*bummed*

I don't know what it is, but I'm just really, really bad at this game, no matter how much I try.
*sigh* Ah well, maybe I'll get points for cheering for a team that's still going strong?

*gives you one of his points for good cheering* *assumes cheering is for darigan, as they are the ultimate champions of the universe of forever*

don't be too hard on yourself. I thought the exact same thing in round 1, and now I can actually score mind you i've only gotten 7 goals highest, but that's without good practice time. i'm in the middle of my exams, so i've only been playing here and there.

keep trying! you'll get it

4 to 1 my best win yet. *sucks hardcore at this game*

If Darigan loses this round feel free to blame me and my luck. I tend to be a bit of a team jinx whenever I participate in any type of multi-player deal.

they did the dates backward.... (right?) shouldnt it be ending 7/2/06 not 2/7/06 ?

[Nefasturris]

Check out Round 3 the date says 25/6/06. That means the dates are listed DD/MM/YY instead of MM/DD/YY

So Round 4 is ending 7/2/06

The way they have it written is actually standard date format (like writting 15 June 2006). Only Canada, Federated States of Micronesia, Palau, Philippines, and the United States write it as 6/15/06.

I owe a lot of people apologies and I can't even begin to describe the emotions of self-loathing at having become EVERYTHING I ever hated in my older brother. He's always been better at me at just about everything and he is such an annoying piece of #^&#! After hearing what everyone said, I looked back over my posts and realized I became what I hated about my brother.

I haven't been much of the fun-loving indiviual I once was. My job is HORRIBLE! I was supposed to be paid a WEEK AGO! The customers at the store get under my skin and I thought I was on the verge of a complete nervous breakdown today. The manager is a complete idiot that doesn't understand thing one about running the place and I've been a really foul mood running on next to no sleep, dealing with things that anger me, and just finally finding something I was good at. *phew* I hope nobody takes much of that to heart, I just needed to get everything that made me into horrible-Darigan_monster-guy off my chest.

I won't be playing much of Round 2 until Saturday and Sunday. I got more orders than I expected and I'll need a lot of time to fill them. I'm off of work Saturday, so I can cram in a LOT of games after all.

Once again, I'm sorry for being such a jerk.

Not all of us. I've been writing my dates D/M/Y for years now.

Has Lost Desert always been able to strafe? Or is this a new thing?

That's harsh on yourself... I actually thought you lent a bit of colour to the forums, instead of the usual diplomatic / "politically-correct" posts...

[okamotosan18]

lol, I just got 9 goals for the first time with 30 seconds left, and I think I just found out what you guys were talking about with the super-goalie XD
I was posting thinking this was new, and about half-way through remembered people talking about that

I've noticed a lot of strange moves like that too. I tend to ignore it as a weird programming glitch. (Makes it easier to still the ball from the Roos too )

[The Wonder Weezel]

hey, I've got something fun for you guys to do.... i made some little templates for you guys to use to you can Design your own Youyu ball!



example..



now your turn... imagine the youyu can be painted and thus can make a different youyu ball... what would it look like and what effects would it have on the game? (like speed, how it curves when being passed, or something more original!)
