MZero 11/11/23 5:55:24 AM #29 | Beatrix - 7
Yunalesca - 3 Scarlet - abstain Anabella - 1 Beatrix should have been playable. Easily top 2 FFIX character Yunalesca has a dumb design and not much else going for her. Also she just lets summoners off themselves for 1000 years and thinks it's fine I don't remember Scarlett at all except that I think she slaps people Anabella is the worst --- MZero, to the extreme https://www.twitch.tv/kabazame |

MZero 11/10/23 9:32:53 PM #457 | Game #16 - Gradius (Konami, 1986)
Final time: 4:27 It started off pretty decent, but the last couple levels were kind of annoying. Why are those amoebas in Level 6 so tanky? And why are there so many? It's also dumb that they and enemy fire can pass through the webs like they aren't there but you have to shoot through them or you explode. Then there's the stage 7. I got all the way to the end and died because I didn't predict a closing door and was too far away to get through. That was pretty irritating, to say the least. Anyway it's kind of decent for what it is, I guess? I'm not a big fan of these kind of games, but I've played much worse. I'm actually ranking it behind Zelda, which should give you some idea of my expectations for each game.

Topic | B8 NFL Ladder Contest 2023 Week 10 |
MZero 11/08/23 10:55:46 AM #1 | A few ground rules:
-If I have you blocked you aren't allowed to participate (Note: I don't have anyone blocked) -Please say which level you are on when you post your pick. In most cases it will be obvious, but this makes it easier for me to record the picks. -The deadline to make a pick is before the official kick-off time of the game in question. You cannot pick a game that has already started. Some levels may have different deadlines, so read carefully. -The deadline to answer the bonus question is at the start of games on Sunday (1 PM ET). -Please don't edit your picks. If you'd like to change, please do so in a clearly labeled new post. -I get my spreads from an online site providing lines from several sources, both in Vegas and out. Although these sources may continue to change their lines throughout the week, the ones I post in the topic are frozen and final for our purposes. -You may use bonus points to skip any level after it is guaranteed you cannot pass it (at the end of the week's games, typically). You may only skip the level before I have posted the next week's topic. The price for skipping is in proportion to the level you are skipping. Skipping level 1 would take 1 bonus point, level 2 will take 2, level 5 will take 5. So on and so forth. Explanation of Levels: Level 1: Pick a winner. Simply pick one team to win their game. If they win, you go on to level 2. Level 2: Pick an Underdog to win. You must pick a team that is an underdog to win their game. Underdogs will always be the team listed second. Level 3: Level 3: 2 Games with Spread. Using the spreads I provide, pick 2 games. You must get both correct to move on. Spreads work by giving (-) or getting (+) points. The team that is the favorite to win "gives" points to the underdog. If you choose the favorite to win, they must still win after "giving" those points to the underdog. If you choose the underdog, you would be correct if they win the game after "getting" those points. For example, if a game says "Giants (-2.5) vs. Cowboys," if you pick the Giants, they must actually win the game by at least three points; if you pick the Cowboys, you would win if they actually won the game or lost by two points or less. Level 4: 2 Game differentials. Pick two games and specify them to have a score differential of either 10+ or 5-. Make sure to specify which you pick, if you pick a score to be 10+ and the score ends up 3 apart, you do not advance. You do not need to pick the winner, as long as the differential is correct, it does not matter which team wins. Level 5: 2 Over/Unders: I will now provide over/unders for each game. This number relates to the final score. You must choose 2 of the games and decide whether the final score will be OVER the number I provided or UNDER the number I provided. You must get both of these correct to advance. Level 6: Pleaser: Pick one team to win using the spread, but with the pleaser, you lose 6 points on the spread. In other words, add six points in whichever direction makes it harder to win. For example, a (-2.5) spread becomes (-8.5), a (+3.5) becomes a (-2.5) spread, etc. Level 7: QB, RB, WR: Pick 1 player to throw a touchdown pass, 1 player to rush for a touchdown, and 1 player to catch a touchdown pass. They must all be from different teams, and must also combine for at least 4 touchdowns in their respective positions. Typically you will be picking a QB, RB, and WR, but you may pick players from other positions to fill those roles (i.e. a TE or RB to get a receiving touchdown). You must make it clear what role you are picking the players for if it is not the standard QB/RB/WR or QB/RB/TE. If the player gets a touchdown in a different way (i.e. your rusher getting a receiving touchdown), it does not count. Level 8: 5 Game Teaser: This is the opposite of level 6. Instead of losing 6 points on each spread, you actually gain 6 points on each spread. But you have to get all 5 games right to move on. So a team favored by 9.5 will now only have to win by 3.5, a team that is getting 2.5 points will now be getting 8.5 points. Schedule (Favorites listed first; home team in CAPS): Thursday, November 9th CHICAGO (-3.5) vs Carolina 38.5 Sunday, November 12th 9:30am (GERMANY) Indianapolis (-1.5) @ NEW ENGLAND 43.5 1pm BALTIMORE (-6.5) vs Cleveland 37.5 CINCINNATI (-6.5) vs Houston 47.5 San Francisco (-2.5) @ JACKSONVILLE - 46.5 New Orleans (-2.5) @ MINNESOTA 40.5 PITTSBURGH (-3.5) vs Green Bay 38.5 TAMPA BAY (-1.5) vs Tennessee 38.5 4pm Atlanta (-1.5) @ ARIZONA 42.5 Detroit (-2.5) @ LOS ANGELES CHARGERS 48.5 DALLAS (-16.5) vs New York Giants 38.5 SEATTLE (-5.5) vs Washington 45.5 8:20pm New York Jets (-1.5) @ LAS VEGAS 36.5 Monday, November 13th BUFFALO (-7.5) vs Denver 46.5 Bonus Question: Name a losing QB to throw for more yards than their opponent. --- MZero, to the extreme https://www.twitch.tv/kabazame |

