    I like this idea, but it also carries the implication that hasn't been registered since before xxx doesn't know what they're talking about, which just isn't true all the time. It is quite an effective way of stopping "mob voting", though. I'd like to respond to a lot more in this thread but at the moment I am tired as hell. Will do so later.

    Well, according to my girlfriend, he was hosting warez. SOOOO.
  3. Varna
    Haha, sorry man, but hacking tools =/= warez. They can't bust anyone for harmlessly cheating at a video game. Anyway, now that I've had a nice laugh, welcome and enjoy your stay (if you ever intended to stick around to begin with).

    I read everything, and even I didn't know.

    Eh, probably Giratina, though I've never much been a fan of the Dragon type.

    Peace, dude. I can't help but wonder who you were talking about. Ah, well.

    I don't think we should restrict who can vote. Simply because a person didn't meet some quota of battles doesn't mean they don't know what they're talking about, and vice versa. Instead, we could utilize something along the lines of a weighted vote system where those who have participated more will have a larger vote, but those who haven't or couldn't participate as much will still have a say. Of course, I don't really think a vote is an effective way to decide something like this to begin with, so it should be accompanied by some sort of debate as well, whence someone could compile all the major points from each side to help figure things out. As far as where to begin, I'd just like to say now that I'm not a fan of starting out assuming that another site's work is acceptable. It would be a much better idea to start from scratch, or place restrictions based on game data only, such as base stats or movepools. The testing will take longer, but it will be more fruitful. Whether or not we end up with something similar to anyone else's is irrelevant; the entire purpose of it all is to do our own testing. A key point to consider is the clauses. Almost every single one changes the game immensely, and they can't be taken lightly if serious tests are going to be run. In my personal opinion, species clause is quite possibly the only one that should be considered for use without testing to begin with. Any way you slice it, there is a lot of work ahead.

    Power Herb and some of the berries are ones I've personally noticed missing, and I wouldn't be surprised if there were more. Also, there should be at least one "junk" item programmed in for situations like Trick.
  10. Varna
    ^ That. Shoddy is a poor excuse for the actual game (they don't even have all the hold items programmed in, haha). I don't personally see the need for a lot of the clauses, though. I think that they should, at the very least, be tested.

    Well, for one, "what works" is an arguable point. Secondly, for plenty of reasons, not the least of which is to become a better community as a whole.

    I might reply with more later, but I think parents have a HUGE influence on their child's behavior. For example, I have a friend whose parents are devout Christians, and he has been brought up to be one (which personally I don't agree with, but I digress). They NEVER let him go out late on school nights (not even in high school) and always kept him from doing things with his friends on the weekends for "family time". The result? He doesn't ever WANT to do anything now but sit on his computer, draw, and do generally solitary things because that's all he knows.

    Personally, I think it was a stupid idea to cut characters out at all. All it does is piss people off.
  15. Varna
    Not really. Can't be considered pro at melee by anyone unless you abuse all the glitches. We fight fair.

    You've never met my friend. His Mewtwo competes right on par with my Marth game. We've even won a 2v2 tournament against some pretty sick competition. Using wavebirds no less. They instantly dismissed us as no threat when he picked Mewtwo and we had cordless controllers. Haha, oh the looks on their faces... The trick to Mewtwo is not offense, I'll tell you that much.

    Every single time I see this topic on the most recent topics list, I think it says "rival battle... WHAT IS A MAN?".

    Resisting the urge to troll really hard here. But I just have to. SUMMARY OF THREAD SO FAR! wraith - "God is absolute, and therefore evolution is false! You can't show me evidence that proves it! Even if you do, I am going to ignore all evidence presented to me anyways and repeat the same thing over and over, so don't even try!" Okami - "Well, I'm Spiritual, but I see no reason to be like ^." Everyone Else - "We respect your beliefs. However, we disagree. This is why... *evidence, examples, and logic* " So now that we all understand, we can move on to actual debate, yes?

    IRC Client

    Varna replied to Illithian's topic in Off Topic

    In all honesty mIRC is the best IRC program I've ever worked with. Those all-in-one messengers tend to display things improperly, lack features, or just flat out error. If you're really that irritated by the whole 5 or 6 second wait, crack it.
