12:31pm: TURTLE POWER!
So. Watched Turtles Forever this morning. As someone who grew up on the 80's Ninja Turtles, seeing almost every incarnation of them in one movie was really great.

Also, it's nice knowing that fans of the newer series who have never seen what older grew up with are getting to see some of the history behind something they love today. It's a nice feeling. I think they overblew just how goofy the 80's turtles were, but not by too much. And they had some good "breaking the fourth wall" gags.

The the bit with the original comics turtles...that was good stuff.

10:22am: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AGH.

so it looks like the Ace Attorney Panel will end up being just a bunch of "Ace Attorney" themes games and events.
SO far I've got:
Mini-Costume Contest
Trivia Contest
Raffles
Brief fan discussion

I wanted to do an Ace Attorney Investigations preview, but I don't think I'll be able to borrow a laptop/get a projector to make it possible. I was also hoping to do a "Q and A with Miles Edgeworth" in it's place, but I don't seem to be able to find any Edgeworth cosplayers willing to do so.

Also, I've been trying to do sketch cards (So far no one on the ikkicon board has expressed interest in helping with that) and stuff for the raffles; I'll probably get a couple little gift cards from Gamestop and maybe some PW manga and fan merch for contest prizes...if I can afford it.

I have the feeling this panel is going to flop again. Last year it flopped because I couldn't coordinate with all the other people. This year, there's no interest in helping at all. In fact, there seems to be a lack of interest in the panel in general and I'm starting to get worried that I'm going to mess it up again.

Goddamnit.


Oh, dicks. I just remembered I need to see how much time they're giving me for this thing.

3:50pm: This is the best explanation of Yotsuba ever.

These dogs have hearts on them.
I want them *A*
I want them like I want a panda dog

11:37pm: Ace Attorney Panel planning stages (ie: in which I think about stuff too early.)
Okay, guys. If I can borrow a laptop and projector, here's a possible line up of mini-events for the Panel:
( Copied and Pasted from the Ikkicon Boards (lollame) )

8:58pm: SO! IKKICONNERS.
I think I'm probably gonna go with a Phoenix Wright General Panel at Ikkicon this year. It takes a teensy bit less coordination than a Mock Trial (The lack of which was a HUGE part in last year's Trial's CRASHNBURN) and allows for more variety.
Depending on what equipment I can get/Borrow, I'm thinking of doing the following:

- Ace Attorney Investigations preview (possibly with a Q&A with "Miles Edgeworth")
- Ace Attorney Trivia Quiz Show
- Raffle (if I can afford/make prizes)
- Ace Attorney Mini Cosplay Contest
- RETURN OF THE OBJECTION CONTEST?!

One idea I had was "Whose Court Is It, Anyway?", an improvised trial, where the victim and witness have random names and occupations, evidence is drawn out of a hat at appropriate times, and possibly a ridiculous BURST THROUGH THE DOOR HEY LOOK I HAVE DECISIVE EVIDENCE PHOENIX LOOK AT ME ending.

Also, I was musing about a Professor Layton puzzle solving side event. "And so the trial comes to a close...*dons top hat* You know...that reminds me of a puzzle."

I have a poll on my topic on the Ikkicon forums, and so far the consensus is "I DON'T CARE I JUST WANT AN ACE ATTORNEY EVENT."

I think a General Panel is the way to do.

9:26am: SMASH BROTHERS NIGHT!
So tonight is my favorite game store's last night of Classic Game Fest for this year.
They're doing Super Smash Brothers!
N64!
YEAH!

Of course, hardcore tournament players always seem to ruin the fun aspects of the games! "NO ITEMS! FLAT STAGES ONLY! BAN THAT CHARACTER, HE'S TOO CHEAP!" etc, so on.

LOL NO FUN ALLOWED THIS IS A TOURNAMENT HARDCORE SERIOUS BUSINESS GRRRRRRRRR VIDEO GAMMMMMMEESSSSSSS

I like items...The game was meant to be played with a bit of unpredictability! That's what makes it fun!

Like at the past Ikkicon's Brawl tournament. I heard that they had a rule that you could only activate a Final Smash once. You could GET the Smash Ball as many times as you wanted to keep everyone else from getting it, but you could only use it once per match.

I mean, yeah it's annoying to hear "PK STARRRRR STORRRRRRRRM" every couple minutes, but, if they're good enough to keep getting the Smash Ball...

Besides! A good player should be able to master all aspects of the game, and a big aspect of SSB is taking advantage of items and the situation they present, right?!

It's like, "Oh, he only won because he got the light saber!" But he was good enough to get his ass over there and grab the damn light saber.

1:01am: SHAPED VEGETABLES
http://www.geekologie.com/2009/08/finally_heart_and_star_shaped.php

I...I want these...!

