[b][size=1] That looks real professional o_O I can't really say much else, because I don't have Photoshop etc, so I don't know how easily stuff like that can be pulled off..[/b] But that looks so nice. And I'm guessing it's not easy to do, lol.[/size]

[size=1][b]How often do you visit?[/b] Everyday. Although now and then I realise I'm getting worse, so I'll just miss a day on purpose. And if anything important pops up, I'll miss weeks at a time, lol. I mainly just read stuff now though. [b]Average length of visits?[/b] Can't really average it. Holidays, somedays I won't come on at all, and others I'll sit here from about 8PM to 5-6AM. And in the summer holidays (unless my cousins don't come over), I don't even visit. On schooldays, it can be anything from half and hour to even four hours. [b]Longest stay?[/b] I spend more time IMing with OB people than visiting OB, lol. But once while I was doing coursework for this ugly deadline, I stayed up through the night, and continued until night again (checking OB every half an hour or so, lol) So longest stay is about 22 hours >.> [b]What forums do you visit?[/b] GD (Silly 'lounge' -.-), the poetry forum, the feedback forum, adventure arena, DBZ forum (now and then), art and design, banner request forum, and the spriting forum. EDIT: How could I forget the FF forum... [b]Why do you stay at OB?[/b] Because it's the first Board I ever visited, and I've grown used to it. Everywhere just seems out of place. And horribly different, because I don't know anybody.[/size]

[size=1]Zack was pretty pleased with himself. He felt afterall, that he had taken down more of the cheaper targets than Freya had, and so was in the lead. He was smiling a smug grin when the Square Assistant burst into tears of laughter. [b]'...what?'[/b] She gathered herself, and holding back her laughing, she tried her best to answer his little question. [color=crimson][b]'I have never seen anyone shoot a human target in all the three years that I've worked here for... and you shot two!'[/b][/color] Zack felt a big red blush coming on, so he gave his best goofy toothed grin. He didn't know he had played [i]that[/i] well. The lady was still looking at him, and he was beginning to feel slightly embarassed. He scratched his head. [b]'So whatcha think?' [color=crimson]'I think you're an idiot'[/color] 'WHAT?' [color=crimson]'You just got 2000 points deducted from your total ^_^ '[/color] 'That was never mentioned to us!' [color=crimson]'Well you shouldn't go around shooting people, then!'[/b][/color] Insert Zack in anime drop to floor. Insert Freya with large anime sweatdrop. ------ EDIT: Sorry, didn't see this page -.-' It's OK though, I lost in my post too, lol ¬.¬[/size]

[b][size=1] I felt I had to post because I liked this so much, Mitch, lol. I don't really know what to say. Everything I would've asked/commented/mentioned though, had I not been talking to you over AIM, lol:[/b][/size] [FONT=times new roman][b][color=red]AJ:[/b][/color] read it [b][color=red]AJ:[/b][/color] it is absolutely brilliant [b][color=red]AJ:[/b][/color] but one thing I don't get >.> [b][color=red]AJ:[/b][/color] first line, lol [b][color=red]AJ:[/b][/color] "You sure grooved Daaron today, Mitch," [b][color=red]AJ:[/b][/color] whassat mean? [b][color=blue]Mootch:[/b][/color] Okay, I'll explain. [b][color=blue]Mootch:[/b][/color] There's this video we had to do in gym. [b][color=blue]Mootch:[/b][/color] "Daaron's dance grooves" [b][color=blue]Mootch:[/b][/color] It shows you how to do the dances. [b][color=red]AJ:[/b][/color] oh [b][color=blue]Mootch:[/b][/color] For videos like Nsync and stuff. [b][color=blue]Mootch:[/b][/color] Just to be mean. [b][color=blue]Mootch:[/b][/color] Post if you like. ^_^ [b][color=red]AJ:[/b][/color] I am [b][color=red]AJ:[/b][/color] lol[/FONT] [size=1]^_^[/size]

