Person 1. He is a loner, quiet. Has no friends, no hobbies or interests. No goals or dreams. Has a dead-end job. Socially awkward and aloof. What he does have is a significant other.

Person 2. Cheerful, friendly, good-looking. Has a circle of good friends, does sports and volunteers sometimes. Enjoys his job and is easy to talk to. He has spare time and plenty of dating prospects but you know he has had 0 romantic relationships during the last 10 years.

What adjectives would you use to describe them? What would you think of these two people? Is either one normal?

The question above.

There is an interesting combination emerging with the soon-to-be-released Galactic Overlord set. Special Summon Rocket Arrow Express. Tribute it for Great Maju Garzett with 10,000 ATK. Attack a monster with 2000 ATK or less for an OTK. Here's the question: according to Rocket Arrow's effect, you cannot conduct your Battle Phase on the turn it is Special Summoned. However, since it is tributed for Maju and hence removed from the field, the question is does Rocket Arrow's effect still apply, stopping you from attacking that turn? Thanks!

Here's the card: http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Roaring_Express_Train...

This deck is made for the purpose of removing important cards and overrunning the opponent with monarchs. Any ways to improve this thing? Also, I'm on a budget, so please do not just suggest expensive cards (such as 3 Caius instead of 3 Zaborg)

I know the deck is incomplete, it needs some more monsters. I'm considering adding 2 sets of Gadgets. Any suggestions? Thanks!

I havea few questions about the card Heat Wave? It seems pretty powerful (I have a Normal Monster Deck), but I'm wondering if there area few loopholes.

First, the card states "no Normal/Special Summoning Effect Monsters." Does that mean my opponent can still Set an Effect Monster? Or would that Set count as a type of Normal Summon?

Similarly, if I activated Heat Wave and my opponent already had a Ryko, could he Flip Summon it? My guess is no. Thanks for the help!

So, I am confused about some rules regarding the continuous trap card Beast Rising.

Scenario 1: If Beast Rising has already been activated in some previous turn, and now my opponent tries to destroy one beast-type on my field (either a Trap during my turn or a Spell during his turn), could I activate Beast Rising in response (even though it's already face-up) to transfer the targeted monster's ATK points to another one of my beasties before the target is destroyed?

Scenario 2: Let's just say I have a Vorse Raider and a Gladiator Beast Andal face-up. If my opponent attacks Vorse Raider, could I activate Beast Rising (also already face-up) in the damage step to salvage Vorse Raider's ATK points before it's destroyed but after damage calculation? I'm pretty sure that I can't.

I'm running a Beatdown Skill Drain deck, which is working pretty well against most current decks. However, there is one aspect I'd like to address: those special and syncro summons every deck is so fond of.

What are some good Spell and Trap cards I could use to render large monsters useless (either negated, destroyed, remove, or unable to attack)? Skill Drain is not always enough.

The cards I've come up with so far are: Royal Oppression, Grave of the Super Ancient Organism, and Summon Limit. Are there any more? I'm leaning more towards Continuous cards, as I already know of the most common staples like bottomless trap hole and solemn warning. Any good ones? Thanks.

Is it just my imagination, or have the prices for the Crossroads of Chaos set dropped recently (the average price seems to be about $40 a box)? If so, why?

I've heard that Pokemon Black and White have opposite worlds, that one is rural while the other is highly technologically advanced. I think the technology world sounds much cooler. Which version is it?!

Thanks!

I know I'm a dinosaur, but I wanted to create a Skill Drain Deck. This is what it looks like:

Normal Monsters: 7

X2 Insect Knight

X2 Vorse Raider

X1 Gemini Elf

X1 Mad Dog of Darkness

X1 Archfiend Soldier

Effect Monsters: 12

X2 Indomitable Fighter Lei Lei

X2 Goblin Attack Force

X2 Newdoria

X2 Skilled Dark Magician

X2 Fusilier Dragon, The Dual Mode Beast

X2 Beast King Barbaros

Traps: 17

X2 Skill Drain

X1 Royal Oppression

X2 Fake Trap

X2 Compulsory Evacuation Device

X2 Justi-Break

X1 Rising Energy

X1 Mirror Force

X1 Magic Cylinder

X1 Ultimate Offering

X1 Michizure

X1 Metal Reflect Slime

X1 Black Horn of Heaven

Spells: 4

X1 Smashing Ground

X1 Axe of Despair

X1 Dark Hole

X1 Hammer Shot

Total: 40 (Monsters 19, Traps 17, Spells 4)

What needs to added/removed? I'm thinking I might need more Trap support with cards like A Cat of Ill Omen, Mask of Darkness, Imperial Custom, or Dark Bribe.

What do you think? Thanks!

I don't have a lot of good Burn/Stall staple cards like Level Limit Area B, Marshmallon, Spirit Reaper, Stealth Bird, or Dark Door. But other card suggestions besides those are great.

I'm very curious as to how one could cheat a pedometer and have extra steps counted for free. The only method I can think of so far is to put the pedometer on a dog. Any better ways out there?

Does the camera move around by itself while all the player does is point and shoot? Or does the nunchuck control swiveling/turning around?

Ok, I have a rating of about 8300 VS points online. However, I am always stuck in rooms with people mostly around the 4500-6000 range. How can I play someone else around my skill level?

I submitted a cool custom stage to Nintendo. How do I know if my stage is selected? Am I notified?

Ok, in SSBB, I can connect to Nintendo WFC with no problems. But when i try to do Basic Brawl or Team Battle, I get a connection error! (specifically Error Code 85010). Wtf? Anyone know how to fix that?

In my Leaf Green game, I've been pampering my Eevee and it still doesn't seem to be evolving into Espeon or Umbreon. Can it evolve? Can Pokemon evolve by Friendship in FR/LG?
