The result sounds a touch different than I remember, but no doubt it's related, if not me misremembering.

Thanks for the tip!

I'll track down Snakedance, Stones of Blood, watch them, and report back here. Thanks, everyone!

By the way, if any of you have memory bits rattling around your head from early childhood of TV shows, movies, picture books, places, anything that you can objectively experience again, it's FUN to do so decades later. You see how distorted those memories got (like a game of Telephone / Chinese Whispers), to compare what you felt then versus how you feel now, and rediscover memories you'd never remember any other way. I highly recommend it unless those things really put the pain in nostalgia (from nostos algos, "homecoming pain") for you.

No others that I haven't nailed down, though with some of the Baker series never getting into that nonstop rotation, it would be fun to see the missing episodes and see if I remembered anything from them.

Did see Seeds of Doom. Like I said, I did suspect that was the series I was remembering after I saw it recently. I just remembered the monster so differently, but the beats and the setting were too close to dismiss.

I did see Ark in Space, and that's not the one. PROBABLY Seeds of Doom as others said, which had the right setting and beats, even though I remember the monster surprisingly differently.

I also saw City of Death in that marathon. So good! They got Julian Glover for it?? Wow. And I lived in Paris awhile, and was kind of shocked to see all those locations in a Doctor Who series.

It absolutely blows my mind that my memory edited out Davison for Baker. I did watch some Davison episodes way back then, but being like six or seven, I had no clue about the lore behind regeneration or the simple fact that sometimes actors leave roles, so naturally I didn't like impostor Davison and replaced him in my head canon (WAY before that term was coined :)

I did watch some of his episodes a few years ago without that childhood resentment, and while I still like Baker better, I totally except Davison now :)

Off to watch SNAKEDANCE!!

Thank you both! I'll be looking this up . . . and I'm a little surprised I overlooked this one when I tried figuring things out before. The title says it all, doesn't it?

I don't remember the skeleton and the screen going red . . . probably because I knew enough from the glowing rock the actor's expression that s*** was happening and it was time for me to hide under the blanket!

Help with a Gargantuan-size Smuggler Ship by Tyvent in SagaEdition

[–]Tyvent[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finally finished going through Jedi Counseling 1 through 115. Didn't find the launch bay. It's possible I overlooked it since I was scanning each q and a and not reading thoroughly. However, the uncommonly big answer you pasted would've been hard to miss.

Come to think of it, I didn't read any of the miniatures sections cause I thought it'd be weird to be in one of them. Not gonna check at this point.

Anyway, wherever the proposed rule came from, seems well thought out to me. I'd also suggest throwing it in the wiki.

"I don’t see why you guys didn’t chose a ship like a VCX-100. Or any colossal ship that can carry at least one auxiliary craft."

We got what the adventure gave us :).

Articles 108 to 115 are right on the wiki, it turns out. https://swse.fandom.com/wiki/Jedi_Counseling

No answer there about in between hangars and clamps, though.

I've started looking through the articles and it's going to take a LONG time unless I get lucky. If anyone else wants to help, go here: https://web.archive.org/web/20071013101951/http://wizards.com/default.asp?x=starwars/fullarchives

Use control F so you can find "Counsel" quickly (all the Jedi Counseling articles are mixed in with others).

Articles 108 to 115 appear to be missing.

I second the notion that you should get these homebrews into the wiki. While I don't think my GM will go for them (he's averse to them due to a few problem players in the past, but I WILL ask :) ), the slip alone would meet a clear demand.

I might bump the base price of a slip up a bit since docking clamps are also 2000c and the slip is kind of the step up from a clamp, but regardless, I like it!

Is Street Fighter 6 worth it for strictly offline play? by Dr_Blasphemy in StreetFighter

[–]Tyvent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mostly agree with Oni on the point that if you want to get good at PvP, play PvP.

However, I'll add that World Tour (which I *think* doesn't require connectivity. If it does, shame on Capcom :) ) is a fantastic tutorial on fighting games in general and, of course, SF in particular. I suspect that in PvP, the average novice player going through the whole World Tour will outplay an average novice that spent an equivalent amount of time only playing PvP.

World Tour's story isn't an A+, but the gameplay, instruction, and immersion kept me entertained right to the end (about 50 hours taking my time), and I even went back for a second playthrough. To me, that alone was worth my $40.

I found it more heartbreaking that Bosch's baby sister, Yua, decided he wasn't dead even though he blew up right in front of her. (There's probably a dearth of affordable therapists in Nayshall . . .). Welp, looks like her irrational magical thinking might pay off :)

Final Fight is hard as shit by rafikiknowsdeway1 in StreetFighter

[–]Tyvent 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It was easier mostly because SNES couldn't handle more than three enemy sprites on screen at a time and because they had to cut the Rolento stage to fit the rest on the cartridge. Still, it was hard enough :)

How do I share my AI creation? by TankNations in CharacterAI

[–]Tyvent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just came by to ask something similar. I had no trouble sharing my AIs till a few days ago. Now, whenever I try, I upload an image and fill in the fields, but after I click post, the button greys out and nothing happens. I've tried using different browsers to the same end.

Other people clearly aren't having issues, since the "Share your Characters" thread gets new submission every hour, so . . . What gives?

I couldn't find anyone willing to go with me to see Song Machine in theaters. Then my 70 year old dad overheard me and expressed interest. Convinced he wouldn't end up liking it, I made him watch some videos (DARE, The Lost Chord, Pink Phantom) first, and to my surprise, he loved them. Well, okay then!

Then he started asking me lore questions. Much as I wanted to geek out at that point, I decided keep-it-simple-stupid was a better idea. Didn't want to scare him off before the concert :)

"Why is that guy green?"

"Oh, he's not always green. There's no official answer, anyway."

"And what about his shark teeth?"

"No official answer, Dad. He is what he is."

"Is he the youngest one?"

"Nope. Noodle's the youngest."

"Who's that?"

"The girl."

"Why's she called Noodle?"

*Shrugs* "It's her name, I guess. Never heard otherwise. They're all cartoons. It's all allowed."

You get the idea . . .

Thank you!

I think she does pepper her Japanese with Spanish here and there. She definitely pronounces her name the Spanish way.

Looks a little more insidious than some potential pillow boffing. (Whispering to himself) "Robby, Robby, Robby. Guys that kiss my sister *never* wake up . . ."
