    Tournament Ideas re-vamped

    Definitely in the camp of this year's league being Gen IV. Gen V tournaments etc throughout the year though, more than happy to get involved with. Especially VGC11 ones.

    NetBooks or Laptops?

    Tablets aren't worth the money at the moment though. You've listed exactly both the options available, and the iPad is automatically ruled out for being an iPad. In a few years, with Android 3+ and better hardware, tablets will be a much more viable option, but as it is, they're both just...

    Operating Systems and Web Browsers

    I run Chrome on my Netbook because it's more lightweight than Firefox. Firefox on Windows 7 with just the power of the Netbook would be rather soul crushing. Runs perfectly fine on the Ubuntu side, of course, but that's to be expected.

    NetBooks or Laptops?

    It's not an either/or situation, really. Laptops fulfil a much deeper level of function than Netbooks do, and the cost and size of them reflect that. Netbooks, meanwhile, are cheap, simple and provide good Internet access and basic PC functions on the go. Laptops these days are really not...

    Operating Systems and Web Browsers

    PC: Runs Vista and Firefox as default, but has IE8, Opera, Chrome and Safari installed. Dual boots with Ubuntu 10.4 which also uses Firefox. Laptop: Runs Vista and Firefox as default, also has Chrome installed. Dual boots with Ubuntu 10.10 which uses Firefox exclusively. Netbook: Runs Windows...

    Daylight Savings Time

    That's not why its done. Giving people more daylight during the morning originates wholly from farming - allowing farmers the light necessary to get their work done at the unGodly times of the morning they have to be up at. Without Daylight Savings time, they'd find it increasingly difficult to...

    Pokécharms.com Winter WiFi Tournament: The results are in!

    Re: Pokécharms.com Winter WiFi Tournament: Official Battle Thread Second battle with LoN was also a victory, so that gives me the best of three. :) Good matches, even if the final outcomes were very similar. :x

    Re: Pokécharms.com Winter WiFi Tournament: Official Battle Thread 1st match against LoN was a very difficult and close win.

    What's your favourite feature on Pokecharms?

    Hmm, I dunno if it's really fair to give my opinion, but I guess that I'd probably vote for the Forums/Chat, since, ultimately, they're the part of the site I'm most satisfied with. The news, the Dex, the TCM, and to a lesser extent the Wiki, all require further development and work for me to...

    Sem vs Red! Updated Feb 12th

    Re: Sem vs Red! American 'pancakes' aren't real pancakes. I do love a nice sweet sugar waffle thingy though. Especially with ice cream and chocolate and stuff. And it has to be warm. A very nummy desert.

    Confrontations

    Pretty much no-one here will ever have seen me lose my temper. It's not something I'm prone to doing on a regular basis (and those that know me the most will know that I can get a bit angry and vocal anyway - so trust me when I say that's not me losing my temper), but on the few occasions that I...

    Alex's 2010 Review of The Gaming Year

    Instead of just doing a plain top 10 list of the best games this year, I’m going to be going over the entire year in gaming, picking out some of the best and some of the worst examples of gaming in each month, as well as what was going on in the wider world of the Games Industry at the time...

    King of Lucario's Video Game Championship 2011 BattleDex (OUTDATED)

    Re: King of Lucario's Video Game Championship 2011 BattleDex A great list, KoL. I've got a fair idea where I'd look for a VGC11 team - which isn't something I even had an inkling of before. I'm fairly tempted to just give in and finally put together a Trick Room team - but I'd still rather find...

    Your Games of the Season

    I'm going to count the season as "next year when I have the money to actually buy some games". I definitely need to pick up Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood (once I've completed AC2, that is), and I'm quite interested in RB3 - though I may skip it for now. I also need to complete Fable II so I can...

    Confrontations

    I generally pick my battles depending on whether or not I can be bothered. If I can be bothered, good luck shutting me up.
