random number generators suck :(

It is here go look and see the first set.

Stevie Hunt
11-02-2006, 01:11 PM
nice set bro, one question though, what is that last trick i couldnt quite see it

dodge
11-02-2006, 01:16 PM
its a finger flip

Necromortis
11-02-2006, 01:22 PM
The crossfooted cooperflip to tailstop - was that just a 3/4ths flip? Or was it a reinteges flip?

~Necro

Fozzz
11-02-2006, 01:27 PM
Nice set man. :)

Apart from the tailstop. Tailstops in combos are the work of the devil!

dodge
11-02-2006, 01:33 PM
Its one and 3/4ters flips and then i must be the devil.

Necromortis
11-02-2006, 02:03 PM
Does it flip like an impossible thing (reinteges flip?) or as just a regular railflip? Is it varial? I couldn't see it very well.

~Necro

dodge
11-02-2006, 02:06 PM
no its not varail you spin it like 90 degress to land in tail stop.

Izzy
11-02-2006, 02:07 PM
I'll watch when I get home. The BoE internet doesn't allow youtube so I have to wait.:(

aronsamma
11-02-2006, 02:09 PM
a 1.75? really? It looked like it flipped forward 3/4, and I was uploading my match right now... :( So, does it flip backwards like a normal cooperflip or what?

dodge
11-02-2006, 02:16 PM
Well it does flip forward but only about backwards would be werid.

aronsamma
11-02-2006, 02:19 PM
Huh? That didn't make any sense. So, it doesn't flip like a regular railflip (backwards), it flips like a reintges flip, but with 1.75 flips, and no varial? I would've sworn it was only 3/4

dodge
11-02-2006, 02:24 PM
well it doesnt matter as what you did was right. nicely done as well.

aronsamma
11-02-2006, 02:25 PM
thanks. good set, it was fun.

dodge
11-02-2006, 02:28 PM
Rail is really fun to do im looking forward to other peoples sets it will be good.

Necromortis
11-02-2006, 04:03 PM
Right, crossfooted reinteges flip to tailstop. I'll try and get it when I get home...

~Necro

~Necro

Letters around for some people. Check my signature for updates.

I just realized it's my turn to set and I have until tomorrow. God damnit, I really don't want to miss my set - but you guys are going to have to wait until tomorrow for it. I've got a half day tomorrow though, so it should be all good.

It's a coco wheelie to nose wheelie to FS Shove-It out.

~Necro

dodge
11-10-2006, 01:37 AM
ok im am not going to be able to do that what i can do small cocs but not int a nose manule ooooo. nice set though.

Necromortis
11-10-2006, 01:44 AM
Thanks. I kind of wanted to get the coco longer, but every time I tried, God hated me, and made me drop the nose wheelie right into that crack...which equals instant stopagge :(

~Necro

Pathtek4
11-10-2006, 04:44 AM
VERY NICE SET BRO! If I find a smooth enough surface, I may be able to mimic what you just did, hahaha...I've never done it, but HEY, it could happen..lol

Stevie Hunt
11-10-2006, 06:37 AM
nice set bro, you know how hard coco wheelies are with out offset wheels right, haha

aronsamma
11-10-2006, 07:53 AM
By my count, you were about 8.5 hours late, but I guess i'll match it anyway....

dodge
11-10-2006, 10:27 AM
i dont think im going to wate my time trying this one mybe next year for this trick. It makes me soo angry.

Necromortis
11-10-2006, 11:59 AM
Aron - I uploaded it at around 5:30 PM on the 9th...it finished processing at around 6:00 (I hate YouTube).

~Necro

EDIT: Nice match Aron. I understand about the cocos.

Fozzz
11-11-2006, 03:35 AM
Nice set man, I'd give it a go but I'm stuck with the coco board from hell. Unless, by 'distance not mattering', mind if I do it stationary? :p

dodge
11-11-2006, 04:41 AM
Lol i dont think you can do it stationary as that unfair.

Necromortis
11-11-2006, 11:38 AM
Like I said, you've got to roll in and roll out of the trick.

Sorry man.

~Necro

Fozzz
11-12-2006, 02:55 PM
Filmed one. However it didn't come out right and it looks like a primoslide which doesn't move. I'll upload it later and you's can debate whether or not it counts, but if it doesn't I can't skate again for another two weeks so it doesn't matter anyway :p

Izzy
11-12-2006, 03:25 PM
I'll try it tommorrow after school if it's dry, but I doubt I'll be able to do it.lol :p Good set though Christian.

Necromortis
11-12-2006, 11:03 PM
Connor - I'll let you off this time, but next time you forget the hand sign, it won't count. That goes for everyone too, since it's been made clear.

