Survived another week of absolute mayhem! Allright, perhaps not "mayhem", but definately a sprinkle of chaos in school life. It's the second week without a Geometry teacher (both a blessing and a curse...), PLAN (Pre-ACT tests) are Tuesday, class rings come in next week, and oh yes! The Music Box is definately due for an update. (I need motivation... I mean positive motivation, people!) --;

Well, the turn out for the "Q & A Triple Triad Contest" wasn't exactly a success... although I really appreciated all of the entries I received. Thanks for entering. ...all five of you...

Here are the results:

• 1st Place: Val Shrum. I really like his style of artwork. It reminds me slightly of preliminary sketches of an independent comic I once read. Very nice job. ^_^

• 2nd Place: Saki Wright. Absolutely adorable SD cards. Brad is depicted as an oracle, of course, and I'm depicted as a member of the Turks! How awesome is that? Of course, if I was pictured with the motley crew I'd look like Posh Spice... but I'd still have a great hat.

• 3rd Place: Xellos Rogue. I'm simply enchanted by the card designs on the front. This is a perfect example of what I meant by "being creative". Using a little bit of image editing could've helped these cards...
  ..but Brad's card had me laughing. ^_^ (Monkey Boy is trying to come out of the poor lad.)

• Honorable Mention: Leland Aldridge. This was the very first entry I received. Nice job for image editing in a jiffy... and a superb job sucking up to me with the card values. ^_^

A damn Safety Bit? Hehe.. I always liked those. My problem was finding those darn Economizers from Brachosaurs... but that story could involve a lot of censoring and ranting, so I'll pass on that.

I was never much of a stealing or mugging fan in Final Fantasy 6, so I never attempted to steal from Doom in Kefka's Tower. The only way of acquiring a Ragnarok sword that I was aware of was to choose it over the Ragnarok esper when you're offered the choice in Narshe. I took the sword over the esper in my game, and deeply regret it. (I learned 3 days later that the Ragnarok esper teaches you the "Ultima" spell. ;_;) Although through battles at the Colosseum I was able to upgrade the Ragnarok to an Illumina sword, (it's a nice sword!) it wasn't nearly as efficent as the Esper would have been.

My only advice to you is to keep trying and to stick it out. If anyone can help further, please drop me a line. :)

Wasup? Listen I have a question..I bought Final Fantasy Anthology and in the beginning of FF6 it shows a really whacked FMV before the real opener. You know the one with all the different glimpses of different scenes... What is that/? Are they just different clips of FMVs to come in the game or what?
Please clear this up for me

Veronica:
I've decided to pass on playing Final Fantasy 6 included in FFA until I get a hefty amount of freetime. (which equates to probably never) From what I understand, the FMV in question is just lots of snipits from events that occur within the story. (Those of you who played the SNES version were probably able to identify most of them, like I was. ^_^)

There are three main FMV movies: The Intro, The Ending, and the Opera movie. The Opera movie is a movie that you can view via the Bonus Menu that is a recombination of the Beginning and End with the Opera music.

If you're still having a hard time understanding all of the flashes in the introduction, don't fret. You should be able to identify them by the time you complete the game.

Thanks

Veronica:
You certainly will. The PocketStation is compatible with North American PlayStations, but simply isn't sold here in the States. If you can import one, you shouldn't run into any lockout problems. Nice, huh? ^_^
