ƒ(x)=healberry³'s shout trail with THE INTERNET - Help.com

heh, okay, thanks for the warning.

oh, i recently invited you to a post about videogame stuff, dont click it, we got into mother 3 spoilers :/

i beat gyigas yesterday with some friends who were newer to the series.
then i showed them all of the places and stuff to do, and we spent an hour trying to fight hippies, we were too strong so we just kept auto winning :(
I may just start again anyways.
also I am back home for a week so I have aim back and such

Hehe :]

Aww, I have the cure to procrastination!
….. I’ll tell you later

Not really far. I’ve been procrastinating horribly =/

Sooo….. I am right at the cave of the past now, I plan on beating giygas tommorrow.
How far are you so far with your mini playthrough thing?

:3 well I’m waiting, mostly cause my bro is a tv hog, but also cause I don’t want to end up starting and then having it start like a day later.

Oh, something I just remembered…”Apple of Enlightenment”. Haha, how perfect! :D

So I finished the first GPP1 last night. I decided to go with some sort of theme. I named my characters Oran (Orange), Nana (Banana), Mint, and Peach. The dog’s name is Mango, favorite food is Fruit, and PSI power is Sitrus :] I figured “Mint” was an appropriate name for Jeff since he doesn’t have PSI.

I’m not sure exactly when, but I really don’t feel like waiting anymore. I’m going to start my playthrough tomorrow :] I just finished the DKC series this week so I’ll have much time.

They did say early July….
How early will it end up being? :/

I dunno, I think I am going to try to finish where I am at until it starts.
But if you wanted to start now I shall as well

I’m not quite sure by what you’re asking, but do you want to start from the very beginning today? We could use GPP1 from both links. And if you’re going to do any challenges then say so. :]

Well okay that sounds good. Any start time in mind or just “OMGWTFBBQNAO”?
Are we to wait or are we going ahead first like we originally said?
My current file has me in the tendas village thingy, but I have more slots still.

Typically one would just play through one game play point per day. The SM.net moderator would post on the mainsite every day with a new game play point. We have access to the archived game play points which I sent a couple shouts back, which we could use. We just need to set a Day 1 and then continue on. If I remember correctly, it started on a Thursday in 2004. Every Friday with the exception of the first one is used as a ‘catch up’ day. Any more questions? :D

Hey my dad actually managed to figure out which cords I need for my SNES and brought it out for me today. (last time he brought the n64 power and the wii’s av)
so I’m good to start. How’s this work exactly? I never was around to do it last time

Sweet :]

That sounds great.
I’ll tell you when I get to pick up the SNES

I think we should use the old ones as a base and add challenges or anything else, as we see fit. What do you think?

Sounds good to me, are we gonna use the old ones as base or make our own?

Sweet, okay so if it doesn’t start by the time you get you get your SNES back, then we should begin :] The EBFGP on the new site only goes up to the Starman DX, but I dug up the one on the old site which is complete.

New: http://starmen.net/ebfgp/
Old: http://classic.fobby.net/ebfgp/

I’m in Wisconsin, which apparantly doesn’t have Internet so my phone is sustaining my need for Internet XO

It depends on what “early” is, because my SNES is at home and it will be there for about a week…
Otherwise I am totaly in :)

i might start my own little EBFGP early since the SM one is running late…you in? :]

ps: it’s okay to say no :3

wow, all of my names are taken
PKborange it is then

AIM.com, in the box where it says “AIM 6.9″, bottom right, “Get a Screen Name”.

i get 500 internal sever error, but i think i found it (?)

