[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by jcgoudy [/i] [B][color=indigo]Wow... really old thread... You've never heard of the Goron Mask!?! It's one of the four transformation masks that you get in the game. There's the Deku Mask, Goron Mask, Zora Mask, and Fierce Deity's Mask. Each of which transforms you into a Deku Scrub, Goron, Zora, and Fierce Deity, respectively.[/color] [/B][/QUOTE] Yeah... about the Fierce Diety's mask.... I distinctly remember a stone statue saying that it has the power of all the other masks combined or summit... and it just makes you turn into that fierce diety guy... what's goin on with that? or does it just mean that you need all the other masks first?

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Sephiroth [/i] [B]no, you can't use a tripod for the PSG-1....[/B][/QUOTE] I thought not. It was just bugging me. though I found a neat trick yesterday where the little dog in the caves takes a leak up your cardboard box... ha ha! Damn that elusive camera!

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Squashed Snail [/i] [B] Well if you're I.Q. is 168, you're gonna have to prove it too me..... [/B][/QUOTE] I wouldn't count on that. I remember reading his thread in intro. He's thimoc.. so I doubt his IQ is over 60

I don't know how I got here... I don't remember... I'm serious. I came on for a few weeks back in v2. not long enough to get well known or anything, and I wasn't Deus Ex Machina back then (I hadn't even known of that phrase). It must have been just weeks before it changed to v3, cos when I came back everything changed and I wasn't there anymore, so I just left it at that and almost forgot this place existed. About 4 months later I thought to myself- 'hey, what about that 'otakuboards' place I went to before'.. So I came back and signed up as Deus Ex Machina.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by DuoGod of Death [/i] [B]Hey my prayers are with you! But don't give up hope yet! My grandmother has been diagnosed both with Lukemia and Alzthiemers....They gave her 2 more months to live...its been 3 years and 2 months...sadly tho we don't think she is gonna live much longer....not more than 2 weeks... [/B][/QUOTE] yeah, that's kind of what's happened here. He was given two months to live, and that was... actually I think it was 6 months ago. But in the last week or so he's really deteriorated. He looks like he's aged by 10 years.

A perfect world needs perfect people. That is unlikely to happen.... Bah... I just cant think of anything else.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by D. Dark [/i] [B]Worst question: Why is the sky blue? Why isn't it green, or red? AGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! How the heck should I know! I'm just a child! Leave me alone! *runs off and cries* [/B][/QUOTE] Gas, my friend, the sky is blue because of gas. not sure which gas though. Anyway. I dunno about dumb questions, but when a worked at... I'm not telling you where I work.. Not out of fear of being 'visited', but out of sheer embarassment that I worked there. Anyway... some old guy who I was serving kept calling me 'george'.... and my name's not george.... ALSO. Where I work now... [i]Sports Soccer[/i].. Some guy in the queue for the till was on his mobile and he shouted 'I'm in that Soccer shop.. Soccer Sports, next to HIV' :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: (he meant H[i]M[/i]V)

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Sephiroth [/i] [B]people put way too much emphasis on to graphics, I prefer gameplay over graphics anyday.... [/B][/QUOTE] EEK! Seph, what happened to your avatar.... seph? you're not seph!!! it's a fake! j/k. I agree, though. I prefer good gameplay to graphcs anyday. Every time I play Metal Gear Solid now, I have to skip the FMVs cos they get irritating after the 1st time round. Great game though.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by () [/i] [B] Well actually,on the internet...there isn't much need to lie...No one really knows you...so you can tell them anything you can't tell people you know...Its much easier to be truthfull online... [/B][/QUOTE] I really should say [i]exactly[/i] what I'm on about in my posts... it would avoid misunderstandings such as this. I meant certain types of people that can not interact with people easily in the real world due to certain... personal and psychological problems. Normal people like us have no reason to lie. Even 'nerds' have no reason to lie. But mentally disturbed people have been known to go on the internet and lie about who they are. If you met them in real life, they would find it extremely difficult to conceal their problems. [i]That[/i], my friend, is what I was referring to. I should really have made that clear in the first place.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Sephiroth [/i] [B] I think the real world is the only world where you can experience pain and suffering, the only place where you can find out the truth, and be lied to, the real world sucks.... [/B][/QUOTE] I disagree with the 'lied to' bit. It's far easier to lie on the net. cos no one knows you, no one can see you. You can say what you want and no one knows differently. At least in the real world you an usually tell when someone is lying.

