Ok, serious time!
When I'm on the beat, opping in #eb, should I have a sneaking suspicion that you're all trying to kill me? And why does everyone blame stuff on me? Why can't we just blame it on SLing and be happy?......
Oh, wiat, I liek PK Hack. Heh.
~NeoPaula

Silly NeoPaula, you have to be our scapegoat because you're just under completely insane (see crayzay-ometor in box title.) If we tried blaming everything on Sling he'd be all DON MAKE TEH FUNZ0RZ OF TEH SLIN!@!#$!*^$ and we'd eventually die.
~diospadre

Don't you know? SLing can't take all the blame. But you can, therefore we blame all on you.

Making EarthBound
If PK Hack is so good, let's just make EB64 with it. You know, totally change the storyline, swap the names around, make Kraken a good guy, things like that. We just take everything we know about EB64 so far, and make up the rest. The only problem is, despite the fact that this game has been in development since Nintendo Power had an Epic Center, we only know around 3% of the plot/ideas they've worked out. So the question is this: who's gonna write some plot for us, that won't be lame, and that can fill in as many blanks as possible? My own answer: I dunno, but not Buzz Buzz. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go play some classic RPGs from the Epic Center days...
~SimonBob

While it's true that EB64 is almost dead (go petition!) it is still alive in all of us. Whether what will eventually be produced is nowhere near what EB64 would have been, it will be great!
~diospadre

Lemme make a statement right now-PK Hack can hack EarthBound, but you cannot make EB64 with it. We can't do THAT much.

Crashing
Yes, I'm making a hack. I work on it during C++. Unfortunately I don't think it's playable. Every time I try it my laptop crashes. I'll try it on a "real" computer sometime.
dios, you're cool. And so is ... whoever else is answering this week.
~Salivar

Hate to break it to you, but even though its tiny, a laptop still is a real computer. My best advice to you is to get another ROM and apply the patch to it, to make sure you haven't somehow corrupted the game data.
~diospadre

Yay, I'm cool. You all love my singing.

Team TRUE
Glad you asked :D
Anyways, Im working on the theme of the forum, team TRUE. When you first start off you wake up to different theme, instead of a meteor falling. Then when you get up, you realize your mom who knew all you life is a NOA spy, then engage in battle with her and I'll leave the rest for surpise. I'm sure other people are working on a simular hack. Also, I figured out how to make certain stuff happen with the text editor (ie: make battles, music, sound effects, blah blah). Thank you for listening to my long story, you are as intelligent as I thought.
~Stkboy87

Ah yes, the TRUE hack. Though many don't know anything about it, it's gonna be huge. Anything associated with Tomato tends to ooze quality.
~diospadre

Yay, the more versions of EB the merrier. Or something.

Mugz0rz!
I would just like to say that you did an excellent job picking the winners for the Summer Funfest. And also, when will the Halloween FunFest begin? A lot of people have already begun to make their entries (Including myself). Also, will there be any new prizes, like more mugz0rz?
~eduD edisnooM

Well, Halloween is in like only a month, so it's obviously gonna start real soon. My main man Jeb2 is headin up that endeavor, cause I'm too lazy for it. As for the mugz0rz, I'm sad to say that there probably won't be a prize for this contest. We'll see.
~diospadre

I'm sure that mugz0rz will be the new thing once reid produces them en masse :/. Oh and I think the Halloween Funfest will prolly begin...around Halloween? heheh.

Obsessions
I wanted to know, Poo...
1. Isn't Ryo Ohki that cabbit thing?
~Hobbes

:D
~diospadre

Yes it is. But dios still wants her. Better hope Harle doesn't find out.

Confusion
Did Earth Bound 2 come out yet it says in Earth Bound that is was sapose to be out now other wise it ws 2001.Alot of my friends say it did.
~Physcokids

Sorry to be the one to bear the bad news, but EarthBound64 has been canned. It hasn't come out, and unless our petition convinces Nintendo otherwise, it never will. And punch your friends for me too.
~diospadre

No, we have yet to see EarthBound 2 AKA EarthBound 64 AKA Mother 3 AKA EarthBound Dolphin AKA EarthBound-When good crows go bad

Linksmen and reid...
i love the site and it's too bad reidman left. *sniff* I have been a EB fan for a looooooong time and have never found a site as nice and devoted as yours. (i wondered what happend to earthbound.net). your links page doesnt have scores or you don't have sites of the months anymore. too bad.
~Fried Chicken

Yes, we will all miss reid but his general wackiness lives on. I'm sure he'll pop in every now and then, thoguh. After all, Tomato can only stay away from the site for a few weeks every time he quits.
~diospadre

EB.net is like, I dunno. You can always find out. Just type in www.earthbound.net (but you should be typing in www.starmen.net instead) And the links guy decided to change it. SO there.

Purists
Hacks are Evil! I know they are! I haven't looked into it completely, yet, but I'm sure it's illegal, or something! Do not conform! PK Hack is bad! I know It's bad! Do not conform! Be different, play the game in the normal manner! Yes, yes! That is how it should be done! Yes, Yes!
~Shivered McTimber

Hey, I love EarthBound too, but you gotta admit it'd be cool to play a game that really stars yourself and your friends! I think I'll start a hack with a team of me, Harle, Ryo-Ohki, and Misato fighting against the evil Umi who tries to destroy our love.
~diospadre

Yes I agree. PK Hack treads upon things mankind was not made to impose one. But still I was the voice on the first release!

:-O
First of all I would like to start off by saying that your site is awesome. I was just comparing all the characters from good games (Ness, Cloud Strife, Mario, ect.) and EarthBound came out dominant. Exept for Cloud that is. Cloud could beat Ness, don't you think? but Ness, Paula, Jeff, Poo are unbeatable. anyway my cousin and I made an EarthBound fan game. It's not on the comp., just use beany babys to represent each character and have little cards beside them all, and well if you have Dr
~Tim

Nah, Ness is way more powerful than Cloud. Once you even out the damage levels (Clous can NOT hit Ness for 9999 damage, no matter what anyone says,) theyre probably pretty even. But then strip Cloud of his Materia and Ness comes up on top any day. As for that game you were talking about, it freaked me out and I have to say I;m kinda glad your e-mail got cut off.

Music
My recent collection has been in case point of orchestrated pieces of music form Video games, alogn with Super Mario Bros, Zelda, Donkey Kong and such, I foudn Earthbound. Unfortunately, I can't seem to download it. Anyone out there have a copy (of any sort) of orchestrated earthbound muzak?
~O Collector

I have this orchestrated Onett piece I got off Napster a few months ago, it's pretty :Dish. I get all my music off of scour now, you should try that. If all else fails, stop by #earthbound and talk to someone like Aquas, the new SM.net radio man.
~diospadre

There is an orcastrated version of Onett's theme floating arouns somewhere. Where, I dunno.
