{Game} Goldenrod Tower V.36

[Skye]

True, but you have to go backward to get to a store in Expedia, which takes a while. And over all the TMs don't mount up to give a Pokemon its full potential, or at least the potential it has in the games. In most ways, the TMs and the new TM lists give the Pokemon a stronger chance at being its best, but it's still difficult to unlock everything about it, even through EMTs. In sme ways, EMTs are moew hassle then they're worth. Maybe a tutor that randomizes the attacks a Pokemon can learn including the ones not in games, and you could pay to get the TM for that Pokemon. Yeah, ideas galore. xx;

Hn, I'd like to sell those Gems for 4 Stamps, please. Yay, almost enough for my next item.

[Ace64]

(2-3) Do you think there should be any changes to the Goldenrod Tower? If so, what and why? If not, why not?

I'm gonna agree with KoT here in thinking that a new game- or maybe a new method- to earn stamps/CCP's would be nice. The poll is an everyday thing with the *chance* of earning those stamps, and I have no problem with that. And I'm not looking for an easy way for unlimited Stamps either. It's just everything here seems so...randomized. When I came up with the idea of Battle Bonanza, it was originally intended to be a way to earn stamps, too.

[Lady Vulpix]

Darkfire: you get 4 stamps. It's also good to learn to work with fewer TMs. I remember one of Ventura's early battles when she was still a Venonat, in which her narrow moveset played a decisive role in her victory against a Ditto. And then having a pokemon like Caledor, with 43 different moves plus 5 colors of light... it turns out he doesn't even use most of the moves he knows, and I find his personality a lot more interesting than his moveset. Building a moveset is also a part of the game. It wouldn't be the same if all pokemon knew all possible moves, like they do in ASB.

Trey: Photosynthesis Gem. Well, the disappearance of games like Buena's Radio Show, Who's That Trainer?, and the Dragon's Guild Trivia has reduced the ways to get stamps, but in order to have games like those, we'd need someone willing to host them. For now, you can try the Battle Range. If you would like to host a game, just PM me and we'll talk about it. This forum is seriously suffering from lack of workers these days. I have 2 jobs IRL and I work at all AC topics, the Goldenrod Tower AND Expedia. I can't take any more jobs on this forum, it would be more than I can handle.

[The Blue Avenger]

Kyle: The GT! you got from me is correct. Take your prize.

Gabi: Do I just owe you one MG? Hollow Stone.

[Lady Vulpix]

Thanks, Jeff. Could you get on AIM, please?

[The Blue Avenger]

Can I have my two EMTs for this month, please? *pays 6 coins*

[Lady Vulpix]

Jeff: Thunder, Aerial Ace.

ANNOUNCEMENT: the first post on this topic has been updated.

Changes summary:
-The Grabber Game has been updated.
-We are now buying berries as well.
-Stat Modification Dice are now Super Rare.
-Shields of all types are now available.
-The question/guess rule for Mystery Pokemon has been made explicit.

Which leaves the question...

(4/2) What do you think of these changes?
In my case, I think they're good, that's why Jeff and I made them. I hope other people like them too.

Oh, and Jeff, the randomizer is now located at http://www.files.bz/files/1336/GTRandomizer.html (now we can update it whenever we need to).

[Skye]

(4/2) What do you think of these changes?
I like them. They're going to be popular, I think. I like the idea of getting unown plushies and the idea of selling berries. I know I have plenty. ^.^;

MG, 10 G2 SCs # 1,3,7 for 5 Stamps, and selling:

Berry x 8
GoldBerry x 3

I believe I will take Stamps. 31 Stamps, please. ^.^

[Lady Vulpix]

Darkfire: they're not exactly plushies, but just as collectible. You get your 31 stamps. MG: Solar Gem. SC: 5 Stamps, 2 Blue MGcoins, 4 Red MGcoins.

[Skye]

Ah, well, ^^; They're cute anyway. Selling that Gem for Stamps. I sense another Reward Center purchase coming up soon.

[The Blue Avenger]

Mkay, I'ma sell 4 berries and a Gold Berry - 13 stamps, I think.

Gabi - Spark Gem

(4/2) What do you think of these changes?
I, of course, am pleased with them. S'why we implemented them. It should solve a lot of the things people were saying needed to be changed. And, of course, more options of items is always a good thing. I may have to try a grabber game or two soon...

