Super Smash Bros. Brawl Schedule, & other things

Unfortunetly, you can't send invites to certain people{or whoever is on, for that matter} from w/in the game. Therefore,

My Super Smash Bros. Brawl schedule
Mon-Thu.:
4pm-11pm EST/DST anytime I'm on after 11pm, I'll generally be on till 1am, or 2am.

Fri-Sat.:
4pm-11pm, anytime I'm on after 11pm, I'll generally be on till 3am

Sun:
Same as Mon-Thu., except I am off from 8pm-9pm, & then i get back on at 9pm.

These times I listed, do not mean I absolutely will be on at those times. These times in the more general sense only reflect when I'll probably{as in "most likely to"} be on, not definitely.

For conveniance, I'm also going to try to include in every one of my blogs my Wii Friend Code{abbreviated FC}, my Brawl code, my Mario Kart code{when I get the game at the end of this month}, & any other of my game codes. For now, this is it. Wii FC: 7239-1283-3360-1745
Brawl code:3136-6357-8439
MKW: N/A as of now

Some people don't know where their code is. The location of games code is different for each game. Generally, the game's code is a 12 digit{divided into 3 groups of 4} code that is made by combining the game code, w/ the Wii code, to create a new unique code, so if you sell{or give away} the game, or the Wii, your idenity doesn't get sold{or given away}. The Wii FC never changes. It is always the same number, availible always in the same location. From your Wii main menu, click the letter icon at the bottom right of the screen. Now you're in the Wii message board. Now, you should see 3 icons: the Wii icon at the bottom right, where the letter icon was, the calendar at the bottom left, & next to the calendar is the create message icon{paper, & pencil icon}. Click the paper, & pencil icon{create message}. Now, you have yet again 3 choices. This time: memo{far left option}, send a letter to someone on your friends list{middle option}, & Address book{far right option}. Choose Address Book. the 1st page of the address book is your Wii console's #. You, & someone else must give your FCs to each other, & enter them on your respective Wii FC lists. Then, when you 2 are online, your consoles will "talk" to, & registar each other. Now, when your WiiConnect24/7 is on, you can send/receive messages to your buds.

Now, for the final part of this blog entry, I'm going to try, & start syncing my blogs, also include in future blogs my alternate game site idenities, so people can still access/contact me, should one site go down, or if I'm on 1, more than the other.
I'm know as:
CaptN at Gametrailers.com

It's all the same! So, I'm staying here at GS!

GameSpot is own by Cnet
Gametrailers is owned by Spike, who is owned by MTV Networks{Viacom} IGN is owned by Fox Networks
1up is owned by Ziff Davis Holdings{ZDnet is connected to/owned by Cnet}

My point is, all these sites are connected to a network. Note that I didn't say the same network; I said a network. Thus, all these sites advertise in some various ways, shapes, & forms. So, bias is on almost every game site. As I've said in my blog, twice before, & as I'm saing now, it is a matter of Pick Your Poison. I'm not saying I'm convinced that Jeff getting canned wasn't a shaddy looking deal, but All games sites pull these tricks. It's just that Cnet got caught w/ dirty hands, if this is a dirty deal. It's almost always better to:

1. have accounts at multiple gaming sites, &
2.listen to other player reviews, mostly, as opposed to site editors reviews

Doing These nearly ensure that if you investigate a game clearly by researching it, you'll find it's easier to get a handle on the state of a game being good, or bad. You can't trust only one site. I'm staying at GS for the community. But, I also am at other game sites. I don't know about any of you other Cnet Entertainment users, but I'm staying.

