I dunno if any of you guys are current watching Erased (started airing in the beginning of January), but I just started it and this show looks insane.

Is there some Super Smash Bros players here? I just made the most epic shit of my life
February 18, 2016 12:40 p.m.
I think i listened to the end like fifteen times. I'm gonna start calling Villager Le Villageois from now on.

I only play the 64 version of smash bros. It is one of the only video games I have played. I am not good at them.

kyuuri117 yeah, it sounds like it's some kind of fair in French xP
Best fighting game evah, it allows so many stupid stuff to be done...
By the way guys, can you please upvote me here? I'd really like to be featured on one of Alpharad's videos, this guy cracks me up every time x)

I haven't played in a long while but I used to be low-tournament level in P:M and in Melee. I've gotten to the point where I never lose to people I randomly meet.

I'm almost at that kind of level in smash 4, but there's quite a number of skilled players on the ladder! It's the only game I allow myself to play after all (because of my lack of free time x))

Yeah, but I've also been involved in the community for quite some time. I fist got into it when Brawl came out. The game was rather meh, so I began modding the game quite heavily. At one point, I think I had something like 70 unique mods I had created myself. As a result, I picked up on Project M before it had launched its first demo. This was something like 2011. I've been playing that mod forever. It used to be this cancer-stricken abandoned baby. It's still not perfect, but it's the best smash game by a long shot.

Yesterday I talked about buying that Underground Sea for $270. It's almost $350 now. #ezmoneh

so I was trying to fidn that song where it goes "oh oh oh ay oh ay oh oh ay oh"
(if you know what I'm talking about, plz help, couldn't find it)
but I found this little treasure while looking around and I doubt any of you have heard it before, so idk, take a look.

I play just about every fighting game there is, and Smash is no exception. I'm trash at Melee and PM, so I stick with 4. I'm a Cloud main.
Also, does anyone here compete in FTC/FRC? Curious because I just joined an FTC team.

I do the FRC 6tennis. We start competing next week for the 6 weeks of qualifying for national. I personally enjoy it a lot.
Are you a mentor or a student? I can answer most questions you have if you have any.

ThisIsBullshit says... #17
I did FRC for two years, team captain for one, quit because our team was garbage and never got anything done until the day before the competition. But I can certainly answer questions.

filledelanuit says... #18
I do FRC for coding. We have about 15 people buy we're completely overwhelmed.

We were great with about 20 people, once we got bigger there were just too many people.

Wow...
My team is 17 years old and 40+ people. We run really well because we have been that way for a while. I am on design and programming, though I usually end up being the handy man who fixes shit when stuff breaks.

@TheNextRedDude no, it was a song from the 80s if that would help
If I could sing it, I'm sure you'd all know it right away.

I've been the head of software on my FRC and FTC teams for the past three years. The team is 5 years old, and we perform fairly well at competitions.

Crunched some numbers today. Looks like i won't be playing mtg until SOI drops. My budget for the next month:
Total average check: 450
$350 : savings acount
50-75: Food
Rest: taxi/snack money
February 19, 2016 8:36 p.m.
Yeah. I'm in a similar point. The Underground sea I bought on impulse plus the $120 that I spent to buy the things I needed to start altering cards ran me back some. Now I'm thinking about April's rent... Luckily I got March covered already, but damn. I'd like to buy a box of eternal masters, but I'm skeptical.

I'm just waiting for my injury payment to come in. That should get me an EMA box and legacy D&T but until then I'm a high schooler with no regular income :P

filledelanuit says... #31
Me too. I'm getting pretty close to finishing DDFT but I'll have to win the tops with store credit as I can't afford them. I've got like five leads on paid internships but no one them start until this summer so I'll be selling pizza for a few months.

Ok, let me rephrase my question. What are FRC and FTC?
February 20, 2016 10:19 a.m.
ThisIsBullshit says... #34
FRC and FTC stand for FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Robotics Competition and FIRST Tech Challenge.
FRC is oriented towards high schoolers, and I believe FTC geared towards middle/elementary school.

I like Perfect Cherry Blossom & Scarlet Weather Rhapsody is my shit!
Huge Danmaku fan as a whole. Own all the Cave ports on 360. I know most people don't pick up on it but the DOJ in my name stands for Dai-Ou-Jou.
Love DoDonPachi, Espgaluda, & Mushihimesama series.

Anybody seen any good action flicks?
Last few I've seen, Momentum & Equalizer were really good, looking for stuff along those lines.

I think it's because I've been through a lot over a short time.

Mountain of Faith's my favorite. Haven't explored the genre past Touhou.
My friend's dad's friend started playing during revised. He's getting married now and he hasn't played for a LONG ASS time. He had no idea of the worth of his collection, but he had heard that our group was very knowledgeable about magic. He brings back 6 cardboard boxes of old ass cards the other day. Shit had tons of mint condition duals and crap. The guy had tons of birds, bolts, lords of atlantis, racks, elemental blasts, demonic tutors, stasis, animate dead, libraries, meekstones, mana vaults, etc. He's selling all that crap. All of it is NM or has minor bending. It felt unreal going through that box. This guy just thought he'd maybe get some extra bucks to help pay for his wedding. Nah mate. Nah...

So I guess they can have their honeymoon to Jamaca now?
February 20, 2016 9:08 p.m.
Pretty much, yeah. That's actually how I got the underground sea I mentioned earlier.

Every day i work this shit job i feel my sanity slip deeper and deeper into the land of no fucks given. Some people deserve a kick to the jaw for this shit.
Overscheduling the back room by 500 hrs means not only are everyone else's hrs cut, but I'm forced to do 2-3 different positions at once.
