bee storm actually sounds better than dodonpachi 2

A more correct name would be Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! 2 But Also Bang! Leader Bee 2. Todd's Adventure in Slime World 2 is also acceptable if that's too elitist.

Astounding! You mean to say that you don't have any need whatsoever for icycalm's international standards commission?

Better than the Oscuro Nationalist Standard.

BTW can I call you Eddy Dark from now on? I'm finding it difficult to eat my freedom fries while your alias is threatening my identity.

No. Also, wrong topic, Josh!

But here's my flag: ZUN

i wish the whole thing had been written in japanese, that way i wouldn't have bothered reading it.

I didn't bother reading it. Was it good?

jpj · Post by **jpj** » Wed Mar 26, 2008 11:34 pm

it depends; do you find 5,000 word rants funny, or irritating?
basically: everything about japanese arcades is great. if you don't realise this you are gay (but with more bile)

There is nothing any of you can do about this

tee hee

It saddens me that your two moments of genius in this thread went unappreciated in the end.

So let me just say, this and the Yoshi's Story comments were the highlights of this nonsense for me.

Now see, you were fine up to this point. But this is FUCKING UNNECESSARY.

I wonder if you can resist flaming me.

It would have been, if he hadn't also said this to me:

Don't confuse "acting on something caused by massive amounts of insecurity" with "self respect"

Ed Oscuro · Post by **Ed Oscuro** » Thu Mar 27, 2008 6:13 pm

I'm still willing to discuss that original post I made minus the offensive (?) bits. Despite the "anti-weeaboo" arguments and such it really doesn't bother me that you guys do things that way; what I wanted to discuss was the fact that no matter what your argument is mainly indecipherable (what isn't based on the blatantly obvious elitism, that is).

We cool now?

Sometimes I need to think before typing... but I need to get this out. I cannot hold this in much longer.

I sold most of my collection (about a year ago) consisting mostly of shmups. I still play games, but I'm not really a shmup'er anymore... I feel like a disgrace!

What causes you to slip a gear whenever somebody aims the mildest criticism your way?

icycalm · Post by **icycalm** » Thu Mar 27, 2008 6:20 pm

What makes you so fascinated by me that drives you to post more in my thread than everyone else, including me?

Twiddle · Post by **Twiddle** » Thu Mar 27, 2008 6:22 pm

You're pretty fascinating in the schadenfreude sense

Ed Oscuro · Post by **Ed Oscuro** » Thu Mar 27, 2008 6:23 pm

Have you ever started up The Game of Life and set up a colony just to watch it spin in circles, expanding and contracting, forever?

Your pointing out is pretty good, i noticed

Any more fans here? Post before the lock.

(Hint to the powers-that-be: If this had been my forum I would have deleted this thread three pages ago, and banned half the people posting in it, including me.)

You usually seem to be half a person, so I guess that counts.

Great. I'm glad it's not your forum, the thread was still entertaining then. You can always tell that a thread is getting stale when "PVP" is spammed, though. Hopefully anything productive that might have come out of this has already been accomplished.

One last thing:
