LOL zeffers has too much work.

Aquacorde January 2nd, 2011 10:57 PM

Zeffy.

Where is Zeffy with these results.

/hyped up on sugar and impatient

Regeneration January 2nd, 2011 11:06 PM

We're waiting for Zeffy for his scores of the map-off too. XD;

Where are you Zeffy? ;_;

bobandbill January 2nd, 2011 11:09 PM

Calm down. XD It's not that quick and easy to go through all the stories and decide which one is better than others and for what reasons and so forth especially if people have life stuff or multiple contests to juggle or the sort. =p Writing contests can be rushed, but that wouldn't necessarily turn out well. XD (And I've been doing some comments along with my scoring too =p).

That said I've nearly done myself, just have to settle on a few scoring things - just have patience, is all.

Aquacorde January 2nd, 2011 11:17 PM

It's a good thing I have a short attention span. I'm only impatient for like 5 minutes, then find something else to do.

I found a very strange forum, you guys. Goes along with one of the sites I loved when I was younger.

Ninja Caterpie January 2nd, 2011 11:43 PM

Yeah, Zeffy's working on both the writing and mapping competitions :x

And does this strange forum have a name? ;]

I am eagerly awaiting the 12 days of Christmas results, shouldn't be too long now!

Aquacorde January 2nd, 2011 11:50 PM

Poor Zeffers. :<

It's the Pokemopolis forums.

Ninja Caterpie January 2nd, 2011 11:50 PM

I have a funny feeling the results won't be ready when I wake up tomorrow. :x

Regeneration January 2nd, 2011 11:52 PM

Heck yeah.
Why should I even be impatient for the map-off results? I'm not even participating. XD;

Alternative January 2nd, 2011 11:52 PM

I wouldn't mind seeing the results for the 12 Days of Pokemon Christmas results. :D
Speaking of results, I've got to end the Graphics event tomorrow and judge for that.

I am having a look at it now.

Yeah the 12 days of Christmas results would be interesting. Although I want to win, I hope I get second or third because those emblems look the best XD

DarkAlucard January 3rd, 2011 5:30 AM

Damn, i missed all the events :S
That X-mas trip leave me without any chance of being around and participating.
BTW Happy late New Year!!!

Well I missed events too because...I chose not to participate. XD

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ January 3rd, 2011 7:30 AM

I only entered the 12 Days of Pokemon Christmas because I was offline for much of it :/

AshPikastar January 3rd, 2011 7:38 AM

I only tried out two events this time which is the AMV contest and the Skype event. I'm glad that I actually joined a event this time. Hopefully I'll join the next event whenever we have another one.

Spherical Ice January 3rd, 2011 9:42 AM

I had no inspiration to enter the Sprite Edit contest, or the Map off for that matter. I was just mapping and then sort of "made" it fit the New Years, and somehow came in second place o.O'

LightOfTruth January 3rd, 2011 10:06 AM

Now we are waiting for the 12 days of Christmas results and the day when I will see my new emblems :)

Ninja Caterpie January 3rd, 2011 3:24 PM

Hahaha, it was because your map was good, Ice. Most of the maps were totally half-assed or kinda meh in general

Although what I am surprised about is DrFuji not being in the top 3.

but yay~ I won the mapping contest~ :)

Aquacorde January 3rd, 2011 4:38 PM

Guys I've been up for 36 hours. Why am I hyper.

Alternative January 3rd, 2011 7:23 PM

Why have you even been up for 36 hours? Don't you have any sense of sleep in you? Can I ask you another question while on this slur of asking pointless rhetorical questions?

Anyway, from just seeing the results of the 12 Days of Pokemon Christmas I never thought that I'd win that. Honestly, I think the person who came second and whose name escapes me was a lot better than mine, but the judge didn't see it tht way. :)

The lack of sleep has gotten to you. GO TO SLEEP NOW.

Aquacorde January 4th, 2011 3:22 AM

I forgot to sleep.

....And I nearly passed out at my desk around 8.

Yay.