...or two questions maybe When you face sniper wolf for the first time, if you contact nastasha by codec, she says something about if you have a tripod you can use that with your sniper rifle. I was wondering if anyone knew.. Is there a tripod in Metal Gear Solid? also... where on earth is that camera? It's beginning to irritate me the amount of places where it is [i]not[/i]....

I think I put on the Zora mask and used them boomerang type fins the zora has. that works too, but not from too far away.

The real world. There's a saying... 'Its a small world'. That's true. Even after you finish high school you will bump into old friends in the strangest places. But at the same time, one person in a world is not able to make the difference that theysometimes fool themselves into thinking they can. Deus's verdict - Its a small world, with small people.

I have decided to make a 'dedication thread' for my mum's boss, prof. Richard Johannson. He is a consultant in obstetrics(one of the few words I'm unsure of the spelling for) at the North Staffordshire Hospital. He is dedicated to his research into making child birth safer for everyone (did you know the amount of bad things that can happen, but no one talks about them? It's scary!). He really is a great guy. He once invited me and my brother round his house after this big barbecue thingy. Who else's mum's boss would do that (and I mean, this was a big house).To my mum, he's more than a boss, he's also a great friend. Now for the tragedy. Richard has been diagnosed with cancer. four months ago, he was given two months to live, and seemed to be doing alright, but he has deteriorated badly these last few days, and my mum thinks he has only weeks to live. I think it's safe to say that all that know him will miss him...

I never had that problem here, but sometimes when I use netscape rather than I.E. it only loads part of the thread.. or none of the thread. It's really irritating, so I try to get on a computer that has IE.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Char-Char,Mander-Char! [/i] [B]D.Dark, to your first 5 questions: Wouldn't they look weird if they were different colors?:cool: And the 6th question's answer: Genes, though they don't help us much these days... 1)If the Universe is infinite how can it be expanding? 2)Who thought up the whole "red means stop-green means go" rule? 3)How come when you download the "latest" AOL version there's always a newer version the next morning? 4)How do people think up these questions? 5)Why do little kids ask "why" all the time? 6)What [B]exactly[/B] is this:freak: [/B][/QUOTE] I know these... or some of them... 1) because infinity can get bigger.. but it's still infinite. You can multiply infinity by any number and it will still be infinity, but from inside it will appear to expand.. or something. (this is the [i]only[/i] serious answer in this post) 2) some guy who didnt like the colour red 3) they want to see how many times an average person downloads 4) i dont know, how did you think up those questions 5) to annoy you 6) either a three eyed smiley or a guy who got shot between the eyes.

*claps wildly* only one problem I can see there... the people that you're talking about won't take any notice. Or maybe they'd just write an obnoxious reply. But.. I agree.

Man, me and my friends must be weird. Everyone else wants swords, we were contemplating getting a sniper rifle.... only kidding... I think... what the hell... you can have a sword.. just don't hit people with the sharp edge.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Gold_Angewomon [/i] [B]According to Emode.com, my IQ is 119. :bawl: I feel dumb compared to all of the geniuses here! Oh well. :shrug: I guess 119 is better than nothing. [/B][/QUOTE] average IQ is 100... so that's not bad at all. I found a 'high IQ society' website yesterday, just out of curiosity after reading this thread, and the IQ required to get in is 126... so youre not far off what's considered 'high IQ'. By the way. the emode one is weird. It's not accurate. It put me as a 131 IQ, whereas it is actually higher. Also, I did it twice, and not only did I get different IQ's but I also got different intellectual types... which is not good. I say emode's IQ tester is flawed. Try the one in my post, above.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Sephiroth [/i] [B] I think that happens throughout most of the UK, lol.... anyway, when it DOES snow in the UK, I hate it, not only is it freezing cold, but my toes begin to freeze up and feel like they're gonna fall off, thats the most uncomfortable expercience.... and not only that, but almost straight after it snows, it starts to rain, and when that happens the snow turns into ice, and when you have a snowball fight.....there's gonna be some bruises.... [/B][/QUOTE] Nah.. round here in *cough*[size=1]stoke[/size]*cough* when it rains, the snow just turns to mushy watery snow... ice is left over snow from a few days back.. you're right though... over here we get way too much rain and not enough snow.
