Rarely do I give 10/10 but that is the best sig you ever made.

:shock:  10/10!!  Where did you find that awesome PSD!!!

I'm back from cleaning and organizing my computer again!  I'm just about to debut my new Mario Kart DS sig.  And, I finally got my Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector.  Unfortunately, I've been having some trouble with the installation process, but I'll try to have that problem solved sooner than later.

I'm just gonna go ahead and debut my new sig in a short while.  Stay tuned. ;)

Well, I'm now havin' the same glitch y'all had with y'all's sigs in the near past.  But, I managed to debut my new (done-from-scratch) avatar.  What do y'all think? :DJackov

dude that is not cool, the Big Rig games are a testament to a true gamers patience.

I picked up "Heartbreak & Triumph: The Shawn Michaels Story" for a decent £17.99 from Waterstones today. I just read the prologue and I am so fascinated to read more. Expect me to do some random rants/debates about parts of his autobiography.

Has anyone else purchased his book?

Just restarted Pokemon Blue.  Is it a good idea to make my Charmander into Charmeleon before I face Brock? dRehkJY

I highly suggest you do.  You won't have much force against his Rock/Ground type PKMN with just Normal attacks.  You should train your Charmander to learn the fire attack, Ember, which is more useful against those types than Scratch. :lol:  And, if you want to face him with a stronger team, you can train them to evolve into their new forms.

I always face gym leaders in level intervals of 5, beginning with level 15............'Cause that's how I roll, Pokemaniacs! :P

No I am going to get it for Christmas.  Anyway, I just posted my entry for me and melquans GFX League Battle, check it out!!

The problem has been solved with my signature. :D  Well....kinda :?

Now it won't let me show the bottom of the sig.  (The WWEv: Alternative tag)  heh  But I did manage to link my new Mario Kart DS sig to my old GeoCities website. :P

oh...And I'm still havin' problems with my USB Connector.  I might call Nintendo tomorrow about it.....or just e-mail.

So...What do y'all think about the new sig/av combo?

Sounds good.  Butterfree would be a great choice since it can put its foes to sleep with Sleep Powder.  Pidgey's Gust is a little too weak against Brock's types.  (Wing Attack may provide a stronger force, but only a little.  Sand Attack is also good for blinding a foe's accuracy.)  Rattata is nearly a lost cause against Brock. :P  And as for Pikachu.......well.......you'd be better off not using him against Brock, because no electrical attack will not be effective whatsoever.

Damn Chapter 1 was gripping.

I never knew Michaels lived in Reading, England when he was a child. Oh and damn, that story about his birth was very touching. Even though his pregnancy wasn't planned, and his mother refused to see him after he was born, I am glad things got sorted out quickly by the help of those nurses.

Great read so far.

I know that :P.  Anyway's, should I find a Kakuna/Weedil?  Or should I get the ones I have, minus Pikachu and Charmeleon, to their next forms? dRehkJY

I haven't played that game in soooooooooooooooo long. Since I was like 12. Maybe I'll look for it.

In my veteran opinion, you should get the PKMN you want in their very first evolutionary form and at their minimum level.  PKMN are a lot stronger when you raise 'em without any help from excessive items.  Rare Candys do indeed raise your PKMN's levels, but your stats will be much less.  So it's better to raise 'em the natural way.

To answer your question....Weedle.  And for your Pikachu, it's a great PKMN to use against Misty's Water-types. ;) 

Long time no see Matt. :)

I just ordered TNA: The Anthology set! It will get here in like a week, but totally worth the wait. I had to order it cause Wal Mart didnt have it on the store. How ironic it even said "Satisfaction Guaranteed". Oh well, at least the internet helps.

*checks off Christmas list*

[QUOTE="Pack_Man"]What are the awards like? I'm stumped. I only joined on July 11th. :P hbk91

quit with the teasing....we want to know

(i know this post is a little old)

I have set the release date to my new tournament on some time (early) next week.

I won't begin it this week 'cause I'm focusing nearly all my attention towards my finals and final projects.  Sorry for the long wait, but I've been mostly busy with college.  Fortunately, I've already made up the rules (with a couple of extras of course) and ready to begin it next week.

Well, time to finish up a final project.....And then, time for studying.....ALL WEEK LONG! :evil:  I'll see y'all when I see y'all.  In the meantime, have a nice night!

Just came back from the hospital. The operation went okay and I should be fine after the anesthesia wears off. It wasn't anything big, just something needed to be cleared properly and now it is.
