Chrono Trigger I never got around to playing, somehow... Despite having played FF games from its time.
Fighters Megamix -- I don't really like 3d fighting games that much, but exploring one casually in the context of this event sounds pretty fun. Would love to see something like a Samurai Shodown game show up in a future poll -- those games in particular don't demand execution, so I think they're pretty nice for something like CGA.
Kaeru no tame ni Kane wa Naru sounds cute; I like its premise!
Scroll Lock-On I voted for just because it's where Ikaruga lives.

The player base is primarily fighting game players (is there interest here for retro fighters?), but it also has multiplayer shmups, beat em ups, and puzzle games. Simpsons, Raiden, etc.

73wpm, 92% accuracy (made a typo near the end and autocorrect doomed me, lol). I also feel very annoyed anytime I type on the phone, for basically the same reasons. Autocorrect is nice because most of the time it does help, but it's so much more noticeable and infuriating when it gets in your way... Even if you know that most of the time it's helping, not hindering (it helped me out with typos a good few times as I wrote this very reply).

Kirisame LinkI type in English fairly quickly, testing around 140-150WPM on monkeytype. Nowhere near competitive speeds, but I know few people IRL who break 100WPM, so I feel alright about it, haha.I type in English fairly quickly, testing around 140-150WPM on monkeytype.

Comment on New policy changes for Southwest Airlines in ~transport
Kirisame LinkPersonally... I don't take issue with the removal of "free checked bags" as you could also just look at the existing policy as "everyone pays for two checked bags, whether or not they use them."...Personally... I don't take issue with the removal of "free checked bags" as you could also just look at the existing policy as "everyone pays for two checked bags, whether or not they use them." In an ideal world, ticket prices would go down further to reflect this, now that they won't be included.
I won't hold my breath for that, though.

But with the new focus on crafting and renewable resources, I wonder whether that kind of thing is more or less necessary.

It was pretty true back then; I'm just saying that there's a good portion of people who chanted "PS4 has no games", chant "PS5 has no games", and will chant "PS6 has no games" just because it's culture. Reality doesn't have to factor into it.

Kirisame LinkIt's just culture. Ever since the days of "the PS3 has no games," that phrase has followed the consoles generation after generation. Doesn't matter whether it's true or why.It's just culture. Ever since the days of "the PS3 has no games," that phrase has followed the consoles generation after generation.

Oh well. I'd rather they headbump releases than for UNI2 to delay; I want this game in my hands!

And even in the absence of such, there's still the endless treadmill of improvement in speedrunning that plenty others turn to. Plenty to learn/adapt, as you remind me.
Maybe I'm conflating a little (or a lot) my enjoyment of adapting to an opponent, with simply enjoyment of playing with company, hehe.
I enjoy both my fw13 and new fw16, and would echo most of the positive sentiment others have already posted. I do have a complaint, though... It's been years and a Japanese layout keyboard still has not been produced for the fw16. Basically unusable for me without an external keyboard, which is... annoying, to say the least.
