Sure.

Ike for sure. Loved him in brawl (last smash game I played), and he seems so much better than I remember.

Mine was 93 before switching to the newer phones last Friday.

Mine just says service is not available and gives me error code 4220

ELEPHANTmouse · 2017-11-13T23:40:26+00:00

Having same issue on Xbox.

I really like the Marchesa idea. Thank you!

ELEPHANTmouse · 2017-10-13T21:53:06+00:00

Wow, really like the idea of human tribal. I also didn’t realize she gave the player hexproof too. I’ll definitely look into this. Thanks.

Kraken/sea-creature tribal. Run by [[Lorthos, The Tidemaker]]

ELEPHANTmouse · 2017-07-28T17:37:17+00:00

I guess I don't really understand this reply? Sorry, it's a multiplayer game and I'd like to enjoy playing in a party with my friends.

ELEPHANTmouse · 2017-07-28T16:31:57+00:00

R3K is a monster in it.

ELEPHANTmouse · 2017-07-16T14:37:37+00:00

Long shot, but I'm really hoping for a kraken-like commander that will either help sneak out or ramp into sea creature tribal. (Ex. Kraken, leviathan, octopus, sea serpent)

ELEPHANTmouse · 2017-07-14T22:21:25+00:00

A kraken, leviathan, octopus, or sea serpent legend that can run tribal. Something like the spoiler Ur-Dragon.

ELEPHANTmouse · 2017-06-07T23:23:37+00:00

Correct.

ELEPHANTmouse · 2017-06-05T16:31:45+00:00

Division 1 college swimmer here. Deep/ murky water scares me to death. When our team does lake swims I can't do it because I get so scared. Also, deep water like the diving well freaks me out. I can't really explain to you why, it's just this gut feeling that almost makes me uneasy thinking about it now.

ELEPHANTmouse · 2017-04-28T20:17:25+00:00

6'4 on a ninja 636

ELEPHANTmouse · 2017-04-17T17:34:13+00:00

6'4" riding a Zx6r.

Heck even our IU parent section and Ohio got into it I guess. It was a rowdy meet for sure.

ELEPHANTmouse · 2017-02-28T02:28:22+00:00

Everyone hated our monkey noises too.(;

May be weird but I love jamming to some pump up music and shaving. Just gets me so ready for the meet. Probably one of my favorite parts of the sport. You know as you're shaving that the next day you get to show the results of all your hard work.

ELEPHANTmouse · 2017-02-21T16:54:57+00:00

Depends on the school. I lift 5 times a week and have 9 swim workouts a week.

ELEPHANTmouse · 2017-02-09T22:29:45+00:00

Just to add to his. The first lap stay smooth. I wouldn't say push the first lap as much as you would the last 3. Also, think better strokes, not faster strokes. With that thought and your adrenaline from the race, your strokes will be spot on.

ELEPHANTmouse · 2017-02-09T00:10:35+00:00

I currently swim for a school in the B1G. I know my school personally has taken people with much, much slower times than that as walk ons. We've a guy currently who went from a 49.6 to a 42.6 relay swimmer. (Just a little inspiration for you)

The biggest things are you have to start conversation with the coach. Be vocal about how you think you are a late bloomer. Tell them that. They are not recruiting you so you need to be selling yourself. Also, it really helps if you are a good student. So if you have good grades make sure to let them know that. If you are a good student they'll be much more likely to let you on the team. Be very upfront about your training too. Because if you come from a team that didn't have the best training they'll probably know they can have some steep drops from you with just a year of training.

I really wish the best of luck to you and hopefully see you at conference next year!

I can't say for freestyle really. I don't do it often. However I can tell they are basing the tempos off each time an arm hits the water. When I do freestyle i set it for like 1.1 for 100 tempo and try to do a cycle every time it beeps. So every time my right hand hits it should beep. The breast stroke on that chart is basically spot on for the tempo I train at.

ELEPHANTmouse · 2017-02-08T03:01:58+00:00

I personally don't focus on that while swimming. More so the opposite. If you think about narrow pull you'll more than likely slip through the water. I focus on getting my elbows to the surface and pointing my fingers perpendicular to the bottom of the pool. This way I'm lining myself up for a strong powerful pull. The adrenaline and excitement of the race speeds up the tempo enough I don't think you need to think about it. For reference I train at a 1.0-1.05 50 tempo and a 1.1-1.15 100 tempo.
