General Chat XXXIX: Reading Rainbow Returns Edition.

Hey guys, can we all skype chat during Nintendo's (and possibly Sony's) E3 event? We don't need to voice chat, but text chat at least. Actually I think I would prefer text chat so it will be easier to listen in to what they're saying.

Who's down?

*was already planning on doing just that and has done so for the past few years*

What's your skype ID Luna? Mine is LoomDoom.

Actually, I want everyone's. I only have Mazer's and Smirky's.

Hmm....have we done a group chat during e3 in this place? I've been in at least one the past few years. Though the last two years has included twitter in my live reactions/ranting to E3. I think we might have had a group chat here, but we might have done it on mazar's live stream. I think I had been lobbying mazar to make the skype group for events like this.

Also, I'm not sure what my skype name is, because I signed up for skype using my email from msn(I migrated over). If you're in the wss skype group, though, you can add me through that.

So TW bumped up my internet speed from 20mbs down/2mbs up, to this:

Very nice!!!! Must be to counter the huge rate of Fios increase lately.

Also; Koeing. I am moving you SteamLords to the Creative Thread

Only services available in my area are TWCable and ATT. I think they're afraid of Google though. I can't wait for Google to move into this area and force them to further upgrade.

What are you going to do with this new hyper mega awesome internets?

*tries another anime at random*

I'm not sure....I have a lot of devices connected to the internet at my home and lately it's been  feeling like it's lagged, hopefully that won't be an issue anymore.

Also, once again, I suggest:
Demon King Daimao
Aesthetics of a Rogue Hero

*writes the down*

My bad Mazer, I forgot about the separate forums.

I see, well, I want to be in the group!

Mazer, how do I get in on this Skype group!? I want to be able to get reactions with everyone.

That was simultaneously one of the most interesting yet most disappointing anime I have ever watched, though I am sure Mazer will love it for the fan service.

Yeah, it'll be fun.

I just found it to be fun as hell. It also helped that at the time I was tired of wimpy main characters and this one has one that isn't. He's a bit of an idiot and dense, but a wimp he's not.

I shall add you to the group, tonight

I found a "nathaniel loomis" from telluride, that you loom? If so, I think I might be able to add you to the group.

I just noticed the setup thread is gone. Mind if I make a new one in the media section?

crap I keep forgetting to make a Skype account

I will admit that It was one of the few anime where I gave a crap about the main character. However it disappointed me in the long run, the story felt convoluted, the fan-service was abundantly out of place, the world and side characters were woefully underdeveloped, etc.  That and partook in another one of my biggest pet peeves in the forum of god slaying.  I don't know what Japan has against gods or the idea of a God, but if one is included in a story it ALLWAYS seems to become the villain.

I actually really loved the "god slaying" thing.

alright peoples, post your setups!

I probably would not mind if every anime and JRPG did not do it as a rule, as is I find it to be old and very dull.
