I had a nightmare where I was going to catch a Magikarp...

But my Pokeballs were SQUARE! http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/post/reply /1095234#

Actually, it was my friend's dream. Just thought it was funny.

Spy got so many great things out of this without ANY negatives. Disguising as an enemy spy is actually useful now, disguises are more convincing, you can use enemy teleporters, unlockable disguise weapons, disguising as a medic shows that you have an ubercharge...

CRAZY! Sniper can shoot through allies now, too. =P

I think the scout update was released around 9 or 10 p.m.

We're probably still going to be waiting for a few hours.

We have cameras.

Never on. Or are they...? o_0

I'm not counting Resident Evil 4 since I have it on GC.

1: Super Mario Galaxy
2: Brawl
3: Metroid Prime 3

Oh yeah, the Links. Similar special moves, but all with varying uses and abilities. The normal moves are pretty much different. Another vital difference is that in competitive play, Link sucks ass, while Toon Link can hold his own.

Brawl doesn't have clones. What some people call "clones" really only have some slightly familiar special moves. If you haven't realized, there are 4 special moves, and 17 others (I may have miscounted here). Even then, the special moves are so different that they really don't count as duplicates anymore.

Fox, Falco, Wolf all have the same Final Smash. Other than that, hardly anything is similar here. Fox and Falco are probably the two closest characters in the game.

Mario, Luigi. Two specials moves and some throws are vaguely similar. That's it.

What else...I can't really think of any others, because there AREN'T.

Super Mario Galaxy was my favorite game of all time, seriously.

What really sold me was the music. Wow, that's some incredible music. I don't know a single game with such an awesome soundtrack. Like...oh geez, it's just so awesome. o_0

Not to mention the gameplay was great too. I got 121 stars for Mario and 121 stars for Luigi and still wanted more.

The others, meh, they were okay.

The FLUDD is just about Mario's second or third best move.

It's fun to say in a quiet area.

Dear lord, anytime I think about Sim City or Sim anything all I can hear is "Insufficient funds to build that, insufficient funds to build that, insufficient funds to build that, insufficient funds to build that..."

My childhood horror. o_0

Anyway, my favorite word is "obstreperous." I love how everybody else's favorite words are all vulgar or under 5 letters long.

You idiot, just hit confirm and you're good. If anything bad happened when you obviously wished for it to close you could sue them for all kinds of stuff.

Give me an example, I'm not quite sure what you're talking about.

No, not not always.

I ain't wrong, fuck this tier bullshit, fuck tournyfags.

The only reason you say that is probably because you and your friend Ike aren't nearly good enough to compete well in tournaments.

P.S. I don't like testes, as the sig above me might suggest. javascript:MakeSmileySelection(10);

Not that much, but it's not a problem anyway, his speed and range make up for it.

Verycoolguy says he lacks speeds, and you say his speed makes up for it? What?

Of course an Ike player who frequents tournaments and gets in the top 10 alot will own a noob Meta Knight who bought the game four days ago. If it's a top level Meta Knight and a top level Ike, Ike will suck pavement and lose all of his stocks without taking one off of Metaknight.

No not always.

Yes always.

I'm sorry, but you're horribly horribly wrong, VenomKing. I disagree with everything you're saying here.

</thread>

Well, the tiers are based on numerical data mostly. Metaknight has won more tournaments than the next 5 or so characters combined, because he's so broken. At high level play the tiers do make a lot of difference.

That being said, there are counters, and some characters are just naturally better against others. I'm sure Ike has an advantage over a select few characters far above him on the tier list.

"The being said" being said, player skill is by far the most important, and if you beat someone with a low-tiered character it's not always that impressive.

Anybody want to play me online sometime?

Super Mario Galaxy + Portal = !?

I play Mario, because he's the shit.

But when I actually feel like winning, I play Metaknight or Marth (sorry about that Mario).

Don't fight an obsession, flaunt it. If you have an uncontrollable will to do something, continue doing it. Make a career out of it and be happy for the rest of your life.

I'm not seeing the problem here.

Okay, I don't really have a favorite teacher because they're all pretty great, but here's my suggestions.

In high school, you get slackers, especially when teaching a mandatory class. They'll want nothing to do with working hard and learning, just getting a barely passing grade. I see far too many teachers fall into the trap of trying to help them, to make them do their homework and study. EVERY teacher always says "Do your homework and you'll do fine! You shouldn't be failing this class!" The student proceeds to continue failing. If they don't learn to work hard by high school, you're not going to make a difference. My suggestion: If they don't do their homework, IGNORE THEM. Give out notes and study guides and tests like you normally would; they'll fail if they want to.

This being said, if THEY come to YOU asking for help, then help them! When they have the will, it's your time to strike. Make sure you do everything in your power to help them in the class (without giving them an unfair advantage in any way, however).

Also, extra credit. I love extra credit, and others do too. If you don't really believe in extra credit, that's fine, but if you decide to give some to students make it very HARD extra credit. Ask students to right a freakin' essay on whatever subject you're teaching and give them a small amount of points for it. If a student really wants to help out their grade, they'll spend the hour or two just to get those points. Giving extra credit is also important because it makes a student feel really great that they've accomplished something not asked of them. It encourages them to excel, to do more than what's expected of them.

Also, discipline is good, but only when it needs to be there. Only, ONLY exercise discipline when a student is disrupting the class. Talking loudly during a lecture or doing something stupid should put them into the hallway temporarily (or something other non-disruptive punishment). If they're whispering to their friend during a lecture or something like that, though, do not, I repeat, DO NOT call them out on it. A common mistake a lot of teachers make is to stop a disruptive student, they disrupt the class themselves by stopping a train of thought and switching a student's focus to something else. You have to make sure that the trade-off is more in your favor, and you're helping more than you're hindering.

If you hadn't guessed in some way, I'm a straight A student and my opinions on teaching are probably a lot different than the average student's. These are my suggestions, and you should know that I know nothing about teaching other than the observations I have made after being in school for over 11 years.

Good luck!

It always makes me feel cozy.
