Black Mage

I am in need of finding some good quality sfx from Kirby Superstar, but am unable to muster the google mojo to find any. Mario? Easy. Zelda? Piece of cake. Kirby? Not so much... Does anyone know of a site? Many thanks for any help.

My dad, running a beta? I don't thin he'd even know what that was. He's running probably the same as me, 2.0.0.1.2. The IE on his compy doesn't do it. I may have to have him copy all the bookmarks in FireFox and do a complete wipe of all things FireFox from his system. I tried uninstalling it, but I guess it backed-up certain files and plug-ins, so when I reinstalled it, the jumping continues. The thing is, what few add-ons I've put on his computer and also on mine, yet I have no problem with this issue.

For some reason, certain kinds of ad frames keep jumping back-and-forth to the right on my dad's computer when using FireFox. Here's what it looks like... I've uninstalled adblock from his firefox, but that didn't fix it. Any thoughts as to the cause and cure? Thanks!

I kind of figured the "leaked" design was just another component of the viral marketing campaign. Word to those who haven't seen it yet...see it in the theater! You have to have the copious amounts of über-bass that can only be found in a movie theater. There will be no equal on the small screen.

Junior High, the age at which you ego is at its largest, and the brain is at its smallest.

Not until we get a chance to play with him first! God, I can't believe I actually signed up on a furry site post on this kids profile...I feel so unclean.

Huzzah! Another chance for OCRAPS to have some fun.

Sounds good, schwaltz. So far none of my friends have gotten the game. Kind of a bummer.

So I'm enjoying Advance Wars:DoR pretty well. I am especially liking the WiFi battles, except for every time I'm about to win, the punks I'm battling against either disconnect or surrender. Granted, in either scenario I am counted as the winner, but sill...there's nothing like delivering that final death blow to your opponent. I'm left feeling a distinct sense of loss.

I'll second that sentiment.

YES!!! For long years have I awaited BFD remixes, my prayers have finally been answered! I love the game and still play it from time to time, though some parts (like the final alien-boss-thing battle) seem so easy in theory, but caused some of the loudest, longest fits of swearing I've ever spewed. I love the Russian-esqu tango take on the song and feel that it fits well. It takes the Great Mighty Poo from the opera house and *plops* him onto the dance floor.

That doesn't bother me much, really. I didn't even notice that the CO powers were gone till last night. It feels like they're allowing you to do more with less. not letting you rely on the magics of anime inspired CO poses to win the battle.

Picked up AW:DoR yesterday and am impressed with it. I've played AW before and have always found it a solid game experience, though at times the cutesy graphics got old. The newer, darker, grittier feel of DoR is a welcome change to the game. I am loving the WiFi battle mode, a game function that was a given, considering the capability of the system. Which is not to say I'm any good at it, but I still enjoy it. I'm just glad that they didn't hold your hand and limit you to playing against friends only, like PokéMon. I like the random, world wide battles.

I went through the same trials last January, when I tried to find a DS. Took me forever, but I eventually found one. Seems January is a time of DS drought.

Damn, I must really be out of the OCR loop at this point. I never even knew this project existed. It does make for a nice surprise, though.

Sounds like my night, just replace WoW with Puzzle Quest. There are a couple of positives though, I discovered that Spaten Optimator Dopplebock ranks among the best beers ever brewed (and at 7.2% ABV does the job well), and I discovered that I ouzo is a very good thing.

Once again I guess that I will be "celebrating" the New Year alone, at home. marvelous

I have a friend who is studying for a year à l'Université de Sherbrooke. I guess she really likes the school. She says it's something of a hub for international students. Sounds amazing, though I guess the campus is sometimes bland and "prison-like" in its appearance.

YES! A gift that keeps on giving. I want to get one of those myself, and a home wine kit too. I've been wanting to make elderberry wine.

Well, Utah is #1 in the nation for people filing bankruptcies, so it makes perfect sense.

I've actually heard some good things about the gen 2 Zune, despite the squarcle. 8 GB starting at about $195.

Joyeux noël tardif.

Wolfgang Puck four knife and block set, a 20-piece cookware collection, a Sil-Pat, flannel pants, some gift cards, a distinct lack of gameage, and a healthy dose of holiday emotional instability/depression.

Utah...the dry, theocratic, anti-alcohol, stepford, hell hole of an excuse for a state.

We will all actually have even more reason to celebrate the day, next year, it being the 75th anniversary of Repeal Day. So all those too young to drink (I really think they should lower the legal drinking age to 19), you will have all the more reson to make up for it next year!