Sorry man.

i can't count that

http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m188/aronphoto/crappycasper.jpg

no feet on the ground in caspers, god kills a puppy every time you do that

seriously though, the board bounces on your front foot as your back foot comes down, and your front foot only comes up after your back foot lands. it should look more like this:

http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m188/aronphoto/goodcasper.jpg

Necromortis
11-26-2006, 04:39 PM
^I know, and if you look, I then jump. You know me Aron, I wouldn't match something if my feet was on the ground during the casper.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v354/Necromortis/Skating/jumpingproof.jpg

See look, this is the image I'm talking about. I'm jumping, off my heel so I can catch the board with my toes mid air.

~Necro

aronsamma
11-26-2006, 04:50 PM
well, these three frames are the ones that preceded that one, and they show that the board bounced off your foot:

NICE SET...NICE MATCH!!

I need flash cards to remember all that...WOW!

May i ask, when you do the flip with the tail in the beginning, is it done with pressure or with a flick of the foot??

Necromortis
11-26-2006, 11:49 PM
I refilmed it. I'll upload it sometime later, I'm dead beat right now.

aronsamma
11-30-2006, 09:49 AM
Wow, necro, you really got a couple of lucky bounces there, and your 360 flip looks really weird. it's about time :P

This one shouldn't be too hard - if I can get the time to do it. Weekends over and now I have school again. Bugger. Wish I'd seen this this morning.

Maybe if I finish my homework for Monday early, I'll go try this.

Stevie Hunt
12-07-2006, 05:53 AM
hey necro, about your set, im not sure man, it looked like the front wheels hit and it kinda looked like your foot missed the board completly from the angle, im not sure, what do you other lot say ?

Necromortis
12-07-2006, 09:21 AM
If you want I can try and re-film it? I've got a lot of schoolwork and stuff, but I should have some time after school today to get to that?

~Necro

aronsamma
12-07-2006, 09:28 AM
i don't think i can imagine a world where that would count. your foot landed on the ground a full 6 frames before the board did, and you're actually doing a different trick. We both did a twisted underflip to switch tailstop, but you're doing a switch twisted underflip to regular tailstop. I don't care about that too much, but you have to land solidly to tail, at least.

Necromortis
12-07-2006, 09:48 AM
I do all my tailstop flips switch. I figured that shouldn't be a problem, since I do all of my 50-50 tricks switch, and that's never been a problem either.

Like I said, I quickly threw this together and uploaded it. If it doesn't count (which it doesn't if my foot hit the ground), then I'll refilm it if I get the time. I do have all day today and tomorrow.

~Necro

Stevie Hunt
12-07-2006, 11:51 AM
it would be good if you could refilm it, i dont mind you doing it switch or whatever, no problem with that bit.

Necromortis
12-07-2006, 12:31 PM
Ok I'll try and get it today.

Its done i would like to say its rather tastey, hope you have fun doing it just like did it will be uploaded in a min. o and the larst trick is a trick i just learned there on the spot it just felt nice for it.

Stevie Hunt
12-11-2006, 11:17 AM
nice set, dose it start from the tail stop or the rail flip becasue all the wheels hit on the landing of the rail flip

aronsamma
12-11-2006, 11:25 AM
what is that? a crossfoot tailstop to nose stop to 180 underflip out?

dodge
12-11-2006, 11:37 AM
yer thats right sorry about the blurness i have to fix my camera is that ok.

the rail flip then you get into tailstop if tahts allowed i thoguht it was.

Necromortis
12-11-2006, 12:02 PM
All four wheels touch the ground after the railflip. So the set is either the railflip OR the crossfooted tailstop to nosestop to 180 underflip thing. Your pick.

~Necro

dodge
12-11-2006, 12:06 PM
OO i thought it was allowed oook i will have the crossfoot tailstop to nosestop to 180 underflip thing out.

If i don't, thanks for letting me play, and I did have fun watching you guys set and match each other :p...But, hey, at least I didn't set just a kickback, um, oh wait ;) lol

its was fun and its not like im going to be able to match necros tick lol.

this set is lame.

Stevie Hunt
12-17-2006, 06:52 PM
dam, this is gonna be hard to string together. i remember these monster combos, haha

Necromortis
12-17-2006, 11:17 PM
Oh come on guys, don't be so sour...

They aren't that hard, they're all fairly basic tricks strung together. The only problem is finding time during the schoolweek to match them. And I know Aron's on winter break, so bleh, all he has to worry about is weather.

Good luck,
~Necro

aronsamma
12-18-2006, 09:04 AM
I also have to worry about the fact that i'm thinking about taking a letter because I hate this combo so much, for so many reasons. There are also two things about this trick that make it MUCH easier for you, but i don't want to say anything, for fear that you will use those things against me later. I'll probably get it eventually, but when each attempt takes a minute and a half, it could take a while.

Necromortis
12-18-2006, 09:08 AM
*Googly eyes*

I honestly didn't think that this trick was hard at all. In fact, the only thing that gave me trouble was the first Casper to Rail - I haven't skated since two Sundays ago because of school and that one was a long time in coming back.

