Imagine my surprise yesterday when I come home and discover that anotehr being has taken up residence there. Posted Image Meet Cooper, the 4 year old Golden Retriever. My dad actually told me about him coming here on Friday, and to be frank, I was totally against the idea. Why? I do not like dogs that much. I'm more a cat person (Upon saying I'm more a cat person, dad laughed seeing as my cat, Abbey, does not like me at all.) So, I'm at work, dreading returning home, since there was the anticipation that some four-legged beast is going to come in and try and remove my face with saliva. Strangely... I don't dislike this little guy. Know what, I'll give this one a chance =p. ------------------------------------------------- COMPLETELY Unrelated and in no way SFW. Ivor Biggun: Bras On 45 It's a sad day when I can identify a good chunk of the anime in this AMV: -Love hina -Grenadier -Jungle De Ikoku -Golden Boy (Hentai, I havn't seen it, but I recognize the art style) -Ranma 1/2 -Dragon Ball Z -Eiken |

Oh I believe it. Cooper's quite affectionate, and also one of the best behaved dogs I've ever seen. Heck, yesterday, when I got home from work, he did bark a bit at me cause I was a new face to him, but after that, he was quiet. I opened the door to my room, and yeah, he barged in, but it was only because it was a new place that he'd never seen. He trots in, sniffs about, doesn't disturb a thing (even with that tail waving around like crazy), and leaves after about 2 minutes of examining the half of my room that's traversable. Overall, he's a big goofy lump of fur, but know what? He's my big goofy lump of fur that gains my approval. |

I am officially considering Jay to be a good luck symbol :P While playing my new Pokemon game (Soul Silver), I ran into and caught Raikou Why is this such a feat? Well, let's look at what needs to be done normally to catch one of these things: Fact 1: They roam around the area, so when you enter a new route or a new city, Raikou will jump to another area. Using Fly to jump to a city is useless, as that causes them to completely randomize their location, while moving between two locations causes them to move one spot along. This puts your chances at running into them somewhere around 1/40. Fact 2: They run the moment you encounter them. If your guy moves first, he'll do his damage, and then they'll run. If you put them to sleep, once they wake up, they'll run. The only way that they will not run away, is if you've used a move like Mean Look, or another ability that prevents escape. Fact 3: All three of the Legendary Beasts - Entei, Raikou and Suicune, have a Catch rate of 3. Catch Rate is a number that is factored in every time you throw a Pokeball. It factors in: -The HP of the opponent -Whether the Opponent is afflicted by a special condition (Paralyze, Sleep, Burn, Poison) -The Catch Rate of the ball. -The Pokemon's Catch Rate. I don't know the exact equation, so let me use Layman's terms: A Catch Rate of Three means you're gonna have a LOT of trouble catching these things. I caught this thing, lobbing a Fast Ball (Adds extra oopmh if the Pokemon tries to run on the turn you use it) at it right off, when it had full health. IT ACTUALLY CAUGHT. To boot, this was the stage in the game when he, being level 40, is twelve levels higher than my party average He's in my Pokewalker now, taking a stroll with me :B |

