Wave 3 is out December 7th! 3DS Rainbow Road! Ahhhhhhhhhh!

Just wanted to share my thoughts and memories regarding JDF. It has taken me a few weeks to process everything and this has affected me in a real way. I didn’t know the guy extremely well but me and my best friend got to meet him quite a few times and I feel I am pretty good judge of character. He was a good guy and he really did care a lot about the fans, embracing his character, and just having a lot of fun with his fame. That being said, the dude wasn’t perfect and nobody is. He had his demons, the biggest one being the tragic losses he experienced over his life starting with his brother and ending with his daughter a year ago (whom he actually found after she committed suicide). I believe the comic cons and the fans really kept him going and he stayed busy to keep the PTSD demon from destroying him. I believe that within the last year between losing his daughter and that destroying him and his family emotionally just did him in. I believed that from the get go. He actually had to cancel and reschedule his visits to Georgia last October because of a “family emergency” the day before I was going to meet him (had a ticket and everything ready). He never went into it and I never really dove into that to find out what happened. Then about a few weeks later he came to Georgia and I met him several times here. You could tell he was stressed out but he kept it hidden pretty well. Easily the coolest celebrity I have ever met (and I have met quite a few in my life, usually douchebags too). He talked to me 45 minutes at one of the events I attended and the other time a good 20 minutes or so. He didn’t try to rush me, he was very attentive and really engaged into our conversations. He did have an ego and that is probably why the whole Austin & JDF bs happened. Him and Austin also had beef from back in the day because he refused to stand with them against Saban which Austin never really got over. They also weren’t on good terms prior to the walkout because they both had huge egos and Austin acting like a teenager because he was one tended to really get under JDF’s skin. JDF also felt to some degree he needed to prove himself during his MMA stint and wanted to get Austin and CM Punk to fight him. People read into all that too much when it was just typical shit talk to try and prod them into a fight. When you are professional martial artist, you gotta have an ego at that level to be able to compete and JDF was very competitive. Unfortunately, it showed up in ways that were perceived negatively. I got nothing bad to say about him or the other living OG rangers. I have met all of them except for Amy Jo Johnson who I have yet to meet at an event. Even when I met Austin he treated me with a ton of respect, he talked to me for a good 15 minutes or so and didn’t try and rush me, and I had a legitimately good experience even if he did come off as a bit of an ass at times. Think he saw too much overseas, tends to be pretty typical of those have been in war zones or in the Army. I tend to come off the same way because I am also an Army Veteran so there was a mutual respect and understanding when it came to that lol. Anyways, here is my Tommy Oliver shrine with some signed merchandise. JDF was even cool enough to sign my MMPR The Movie SNES game. As far as his death goes, it is just a goddamn tragedy. I can’t imagine how hard it must have been for him and his wife to not only lose their daughter at 26 but also have to raise her 4 month old son as their own with the father of the child deciding to take them to court to get his son back. That is too much on anyone, especially someone who was already struggling badly with PTSD prior to all that.

Happy doge

Got a Shiny Marill (now Azumarill) and a Shiny Gyarados

Good games guys, nice work teammate Krazy. Nice to have Final Smashes on every once in a while, though clearly I'd forgotten how some of them work.

