  1. Would we want a Stealth Rock suspect test? [Read #196]

    I remember when Garchomp was banned waaaay back when. I don't know if that was the first ban (not like I paid too much attention), but that was when I understood what a suspect test was about. I never played BW1 because of school, but I find it really interesting to come back now and see the...
  2. (1805 Peak) GO H.A.M. OR GO HOME: True Hyper Offense in OU

    I was thinking of running a similar team recently, so it's nice to see that it can succeed. I've tested it out a bit and there are a few problems I've run into. It's amazing how well Skarmory can sit there and take hits. I've always been a fan of Fire Punch on Dragonite over Superpower (but I...
  3. Final Grades/GPA thread/School/University Discussion

    Just got accepted to Tulane! (Early Action is soooo nice for safeties). Waiting for Chicago... Grades not wonderful this year. Predicted grades: Japanese 3rd year: B (I'll get close but won't make that A) AP Biology: A Dual Enrollment English: A (Amazing class. Only time in my life I've been...
  4. The greatest moment of your life

    I can't even rank them anymore, but I have a few (from most recent backwards): First kiss (surprised more people have listed this one) Solving a Rubik's cube blindfolded Winning a game of Pandemic with 7 Virulent Strain epidemics and Mutations (if you've played you know what I'm talking about)...
  5. Who is your favorite person, or character...ever! (Tell why!)

    The Doctor. I want to own a T.A.R.D.I.S. and a sonic screwdriver like nothing else in the world. I want to wear quirky clothing and not care about what pathetic little humans think of me, because I am the Doctor.
  6. .

    I'm going to say that at even at the high school level, soccer, football, and basketball require tremendous dedication. If you're doing these for fun (aka not on school team), basketball is a good way to meet people once you're decently good. You can practice on your own just fine until you're...
  7. Pikachu's Shocking Tail (A Warstory)

    Love the theme and love the commentary. Maybe not the greatest of all battles (non-Liquid Ooze Tenta?) but one of the best of the recent stories. Great job: 9/10!!!
  8. Voting machines for midterms rigged?

    Votes by machine is a stupid system that is far too prone to rigging and malfunction to be deemed usable. That's my belief. Also, Republicans that believe votes are being rigged against them, please look back exactly 10 years to that state called Florida. We conceded like honest people (we...
  9. Final Grades/GPA thread/School/University Discussion

    Oh, man I am so stressed. University of Chicago's Early Action deadline is Monday. Deep breaths, deep breaths...Problem is quarter grades aren't the best by any stretch of the imagination from recent sickness. This college thing is far more stressful than anticipated. I fly out to Swarthmore...
  10. College Football 2010-2011

    60-13 to a team that beat the former #1. How is Oregon not #1?
  11. MLB thread

    They're both great. Now, the question is: in the previous series was Lincecum's performance better than Halladay's no-no? After all, the game was closer, he threw more pitches, had more K's, and he needed to prove himself after some poorer showings recently (correct anything if wrong). Anyway...
  12. New and 'creative' moveset/EV spread thread Mk. 5

    I ran a Gengar like that for a while. I had Trick over Shadow Ball, Taunt over Pain Split, and held a Black Sludge. This basically meant a win against other stall teams, as I could fire off a fast Taunt and set my Black Sludge on anyone I wanted (usually Blissey). It's alright but slightly...
  13. Sports that you play

    I have played varsity baseball as a pitcher and catchers since freshman year (even played in the playoff game w00t!). I also beat up on the JV tennis players frequently, but I have never beaten a varsity player. It sucks that they're at the same time of year...
  14. NFL Weekly Predictions Challenge

    Jacksonville vs Buffalo Denver vs Baltimore Atlanta vs Cleveland: Cleveland sucks. Especially without LeBron. Kansas City vs Indianapolis Tampa Bay vs Cincinnati Green Bay vs Washington St. Louis vs Detroit Chicago vs Carolina Houston vs New York Giants New Orleans vs Arizona Tennessee vs...
  15. Team Probat

    I'm not a fan of changing pokemon, so I'll try to work with what you have already (though ChestoRest Kingdra seems like a pretty solid fit). Crobat really wants Roost. Once your opponent knows it's choiced you'll get ample opportunities to Roost on switches. Over Taunt or Super Fang? I'm a...
  16. Your Clubs and Activities!

    I just started a board game club at my school. We meet every Friday after school, thus allowing sports people to play while simultaneously filtering out those who are not so dedicated. I am also part of the We the People competition team at my school and spend 15 hours a week or so just reading...
  17. Jirachi (Choice Specs)

    I really liked U-turn (already said so but voicing up again), though I don't know how you feel about that. It bluffs a Scarf/defensive variant, gives you a nice switch in, and tells you how effective Doom Desire will be in the future. However, it's weak as fuck. After using Trick, though, you...
  18. Jirachi (Choice Specs)

    This set is so much different from any set I've used. It has taken me probably around 15 games to get into the swing of SpecsRachi (keep that R in there), but I have to say it has been paying off. I was running U-turn / Trick / Thunderbolt / Doom Desire and I have to say it worked very well...
  19. Prop 8: Great riddance, or GREATEST riddance?
