Well, I DO suck at games.

And YouTube is creeping me out. One of the "related videos" to S3DB part 6 is the Splash Woman stage BGM. I didn't mention her or Megaman 9 in the movie description, no one commented on her either (why would you, with what happens in the last 10 seconds), I just mentioned her at one point. You mean YouTube can actually decipher my VOICE and pull related videos out of that? Creepy, I say.

lol, that is a little odd.

Figures that I find a wallpaper I really like for my channel background only shortly before YouTube switches over to that shitty layout, which I'm told is very unaccommodating to background images. They should make it optional and not mandatory.

I screencapped it, just so I'll have something to whine about once the change takes place. It looks awesome.

Back with more videos! Double program recapping the FF marathon:

Edit: Part 49, wrapping up the post-Ecruteak filler stint!

Edit 2: Remember the sneaking past the trainers I did way back when I got to Goldenrod? Well, it looks like we're all set for another session of that! Farfetch'd WAS on routes 38 and 39 in Gold and Silver, but it was moved to route 43 in Crystal. And I'll be ****ed if I catch another HM slave to tide me over until then. I'm getting that Farfetch'd no matter what.

Edit 3: With this being a site mostly frequented by people that are power players to some extent, this being a competitive Pokémon site and all, the topic of discussion of part 50 should be familiar to many of us.

hehe slowflake, you are going to be an internet star. I was watching this retsupurae pokemon video and your let's play of Red (episode 1) was in related videos.

Well, let's see in a few days if I got any more views than usual on that video, which is, incidentally, my most viewed one month after month... and on a weekly basis, only recently uploaded videos can beat it.

Part 51 up!

Edit: I don't do farmer speech so well, so no witty retort this time.

And I won't show it to them. I'd effectively be responsible for any spam that would follow the action of me sending it to them.

Anyway, seen the news on the Johto Dex at Serebii? I went all Da Vinci Code on the mismatches, and uncovered something potentially terrifying about HGSS. What is it? The answer... in the next episode!

Potentially terrifying indeed, now that you've gotten me all curious and worried about it!

I don't like the two empty spaces between Togetic and Ekans, which makes me think it's a two-stage evolution as opposed to Togekiss followed by something else. I want my 4th gen god damnit!! None of this LAWL CANT EVOLVE shit!

It's the meat of my theory, actually. Since everything up to Victreebel is the same, that means no Togekiss, but in-depth analysis of the rest of the Johto Dex points to the lack of all the other evos. But there's something slightly more insulting to it, if that's even possible.

Edit: Here we go! The Tajiri Code explained!

Edit 2: Epic dumbass comment over at Pokémon Red part 32. Make sure you read this!

And it's a Pokemon LP of all things. "Improve before you continue" might be fitting for a platformer, say, if your first few Sonic 3D vids were atrociously bad or something.

Well, they were. The second boss made me look as bad as it could without me actually dying. But I'll just chalk it down to the camera/controls two-headed monster and leave it at that.

And here's part 54, with a bit more positive news!

I didn't think they were atrocious. You didn't start making goofy errors until the 3rd level, on top of manhandling most of the chaos emerald stages. I'd say you did sufficient enough to avoid having someone make some kind of remark about poor playing.

Well, the good news is that if I manage to hold on to red shields, the first two acts of Volcano Valley will be a breeze.

Also, if you ever wanted proof that people really, really hate the beta channels, just look at the rating for this video. Ouch!

As a side note, in French, beta is a "polite" word for dumb. Works pretty well here.

My memory of the volcano levels themselves aren't too strong, but yeah, I know that I was able to coast through them pretty easily with the reds. If I died, it was because I brainfarted and got crushed by a moving platform or something idiotic.

The nickname thing made me laugh. If I weren't strict about keeping nicknames original I might've used it, also.

Slowflake, about that Splash Woman thing- by any chance did you google it before making it appear in your related videos list, or otherwise watch some Splash Woman video?

I just got "Proper Crunch Techniques" and "Bigmouth Billy Bass" in the relateds list for a Smash Bros video. The former I googled this morning and watched, the latter I googled three days ago.

"WATCH THESE VIDEOS! BY GOOGLING IT YOU HAVE EXPRESSED A PROFOUND INTEREST IN THE SUBJECT MATTER AND THEREFORE WE WILL BRING THESE TO YOUR ATTENTION FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE"

Firefox deletes my cookies and history each time I close it, too, making the bigmouth thing even weirder.

Nope, I haven't ever googled Splash Woman. It's gotta be voice recognition, I can't think of anything else.

And fun thing you should mention Pokémon nicknames, I just got a NZ Jirachi that needs, um, "translating". Can't take care of it right now though, my work schedule's a huge pain.

But I did manage to squeeze out a double program tonight:

Took me a second to realise you meant you wanted me to hack it for you. Give me the specs whenever you want, but the soonest I can do it is Monday (a family member died and my entire weekend is justifiably booked.)