[Ace64]

(4/2) What do you think of these changes?

Well the changes don't affect me so much, being new(er) to the board, but it's always good to see that improvements are being made. Gotta keep with the times, you know.

I'd like to sell that Photosynthesis Gem, and Gabi, I'll send you a PM soon. I've got time, and if it's possible, I'd be interested in hosting a game, new or old.

[Lady Vulpix]

Jeff: your 13 stamps, and a Solar Gem. They're back! It will be nice to see someone play the Grabber Game. It's been a while since anybody played it. You know what? I think I'll play it. 3,3, please. *Hands over a Red MGCoin.* And you missed a MG for me, I was the one who posted the poll this time.

Trey: Berry. And I'll be awaiting your PM.

[The Blue Avenger]

Gabi: MG: Division Gem.
GG: Sorry, it got dropped.

I'm going to sell that gem for stamps. I'll also play 7 games of scratchcard, 1, 5, 9, for green MGCoins.

[Lady Vulpix]

1 Green MGcoin, 4 Blue MGCoins, 1 Red MGCoin. Lucky! And you also get 2 stamps for your gem.

[The Blue Avenger]

Mkay, and now I'll play 3 grabber games - 3 up, 3 across. *hands over the green coin*

[Ace64]

I'd like to sell the Berry, please, along with the Photosynthesis Gem. And, since everybody's doing it, I'll play the Grabber Game, too!*hands over a red MGcoin*

EDIT: Oops. 2 up, 1 across.

[Knight of Time]

Kyle: if it sounds like a Pidgey, it must be because it is a Pidgey. Congratulations. The Blue MGCoin is yours, and also the 5 stamps from the MP game. MG: 1 Stamp/CCP, 2 Stamps/CCPs, Lunar Gem. If you ever come up with a good idea for a game, let us know. I'd reopen WTT?, but I'm afraid it would soon run out of updates, with as few active trainers as we have now. SC: 3 Blue MGcoins, 4 Red MGcoins. EMT: Stomp, Thunderpunch. GT: the ends of this pokemon's arms are the same as the begining of its name. MP: Feraligatr, Skiploom, Whismur, Scizor, Heracross, Ampharos, Charizard, Tangela, Hariyama, Machamp, Nidoran M, Blaziken, Skitty, Magikarp.

GT!: Ooh, this GT! definitely is one of the hardest I've ever gotten here. No matter, I might as well make a guess. Is it Roselia? Blue MGCoin if I'm right, please.

Gabi gave me the following MP list:

Feraligatr, Skiploom, Whismur, Scizor, Heracross, Ampharos, Charizard, Tangela, Hariyama, Machamp, Nidoran M, Blaziken, Skitty, Magikarp

Question 1: Is there an S in the MP's name?

(4/2) What do you think of these changes?

Hey, I actually like these changes a lot!

Now that we can sell Berries of any kind, I can definitely take advantage of this, in fact, I'm going do just that shortly. As for the other changes, Ifind it slightly surprising Stat Modification Dies are rarer, but it shouldn't faze me too much. In fact, that reminds me. If we were allowed to sell them back here, how many Stamps/CCPs would we be allowed to get for each one?

MG, 10 SCs (1, 2, 3, Green MGCoin) and a GT! please.

Edit: I'd also like to sell the following for a mix of Stamps and CCPs:

Berry x5
Gold Berry x5
Miracle Berry

That would make 25 Stamps and 20 CCPs for me on this occasion.

[Kiara]

(2-2) Who are your favorite music bands, why? Do you have an affinity for a certain genre of music? If so, what kind of music? If not, why not?
Enigma, Linkin Park, Enya, and another one I can’t think of the name of… I’m not very picky, it all depends on my mood, because… o.o; It depends on my mood! >.>;

(2-3) Do you think there should be any changes to the Goldenrod Tower? If so, what and why? If not, why not?
I don’t know!! >> because my brain is farting.. .and the new changes are enough for me anyway.

(4/2) What do you think of these changes?
They’re okay, but that’s just my opinion.

3 MGs please, and I wanna sell my Gold Berry for Stamps X3

[Lady Vulpix]

Kyle: I should have expected it from you... always trying to get more than you're offered. Set any number you want, we're not buying them anyway, so we can not buy them at whatever price you want. GT: yes, it's Roselia and you get a Blue MGCoin. MG: Berry. MP: no, no S. SC: 2 Blue MGcoins, 5 Red MGcoins. New GT: this pokemon's name has 7 letters: 1 vowel and 2 consonants. And you can have your stamps and CCPs for your berries.

