Random Randomness / Re: General Random Facts Topic

Bumping this because I found something interesting.

Today is all about having the same D.O.B! Three pairs of celebrities all were born on this day, but in separate years:

• Constance McCashin and Linda Thorson - both born in 1947
• Isabella Rossellini (Italian actress; she starred in Blue Velvet) and Carol Kane - both born in 1952

And, most famously (and oldest):

• Paul McCartney and Roger Ebert - both born in 1942

Happy birthday to each of them!

tbh I'm more "err" over moffat writing the Scandal episode.. I can't help but worry that irene will become a 2D "feisty lady" stock character. Not that I'm sceptical of the moff's ability to write good female characters... but I am. A bit. 
why do I even care it'll be great 

Erggh Mark entertains me so much.

Role Play / Re: Role-Play FAQ

Come on, Tim.

• God-modding - Or G-modding for short, is usually frowned upon within a Role Play. It is essentially the act of making your or your character behave like a 'God', as in not sustaining injury, defeating foes easily or similar. It also includes taking control of other characters without permission.  This can also be called 'Power Playing' - the act of controlling other characters without permission. There are several of these terms used, and there's no real 'definition', making it subject to opinion. Suggestion is often acceptable though - (He expected her to be upset, but did not want her to cry).

I'm a bit confused with this summary. From my experiences, god-modding and power playing are two different things - g-modding being controlling characters that aren't yours unfairly, and power playing being making your character seem invincible (aka "God").
I mean, I can understand why they can be grouped together since they use similar forms of "God"...but then you talk about controlling other characters in your next bullet. I'm just wondering if that seems redundant?

Other than those two things the whole faq is a great job.

Updates / Re: COMPETITION: Design a Pokémon!

I have a question.
If the winner of this competition already has a copy of Black/White, would it go to runner-up instead? And other situations like if the winner & runner-up both have one would it go to third, etc.

Lucifer I know you probably don't mean harm but damn those paragraphs of yours just reminded me of a complexly-worded worksheet that I'd encountered earlier this week...

First film i saw in the cinema was Mulan around '97.

I thought Mulan was out in '98? Or did you get an advanced screening or something somewhere.
Can I say the last time I was measured I was 5'10" (feet/inches). Who knows, I could've grown since then.

You must be mad about the 3D, right? Understandable.
Hell, I remember back in the days of the N64...Those were the days eh...
Those were the days you could actually see the details of the polygons! Now all the graphics were fangled and mixed and cleaned to make it all seem real. Feh!

Character Guides / Ridley Morrison [3]

« on: February 19, 2011, 18:17 »

Name: Ridley Morrison

Age: 15

Gender: Male

Description: Ridley is a glaringly lean boy, and has been ever since he could remember; his lack of any "real" muscles compliments and justifies this. He stands about 5'7". His hair is straight, flat, and black, draping down to his ears all around except over his face, where it's made sideways near his forehead. His eyes are blue like an ocean while his skin has an orange hue to being white at the same time. He wears a black, sleeveless shirt that goes with red boardshorts that are long enough to cover his knees. Ridley has a personal preference to wear his signature brown sandals all the time.

Personality: Ridley is a good companion to have, as he's friendly and can tolerate anything that he has to deal with. However along with these traits comes with him being occasionally dumb and easily-fooled. At points in the way he talks he might shorten words and use "reckon" to explain what he thinks. In contrast of that, he could use sea jokes to lighten the mood of any tension arising. In a small glimmer of narcissistic tendencies, Ridley will almost continually say that he looks better without a shirt, despite not having any muscles to show.

History: Ridley was born in Oldale Town, after a long relation between his parents. His mother was a bit of a maverick, and his father was a full-fledged sailor. After hearing many stories from his father on how fun he had travelling through and enjoying water, he felt that he should follow in those footsteps, lest he not be motivated to do anything with his life. When he was around 10 (a year after his father retired from duty) he and his father decided to catch some Pokémon to help around the house. The idea struck Ridley that he should go travel on his own to meet more wild Pokémon, but he was too unsure to ask. Four years after thinking, he decided to, and his parents both accepted to idea contently.

Friends: N/A.

Enemies: N/A.

Pokémon:


Wailmer - (Water Veil/Bashful)
[Splash, Water Gun, Rollout]
Wailmer had been caught out on Route 103, not too far from Oldale Town. Having no other Pokémon of his own, Ridley had to use one of his father's. He caught it without too much trouble as the Water-Type was too shy and happy-go-lucky to really challenge him. He's not that skilled with battling, but he can hold up a decent skirmish.

Items:
PokéNav (beta)
Good Rod
Pokéball (x5)
