I considering running an F-Zero console tourney.
Should I try?
Which F-Zero game?
2 or 4 player?
What prizes should I give to the 1st,2nd and 3rd placers?
Where should I run it?
How many people would actually show up?

[XpHoBiaX]

I am changing my last time. Should I wait until the brunt of my finacial issues are settled, like sometime near the end of next month...or just go ahead and change it at the end of this month?

>_> I am tired of recieving mail, and important mail, phone calls and people talking to me assuming that I don't speak ENGLISH!!! -_-''

[otakuapprentice]

Would it be safe to say that I like cheese? =D

1. the sharks look pretty good this year. they made it pretty close last time around, so i think they have a good shot.
2. animal crackers. that way you can feed the animals their own kind, making them cannibals, lol.
3. vegans aside, who doesnt like cheese? i know i do.

[Jerry]

Who do I have to pay/bribe to have you attend the gathering on 2/24 ?

Do you swim?

what kind of bathing suit would you wear?

what kind of awsome activites are the best to do at the beach?

Dont you hate it when you get sand in your shoes?

Should that mean we should wear "sand-les" instead?

Or are you a bare foot type of person?

Ever been buried in the sand?

Would Karen have permission to bury you in the sand?

Should I be buried in the sand with you?

Should we try to "kidnap" all the birthday boys and girls of Feb and go swiming in our "birth day suits" ?

In your definition, what is a "birthday suit" ? what should it look like?

do you ever remembering needing to wear a suit on your birthday?

Would you ever want someone to pop out of a cake for you?

would you still eat the cake after someong popping out of it?

would a "pop -tart" be a good type of cake?

Do you like ice cream cake?

What kind if image / display would be cool on a cake?

Ever remembering have an "odd" or "unique" shaped cake?

What was the BEST birthday gift you've ever gotten?

would you ever re-gift a birthday gift?

on average, how much $$$ would you get on your bday?

Would you save or spend the $$$ ?

What was the most expensive item you've ever gotten with bday money?

should there be a $$$ limit on how much people should spend on you?

should I really let people get me gifts on my bday?

Should we try to find a nude beach?

How about building a sand castle?

Ever been to a REAL castle?

if you had the $$$, would you buy a real castle?

how many secret rooms or path ways would you want built?

how many secret rooms do you already have right now?  :wink:

Wouldnt it be awsome to be an "ELITE BEAT AGENT" ?

Do you still play with your Wii?

If I dont play with my Wii enough, what should I do?

Would this be considered a personal problem?

Yup. Thats what I thought too.

Good night.  8)

[otakuapprentice]

*question assault edited for it being too much to read*

oh wow, its beean a while since someone's left a question barrage. looks like i got some work to do *breaks out shotgun* time to hunt me some answers! just gotta make sure i dont accidentaly shoot dick cheney this time, lol.

1. the last time i have been to the santa cruz boardwalk was........ohdamn, i dont even remember. i was just a wee little kid back then; it was a long time ago, i know that much.

2. ive never had it before, nerither have i had clams before. oh well, theres a first time for everything (if you count a california rool as sushi, then i have finally had sushi).

3.whats about a pay/bribe?! you dont have to do that. like previous times, if i have transport, im game.

4. i dont swim very well. i can float pretty good.

5. im not the 'bathing suit' wearing type.

6. sand castle building, beach volleyball (sorry, no DOA girls this time), frisbee, other stuff.

7. i despise getting sand in my shoes.

8. sandles are good for sand, lol.

9. as long as i get dug back up, then yes.

10. yea, lets bury you. then we can find the lost jerry treasure, ROFL.

11. you can try, but you'll never be able to "catch'em all".

12. birthday suit: you know already, so take your mind out of the gutter.

13. i have never worn a suit on my birthday.

14. yea, as long as they have a jet-pack strapped to their back, and they literally fly out of the cake.

15. depends on the cake.

16. pop-tart does not equal cake. you fail. DO BETTER!

17.ice cream cake = mmm

18. waht kind of image? the numbers to the winning lottery ticket.

19. no, i have never had a "odd" cake.

