Board 8 > Monthly Multiplayer Asynchronous Randomizers

(+) Yeah! (+)

Sure, thx.

Ok, got about a week until this month's game. Anybody who wants to send me a yaml can do so. Here, DM, discord, however you want to do it.@Chrono007 in particular.

I'm still deciding what I'm gonna play this month, probably either Pokemon or SA2, but I'll settle on it in the next couple days.

Bumping the topic ahead of this Saturday's async! So far my brother and I are the only ones who have sent yamls

Thusday bump as well, next async is Saturday, Sept 21st

Here's the room for this month's game. Have fun, everybody.

Also @Chrono007 in particular.

I'm just waiting for speed booster to be able to finish... doesn't look like anyone is waiting on stuff from me?

No one has hinted an item that's in your game yet, at any rate. I know no one is waiting on me because I've gotten everything I possibly can in my two MMX games lol. I'm just waiting on access to the last few levels.

YGO was a mistake, sorry

Just summon a Blue-Eyes White Dragon and steamroll everyone! (I have never played YGO in my life and don't know what the video game is even like)

I'd suggest Exodia, but I've heard that nobody's ever been able to summon him.

It's kinda funny because, despite how iconic it is and how many cards have been made to support it, Blue-Eyes White Dragon has very rarely been a good card

It's really just that one time in 2016 that Konami printed some very good supporting cards that pushed it to win the World Championships that year

I did hint this, this morning:
[Hint]: Reg's S.S. Ticket is at Power Bomb (Crateria surface) in Chrono007's World. (not found)

I keep telling myself at some point I'll play Super Metroid and learn it, but I haven't. Is this just blocked behind your Speed Booster that you were talking about earlier?

Done.

i can get most checks... but I gave myself random goals, and 3 of them required speed booster to complete haha.

1. All items in green brin.
2. All items in w marid.
3. Visit the animals

Chrono007 posted...

Visit the animals

Out of curiosity, does this mean at the end of the game or in their original spots?

It's the two groups in green/pink brinstar. The ones that teach you how to wall jump (etecoons), and the one that teaches you how to shinespark (dachora).

So it is the original spots then and not where you can meet them at the end of the game while escaping the planet. That's a neat goal for the rando to have.

Okay I managed to beat it without speed booster... used Draygon to get a blue suit that just let me walk through speed booster blocks haha. Haven't done that before :P.

hah, that's one way to do it! GG

We had a few days in the middle of last week where things felt like they might've stalled out a bit, but we're definitely past that and we're getting towards the end of things for this month now. Not quite done yet, though.

Down to just the Fire Emblem game left, and it's in the endgame, so here's the spoiler log for this month for anybody curious

https://archipelago.gg/dl_spoiler/LIOCbsBeSP2F7m41TLtR5g

October's will probably start on the 26th, mostly because I'm not available on the 19th. If people really want the 19th and somebody wants to step up and generate, I can help them figure it out. Could also possibly do the 20th instead, but at least one person has already expressed an interest in the 26th over the 19th/20th.

Next month I'll probably do MMX 1, 2, and 3. I grew up on the first two but only played 3 recently so I'm not as good at it lol. Will be interesting to see what feats an async rando forces me to do in it. Really hope I get one of the easier dudes first. Crush Crawfish is a joke but Neon Tiger kicked my ass forever.

Anyway, thanks again for participating, everyone, and thanks to Reg for hosting.

Bump to keep topic alive

Another bump

Ok, so, we're targeting the 26th for this month's game.

Send yamls to me as usual. Posting them here (Pastebinning them is probably your best bet, but I can take ones posted directly like Chrono's last month), in the discord server channel, or just DM me if that's what you want.

Still got about two days for yamls, gonna roll early Saturday afternoon as usual

Yuzu - Super Metroid
Reg - Yugioh 06
Roba - Megaman X/2/3

That's the lineup so far.

I'm not gonna be on at all D1, so I think I'm setting my progression pretty low

AriaOfBolo posted...

I typically run 0 regardless, lol. It spaces things out more and keeps me from finishing too soon.

Anyways, got right around a day left, maybe a tad less. Gonna roll some time in the early afternoon tomorrow as usual.

I'll get my... Whatever I want to play in before I sleep tonight

Last bump/notice.

Gonna roll in probably 6-7 hours. Might be slightly later. Definitely won't be sooner.

Yuzu - Super Metroid
Reg - Yugioh 06
Roba - Mega Man X/2/3
Koala - Super Mario World
MSG - Pokemon Crystal
Wicklebee - A Short Hike
Mewtwo - Chrono Trigger Jets of Time
Razenclaf - Dome Keeper, Mega Man X3
MSG - A Link to the Past
Lolo - Astalon

I'd throw in a second game myself but I finally bought Metaphor so that's gonna be taking a lot of my gaming attention that isn't used to keep up here.

Here's the room for October's game. Good luck, have fun, and all that jazz everybody.

Bump to keep topic alive

This month's game is pretty much wrapped. The spoiler log is available at https://archipelago.gg/dl_spoiler/3l2v__vjQ9Ce7BON3gDaVQ for anybody interested.

It's a bit of a quick turnaround, but I'm thinking the 16th may be on the table this month to provide plenty of time before the US Thanksgiving week. Alternatively, the idea of the 30th as a combined November/Decmeber game (And then the one after that in January) might be pretty good, on account of the holiday season.

Another bump.

Unless people show up today/tomorrow really wanting the 16th over the 30th, I'm currently feeling inclined to go with a combined November/December async starting on the 30th

On account of the US Thanksgiving holiday I'll basically start accepting yamls whenever though.

Bump

Got a bit over a week and a half until the 30th. If you want to start sending yamls now so that you don't forget over the US Thanksgiving week, go ahead. I'll accept them.

Bumping topic, next async is on the 30th still

Last call for yamls, I'll be rolling early tomorrow afternoon, as usual.

1) Reg - Sonic Adventure 2
2) Yuzu - Super Metroid
3) MSG - Paper Mario
4) Roba - Mega Man X1/2/3, Hollow Knight
5) Razen - Mega Man X3, Dome Keeper
6) Koala - Mega Man 2

Got a lot of yamls in after yesterday's call for them (And a couple that got omitted from that list, but are in the game)

Room is at https://archipelago.gg/room/S9YNffBcSg61IFvwKISEvQ for anybody playing. Have fun.

Up.

We kinda really tore through this one pretty quick.

The spoiler log is at https://archipelago.gg/dl_spoiler/igNVMDHyRyqbO3pl1XC2Mg for anybody interested.

Next one is probably January 11, but open to input on that.

Bump topic again

Up

Still targeting January 11 for next month's

Merry Christmas and whatever other holidays people celebrate this time of year.

Bump to keep topic alive, Happy New Year

Up.

Still taking yamls to roll on Saturday. Here's what we've got so far:

Mewtwo - Golden Sun
Wicklebee - A Hat In Time, A Short Hike
JeffRaze - Ocarina of Time
MSG - Diddy Kong Racing, Paper Mario, Super Mario 64
Reg - Super Mario 64, Pokemon Crystal
