But smashing isn't as impressive as burning.

Still impressive enough if you do it like this :p

What does that mean?

That's why I gave you a link. :P
Robert Hoyzer was involved in a bet scandal in german football. He confessed that he deliberately made some wrong calls in some matches (most noticable the cup match between Paderborn and HSV, where he gave two penalties to Paderborn).

So calling out "Hoyzer" to a ref is just saying: You have been bought and you cheat on us.

Sorry, I always read these posts in quoted form so I tend to miss the links.

Anyway, lol :p I think I heard about that scandal some time ago. If I remember correctly it was pretty big news once that refs were corrupt in major football leagues across Europe, including the German, English, Italian and Belgium ones.

I don't know what's popular to shout towards a referee here at the moment, but we tend to get personal when insulting football players and refs.

I don't know if it still happens (it propably does) but at the beginning of a match the stadium announcer calls out every players name. And it used to be the case for the opposing team (ie the away team) the home fans would always shout "Arschloch!" (=asshole).

It went like that: "With the number 8 <first name>" and the fans will shout out the last name.
For the away team it's always:
Announcer: "With the number 8 <first name>"
Fans: ASSHOLE! >_>

Hahaha XD

I don't think they announce players like that here. They just say the full name and then the crowd goes like: "HAAAAAI". The Dutch football association tends to make a big deal out of such things and the clubs are always held responsible for their fans' behavior.

A friend told me few days ago, that Japan doesn't have any human waiters in most restaurants anymore. They already use robots which you can speak to them and they take the orders to the kitchen. I don't know if he lied to me, but if he was talking about Japan's technology, then I really don't know :/ Specially after watching videos like this one.

Lol, that's a pretty cool robot. Although he doesn't seem too good at ping pong yet.

It sounds plausible that they have robot waiters there. That seems like a kind of job that can easily be done by robots, since it mostly involves walking around, taking orders and bringing something from one place to the other.

Better that than Emo Samus, trust me. Metroid never needed dialogue to begin with.

Yeah anything would've probably been better than emo Samus. Except for her being a total clown maybe. I agree, Metroid doesn't need dialogue. The adventuring in solitude is just a major aspect of the series and the series' atmosphere.

I'd expect her to be more like an intelligent, brave and lonesome woman. I'm wondering why the creators of Other M thought that 'emo Samus' was a better idea than going with such a personality.

I guess they wanted a change but it didn't work well.

Nope, and they should've at least gone for something special rather than a very cliche kind of storyline. I heard it was pretty cliche at least.

What convention? It has to be pretty awesome if it wants to beat Sziget.

Comic Con, PAX, whichever one I can attend sometime in the future.

I see. They'd seem fun to me, but not something I would want to go to America for. Also, I don't think I'd like the crowdedness in such conventions.

Oh really? Well maybe sending the police at him isn't really gonna help then.

Actually, it might since they already know he's caused trouble before.

Yeah, but again I don't know what the UK police is like, but here they usually don't feel like sorting such things out and just give out a warning and leave.

It's amazing how far Japan has gone with all of its advanced technology. I'm pretty sure in a few years more, American and European industries and companies, will be forced themselves to make deals and businesses with Japan, more than now.

I'm sure Japanese will be needed to business people in the future, if they want to succeed, along with their companies.

- Work on a super secret project that isn't Fro's super secret birthday flash.
- Continue writing the storyboard of my next sprite movie. Yeah, I will just fuck the sprite haters and work in, most likely, my last sprite movie ever. However, it won't be a comical flash.
- Keep writing my own walkthroughs for the NG wiki for the medal games section.
- Icon modding, of course.

It might be fun, but then again I'm not as fanatical about games as most of the people in those places are. Plus I don't know anyone who would want to go with me.