AshPikastar January 4th, 2011 4:40 AM

I took a nap yesterday once I got home and woke up around 6am and is still tired for some reason. I even went to bed early.

Regeneration January 4th, 2011 4:44 AM

I've been waking up at 9 AM all these days but since school starts tomorrow, no more of those. =(

AshPikastar January 4th, 2011 4:47 AM

I use to wake up around 1pm during Christmas Break since I would stay up all night since I couldn't sleep. Can't wait to sleep in Friday.

LightOfTruth January 4th, 2011 10:35 AM

If anyone still wants to chat with me go to Other Chat where I set somewhere to chat :)

Aww man aren't you the lucky person. Doesn't like waking up at 6am in the morning just to go to school. If the school hours was later then I wouldn't mind going to school at all.

I got really bored so I looked through the members list to see if I could find myself under the "A" section and there I was, under the 364 page. Man that was fun.

Yay for Australia! Yay for finishing High School last year as well so I don't have uni for 2 months! :D

moments. January 4th, 2011 4:47 PM

That is actually so true, however it's unfortunate that in order to get into certain universities and colleges, it relies heavily on how your high school finishes up..

moments. January 4th, 2011 4:52 PM

That's true, and like now that I'm finished and I see photos of the guys who finished high school with me, I think, these are people I may never see again. Even if I wasn't like a close friend, it is still sad.

moments. January 4th, 2011 5:01 PM

Well I might be forced to make heaps of new friends because I'm not 100% sure I got into the course I wanted most where a lot of my friends are also going... If I go to the other place, I will need to make new friends, which is both good and bad I guess.

Uni is fuuuun. I think I go back there about Feb 20 or something.

moments. January 4th, 2011 5:10 PM

Uni starts at the start of March I'm pretty sure for myself.
Well I need to choose a University first, and then find out details. :P

Ho-Oh January 4th, 2011 5:16 PM

Luckyyyy. XD Though you may end up finishing later on in the year due to that... hmm.

For me choosing a uni was easy, since I always wanted to go to this uni. :D;

moments. January 4th, 2011 5:24 PM

Yeah maybe, or less holidays in the middle, but that's ok...

And that's good you knew, what course are you doing?

Ho-Oh January 4th, 2011 5:27 PM

Naaaah I doubt you'd get less holidays tbh. XD; Though still, month long holidays are good anyway... so even if they cut it, you probably wouldn't know the difference.

Journalism/Broadcasting. :D Though this year a few of my units might be kinda boring because I...well I have to take them and I'm not interested in those areas of journalism. XD; Last year at uni was defs pretty good at second semester though!

moments. January 4th, 2011 5:30 PM

I've got nothing against a good month long holiday :P

Sounds good! Well, persevere with the ones you may not want to do now, it will all pay off!

I know right... I have been sick with an eye infection, so that is all I really could do while my friends went out and stuff. But I am going to the beach soon for a week which should be cool, though normally my family goes for two weeks but we have left it a bit late for that.

If it was me I would probably just sleep all day. I just came in first place in my first event I ever joined in the AMV contest. All entries where really good though.

LightOfTruth January 5th, 2011 8:25 AM

Has anyone received there emblems yet for the New Year Extravaganza?

Regeneration January 5th, 2011 8:36 AM

Be patient, you shall receive them soon. As soon as one of the admins uploads them, some staff member will hand it over to you.

Quote:

people in Uni tend to be far more mature than that of your average High Schooler, so there's hardly a need to be shy.
Since when does immature = you shy? o.o ill be shy even why the mature people xD
But why are people so immature? -_-
some people acc called me more mature xD.

moments. January 5th, 2011 3:26 PM

I don't think he means, immature=shy. Rather, you don't need to be shy to approach people who are more mature. It is easier to approach them because they are mature.

Also, it's sad to see the events get wrapped up! Next time eh? :D

Yeah thats what I meant to type
ill be shy to anyone, immature or mature. I dont get how you just get to approach immature people, some find it harder to approach mature. :P

Yeah its kinda sad, since I didnt do allot, b.c ima host n lil lazy/no confendence? :P
Cant wait to next time! Anyone who likes me or Fuyuhiko as a host. Dont expect us o.o

moments. January 5th, 2011 4:18 PM

Oh yeah! Why should we not expect you two to be hosting again?