I hope all that are dealing with Jason David Frank's passing are able to find healing. The talent he provided as a Power Ranger across many seasons deserves all the thanks and praise. Jason David Frank played inspirational roles as Tommy Oliver and those roles will continue to inspire me after his passing. The White Ranger is my favorite Power Ranger, the Green Ranger is among my favorites and Zeo Ranger V, Red Turbo Ranger and Black Dino Thunder Ranger aren't far behind. His roles made kids want to grow up to be heroes and leaders, and it's sad to know that he is gone. I found out about this shortly after talking about Power Rangers with my family too and I'll get into that. Rest in peace, Jason David Frank. .... My family had asked me earlier this morning what my favorite Christmas gift was over the past 5 years since we're in the holiday season now, and I said it has got to be one of the collection Megazords I've received from my younger sister. I then narrowed that down to when I got the White Tigerzord and Saba...A little while after that I go on youtube to find a video to listen to while I grind in Metroid Prime Hunters, and I see a thumbnail and a title that's along the lines of R.I.P. JDF. My first thought is what was that about, so I go to Google and type in Jason David Frank. I see the news from tweets that pop up in the horizontal feed that appears within the search results, but I didn't believe it. I end up refreshing for the next 15 minutes, and as more credible sources popped up in tweets, the news began to hit me. I was on the verge of being very emotional, so I turned off my laptop, gathered myself, grabbed MPH and grabbed a water and went to isolate myself so I can work through Jason David Frank's passing. I ended up calling my younger sister, asked if she heard the news which she hadn't and I couldn't get out the words to tell her as I was too emotional to clearly speak. She thought something had happened to someone within our own family after that call, so I finally through text was able to come to an acceptance and share the unfortunate passing as I cleared up the situation with her. From there, I spoke with my Dad and shared the news. The communication with them helped me get through my emotions and to a more positive mindset. Those calls were made while I was in the middle of a session grinding away in MPH, as I felt I needed to play my favorite game to get better mentally. The most efficient spot to grind ironically is Incubation Vault 03, and while I played there my emotions toward the passing were coming in waves. The Green Power Ranger is one of my favorites, and I was being reminded of that character and the episode "Fighting Spirit" in Dino Thunder when Tommy must face that previous life. That too helped me work out my emotions, and getting back to feeling regular. I do hope those impacted are able to work through their own process as well during this difficult moment. Jason will be missed. If a person is feeling down, I hope they can will themselves to either friends and family to talk to and/or to activities and interests that they find comfort in. It's never good to deal with being down when in a void.

Probably because these Tempest Trials stories are the direct-to-video of FEH storytelling.

id like to thank all the hackers and leakers out there who dumped all the new pokemon effectively convincing me to buy sonic frontiers instead bc these creatures are mad ugly god bless

Finally got around to reading those reddit posts and the video timestamp ASJ confirms what pl thought what happened with the dropout of ASJ, Walter Jones and Thuy. Interesting. As for that motivational video by JDF a day before his death.... This is what I am talking about, how he would like to be remembered, man! That is just awesome as always! And just like I said about ppl you admire, they are ordinary ppl to first then anyone else. JDF said this in this video and it is so true and we forget and get so caught up with admiration that they like any other person out there on earth, just trying make our way in life no matter how good or bad thing happen in it. How to build a legacy and be remembered is important as he said, as long as your true to yourself and put yourself and surround yourself with positive ppl. Life is too short no matter what to doubt yourself or anyone else for that matter. Very powerful message, JDF! Very powerful indeed Tommy Oliver Power Ranger!

When I was looking at some more JDF stuff on youtube last night, randomly came across this ASJ interview video from a couple years ago... The part at 24 to 27 minutes in tells why he, Trini, and Zack left MMPR when it was still at the height of its popularity, and also why ASJ didn't like JDF. It lines up with what some said in the earlier posted reddit thread regarding the topic, but good to know still. Back to JDF though, came across this which I guess was either his last video or one of his last videos before he ended his life the day after. Even if he was still alive, I would say this was a video worth sharing for the motivational message it had. Everything he said was spot on, and it hits close to home in hindsight, but I think this video was the last thing he wanted to be remembered for, before he would leave this world the next day as he planned. Reading between the lines of what he was saying in that short video, you could tell he had some things wrong going with him and he kept a lot of things bottled up inside. Unfortunately, that is what's to be expected of men and their emotions, much as society has tried to break that, but after the thing with JDF and his wife, he had no one to turn to it seemed, so he just did that vlog as one last message for everyone.

done

I found a shiny Oinkolonge. Gonna name it Wilbur.

Props to Skeledirge for being the first fully-evolved starter since Gen 5 that looks like an actual Pokemon instead of someone's fursona.

