@MartinSojka More than famous catcher, he was also the manager of the Yankees during their 4 world series in 5 years run about a decade and a half ago. Basically, he is a local legend in NYC.
@badp I rarely trust fan translations that claim that. IIRC the "best" fan translation of FF4 is actually pretty bad and includes lots of totally incorrect/made up translations: legendsoflocalization.com/final-fantasy-iv/baron
@fbueckert I honestly rather thought one piece of magicite was good for one character only, and you'd have to find the others scattered around the world
@kalina This one actually derives from "belly up", via the military's always-present way of vulgarising the fuck out of every term they encounter. And it originally refers to ... dead fish in the water.

After Terra had a lovely meetup with the Phantom Beast, followed by a lovely trip bouncing around the world everywhere, the other 6 playable characters agree to split up because you can't have parties larger than four players to go find her. For this I picked the Mechanic, the Samurai, the Monk a...
In New Leaf you get your HRA score by talking to Lyle instead of in the mail. Thus far I haven't gotten any rewards, so I'm wondering: Do I have to check with Lyle when I hit a thresh hold to get a reward, or will I get it by mail automatically?
@fbueckert Were you familiar with @Ascendant at all in CoH? He played on Virtue, was fairly well known there, but I'm not sure how well he was known outside of it.
@Powerlord He's playing some crazy fan translation where Terra is named Tina and Sabin is Mash and it's just generally awful from the screenshots he's posted.
@Powerlord Yes, but 1) The Woolsey names were better mostly, and more importantly 2) You know as well as I do what disasters these 'faithful' translations end up being.
@fbueckert Ah okay. He recently passed away. He was well known on the boards and to the devs for the fake telephone convos he would stand around having. He had an article on ParagonWiki and even had a cameo on the comics. Relevant Titan Network thread.
I figured the SNES would have a lot more horsepower and memory to go with than the GBA, so in the port they'd have had to cut corners or introduce bugs
like, it'd have been how Link Awakening is to Link to the Past
But yeah, other than the lack of buttons and some modified sounds, I didn't notice any real differences between A Link to the Past on SNES versus A Link to the Past on GBA.
@fbueckert Yeah, I didn't know him personally, but he was pretty famous on the server I played on. :/ I guess he'd been sick for a while, 'tis a shame.

> Profile Game Count: The number shown next to the "Games" link on the new profile should now more closely match the number of games shown in the Steam library.
for the record (whenever this discussion was, hours ago, probably) my real birthday is not in my profile, but it's close enough. I am only three quarters of a million years old
@FAE in one case flattered, in the other insulted. In one case someone was disbelieving that I had to have physical therapy for my back. In the other, someone remarked "I have shirts older than this guy"
Seriously, this shinespark sequence contained something like 5 shinesparks, a couple of them precise, and a transition into and back out of morph ball mode
Is it possible to actuaaly get 3 borderlands signs and get a orange weapon im presuming as the legs are blue and marcuses head is purple?
