  1. Whoa. Haven't been here in a while. Look at those 457 notifications.

      Well... Have fun with that! ^_^;

      Twi thinks they are all status updates, so after a quick skim, she kinda..Gave up. .3.;

  2. I don't find ponies cute, and I don't find them as humans cute, either. So... *Shrugs* Easy decision.
  3. I really hope they bring the option back. I agree with you, too. Swapnote is one of the best features on the 3DS/2DS, and it's such a downer that they'd do that (without warning, too). There are probably a bunch of people who have raged to Nintendo, but..I dunno.. I mean, Nintendo cares about their customers and fans, so maybe they'll realize how truly liked Swapnote (with Spotpass) was, and will bring it back? Or, they may not, so they don't gain any possible bad reputation from parents.. Bleh. Twas those kids' faults for passing out their codes randomly, anyways.
  4. I think I'm addicted to honey now. ._. It tastes too good.

  5. Oohhhhh! Those are super cool! I wish I got to carve pumpkins this year, but they ended up being really expensive in my area, and we couldn't afford them. You must be a good carver, 'cause these look awesome. Great job.
  6. So, I'm not sure how many of you know this, or even use the program..But Swapnote (known in other regions as Nintendo Letterbox) is a letter-type messaging program on the 3DS. You can use it to draw and write letters to people on your friends list and send pictures/recordings (since about April of this year, I think). It'd use the Spotpass/Internet option for sending (for instance to your friends overseas, or even friends here. Just over the internet, which allowed single friend messaging), and Streetpass ( which allows you to send a note to any of the people on your friends list that you happen to pass by). I found it highly enjoyable to use ('specially when I got my berrrfrend to use it). I could send silly pictures and comics to my friends. I made some letters in the morning yesterday, and quite a few hours later (after I got back from taking a bunch of kids trick or treating (it was awful, to say the least, and I just wanted to check for notes)) I went to see. I open the program, and it says something like "Swapnote has been discontinued for this program, blah blah blah". I was confused, and tried the Spotpass check. Didn't work, as the same message popped up. I phoned a buddy, who had the same thing happen, so I decided to look it up. " Notice about service for Nintendo 3DS software Swapnote2013-10-31 Thank you for your support. Nintendo has learned that some consumers, including minors, have been exchanging their friend codes on Internet bulletin boards and then using Swapnote (known as Nintendo Letter Box in other regions) to exchange offensive material. Nintendo has been investigating ways of preventing this and determined it is best to stop the SpotPass feature of Swapnote because it allows direct exchange of photos and was actively misused. Nintendo always wants to provide a positive experience for all consumers and limit the risk of any inappropriate activity or misuse of a service. We feel it is important on this occasion to take this action. We are very sorry for any inconvenience to the many consumers who have been using this service responsibly; however this decision was made considering the point that many minors also use this feature of Swapnote. Thank you for your understanding. Nintendo will continue to work to ensure more consumers are aware of our Parental Control features, which allow parents to manage their children’s experience on our systems. For more information, please click here. Service stop date: Thursday, Oct. 31, 2013, 7 p.m. PT Service being stopped: Nintendo 3DS software Swapnote – Sending and receiving notes using SpotPass Affected regions: All regions where the service was offered Special Notes services are also stopped" So, Nintendo just got rid of the software without ANY prior warning, because of people sending bad things to each other. I know that this is bad, and could possibly hurt Nintendo's reputation with parents a little.. But what about the people who responsibly used it? What about the people who actually used it for a form of communication? I read on a bulletin board that someone's sister moved to Japan, and they highly relied on it to talk to each other. It should of been expected that people would do this stuff, because people are people. I just find it unfair and uncalled for, and I think they should of taken a different approach/action on the situation. Maybe send an update with parental controls? Or maybe the parents could watch what there child does more or something? I don't know. I'm not blaming the parents, or anyone really, but I'm just an eensy bit annoyed. http://www.nintendo.com/whatsnew/detail/UHQZFP2Jxcll_Vm-PsZpxNIK5920bRRK;jsessionid=5846E57D48B7161F164109D07DBFC7C8

  10. I used to believe that if your fingernails got too long, the back end would swirl up in your skin, and rip through it. .___. So, kinda got a bad nail biting habit from it.. (Blame my grandmother. ._. ) Um... I can't really think of anything else.
  11. Gonna send out Twilight Sparkle very quickly. So excited.

      What do you mean by that

  12. My hair is very long, and gets VERY knotty VERY easily (even if in a ponytail, or braided). If I don't brush it one to two times a day, it'd be horrid. I'm not really a fancy going for person, but I do it so my scalp doesn't scream at me later.
  13. I'm on and off ticklish. But, when I am, the area right under my tummy, and my neck are the most ticklish. I'm sometimes ticklish everywhere, and my feet tend to be, but I refuse to let others touch them. .-. My pal tickles my neck a lot, though. I dislike it.
  14. Aluminium is a big one I tend to mess up. A lot. I've done it less over the past while, but haven't a clue why it doesn't work. I can say it in my head. <.<; It gets rather butchered "Alumina.. Aluminiua.....Alum....FACK." Also, melancholy is another tricky one. I dunno why. I normally end up saying "melonchony". .____.
  15. I like Fluttershy's party hat. It's a pretty green.

  16. I sing a bit better when down, but my throat gets sore, opposed to no soreness when not.. Whut?

  17. Anybody got any hugs to spare? ;^;

      Im tired of eating eggs for breakfast I wish I had oatmeal right now...

  19. I LOVE Brentalfloss, and have for years. He's awesome. So is Andrew Dobson, the illustrator of the comics. .u.
  20. Okay, I didn't play it, but I watched a play through of it. (Two at least, I think..) Clock Tower for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It wasn't released outside of Japan, but folks have made a English translation of a rom for it. It's...I dunno why...But it..I dunno. I had a really bad experience with it. Just saying that..
  21. I've never actually been to a concert before. Even if I had the chance, I'd have mixed thoughts on going, as most seem to be good and bad..Eh..
  22. Finished my Twilight plushie this weekend, and the person it's for really likes it. Huzzah!