Sign up for an AIM Screen Name here:
https://new.aol.com/productsweb/Contr…

That’s all you need. Download Pidgin, CTRL+A, click “Add”, set “AIM” as your protocol. Fill in the rest. :)

okay, do i just make a regualr account on aim or is there a chat one?
I was signing up for one when i lost connection and lost the page, now the new one i keep finding looks different.
give me a second here XD

You don’t need to install AIM, just grab an AIM account and use Pidgin. AIM is so slow and bloated .__.

thanks

Here you go:
http://www.firefoxfacts.com/2008/01/1…

*sigh* do you know how to make google the default search bar in firefox? freaking aim ignoring when I say I don’t want their search bar

hmm.. well ok, I gues I have AIM and pidgen now lol

Hm. Download Pidgin then. It’s much quicker and easier to use. Just go to AIM’s website and make an account :]

actually, thinking about it now, this is also the fourth time I said I would download it “tomorrow” this week -_-;

haha, you know, you are the fourth person this week to ask me.
I’ll get it tomorrow I suppose, I should be sleeping right now, as I am leaving ASAP to Wisconsin on the morrow.
I’ll get it, and give you my user name thingy as soon as I can, It will probably be alphaknight or sitnalta if those aren’t gone.
..you know what? I put things off to often, downloading now XD

Unfortunately I have seen neither the actual box nor the guide :[ I consider plot and music to be incredibly significant in my perception of a game. I have Earthbound’s entire OST on my MP3 player :] And I do love walking around and talking to every NPC in the game.

Hm. It would be much easier to talk through AIM. Do you use it, by any chance?

yea :( the youth these days kind of makes me sad.
one of them asked me right away where to buy the guns, I told him you have to wait for Jeff. He was… disappointed.
I remember very clearly seeing it at a rental store when I was about five, that huge freaking box, but I had no SNES so I just passed it up and went over to the play station or something.
I really mostly loved the plot, the things the characters said and the music.
I too am waiting for EBFGP before I start up the file I was planning on starting to show my younger friends about the game during this summer.
I almost started it without starmen, but I remembered last second :)

I see..being eighteen, I do recall playing Earthbound at an incredibly early age, possibly six years old. Lately, I have been craving to replay it for the millionth time, but I’m waiting for Starmen.net’s EBFGP to start. Besides my cousin, I don’t know anyone else IRL that has even played it, let alone like it.

Many people aren’t able to appreciate the true value of the quirkiness the game holds. Generally speaking, the modern gamer will focus on graphics and violence, and have a relatively short attention span. Meh. It is your friends’ loss.

sadly, no one else in my general area seems to be able to hold interest in the series.
three friends gave up before Threed, one wrote a rant about exploding trees and never played again.

hmm. well I, being 17, would have been around 4 upon Earthbound’s release. So it wasn’t untill smash bros came around that I found EarthBound.
I spent a couple years watching videos and reading wikis, which also lead me to starmen.net, then I discovered emulation.
I tried beating earthbound, but failed and gave up for several years untill I heard about Lucas in brawl, so I went back and tried again and beat it.
then I amassed money in whatever ways possible at that age (which was a very limited list), and bought myself a copy on eBay, which I am currently at the lost underworld in.

So I am not a huge old fan of it, but I feel playing it three times and buying copies of its sequel in Japanese allows me to not feel like such a new fan.
thanks for telling me about it.

How about you?

My older cousin introduced me to Earthbound. She never got very far in it, so we teamed up and beat the game. When we lived together I borrowed it all the time and eventually finished it on my own. Then I found Starmen.net around 2002, where in my lurking I discovered Mother 1. The rest is history.

hey, I wanted to ask you earlier how you found to the mother series, but then I forgot and went off trying to get rosetta to work cause i am out of CD Rs, so any ways I’m asking now before I forget.
how did you find the mother series?

hm. not sure, i haven’t had the experience to toy with rosetta stone yet. i plan to learn french over the summer using ‘rosetta stone’ and ‘tell me more’. if you haven’t already, you might want to check the comments on the page of the torrent you downloaded. they might provide information about how to get it working.

I have winrar, and I extracted the lessons its just that, Rosetta is asking for me to put in a lesson disc to install.
maybe I’m supposed to put the lesson files in a part of the main Rosetta folders

download a free version of winrar to access the iso file as a normal archive.

winrar
http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm

im sorry to bug you about it all again, but what do i do with ISO files? burn them to disc? i have rosetta cracked and everything, just need to get the language files working
never dealt with them before -_-
