    A pleasure to have you as a tutor man. As a pre-emptive note with regards to 101, I'll ensure I'm on Showdown/Online (whichever you prefer) as much as possible and I'm rather flexible with regards to times on the whole, although I won't be on for this Saturday until around 7PMish due to friend...

    Margaret (sp?) Thatcher died

    As a British Politics student, I kind of have to speak up. While I was strongly against the use of council houses as a political bargain, the poll tax conception, the dissolution of the mining and steel industries in the country and honestly most of what she put in place as PM, one thing I...

    Lifestyle physical health/fitness thread

    Ahh, I suspected it depended on experience. Although I've done it on and off for just a little over a year, with varying success, I've generally always kept to a slow jog so I can sustain it for as long as I can. A lot of the time now I can generally manage 4 laps around a route of my town...

    Lifestyle physical health/fitness thread

    This question's a little out there, and I hate to flood the thread with me asking tons of questions, but this is just a short one so hopefully it won't matter as much. OK so I'm trying to get myself back into jogging a bit more to build up on my cardio a bit, and intend to try and aim for around...

    Lifestyle physical health/fitness thread

    This little quip has boosted my optimism about a gym environment quite significantly actually. I guess earlier I was discouraged due to what some peers irl have said, but seeing this has kind of made me think "who gives a fuck about your actual performance?" Classic mentality of "it's the taking...

    Lifestyle physical health/fitness thread

    Alright, so I really wasn't sure where to post this, but I kind of needed to get this way off my chest and figured since the thread revolved around fitness, this would be the best place to put it. Just a quick warning: I'm probably one of the least fitness-savvy people around in all honesty, so...

    Social The Smogon Photo Album

    Total nooblet here, may as well post a few fairly recent ones. These are fricking HUGE though, and seeing as I'm not so fond of how I appear visually, I'mma hiding them: oh err hi i'm making my best... I don't even know what I'm doing here actually This one's a weight comparison...

    Best Video Game Music

    Literally can't believe that Blazblue hasn't had so much as a MENTION so far, especially with more of the new Chrono Phantasma remixes coming out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73kr5vwBLtg&list=LL1TTfusXMCnjZ_cP-eEnR6g - Hazama's remix, DAT PIANO...

    New Year's Resolution

    1: Drop to about 130 lbs by the end of Feburary. Doing that I would've lost 50 lbs since last year, which would kick tremendous arse. 2: Obtain my predicted grades (A* in History and Politics, B in Eng Lit) and head off to Uni 3: Become a generally far more sociable and outgoing guy. This is the...

    Official Smogon University Simulator Statistics — October 2012

    | 20 | Cloyster | 68587 | 8.857% | 53586 | 8.562% | One of the worst and easiest to revenge kill one trick ponies in the tier makes it into top 20 range? Ho- how, I don't even... Anything with priority absolutely destroys it and it's probably the single most predictable mon in...

    Hardest Relative NPC

    My contributions: Misty in R/B and FR/LG. Yeah, give the second Gym Leader you fight one of the best, most well rounded Pokemon in the game as well as a hugely powerful (at the time) STAB move to destroy you with, which in FR/LG can also hax you out with confusion. I swear I either have to get...

    Pokémon BW2 In-game Tier List Mark II [See Post #840]

    YAY IT'S BACK <3 Soo I might as well post my first theory-vote, for one whom I haven't yet discussed... Tynamo - Low Tier Availability: Tynamo has absolutely awful availability. Either you can go for an 8% availability in ChargeStone Cave prior to Mistralton Gym, or you can wait until just...

    Official Smogon University Simulator Statistics — September 2012

    He won't come back at all unless he suddenly rises to OU. Sand Stream was banned in UU and any lower tiers, meaning Stoutland is a below-average Pokemon in every aspect now that he's lost its one and only defining niche in Sand Rush. It's a real shame, he was awesome in UU and now he's not even...