why do i have to spend my days adulting? I just wanna go back and play Pokemons Anyhow, sofa acquired. It won't be out for delivery until we move in (obviously), but Davy and I found a pretty solid sofa (with chaise)+living room set for about $1000. I'm taking point on all the non-furniture items--cookware, television, and that sort of thing--so the next few days will be scoping out Black Friday deals. Please descend upon me a great deal for a small apartment-friendly cordless vacuum cleaner for hardware floors and carpet ye merchant deities. That said, as Black Friday deals are happening, I've been ordering stuff I need if it's on sale for 30% or more, so it's been exciting to get packages every few days. Another chore I'll probably do today is go through the closet and figure out how many of my old math/science textbooks I have. Not every bookshelf from IKEA can hold their load, and I honestly missed having easy access to my textbooks at my current job--especially my stats and general physics textbook. ----------------------------------- oh right, pogeymans, Honestly? I'm really enjoying Violet. Yes, the game's tech performance is held together by duck tape--it's rarely unplayable and most of the glitches are honestly pretty funny when they happen. Yes, it's an incredibly simplistic open world that isn't anything to write home about, especially considering the former. But Arceus damn it am I having fun. My team is a revolving door but I absolutely adore Quaxly's final evolution--big Pave vibes. My team has just been a revovling door of Pokemon because Gen 9 feels it's really vying for unique or rare type combinations. I tried, and eventually dropped, a fire/grass mon because they were kind of bad, but it's neat that exists. I *think* I've settled on my final party, and just need to level up some of the late editions and late-to-evolve mons, but I can probably finish the story this weekend. Once I finish the story, I'll probably collect the mons and be good there.

This recent reddit thread tells more about the JDF and ASJ situation better than I alone could. https://www.reddit.com/r/powerrangers/comments/z1h9ze/why_didnt_jdf_and_austin_st_john_get_along_hasbro/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf The diehard fans of Tommy/JDF who spoke badly about ASJ/Jason Lee Scott because JDF didn't like him and vice-versa always rubbed me the wrong way too. There didn't need to be that kind of division with two of the most beloved original rangers. The only reason JDF and ASJ ever saw each other again after the 90's was because of the Mighty Morphin reunion with the 2017 reboot film. Although that film was a mixed bag (though not as bad as other gritty reboots), the cameo JDF and Kimberly had at the end was nice. As far as the "never meet your heroes" saying, I think that goes for not just JDF (when he was alive), but any ranger or TV actor or whatnot. Seeing them for a few minutes at a comic con I hardly count far as that though, as they're still putting on a show there too for whatever fans they come across. Some other recent videos/links regarding the news worth posting- https://www.reddit.com/r/powerrangers/comments/z113s4/anythings_possible_tommy_oliver_1995/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf https://www.reddit.com/r/powerrangers/comments/z1crzs/ranger_staff_posts_about_jdf/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf Something I kept forgetting to mention, remember David Trueheart in Zeo? That was not only Tommy’s brother in the show, but JDF’s brother in real life, Erik Frank. Erik died young from an unspecified illness, so I guess to some extent, JDF’s family has always known tragedy.

I was aware of the JDF and ASJ grudge, I wouldn't say it is similar to The Rock vs Vin Diesel but yeah. What I wasn't aware if it they every bury the hatchet? Not say as a kid and even now watching the episodes were both JDF and ASJ were on screen, I guess I felt tension or they made fuel the scenes where tension needed to be. I am grateful ASJ made that video. As for the man that was JDF, like all ppl in life, we're complicated and without knowing the ins and out of his life completely no matter where you stand as fan or not. It is hard to put stake in either view that is who said person really is. I forget if this is a saying, 'don't meet your idols, they usually don't measure up to how you thought of them' comes to mind with JDF life is what it is. If you are fan from the start with him, then think of him that way and don't sway on that. That's the only thing I can say if ppl are looking for answers in JDF death and leading up to it. That's how I think he wants to be remember, his fans and family as well as our thoughts and prayers goes out to those who were close with JDF. That's all any of us can do, honor the man we remember JDF as and carry that in our hearts forever.

