Note: I'm in Ushuaia with very limited Internet access. I'm currently on a public computer. I won't be able to do much online until the 31st, but I will archive Alex's battle (and rate it if it hasn't rated yet) when I get back. Since updating my items page from here would be more hassle than it's worth, I won't answer any polls until I return either. But... let's just say I make my own time for AC/CC.

Shonta: Lunar Gem.

Alex: Dragon Pulse!

[MeLoVeGhOsTs]

If I read it right, that means you can only buy one Red MGcoin and only if you don't have MGcoins already. Or am I wrong?

Gonna use that Red MGcoin for the same scratchcard! 3,5 and 8 again.

[Knight of Time]

MLG: Yes, that's right. If you have no MGCoins of any colour, only then can you buy a Red MGCoin with either a Stamp or a CCP.

SC: What are you playing for?

Anyway...

Shonta gave me the following MP list:

Skarmory, Arbok, Rapidash, Cherubi, Toxicroak, Houndour, Blastoise, Teddiursa, Azumarill, Bulbasaur, Zapdos, Weepinbell, Bidoof, Smeargle

Question 1: Does the MP's type (or one of them) give it immunity to one of the five major status conditions other than confusion (e.g. poison, paralysis, burn, sleep, freeze)?

I'm going to conclude this post with a poll, methinks.

(12/28) With 2010 almost over, how do you think your whole 2010 turned out so far? What are you looking forward to in 2011, if anything (be it real life or not)?

Well, for me, this has been a bit of a more challenging year to endure than previous years, I mean, it's definitely been a year of changes and some firsts, all in all, it's had its ups and its downs, but mostly ups thankfully. In 2011, I'm looking forward to meeting face-to-face with a person I've been talking to since March...I can only hope something really good comes out of meeting this person, besides that, I'm looking forward to my 10-year high school reunion, presuming it's still happening.

Alright, I didn't know that whole thing with the MG coins, haha, been far too long, wasn't sure, so I will return dragon pulse and walk away

(12/28) With 2010 almost over, how do you think your whole 2010 turned out so far? What are you looking forward to in 2011, if anything (be it real life or not)?

2010 had it's ups and downs for me, with some great ups like possibly getting published into a peer reviewed article and some incredible lows unfort (R.I.P Gramps, you will be missed) but all in all, I would like to think the pros outweigh the cons at this point, so good year. 2011 I feel is gonna be a make or break year, with the peer reviewed paper and work really ramping up, it should be a good test of myself. But I'm mostly looking forward to my quarter century at the beginning of January and just the sheer rediculousness of what my friends and I will be doing in this new year...

MG please

[classy_cat18]

Kyle: MP: Yes. MG: Division Gem, Blue MGcoin

Alex: Ocean Gem

I have to say that it's been a mixed bag for me. I finally got to celebrate my graduation, and my birthday was a blast, but I wish I could've gotten more accomplished. Next year is full of opportunities, but right now I'm looking forward to A-Kon in Texas.

[Knight of Time]

Okay, since the MP is immune to one of the five major status conditions besides confusion, that leaves:

Skarmory, Arbok, Rapidash, Toxicroak, Houndour, Bulbasaur, Weepinbell

Question 2: Is the MP a Poison type?

Shonta: 1 Stamp/CCP

[classy_cat18]

Nope, not a Poison type.

[Knight of Time]

Okay, so the MP is not a Poison type, that leaves:

Skarmory, Rapidash, Houndour

Question 3/Guess: Is the MP Rapidash?

[lvl100mewtwo]

Alright, guess I should try this out once more, can I get an MP? Ahands over last Red MG coin*

[classy_cat18]

Kyle: No, sorry.

Alex: Breloom, Hitmontop, Lotad, Wynaut, Bagon, Medicham, Pinsir, Smeargle, Azumarill, Ampharos, Piloswine, Staravia, Spinarak, Manectric

[Knight of Time]

Okay, so that leaves me with two choices left for the MP, making me wonder...

Question 4/Guess: If the MP is Houndour?

[lvl100mewtwo]

Is my MP from before generation 3? (Gen I n II)

[classy_cat18]

Kyle: No, it isn't.

Alex: Yes, it is.

[Knight of Time]

Oh, well then the MP must be Skarmory, so may I have a Blue MGCoin and then exchange it for a GT and a Fishing Game (C3) please?

[lvl100mewtwo]

MP: Hitmontop, Pinsir, Smeargle, Azumarill, Ampharos, Piloswine, Spinarak

Is my pokemon non-evolved?

[classy_cat18]

Kyle: You get your coin. Fishing Game: 2 Stamps/CCPs. GT: This Pokemon is the first Ice/Grass Pokemon in the National Dex.