Belinda January 5th, 2011 4:25 PM

Because it was definitely a lot of work keeping it up and spending too much time online, quite exhausting if you ask me. However, I may change my mind if there happens to be another Skype event(change my mind).

moments. January 5th, 2011 4:27 PM

Did you have to be online to keep the PC thing open? :o
That's ridiculous!

Belinda January 5th, 2011 4:34 PM

Well, we wanted to keep people entertained, but I have to admit the event was quite enjoyable itself.

no and kinda, but were the host, so we had to kinda maintain the chat. Ill be at the next chat, just not host, ill be lurking watching him.

And me and him were in the same time zone, so i was kinda there during our "day" while he hosted, and he was gone while i did the "late nite" chats. there were some "dead" spots though.

moments. January 5th, 2011 4:38 PM

Mm, I came on a few times, and there weren't many people on, but otherwise I forgot to log on heaps of times cause I don't use Skype that much outside the event. So...

Meganium January 5th, 2011 4:56 PM

At least you two were awesome hosting the event though. ;) Great job!

moments. January 5th, 2011 4:57 PM

Despite me not taking as much part as I'd have liked to, I agree with Meganium! The Skype event was run well and smoothly during the times I was there.

Nimblethumbs January 5th, 2011 6:40 PM

Well, schools started for me x( darn middle school. Im just waiting up for the gp event.

Are they doing the emblems then closing the New Years Extravaganza sub forum :)

AshPikastar January 6th, 2011 11:29 AM

I actually like this thread. It'll be sad once this thread closes.

Aquacorde January 6th, 2011 7:02 PM

It's a nice thread. Rather quiet compared to the Haunt one I think, but that was nice anyway.

moments. January 6th, 2011 7:59 PM

I also like this thread. It is nice to have sometimes 2 topics going at once by using both this thread and the normal Chat thread.

Aquacorde January 6th, 2011 8:00 PM

I think TCTI is used for that sometimes.

moments. January 6th, 2011 8:07 PM

Yeah that's true.
I only occasionally drop into OT soo...

Regeneration January 6th, 2011 8:46 PM

But I dislike it when I have no idea what the others are talking about in DCC. XD;;

Aquacorde January 6th, 2011 8:55 PM

The DCC and TCTI are not my cup of lemon frosting. I feel better in Shipping Debates, actually.

Regeneration January 6th, 2011 9:14 PM

Shipping debates? Mysteryeggshipping ftw!

I've been noticing it since the last shipping debates thread that you guys talk everything other than shipping in that thread. xD The trend changes with the new shipping debates thread though. xD

Aquacorde January 6th, 2011 9:16 PM

Heh, don't say "you guys" as if I've been there a long time. I first posted there about a page before you did.

Regeneration January 6th, 2011 9:25 PM

o.o
Really? You mean my old account, do you?

Okay~ I won't say 'you guys'. I'd rather say everybody. Happy? :P
We need a sub-forum for Shipping stuff!

Aquacorde January 6th, 2011 9:29 PM

Yes I do.

Idk about a shipping sub-forum. In some ways I think it would be good because it could draw more people to it than a tiny, condensed thread. But I also think it would get messy. Most threads that would be created in such a sub-forum have been ending up in Pokemon Groups- the PokeShipping Club and the NegaiShipping Club I think are two in PG.

Regeneration January 6th, 2011 9:34 PM

But those shipping groups are pretty dead anyway.
Serebii and Bulbagarden forums have a Shipping sub-forum too, so why not us? We should bring this up in the CQ&F. :>
Somebody get that AK-47 here right now.

Aquacorde January 6th, 2011 9:35 PM

We did ask once a few months ago, I'm sure of it. But I would be in favor of trying the idea.

Her January 6th, 2011 9:36 PM

so this is the thread sapping the DCC

BANISH, FOUL DEMON

Aquacorde January 6th, 2011 9:38 PM

Nuuu I like it up here by my NU/W.