~Necro

aronsamma
12-18-2006, 09:18 AM
it would be easy if it weren't for the two things that I'm not going to tell you, and my utter disdain for endless tailstop combos.

Stevie Hunt
12-18-2006, 09:18 AM
that first casper part i find quite easy but for the life of me i cant get the bloody casper 1/4 flip to rail, it looks so simple too =( still time i guess

dodge
12-18-2006, 12:17 PM
well caspers not my strongest point you seem to put 2 in here and 2 fingerflips varations sorry but im out bye bye.

aronsamma

well, i twisted my recently broken ankle twice today, so we'll have to see about this match. in any case, i landed the first 50/50 trick, but lost balance in nosestop before i was able to get to the NH 50/50, and got almost as close a few more besides that.

well, i decided to man it out and try it some more today. I can get to the first 50/50 trick without too much problem, but the pogo pad on my trucks keeps getting caught in my shoe somehow and the board refuses to flip. Of course, each attempt takes 7 jumps off only my back leg until i get to that point, so my leg is getting pretty sore. I'm going to make you pay, necro :)

here's a delightful screen capture from today:

as you can see, my recently broken ankle is sideways, which is never a good thing. what this means for the game of skate, i don't really know yet. (please stop dancing christian)

^Oh **** man that looks really painful. Hope you get better soon.

But I must say, it seems our situations are reversed - it is sopping wet here and the rain hasn't stoped all day, but it seems relatively dry there.

so much for not being able to do railflip to rails, you dirty liar :)

^I can't do railflip to rails consistently. It took me an hour and a half to get that one, with a grand total of 10 railflip to TS rails (and I only stuck three of them, that one included).

So shush :)

Time was up yesterday.

And I haven't updated my signature. Shame on me really.

Apologies apologies. I unfortunately have not had time to skate since last Sunday - what with Christmas, and now I am taking Driver's Ed. I'll try and get my set up by Friday. I should have time (I hope I do). It may be evil though. Or it may not be.

I'd ask for an extension but I'd rather not.

No, the game is run off of PST. I've got 16 hours until midnight.

well, i set on 12-22-2006, 12:16 PM, which would be 9:16 to you (as if that matters). Five days later, 12-27-2006, 12:16 PM, time was up for matching. At that point, you had two days to set, but since it's been 28+ hours, your time is up. That is, according to your rules at least. There's no mention of waiting until midnight your time on the given day, and I don't see why there should be. You're the only person who would benefit by waiting until midnight your time, since it's well into the night for the rest of us.

^The FGoS4 has always been run like this:

Someone sets. I look at the current date. I add five days to that number. Using my awesome mental math skills, I calculate what day that will be. Then I give people until midnight my time on that day to match. That's how it's done.

When it comes time for sets, I look at the date. I add two days. Then I throw the midnight thing again.

Using your set. You set on the 22nd. 22 + 5 = 27. Therefore, time was up for matching on the 27th, midnight my time. Then, 27 + 2 = 29. My set is up at midnight my time on the 29th (which is today).

I've run all four of the FGoS's like this. The only exception is that I experimented with making people match by the exact time five days later. I thought that was a hassle and not really necessary. So I got rid of it.

See?

I'll have my set up sometime soon.

yeah, that seems nice for people who have sheltered and lighted skate areas and live in california. Anyway, my argument is that you say that you get 5 days to match, and common knowledge says that that's 120 hours. this rule really seems like a cop out, especially since you make no mention in the official rules, or anywhere else for that matter.

Necromortis
12-29-2006, 07:36 PM
^Yet I have consistently run the game like this ever since I've started it. It's not an 'official rule,' it's how I run the games.

My set is uploading now.

well, official rules are the only ones that matter.

By the way, you can't honestly think that that was a coco wheelie. It was quite obviously a primo slide, and is practically impossible on my rough driveway. Of course, you couldn't care less I'm sure, because you went for the jugular on this one anyway. if i match this, expect a tiny primo slide and a very under-extended gymnast.

Necromortis
12-29-2006, 10:07 PM
In all honesty, it was actually a coco, but I'll accept a primo slide if you want. When I took it down to rail it turned itself into a primo slide for a short bit.

I loathe small coco wheelies. Whenever I got a nice long one I'd mess up on the gymnast plant.

Good luck :D

Yeah - I posted this in the set thread:

Well, this game is all about learning from eachother and all that crap, but it really seems like i'm wasting my time. at this rate, we'll just be taking turns making the other person's week miserable, and i dont really have the time for that, especially if it's going to be tricks like gymnast plants, which you know I utterly abhor. So, I'm just going to quit, because I'd rather not waste all my precious winter skate time toturing myself. you win, congratulations.

Oh I say ''WOW"'! Ok, well good game to all...Congrats to Necro...Rep shall be awarded to him from all for winning!

I had fun, learning more then anything haha, but none-the-less definitly a well played game by all! Maybe next time, I won't suck so much, but I probably will!
