: The game starts.  First the mafia will talk among themselves during the “night” and decide on one person to eliminate.  Then the nurse will choose one person to save (if the mafia choose that one they must choose another).  Finally, the detective can choose a person that they think is the mafia and the host will tell them if they are or not, and they can go on to influence the people without looking suspicious.  The townspeople wake up now and the host will tell them who died and is out of the game.  Then the fun begins and everyone must talk among each other and try to figure out who killed them using their own intuition and facts from who has been killed and stuff.  The mafia will try to act like them and lead the suspicion off of them and make their own accusations.  Then the host will ask the people to choose 3 suspects and then must vote again and narrow it down to one person, and that person will be thrown in jail and removed from the game.  This continues on for awhile until the numbers drop down, and things get very interesting.  If all 3 members of the mafia are thrown in jail, then the host will tell you so and everyone else will win.  However, if all of the townspeople are thrown in jail and at least one mafia member is safe, then the mafia team wins.  If this is all over your head, don’t worry, I can help a lot during the game.  Anyone let me know if you have comments or questions about this.

-----------------------
     New internet rules: Now on to the important stuff.  Since we are all in different places of the world right now and can’t sit in the same room and all that (and everyone can see what we type) we’ll have to make a small adjustment.  In order for the mafia, detective, and nurse to talk to me without others hearing them, we’ll need to use an email system.  Yes, that’s right… an email system.  First I’ll randomly select the 5 or less people for their different roles (and by random I really do mean random), and then I’ll send them emails about who they are and what they should do.  Everyone can talk to me but cannot talk to the members who talk to me (except for mafia).  And also, if you don’t get an email and I start the game, that means you’re just a townsperson.  So, is that about as clear as mud?  Let’s get started!

This game is open for 7-12 people so it doesn’t last too long (number of characters may decrease with less people).  After that it will be closed to other people until the game ends and someone else can take my place as host (unless I decided otherwise).  I suggest that you only play this game if you have some time on your hands, don’t mind the chance of a little extra email, and have a general idea of how to play or a little patience in learning as you go.  So, who wants to play? *cue the crickets*

Video Game Chat / Roller Coaster Tycoons

« on: May 06, 2005, 07:05:14 AM »

Clinkity-clank, clinkity-clank, clinkity-clank... "Aaaaaaaaaaahhh!" Don't you just love that sound?  The sound of little kids screaming their heads off on fast and freaky roller coasters.  Man, I do.  Roller coasters are like one of the greatest inventions of all time!  I just love them to death.

This topic is about roller coasters and people's favorites, but it's also about the super addictive theme-park building game known as Roller Coaster Tycoon that's so fun and such a blast that it isn't funny.
The first time I played it took me awhile to get the hang of it but when I did I couldn't stop.  I would play for 3 hours at a time and then I'd look at the clock and realise how much time I wasted.  Those were fun times.

What kind of roller coasters do you like?  Which ones do you think are the best?  Do you have any great/funny memories from going to theme parks?

And how about Roller Coaster Tycoon?  Do you play that?  If so, tell us about your interesting/funny experiences playing the game.  Show us pictures of your sweet rides.  Prove to us all that you really are the greatest tycoon of building ultimate theme parks!  Unless you're chicken that is.

I thought this would be a great topic to talk about.  Even though I don't know how to put up pictures, I do have an interesting story.  The first time I tried to beat RCT1, our computer had to be rebooted so I lost everyithing in the game.  My files, my parks, my rides... everything.  And I only had a few more parks left to finish.  I was so upset I wanted to break a window.  But then one day I decided to try it again.  I got close again and then the computer had to be rebooted again and so, yes, I lost it all a second time.  After that I didn't play the game for a very long time but then I just couldn't stop thinking of what the last level-- Mega Park-- would be like and couldn't bear the thought of never getting to it.  So I tried a final time and finally beat the game!  That was such an incredible feeling to reach the last level, but I felt so ribbed obb from playing the game for so long that I haven't played it or any sequels for a long time.  What about you?

Well, Mother's Day is coming up soon!  You'll want to give her something that she will love and cherish in your heart.  What will you do for her?  What will you do for the greatest woman of your life who has given birth to you, changed your reeky diapers, helped you through your stupid homework, and bought you all of those Mario games for birthdays and Christmas?

I thought this would be fun to talk about.  What are YOU going to do for your wonderful mom on mother's day?  Breakfast in bed?  Make dinner?  Give her a card?  Flowers?  Chocolate?  Or maybe just stay out of her hair for one whole day. :)

For me, I'm not quite sure.  I'm going to write in a card for her and both of my grandparents are coming to our house for dinner and will get flowers and stuff.  How about you?

Mario Chat / The song that will never die

« on: April 21, 2005, 07:11:57 AM »

Hey everyone again!  Another topic and another one about favorite things.  Okay, this time I was just wondering, what are your favorite versions of the SMB overworld song? (or any Mario song!  Topic updated!)  There has to be like at least 50 of those, right?  Man, that song is going to be around forever I bet.

Anyway, my favorite version of that song so far is probably the one in the first SSB (also played shortly in Melee) that had the horns, but the one in PM:TTYD was also catchy. Oh, and I gotta mention this... one song I heard at OC Remix made me laugh for awhile.  The instruments kept changing, volume would shot up at one point, you could hear Mario's voice part way through (along with some little kid's), and these two guys were rapping about noodles.  Heh heh.  So what's your favorite version?

Video Game Chat / vidgmcmrcls

« on: April 14, 2005, 07:09:12 AM »

Okay, I’ve now decided that the time has come for me to start making more topics.  I usually try to avoid adding more to the never-ending list because I’m afraid that it already exists and I’m just wasting my time (which is probably the case here), but no more of that!  I’m going to swallow my fear and just do this and I don’t care who don’t like it, no sir!

Well, I guess I should probably get to the point now.  Like the title says, you can talk about anything you want that’s related to your favorite commercials made for video games (and not just Nintendo either!).  But I’ve also got some other ideas of things to discuss here as well so I’m going to just mix them together in one topic for more to talk about and let people choose.  Here’s what I had in mind:

(1) Favorite VG commercials
(2) Favorite music in a VG commercial
(3) Your own wacky ideas of commercials for old or new games
(4) What you think the ad for Mario in DDR will be like

So one of my favorite commericals so far would probably be the one for M&L:SS.  Seeing Mario and Luigi as children and fighting each other with the whistling in the background was pretty funny.  It also inspired me to conjure a similar one like it for Super Mario Sunshine with Mario dousing his friends and family with water as he grew up (and you can read about it in one of the mailbags if you want).  For music, I liked the songs chosen for the Minish Cap and also Mario Pinball.  And finally, I’m guessing that MDDR will involve either dancing plumbers or people in Mario costumes getting’ shiggy wit it.  What do you think? (besides that I’m a goofball ^_^)

And thanks to Vidgmchtr for letting me copy his name since I couldn’t think of any other good titles.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but not their own facts.  But I think we can all agree that Mario rules and that''s a fact!

Site Discussion / Two Stupid Questions

« on: December 31, 2004, 09:34:24 PM »

In case any is wondering why this is back, I'm just erasing my old posts so that no one will ever read them.  I know it's stupid but I just want to destroy this so that no one can ever read the stupid things I said without thinking.  And for those wondering, don't worry I did get my questions answered (after doing the obvious and emailing Deezer).