That was big of him. As kind of implied there and for anyone who didn't know, there was a grudge of sorts that JDF and ASJ had, since they were teens during the original show. It was over stupid stuff because they were essentially still kids at the time, but I became mixed on JDF as a person with some of the things I saw/heard him say about ASJ behind the show/scenes, and it's a shame that they didn't get to bury that hatchet, but in death, all debts are paid. Like Austin said, once a ranger, always a ranger. One other thing regarding the divorce Frank had earlier in the year, it was rumored he cheated on his wife, having an affair with someone else. When I first heard of that, I took it with a grain of salt and decided to wait upon further evidence, like with Austin St John and the wire fraud thing, but I didn't think it would lead to Frank ending his life... Not that that was the only factor. Looked into some other things this morning regarding what happened with Frank before all this, but apparently Hasbro (the current owner of the Power Rangers brand) was distancing JDF from the franchise? Also too, he was pushing for a lot of Tommy centric shows and things to happen, like a show about Lord Drakkon (the alternate timeline Tommy that remained evil and had the Green & White Ranger powers combined) and such, but Hasbro said no to that. I won't forget though this video he did for promoting the character. While we all got to love Tommy during his canonical development of going from evil to good, I can understand the fans that would've preferred Tommy had stayed evil, because the concept of an evil ranger that was introduced with the character was cool and he was cool as the evil green ranger... I still have VHS tapes of the Green With Evil episodes somewhere. I like White Ranger too, but Green had more an impact on me overall, along with the Dragon Zord. But yeah, I imagine JDF being denied more with Tommy didn't help with him; thanks Hasbro. And then there was the repetition for him of going to comic cons... Speaking of, I didn't know until after the fact that Frank lived in Texas where I'm at for the remainder of his life. Not in the same area as me, but a friend from that area said JDF had a dojo that was just a few minutes from where they live. I did know though Austin St John started living in Texas at some point, as do some other former rangers apparently (Adam and Rocky, to name a couple). Something else I read about JDF, he made an initiative to save local comic book stores during the height of the covid pandemic and signed a lot of things to do so. A big name like him really made a difference there. JDF still had a lot of time left, but this whole thing made me remember one thing, that I and we still have a lot of time left too. Life live to the fullest, it's what we can best do to honor his memory. That, and I guess rewatching some of the Power Ranger seasons with him sometime. Rest in Power.

Thanks for sharing those pics and your thoughts, RP. Either, I didn't have a lot of MMPR toys or had none. (Now that I think about, I didn't have or got a lot of action figure as child, it explains in my adult life I am catching up with that now, lol) As for me and my fave Power Ranger of back in the day, I can't think of any beyond Tommy himself. I could say Rocky, Zach, Adam, Aisha, Billy or Justin. The only one who comes close and he wasn't a Power Ranger for long but his torch was passed by Tommy is TJ. Seeing black man lead the Power Rangers is a moment I can't forget being black myself. As for my favorite time as Tommy has gotta be when it became the White Power Ranger. (I think he was that ranger the longest, if I am not mistaken? Tho all colors he don were great and I think were for a while, the first White Power Ranger was pretty awesome and cool) The fact he turn bad against his will as the Green Power Ranger, went good, lost his power as the Green Power Ranger to eventually be the White Power Ranger was amazing to me. It shows that he went thru so much adversity and still preserver, similar like Jason, Kimberly and Kat when they were most vulnerable without their morpher or were drained of power. That's what I loved about the character Tommy the most as whole and why the White Power Ranger was just so awesome!

Looking through my old closet, saw that I still had these toys. Not in the best shape now though as you can see... For the Megazord, one horn from the Mastadon part, the head of the Sabretooth Tiger part, and the Power Sword got lost somewhere. The power weapons just got bent out of shape over time. Played with that stuff too hard at times as a kid, but the Megazord can still move and make sounds with the remote control. I remember wanting to get a Dragon Zord toy, but it was usually sold out. I should’ve gotten the dragon flute though at least. One of my neighborhood friends at the time had toys of Saba and the White Tiger Zord. The black ranger (Zack or Adam) was initially my favorite, having had a costume of it, but then it pretty much became a tossup between Jason Lee Scott and Tommy Oliver; not just in Mighty Morphin but Zeo and whatever else they appeared in, though Tommy had more appearances, being essentially Saban's golden child. Black Dino Thunder Ranger was pretty notable too. I still haven't fully processed JDF's death yet. Even now, I occasionally get sad when looking back on Trini (Thuy Trang) and remembering her passing, along with that of others in the series (Mighty Morphin and beyond). This happening barely a week or so after the animated Batman's passing doesn't help either. I am looking forward though to what all touching things those who trained with Frank and his ranger co-stars will have to say on him and his passing, particularly the one who played Kimberly. Oh, aside from something earlier about JDF’s wife (or former wife) leaving him, his step daughter killed herself last year, leaving a 6 month old behind. Looks like they all had a rough time and it was just one thing after another. Wish he had found or gotten help somewhere, but alas.