MZero 11/08/23 4:33:11 AM #453 | Oh yeah, and also the check points are almost always detrimental because you spawn in the middle of a tough section with no powerups, so you're pretty much better off starting over from the beginning of the level every time

so far my only major complaint is that enemies can come from behind you. You can't shoot backwards so that seems unfair. Also I was just there 3 seconds ago where did that enemy come from Sometimes when you go to the top or bottom of the screen to shoot the turrets or collect a powerup, another one will just zoom in from the left side and kill you and it's really frustrating --- MZero, to the extreme https://www.twitch.tv/kabazame |

He absolutely kidnaps her from Home, and Seymour forces the ceremony to conclude after Tidus and company show up to rescue her. You can say he doesn't "force" her, but he knows Yuna doesn't want to marry him. She tells the party in the Thunder Plains that she decided to marry him, and during the wedding ceremony Seymour says something like "you'd play at marriage just to send me?". It's heavily implied that Yuna went along with the whole thing and wasn't forced into it or kidnapped. Heck, she proves like 10 seconds after the wedding that she could have gotten away if she wanted to. If you want to say he forced her to marry him because of the very last part, that's a fair argument, but like if she just says no from the beginning and doesn't try her risky plan he probably wouldn't have done anything. I don't even like Seymour and I'm not trying to defend him here, but that whole arc was about how Yuna was trying to do everything by herself and got herself into that situation by not relying on the others --- MZero, to the extreme https://www.twitch.tv/kabazame |

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/5/5e37ab2b.jpg Final time: 7:09 I know a lot of people like this game and even claim it's their favorite in the series. Honestly though I think this game is really, really bad. The open world concept is kind of neat and innovative at the time, but it's terribly designed. Those screens where you get stuck until you do the right combination of screen changes? Absolutely terrible. Who thought those were a good idea? Why isn't there any sort of indication of which walls are bombable or which trees are burnable? I don't like handholding any more than the next guy, but at least something to make you think "hey there's something unusual here" but no, you just have to bomb every wall in the dungeons. Then there's the enemies. They have no discernible patterns so you just kind of have to guess where they're going, and they don't have attack animations so all they have to do is bump into you to damage you, which sucks. This is especially annoying with those knight guys who you have to hit in the back. If they were at least trying to attack you instead of wandering around aimlessly you can figure out the right time to attack, but they can just turn whenever and hit you. And what's the deal with Ganon? Why is he invisible? And if you touch him while he's invisible it damages you, which is so dumb. You can kind of tell where is he based on where the fireballs come from, but it's still ridiculous. I could go on and on, but basically I think this game is kinda cheeks. I'm a big fan of the Zelda series, so I guess the one good thing I can say is that it spawned a great series that gave me a ton of enjoyment... later on.