[b][size=1] Bleh.. same banner, lol. Kenji recommended a lil tweaking, so I did that, and this is what it came out as.. I dunno.. looking any better?[/b] And I know I didn't make it any less plain, lol. Partly because I wanted the same sorta look; partly because I was only aiming to 'tweak' the thing; and partly because I'm that lazy. o.- Anyway, a little better, thanks to some Nephy..: [img]http://otakuboards.com/attachment.php?s=&postid=389484[/img][/size]

[size=1] The crowd went suddenly deathly quiet, as they realised that the match had already ended. They booed and tried to throw empty popcorn boxes and the likes through the cage. Yojiro could've atleast taken his time and given the crowd what they wanted. As he began to make his way to the cage door, Yojiro noticed Tournament officials walking his way. And he realised that they would not accept such a short battle so easily. He stopped casually, and waited for the announcement. [b][color=red]Ladies and Gentlemen, this is the OB Tournament Head Co-ordinator speaking. We have an important announcement to make, which we are sure would interest you all very much. We would first ask you to remain calm, and return to your seats. Refreshments will be brought round again immediately. Tate has decided to forfeit his first round match against Bayushi Yojiro. As according to our rules, if any match is ended in any way within the space of the initial two minutes, then the winner must take another match against another fighter! Ladies and gentlemen... KAISUKE![/b][/color] The crowd roared in excitement once again. Yojiro let out an annoyed sigh. The cage walls collapsed outwardly, onto a part of the crowd below, that had gotten out of their seats to get a better view (or a better popcorn shot at Yojiro). A few more officials came with a young man following closely behind. So this was the one who had only come 17th.. ---- There. Now that gives zerosaber a fight to get into round two. No easy way 'round on this RPG =p[/size]

[b][size=1] If you don't change what you make, then you'll just end up with the same regurgitated sick that everyone'll get bored of too quickly. I mean, out of all the games I've played (and they're not that many, lol) I prefer the materia system by far. But that doesn't mean that I expect Square to keep that going on in every FF since just because it was well liked. What's wrong with trying something a little more original for once? [/b]*gets caught in 'original' moment, and disappears to go make another somewhat creative and second-rate banner* o_O[/size]

[b][size=1] Lol. Dammit. I actually knew the lyrics to a lot of the song (not the translation though) All I remember right now is 'Veni Veni Venias', lol. And the song I'm sure, is in Latin.[/b] *goes to Media Player, to atleast catch Latin lyrics* -.-'[/size]

[b][size=1]Recently, I've gotten into the trend everyone's been getting out of, lol. You know, how everyone makes the complicated swirly backgrounds that you can stare at for ages and not get bored... them. And as a few people may have noticed, I used a little of that stuff in a few of my previous banners. (Compliments of Kenjeh =D) Well even more recently, I've gotten into those pixel fonts that everyone uses too, lol. (Hey, I like small fonts..) So yeah. I'm trying to mix that stuff a little into my usual ploppy 'style' (lol) of random banner-making a little more. [img]http://otakuboards.com/attachment.php?s=&postid=388923[/img] --------- [/b]The first one I've made so far.. comment/criticize, everyone? ^_^[/size]

[size=1][b]*totally agrees with GinnyLyn* The dress and those things on Juu's hair in the piccy... s[i]ooo[/i] much like Lulu, lol. I like the Queen's dress a lot. Looks Cinderella-ey, lol.[/b] *stares at funny Legolas plushie*[/size]

