I think the problem is most people only have experience with one version of the game so that's the one they're voting for.

Desmond is trying to get everyone in the alternate reality together in one place and Locke is trying to get everyone on the island together in one place.  Any guesses what happens when both succeed at the same time?  Crossed timelines?

Vudu, stop trying to stomp out what I do just because you were given mod permissions.  I brought you into this world...I can take you out!

Hey, now!  I'm just trying to do my part.  I may not be able to implement Facebook integration but I can help with password resets.  ;)

ViewtifulGamer?  WTF!

The first one had a problem with the GPU--it started to display graphical artifacts--and the second had a problem with the WiFi card.  No lightning/dropping required.

I've had TWO Wii systems break on me.

So far the threads we've seen this week aren't any better than those of last week.  The contest is a colossal failure.

I think we'd get better results if ShyGuy² added one of his patented EXTREME SANDWICHES as a prize.

DEMO GET!

(There's a very simple 6-puzzle demo on the Nintendo Channel.  It's way too easy, but it gives you a nice taste of the game to whet your appetite.)

You'd have to ask the staff member who locked it.

So I picked up AlphaBounce on KDR's recommendation.  It's fun!  It's also Infernal Monkey-approved so you know it's good!

You can probably get some money for it on Craigslist--I'm sure someone will want a broken PS3 for cheap.

New Poll is up.

Hey Bob, how about you leave the poll open for more than two fucking days next time?  I missed it completely because I don't visit this board too often on weekends.

1142
Mine is the only thread that has been locked by NWR staff so I think it's really the only one that counts.

I daresay that Death is almost impossible without Maria.

I beat Death with Richter.  It took me like ten tries, but I did it.  ;D

However, I had to use Maria for the boss rush in level 6.  I tried and tried and tried to beat it using Richter but couldn't get past the mummy.  Then I switched to Maria and beat the entire thing on my second try.  She really does break the game.

I'm up to Dracula now and I have no intention of even attempting to beat him with Richter.  It just seems too damn hard.

That's my exact problem.  Well, sorta.  The real problem is this happens with all RFN podcasts, so I have to restore my iPod every single week if I want to remove an episode after I've heard it.  It's annoying and time consuming.

After taking more than a month off from MM10 I finally came back to it this morning to beat the Wily stages.  I think this is easily the worst Wily castle ever.  The stages themselves weren't too bad but the bosses were pretty horrific--excluding the Crab boss.

The 3 bosses of the first stage were particularly bad.  Not only was the art design pretty bad but their weaknesses seem to be completely random--you're really gonna try to tell me that Wood Man's not weak against Wheel Cutter?!  Completely ridiculous.

The bosses seemed really hard for no reason other than for the sake of making you use E-tanks.  As Jonny mentioned before, the Devil in Wily stage 3 was truly evil and I think it's impossible to beat Wily's first form in the 4th Wily stage without taking damage.

After beating MM10 it really makes me want to go back and replay MM9--it's a much better game in my opinion.

Restoring my iPod clears my iPod's memory.

I'm sorry--I guess I don't understand the question; what does restoring my iPod have to do with my empty podcast section in my library?

me: But I can't remember how to write a capital G in cursive.

It sorta looks like a 2, right?

No wait, on second thought I'm pretty sure it's the capital Q that resembles a 2.

