[fex]

Intel i7 920 overclocked to 3.80GHz

Nocturna 2-fan heatsink

Gigabyte EX58-UD5 Intel X58 Motherboard

Antec 900 Gaming Case with 20mm top fan

Patriot Viper 6GB DDR3 RAM

1.5 TB Seagate HDD

 

winnar.

 

Awesome thats 90% the same as my next build. Instead of the Antec 900 I'm going for the Antec P183 and i'll be going for a smaller HD. Did you order that bundle from Overclockers?

[EEVILMURRAY]

Yeah, I love that Articuno. Which set is it?

This is the newest set Supreme Victors. Here is the odd one out Articuno from the set

 

I'm pretty sure I have the original Promo versions of those cartoony ones. With the original normal art. Same attacks/stats though.

I have those too!

So which is the hardest card to get in this new set then? would that be the Lvl X Rayquaza? also can any card in theory be a shiney?

 

I remember the 'good old days' when Pokemon cards were much simpler...

 

Does anyone even collect the really old ones from the first sets now? because they can't be used in the new game, correct?

I couldn't tell you meself. But at the booster draft tourney I went to a few people found some Rayquaza [Which I pronounce Ray-Kahza, none of that Quaser shit] But it always seems the ones that are supposed to be the rarest get found the most. In the Neo Revelation [i think] set they had "Triple Star" rares. I got at least three Shining Charizards myself.

 

To answer your other question, yes, almost every card in the newer sets are released as reverse holos.

I know

Sadly not playable anymore in the modern Modified format. But can be played in Unlimited tournaments.

 

The playable sets are mentioned here:

Which is where I got the images for those cards.

I always pronounced it Ray-Kwaaza. Like it's spelled.

 

Then in the anime is like, "Go, Raykwayzerrr", and I wanted to throw up. Horrible pronounciation.

lol, reminds me of Final Fantasy X. Everyone in the history of time pronounced chocobo as "chock-a-bo", but the NPCs started saying "Choke-a-bo". That was a sad day for us all.

[EEVILMURRAY]

Then we pronounce it similarly, which is most pr0.

 

[My way is better though ]

Although Kwaaza would gramatically make more sense than Kaaza.

 

Just saying.

[S.C.G]

I just type things how they are originally spelt...

Perhaps, but I like to think mine sounds more exotic, thus better. Don't make me get Bibleman on you.

I just spent £33 on shirts at RedMolotov.com, but, fuck it, it was worth it.

Don't suppose you were at the Inn last night? Saw someone who I thought might be you but decided not to risk it in case I ended up asking a random stranger if they were Fish

So very true.

Not necessarily. "qu" can sound like "k" as well as "kw". Quay, mannequin etc.

Today's solitary purchase (one that'll surely please Dan Dare):

 

Temporary Pleasure - Simian Mobile Disco

 

Just sort of said to myself 'What the hell. Not like I'm spending the money on anything else at the moment what with the TV broken'

[Paj!]

You're right.

 

I suppose Raykazza just sounds shitter than Raykwazza.

I bought a knuckle sandwich today, ....and it still hurts:mad:

I was! Briefly, anyway - some friends of mine in your year at Roundwood just got their results, so we were celebrating. We transferred to the park, which was fun.

 

I'll be there again tonight, so if you are, I'll keep my eyes open. Not that I know what you look like, but still...

You suppose wrong. Bitch.

[Ganepark32]

@ S.C.G. - Unfortunately, I've yet to listen to it. I put it in the laptop earlier but then decided to do some writing and thought I'd put on something more familiar to get me through writing up some awful game. I'll definitely stick it on properly later. 10,000 Horses Can't Be Wrong is probably the best I've heard so far but I've only heard two songs.

PS3 Slim?

 

When was this announced and why haven't I heard a thing about it?!
