YOU'RE UNGODLY TARA. YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED.

Ok it's off to Canada later as Plan B for the Zombie Apocalypse next Friday!

Also just wanted to leave this here before I go:

Thanks to some guy on fringe, I managed to make a tag totally different from my usual stuff. Current signature is all thanks to his words "Derozio, your works are far too generic, imo". :p

alisaie December 13th, 2012 5:30 AM

nononono I'll try spriting again! ... just not sure about animating a sprite again ffff.

and pfft. well it looks far better than what i can do.

Weeaboo Name December 13th, 2012 6:33 AM

I've listened to the same song 5 times in a row now. Whoops.

alisaie December 13th, 2012 6:52 AM

6.

Sometimes I will listen to the same song for hours because I will have completely forgotten that I was listening to it.

Pokestick, good times. December 13th, 2012 7:07 AM

I tend to get sick of listening to the same thing over and over. Wish I didn't. D:

THAT THEME SURE IS LOCO LAPPY.

alisaie December 13th, 2012 7:08 AM

8.

Depending on the song i can get tired of it after a few rounds or go a long time before getting tired of it. Also depending on the mood I am and it helps if it's something related to what I am enjoying the most at the time.

Weeaboo Name December 13th, 2012 7:11 AM

I'm usually the same as Poke with music it seems. It always annoyed the hell out of me when my mother and sister had stuff on repeat.

Apparently they're animating Koko's real loco moment, can't wait for my marathon in a couple of weeks.

alisaie December 14th, 2012 11:03 AM

10.

I'm usually bothered by my sister's music when she has something on repeat because it's probably something I don't want to listen to. But I'm sure that's the same for my sister when I play music on repeat as well.

Twilight-kun December 14th, 2012 11:06 AM

11

it all depends on the song I'm listening to
I can listen to Oppa Byuntae style many times, but Gangnam style only once

alisaie December 14th, 2012 11:15 AM

12.

I don't think there has really been a time when I heard Gangnam style more than once in a row either. Not that I recall.

Pokestick, good times. December 14th, 2012 11:36 AM

13

Dropped Jormungand during season one actually. Just didn't really engage me at the time :V
...Actually, maybe I've already said that. Can't tell.

Weeaboo Name December 14th, 2012 7:33 PM

14

Characters alone put Jormungand near the top of my anime of the year contenders. Only Nichibros, Jazz and Drool get close.

Hikamaru December 14th, 2012 7:59 PM

15

Gangnam Style totally grew onto me.

Weeaboo Name December 14th, 2012 9:09 PM

16

Considering you had a set of it months ago I presume you mean "it grew on me months ago".

machomuu December 14th, 2012 9:29 PM

17

Crap, it's been too long since I've been here. I presume Hikari's changed her his her his her avatar and signature at least 10 times since I was last here.

Correspondence December 14th, 2012 10:49 PM

18

Its more like 30 times.

Fenice December 14th, 2012 11:54 PM

19. Because I decided to temporarily come back from my hiatus due to the start of my first semester of uni :3

Oh yes I did, and I just did it again!

And I notice how confused you were at my "gender".

machomuu December 15th, 2012 1:51 AM

21

I've come to the conclusion that you have no set gender and you just switch between them like they're clothes.

You have awesome powers and I envy you.

Weeaboo Name December 15th, 2012 4:33 AM

22

I sold my 3ds even though I only purchased it 6 months ago. Got 2/3 of my money back so I guess I'm happy.

Pokestick, good times. December 15th, 2012 5:03 AM

23

You should learn to download your 3DS from the pirate bay next time.

Yes, I do have awesome powers... the power of confusion and hypnotism.

Volcanix769 December 15th, 2012 6:00 AM

25

It makes it harder to tell whether you are a human woman like you stated, an Oshawott named Hikari, or some random man that's in your theme.

Hikamaru December 15th, 2012 6:03 AM

26

My avatars/sigs are soooooooooo random... they are flawless.