Well this is nice news. I figure that Gen V will be coming  out sometime in Nov-Dec. This would give everybody time to complete Heart Gold  and Soul Silver and transfer of all their pokemon over. If Gen V is on the DSi  than I am going to have to pick up a DSi. I need another DS that I can trade  with myself. I'm kinda wondering what they can do with the Legendarys. After  Arceus it is going to be hard to top that. Anybody got any ideas on possible  pre volutions/evolutions or maybe new pokemon? IVs are something that every  pokemon is hatched or caught with.Go check the summary of a pokemon.There is a  sentence down at the bottom on the page that has the nature all that other  info. This sentence determines how many IVs the pokemon in each stat. I think  that 40 IVs in each stat is the max on can get. I don't really worry about IVs  because it takes to long to get good IVs. I tend to just worry about the nature  and EVs I put into it. To much work otherwise. In the 4th Gen there was a new  move called Stealth Rock. It is a entry hazard much like Spikes and Toxic  Spikes. The move Stealth Rocks is a Rock type move. Being that stealth rock is  a rock type move. Bug,fire,flying and ice types has been used less because the  move is crippling. Say you have a Butterfree that enters the battle after that  teams first pokemon is lost. Since it is a bug/flying type it takes half of its  HP just switching in. Moltres has the same problem.Articuno same. Any flying  type that isn't one of the above types takes 25% of its health swiching in. Everybody  that isn't those types take normal damage.About as much as what leftovers can  recover. Typical Stealth rock users are Skarmary,Aerodactly  and Bronzong.  Skarmory is probably the best at its job since it can use Whirlwind which  forces the pokemon out and the pokemon coming in gets Stealth rock damage. So I  got my Spiky Ear Pichu. Naughty nature.Level 30. Volt tackle,Swagger,Helping  Hand and Pain Split. Still have the other Pichu as well.I am currently in Ilex  Forest. Beat the Normal Gym. My eevee hasn't evolved into Espeon yet. I will  give it some more haircuts in the next few days and check its happiness. It is  level 14 now. Espeon gets Confusion at level 15 so I have to get its Happiness  Max before it grows one more level. Well the first picture of a 5th Gen Pokemon  is up at Serebii.net It is a silhouette so all the details isn't there.   Full reveal should be next week. You know that Pichu that you can get at  Gamestop and off of Wi-Fi Connection? Well if you take that Pichu to the Ilex  Forest and check the shrine in the forest the Spiky Ear Pichu will come out of  hiding. and it will join your party.  The Spiky Ear Pichu on one ear is a  little spiky at the end. Well on Serebii.net the Silhouette Pokemon has been  revealed. Its name is Zoroark. It is a Dark type Pokemon. It has a  preevolution. That pokemons name is Zorua. Both are Dark types. Does someone  want to post the picture that is on Serebii.net? That would be nice of someone.  Well today I raised most of my team up to level 20. I got my eevee to evolve  into Espeon so my team is good to go now. I tried the Pokeathlon and it was  fun. I tried out the speed and power sections. I put Eevee in the speed portion  and I think it helped out with its happiness.  Anyway I think I have a tree blocking my way  that I need to catch. I will continue my playthrough in the morning. Red,Blue,Yellow,Silver,Crystal,Ruby,Saphire,FireRed,Platinum,SoulSilver.  Red and Yellow I can't find. Crystal I can't find. Ruby and Saphire I don't  have anymore. Have the rest mentioned. Yeah for my team against Clair I am  probably going to use Feralagator and Wishcash.  So I just beat Morty, Ghost Gym Leader. Most  of the Gym went down to Espeon and its confusion. I had Absol and Croconaw as  back ups. Croconaw had Bite and Absol had Pursut. With Absols sky high attack  and Pursuit being a Dark type physical atack well Gengar and the last Haunter  were no trouble. Hmm both are good. If you want to go in order of release than  I would go with either Heart Gold or soul silver. Since your last Pokemon was  Yellow the next games in the series was Silver and gold and Crystal. Than Ruby  and Sapphire and Emerald. Fire red and Leaf Green. Finally the 4th gen games.  Diamond, Pearl and Platinum. I got back into the series with Platinum. It is  pretty easy in my opinion. The only real trouble you would likely have is with  the Elite 4 in Platinum. Pearl and Diamond's Elite 4 I have heard is easier  than Platinum. So far I really am not having much trouble with Soul Silver.  Both the 4th gen games have access to the GTS which is a way to get pokemon  from around the world from people. The online is pretty identical between  Platinum and Heart Gold and Sould silver. I think there is like one or two  things that HG and SS have that Platinum doesn't have. Oh before I forget the  Special Pichu is going to stop at the end of tomorrow. It is being given via  Mystery Gift for Pearl,Diamond Platinum. Select Nintendo Wi-Fi connection. This  is for everybody that hasn't gotten the Pichu. Well I just beat Jasmine. Her Steelix  was a problem. 