    Amen!  C'mon Jed, could you post something with a "tad" (total
understatement) more intelligence instead of the first thing that pops into
that brain of yours?  The fourth dimension, time, (if that really is the
fourth dimension) is not used in that context of what you are saying..i
think.  Nowadays, who knows what you're saying.  I think the time part delves
into a deeper context and meaning, not necessarily time as just minutes and
seconds.

Subject: [N64] PD Custom Scenario: Slayer Be Slayed

Hey there all.  Just thought I'd drop you guys a line with something
that my friends and I have been trying out.  It takes advantage of one
of my favourite weapons.  Up to 4 players but no sims.  In Multiplayer,
set all of the weapons to Slayer except for 5 or 6 which is a Shield.
Set the arena to the Warehouse or the Fortress.  Why you ask, no doors
in these levels but they are big with lots of nooks and cranies.  The
Rules: Everyone must pick one place and not just a room.  It should be a
corner or a particular place in a room, though each player can be in any
room in the level.  Everybody only uses the "Fly-By-Wire" Rocket
option.  The main rule, you can only kill other people if you fire from
your place.  You can, however, fire rockets to take out other rockets
from other places or leave the place to get more ammo.  You then often
find yourself detonating your rocket before it gets to anyone just so
you can jump out of the way of another rocket.  Also, anywhere is a game
place to hide.  My friends and I can now even maneuver the Slayer
rockets through the air vents.  The battles with this can get very
intense and fun.  Enjoy all.

Rob

HA!  Someone agrees with me.  Jed posts so much useless and thoughtless stuff to
this list...I don't even bother responding anymore.  Welcome to Jed's universe,
where all games already use 4-D and Final Fantasy 9 is out.

I bought my pokΘmon game in october 99 with my GBC and pokΘmon red is the
only game I have but i wanted street fighter alpha but i heard it sucks. i
have more on my team, here is a cool trick you can do, but you need stadium:
1.upload valuable pokΘmon to the stadium game
2.restart your pokΘmon game and choose a diffrent pokΘmon
3.upload that new pokΘmon but make sure you have caught another pokΘmon
4.do step #2 and 3 again
5.choose the same pokΘmon that you took when you first started your game so
your pokΘdex will be full
5.step #2 and 3 again
6.upload all those pokies back into your Gameboy cartridge and plus, the
pokemon experiecne will grow faster
oh, and how full is your pokΘdex, you must have 151, I have about 90

    Just get a PSX and continue playing their great games.  Just got Vagrant
Story and it is very cool.
    Being a Nintendo or any gaming platform "loyalist" only hurts you.  Think

It's official. Jed is the stupidest person ever.

To be 4-D, time would actually have the affect gameplay. Zelda:OoT is kinda
4D, as will be Zelda: MM. Pokemon Gold and Silver will be 4-D, because they
actually have certain days of the week and hours of the day affecting
gameplay. But in Mario 64, playing Bob-omb Battlefield at 12 AM is no
different from playing at 12 PM.

What about stories of Sims going crazy?
Own team and opposing, do they sometimes do what ever they want?
What about blowing themselves up (apart from the Kamikaze sim?)
Also do your team of sims actually cover you or just hide etc..?

The original reports of the sims are mostly misleading.  The sims, if they
are opposing you, will do whatever they have to do to kill you.  How good
they are depends on their difficulty setting.  Even the "Special Sims" can
be set harder or easerier.  If they are easier, they might be do stupid
things like blowing themselves up along with you.  Though generally the
harder sims (ie. PerfectSim & DarkSim) are really good and very rarely do
blow themselves up along with you.  Kamikaze Sim is called KazeSim in the
game.  The name is misleading, though.  He will do whatever it takes to
kill the opposition.  He won't blow himself up for no good reason.  Now,
with teams of sims you basically control the sims.  You can call up a list
of commands for each sim (which includes: Protect, Attack, Follow, etc.
and also commands specific to certain scenarios).  In my experience, they
generally do what they are told.  Rare did a really good job with the sims
in Perfect Dark.