[b][size=1][color=crimson]--WARNING! WARNING! ALL CUSTOMERS INSIDE THE SPEEDCOASTER PLEASE KEEP HANDS WITHIN VEHICLE AT ALL TIMES--[/color] [/b]Zack was confused beyond confusion. Customers? Vehicles? They were in a simulator for heaven's... and why should they have to keep their hands inside? You would think they'd say something about the possible hazards regarding the usage of the laser targetting sniper rifles, but [i]nooo[/i]. [b][color=crimson]--THE AIM OF THIS GAME IS SIMPLE. SHOOT EVERYTHING THAT MOVES AND POSSIBLY ANYTHING THAT DOESN'T. POINTS WILL BE GIVEN FOR ACCURACY, DIFFICULTY, AND NUMBER OF TARGETS SHOT. THE WINNER IS THE CONTESTANT WITH THE MOST POINTS--[/color][/b] Zack lifted the fairly weighty gun and mounted it upon one shoulder. He looked down through the eyepiece, making sure beforehand that his gun was not faulty. Freya seemed to have already had done the same. The lights dimmed out, and as they flashed back on, the high and steep track ahead could be seen clearly. Everything was a wonderful clashing glory. The voice boomed on a little more.[b] [color=crimson]--EARNING MORE THAN THREE THOUSAND POINTS CAN ALSO GET YOU A SPECIAL PRIZE. GOOD LUCK AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, ENJOY THE RIDE!--[/b][/color] Zack could hear the whirring of the carriage, as it slowly began to move into the bright neon sky. Or atleast, he could hear through his headpiece the virtual whirring of the virtual rollercoaster carriage as it stood exactly where it was. The carriage reached the highest point in the first arc, and Zack could see the targets. He steadily aimed at one, and followed its movements slowly, zooming in slowly; all the while waiting for the claxon to go off. He felt the coaster beginning to dip, and as it began to roll down its tracks ever so slowly at first, Zack began to wonder if any 'begin' alarms would be rung. [b][color=crimson]--WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARK!--[/b][/color] The carriage moved fast. Zack tried to shoot. Freya tried to shoot. The carriage moved faster. Zack jerked back. Freya jerked back. Both of them hit the track. And their first easy target had escaped and faded away. [b][color=red]......[/color] 'Is it just me or are we going horribly fast?' [color=red]'It isn't just you'[/color] 'Well then tell me. Did those targets look like people to you too?' [color=red]'Yes'[/color][/b] Maybe Zack should have taken the Event Square, after all...[/size]

[b][size=1] Not really into cars, but that looks real nice, lol. Only thing I find off is the writing. It's kinda small and unclear, and the 'p' drops into the border. But I [i]really[/i] like the positioning =)[/b] *stares at plate and wets pants* AJ...[/size]

[b][size=1] Silly Neil.. whoever said all the matches would have the same rules? *cover-up coughs* ¬.¬[/b] Now there's a thought...[/size]

In front of both pairs of fighters.. a heavy-set cube-shaped steel cage of about 30 feet in length, floors covered with random thrown in items. Magazines, toilet roll, baseball bats.. not necessarily weapons. The four are lead into their cages, the only gate in locked and bolted shut. They search the floor for anything of damaging value. Nothing. Just random obstacles to trip over. It seemed they would have to duke it out hand-to-hand first... [b]During matches, I'll thrown in your weapons when it gets dull. ;)[/b][/size]

[b][size=1] It'll be like it should've been before, lol. The only thing is, we're not really on a rollercoaster... just on a moving simulator, wearing headgear and stuff. (So instead of aiming at virtual targets on a real rollercoaster, we'll be shooting at virtual targets on a virtual rollercoaster) -.-[/b] Silly advancing technology ¬.¬[/size]

[quote][size=1][b]People In[/b] Bayushi Yojiro - Zerosaber007 Tate - Tatum-X (possibly dummy now) Xra - Xra Link - Krillen Nomoku - aYokano Donnie Yen- AJeh Jet Li - Psyco Terrence Kittana - Juuthena Conan The Barbarian - Bruce Lee - Shinobi Vegeta - Schratn9 Velius Excalibur - Tasis Arano Karakkaze - Medra Lacrois s'Xalerian - The Harlequin Sango - G.D.