The fireing of Jeff Gerhsmann

All game sites are prone to this, & participate/take part in these types of activities. The only difference here, is that Cnet/GS got caught with their hands dirty. If they could've covered this up, it's a sure bet they would've. As I said, other game sites take part in these activities daily, we just don't know about it, cause they generally cover their tracks, pretty well. So like I said today in my short blog about this, I really don't know if I'll stay here, or not, because the situation's just as bad elsewhere. So, it's really a matter of, as I said in my blog, "Pick Your Poison". I never trusted the score system here anyway. I always only looked at the in depth portion of reviews here anyway. On top of that, I mostly only read the GS user reviews, & very rarely, more like occasionally, the actual staff reviews. I don't remember for how long, but Cnet has been moderatly waning in quality over some time. And they're a business. So, I'm kinda not really surprised. The various opinions of Jeff, & myself may not have always been in step w/ one another, but what's the point is that he gave his honest opinion. And that's part of what journalism is about; Giving the facts about something, then giving their own spin on any given issue, only after the facts have been given. Should this be true, The only thing that, from my point of view can redeem GS, is if they bring back Jeff, &/or give him an apology, or GS should give a legitimate reason why they fired a senior editor of 10 years. If he got canned for doing something he legitimately shouldn't have been doing, I can accept that. But if he got severed, for just giving his honest opinion, then that's just knocked both Cnet/GS down a few points w/me, as it concerns creditbility, & anti-censorship. This is unfortunetly, ... corporate America. I guess I'm just dissappointed in Cnet, & GS. but like I said, I'm not really surprised, since I've know for awhile about Cnet falling from grace at a moderate paceing for the past while. The sad thing is, this guy just lost his job, for doing his job. *sarcasim*->Maybe he didn't get the memo, ...Cnet, & GS are now making their editors' opinions for them. maybe he did, & choose to be the rebel, or maybe he did it to stand up for his pride, & integrity. Personally, I've noticed as of late GS is a little more internet-gustapo-ish, & strict on things. For instance, a month, or so ago I got a warning for "bumping a topic" w/ a "rant". What's interesting is, in the GS TOS, there is no exact definition, of what amount of time needs to pass that posting on an older topic constitutes a ban, or a warning. As a matter of fact, there is very little definitive rules in this "bumping" issue. I guess for most of the TOS, they{Cnet, & GS} expect me to use common sence, or be clarivorant to keep in check. I guess they do want people to do just that, so that people don't purposely come to the edge/threashold of TOS violation, w/o going over the edge so they technically can't get in trouble. Anyway, I'm posting this exact post on my blog.

Jeff...Gone?! Rumor? Unfair Actions? What?!

So, a "senior editor" is gone, or dismissed, fired, or ...something. I've seen some blogs; Those knee-jerk reactions from people. I don't know the full story. I know that somewhere I read something about a game company pulling the financial plug, because Kane, & Lynch got a poor review. I don't know the story on Jeff, but I do know that most game sites get some sort of financial kickbacks from game companies, & in return, the game reviews on said sites, are in favor of said games being good. I'm awaiting further details on this whole issue. If Jeff got canned for giving his honest review on game{s}, then I am not sure if I will leave GS, or not. Because any other review site I go to, will, more than likely, have it's own share of untrustworthy, money-driven reviews, &/or maybe some other unsavory things. So, it's a matter of "Pick Your Poison!". Anyway, this whole thing may be just an inflated rumor. At worst, it sheds light on the already-known fact, that game reviews sites, get financial kickbacks from game companies/developers, to in return make their games desirible to buy, by way of giving said games positive ratings.

10.0 Perfect
Kim Possible
Avg Score: 8.74    Total Ratings: 2538    Total Reviews: 320
Users who agree: 3   
The summary says a lot about Kim Possible, but mostly sums it all up. Kim Possible is about a girl named Kim possible, and her friend Ron stoppable, going on missions to help others from whatever crisis they may have. The show has, is, and probably will continue to exceed all other Disney Channel programming. Kim possible is truly a gem that makes Disney Channel even noticeable; The reason why you even flip to Disney in the first place. This show has action, comedy, and in later seasons, romance. The shows creators, Bob Schooley, and Mark McCorkle, have made Kim Possible truly phenominal. This show deserves an A+, & it gets said A+ from me.

An AMV about Kingdom Hearts. Just a general KH. No pairings really, thought it's about Riku, Kairi, and Sora.

This is my first attempt at making an AMV; my first time using Movie Maker as well. It is probably not the best there is.
