  1. Tiering change timing.

    Something that has bothered me is that the tiering changes always fall in the middle of the month. This tends to mess up that month's stats, because half of the matches were played in one metagame, and the rest were played in the other. Obviously, this would not be a problem if the changes were...
  2. Bye bye Latias! Bring in the apes...

    Slowbro isn't going anywhere. Scizor still rips it's nuts off, even if it is a decent check for ape.
  3. imperfectluck and OmegaDonut (Un)do the Bible Belt - Nashville VGC 2009 Warstory

    Lucariojr, why the hell did you decide to necro a nine-month-old thread?
  4. One Life. Six Words. What's Yours?

    I saw, I conquered, I came
  5. What is your current job?

    I work at Fred Meyer *emosob*
  6. Smogon Shoddy Server Statistics - January 2010

    I don't think that's right. That would mean that everything under 5% would get bumped down... Hippowdon? Mamoswine? Tentacruel? etc.
  7. Pokemon Draft!

    Is this still going on?
  8. The Metagame's Biggest Problems

    Neither of these things are problems with the metagame. They are problems with the players lacking creativity. Those are scizor's two most common sets because they are the best, and it's the same with RMTs. If it works, do it. That's not a problem with the metagame, that's just how things...
  9. Evolution vs Intelligent Design

    Also, I suggest people read about this short article before posting, seeing that a large amount of the arguments posted here contain the same flaw. Hoyle's Fallacy
  10. Evolution vs Intelligent Design

    Hmm...how about billions of years worth of fossil evidence? Also...one word. Cellulose
  11. SD-Con 2010.

    HEY! OLYMPIA! I live there! Excellent town if you like hippies. Maybe I'll see you around, though I don't know you, since I mostly just lurk here.
  12. RMT Standard UU

    I'm not going to post much, because it's pretty much all been said. Donphan sort of eats this team alive. Every single one of your pokemon is either OHKOed or 2HKOed by a Choiced Ice Shard/Earthquake. Being as physically bulky as Donphan is, it only takes 34.4% - 40.6% from a head smash off...
  13. .

    If you need any inspiration... Jim Thorpe Though I warn you. As an incoming freshman, you are going to be outclassed by the vast majority of upperclassmen due to the fact that they are simply older and more physically developed. You are unlikely to do any better than JV, and will probably only...
  14. does interstellar travel matter?

    But that's irrelevant, seeing that interstellar travel doesn't exist yet either. I don't think discussing the comparative merits of nonexistent technologies makes very much sense. That assumes that you have a target velocity, and drag (though minimal in space) is not a factor. If somebody...
  15. does interstellar travel matter?

    Oh man...here I go. For interstellar travel to matter several criteria need to be met. 1. Some form of stasis must exist to allow the same people to start and end the trip in relatively the same physical condition. This is the most important concern. If a traveler is unable to...