Anywayone who has made it through, please '[/b] The man got off the chair he had clambered onto, to get high enough amongst the excited racket of the fighters in the large waiting room. Out of the 4,286 who had signed-up for OtakuBoard's first ever no holds barred knockout tournament, only 16 had made it through. A huge sea of mutterings and murmurings waved over the room, after the man had read out the list of the lucky 16 that had made it through. What was once an air of pure self-confidence turned into something of a grunt-fest.. spite and yells of an accused 'set-up'. The man sat down in his chair and sighed. It was kind of funny to see all the macho mister muscles have to exit the building, because smallest ones had made it through. He suddenly remembered that the few that had gotten in would now be making their way into the waiting room. He stood back on the chair again, and calmly shouted out in his clearest voice. [b]'All those who managed to get in, congratulations! And welcome to the OB Tournament! I would like to ask everyone to meet up here momentarily before we continue. First of all, we would like to make sure that everyone has read the rules of this Tournament..'[/b] He met the nodding of many heads, so he continued. [b]'The first match-up is [color=red]Bayushi Yojiro[/color] against [color=red]Tate[/color]. Would both fighters please leave for the first arena in the OB Tournament thread please?'[/b] Two fighters split from the group, and left through a side door. [b]'The next match-up will be [color=red]Xra[/color] against [color=red]Link[/color].. which will also begin now. Both fighters, please make your way towards the second arena in the OB Tournament thread.'[/b] Another two, slowly out of the waiting room, leaving 12 fighters together in an awkward silence. [b]'OK. You guys have a little chat with each other, or something. I have to discuss the following match-ups with my co. Thank you.'[/b] And with that, the short announcer also walked out through the door.[/size]

[size=1] Zack slowly paced his way towards the Speed Square. It had been a good couple of years since he had last played here, and he had heard that they had re-done the Square on a massive scale once back about five years ago, and had begun to re-style it again this year. He silently wondered to himself what the inside would look like now. He pushed open one of the double-doors, and the coloured lights inside flooded his view completely. [b]'!!!!'[/b] He noticed Freya was also there in front of him. She was also peering about the room, a hand covering her eyes from the bright neon multi-coloured lights. [b]'Hey..'[/b] She turned around.[b] 'Looks like I'm up against you, hehe..'[/b] She said nothing. So Zack decided to follow suit. He walked over to the counter, Freya following close behind. [b][color=deeppink]'Sir, are you part of the Survivor challenge?'[/color] 'Yep'[/b] He gestured towards Freya, indicating that she was with him. [b][color=deeppink]'Sir.. madam... right this way, please..'[/b][/color] The woman from behind the counter led the two to what seemed to look like a single ground-mounted roller coaster carriage. Zack and Freya, both quite puzzled, sat down in bewilderment. The woman began to explain. [b][color=deeppink]'We at Gold Saucer value our customers very highly, as as such, we have recently gone to extra measures to make our rides extra safe. This means that our previous virtual speed-round roller coaster ride has been replaced with a new and improved (and safer) vrtual speed-round roller coaster ride [i]simulator[/i]!'[/b][/color] Freya twitched. Zack twitched. The woman from behind the counter had already been twitching from ebfore their arrival... --- Teh psychotic o_O[/size]

