Q: How can I safely kill a Whiptongue Bulborb?

The Whiptongue Bulborb is giving me enormous amounts of trouble. Whenever I get into a fight with one I wind up using a large number of Pikmin, which just isn't acceptable.

GnomeSlice

@RedRiderX Yeah

Pretty much

Although Globulos hasn't really had many players in a long time either.

Which is a shame because it's pretty fun

Ben Brocka

@RedRiderX Plus the cost of fucking servers. There's a reason Terraria and Minecraft use the (horrifically bad for novice users) method of making players host their own servers.

RedRiderX

10:46 PM

@BenBrocka Yeah, that's a drain.

The single player aspect also helps grow those games quite a bit I imagine.

@Wipqozn let's be honest. Most people pirate because pirating = watch when you want for free

@Sterno Not in my experience.

@Sterno Merlin. My dad has a friend with amazing internet who downloads shit for us. We had all the seasons of Merlin a year in advance.

Merlin was fucking amazing by the way and you guys should all watch it if you haven't.

Sterno

It was kind of Disney in the early seasons but I liked it

RedRiderX

11:16 PM

@GnomeSlice It's pretty good for some slightly cheesy television.

GnomeSlice

@RedRiderX Are you kidding me it's fucking amazing.

The only disappointing thing was that they obviously lacked the budget for any kind of magic other than force pushing

RedRiderX

@GnomeSlice Yeah that's most of it.

The plots are largely transparent as well.

GnomeSlice

@RedRiderX Yeah, but they were in the legends too

That was half the fun for me actually.

I liked that it was like that

RedRiderX

@GnomeSlice True, they do follow a lot of the big points in the legends.

GnomeSlice

Except I thought Morgana was sort of neutral in the legends.

RedRiderX

11:23 PM

@GnomeSlice Eeeh, yeah no.

GnomeSlice

The last episode was nuts

I cried

@RedRiderX Oh, no?

RedRiderX

@GnomeSlice Whaaa!?

I thought you saw them sorry

RedRiderX

@GnomeSlice Well I do know the legend so not a big surprise honestly.

user15026

Why you should never get a tattoo in a language you do not know.

GnomeSlice

11:25 PM

@RedRiderX Right, but in the legend doesn't arthur die after like... doing all the shit.

Like after the round table and albion and all that stuff

right

HE dies in the last show in the final battle with morgana

Mordred gets him

And they send him out to the island

RedRiderX

@GnomeSlice Yeah that is very much the legend.

GnomeSlice

And then the show did something really fucking werid

RedRiderX

btw spoilers

@GnomeSlice Don't make me ignore you man!

GnomeSlice

@RedRiderX Yeah but in the legends Merlin was like his advisor wizard right

Oh I thought you said not to worry about it

sorry

Wipqozn

Oh, Twilight River. I hope that means I'll finally get BLue Pikmin.

RedRiderX

11:27 PM

@GnomeSlice I meant the initial spoilers.

GnomeSlice

OH

Honstly that part I just deleted was like 5 seconds in the episode, but okay, sorry

In the legends, wasn't Merlin like arthur's advisor wizard though

RedRiderX

@GnomeSlice Yeah, that's the main twist of the show.

GnomeSlice

@RedRiderX Yeah. I was expecting the end to be like MAGIC IS COOL, BE MY ADVISOR WIZARD MERLIN

@RedRiderX Yeah I know and it was so painful

Because like he has magic right

But he can't tell anyone.

RedRiderX

@GnomeSlice This is true.

GnomeSlice

ARGH

THAT SHOW WAS THE BEST/WORST

Merlin just got SHIT ON for his WHOLE LIFE

RedRiderX

11:29 PM

@GnomeSlice At least they let it run it's course, and then made a fitting end.

GnomeSlice

FUCK

RedRiderX

The Legend of Arthur is a large part Tragedy.

Sterno

Coprolalia

Coprolalia is involuntary swearing or the involuntary utterance of obscene words or socially inappropriate and derogatory remarks. Coprolalia comes from the Greek κόπρος (kopros) meaning "feces" and λαλιά (lalia) from lalein, "to talk". The term is often used as a clinomorphism, with 'compulsive profanity' inaccurately referred to as being Tourette syndrome. Related terms are copropraxia, performing obscene or forbidden gestures, and coprographia, making obscene writings or drawings. Characteristics Coprolalia encompasses words and phrases that are culturally taboo or generally unsuitable...

GnomeSlice

@RedRiderX Yeah I know. But the legend of Merlin isn't supposed to be.

@Sterno I do have tourette's actually, but no vocal tics as far as I'm aware

Unless you count snorting

Sterno

I had a problem with Merlin using the "I know who the traitor is but I won't tell Arthur because he'll never believe me" plot over and over and over again.

GnomeSlice

11:34 PM

@Sterno That's true they did do that a lot. They used the 'merlin can't tell arthur' thing an awful lot.

There was just something about that show I really, really liked.

RedRiderX

@GnomeSlice Well, it seemed that in the legend Merlin was largely in the background, and wouldn't let on whether he knew the end of the story or not.

So I imagine feeling almost helpless in the face of Fate is an element of his story.

Sterno

At some point, it breaks suspension of disbelief. Melin should just be able to say "you know how it turned out I was right the previous 88 times? Maybe take this one on faith!"

GnomeSlice

@Sterno It's not like it was contrived though, it actually makes sense that that would happen.

@Sterno Heh.

RedRiderX

@Sterno He does sometimes.

GnomeSlice

@Sterno Medieval. You didn't talk to your King like that.

Sterno

11:35 PM

Overall I liked it though.

GnomeSlice

Colin Morgan did a fucking amazing job as Merlin

RedRiderX

@GnomeSlice Yeah, he was pretty good.

GnomeSlice

Thinking about his acting in the last couple of episodes makes me want to cry.

He should get an emmy

or whatever it is for tv

Most of the acting in that show was pretty good.

Morgana was eh.

Not terrible but not great

RedRiderX

@GnomeSlice That's America.

GnomeSlice

Also I don't think they could have picked a more attractive actress.

@RedRiderX give him one anyway

The other real issue I had with the show was that the 'Old Merlin' costume was fucking hideous.

He looked like a dirty old man and not a powerful benevolent wizard

RedRiderX

11:40 PM

@GnomeSlice Wasn't it suppose to be?

GnomeSlice

@RedRiderX I don't know, but they didn't have to make him look like... dirty like that. unwashed. He was ugly. Really ugly

RedRiderX

There were no powerful benevolent wizards in public that could get fancy clothes where ever.

GnomeSlice

That was like how Merlin was supposed to be when he was like arthur's advisor right

@RedRiderX IN THE LEGENDS HE COULD OKAY

And it's not just his clothes

They just could have done a better job on the costume

RedRiderX

@GnomeSlice I think you're missing the point again...

It's the TWEEEEST.

And they were cheap, idk.

GnomeSlice

The twist is that in this universe old merlin looks like a dirty old man?

I guess, yeah.

But why does he look just automatically like that

Seems to fit with the long and bitter war on magic bit.