2 of my pokemons attacks weren't effective. My Espeon had Psycic  and normal attacks.So I used Espeon so I could revive my Sleeper Roselia. Absol  had Dark and normal attacks so I used Leer on Steelix to make my psysical  attacks more effective. My Monferno's Flame Wheel worked once it was range of  attack. I had Barbabroch to take on his Magnimite. Most of my team was in the  mid 20's I had a few that were level 23. Tough battle.Steelix was level 35 and  the Magnimites were level 30. Now all my pokemon I can raise to level 70 so I  will raise my team a bit more. Get everybody to evolve to their last evolution  except Roselia. Need to get the proper move set for it. Well I am currently in  Blackthorne City. I see that there is a Move tutor in town but I can't get the  move tutor to teach my pokemon moves. So what is the curency that I need to  give to get my pokemon the moves they need? Hmm I looked around and the person  that you are talking about makes the pokemon learn any moves that that it might  of not learned when leveling up. This can be helpful for some of my pokemon but  there is another move tutor that you have to give BP's to and you can purchase  different moves. Just beat Clair. I had problems with Gyarados and Kingdra. Gyarados  I had to use Stun spore to slow him down. Roselia was my lead.  I swtiched to Absol and set up Swords Dance on  him and I used Pursuit and Quick attack to beat Gyarados. The 2 Dragonairs were  not really a problem. I used Feralagator and its Ice Fang to beat them. I also  used Taunt on them so they couldn't use Thunder wave. Kingdra was a pain. The  majority of my team was beat except Feralagator. My team was Roselia at level  35,Espeon at level 36, Absol at level 35. Infernape at level 37,Wishcash at  level 39, and Feralagator at level 34. So I am going to try to get everybody up  to level 50 for the Elite 4. Also does anybody know when the Battle Frontier  opens up? Here is the thing I have used all of the electric types that are in  the game before. I wanted to try to use pokemon that I haven't used before.The  only electric type that I don't think that I used was Manectric. I typically  use Jolteon or Electrode for my electric type. Besides I am a veteran to the  pokemon games so it isn't like I don't know what I am doing. Guys I am probably  going to raise my pokemon. Most likely 55 for everybody. I tend to use water  types with Ice type moves to deal with Dragons. Gonna use this team that I have  for the whole game. As Pale said it is a mystery gift. Select Mystery Gift then  Nintendo Wi-Fi connection from the title screen. Oh before I forget to get the  Surf and Fly Pikachu to show up in your pokewalker you need a certain amount of  steps on the pokewalker to make them appear. Hmm I just checked my pokewalker  and all of my steps are gone.Watts are still there though.  You need 10,000 steps on the pokewalker to get  the Flying Pikachu. Surf Pikachu you need 9,500 steps. Well I beat Lance.Here  was my team. Espeon,Wishcash,Roselia,Feralagatr,Absol,Infernape. Infernape was  my highest at level 50 and my lowest was Roselia at level 41. Feralagatr had my  only Ice type move and was at level 44. Fealagatr beat the level 50 Dragonite. My  complete time was 32 hours and 18 mins. My Platinum complete time was 57 hours  and 34 mins. My platinum team was in its 60's when I beat the elite 4. I  attribute the Platinum time to me not really being familar with the Sinnoh  region and EV training my pokemon. I also bred lots of pokemon in Platinum. Well  I am up against The Psychic gym. The level 55 Alakazam is a pain. It has  Psychic,EnergyBall,Skill Swap and Reflect. Whenever I send in my Absol it uses  Skill swap before I can taunt it and Alakazam takes my Super Luck ability from  Absol which makes Critical hits more likely. I need to raise my team more. I  have Galade as well on Platinum. I used my Feralagatr versus the Espeon. It  knows Crunch. Espeon used Psychic but Feralagatr survived. Espeon had about a  quarter of its health. Feralagtr was at level 45 while I think Espeon was level  52. I switched in Absol on the Psychic and I used Pursuit to take it down. I  kept in Absol for Alakazam and thankfully it didn't use Skill Swap. So I used  Slash and Pursuit to finish it off. Mr.Mime wasn't really any problem It tried  to use Mimic on my Absol but it got Pursuit. Mr.My attack and defence is its  lowest. So I just kept on Pursuiting. Absol should get Night Slash the next  level. Well I have been playing alot lately. I have the Safari Zone so that it  can be custimized. I have beaten All the gyms in Kanto except Brock,Blane and  Gary. There is a Snorlax in my way at the moment and it isn't waking up when I  play the music. Any help would be appreciated. So I beat Gary a few days ago.  He has a Trick Room team but thankfully he didn't get to use it. His Gyarados was  a pain.  