Kiara: MG: Berry, 2 Stamps/CCPs, Flame Gem. And you get 5 stamps for your berry.

I'd like my first spin at the EMT for this month, please. *Hands over 3 Red MGCoins.*

[The Blue Avenger]

Mkay, and now I'll play 3 grabber games - 3 up, 3 across. *hands over the green coin*

I'll also have 9 scratchcards, spaces 1, 5, 9, for Green MGCoins.

Ace: 4 stamps for your sale. Unown L Pokédoll.

Gabi: Water Sport TM.

[Skye]

I think I'll play the GG for once, it looks fun and I want some Unowns X3 3 up, 3 across, please. *pays for 10 games*

(2-5) Groubdhog's day was on Febuary 2nd, and was started by a German superstition. Do you believe in superstitions? If so, which ones and why? If not, why not?
I don't belive in superstitions at all, especially the one about bad luck on Friday the 13th since my birthday sometimes falls on that day. Wha's so bad about a birthday? X3

[Lady Vulpix]

Oops! Sorry about the skipped posts. Thanks for getting Trey's, Jeff. I'll give my Water Sport TM to Kurly, my captured Politoed, since he's the only one who can learn it.

Jeff: GG: Solar Gem, Blue MGcoin, Solar Gem, Dropped: 0. They love you! SC: 4 Blue MGcoins, 4 Red MGcoins.

Darkfire: GG: Unown O Pokédoll, 1 Stamp/CCP, 1 Stamp/CCP, Green MGcoin, Solar Gem, Ocean Gem, Unown P Pokédoll, Spark Gem, Dropped: 2. MG: Miracle Berry, Hollow Stone.

(2-5) Groubdhog's day was on Febuary 2nd, and was started by a German superstition. Do you believe in superstitions? If so, which ones and why? If not, why not?
I've never heard of that event... nor that word for that matter. No, I don't believe in superstitions, but I believe that your mental attitude towards something can affect the way it turns out, so I do sometimes use "lucky charms" since they add to my mental preparation for things that aren't completely predictable (like exams) and help me face them. Of course, that doesn't replace more serious preparation, like studying and planning in advance.

[The Blue Avenger]

... >_> I'll sell 'em for stamps.

1 grabber game, 3 up, 3 across.

Gabi: Red MGCoin

[Knight of Time]

Kyle: I should have expected it from you... always trying to get more than you're offered. Set any number you want, we're not buying them anyway, so we can not buy them at whatever price you want. GT: yes, it's Roselia and you get a Blue MGCoin. MG: Berry. MP: no, no S. SC: 2 Blue MGcoins, 5 Red MGcoins. New GT: this pokemon's name has 7 letters: 1 vowel and 2 consonants. And you can have your stamps and CCPs for your berries.

GT!: Hmm, might that be Rattata? Blue MGCoin if I'm right please.

Gabi gave me the following MP list:

Feraligatr, Skiploom, Whismur, Scizor, Heracross, Ampharos, Charizard, Tangela, Hariyama, Machamp, Nidoran M, Blaziken, Skitty, Magikarp

Question 1: Is there an S in the MP's name?

Okay, since there is no S in the name of the MP, my list is now:

Feraligatr, Charizard, Tangela, Hariyama, Machamp, Nidoran M, Blaziken, Magikarp

Question 2:

Is there an E in the MP's name?

(2-5) Groubdhog's day was on Febuary 2nd, and was started by a German superstition. Do you believe in superstitions? If so, which ones and why? If not, why not?

Hmm, don't think I've heard about the German origin of the superstition of Groundhog Day either. As for either superstitions, I don't believe in most of them except for one them, namely Friday the 13th, b/c sometimes I suffer bad luck on a Friday the 13th (I can't even avoid the bad luck at times >_<).

MG, 10 SCs (1, 2, 3, Green MGCoin) and a GT! please.

[Lady Vulpix]

Jeff: the Solar Gems will be sad. Their love for you is not returned. If I hadn't seen and used the randomizer myself, I'd be wondering if it has a way to know who the items are for. Take 4 stamps. As for your GG... you get an Unown F Pokédoll.

