  1. It's chaos right now, and Boston has shut down most vectors of communication to stop any more remote detonation. I don't think we'll have any reliable info until the dust settles.

    I prefer 4chan, of course. Look at /vp/ and r/pokemon and you'll know why. That said, I think Reddit's salvageable. Much like people were saying in the 4chan thread, it depends on where in the site you go. It's necessary to unsubscribe to almost all of the default stuff, otherwise, meems and circlejerks ahoy. The format leads to some horrific stuff, edgy ratheists probably being the worst of it. But, I would contend that the format works just fine for places like /r/AskHistorians. Good academic-style writing floats to the top, and the terrific mod team deletes drivel quickly and efficiently. You see a bit of repetition in terms of the questions being asked, but I can get over that.

  5. [quote name='MDE' timestamp='1365632492' post='277597'] You can be named "Phaggot" for all I care. I have no business remembering the names of nobodies. The staff have clearly seen the thread since they cited what exactly was getting posted in here. [/quote] Being needlessly belligerent to each other is irrelevant to this discussion. Lay off, or take it to PMs, both of you.
  6. [quote name='Plague' timestamp='1365631520' post='277568'] One of these things does not actually involve a pokemon. Leveling up a pokemon. Catching a pokemon. "Playing" a slot machine. Can you guess which one it is? [/quote] protip: the correct answer rewards you with this [spoiler][img]http://ebiz247.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/arthritis-hand-300x240.jpg[/img][/spoiler]
  7. Honestly, the fact that I'd have to spend 20 hours pressing the Z button to remain competitive is the main reason I don't play PokeMMO anymore (well, that and the fact that my internet is practically powered by a hand crank). There's only so much carpal tunnel I'm willing to endure for the sake of something ostensibly "fun." EVing and IV searching may be 'grinding,' but at least it's playing Pokemon, which is, y'know, what I came here to do. As for Munya and the others who have already put in their time at the GC, I have total respect and sympathy. You have way more balls and/or autism than me. But I beg of you, don't put the rest of us through a punishment befitting a Greek myth just because you've already suffered it.

  10. I'm kinda excited. If it's a new Pokemon, and not just a new form, we may get an expansion of that sparse, but actually really well done Mewtwo storyline from the Gen 1 games. It looks only alright to me, but I think that's mostly because I'm comparing it to what I think is one of Pokemon's best designs. On a side note, I continue to be impressed by the game's animation style. I know that I'll eventually turn off battle animations to speed things up, but with how cinematic it all looks, I can see myself keeping it on for much longer than usual.
  11. ^ Word. If I start thinking storyline things, should there be a general framework? Or are we in a more sandbox stage?
  12. I might be interested in helping with the story and such. I have XP and Pokemon Essentials, but haven't done more than fiddle with them. Regardless, good luck with it, looking forward to seeing how it progresses! [spoiler]Also, I am so down with Professor Hemlock[/spoiler]
  13. Yeah, episode one was just getting everyone back on track. Hopefully we'll see some plot soon; the third book was, in a lot of ways, the peak of the series. That being said, they're apparently only doing the first half of the book this season, soooo... [spoiler]seriously lotta spoilers[spoiler]not for all you non-book reading scrubs[spoiler]What are they even going to include this season? Pretty much everything interesting happens in the second half. My guess is that it'll end with the Red Wedding, since that was closer to the halfway point, which will still be pretty clutch. But I doubt we'll get to, say, Tyrion going apeshit murdery. Speaking of which, I'm really curious to see if they go whole hog with it; Tyrion's been presented as a much gentler, positive character than he was in the books (partly just cause it's hard not to like Dinklage), so it'll be pretty jarring for all the Tyrion fanbois.[/spoiler][/spoiler][/spoiler]
  14. help I'm bleeding out, I got cut on all this #edgy
  15. Honestly, the only threatening thing North Korea can do would be to collapse. On the one hand, yay, no more North Korea. On the other hand, international free-for-all for who can find their nuclear weapons first amidst the resulting chaos. That free-for-all could include a lot of not-so-friendly factions, including: -Belligerent NK loyalists -Terrorist groups -Who the fuck knows