Like most and Ithrak here, JDF was a role to most kids in the 90's through his portrayal of Tommy Oliver on the original MMPR. In the 90's, I saw the name Tommy synonymous with courage, leadership and doing the right thing. Tommy from the Rugrats had that in common with Tommy from MMPR. So tho, I haven't kept up with JDF as late, he never be forgotten what he meant to me as kid watching being model hero. That doesn't mean this news doesn't hit me less or harder but at the end of the day this is a guy who influenced a lot ppl around the world, that anyone can be hero. Rest in Peace Jason David Frank.

Beyond the tutorial of the game, which is about an hour or so and is the worst start I've had with any game I've had anticipation for on the Switch...Pokemon Scarlet is turning out to be a great time in spite of its flaws in presentation. It remains great in core mechanics, character design and in Pokemon design, so while there's plenty I could be negative about I'm personally not having a negative experience overall. I consider it a great sign that I played until my Switch died while watching @TKrazyO's stream. Normally, I would cut my session with a game short and let my Switch charge docked for a bit, but Scarlet kept me hooked as I didn't want to put the game down once it opened up. If Nintendo does an end of year stats log like they did last year, I wouldn't be surprised if 11/19 or 11/20 is the day I played the Switch the most with Pokemon Scarlet being the main game.

It's been a long while since I've posted here, but these latest purchases, couldn't be even more happy, so just gotta share them. Got Pyra and Mythra last week, and I finally got around to opening the XC3 SE box. Unfortunately no plans to get Nia or Melia though.

It’s extremely cold and snowing I don’t like it. At all.

Watched Mask of the Phantasm BR off that box set from a few years ago in remembrance.

I might have to consider getting a newer version of the Arkham games at some point now, not that I have that much free time at the moment, but replaying them in Conroy’s honor will give a different feel no doubt. The Arkham collection will probably go up in sales after today’s news. He apparently passed after a short battle with cancer. Hate to say it, but he did look pretty thin and frail in his most recent years… R.I.P. He was the voice of a generation.

Hold the presses! Big’s fishing mini game in Sonic Frontiers… is actually tolerable!

A lot of the “big name” advertisers have already abandoned ship. What’s most likely to happen is that Elon will gradually get bored/frustrated from people leaving the site over whatever shitty changes he makes until he eventually gives up and sells it back to the original owners for a fraction of what he originally paid for it.

Possible solution: Everybody DM me their address and I'll buy them all copies of Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. directly. Cut out the middleman!

Try Crazy Eight and Green Shells. Earlier, I did a combo of Crazy Eight and Stars only, and my Crazy Eight came with 8 Stars instead of the 8 standard items! It was amazing!

Pretty nifty new features!

Phazon on Tallon IV seems tame compared to what it became like as the Trilogy went on. Aside from the Chozo, who rejected Phazon, I cannot recall Phazon causing noticeable harm to life on the world in the time Samus is there. That may be due to sealing away a large portion of the world's Phazon beyond the seal of the Artifact Temple, in the depths of the Impact Crater. Space Pirates still played with fire quite a bit and seemed like Phazon largely benefited them, with the rise of Elites and Omega. The Mawkin Tribe probably would have been much worse than the Space Pirates as a potential and growing threat. I couldn't imagine Raven Beak would reject Phazon for the tribe, instead would make an effort to harness its power and Phazon probably would be willing to give it. Assuming that any Chozo outside of ZDR are Thoha, had the Tallon IV Thoha decided to harness Phazon in moderation, could they have prevented the development of Flaahgra and saved their water supply in the Chozo Ruins? With the difference between Phendrana Drifts and the Chozo Ruins, arguably the Space Pirate activity there exploring the potential of Phazon may have saved the local ecosystem from becoming as poisoned as the Chozo Ruins. Tallon Overworld is also in a fantastic state, and goes to show that the Chozo deciding to take action made quite a difference for that region considering that the Artifact Temple and Cipher are there. If the Mawkin Tribe were on Tallon IV, I don't think the world would be as wondrous as it would likely have more industrial developments; however, I don't think the planet would've gotten poisoned anywhere near the same extent as Phazon would be taken and processed away from the ecosystems and brought in to be harnessed and for experimentation. I didn't realize how formidable the Ing are until answering whether or not the Mawkin would overcome the Horde's threat. The Ing may be the strongest localized, intelligent race in the series...I don't have any entity beating them aside from those established across multiple worlds and with interplanetary fire power, i.e. Galactic Federation, Space Pirates and Alimbics. The Mawkin seem like they would be capable of creating their own technology to protect them from a dark world and potential possession, but I think those advancements at their best would go to Raven Beak while the rest of the tribe gets scraps in comparison. If the overall Mawkin Tribe had even half of what Raven Beak gets, they would be at the table as one of the most powerful groups in the series.

