General Chat: Dawn of THE FIRST DAY (72 hours remain)

As I said, I'm pretty sure I know the name of at least one of the Axews, but then again, I'd prefer to get my hands on that Salamance.

Also, I still haven't played AS, since I was hoping I could get that grass starter via bank but I haven't been able to rebuy bank yet. I'll have to see if my internet via my phone is good enough, or else I'll have to wait till the weekend of the 17th and 18th

Hi again! You called?

...Yeahhh I have to admit that I haven't quite touched ORAS in a little while. Been preparing for a technical interview that I just went through today (@.@). Might try to truck through more of the game in the next few days before break is over. Gonna refrain from guessing since I'm not really active in the competitive scene right now, so I'd probably not be the best person that they could go to!

I promise I'm getting back into Pokemon soon! And will probably post more as a result. Please don't give up on me yet

...wow Octi's like Beetlejuice :O
How'd the interview go? I have one next week for my first "real" job, I really really like the company so far but if I'm honest the wage could make or break it for me :/ it's a semi-internship-sort of-job thing for 18 months and I haven't a clue what the wages will be like, (though I get a 1000 euro starting bonus and wages are reviewed every 6th months) and when the starting salary in my field in Ireland is the same as the average salary in Ireland, I *really* don't want to feel I'm being screwed out of what I'm worth. 18 months of internship pay is not really something I want to do :/ so I'm nervous!

And now worries lol if you are busy you are busy. You should guess anyway though! It'll be more fun and advance the round counter that way.

I'd like a Snivy, please? Any IV, any gender, as long as its Contrary ^^

Ah. Captain, while you're here, post a pokemon-nickname pair because it's been half a week and we're still on round one of the giveaway D:< D:<

if its taking so long just end the round now you dont have to wait to get however many guesses you can just end it early to move onto round two in which nobody will guess but so what at least youll have some winners

Ohh! Um, I'm going to go for Aku as the Umbreon. If we're talking Samurai Jack here, I think.

(The interview went okay and now I have to fill out forms to see if I get to another stage of interviews... This seems so complicated! @.@)

I'm gonna guess Aku as the Axew then. Because they sound the same, sorta.

I think we'll have to wait for D to announce who was right or wrong first.

Because if my guess for Salamance was wrong then I'll guess Keravnos next.

IGNORE THIS SPOILER UNLESS MY GUESS FOR SALAMANCE IN THE LAST ROUND WAS RIGHT:

Well, I don't think Spark's going to be too happy about this.

Okay!

ROUND 1: OVER

Aaaaaand the results are in!

Correct submissions: 1
Incorrect submissions: lol everything else guys 0/10 try harder!


Congratulations toooooooo...

Spoiler:

ROUND 2 SLATE:

Spoiler:

Guess that means that was right after all like I thought it might be. I think I'll guess Tyrian for the Starmie this time.

LOGIC BEHIND THE LAST GUESS IF YOU'RE INTERESTED:

As I said, Keravnos the Salamance this time.

In addition to cA:

Andromeda the Gyarados?

Woo! Thanks much, D! ...And classes are starting tomorrow but I'm going to try to get online sometime this week (after 3pm EST probably) before we get swamped by homework. Or, when are you available and I can pop online then?

I'm available pretty much all the time except when I'm sleeping this month, we get long holidays. Timezones are a little awkward, but I am flexible, so, whenever

Keep on with the guessing peeps! There's some quality guessing going on. (Although almost everyone who WOULD and CAN guess already has... *sigh* sure is quiet lately.)

Maybe we should figure out where all the people went?

tahiti
they all went to tahiti

Do we know why they went to tahiti?

Probably to buy a cake. I'm told Tahiti has all the best cakes.

Well, it's back to class for me today. Oddly, I ended up with all my Comp Sci classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and everything else on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.

Huh. What are your other classes like? I've never really grasped the whole "major" thing. I suppose its useful if you don't really know what you want to do when you graduate, but if you do then it's kind of a loss of productivity isn't it?

Well, I've got Physics, which is actually required for my major, and Humanities, which is one of the gen ed requirements.

Hey, D, sorry I'm late but wasn't it your birthday yesterday? If so, happy late birthday, I hope you had a nice day.

i never went anywhere