Remember kids, you're not crazy for playing Magic: The Gathering. You're still not crazy when you buy 41 packs in one day. You're still not crazy when you squee with joy at the sight of pulling a Mythic Rare from a pack. You're also not crazy when you build three decks out of the cards, two of them being built within an hour of each other at work. But you're starting to dip a bit when you start naming your decks =p. Yes, I've dipped into MtG enough that, not only have I purchased a crapton of cards AND built three decks, but each one has a name to it, sorta representing what they do. (I'll make some images showing off what cards are in them later. You don't have to understand the game to find some of tehm pretty thankfully -cough-Angel of Despair-cough-) First up is Femme Fatales (White/Black). At first, it sounds like a gimmick deck - as I decided to make all the creature cards either: A: Depict a single, female character B: Depict a number of characters of any gender, so long as the focus is on a female. With the exception of four of the creatures (all Drudge Skeletons, which are just there for defense) all of these creatures do in fact fit the above criteria. But, just because the deck is all girl, that doesn't mean it's weak! By far, it's one of the stronger decks I built. The White Half focuses on strength, keeping me alive, and supplying my creatures , while the Black Half focuses on corruption, death, and killing the opponents without mercy. Baneslayer Angel and Liliana Vess are the major players here - Baneslayer with her holy strength and multiple attributes, and Liliana, with her incredible spells that cripple the opponent, or make me stronger. Personal rating - 5/5. Will learn of it's effectiveness against a real opponent on Friday. -------------- Next up is Crash 'n' Burn (Blue/Red). A tricky combination to pull off, as Red and Blue couldn't be more different. Red is a type that deals with a lot of instant damage and deals with powerful monsters (You'll find that the majority of Dragons are all red, or have at least a little bit of red in them). Blue, on the other hand, is the 'Oh god, piss off and leave me alone' colour, full of counters, bounce-backs, cheap fortifications, and good defense. Red is all about Offense. Blue is all about Defense. Put them together, and we get Crash 'n' Burn. A decent powerhouse, with defenses for both colours. the red half is mostly creatures - cheap ones like Raging Goblin or Jackal Familiar - with some nice powewrhouses as well. One of the signature creatures is Magma Phoenix, a creature that lets out a lovely explosion upon its death, dealing a nice little bit of damage to everyone. And, like an actual phoenix, for a small price, I can pull it from the graveyard. The blue half is where there are more spells than creatures, and many of them are to accomplish the same goal. You wanna summon a creature? Essence Scatter, it's dead. You wanna kill my creature with a spell? Negate, it's gone. You got a creature out on me? Unsummon, it's back in your hand. Or perhaps I feel like doing a few hits with magic rather than one? Well, that's where Time Warp and Twincast come in. Time Warp is a nifty little card that let's me pick a player, and say that after my turn, that player gets to take one. Twincast let's me cast a copy of any spell that's being played. Time Warp + Twincast = Two more turns after the current one for me. Overall, Crash 'n' Burn is a decent little scrambler, with power, speed, and annoyance - the three key things needed in a deck. THough with it being Red/Blue, few of the cards directly compliment each other, so it leads to some cards not being very interchangeable. Personal rating - 4/5 -------------------------- Lastly, we have Voice of the Forest (Solid Green). This was slightly tricky to build, as my mana supply (Forests) is actually under 20 - which is the recommended number of lands to have in a deck. I only have 18. And yet, this deck can hold its own. To combat the lack of land, there are spells to summon land, and creatures that can act as land (Llanowar elves can act as a forest basically. Birds of Paradise can act as any land, Sakura Tribe-Elder can be sacrificed to summon land) Of course, this is only one colour. Surely it can't hold a candle to the variety that Crash 'n' Burn and Femme Fatales can bring right? Wrong. I am scared at just how powerful this deck is. It's hard to stand strong when you have the might of a forest behind your assaults. Inlcluding a creature that turns a tree into a creature. The Trees are attacking. Plus, it has some scarily cheap enchantments that make creatures even stronger. Need a quick boost? Giant growth. Need a more permanent boost? Oaken Armour. Need everyone tto have a boost? Overrun. Need an army of wolves to filter out of the woods like so many jackrabbits? Howl of the Night Pack - summons one wolf for each forest out. HotNP + Overrun = Dead Opponents. A Very powerful deck, capable of holding itself steady in the face of those that would endanger Mother Nature. Personal rating - 5/5 |

Explains a lot doesn't it?

Never got so into Magic to put together a deck of my own, but I used to play by borrowing other players decks. Have to say, I like the older cards better then some of the new ones. iceage old one. My one friend had two decks that the only time they where ever beat was when they where played against each other. One was a nuke everything White/Green that had about a half dozen Armageddons in it. Lay it down mana goes bye bye. Have a Harvester Wyrm out, you recover faster then your opponent. The other... I don't remember that well. I think it was a pure black deck. Nasty bugger; played right you could buff the Nightmares to God like level, and have untold whachamacallthem tokens keeping everything humming along when sacrifices where required.. |

Solid Black decks are often nasty little buggers - those are the types of deck that make you kiss your creatures goodbye, while attacking with untold demons out of hell. |

It's been many many years since I played that game, but back when I did, I bought my packs of cards by the box, not by the individual pack. Spent untold countless dollars (and hours) on it, before I discovered internet chat as a low-cost escapism time-waster. |

So, I just found out a lovely little detail. One of the cards I pulled from that pack (which is one of my faves in terms of artwork), is not just a fancy schmancy Mythic Rare with a bunch of abilities. For those of you that don't know, this is the creature: Baneslayer Angel What did I find out? That this one card, is worth almost $50 USD. I am pleased. |

Maybe I'm just being weird, but I noticed something interesting while I was (in a fit of randomness) trying on my Suigintou outfit again. That outfit feels... well, different from the others that I have. Miles Edgeworth? I can walk around like I own the place. Xion? When I have my keyboard, I'll be ready for battle all the time. Soubi? Even with the coat that'll likely be a size or two too small, I'll still have fun with it. Suigintou is... different. I partially blame the make of the costume for this, but it causes an interesting effect. Because the measurements for the shirt and underskirt were probably off by about an inch, maybe more, this causes me to feel a tightness when I raise my arms to a certain height. Main reason - I don't want to strain the fabric and tear it. The boots are comfy and fit nice, but make an absolutely horrid noise when they scrape together. Walking in them becomes a bit tricky, as I need to keep my legs straight, and not knock them against each other. The last bit is the headband. In order to keep it on, becasue the ribbon doesn't hold worth crap, I cannot look up or down easily, and turning my head requires careful motions. So, to sum it up: -Limited arm movement -Stiff leg movement -Limited field of vision save for left-right motions. Did I just describe features a human being has, or features a doll has? |

Who said being nice doesn't pay off... Since my friend ended up getting rid of hers ages ago, I promised her the other night that I'd get her a new DS (Since I'm that nice) as well as throwing in my old EZ Flash V card and the GBA adapter for it (and a DS->USB Charger) She's giving me the entire box set of Excel Saga and a copy of Assasin's Creed for PC. The Assasin's Creed decision was made with a slight chuckle on my part. She had said very plainly 'My compy can't run it. Specs too insane' -two seconds of checking the specs later- 'Eh, Mine can.' ''S yours then =P' |
