Wow, it's been a while hasn't it. I really wish I could be around a little more, but college has gotten to the stage where all I really have time for right now is depositing and a little B/P. Oh well, expect to see a little more of me over the Christmas break.

It was a very close one but congratulations to michelinman for becoming the newest Wi/Ht? Regular! :) Unfortunately, due to sorting by sign-up date to determine the one new regular for this month, Hacsev didn't make it this time but I wish the best of luck for the next update.

Well done to you both, welcome aboard michelinman, and good luck Hacsev, hopefully next month will be your time to shine (speaking of which, if I remember right December was when I got on the list - wow does time ever fly).

No-one was taken off the list due to having at least three outvotes but yet another regular has requested to be taken off the list due to lack of activity. LegolaSS wished to leave the Regulars List and like the previous retired regulars who made this request, he is more than welcome to return if he feels he's up to it again sometime in the future.

Pity, but I understand his sentiments completely. And come back YAW, we miss yew :(

Hey guys, sorry for not being more active, but with college and everything I have neither the time to B/P nor the motivation to post much. That being said I'm checking up on the Barracks daily to keep up with matters (and see if Eagle has posted the next chapter of BITB yet :P). Good to see all is quiet in the Portal...oh wait...

Hey guys, just swinging by to let you know I have reached Level 23.

Also, first post in almost 3 weeks, just shows how inactive I've gone thanks to college.

Hey guys, at the moment my schedule is quite hectic, and I'm finding my NG time to be quite stretched. To that end I've decided to stop making lists for a while. I'll still read over what's going on and try to keep up with Wi/Ht? but right now I just can't make time for everything.

Don't worry though, I've every intention of coming back :P

Ya, i guss i could just look away and all, but it's just knowing that there cutting me open would just freak me out. Also that you can watch and that you can't move or anything. I don't even like getting my shots every few years, i hate needles and all that stuff. I have a strong stomach as well, but to the extent of me geting cut open.

Why would you beat something as awesome as that to death?!

Rationality goes out the window when you are confused and scared. Still, it's a pity as it's one of the oddest mutations I've seen in recent times, and will probably provide some further insight into genetics (although it would be hilarious if it turned out on analysis that it was just a lizard which had lost 3 limbs in a fight).

Surgery. Let's face it, it's unpleasant at the best of times, as even if all goes well, recovery can (and usually is) rather painful. Just yesterday I had to get a sebaceous cyst removed from my chest, I was under local anesthetic so I was wide awake throughout (and being interested in medicine, I couldn't help taking a peek). However, I've had plenty of experience under the knife, prior to this in July '07 my appendix went from fine to very badly infected in less than 24 hours, although fortunately I acted quickly and got my ass into hospital as fast as I could.

So tell me Newgrounds, have you had surgery before, and what was the overall experience like for you? For those who haven't, would you fear that you might have a bad reaction to anesthetic, or that something else may go awry?

Shitty quality pic related; it's my chest post-op (the blood makes it look worse than it is, it's only a flesh wound).

I never had surgery before, but if i did i would want to ber out cold. I don't think i would want to watch them cut me open with all of the blood and the fact that it was me and not watching a video of somone else getting it dome.

If you go to someones profile and right-click their profile pic, select "View Image, the last bit of the URL will be somenumber.jpg or .gif. That's their ID number, so unless there's a easier way that's the only way I can think of finding them.

Indeed so but sometimes the choices in such things is inexcusable. :P I mostly dislike Greatest Hits albums if they offer nothing new, unless it's Queen. My other exception would be if I only want one album of a band such as Cannibal Corpse. I don't particularly enjoy them as a whole studio album but a compilation with a disc or two (and not four like the one they have) would be nice.

I'm somewhat similar, if I'm trying to get into a band and see if I like them, if they had some sort of compilation/greatest hits album out I'd buy that as a priority, and depending on what I thought of it get other albums subsequently.

New uni timetable is screwing with my routine a bit, so during the week expect some early morning lists and some fairly late ones.

I haven't played Bioshock, but probably the most epic intro I've ever seen is the one from Shadow of the Colossus, then again the whole game is an epic piece of art.

If it's that epic, I refuse to watch it until I get the game. Still need to find a good time to play it and the next PS1/2 game I was going to play was FFIX again.

Fair enough, it's really on an atmospheric and aesthetic level that it stands out, gameplay is fine but nothing spectacular. Personally it's been a while since I played, and I didn't get too far as there was a part I just couldn't figure out, if I find time I might dig it up and play it again as being older I'll appreciate the atmosphere more, and be better equipped to tackle the puzzles.

Exactly, and he did state his reasons as to why he didn't add that moment. You could say I've made a few mistakes on my Top FF tracks list myself and you know what, there could probably be a few changes done to the list but my top 10 will remain intact.

Whenever someone does a top X of Y there'll always be doubts, omissions and second-guessing yourself, so no point worrying about it I suppose :P

Exactly, I even had some people disagreeing with some of my decisions on the list. The one I remember very well is the little amount of FFVIII tracks and I thought was only fair for at least one person to complain about. However, as nice as the FFVIII soundtrack is, I much prefer the others. It still beats FFII, X-2 and XII soundtracks, though.

I suppose the whole thing can be simplified to "it's opinion" and that while a compiler would obviously invest time and thought into choosing worthy entries, there will always be complaints from those with differing opinions. It's like a Greatest Hits album, someone will always bitch that a certain song was omitted, same applies here.
