@Tnd; Yeah, but this kind of thing lead to the fact of "If you have a 3.7 GPA (out of 4.0), then you are in the lower half the class" . My class size is about 550; that means there's about 550 people in my age group at school.

That's funny. A 3.5 is about average at my school.

My grade has a total of about 45 kids in it.

We also call teachers by their first name.

We didn't get letter grades until 7th grade.

It's so freakin' awesome. It was founded by two Holocaust survivors who wanted to make a tolerant, safe community to learn in. Of course, nowhere's perfect, but it's still freakin' amazing.

You school uses the honors ranking system too?


Also, Happy B-day Puppet!

When can I move?

This is the song Nameless wants to play.

I challenge you to watch/listen to it with giggling. It's so ridiculous.

Death metal + bagpipes = lulz

[Wreckingrocc]

Not really. All my classes are basically automatically honors classes, no exceptions. It's not so much harder as it is easier and faster. With smaller class size, you can ask more questions, move through the material faster, and, best of all, not have to wait behind for the slower kids.

The sad thing, though, is that some schools have honors classes get an automatic +1 GPA, so a 5.0 GPA is possible, and a 4.5 is very easy to obtain. It doesn't really matter, though, since I get two bonus college credits just for going to the school through high school.

As I said, private school. That means different rules and such.

Happy birthday, Puppetmaster.
Also, I have a mini hurdy-gurdy. It isn't that bad, it's basically a sort of wheel with little spikes all over it in certain locations. Each spike pricks a certain note at the right time. And I wouldn't compare it to a violin, more like a guitar.

Which is what I said.

I'm guessing Inis Mona, by Eluveitie.

No, that sounds more like a music box. Yours can only play one tune, right?

And Happy Birthday Puppetmaster.

[Fay Graydon]

Hey Keris i bet you just got all that stuff off of Wiki
I mean how can someone know that much random stuff?

on another note, i just went on Youtube and clicked the first link for the search term: "Inis Mona, by Eluveitie".... (need i say more)

When can I move?

I'd gladly swap at any time (is freeeeezing )

EDIT: WOW I was Super Ningaed....

EDITEDIT: I recon we should all get together and have an ABR cosplay/masquerade

[Emperor Ing]

Isn't that what we do when there isn't an event week?

[Fay Graydon]

I meant in real life

[Lyinginbedmon]

I'd need a much better beard and lots of chalk dust for that, I think.

If I ever get to a con with Remember I'm kinda planning on cosplaying as Igon, mostly for the publicity and the not-needing-to-remove-my-ponytail.

[Ninja Chocobo]

Yeah? Well I'd need to metamorphose into a chocobo.

You've clearly never been to an anime convention

[memnarch]

I'd think I could make me a costume, but I'd still have to somehow shrink a size category or two.

[Ninja Chocobo]

*abject confusion*
By the way, I have, actually. I still don't know how that's possible.

[Fay Graydon]

I've started my Backstory comic by the way
(not link you need a link or anything tho)

[_Puppetmaster_]

I'd think I could make me a costume, but I'd still have to somehow shrink a size category or two.

And I'd have to grow by one...

[Green-Shirt Q]

I'm kinda bored. Should I make a comic showing the gang (consisting of Baby Q, Oliver, the Detta and Keveak) going to Dettaburger or are we not doing that?

Go right ahead, I'm too busy with show stuff this week to make a comic.

[Mad Mask]

Rather than going to Detta Burger, why don't we just... you know... maybe... advance the plot ? It's been a long while since anybody made a comic about the main plot.

That's a pretty good idea, but I don't really know how I could do that with FFF. Q's not important enough, and whenever I try everybody says I'm "plot-rushing".

Making comic.

[chriky]

I thought about what fayt and Kev said about using my old avatar, but making it more awsome (if that's possible) and I came up with this.

Do NOT Insult this band, they're one of the bands that are leading the folk metal seen in Europe.
Mixing culture with modern culture is probably the best thing that can happen to music.

@Threeshades: The Hurdy Gurdy part is easy to physicaly play on guitar, but hard to memorise, I'll learn the guitar too.

once you got it at a resaonable pace it should come naturally.

Nameless, that doesn't change the fact that it sounds ridiculously silly.

[Nameless]

Nameless, that doesn't change the fact that it sounds ridiculously silly.

Music is all about opinion Mechafox, to you it sounds silly, to me and many others it doesn't.
And these guys took that risk when them along with several other bands and ended up creating a whole new type of metal which has was never even thought about.
It also encouraged many musicians who play these instruments to actually get out there and do something with it, people that before would've only been able to busk in the streets with these instruments because of their unpopularity. And for that you have to respect them.
If you think it sounds silly, that's fine, but it's just an opinion and it doesn't mean that it is silly.

All they're really doing is modernising Ancient Pagan/folk music with metal.
Both Genre's are amazing, and together they're even better.
There's nothing silly about that.

it sounds ridiculously awesome!

HI5!

I am SO learning the Tin Wistle.

[Fawkes]

I'm not sure creating a "new type of metal" is really a great accomplishment. I mean, anyone can create a new genre of metal.

Here. Raspy metal voice + kazoos. Kazoo metal. I just invented that. I'm a musical visionary.

Don't get me wrong, the song is catchy. It's just that voice... that stock metal voice singing over the bagpipes... it makes me laugh. It's so out of place.
