By the way, if anyone here gets MTV, you guys should check out America's Best Dance Crew. There's an all Asian team called Kaba Modern, based at UC Irvine, that is pretty amazing. The Jabawokeez team is also pretty good.
"That's because white boys can't dance."
That is a racist comment.
To portray someone who would normally be yellow skinned and short as such is not racist.
If a cartoon portray an average american guy with white skin and blonde hair. Having a roughly 6'0 foot height would not be being racist. Its just the way it is.
If you portray someone who is african white, what would the audience think about that? What do you think they would say? They would also be confused... really confused.
Another thing is cartoons would exemplify extremes of what the normal for that type of character is from. They do this so that watchers who would watch the show or the first time would easily get a background of the character without the show repeating over and over again that this character is asian. They need to be drawn in a way that they must tell a short story of the orgin of the character.
When you see Omi from Xiaolin Showdown yellow skin and shortness. What would your first impression be? Wouldn't your first impression be that he is asian and probably from somewhere like china? You wouldn't think that he's from somewhere, like england, would you? You would know that this character is "probably" standing by the ethics of an asian.
Anyone know a good place to get a play station 1 or 2 emulator?? I bring my laptop everywhere, but I don't bring my PS3 everywhere. I know there are probably no emulators for ps3 yet so I'm not hoping. Anyway I wanna Play games with using my computer instead since I don't have the money, nor would I spend money to buy a psp or any like gadgets.
Tnx in advance:D. If you can please also add where I can get the games.
I had some problems against mono green gauntlet treefolk deck. Bringing in damnation helped in that match up.
The other deck I had a problem against was a goblin recursion deck. It drop consistent annoying (small)bombs. It kept on coming and shriekmaw couldn't answer any of their threats. Damnation from side was extremely helpful here as well. Lol.
also mono white snow control was a bit of a problem. first game is a pain, depending how you play your cards. But after board. You can bring in pithing needles, but your recursion is still pissed on by oblivion ring and their are so many activated abilities that pithing needle alone can't handle.
What's relevant that has pro-red? Hmmm.... Nothing? Paladin en-Vec and Burrenton Forge Tender are the only things I can think of but they aren't played much and by no means justify running ghostfire (unless your meta is full of these cards).
Lol, I would say a player with story circle. you can't prevent a colorless spell. lol.
It depends, how do you define burn??? Is it the type that burn creatures, or the one that hits only creatures, or the one that hits only players, or the one that hits both?
I tried it a couple of times and played with it a lot.. I did not change the original build and so far I haven't lost a 2/3 game yet.
As far as I know it is extremely mana intensive, so it seems to need a land drop every turn if possible. The all star at the start of the game is the 8stallers.
The mouth of ronoms are extremely useful. I have only seen few creatures that can resist ronom. The ones I don't are the ones I usually can bounce or kill.
The recursion is extremely smooth if you play it right.
With grim harvest and the mannequins. backing up the deck becomes an unstoppable card advantage machine. wrath doesn't do hell. in fact it actually helps in making your creatures bigger/ recur their effects.
If I was to choose which card in the deck I would actually cut to add another, I'm thinking its Finkel. In some match ups he is just bait to defend you against burn, but when unopposed he still becomes an extremely powerful card.
Hehe. Cool another Hypothetical question thread.:p
Anyway, I would personally kill of the 8 year old prick. What kind of friggin' 8y.o would do things like that?? I mean come on!! Piss on the carpet?? I understand the tickling you to wake you up bit, but pissing on something is pushing it a little isn't it?
The other to seems pretty normal to me. I wouldn't count on my take on this seeing as I am just 18 years old... lol.:D
How about adding a poll so that you can tabulate who is the most despised sibling. hahaha.
The situation given was somewhat vague and incomplete and so the holes were present from the beginning. Such as how do you know the large group of kids want to die? Its not like they're going to be shouting "We're all committing suicide! Come look!". I find that in the situation as it is laid out doesn't make any sense in relation to the choices given.
There are 10 kids on the left track who want to die. They know that the default passage of the train is through the left track so they are waiting there so they can die. 9 of the 10 kids are bound in ropes and laying down on the train tracks(their ropes are tied to the train tracks as well) and the last one is just handcuffed hand and foot to one of the tied up people, which means he was the one who bound the first 9.
Now, the right track has a kid playing there. He/she knows the default passage of the train is thru the left track so he thinks he's pretty safe at that side. He's deaf and so would not be able to hear the train approaching. He can feel the vibration of the trains but assumes all trains will be taking the left track.
1) How do you know the other 9 people were not forced into the track??
2) Did you gain super sensory and mind reading powers to learn that the kid on the right was deaf?
3) When did you learn about these aforementioned powers to learn what 10 suicidal people and 1 non-suicidal person is thinking?
There...I made the situation somewhat more desparate but also gave no room for saving both parties. The fact that 10 people got together to end their lives tells me that they're very serious about it and people who are serious about killing themselves take measures to make sure their death is assured.
I refuse to not commit suicide just because others don't want me to. I refuse to commit suicide because I don't want to, and that's the sole reason. And I think that sentiment should count for everyone. After all, what is your life worth if you're only living for the sake of others?[/quote]
Well, morally that is the point of living isn't it? Selfless love towards other people, but yeah I kind of understand what you mean. Specially in our world today.
I will edit my first post. I'll add one detail you guys seem to use as a loophole....lol.
This is just a hypothetical question so here goes::p
What would you do if this scenario is presented to you:
there is a railroad track, with a train which is running on it. The railroad splits up in to two tracks. and your are in a the middle where you can easily switch where the train passes through(meaning you can choose which track it can pass through)
Here's the problem. There are 10 kids on the left track who want to die. they know that the default passage of the train is through the left track so they are waiting there so they can die(I know its sick:)).
Edit: Lets add a poll to make it funner!!(I know its "more" fun, but I like it his way. lol)
BTW the ages of the kids are say 10.
Now, the right track has a kid playing there. He/she knows the default passage of the train is thru the left track so he thinks he's pretty safe at that side.
Now you can't run towards them to warn them cause both parties are to far. they will not be able to hear you even if you scream for the same reason. In this case what would be the right thing to do?
Sacrifice the one kid to save ten or let the ten kids die and lose whatever chance they have to reform?
this is asking you hypothetically of course.....
edit:The kid on the right will not be able to hear and/or see the train coming for wathever reason. It really just comes down to you which you wanna set the train loose on. The kids will have no way to escape the train making there insides corned beef if you choose to send it going their way.
Duh..

