Hardees was it's own restaurant until Carl's Jr. bought them out somewhere in the 90's. They're not exactly the same though. When I was in Montana there was a Hardees open 24 hours, but it had some stuff you don't see at Carl's, like real ice cream. The CJ's here in Denver don't have exactly the same menu and have those famous "six dollar burgers".

I went to a couple Pizza Huts in Korea when I was stationed there. Same taste, but they had some pizzas you'd never see in the States. One pizza had sweet potatoes around the edge of the crust or something crazy like that.

Ah, right. A Colorado man. I recall from the 2005 Tecmo Playoffs that the Broncos are your team. Well, I'm supposed to fly into Denver tomorrow evening. Hopefully all is clear by then. They say they'll reopen at noon Friday, so we'll see.</off topic>
Yeah, Colorado is pretty crazy right now. People are stranded at the airport and hardly anyone is driving on the roads. Looks like the worst is over though and flights might resume even before tomarrow at noon.

Favorite Nintendo Game

My firm belief is that Ocarina of Time is the best game ever. Outstanding storyline, great gameplay (and the Master Quest on GameCube is even better). I liked the gameplay better on Majora's Mask though, but overall I didn't think the game was as good.

I'm starting to like Twilight Princess better than both of them. It mixes elements from Link to the Past and Ocarina of Time, and I'm liking the story so far as well. I'm about 35 hours into the game and I'd like to think I'm at least halfway finished.

Besides Zelda, I always thought that Goldeneye was one of the best Nintendo games ever. I used to play the hell out of that game when it first came out. I don't think I could go back and play it anymore though, as I simply refuse to play FPS's with a controller anymore. After playing Unreal Tournament with a mouse and keyboard nonstop for about a year, I could never go back to the controller. I can't play Halo on XBox either.

&quot;Banning of OCPMovie&quot;
Link
https://originaltrilogy.com/post/id/259768/action/topic#259768
Time
It's no secret on these boards that a while back, I
criticized a certain project of Zion's, and was banned
for it shortly after - ridiculously immature behavior
by a mod. Can you imagine if I would BAN anyone who
criticized one of my edits? Ye gods. I would be a
spoiled child.

Zion has wanted to ban me permanently ever since, and
he's gotten his wish, as he feels these allegations
give him the right to edit and close any and all of my
threads and throw me out.

I am making this personal in that regard, as there was
certainly no reason to close my OCPmovie Megathread
over unrelated allegations true and false.

The mods have gone back and rewritten many, many, many
of my old posts to remove information.

I have been witchhunted and banned from these boards,
and for what?

For what purpose?


What I really can't understand is how this guy can go about his daily life pretending such nonsense is true. His arrogance is incredible.

#1, ocp was banned originally because of his childish behavior and reediting content back into posts that had been edited by mods. (And by childish I mean his mini-crusade of spam and trolling throughout half a dozen threads about how laserdisc was obsolete.) I banned him, yes, but it was in the agreement of Jay, Moth3r, and myself to do so, which is exactly the same thing with his banning now.

#2, Ah the "allegations". If you hadn't noticed ocp, I was actually giving you a pass at first because I thought you were just trying to sell your SWCE 2.0 to make some money for your move. I figured no big deal, just a warning and we'll leave it at that. But after we started getting more complaints about your selling habits, a bomb drops. I get a pm from someone with a copy of one of your emails regarding an inquiry for SWCE 2.0. As it turns out, not only was ocp selling his new DVD, but he's selling pretty much everything he has in his collection (including other fan edits and preservations from people like Moth3r, Wookie Groomer, Doctor M, Rikter, and dark_jedi among many others) for $10 each, $20 if it's dual layer, and an extra $10 for printed covers. Not only did ocp deny that he was doing this, but continues to act like this is only covering his costs. Give me a break dude. Blank DVDs are well under a dollar, and well under 2 dollars for dual layer. If you're trying to recover for your inability to burn media correctly, you still shouldn't be passing the financial burden onto everyone else. Like I said in the "megathread", I burn both single and dual layer DVDs all the time and I've only had about 2 bad burns in the last two years.

