Since I don't have Portal 2, I am going back and playing a classic that I missed. [b]Mario Paint[/b] is definitely a simple game, really it is just a coloring book, soundboard, and pack of sticky notes that you can use to make crude animations. That being said if you have the tiniest creative bone in your body (and the ability to read music like myself) you can make some amazing stuff. I have already stayed up till 5am making songs, as well as colored the sky full of raindrops, and making a rainbow colored Yoshi. I can't get past the freaking pink room in the fly swatting game,

For the most part it is really light hearted humor, but thing that sells it for me is the voice acting for the english dub. For one, the protagonist schoolgirl doesn't have the super high pitched, ultra kawaii voice, which was refreshing. The cast included Anne Hathaway as Haru, as well as Cary Elwes, Judy Greer, Andy Richter, Kristen Bell, my personal favorite: Tim Curry, and more. All the jokes are delivered remarkably well, and every character seems to have personality. As for the plot, it is fairly well put together. The story has for the most part, a constantly escalating feeling, but I wouldn't say that it is super suspenseful. There is pretty much no love story, which is also refreshing. There is some action... but it is with cats, so that becomes more humorous than intense. The movie also has a decent moral too... which doesn't matter much... but hey.. its there! The art is also a step above most of what I have seen from Studio Ghibli, the motions are fluid and the scenery is vibrant. the colors in this one are also very vivid compared to a few movies I have watched. The expressions like all of Ghibli films are awesome, even on cats. Anyone else with me here?

I think a slightly better advanced search would be helpful. My only real issue is with all three letter words being banned, it gets difficult to find things. If I was looking for The Cat in The Hat for instance, It would be impossible. Perhapse words like "a", "An", "and", "the", "to" and other simple words would clog up results, but I think those should be individually banned. If time was taken to ban those individual words, searching could be much more effective, especially searching with quotes since the word phrases need to be exact.

I hope Ol' Fighter comes back eventually.. I was counting on him beating Morbo.

My addiction is Funny Bunny, but The Pillows are awesome all around. Mario Paint seems to have kept me up all night... at least I got some laundry done too....

From start to finish about an hour and forty minutes. I was definitely captivated the whole time too.

[b]Name: [/b][font="Courier New"][size="3"]Joshua Rodriguez [/size][/font] [b] Age: [/b][font="Courier New"]26[/font] ( entered the family just this year.) [b] Sex: [/b][font="Courier New"]M[/font]ale [b] Family:[/b] [b]Maldito Family[/b] [b] Appearance: [attachment=15155:xxx.png] Personality: [/b][font="Courier New"]He is a very opinionated and defiant individual. He considers himself to be more than capable of doing anything by himself, and is angered when others help him when he thinks it is unessential. He is fairly intelligent, hard headed, and prideful to the point of narcissism. [/font] [b] Occupation: [/b][font="Courier New"]Full time college student, former marine holding the rank or Corporal. He also works at a local shooting range during the mornings. [/font] [b] Bio: [/b][font="Courier New"]Joshua was a typical problem child. He was loved by his entire family and was a pleasure to be around... until he turned eleven. What his parents called "peer pressure" shaped his behavior during those years, leading to drug use, bad grades and even promiscuity with classmates of both genders. He was sent off to boot camp to correct his "evil" ways, then eventually joined a real enlistment service since it offered him freedom from his family. The Military was not more accepting in general, but at least he could live on his own. The cost of this freedom was a trip overseas to Iraq where he was fought several armed insurrections. Bonding through the fear of death, as well as the heat of battle Joshua and a PVC: Matthiew Harper started seeing each other romantically, and eventually became very intimate. [/font][font="Courier New"] Several months later, Joshua was scheduled to take a task force into a suspicious house. He was forced to watch it for hours, waiting on the people inside to leave. After watching the door for four hours he began to see shadows running along the doors surface, as if portions of the wood had a slight grade of transparency. this continued for the next fifteen minutes. At that time the shadows were focused into shapes, then faces. He could eventually see the entire contents of the house when he stared at certain sections long enough. when he squinted his eyes, instead of losing vision he seemed to see a smaller portion of the world expanded, like in a telescope. only a low-opacity shell of a house hindered his vision of the situation. The entire place was full of suicide bombers, and the garage was packed with cars full of explosive equipment. He reported this to his superior officer, but was scalded for trying to encourage an assault without evidence. He did everything to con he could to convince him but never made any progress. fifteen minutes later two cars emerged. Joshua leapt into action sending rounds into the cars. He set off a chain reaction of explosions lighting up the sky and sending shrapnel everywhere including directly at him. He suffered minor injuries to most of his body, but lost his left arm. He was no longer fit from the service and retired at 25, receiving a few metals as well as a good scholarship to any school he is accepted in. Currently he is attending the university of Phoenix, and taking advantage of online courses. He had never thought of returning home, but when his parents died in a mysterious "accident" He Was contacted about his family heritage. In his parents will, details about the Maldito family, as well as an invitation fell into his hands. Having little better to do, he decided to find out about the ancient family history, and eventually became drawn into it himself. [/font][b]Abilities/Powers:[/b] [font="Courier New"]He has the ability to see exceptionally well, comparable to a telescopes range. He also has the ability to see light that is being obscured by solid objects, as well as immunity to bright lights. this means he can see through a wall if the lights are on on the other side, but not if they are off. He is also a fantastic shot, but because of his handicap he only can use low caliber pistols effectively. He is fantastic shape, and is intelligent enough to plan decent attack strategies, using military knowledge as well as natural talent.[/font] [b]Weaknesses: [/b][font="Courier New"]after the incident in Iraq, he has held contempt for any figure of authority. He can be hostile to anyone issuing him orders. His arm is a handicap that is hard to overcome. if forced into combat, he would be useless against any trained physical fighter, unless he was able to shoot them. [/font] Also as stated above, his eyes need light in order to see through objects, and if a wall is too thick (about half a meter) he won't be able to do it at all. Also he can only wield single handed weapons, and guns must have very low caliber in order to be accurate. [b]Weapons[/b]: [font="Courier New"]Has a licensed concealable Glock 17C with extended magazines. This extremely low recoil gun is perfect for someone who cannot use another hand for balance. He also carries a Military grade 50 x 50 pair of binoculars, since they exponentially increase his vision, and his power eyesight doesn't increase when he uses digital Zoom (he can only see pixels with those) [/font]