Just play testing results I wanted to post.
Lol, I would say a player with story circle. you can't prevent a colorless spell. lol.
It depends, how do you define burn??? Is it the type that burn creatures, or the one that hits only creatures, or the one that hits only players, or the one that hits both?
Anyway, I would say Rift Bolt, psionic blast, incinerate, tarfire(better than shock in most decks), Fiery Temper(better than Incinerate in certain decks), Molten Disaster, sulfurous blast, chandra, disintegrate if you want to hit both.
If you want to hit only critters. there's lash out, pyroclasm, skred, dead//gone.
that's all I the best burn in standard I think. Lol.
Warcraft III(Specially w/ DOTA and other unofficial maps)-Really liked the depth of the game.
Starcraft+Broodwar- I was a kid.. Give me a break...
Final Fantasy series...except 11& 12....- The ones in the PS & PS2
Pokemon Gameboy originals(Yellow, Red, Blue)-awesome games, even until now...
Diablo Series- Seems that I like blizzards products a bit too much...
Legend of Zelda... One of them...-One of the n64 ones
Ragnarok online- first mmorpg I played. It has a certain flavor that more advanced MMORPG's don't have..
WOW- wow...(I really like blizzard's work)
Raw vs. Smackdown(2005-future)- Lol, love this series. still watch the shows....
Sonic The hedgehog... can't remember which.. Its the one with the genesis console...
Not sure.. Lol. New with this deck as well.
I tried it a couple of times and played with it a lot.. I did not change the original build and so far I haven't lost a 2/3 game yet.
As far as I know it is extremely mana intensive, so it seems to need a land drop every turn if possible. The all star at the start of the game is the 8 stallers.
It then goes to the mid game with venser, shaper savant, mulldrifter, shriekmaw, riftwing cloudskate and faerie conclave

Yes, I have to admit to that.

2) Did you gain super sensory and mind reading powers to learn that the kid on the right was deaf?
3) When did you learn about these aforementioned powers to learn what 10 suicidal people and 1 non-suicidal person is thinking?
Please don't put too much thought into it.....
After all its just a question.....
