Lately the way I've been sleeping has been sort of fucked up (Sleeping 3-4 hours then taking a 1-2 hour nap half way through the day) and because of it I've voted on almost every submission since 9/12. I'm at 143 submissions in a row right now.

You should get some sleep, theres no way bp points are more important than sleep. I should be sleeping now but I got woke up from my slumber so I decide to check out some rage comics and deposit my 3,000th depositery. Wait (negate 3 for profile and emails) so its my 2,997th for the anally correct, right.

I'm happy I'm this high up. A second alternative for retirement would have been 50,000 blams and 50,000 saves but I'm good with where I am. Maybe this time next year I'll be close to falling off the top 30.

Yeah, but I wonder if you'll still be in the top 50 saviours by then. Guess we'll see.

Alright, I'll shoot him a PM.

Hahahahaha, no need.

Lol, what a coincidence.

Spiderpig, Spiderpig...

No actually, that was one of the less funnier ones.

That joke was so bad the only place to find less funny jokes is on the internet. The internet thinks over 9000 and rick rolls are still funny.

Well te internet is constantly supplied with 13 year olds so I guess those will stick around for a looong time. As well as Chuck Norris jokes -.-'

Beaten and beaten!

Damn, I still need to do that.

Well a pretty good strategy for Omega is having a Mystic Knight with the Rapid Fire ability use Thundaga Sword (preferably with a powerful weapon like the Chicken Knife) and then have someone with the Mix ability use Dragon Power on him. Then Rapid Fire away. You should deal great damage in one turn, like well over 9,999. Use your other characters to stay alive and cast spells like Hastega. You can take him down in 2-3 rounds if you're lucky.

For Shinryuu you should also use someone with the Mix ability and have him/her use Bachuus' Wine and Dark Spot on him. That should blind and berserk him. Then keep yourself alive with Golem and slash away.

These are the strategies I used and they work really well for these two bosses. There were other ultimate bosses in FF games that gave me a LOT more trouble.

To be honest I did look at a let's play because Omega kept kicking my ass. Shinryu is actually surprisingly easy if you know that he's vulnurable to blind and berserk.

Gotta love exploitations.

Yeah. I actually find it kinda lame that some great bosses in Final Fantasy games can be crippled so easily. Like when you can hit them with Stop or Sleep or a boss that mostly uses magic with Silence or Berserk... =/

Since I still don't have anything from Anthrax (but I thought about picking something up for quite some time now...), which album would you say I should get first?

Among the Living, for sure. After that, go for Persistence of Time.

Ok, let's hope I remember this when I am about to buy an Anthrax album.

In that case, try Video Games.

I post there every now and then. But most of the times the threads are about games I never played (ego shooters, etc.)

Then make threads about games you like.

I'm sure the threads about games I like already have been made and died some years ago. I rarely play current games, as I always wait a few months before I buy games. They are a lot cheaper if you wait long enough. Also, if I get a new game it can take years before I actually play it, lol.

But Robben didn't play. :P

Yeah... once again. We nicknamed him "the man of porcelain" in Holland.

We call him "Mr glass bones".

And they booted van Gaal last season. And now media is talking shit about how Bayern has to get "van Gaal out of they playing style" as if everything was complete and utter shit when van Gaal was there. They made it to the CL finals with him as a coach, for god's sake!

Yeah and they won the title if I'm not mistaken. I loved how he reused his speech from when he won the title with AZ Alkmaar in Holland. "Wir sind die besten von Dortmund! Wir sind die besten von Berlin! Wir sind die besten von Hamburg! Und jetzt sind wir die besten von Deutschland!".

Yes, he won the league and the cup. Also, the speech was awesome.

Anyway, it sucks how coaches can go from hero to zero so quickly and always have to take the blame in the football industry. I feel sorry for some of them.

Yeah, somtimes coaches need some time. But they don't get the time they need.
Anyway, I think van Gaal is more like a "dictator" and I guess some players just didn't like that. A man like Mario Gomez (who scored 28 goals last season!) is very sensitive. In one game he just hits the goal with every shot. In other games he wouldn't hit the empty goal from 2 meters away.

Nah I didn't. But maybe they altered it a little for our musical? I can't blame the singer though. She was one of the very few in our school who had some real singing and acting talent.

Maybe I like the song better because the version I have is immediatly followed by "Let the sun shine in", which is a pretty good song as well.

I can't remember that one. The only one that really sticked with me is that Aquarius song.

Pretty sure I saw someone a couple years back manage to get a post count average of 300+ on their first day here. Not to sure if they got banned that day or not though. That would be like posting once every couple of minutes.

Some people just find a few threads that they can converse in. ZAAL found about 2 dozen of these a day and it is possible, but most people getting 300 posts on day 1 are just banable material.

