Fist,
Not sure if you caught it or not but he didn't write that, he copypasted it.
Xkeeper,
You're at least 6 months late with that comment. At least. Wow.

Since Wall of Stone, some walls have been printed that's.. a lot better than Wall of Stone too.
1G
0/4
Draw a card when this comes into play.
or
1G
0/5
Put a -0/-1 counter on this: add G to your mana pool. Use this ability only once each turn.
Two excellent and cheap walls, Wall of Blossoms and Wall of Roots, just as an example.

There are cheaper 0/5 walls without drawbacks, and even with significant advantages. So don't worry about that card being overpowered :)
The card in need for some power balancing here is the first 3/3 Yoshi for 2GG. That card would be sick good.

Bisqwit,
Just want to respond to this one.

* Re: Megaman movies getting all the attention from publishers: Would you like us delaying them instead. Have you seen any Megaman submissions turbo-published lately? Where were complaints about SMW?
I don't know what your definition of turbo-published is, but yes probably every megaman movie submitted in the time I've been to this site has been turbo-published by my standards (no need to bring up any exceptions). Not that I think it's a huge deal, because I don't. I do think it's unfortunate that we have runs which have been accepted for over 6 months still in the queue though.
As for SMW, I think the main reason megaman was used as an example of popular games getting preferential treatment is we see a lot more megaman submissions than SMW submissions, so favoritism in the case of megaman games is more easily noticed.

I actually first brought up the spin/turn because it was something I do when playing the game. You can actually get quite good at turning around. As for the extra high bounce thing, I don't think you could do it fast enough, but maybe. I haven't tried it.
Yeah I use it a lot when I play the game normally too. Well, try to anyway, you only have a 50% success rate.
Not sure what extra high bounce think you're referring to though.

Bisqwit,
Have you considered increasing the number of members with publishing capabilities? I don't know if have more people who feel like dealing with it, but if we do that might be a reasonable solution to get encoded movies published quicker and decrease the amount of work each publisher would have to do in the long run.

Yes, most likely wrong. As long as he doesn't resend the same part into the swarm several times (which he shouldn't), he uploads 118 MB to them just as fast as to a single person.
What it would solve though, is that people probably wouldn't be complaining, since the time to download the whole movie would be shorter, even though the end time when you have the whole movie is the same. (Awkward sentence. Hope I got through.)
EDIT: clarified double meaning in first sentence

it's theoretically faster to just seed it via bittorrent than to send it someone else before publishing. That'll only work if everyone plays nice and uploads their pieces to the others, though.

In cases where the original uploader has a fairly low upload speed, isn't it a good idea to first send the avi to someone with good upload speed before seeding to everyone else?

Bisqwit,
I'm not convinced doing anything with this except joking around for fun in this thread is a great idea. Making something "official" from some arbitrary silly categories where people probably won't always agree. Though I guess adding some polls to this forum might spice it up a bit, who knows.
Edit: Not using polls would put this idea in a whole new level of stupid.

Hi Eiskalt!
1. I'm not super sure which jump you mean. All the jumps in this level are pretty easy, once you practice them, though. So yes whichever it is it's definitely possible.
2. It sounds like you try to jump too early. You need to let the fast running speed begin before you start jumping, or else the jump will be in the "middle" speed, and you won't be able to make it. Just keep practice the timing, wait a little longer before jumping off the ground.
Any other questions, feel free to ask. Good luck!
