Geez... you're a weirdo, Nanner. How can you not like Final Fantasy? Do you just not like RPGs in general?

I'd say that praxis ring in the special editions is indicative to radiation. So... in the special edition, everybody dies from radiation poisoning a few seconds after the part at the end. Only in the original versions do the good guys survive at the end.

I don't see how that's at all "playing a prank." All the Limited Edition label meant was that they'd stop being produced in December. They'll continue to be sold as long as there's stock to be sold.

I always thought it was funny that Jayne shared a name with my aunt. Mosquito renames him Susan... the name of my other aunt.

And when the hell did Yoda and Obi-Wan have any involvement in creating the Rebel Alliance?

EDIT: "He arranged to be captured by a group of Jawas"? What in the hell? Who wrote this?!

Rather brief essay, and it does little to convince me. It's all speculation and provides very little canonical detail to back up any of his claims. And I think it's complete bullshit that the Death Star plans were in R2 before Leia met up with him at the beginning of the movie.

I guess it is kind of nice to say goodbye rather than just disappearing and not ever posting again. But every single goodbey thread I have ever read on this site give a million reasons why they are leaving and how awfully bad their feeling got hurt.

An ideal goodbye letter would be something like:

"Alright guys I am moving on. I had a good time here, but it is time I move on"
or
"I don't feel like I get along very well with some members of this community, I have had a good time here for the most part. But I think it is time I move on"

If somebody ever posted something like that, I would not find it annoying at all. But every single good bye thread seems like it is either their way of giving the finger as they drive off, or it is them wanting to get attention and inform the whole community that all their troubles in life are due to us and that they will be accepting apologies.

I am surpirsed Zig's post didn't say he would stay if at least 70 of us would sign a petition asking him not to leave. In a way I am sorry to see him go, he was pretty funny sometimes. Things like the petition to get paint wars going again was fantastic. Not to mention Paint Wars was kind of interesting and made even more so by his flakey nature of abandoning it and returing to it constantly.

I agree. I don't mind a good bye thread is it is simply that. Like, a while back, JediSage I think, posted a goodbye thread saying there were some things he needed to do, and that he would be gone for a while. That's cool, and, in fact, I encourage that, because I like to know what my fellow posters are up to rather than them just disappearing. Making a melodramatic exit and burning bridges in the process is just dumb and immature, mostly because there have been enough of them lately to know that nobody's going to take you seriously here if you do.

So apparently you've gone to the desert. That means you've now passed me. I've been spending the time tracking down and killing about 20 Imp Poes and other such sidequests and minigames. This game has too many of them. Gaaaah!

Obi Jeewhyen was neither a female nor a gynecologist. In fact, I believe he was a lawyer.

Um, I've been posting in our Video Game thread all day. It's currently two threads down from this thread, so I'm not sure what you're talking about as far as us not liking video games.

Thanks to Prima, I can tell you how I did it: Left, down, right, right, up, left, up, up, left, down, down, right, and up. ^_~ Maybe if I hadn't been about to be late for a rehearsal, I wouldn't have gotten so easily frustrated with it. But I still think it was stupid.

Honestly, I never could figure it out. I finally got frustrated and just used the strategy guide, something I never do on major puzzles. But the puzzle in Wind Waker was easy. However, I'm a bit upset that you've managed to catch up to me. I'll have to use your momentary weakness to surpass you the way things should be! ^_^

Yeah, but that's intrinsically flawed considering that they're connected by story.

Sorry, I didn't clarify. They exist in both timelines, but depending on which timeline, one comes before the other, and that covers the bases of which game you play first. It sounds a little silly and rationalizing, but it's the only way I can justify the similar introductions of checking on the Triforce in a temple that occurs in both games, etc.