5:58pm: UGH!
Well, my dad called Hewlett Packard the other day after we did a system scan and they said we had to replace our harddrive! So now I've got to reinstall AIM, Mozilla...ugh. At least I have my art backed up on CDs (I THINK!?) but...

What a pain. At least it didn't take very long to do...And a storm is headed this way, it looks like...!

At least I was able to buy some cute hair clips and art supplies today...!

8:57pm: Videogame Look-A-Likes
I already showed this to someone but...
( CANNOT UNSEE...kinda. )

6:43pm: This is brilliant and I love it.

2:32pm: BAWWWWWWWWWWW
So.
In the past three days, I have managed to read the entirety of Candy Candy.



I gotta admit, I cried a little.

NO MANGA has EVER made me cry and I feel like a dork for admitting it but...!
HOW HAS THIS NEVER BEEN LICENSED FOR NORTH AMERICA DAMNIT?!

"Oh, I hate that girl...! OH NO! THAT PERSON DIED?! SO AND SO BETTER NOT DIE! THEY DID! OH THE HEARTACHE! AWWWWW, FUCK THAT GUY, HE SUCKS. BAAAAAWWWWWWWWW!"

goddamnit ;A;



Not to mention that for some reason, I just really like a lot of the old crazy sparkle retro shojo artwork.


but still omg bawwwwwww ;A;

1:49pm: Haha, YEAH
SO OKAY
I went to another night of "Classic Game Fest" at my favorite video game store and they were having a costume contest. Since it started to rain, they had to have it inside and it was super crowded, so none of my photos came out very well.
None.
( Except for... )

10:21am: How cute is this?! XD
So apparently, someone made a robot that works with an IPhone for it's head?! XD
It looks like the head is connected to the body via an usb port or something. But how adorable is this?! I wonder how long it took to do this...

11:25am: Auughjkl;ajsd;lksj;lguh.

I really need to get to bed at a more reasonable hour.

I couldn't sleep, so I was up until like, 3:00 watching television. For some reason, when I go to bed that late I wake up early. So I was up at 7:00. Tried to go back to sleep. Parents got up early. Made noise. Couldn't sleep. I finally drifted off for about half an hour at around 10:00.

I have to be in class by 1:00, so I need to leave by around 12:20. Since I need to eat lunch and finish getting ready for class, a quick nap isn't an option.


It really is my own fault, though.


Augh. DX

4:23pm: SO. PUNCH OUT VOICE ACTORS.
http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=954363&topic=49923592

Was lurking around GameFAQs (LIKE THE CREEPY WEIRDO I AM HURF)and HOLY SHIT.
Don Flamenco = Spanish Cleveland Brown.

Bear Hugger = CARTOON M. BISON.


( Read more... )

It's kinda shocking to find out what else these voice actors have done. XD

10:38pm: what

OH GODDAMNIT by ~BunnyfishMel-Mel on deviantART


I'm so sorry guys.

1:18pm: ICON DUMP!
So. Thursday my internet conked out for like, half the day.
So I got bored. And icons happened.
I've just neglected to post them until now. I'm not like omgsuperpro at making icons, but still. I did use like...two piece of my own art. Is that bad? .___.;
Punch Out x 44
Other x 7
Speed Racer x 2
Circus Charlie x 2
Legend of Zelda x 3
( Yay~? )

8:37pm: Tired, but happy.
I had so much fun today! I went river-floating with some friends.


Well, really, THEY river floated, I watched all the stuff.
Because I can't swim.
It was hot.
I love air conditioning.

But one of them decided they'd watch the stuff for a while, so I took a walk to a park about 15 minutes away (Exercise! I need it!) and drew a little.


I got hit in the face with a basketball. D8


I had fun, though. Probably would have been more fun if I could swim. Maybe I should learn sometime?

I'm so tired, though. I'm not used to being...outside so much. I should probably rectify that. ._____.

12:35pm: aaaaaaaaaa
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
So, so, so guys,
I've joined an RP for the first time in FOREVER.
and I'm so nervous.
I mean...it's not as if characters from these series have COMPLEX MULTIFACTED ANGSTY PERSONALITIES.
But still.
But I think I've got my head together enough. And since I'm only taking one class over summer and the vast majority of the work is done in class I'll have plenty of time. It should be fun! 8D
Get it together, self! 8D

12:17pm: GO GO MAC

This is the greatest Punch Out trailer ever. Put this on television, Nintendo.
DO IT.


Also, SuperBound. This one is based on the SuperBad Trailer, so there's a lot of swearing. Giving you a heads up, don't watch this at work with the speakers on.

3:56pm: oh, shit son
Poke Soul Silver and Poke Heart Gold: Pokemon Gold and Silver getting DS remakes
Shit just got REAL, fellas.

7:24pm: Sharin' some arrrrtworrrrrk
