Well, Neo had asked how many people were waiting in line for Gym Leaders, which would lead one to believe he intended on challenging Wattson... and he did get there first, although a battle with Wattson could take a long time...

Hmm. Quite the dilema... Perhaps I should use pattern J1M 1_34D3R? Yes, I think that one should do nicely. Expect a new thread with the rest of the updates tomorrow.

"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

Six. Both his IPA have six. Both of Roxanne's have four, and all of Wattson's have eight... are we picking up a pattern?

All right, but I got a couple of conditions for you. Meet these and you're in.

1. Post around a bit more, all right? I'm kind of nervous that you'll be one of those ditch-us-after-a-few-weeks types. You'll be getting the first D/P Starter (OMG SPOILER) so I don't want that to happen.
2. Get an avatar. I think the reason you're making me nervous is the lack of one. The space under your name is so... empty. It's like, "I used to have an avatar... but I KILLED it. Mwahaha!"

...Ok. Silver thinks not having an avatar makes someone a murderous psycho. Silver is clearly loosing his mind. So here's your egg...

It'll hatch Wednesday. And watch out. It's slightly radioactive.

Ok, 2 things.

1) I want my avatar to be something that I drew, and I don't know how to upload and downsize it

2) I'll be sure to wear my lead suit

1. (Wait, wasn't this 2 before...?) I'm going to assume that you have a scanner, digital camera, or some way of getting the image into the computer... from there, copy it into paint, and you can shrink it using Image-Stretch/skew, or just selecting it and dragging the arrows. MS Paint does tend to make things pixelly when you shrink them, though, so if you want to preserve the quality a little more, you can use Photobucket. Not as many shrinking options, but I find it works a bit better... and you'd have to have saved it anyway. And make sure you save it as the propper file type (go for .gif. I've always had problems with .png on this forum for some reason).

2. Good. You might want to have some Radioactiv-Freak-B-Gone ready, too, just in case. Those things can be vicious, man.

png files always worked fine for me. Although the forums seem to be case sensitive when it comes to file names so there's a difference between png and PNG.

...Eh? I... really typed that? Geez, I probably shouldn't try to update IPA while Melvin is saying, "Watch Natto* pweese?" ...It's not the first time it's happened, actually; I just usually correct it before the post goes through, or at least anyone sees it. Here's how it goes...
1. I realize that there's some kind of abnormality in type match up, as in, it doesn't just do normal damage.
2. Due to Melvin pestering me about fermented bean ninjas, I don't pay attention and type an incorrect type matchup phrase.
3. I go to check the numer of wins of the attacking Pokemon, seeing if it warrants a one hit KO, new attack, or somesuch.
4. I read the mistake I've typed, assume I was sane while typing it, and go with that. Sometimes I'll figure out that I made a mistake... and sometimes I won't. Like this time.

And, while you were reading Silver's excessively long-winded excuse, and being informed that he does know what types his mutant creatures are, he has editted the post without you noticing.

*This is how she pronounces 'Naruto'. She likes watching it on my computer, at least the openings and endings. I frequently have "Seishun Kyosokyouku" and "Yura Yura" stuck in my head... Er, I just find it kind of funny that her three-year-old accent makes it sound like something else.

It was lonely... you promised you'd write to me, but you never did... the months passed by, and I still thought of you every day, but you never called. I never got any letters from you.

So eventually, I started to lose faith... I thought you had been killed in that terrible, terrible war. Or maybe that you had forgotten about me. It's been so long, you probably found another girl over there... I never stopped loving you, but I didn't think you cared about me anymore, so welcoming you back just would have been too painful for me... I'm sorry. I'm glad you've come back home *sniff*