Regeneration January 6th, 2011 9:39 PM

We should bring it up again. xD We have more of a support base right now. But I think doing something like that would drop activity in any general Shipping debates thread because each ship would have it's individual thread. =( Bah. But who cares?

Maraala January 6th, 2011 9:40 PM

Pffft I'm thinking about joining everybody in the Shippin Debates

I can't think of many recent ideas that weren't rejected in cq&f, so. I think the shipping debates thread covers it anyway, it's not that active to need a forum. 20 posts max in two days does not need a forum.

Aquacorde January 6th, 2011 9:43 PM

But see, the reason it has 20 posts max in two days is because it's such a small thing. If it were to expand, I'm sure the subject would be more attractive, especially with Best Wishes coming out soonish.

Regeneration January 6th, 2011 9:44 PM

Neekah you heart breaker! :< We can still try though. The main reason why we don't have much of an activity in the Shipping Debates thread is because of all the clutter. If we get it more orgainised, it would boost activity.

EDIT: See? TSO and I think the same. xD

Aquacorde January 6th, 2011 9:47 PM

The more I think about this, the more I support it. The Anime section needs a boost, and I think a Shipping forum may attract more people to the subject matter.

Regeneration January 6th, 2011 9:48 PM

I support it too.
Kay. This is final. We are bringing this up in CQ&F. :D
Time to gather support! lalala~

Ho-Oh January 6th, 2011 9:48 PM

There's...what, less than 10 regulars currently? I think you should increase the number of regulars to the thread before you consider a subforum otherwise it'll just end up dying. :(

Regeneration January 6th, 2011 9:51 PM

Boo..
I'm saying this again, the main reason people abstain from posting in the Shipping debates is because of lack of orgainisation. Half the time, even I am clueless as to what is being discussed. =(
If all the Pokemon Anime regulars start posting in a Shipping sub-forum, we will have a lot more activity.

moments. January 6th, 2011 9:51 PM

What even are shipping debates?

Aquacorde January 6th, 2011 9:53 PM

And again, the reason for the lack of regulars is because it's so condensed. It's a bit like the TCTI debate; people feeling intimidated by the regular posters, thinking of them as elite? Probably people don't think we're elite, but when it's just four people posting on the last three pages, it's a bit awkward to step in.

@moments. The debating thread in Pokemon Anime about couples in Pokemon.

Visit this thread to know what it is. xD

moments. January 6th, 2011 9:55 PM

I thought it was.

Is that a serious enough topic to build enough people to even consider a sub forum?

Her January 6th, 2011 9:56 PM

aren't shipping debates when people argue over which characters should be together or something

sorry, the anime section lost me a while ago

Aquacorde January 6th, 2011 9:57 PM

@moments. Oh yes. It completely is. Serebii and BMGf both have pretty active Shipping sub-forums. I've actually been going there for Shipping more so than here because I like how they lay it out.

@Harlequin Yeah, pretty much.

Ho-Oh January 6th, 2011 9:57 PM

Take into consideration that this potential shipping debates forum would actually be in Pokemon General - because there are shippings regarding Pokemon manga.

Regeneration January 6th, 2011 9:58 PM

Yes, it is a serious matter with dead serious debates (barfights, according to ak47). If someone has the time to go through the past shipping debates threads, well...

Aquacorde January 6th, 2011 9:59 PM

@Forever I don't see it working well there, though. The main and majority of ships are definitely anime-centric.

It's not like it would be a full forum of debating, more like a forum where people can talk about shippings in a more orderly manner. Not necessarily debating all the time.

Her January 6th, 2011 10:00 PM

seems like a blatant rehash of fanfiction.com

Regeneration January 6th, 2011 10:02 PM

Pretty much agreed with TSO. You know what? The manga shipping debates were all once merged with the Shipping debates thread in Pokemon Anime section. Now look what happened to them once they broke off: A four month old thread with 27 replies and the last post being of somewhere in October. We are far better off.