Anyway I am at Mt. Silver and I  need to know what HMs I need to use to get to Red. Let me know if you know. In  the meantime I am going to level up my team. Beat Gary at level 55. Red's  pokemon are in their 80's. Well I beat the Elite 4 the second time around. I  had some problems the first few times. I got to Lance my first 2 times. But  Gyarados beat me. So this time around I taught a few of my Pokemon a few moves.  On Infernape I put a choice scarf on it and got rid of Taunt for stealth rock.  I lead with Infernape and threw up the rocks.All of Lances Pokemon are weak to  Rock except Garchomp. Salamence used Dragon Claw and it took two turns to beat  Infernape. After Infernape died I sent out My Feralagtr which I taught Rock  slide to to help with Gyarados. I used Ice Fang on Salamence and it was  finished. In comes Gyarados and it used its ability on me Intimidate on me  making my psychical attacks weaker. I used Rock Slide and is didn't really do  much. It used Dragon Dance and it kept on doing waterfall after that. I managed  to beat Gyarados. Next comes Garchomp and it used Outrage. I taught my Wishcash  Ice beam before facing Lance and gave it Nevermeltice. I managed to get it down  to the 25 percent mark. I revived my Infernape and it had 1 close combat left.  I outran Garchomp and beat it. Next comes in Altera and I sent in my espeon  since Wishcash and Feralagtr were hurt. Alteria used Double team while I was  healing and it beat my Espeon with Dragonpulse.Espeon had half of its life  left. I bring in Wishcash and use Ice Beam and I get a critical hit. Level 75  Dragonite comes in I send out Feralagtr and use a X defend. It uses Draco  Meteor which is a special attack and it also lowers the users special attack  allot. I use a Dire hit item which increase the likelyhood of Critical hits. I  keep healing while Dragonite uses Draco Meteor. When I only take a small amount  of damage from Draco Meteor I use Ice Fang and I get a critical hit. This time  around most of my Pokemon were low 60's. My completion time this time around  was 53:51. Nope it is different in Heart Gold and Soul Silver. Also there is  tougher trainers in the game than Lance. First of all you can fight the Gym  Leaders again and then there is Red which has Pokemon in its 80's. If anyone  wants some help with the Elite 4 the second time around I will be glad to help.  Ha ha ha I beat Red! Most of my team was in its low 60's.Ursaring was level  33.:/ I led with Wishcash which had Earthquake. Since I led with a ground type  versus Pikachu it couldn't use it's electric attacks volt tackle and  Thunderbolt. It had to use Iron Tail and Quick attack. I got lucky and Iron  Tail missed. Finished it with Earthquake. Next came out Venasaur. Venasaur had  Sleep Powder,Sludge Bomb,Giga Drain, and Frenzy Plant. I used Infernape and  used Flare Blitz. It almost beat Venasaur and Red healed him. The Hail hit him  and went down a little. I used Flare Blitz and managed to beat Venasaur. Next  came out Blastoise. It has Blizzard, Flash Cannon,Focus Blast and probably a  water attack. Blizzard hits 100% when it is hailing. Focus Blast is a Special  fighting attack that is powerful but it has 70% acceracy. I sent out my  Roserade that had a choice scarf.The only way that I could be faster than  Blastoise.I used Sleep Powder and it fell asleep.I started healing my team.  Once I healed my team I tried to put Blastoise asleep again but he woke up and  used Blizzard. I sent out Feralagatr. Only Focus Blast would be effective and  as long as I healed properly I would out stall him. I used Crunch and Rock  Slide. I had a Hard Stone attached to Feralagatr. Crunch had a secondary effect  of lowering the foes defence. I got a critical hit from Rock slide and I  managed to beat it with a crunch. Next was Charizard. He had Flamethrower,Air  Slash, Dragon pulse and something else. I kept out Feralagatr and used Rock  Slide. Since Charizard is a fire/flying type Rock type attacks are 4 times  effective. I managed to outlast him. Next came Snorlax. My Infernape had  fainted so I sent out my HM user,Ursaring you only need Rock Climb and Rock  Smash to get to Red. Anyway I used a Max Revive on Infernape and let Ursaring  get hit with Blizzard.I brought in Infernape and used Close Combat.Snorlax was  down.I kept in Infernape for Lapras and used Close Combat again. Lapras is a  water/ice type.Fifhting is effective versus ice.I got it down to 30 percent.  Lapras used Brine,a water type attack, which does more damage if the user   has less than half life. So Infernape was gone again. I sent out Wishcash which  was in the red.I used another max Revive on Infernape.Lapras use Dragon Pulse.  I bring in Infernape and finish it off with Close Combat. Absol didn't really  do anything to help. Anyway now I can get to choose one of the Kanto and Hoeen  starters. I don't have a Blastoise on any of my games. I have a Swampert on  Platinum. Don't have Blaziken or Septile. I think I am going to go with the  Grass Hoeen starter.
