Since the Winter Olympics are happening, gotta post one of the most memorable medal events that I can recall

When I was 5, I placed 2nd in my region for a Blockbuster Donkey Kong Country competition. I was reeeeeeeeally close to making it to the finals in California.

Elton and Bowie are among the best of music.

That is an amazing list of songs. Huge fan of many of the artists on that list.

Although, I think this Bowie song ("Heroes")would have a more...interesting result (still love Let's Dance though).

I don't mean to alarm anyone but...

I think we've awakened the beast.

None of my friends could get into raocow. One of them likes the cat planet video, and another one really likes his art, just not his LPs.

Oh well.

The Purple Zone

So freakin excited to play Paper Mario 2 again, it's like my favorite game ever. It's seriously just a masterpiece all around, imho. And this time I'm gonna beat Bonetail, I swear!! And get all the recipes! And the tattles! Oh man, TTYD is like my favourite game of all time. It's a shame Super Pape...

Too much frigging snow. Woke up early. Shoveled. Went to TA a class. Came home. Shoveled. Exercised. Shoveled yet again. Realized I didn't have time to make a (late) lunch. Grabbed a couple cookies and water. Went back to school/work. Came home. Shoveled again. Got a call from my mom's friend. She n...

Brahms Requiem (Movement 6)

Been practicing a lot lately. That one is giving me some problems. ...Well, most of the movements are giving me problems, just that one is one I've been focusing on lately.

Damn that looks like a lot of fun. I definitely need to get in on the next one. (Well, next-next one since there's no way I'm gonna be able to get in a recording tomorrow)

I was able to do DKC2 102% in about 2 hours. Besides that, not much. There was a time I kinda wanted to get more into speed runs, but I got busy and there's other games I still need to play/beat.

Did you know: Actually, the vast majority of people in the united states don't watch the Super Bowl? Some of us nerds like to roll their eyes and act like they're above the crowd, but really, the real crowd is the people who don't watch the game but also don't make a fuss about it. To be fair, it's...

That reminds me seeing people complain on FB about a month ago complaining about the ice storms and the weather, and then seeing a picture of my choir director ice fishing in below -40C weather without a care in the world. The cold doesn't usually bother me too much, but that doesn't really seem app...

Eh, why not. Maybe I'll update this more than my backloggery account. COMPLETED N/A BEATEN Donkey Kong Country Returns (3DS) - Not really sure this counts because I beat it on Wii before. Still gonna try to get everything still. Super Mario 3D World (WiiU) Jet Set Radio (Steam) Sonic Generations - (...

My name is Mike. I am a Red Mage. Hence the name. I can't remember why I have the Cirno avatar. I put it up years ago when I first joined. Then when I decided to come back, Cirno was gone. I was gonna do something new, but couldn't think of anything, so Cirno is back. I used to have a sig, but I got...

My girlfriend would be open for it, but I'm kinda liking the trumpet idea tbh.

Question: How do sub-areas work, i.e. The Pyramid, Igloo, etc.?

Is there a limit to how many of those sub areas you can make, or could we theoretically make a massive level hubs with people contributing many sub-levels for each?

I think most levels should have 1-4 stars with the occasional big one with 6 or so. The star select screen will probably be removed from all levels, stars will instead be counted in the hub area. The game probably wont have the invisible or metal caps as demo causes the game to crash when she puts ...

I'd like to get in on this. I'm trying to get into game design and watching/playing ASBXT makes me wish I kinda gotten involved. I know I haven't been around since forever. I hope that isn't a problem. I promise I'm highly motivated!

(Edit: Dear God, I really should update my signature)

I rewatched it about a year ago. I made a mental note of "the big moment" because my memory is stupid and can remember stupid little details of no significance.

Random post back from no man's land to be a nitpicking bitch!

First "Yoshi is a horse" mention occurred in TSRP1 in this video: http://video.google.ca/videoplay?docid= ... 924984875#

That is all.

Today, I just realize why the game is called VVVVVV. I am really REALLY slow.

First try baby!

Wow, sounds like we're in for another AWESOME LEVEL!!!

Geez
