Now THAT is a decent idea.

How would "David Kash" be good? That would suck, more than most of you suck at judging things, which is alot.

I audibly groaned when I read this. I really like Kash, and he's getting a championship push. Please don't let this be true. And is Juvi gone as in released, or just off TV like I figured he would be? EDIT: Thank God, no break. EDIT 2: Juvi was released... damn. I liked him. Strange that they would announce that before tonight's Smackdown airs.

I haven't played KOTOR 2, but I'm becoming engrossed in the first game (just don't have as much time as I'd like to play) so I'm hoping someone will make a 3rd installment for the Xbox 360. Bioware is working on a Jade Empire sequel, however, along with some other new game so it'd probably have to be Obsidian again.

From Nintendo.com: http://www.nintendo.com/newsarticle?articl...8CfRY2Qum&page= I'm a Low-Down Dirty Snaker and Darn Proud of It Jan 05, 2006 To Snake or not to Snake? That is the question ... by NOA_Andy The definition of "snake," courtesy of Dictionary.com: Any of numerous scaly, legless, sometimes venomous reptiles of the suborder Serpentes or Ophidia (order Squamata), having a long, tapering, cylindrical body and found in most tropical and temperate regions. A treacherous person. Also called snake in the grass. The definition of "Snaking," courtesy of Nintendo NSider Forum member and Sage SHADOWLINK19: "Snaking makes use of the power slide technique in Mario Kart DS. Power sliding, or drifting (another word for it) is when you make your kart slide in a certain direction, and ... get a small speed boost. Snaking is when you power slide from one side of the track to the other side of the track." Snaking gets its name from the slithering motion that your kart appears to make when observed by other racers competing against you. People who employ this technique are often called "Snakers," and the second definition of "snake" listed by Dictionary.com above is certainly not lost on those who consider Snaking to be foul play. The speed boost SHADOWLINK19 mentions above is officially called a "Mini-Turbo," and this technique is easiest to perform when cruising around corners. Advanced players can execute Mini-Turbos continuously on straightaways, which essentially allows them to get extra speed boosts throughout the entire race. That is the advantage of Snaking. According to a recent press release, Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection has generated more than 10 million game connections and more than 550,000 unique visitors in the past seven weeks or so. It seems like these people have aligned themselves into two groups: those who Snake, and those who think Snaking is a crime. After reading my headline, you already know my position. I'm a Snaker and proud of it. I learned to Snake while playing Mario Kart: Double Dash!! for Nintendo GameCube, and I've improved the skill in Mario Kart DS. It's not easy to do, but it's a legitimate technique that was programmed into the game. It's the fastest way to get around the track, which makes it the best way to get around the track in my opinion. The most common argument coming from the anti-Snaking camp is that Snakers appear to jump around the screen when competing via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, making it difficult to hit the Snakers with Shells. Some even claim that the Snakers are exploiting a bug and gaining impossible speed boosts and advantages. I've competed against many Master Snakers (most of which are way, way better than me), and I've also observed their karts rapidly jumping left and right across the track. This is caused by the quick left-and-right steering motion that is required to get Mini-Turbos, and it is definitely NOT a bug. If you're fast enough to stay close to a Master Snaker, you'll see that the rapid motion and speed boosts are the result of crazy skills and nothing more. You'll also observe that a well-placed Green Shell will be just as effective against a Snaker as it is against a non-Snaker. Advice for Snaker-Haters If you're in the anti-Snaker camp, here are some tips: If your record isn't the greatest, try Rivals Mode and you'll be connected with players with skills similar to your own. Pick courses that are difficult to Snake on, such as Rainbow Road and Wario Stadium. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em. Fight fire with fire and give the Snakers a taste of their own medicine. Who knows? You just might like it. If you want to see my Snaking skills (or lack thereof) in action, your best bet is to connect to Worldwide Mode after midnight Pacific Time on most weekend nights. I also hit up Rivals Mode a lot. You'll know you're racing me when you see this ugly icon: Do you have an opinion about Snaking? I created this thread for you to speak your mind at the Nintendo NSider Forums. Let me know what you think!

If you're going to do that, can you at least tell us who it is? Unless Czech's right and it is Micah. Come to think of it, dude did sound Jewish.

Nope. All of us were sober.

Some friends and I were discussing aliens, which led to time travel, which led to the concept of time, which led to talk of the end of days, how it would come about, and how religion may or may not tie in. It was a fascinating 2 hour conversation between the 5 of us which we intend to pick up on tomorrow.

What the... That's a pretty odd comparison. Unless the rest oftheir catalogsounds nothing at all like "Steal My Sunshine", I can safely say that Len and Coheed have little to nothing in common.

Off topic, but seriously, man... Smock, Pennsylvania? SMOCK?! And yay on LCS. Now I need to finish GTA III and start Vice City on my Xbox... I'm a little behind, hehe. God dammit... Tower Records doesn't have Guitar Hero (I have a gift card) and I don't want to spend $70 cash on it. Maybe someone on CheapAssGamer will do a trade. They're usually cool about those things.

Flair-Angle was good, but HBK-Angle was better. Shelton vs. HBK was really good, but too short. I was fortunate enough to see Angle vs. HBK and Angle vs. Flair live at the arena.

Since 1997, has Rey ever even come close to having a legit match of the year?? I guess your only hope is fish-oil pills. I hear they swell heads. The Mysterio/Guerrero matches from 6/23 and GAB were the only WWE matches of 2005 even worthy of having MOTY spoken in the same sentence as them. *ahem* HBK vs ANGLE AT WRESTLEMANIA!!! No. If you don't at leastlist it as a WWE MOTY candidate, you know little to nothing about wrestling.

He could team with Val Venis in a team that would giveyou so many orgasms. Hey, don't be lumping Val in with that pathetic wrestler Shamrock. At least Val has a decent finish. We all know the Garvin Stomp is a better finish than Shamrock's version of the Ankle Lock. But see, LJ did/does have a strong, almost erotic in nature, obsession with those two, which is why I said that. But I heart you anyway, LuLu.

That Heart Throbs video was pretty funny, and was by far the best work they've ever done in WWE, in the ring or out.

Fall Out Boy, Green Day, Taking Back Sunday are good. In fact, Green Day has been my favorite band for over a decade. I don't see why so many people talk shit about them now, especially seeing as how they've released their greatest album yet. I guess that there are a lot of fans who will hate anything that becomes popular.

Why didn't they just keep him "dead"?

Flipper's Dick. Wait... already taken.

I love it like Prince Paul loves the cock.

Bobcat/Godfather's Ho.

Laz left the band.

OKAY.

Where have you been? I despise USC and it's not for the OU blowout. I'm definitely rooting for Texas. But if Texas loses I wouldn't care. I asked because I rarely read college football threads. I figured an Oklahoma fan, much less a student at the university, could never root for the Longhorns. But no big deal; I was just curious. Yeah, you definitely need to read these threads more. What.

What.
