Let's get things started then, shall we? I'll probably end up doing about five to ten a day unless I get extremely motivated to swiftly finish the list. Also, don't expect an update Friday since I'll be working the entire day.
100. Song: Piece of the Pi Artist: Jordan Rudess Link: Nominated by MycroProcessor - This just gets progressively worse and worse and worse the more times I listen to it.
99. Song: Mr. L's Theme Game: Super Paper Mario Link: Nominated by TheCodeIsBosco - There is nothing remotely good about this song. Well, except that the last minute-and-a-half of the link was just dead silence.
98. Song: Separation Anxiety Genesis Theme Game: Spider-Man & Venom Separation Anxiety Link: Nominated by 20three - Augh. And I thought my nostalgic game tunes turn some people off. Or maybe you're just throwing in a bad song for some reason. This was terrible to listen to. I'm sorry if you enjoy it or it was part of your childhood, but it would've caused me to turn off the game immediately hearing this at the beginning. Yet... still better than SNES theme after listening to that. So much better.
97. Song: N's Castle Game: Pokemon Black/White Link: Nominated by todbot1 - What was this? Why? Why would someone do this?
96. Song: Maximum Shake Special Remix (With Title Call) Game: The King of Fighters Maximum Impact Regulation A Link: Nominated by NioraptH - Gaaaaah.

You are very demanding in a relationship, whether a romantic or platonic one. And yet there is an unperceived irony in that while you demand much from a partner, you are always somewhat reserved yourself. There is an unconscious desire to insure that your partner is more emotionally committed than you are, and this holds true for every relationship you have ever had. You may only be partially conscious of the lack of true emotional depth that you can bring to bear in a relationship. But now you know.
Feelings of insecurity, both physical and mental, are creating stress and anxiety at this point in time. A desire to experience the fullness of life is being met with frustration. You are searching for both fulfillment and sympathetic friendship, and unfortunately finding neither. There is a desire for intimate connection to the outside world and a fear that this may be impossible.
Extremely true

Even with everyone telling me point blank what was happening after Episode 6, it still didn't register until Wright wanted to talk to them both and Shannon nearly went BSOD.
It's definitely not a speculation I'd ever, EVER, adhere to without the Chiru episodes. It's just plain silly. Even if it actually works out completely looking back knowing what we know now. But still, so silly.
Even if it's hinted at quite a lot of times, just hints that aren't apparent until you can even wrap your head around something as crazy as that happening.. This always gets me in retrospect:
It wasn't that Virgilia literally opened her eyes that was scary. It was the moment. It was her persona til then, the story til then, and the slow realization of just what was happening that pretty much clicked in right when or not long before she did a Virgiliaface and you wanted to just reach in pull Battler back from what he was getting into.
It was pure, "The killer's in there! Don't go in there! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! YOU FOOL!"
EDIT: Kinzoface though... yeah, that's almost purely cosmetic. But, his eyes are just popping out of his skull.... *shudder*

From: _Regaro_ | #003 Ep 7 Tea Party. Ridicule. That is all.
Oh god... it took me a few moments to realize what you were talking about, but my stomach just fell remembering it. The intensity of that scene.
Oh man, and what about the first tea party? The kids are just so happy to be alive and joking around with Beatrice when Battler comes to his senses and everyone just... dissolves. *shudder*

What are the moments and scenes that sent chills down your spine, completely shocked you, and leave lasting impressions?
*Episode 3 Spoilers*
This topic sponsored by Virgilia opening her eyes for the first time and seeing that Battler was about to fall off a cliff a few clicks before he did. "Wait, hold on. It's too happy here. Was this a victory? Really? Wait, they want you to sign- BATTLER! NO! IT'S A TRICK! STOP! WHAT ARE YOU OH GOD VIRGILIA AND BEATOFACE WTFFFFF-"

2. Best Looking? - Chloe from Uncharted is an incredible choice that I'm partial to, but I'm going to go a bit crazy and say Princess Garnet til Alexandros. Probably my favorite looking Final Fantasy character. And for male? Vyse. Best use of random belts ever.
3. Played with Parents? - Mario Parties, Super Mario Bros, Super Mario Galaxy, Animal Crossing.
4. Favorite Minor Character? - Too many to think of! Anju & Kafei. Saxton Hale. Johnny Sasaki. Taithleach. Ooh, Taithleach from Gladius. I'll go with his undead summoning bones.
5. Favorite RPG Battle System? - Earthbound comes to mind first because Rolling HP Meters is the best unused mechanic ever.
6. Favorite Comic Relief Villain? - Absolutely no one of note comes to mind. I mean, there's De Loco, New Age Retro Hippie, and Bob the Goldfish, but I definitely don't choose any of them. No idea right now.
7. Favorite Game Collecting Dust? - Pretty much all of them. Skies of Arcadia is at the top of my list right now because I love that game, I just don't have the patience to play it through again. Earthbound, Secret of Evermore, and Illusion of Gaia all would have gotten some enjoyment this year if I had a working SNES controller. It's been two months since I last played League of Legends. And there are times when I am dearly, dearly missing Everquest and Atlantica Online.

“So we’ve cornered Andy and Kyle in the Swarts stairwell and then this guy comes out of NO WHERE like ****ing Batman or something.” ; ExTha is the man
A few days ago, after realizing I have a ton of Heart-to-Hearts unavailable and exploring landmarks nets me a ton of Skill Points that don't get passed to new party members, I decided to look up how soon my next party member would come. I did get spoiled on my seventh, but I knew it would be okay to:
1) Bum rush to where I get my next one because it's at least two or three zones after where I was. 2) Learn that the timed quests of a certain place wouldn't cut off before I got my new party member
It still took me ten hours to get the character, but if I had been exploring, there's no doubt it would have taken thirty hours longer.

I didn't expect to see Russell this year, at leas tuntil the finale.
So why did someone put on some A&E renovation show with Russell Hantz working on his house >___________<
EDIT: Oh god, oh it's even worse than that. He's not just guest-starring on some house-flipping show. He's hosting it. He'll be doing this in more episodes.