Kyle: GT: right, it's Rattata. You get another Blue MGCoin. MP: no, no E either. This is starting to look like Hangman. MG: Lunar Gem.

And I'll use that MGCoin for another Grabber Game, (3,3) as well.

[The Blue Avenger]

Yeah, well, the Solar Gems need to show a better way to express their love. ...Good way of getting stamps, though.

Gabi: Unown W Pokedoll

[Skye]

Oh, *eats my typo* Groundhog's Day >.<;

Selling: Solar Gem, Ocean Gem, Spark Gem, Miracle Berry, Hollow Stone. That's.. 17 stamps please. <3

[The Blue Avenger]

You got it. 17 stamps.

[Lady Vulpix]

Yeah, well, the Solar Gems need to show a better way to express their love. ...Good way of getting stamps, though.

Gabi: Unown W Pokedoll

Well, at least they serve a purpose.
Wow, that's one of the rare ones! It only comes out if a certain random number equals 13, and it has 51 possible values.

[Skye]

Arina agreed to trade me her two Lunar Gems for one of my extra Stat Modification Dies. I'll sell those Gems for Stamps, please.

[Arina Arono]

I'm confirming the trade and also two Group 2 ScratchCards for Green MGCoins, please. # 3, 5, 7

[The Blue Avenger]

Darkfire: 4 stamps

Arina: 2 Red MGcoins

[Skye]

(2-6) Did you vote at the AC Polls this month? If so, which ones and why did you vote for them? If not, what didn’t you vote for and why?
I voted in both of the Polls. I voted for Weather Ball at the Move Compatibility Poll because I’ve had a Weather Ball TM given to me twice, and I figure any Pokemon that can learn a weather-changing move should be able to learn Weather Ball. At the Adoptable Pokemon Poll, I voted for Magikarp and Poochyena because they’re two Pokemon I like (Well, I like Gyarados…) and I would be willing to train them if they came up.

2 MGs and 10 GGs 3x3 please.

[Lady Vulpix]

EMT Game: Return?

Darkfire: MG: Flame Gem, Green MGcoin. GG: Blue MGcoin, Unown E Pokédoll, Unown O Pokédoll, Unown I Pokédoll, Photosynthesis Gem, Red MGcoin, Unown G Pokédoll, Dropped: 3.

(2-6) Did you vote at the AC Polls this month? If so, which ones and why did you vote for them? If not, what didn’t you vote for and why?
I didn't vote for either. I never vote for the Adoptable Pokemon Poll because I work at both ACs and I want to give others the chance to decide. I'm not even planning to adopt any more pokemon anyway. As for the move compatibilities poll, I vote sometimes, but not this month because I don't have a move I particularly want to add to the list right now.

[Skye]

Hn, selling: Photosynthesis and Flame Gem please. Stamps as usual.

[Knight of Time]

EMT Game: Hyper Beam?

Gabi gave me the following MP list:

Feraligatr, Skiploom, Whismur, Scizor, Heracross, Ampharos, Charizard, Tangela, Hariyama, Machamp, Nidoran M, Blaziken, Skitty, Magikarp

Question 1: Is there an S in the MP's name?

Okay, since there is no S in the name of the MP, my list is now:

Feraligatr, Charizard, Tangela, Hariyama, Machamp, Nidoran M, Blaziken, Magikarp

Question 2:

Is there an E in the MP's name?

Okay, since there isn't an E in the MP's name, my list is now:

Charizard, Hariyama, Machamp, Nidoran M, Magikarp

Question 3: Is the MP a fighting type?

(2-6) Did you vote at the AC Polls this month? If so, which ones and why did you vote for them? If not, what didn’t you vote for and why?

Yes and no, I voted in the move compatibilities poll b/c I wanted to help with the votes for Weather Ball, and I didn't vote in the Adoptable Pokemon poll b/c not only am I at my adoptees limit of 15, but I can't exactly predict what Pokemon anyone with plenty of room for a new adoptee likes.

MG, 10 SCs (1, 2, 3, Green MGCoin) and a GT! please.

I'd also like to sell the following for another mix of Stamps and CCPs please:

Berry
Spark Gem
Photosynthesis Gem
Ocean Gem x2
Lunar Gem x3

In this case, I'd like 10 CCPs and 6 Stamps please.