Alex: Yes, it is.

[lvl100mewtwo]

I'm gonna go with Smeargle as my guess?

[Knight of Time]

GT: I believe that would be Snover, Blue MGCoin if I'm correct, please.

[classy_cat18]

Alex: Nope.

Kyle: Correct. The coin is yours.

[lvl100mewtwo]

MP: Pinsir?

[classy_cat18]

Alex: Correct. What's your prize choice?

[lvl100mewtwo]

Ill take a blue MG coin and hand it back over for another MP game and a guess this as well! Thanks!

[classy_cat18]

Alex: MP: Oddish, Hoppip, Blaziken, Growlithe, Beautifly, Shiftry, Hoothoot, Tyranitar, Scyther, Machoke, Golem, Swablu, Torkoal, Onix. GT: This Pokemon preyed on Shellder, cracking open their shell with its fangs and slurping up the insides.

[lvl100mewtwo]

MP: Is my pokemon from Gen I?

GT: I'm gonna have to go with Omastar on this one (if correct, I'll take a Blue MG coin)

PS: did MLG send in their attack yet?

[classy_cat18]

MP: Yes, it is.

GT: Correct.

Your battle has been updated.

[lvl100mewtwo]

MP: does this pokemon require an elemental stone to evolve?

Thank you for reffing btw, appreciate it!

[classy_cat18]

No prob. And no, it doesn't.

[lvl100mewtwo]

I'm gonna go Machoke...

Might as well get a new poll in while I'm at it...

(12/30) With new years eve on the brink, do you have any big plans for how you will be celebrating the new year?
Well I'll be spending it no better way then I can imagine, with a couple of friends at a cottage, away from all civilization, with a lake to skate on to play hockey and various games throughout the evening and weekend, I really can't wait! And it also starts the Quarter Century celebrations for me, which should last a week long, oh boy... lol

[Lady Vulpix]

Alex: 10 Stamps/CCPs, Solar Gem

Since I'll be home when I check the forums tomorrow, I can answer the polls now.

(12/27) How do you guys find time for AC/CC?
I make my own time. I think of what to write next when I'm on the bus or doing anything that doesn't require concentration, and then take a few minutes each day to check the forum, and write a paragraph or two whenever I get the chance.

(12/28) With 2010 almost over, how do you think your whole 2010 turned out so far? What are you looking forward to in 2011, if anything (be it real life or not)?
I think it was good in average. I wish I'd made more progress with my thesis and written more, and I would have liked to change the one thing in my life that's been bothering me, but that may change next year, I have to keep my hopes up. I got to see Portugal and give my first lecture at an international congress, most of my family is doing well, I had many good experiences and AC/CC is back! All in all, I think the balance is positive.

(12/30) With new years eve on the brink, do you have any big plans for how you will be celebrating the new year?
Unless there's a sudden change of plans, my borther and I will go to our dad's place and celebrate with his side of the family.

[Knight of Time]

Gabi: Blue MGCoin, 1 Stamp/CCP, Spark Gem

(12/30) With new years eve on the brink, do you have any big plans for how you will be celebrating the new year?

Yeah, although I'm not really sure if the plans would count as being big, I'm going to celebrate it with my mom and my brother, and going to also likely watch the countdown to 2011 on one of the local Canadian channels out here.

[Wolfsong]

(12/30) With new years eve on the brink, do you have any big plans for how you will be celebrating the new year?

Not really. I have to work both new years eve and new years day

[lvl100mewtwo]

Hey gabs, just to make sure, are the 10 stamps for the battle or is it from an MG? If its from the MG, where does the Solar Gem come from?

Also, could I please get a Guess This? (Hands over 1 MG coin)

[classy_cat18]

Alex: If you make the poll for the day, you get two MGs instead of one. That's where the stamps came from. GT: This Pokemon is the only one who can learn both Poison Fang and Poison Tail by level up in the games. MP: No, it isn't.

Amy: Hollow Stone

Kyle: Rainbow Gem

[lvl100mewtwo]

GT: Seviper I do believe (I'll take a Blue MG coin)

MP: Scyther?

Ah, did not know that, my bad, lol... good to know about the poll thing!

[classy_cat18]

GT: Correct. MP: Nope.

[lvl100mewtwo]

MP: Golem

[classy_cat18]

You got it!

[lvl100mewtwo]

Lol, yay... Ill take a blue mg coin, bringing my total to 5 coins, and so now ill take my second EMT for the month please!

[classy_cat18]

Your second EMT is Splash. *winces*

[lvl100mewtwo]

Bahaha, wow... Irony...