Yea I would say so. Sometimes I feel that way on the BBS as well. Some days you find a lot of threads have been made that you contribute to and other days there is not as many so I constantly check every now and then in between review breaks on those kind of days.

Yeah, I need to start doing that again, as my posting has pretty much ground to a halt.

Time to go on working toward my next milestone then, becoming #3 on the audio review list which is taking a while. Although at my pace 2,136 is not far away and since he is inactive it may not take long thankfully.

Good luck with that. I've got to plough through the RRC audio, because I need to get at least 50% for the week!

Best of luck with that. I didn't start on the one list a couple of weeks ago until after I hit 2,000 audio reviews which took a couple of days due to how close I was to it.

Wow. I've done 1 audio review this week and I was put off reviewing some, because with 5 minutes left of my lunch break, trying to review a song that's 6-10 minutes long can be a bit of a ball ache.

Yeah, but if you take into the fact that Bridge has so many variations, it beats cricket. There are three versions of Cricket (Test being 5 days, One day format being 40 or 50 overs per side and Twenty20 being 20 overs per side) We play other versions in village games (50, 40, 36 over matches per side; 12 x 8 ball overs on Wednesday evenings and the 10:10, where each team plays 10 overs and both sides use 10 different bowlers for their overs.)

Those mostly sound like variations that decide how long the game will last.

Essentially, yes. You can't go playing 50, 40 or even 36 overs a side on a Wednesday evening, as you'll finish in the dark at about 3am on Thursday. It does change the attitude of the fielders and the batsmen for the duration of the game - shorter games, the batsmen take more risks and if you're a good fielding side, you can really restrict them.

I'm still amazed at how he could throw the ball a meter wide and still make it bounce towards the wickets. It's not like our sports field was all that smooth.

Ah, a bit of wicked turn. My cutter does something like that and because of the wind across me on Sunday, it was practically straight.

I suppose they designed the ball especially so that it can curve a lot?

It's all in either the fingers, or the wrist action. Sure, if you catch it on the seam, you'll get it to spin a lot, but the proper spinners get the turn from the roughed up leather either side of the seam.

Well none of my friends are planning to get married yet, so I don't see myself being asked for best man anytime soon either.

My mum asked me if I'd be considered for Best Man for my brother. I'm not even planning on going to the wedding, I object to the bride so much.

Plus little Coop can't afford me.

And because you couldn't really get along well with your brother, right?

I have to get on with him for the kids, but in order not to cause a scene, I'll not be in attendance. I don't want to ruin their day, I just don't want to be hugging the pan in the gents, losing my lunch, either.

Got to love the irony there except they were spreading a good disease called their music. Probably one of the bands where I can see a good mix of Rap and Metal. Kind of lenient with Limp Bizkit though as he only as a couple of songs that can blend both genres anyways.

Yeah, Anthrax released an EP where they experimented with hiphop. I haven't picked that up, though.

I'm afraid I have no plans for any Monday Metal Treasures for 2012. If more people commented on my posts, I'd go ahead with it but I don't think it's been successful enough for a second round. For this reason, I'm going with new plans once I've finished writing up the last remaining posts.

Sounds good to me. Will be looking forward to some new stuff next year then, sounds very promising to me.

If I work hard enough, I might be able to launch it in December.

It sure does. The only ones that have had that are myself, gfox and ramagi. Maybe Denvish as well but I can't quite recall now.

Not too sure but I think a long while back I remember Denvish having 70,000 blam points and less than 100 save points, could have been another user but I think I remember seeing him with those stats.

No, he didn't have that little saves. :P

That's actually quite clever of Square. They assumed only the very bored ones would go as far as experimenting with inflicting abnormal status on big bosses. It's like casting zombie on Yu Yevon but less retarded.

Sounds interesting. The only one I'm completely aware of that is a mix of the hip hop and metal genre is their song "I'm the Man" which seems a bit humorous anyways.

That was actually the first song of theirs I listened to. It wasn't a good one, though since that wasn't Among the Living or anything like that.

That would be pretty great.

Very much sounds frustrating kind of since you maintain a few lists along with helping make a lot of icons for the icon mod lounge.

Nah, my schedule is relaxing. I just need to not hit writer's block. I would like to get through FFXIII as fast as I can, though while I'm upstairs on weekends. I won't be touching my PS3 for the next two weeks, though so I better do what I can now.

Level 54 is possibly one of the few level icons I don't like since it's a golden chainsaw which would likely be useless. The only other icons I don't like is level 33 and 34. Can't wait until I reach 35!! Don't get me wrong, shurikens are nice ninja weapons though.

Level 50 is a whole lot better than 49, though. That reminds me, I'll be having that shitty cupid in a few days time but I've already set up a script to automatically change 49G to whatever I want. Still, for my upcoming trip, I'll be most grateful if my depositers make extra sure I don't miss any deposits.