#3, this apparent foul vendetta I have against ocp is ridiculous. Sure, it's easy to just assume I hate the guy because he says bad things about myself and the X0 Project. Sure, it's easy to look at when he was banned and assume I'm trying to get rid of an X0 "competitor". The truth is I really don't hate anyone on this board. I'm really a pretty easy going guy and I could care less what anyone says about me, about my releases, or about the X0 Project. (And if you really must know, I'm an aspiring film student myself, one step away from being homeless as well, have about $200 to my name, and I'm waiting for my damn GI Bill money to come in so I can live past December. We all have hardships dude, it's called life.)

If you want to believe the X0 Project is just some kind of "publicity stunt" and it's never going to be released you go ahead and do that (the thousands of donated dollars we've received and endless media attention we're getting are great btw). If I was really trying to gain some notoriety from my releases, don't you think I would at least talk about them on this site? See, you didn't even know I did other stuff besides Star Wars, did ya? As for the X0, just wait and see what we've been able to do with the so-called crappy and obsolete laserdisc transfers.

Reminder: No profiting from fan edits or preservation efforts

In light of a certain person who has been found to be violating this rule, I just want to remind everyone that selling your stuff (or anyone else's stuff) for profit is not cool and you will be banned. We are not interested in seeing this place become a hub of illegal selling and profiting. If you contact another person on this board and they ask for more than the price of a blank disc and postage for a preservation or fan edit, tell them thanks but no thanks and let a mod know. There are countless people on this site who are willing and able to trade with you or even send you what you want for nothing at all.

So to review:

If you are found selling your own fan edits or preservations you will be banned.

If you are found selling anyone else's fan edits or preservations you will be banned.

If you are found selling bootleg copies of copyrighted material you will be banned.

I hope that's clear enough.

** The OCPMovie News &amp; Releases Megathread **

It has come to our attention that ocpmovie has been selling his DVDs for profit for quite a while. Initially, we thought that this was only a one-time thing. However, we've learned that he's been doing this for a long time. And not only is he selling his stuff, but also other people's stuff including just about every preservation and fan edit on this board as well as countless copyrighted DVDs. A few people have commented to me that they're surprised we didn't know about this already.

Let this put to rest any sort of rumor that the rules do not apply to certain people. If you are breaking the rules and we find out about it, you're gone. End of story.

You know for a lurker, you seem to know an awful lot about what's going on. I might even be so bold as to say you're a disgruntled ex-forum member who can't help but keep coming back to this place, especially when your good buddy's goodbye thread seems like it needs a "fresh perspective". So why not post the same crap you've been talking about on the other board for three months again and pretend you're an anonymous third party? Am I right? Of course I'm right.

Look Warbler, if you want to chime in why can't you just do it with your own damn screename instead of pretending to be someone else. Bad form.

From what I've played of it so far, it works out pretty well. You don't have to stand in front of your TV and swing your arm around like a maniac, you can just sit there and use a quick flick of the wrist. With the wand, you can either slash horizontally, vertically, or do a straight stab. You can do a spin attack by slashing the nunchuk horizontally. And if that wasn't enough, you can also do a jump attack by targeting and pressing A just like the other Zelda games. The control is a bit different for sure, but I think it's pretty cool. And I have yet to experience any sort of unresponsiveness or delay from the controller.

It's getting pretty middling reviews so far, so I expect it to be worth no more than a rental.

I'll let you know as soon as I play it, which hasn't happened yet. Wii Sports and Zelda won't let me move on to another game yet.

What a loss. I suppose now that all the "important people" left, there is no reason for any of us to be here any longer. Though if you look in the fan edit or preservation topics (you know, the ones relevent to the title and purpose of the site and to the art of fan editing) you wont see too many post bearing the name of these "most important people" anyway. However, if you look in the "Rankings" thread, you will find the majority of crappy fluff they have posted over the years. It is funny how little impact the supposed mass exodus had on this site as a whole. Unfortunately since then a nearly 100% tolerence for trolling has been adopted. It never ceases ro amaze me how much free time some people have on their hands.

Ooh! I just thought I might add, I love the way all the FE guys have changed there pic to dayv's DV helmet. I guess it is suppose to give us the eriee effect of dayv always watching us. So now everytime we are reading an old post it will be like ooooh theres dayv, the overly sensitive guy with the broken keyboard. Really classy stuff. Maybe tonight we can all get together and TP the principals house.

Classic.

I remember a time when Dayv got offended if anyone used that avatar. I guess now it just means the poster is "important".