RE: Reroll

Beam Burst is only effective with Metroids I think if you already have the ice beam, and you do get that in Returns first from what I remember, which decreased the extent of which you had to use missiles on them. Yeah, would have to agree that the particular Mawkin tribe in Dread would be similarly doomed in many previous instances in the series due to the ego or arrogance of Raven Beak; sacrificing everyone else to protect himself if he has to, like how he initially handled the X on ZDR. They may have put up quite a fight on Tallon IV though, as I assume the Chozo there that became ghosts were pretty much all Thoha instead of Mawkin. Still, Phazon can ruin just about anyone’s day if not careful since the only thing super effective against the most pure forms of Phazon is… an overdose of itself, though I assume a similarly power weapon (outside of Samus’s non-Phazon arsenal in the Prime trilogy) could still put a dent in such beings. With all the other powerful things we’ve seen in the series at this point, I could no longer go on some no-limit assumption of what Phason could withstand, not that I should’ve to begin with I suppose. And the Ing? Yeah, the Mawkin would need more than just their spears to handle them too. Also a question if they could handle Dark Aether’s environments, where the Ing are at their strongest.

I've seen it mentioned a while back that Raven Beak is making use of Beam Burst and Lightning Armor Aeion abilities. I do want to pay attention to the statuary on SR388 more the next time I play Samus Returns, because I don't remember seeing Raven Beak depicted. If it is him though and those statues are tied to where the Aeion abilities are obtained, putting the two together would suggest that the Mawkin developed those Aeion abilities to potentially be used in assisting in the containment of the planet's Metroids. I don't recall how effective either is when dealing with the Metroids though, especially dealing with the more developed evolutions. There is an interesting topic on the Metroid subreddit asking if the Mawkin Tribe could have defeated the Ing, and I'm interested to see how people here view the Mawkin Tribe in relation to other advanced races and threats. Personally, I think, in spite of how advanced they are, they are doomed due to the ego of Raven Beak and would have a worse time with the Ing than the Luminoth if they had to deal with such a threat. I would also take the Alimbics in a head to head against the Mawkin Tribe.

The 3rd Team Ironman Smashdown for the year has concluded and here are the results! It was a merry Christmas to team Eli with an astonishing 20 points! Followed by team DL with 2 points. Congrats to team Eli for this month Team Smashdown winner! And as always thank you for the stream Krazy! Next Smashdown is Jan 7th. The next Team Smashdown is on April fools of all days. (Not a joke look it up) We got do something special that will throw anyone into more chaos for that night? We have time to think of ideas, I'd love to hear them! GGGs.

We had inventory moved so technically I am free.

The credits rolled on my adventure, still a lot to do. Still formulating my thoughts on the three path approach. I think there are some things they could do better next time around. Level scrolling is a must.

Ggs. Lag got bad in spots. Min min for the win win.

I caaaan

Got Violet earlier in the evening Still mildly annoyed that I’ve been somewhat spoiled at glimpses at some of the Pokemon though through Twitter despite trying my best to avoid seeing Scarlet/Violet stuff in general Spent more time deciding between make of female trainer Sometimes I’ve chosen the female trainer in games if i prefer it Considering the lack of outfits from what I’ve heard, i guess it doesn’t matter too much in the end - guess I’ll just choose the male trainer Still going with the cat, though - can always trade for the others

Got my first shiny in Violet last week. Found it in a Tera raid den. I didn’t even notice until I saw the shiny icon while browsing through my boxes. I evolved it too.

Mario Party ran pretty smooth IMO. Game looked really sharp. Those signal bar drops were kind of off and on and kind of weird.

It is Wednesday my dudes (starts streaming today!)

I shall make adjustments accordingly in that case
