I like the phrase "merely agonizing". It's almost an oximoron. oAo Unless one finds agonizing to be a mere trifle. I do like that phrase, though. My male cousin on my mom's side and lives the closest is the one I spent the most time with. We both did martial arts and learned to sword fight with each other. He's the one that created the fictional race of Scracs with me. He insists is should be spelled Squarack or something like that xp Yes, like I said, they got that right. His song starts because the Lorax tells him what he's doing is bad. The Onceler is confused by this and begins naming all the good things he's doing, and the chorus is "How can I be bad?" I see. I did create a species with the help of my little sister once, but she lost interest pretty quick, so I was left to develop everything about them on my own uvu I did end up working out a ton of bad, sue-ish things about them as time progressed. Squarack sounds so odd 8D Hehe. Tis good. I did see the music video, and they did a good job with the progression the Onceler showed and such ewe |

Suddenly I'm thinking of the Mythbuster's episode where they're trying to get hardened cement out of a cement mixer with explosives. The explosives expert starts with a dinky explosive (like a little firework that goes 'pop'), and makes tiny steps. After awhile, the 'busters tell him to make the steps a little bigger. :U Boom!  |

That was one of my favorite explosions on that whole show, because there wasn't really a " BOOOOM!", it more like a " thwip!" and the truck was gone. |

That was one of my favorite explosions on that whole show, because there wasn't really a " BOOOOM!", it more like a " thwip!" and the truck was gone. That show is made of awesome. HEHEHE, EXPLOSIONS. And you know what did it? Small bombs!  Absolute perfecto. One of Battler's explanations that a human could have made people blow up from the inside was that someone planted small bombs in their food XD
That's where the running gag comes from in the Umineko fandom :u
Even Beatrice makes fun of that one |

The concept ended up very different from the roots, but I'm still very fond of the origins. Mostly because it's one of the few times when my little sister and I worked on stuff together. Also, yes, your cousin's right. Lightsabers and stuff are inefficient, not to mention hardly usable without incredible waste. Still makes for a pretty sword |D |

Ah yeah, I should finish making my post for that. (I know it doesn't have to be long, but I want to say something.) In case you haven't heard, there's also a Facebook page trying to get to 100,000 'likes,' and you can sign up to be a ServBot (the latter is particularly pushed for since there's a rumor that 25,000 is the magic number to get the 'green light,' but the former is fast, simple and doesn't hurt). A site with pretty much all the important links is here.  I know I'm enjoying the 64 version of Legends1 so far. I'd like to see the Legends3.  ((*poke* Guys, the MegaMan series in general seems to be having trouble and could use some help. If any of you are for this, spread the word. 'Like and reblog' it and such. :U)) I really should get to bed... Don't want to delay finishing various posts much longer, but I figure working on stuff at this time of night would overall be detrimental. Good night!  |

I know about the site. I joined the group and liked it way back when it started, hahaha.
But still, best sign the petition too. Sign all the things. We need to show Capcom we're interested, as all they seem to care for right now is money uvu
Go to beeeeeeeeed

Still makes for a pretty sword |D Making up a species is fun |D While the Scracs were created by both me and my cousin, the Lesks are all mine. Here's something I've wondered about. Are light sabers laser swords like the Rinamians use, or something else? And why do they straight up cut/melt what they touch while a plasma saber from Megaman has to make several passes to get through? Is it because plasma, as ionized air, is only really strong in mass quantities (like a star)? Yep Can't see it -edit- Now I can what just what XD I've got to put something like that in Blakcha and Hoyle's worlds. While the rest of Soulstice is old and has all the kinks worked out, new worlds have the opportunity for glitches :] |

I think that depends on the armor type more than the saber. You can easily cut down canon fodder with it, but those with stronger armor (like bosses or stronger foes) would take more passes out of having heavier armor of more protective metal (like, say, ceratanium or something). That and, well, -game mechanics- XD XD Glitches are hilariously fun. ... haskfjsadkf poor digital things ewe |