And yeah, suspecting about why I'm "offline"?

Pokestick, good times. December 15th, 2012 6:08 AM

27

I'm not even going to comment. :I

derozio December 15th, 2012 6:37 AM

Pokey's theme is so good I don't feel tired of looking at it. :3

28

Hikamaru December 15th, 2012 6:41 AM

29

Yeah, it's a nice one given that Mei/Rosa is one of my fave Pokemon game protagonists, along with Hikari/Dawn and Touko/Hilda.

Correspondence December 15th, 2012 7:47 AM

30

And its good that Protagonists from Gen V aren't ten year olds.

Pokestick, good times. December 15th, 2012 8:08 AM

31

They don't really look that much older than previous protags, still.

machomuu December 15th, 2012 9:24 AM

32

It's pretty easy to tell that they're older by comparison, though. I really like their designs, too; especially the ones from BW.

It's too bad about the names, though.

Twilight-kun December 15th, 2012 10:31 AM

33

and that is why I called the Touko/Touya and Mei/Kyuohei

does suck you can't rename Cheren and Bianca though, which then could be transferred to B2W2 via Memory Link

Pokestick, good times. December 15th, 2012 10:38 AM

34

They're prominent so early in the game though, so Memory Link changing their names would just be confusing. :P

Correspondence December 15th, 2012 10:39 AM

35

I think Bianca and Cheren mean Black and White in some other languages so it sort of fits.

Pokestick, good times. December 15th, 2012 10:41 AM

36

Pokémon tends to do that with names.

Arma December 15th, 2012 10:44 AM

37.

Well, I'm pretty sure Bianca means white (that or it's derived from it), but I don't really see a link between Cheren and Black.

derozio December 15th, 2012 10:47 AM

I like dem bewbs.

/totally random cuz not familiar with bw stuff

38

Lateon December 15th, 2012 11:07 AM

39

I'm not terribly familiar with name origins in pokemon, so I'm going to throw in that Cheren/Bianca probably have something to do with the colors Black/White because it makes sense. I'll google it if I have time later.

Pokestick, good times. December 15th, 2012 11:17 AM

39

I have to agree.
Bewbs can be quite enjoyable.

Twilight-kun December 15th, 2012 12:15 PM

40

Cheren is derived from the bulgarian word for Black and Bianca is White in Italian
meanwhile Touya and Toukos's english names are derived from Germanic "hild" which means to fight

Ooh, I like Rosa and Nate, means to resonate, or echo (Their Japanese names, Kyohei and Mei share this trait, since they're derived from kyōmei)

Pokestick, good times. December 15th, 2012 12:35 PM

41

Shame Hilbert and Hilda fit so badly in BW's setting, and are pretty dull-sounding names in general.

Nate is a really good name IMO. It fits well.

Rosa... I would probably like, if I wasn't Swedish. Here Rosa is a common nickname for cows, hahaha.

Twilight-kun December 15th, 2012 12:44 PM

42

[something perverted about milking Rosa here]

and that is why I name her Mei, although Echo is a cute name too

stupid dA
STOP BANNING ME FOR NO REASON

Lateon December 15th, 2012 12:46 PM

43

What was their reason for banning you? I didn't realize that you could get banned from dA.

Pokestick, good times. December 15th, 2012 12:48 PM

44

I named her Mei too. :3
Also, rereading PokeSpe. I forgot like, 80% of all this stuff!

machomuu December 15th, 2012 1:05 PM

44

The only names that I don't like are Hilda and Hilbert, I have no idea what they were thinking. Nothing against people who are actually named Hilda or Hilbert, but the names are just so out of place here.