[b][size=1] OK.. [/b] We'll have a side-thread going at the same time as the tournament. At the most, two battles will take place at any one time. [img]http://otakuboards.com/attachment.php?s=&postid=388323[/img] So looking at the table, the first two matches to be running while we're all uh.. 'developing' in the waiting thread will be: [b]Bayushi Yojiro vs Tate[/b] and, [b]Xra vs Link[/b] As soon as one match ends, the next match will begin in its place. Matches will last (hopefully) a minimum of 3 posts from each fighter. I'm hoping that the average fight however, will be drawn out into about 8-12 posts. Once either a battle seems to be slowing down; or it is extremely apparent that one RP'er is obviously more than a match for their opponent; or one person quits; or any other reason of that type of nature, the judges will announce who they feel is the clear winner of the match. This will be based on RP-ing creativity in the fight, and post quality. After the winner has been announced by the judges (Myself and Shinny), the loser can be killed/defeated/humiliated in anyway that the winner so chooses in a final match-post.. sort of like the Mortal Kombat 'fatality' idea. If anybody at any time feels they would like to drop-out due to whatever personal problems, just PM or IM either Shinny or myself. We'll work around it by turning your character into a dummy, lol. If anybody cannot come online for whatever reasons for a while, contact me, and I'll alter the match-ups (or the ordering of the matches) so that I can help stall for as long as possible. Anyway, enjoy! (And you better had do too, lol. That table took me a lifetime -.-) [b]We decided to stick with the judges idea, because we decided it would ruin the Waiting Room thread if we kept on discussing between our characters who would win (and so decide the winner). We obviously weren't going to put polls up because of the insane number of times we would have to create new threads for the polls. And PM-ing votes wouldn't work, in that you may think we have cheated/altered the results and lied to you all; and the fact that then this thing would be one giant popularity contest thing. So yeah. We're sticking with the judges idea, and we swear not to cheat in our matches. ;)[/b] ADDITION: After your fight, you may return to the waiting room thread. Even if you lose, unless your opponent felt merciless enough to just outright kill you.. which will mean you are immediately gone from the RPG, lol. So your continual in the RPG (waiting room only though) if you lost your battle will depend solely on how your battle ended. (ie: if you're dead, you're dead; and if you've just only been beaten to hell, you can return to the waiting thread.) Oh, and feel free to talk to your opponents if you feel out-of-luck. If you don't want to die, we can't stop you from striking deals, lol. Feel free to ask any more questions. [/size]

[b][size=1] OK, we start tomorrow, hopefully then. No more sign-ups accepted as of this post. We'll start off with the 16 that are up. Any drop-outs will be treated as Non Playable Characters that you can godmod in your match-up against them, if you so wish. I'll get the random knockout table up ASAP. A question for you guys though... something I never thought about.. QUESTION: Do we have all the matches going on at the same time, or one by one? See having them one by one gives time for some possible storyline development (James did classify this as an RPG over AIM with Shinny), but means that people will have to wait for their fights. However, putting all fights at once would get horribly confusing when reading and trying to keep track of everything; although it will mean that everyone will have basically a no-wait time. [/b]Or maybe we could do it in batches? As in 2 or 4 battles at a time, or something? It's all upto you guys..[/size]

[b][size=1] Those gloves look so real. Semji, you are an awesome airbrush artist. I don't really like MM either, but that wallpaper seriously looks like a drawn picture behind real gloves.[/b] I didn't even see the mOBSCENE the first time I looked at it, lol.[/size]

[b][size=1] I never knew you made comics ¬.¬ But then, I don't know you that well Shy, lol. I like the Omar-in-the-robot best too. He looks so.. emotionally driven, lol. This are teh coolies.[/b] *came into thread wondering if Shy meant friends for Bosko* >.>[/size]

[b][size=1] Nice pictures =) They don't seem abnormal at all, lol. They look real cool. I didn't notice the hand in the pocket being small in the first one, but I thought the girl's head seemed a little pushed forward. [/b] Welcome to OB, lol.[/size]

[b][size=1] I didn't notice the black and white - to - colour thing that was going on in the banner until I read Semjaza's post, lol. I thought it was pretty clever though. [img]http://otakuboards.com/attachment.php?s=&postid=387125[/img] I didn't really like the black-grey spray effect thing in the back. It was kinda distracting.[/b] OMG! No Legolas, lol..[/size]

[b][size=1] This sounds sorta like Takeshi's Castle, down here, lol. Maybe it's the American version of it? Or maybe it's just something like it..[/b] Well anyway, Takeshi's Castle is funny, lol. [Go Craig Charles] -.-[/size]

[b][size=1] 'You would think they had some sort over reason for throwing me over a net, and onto an oncoming hard and fast volleyball, but..[/b]no[b]'[/b] That cat looks like a monkey to me, lol.[/size]
