03/31/03 - HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Yes, that's right; today is Power Advantage's 2nd-year Anniversary! We've seen good times, somewhat less-than-good times... Heck, we've even had some barely-good-at-all times! Well, they've all been good times, even when I thought I'd go craze, or break down in tears over complete idiocy...
So, for the party... No sale. Yup, that's right. No sale, this time; something better, though, and it's starting very soon. I'm not going to give too many hints, though, since it'll ruin the great surprise. Notes for the day, however... Voon is missing, after Hoboman's ship literally fell in front of him, and Timespray is now an official AFFILIATE of Power Advantage. If things progress as quickly and as well as they have been, I could see Zodiac Brave joining it, in the not-so-distance future.
The Namek Group Quest is finally in a 'workable' stage, and we've seen one Quest finished... Enemies were far too strong, but they still did it. The new FAQ (version 1.25) is up, so check that out for all the new stuff. I'm hoping to open up Meat very soon, so keep an eye out for that. Quests that are left to do before new stats are made: Daron's, Chibi Goten's(pre-Cell; cannot risk death), Android 16's, and Karthias'. See Hoboman or myself regarding these, to get them done. Also, Brolli has switched characters, taking on the awesome powers of Android #20(a.k.a. Dr. Gero), so feel free to greet his new self.
Hmmm.... Not much else to report; I'll get to work on the new Earth DB Quest program as soon as I can, providing I have enough usable submissions on the forum post 'future made present', or whatever I called it. A new Email of the Day has been posted, too, in all its humour (Some people are funny, some just suck. Guess which I consider this.... well, I'll refrain from the open insults.) So, in any case, keep checking the site and forum, and keep sparring! Big stuff, happening soon!

03/24/03 - Huzzah, I got another post in, in less than a week! So, final stats and everything from the Saga has been finished, including all logs, stats, and Brolli's switch to Android 20(On Elite Androids page), and we have a whole truckload of people in Otherworld (Check the Locations page under Otherworld) who need reviving. If any have been revived with the Earth Dragonballs, they need the Namek ones to come back. If they haven't been revived by the Earth ones, or only by the Namek ones, then the Earth ones will suffice. The Namek Group Quest Formula is very near complete; just adjusting final boss stats so KI isn't too high, and ensuring the initial stats/moves influence it, enough. The form for this Quest has been put onto the Quests page, and applications can be made for it. Since Meat hasn't opened, yet (And I don't know when it will be, so please stop asking...), the Heightened trainings should all be negatives, even if you have them pre-ordered. A few notes, though: Senzus, as stated in Log 16 of the Saga, have been fixed, and every one has been recalled. Now, there are Demi-Senzus, that heal half of your max HP/KI, and the old, full Senzus. Neither of which can be used in more than once per battle, but you could use one, and then the other. However, the full ones are limited supply; there will only be so many, per month, and will probably come down to bidding, by the end. Base price is now 800 credits for it, and the bags have been removed for both them, and the Batteries. There are currently 10 full beans, so it's first-come, first serve, although you may only buy ONE PER DAY!!! So, no having one rich guy buy them all, and sell them at huge profits. Another note: There are currently four 'Ornaments' in play: Android17's Silvery-White Ornament, which 'Moves', Ramirez's Purple/Grey Ornament, who's exact properties are unknown, Podrin's Silvery-White-Metallic Ornament, who's exact properties are also unknown, and Galaxia's Metallic-Yellow Ornament, which 'Augments Health'. Ramirez is also stuck with an oddly 'salty' smell, as though he's been brined in a salt vat, and his skin is beginning to crust, somewhat. I can't guarantee these clues will help any of you figure it out, but they are beneficial, nonetheless, to unlocking the secrets of the Ornaments.
So, in summary... Saga stats are done, Brolli changed characters, people need reviving, Namek Group Quest almost done, old Quests that were sent in pre-Cell have been given to Hoboman, and the Ornaments are the next mental challenge. Wednesday or Thursday night, maybe 6'ish, maybe 8'ish, PST, I hope to have the 2-year party, since I start school, again, on Monday, the official date. I might even need to show you the Kaio/Kami trainings, soon, so keep an eye out on the Trainings page and the forums, for those. In the meantime, keep training, checking the site, and the forum.

03/18/03 - Well, it's been a long time since I've been in the news, but I'm back, and the Cell Saga has drawn to its end, ending the whole Android Saga. Over a dozen people dead, many of which requiring the Namek Dragonballs to be revived... If you participated in the Saga AT ALL, check the forums if you want stats. Other than that, Xellos and Kashini are now on Namek (Had to have them leave in the last log... just for imagery, but they should have been there a while back), Brolli's days as a Saiyan are numbered (You'll all know more when the 'big news' happens), and I'm dedicating tomorrow morning (Which I have no work on) to work on the Namek Group Quest program. I suspect a good four to six more hours of work should be enough to finish it up, and then I can work on the new Earth Quest program. Please post in thread regarding the quest program, on the forum! In other news, Kagemusha got... either 800 or 850 credits for getting both the 199,999 and 200,001 pictures for our Counter; I will probably be combining both the 2 year anniversary party and this party together sometime next week. Other than that, purchases are going through again, and Hoboman, who has proven to be more than able to quest people properly, will soon be moved up to an official 'Site Quester' status (He's done enough training to qualify, and has shown his capabilities more than once). So, I'll be making the quest stats (from the past... 3 months?) soon, and handing a few over to him to do. Don't pester him about it, though, please. So, keep checking the site and the forum! 2 years is just around the corner!!

03/01/03 - Hello everyone, sorry about me being gone for so long. Everything for the most part has chilled out (Mock trial ended, finally settled everything for the car accident, play is pretty much finished) I just went through and updated all sigs and moves. I have heard there was some problems with AIM chatrooms a week or so ago. If you send an e-mail in, stating it was for that week, I will allow it. Anyway, I'm off for now, let's see what happens with the cell games.