Lateon December 15th, 2012 1:16 PM

45

Hilbert and Hilda are out of place anywhere, really. I don't think I have ever heard of those names until the release of B/W

Twilight-kun December 15th, 2012 2:52 PM

46

One of the main challenges for english localization is choosing player names that have the same/similar meaning as their Japanese counterparts

Pokestick, good times. December 15th, 2012 2:52 PM

47

English localization from Japanese is hard to begin with, because of the cultural differences.
So much dialogue has to be partially rewritten to make more sense to western kids.


In other news, managed to manually up Borderlands' FOV from 70 to 110.

An enjoyable game just became even more enjoyable.

Twilight-kun December 15th, 2012 3:17 PM

"So you're the one my Lord N is in love with" becomes "So you're the one my Lord N is worried about"

hmph...

48

Pokestick, good times. December 15th, 2012 3:25 PM

49

Was that an actual line though?
Because googling the phrase only gets me to this forum thread. :P

Lateon December 15th, 2012 3:26 PM

49

Hey, nobody said the translations had to make sense! I wish a lot of the Japanese content moved over into the western adaptions.

The names Hilbert and Hilda derive from the term hild, which means "battle".

In fact, Hilda was also Maylene's name in the German version of the games. It literally means "battle woman".

Pokemon always tends to have a theme when naming the protagonists of a game.

D/P/Pt's Lucas and Dawn's names both have something to do with light, while B2/W2's Nate and Rosa, when combined, sounds like "resonate".

machomuu December 15th, 2012 4:23 PM

51

Just noticed that Rosa looks like Princess Leia a little bit. I get it, Pokemon is an alternate universe of Star Wars created by Palkia when he was contracted by George Lucas. It all makes sense!

I did know that their names had meaning dealing with various facets of the game (or just have general themes), but I guess what I mean by "Out of Place" is that they don't really seem to fit the characters. The last thing I'd ever think to call those two are "Hilda" and "Hilbert".

Pokestick, good times. December 15th, 2012 4:32 PM

52

@Hikari Most of that was already mentioned quite recently on this very page. :P

Yeah, I agree, in such a futuristic and urban setting, I had hoped for some more "hip" names.

machomuu December 15th, 2012 5:25 PM

53

Speaking of fifth generation, if N had kids, what would he name them?

Pokestick, good times. December 15th, 2012 5:35 PM

54

Something else classical music-inspired and even more nonsensical.
Of course he'll never have kids, because he's an antisocial manchild who cares more about magic and prophesies than his own existence, and probably believes babies are made by hugging. :3

Which is cool.

Hikamaru December 15th, 2012 5:41 PM

55

This whole "world ending" on the 21st is all just a big joke.

Weeaboo Name December 16th, 2012 1:43 AM

Just moments ago I was naked and sodden.

Hikamaru December 16th, 2012 3:07 AM

57

And again I find myself not talking a lot...

Pokestick, good times. December 16th, 2012 3:17 AM

58

If this is you not talking a lot I don't know what you would consider actually talking a lot. Hahaha.

Hikamaru December 16th, 2012 3:18 AM

59

I mean, not many people to VM right now.

Weeaboo Name December 16th, 2012 3:28 AM

60

Can't say I talk to PC people too much, just you guys and CarefulWetPaint on MAL. Seems the clubs are all on the verge of death and JE is like a graveyard.

Hikamaru December 16th, 2012 3:32 AM

61

Yeah, but the real graveyard on PC is Tabletop Games. I hardly see any active posters there.

I mean, the two boards Digi-kun mods really are the most inactive.

Weeaboo Name December 16th, 2012 3:35 AM

62

Can't blame him though, the likes of Chairman Kaga and Charry seem to have just moved on. It happens.

Hikamaru December 16th, 2012 3:37 AM

63

I think I remember Chairman Kaga, he was a former s-mod here if I can recall.

Pokestick, good times. December 16th, 2012 3:41 AM

61

I guess those are very user-specific forums. They don't really get many new visitors. So when the inevitable "ok to hell with this I'm leaving" happen, the places just get emptier.

Not sure if that's a good or a bad thing.

