Synchs just fine for me. I say go ahead and submit it; it would most likely find a home in the Concept Demos section if anything. Was it just me or were you trying to spell something right before Eladard? I've been watching it and can't quite decode it if you were.

Somehow I couldn't help but think of this when reading. Sounds interesting.

I've got a stock eMachines wired ball mouse with two buttons and a scroll wheel. Sucker is at least 5 years old. I once saw a *really* old mouse that came before even the ball. Instead it had two top-like wheels, one for X, the other for Y. I kinda want one. Edit: And my keyboard is some generic Logitech. It serves its purpose well, but what frustrates me is that the F-keys default to other functions like e-mail and media control every time I turn my PC on; in order to use them as, you know, the F-keys that everyone is familiar with I have to press an F-lock button. What a stupid stupid stupid design decision that was. Edit 2: What I think would be pretty spiffy to have is one of those silicone rubber keyboards, especially the kind that lights up. I have to wonder about how they feel when typing, but nevertheless they strike the "That's awesome!" chord within me. I had to laugh, though, when the box for one of these proclaim, "Indestructible!" My first thought to that was, "Yeah, let's see if a ferret agrees with that." Those little suckers absolutely love chewing on soft rubber.

Unless this method of storing screenshots is some sort of personal challenge or if things are still in beta and you're hoping to reach advantageous stability, I must ask if this is really worth keeping around? 1. Something about it seems to break about once a week. Just another aspect of the site to try and maintain. 2. As you said elsewhere, it seems to be having an adverse impact on bandwidth. There is, however, at least one thing I've liked about it. When I'm perusing a list of movies and the page is still loading, I don't have to keep scrolling down to keep up with things if the movie I'm looking for is below the point where images have loaded due to the image dimensions being fixed before being loaded proper.

Actually, I didn't know that trick was possible until I came here.

I wish to back up Kirk's statement about taking fall damage under water as I have done it several times myself. It involved falling into shallow water that was just barely deep enough for Mario to be swimming in. Unless I'm misunderstanding something here...

Taken last week at a Halloween party. One of the girls there wanted a picture and put it on Facebook; somehow my sister got a hold of it and sent it to me. And yes, I *am* the best around. ;P (yes, I'm aware my belt is white; I didn't have access to a black one) What was awesome about this party was that someone came dressed as a shower. I asked him if his costume was inspired by The Karate Kid, and sure enough, it was. His costume was my costume's costume! I wish I had a picture. Stupid camera, why you gotta go and break on me? Edit[/b]: Whoever took the picture definitely mirrored it for whatever reason since I remember sticking my right hand out. It's fixed now.

15/16 first try. The one that gave me trouble was 16 (although I got that one with Jupi's hint, so now perfect score!).

This whole situation reminds me of an incident that happened to me back in middle school. Someone I sat with claimed that you could gain access to a few more worlds by jumping into the waterfall outside the castle and landing in a cannon that was supposedly hidden inside. I tried many times, asking him about particulars, and each time it was different, with the process changing or new details being added. Eventually I invited him to my next birthday party for the sole purpose of having him prove it. He refused to take the controller on the basis of, "It's really hard to do!" Yeah. (keep in mind we were 11/12 at the time)

This description is less Nintendogs and more like some vet simulator I once saw where you put bandages on a bunny's ears and a cast on a ferret's leg but more on an "obedience" side instead of medical.

I was lazy and didn't feel like downloading/watching fifty different files to watch the whole thing. :P And yes, this is the most bizarre A/V desychnronage I've personally seen. Either way, I still enjoyed it.

You know, from our IRC conversations, that I was looking forward to this. However, from those same conversations, you also knew my stance on Mupen. As such I didn't post in this topic until it was published. Now, that it's published, I watched it. And dangit, I loved every minute of it. Awesome in pretty much every regard: fast, surprising moves, lots to enjoy. Add to that my fondness for this title from my early adolescence, and I think we have another favorite video of mine. Watching it did make me sad, though. Talk about pining for the good ol' days! It seems like this sort of quirky style is reserved strictly for block puzzle games anymore. Publishers are scared of it! Okusenman, okusenman...

I'm not done with the game yet! :( I'm stuck at some place where my only options for progress are unlocked with medals, but I can't find any anywhere! Gotta buckle down if I wanna watch this. Thanks for the impetus. Nine minutes cut off? Nice job! Edit[/i]: Nevermind, more like six minutes. Still!

Nice. I only have one concern. When working through a vertical shaft, why not boost at a properly positioned angle so that you have some boost momentum when you clear the floor/ceiling?

Well, it works in my submission at least. Thank you! Edit[/i]: Nevermind, it broked again. :(

Small bug with this new method. The algorithm decided to snatch my Sparkster submission, and in the process decided to mess around with the formatting. Instead of the images standing to the left of the text in the header where I want them, they're standing on top. I tried using the left command in the image tags, but that caused the images to pop out of the headers, which I thought looked tacky.

For anyone who's thinking of doing a Dark Demon run, I just found something I find interesting. He has 200 total hits. For form 1, use Ultimate w/ Fang for 8 points a shot; for form 2, use Aerial w/ Fang as Ultimate does half the damage against that form. I suppose the developers thought they were being funny by making him weaker to a lesser form or something.

So you'd rather go with old time, pay-by-word telegram than Babelfish?

I go through and, for some practice using 9x's cheat search, do a little RAM searching on this title to find out how much damage each attack deals, then come here and see this. I figure you've already done the same, so I won't bother posting them unless asked. I do remember encountering an interesting glitch in level 8. The first time I destroyed the crystal reactor, the scrolling somehow bugged out, broke free of its constraints, and allowed me to move a screen or two to the right where it would stop at the bottom of the shaft; I couldn't go up until the explosion had finished.The obvious benefit is that you'd get a head start for when the explosion stops, but it also reduces lag. I have no idea what caused it, and have not been able to reproduce it since. One request: While you're waiting for the piano boss in level 6 to finish blowing up, could you play a simple little song? "Mary Had a Little Lamb" would be much more fun to listen to than, "3 Year Old Pressing Random Keys".

Hence my calling it a dialect.

Yeah, I figured it would produce some funny statements like that. :P It's almost enough to get me back onto IRC just to see what sorts of silliness it could produce. Still, nice feature.

It appears to be a dialect of lolcat. I'll see what I can do about it. "Please recolor the Skype icon." I have some questions: 1. What is this feature you were testing? 2. Did it work?

I guess this explains why unloaded images have had different colored chunks recently.

Yeah, I'm going to cancel these. They weren't too hard to make, so expect improvements in the coming weeks*. *this statement is contingent on a few factors, including time, motivation, and whether or not I snap and kill someone