I will try to rework it. It was my own fault for not asking if you had a size preference (since I usually go for the biggest size possible by default) edit: How is this? I reduced the size a bit, but left the same overall style. [IMG]http://i619.photobucket.com/albums/tt278/PandasQ/Pumpy2.jpg[/IMG]

[center] [attachment=15154:yay.jpg] [/center] Okay so I just watched this the other day. It currently hasn't been released in English Dub as far as I know, but it is subtitled pretty well. If you are a fan of both shows like I am, you really must see this. The movie does a great job staying true to both shows. All of the characters seem to have retained their personality, as well as the flair and sense of humor in both shows. [spoiler] The only thing I didn't like was that the movie has VS in it... when they don't really "battle" [/spoiler] The art style seems to be more Case Closed than Lupin the 3rd... but they both look good. There really isn't much you won't like about this movie if you liked the two amazing animes that inspired it.

[quote name='Mage17' timestamp='1306946710' post='707757'] though 2 an 3 look like text titles from the castlvania games, haha. Thanks a lot for the modification :-D [/quote] Close, but not quite.... Mine are fancier. q:

At one point in time I had those Zelda figures... but now all I have is some run-down Gundam model kits and my Ho-oh figurine from Heartgold.

[quote name='Lawliet' timestamp='1306876271' post='707721'] So I realized lots of flaws with my team during the first round and I really want to fix them but it'd be against the rules. [/quote] Same here... I have been playing in the battle subway just to see if there are more problems that I should have caught and cannot change, d: Also, I kinda like having the chance to play everyone, and it really wouldn't be fair to eliminate people when certain types are going to have advantages over others. All things considered, I really like how things have been set up in this tournament so far.

Well, text isn't that hard for me so I did a bunch of them. Hopefully one of the four will be what you are looking for.

I don't normally tell everyone about my extremely nerdy activities. I would rather not have the stereotype plastered above my head on a first impression. The people who have taken the time to get to know me are well aware of how I spend my time, but random people that I may or may not have to be around in the future are introduced to my personality at start. When I think about it, having something in common with everyone really isn't that important. I liked Deathnote... but lock me in a room full of deathnote fans and I will probably smash my head against the walls until I pass out. Now if a person I enjoy talking to has a similar interest, it is a totally different story, since it enables us to simultaneously enjoy an activity. Basically, I think most of us have the same intentions, but I find that the amount of people that I share interests with is far greater than the amount of people I will enjoy being around, so I may as well look for the more desirable trait first.