Hikamaru December 16th, 2012 3:44 AM

62

Yeah, and most newbies these days only join for battles/trades or the creative stuff like roleplays, art and hacks.

I had to greet a hell-load of ROM hackers today in NU/W.

Pokestick, good times. December 16th, 2012 4:01 AM

63

These days?
Pretty sure that's always been the case. o3o

Most people seem to join this site for the Emulation part. I did.

Weeaboo Name December 16th, 2012 4:02 AM

64

Yup, I joined for hacks but quickly fell to the lower boards.

Hikamaru December 16th, 2012 4:20 AM

65

Yeah, it's almost always the hacks.

MidnightShine rarely greets the hackers anymore.

Volcanix769 December 16th, 2012 5:19 AM

66

I can't believe that some joined here for ROM Hacking when they don't try to make friends with others when they first join.......

Hikamaru December 16th, 2012 5:25 AM

67

I initially joined for the Pokemon gaming boards, which I am still posting in... despite me branching out into the trivia boards, Pokemon Clubs, Other Voting Polls and New Users/Welcome.

So yeah, call me multi-talented!

Ultraviolence December 16th, 2012 5:26 AM

68

I joined for the art boards at first. Now I completely avoid them, and tend to mill around the off topic boards more.

Weeaboo Name December 16th, 2012 5:27 AM

68

I'm still not trying to make friends.

Hikamaru December 16th, 2012 5:28 AM

69

I usually make friends, but I only keep the active ones on my list.

Ultraviolence December 16th, 2012 5:30 AM

71

I've lost many friends by being inactive and them basically leaving PC, it's sad.

Hikamaru December 16th, 2012 5:35 AM

72

Yeah, and despite having 7 pairs, one of them hasn't been on for a month now, like he's almost forgotten me.

I chatted with him a lot before he went away due to studies.

Seki December 16th, 2012 5:35 AM

72

I have so little friends here :(, considering I didn't join because of hacks, I joined because I joined...

Hikamaru December 16th, 2012 5:39 AM

73

I managed to make friends a lot despite not being a hacker.

Ultraviolence December 16th, 2012 5:43 AM

74

I'm surprised that anyone talked to me when I first joined. I was sat reading my posts from when I joined last night, I wanted to cry at most of them.

Seki December 16th, 2012 5:50 AM

75

At least you have friends, I.. on the other hand, have a few chat buddies, but I believe its all part to my shy personality.

Hikamaru December 16th, 2012 6:15 AM

76

I have to go and get my beauty sleep, bye for now.

Correspondence December 16th, 2012 6:44 AM

Au revoir mon cheri.

On topic i also joined PC to play the hacks but have drifted to other sections too.

The_Consumer December 16th, 2012 9:24 AM

78

I dunno, am I doing this right..?

Pokestick, good times. December 16th, 2012 9:52 AM

Had a song stuck in my head all day and finally remembered what it was.
Spoiler:

Twilight-kun December 16th, 2012 11:17 AM

81

I got that "you're the one Lord N is in love with" line from playing a Japanese Black/White rom that had been translated to english (a lot faster then B2W2, I might add) before the American release

*shrugs* wish I still had it, probably wouldn't be able to find the original japanese-translated-to-english version though, all I'd get were actual english roms, gragh

Cosmotone8 December 16th, 2012 11:23 AM

Yay, 20,000th post here. :D
82

Twilight-kun December 16th, 2012 12:05 PM

Is it bad I have some sense of godessness for having made the 20,000th post?

Cosmotone8 December 16th, 2012 12:15 PM

No, I don't think so at least. xD All hail twilight kun, lol. 84

Twilight-kun December 16th, 2012 12:24 PM

I never knew it was that long.

Pokestick, good times. December 16th, 2012 12:42 PM

Considering how this is the 4th thread, the game has been going on for more than four times that, though. :3

Hikamaru December 16th, 2012 12:46 PM

If you feel dry, chances are it's dehydration. :D