20. i always get money, so that's probably it.

21. getting nothing.

22. i would never re-gift a gift. too damn nice to do that to anyone.

23. on average, i would get about $40 bucks.

24. spend it.

25. hmm....probably a video game.

26. i dont like people going overboard for a gift. the most reasonable price for a gift should cost no less than $20 and no more than $35-40.

27. if they want to get you something, let them. even if you say no, they already did.

28. he could if he wanted, but don't let him. it will scare the kids.

29. refer to the last answer.

30. ask them and find out.

31. its the beach, during winter. think about it.

32. don't even think about it.

33. a crappy sand castle, YAY!

34. does the castle at disneyland count?? if not, then no.

35. oh yea.

36. as many as can fit.

37. i have ZERO secret rooms.

38. if i told you, then it would take away from it being secret.

39. if that was a real job, i would take it in a second.

40. dunno. make one up for me.

41. song, eh? i'll get back to you on that one.

42. lol, definitely.

43. do they HAVE to sing?

44. i would take it to the car wash, yeah!

45. snickers bar?! GIMME GIMME GIMME!!

46. bestest candy/candy bar? either snickers bar, twix, or reeses' pieces.

47. old school candy, eh? its not reaaly THAT old, but fruit-a-burst gum.

48. yea, ive noticed that too. generally, the beginning of the year, most companies dont wanna risk losses on games, which is usually why we always see the 'IT' titles out around halfway in the year, and afer that its a steady stream of games. dont get me wrong; there's still some good stuff coming out during the first quarter: god of war 2, super paper mario, mario party, GTA: vice city stories for the ps2, Shining Force EXA, and many others. the games that are gonna sell faster than the new elmo dool are of course Halo 3, Smash bros. brawl, metroid prime 3, GTA IV, and other titles i dont remember at the moment.


my line is about to die so looks like this will be a two-parter this time. the rest of the questions shall be answered tomorrow.

Until Then...

[otakuapprentice]

my line is back up and running (thank god!), which means i can continue picking the strips of meat off of jerry's bucket 'o questions. now where was i?

...oh yea, i remember now! *grabs answer cannon* READY...AIM......hey, what happened? why won't it fire? thats the last time i buy a cannon from the flea market!

49. yea, i still play with my wii.

50. see a physician. you might have wii-rectile dysfunction, LOL.

51. no, it couldnt be considered a personal problem. most likely, your daily responsibilities are being put forward instead of playing with the wii. that, and there isnt a game out yet that can literally cause you to play the thing nonstop. and online games arent out yet; thats another factor.

52. you dont need them. they're not qualified.

53. probably Mark, or Adam. no offense to the marks or adams of the world.

54. well, seeing as how this is answer #54, i havent yet finished the whole set. just need to get through five more dungeons and earn the The Dark Staff of Bloodkilling, ROFL.

55. because you just do. and because the FBI is monitoring your question totals. they know things....

56. dude, they started the whole "dump a ton of questions on my small, fragile body, crushing it in the process" trend; they will most definitely beat your record.

57. in all seriousness, i have so much fun just reading everyone's insane posts. they are good for a laugh. then i respond to them; thats when i have the most fun.

58. what else is there to do? like im gonna go out and paint a masterpiece, or run for president, or try to launch myself from one side of the country to the other using only a pack of rubber bands, a parachute, some bottle rockets, a paper clip, and a piece of string.

Keep 'em coming!!

[Jerry]

so if Karen were to bend you over and start smacking your behind (if it was officially your bday)....

how many smacks ?

And is Karen allowed to pick you up and only wearing a towel again?  :shock:

Do you think Karen is gonna smack me for asking these questions?

Will I survive the night/day/night?

[Barnes]

More on the F-Zero GX tourney:

Should I ban the following:
-Snaking (Too cheap)?
-Custom machines (Some go waaaaaay too fast for other machines)?
-Phantom Road (Too easy to fall off)?

Should I say "recover allowed" or "fall of the course and lose"? (I forgot what its called)
Should it be single, or double elimination?

Whats your first name?(mine is Kevin, nice to meet you)
