(I couldn't find a version without commentary.  At least this guy's commentary is humorous.)

...

I now have to watch all of those videos.  Dammit Uboa!  :)

Yeah, they're pretty good!  I like the movie clips he inserts periodically.

He does it just to piss you off Bekkler.  :P

But wait, isn't Meh-gas the proper way to pronounce it? Or would May-gas be the right way?

BAILEEEEEEEEEEEEY!

Yeaaaah that was annoying me too.

Personally, I've always said May-gis (hard "g").

The one Uboa posted, at 6:25, is HILARIOUS.

"Yeah, get em, Lavos! Get him! Get him! He turned ...Glenn into a frooog."

You have to hear it. Text version is not funny.


Mage-iss is ok, at least it makes sense with the way it's spelled. But not Meg Ass. There is no E in the name, Bailey! Keep the E out! Also there is no I in Ayla! She is not a pirate, she is a cave person. They are equal levels of cool but have separate stereotypical quips!

I guess my pronunciation would be MaI'g(schwa)s in IPA. Only reason I know that is linguistics.

Hell, this is the frustration thread, why not say it: IPA is effing difficult to type on a computer, and barely anyone understands it anyway.

At last the definitive answer to the question of how to pronounce "Magus".

Mah-Yee-Gus is what it sounds like
But the syllables have no space between them.

I'm annoyed that I'm banished to areas outside of my dorm once my roommate goes to bed because my suitemates are constantly in the living room screeching with their boyfriends or watching TV.  >_<

There needs to be a good Magus-themed rage picture, just for these^ sorts of occasions.

Angry enough for ya? Although that does look more old than angry... "URGH I'M OLD AND INCONTINENT AND HAVEN'T KILLED LAVOS YET. I HATE EVERYTHING."

Frustration: it's 6 AM. Morning classes suck, and so do the people downstairs for romping around the kitchen at all hours of the night/morning.

I've spent all day working on Chrono Trigger DS content. I'm down to wrapping up the Lost Sanctum & Arena of the Ages entries, then finishing Characters and lastly Chronology. And then comes poring over that entire massive forum for analysis and trying to figure out where the hell "Dream's Epilogue" fits in the canon.

I was about to go to sleep, but I remembered my novel idea. It's a particular one out of three, and it's been sitting un-actualized in my brain since 2005. It's still tenable. I'd still love to write it. But I haven't put anything down because of these damn niggling projects.

Second wind. I'm going to finish that god-forsaken worthless interminable Lost Sanctum entry and keep fucking going.

Second wind costs a standard action, you might have to wait for your next turn or use an action point.
I like the lost sanctum. The quests are fairly challenging and entertaining. My biggest problem with it is the maps. They look like shit. Seriously, CE and Prophet's Guile had much better mapping. Those forests actually looked like forests, whereas the Lost Sanctum just gives us a maze of trees that aren't naturally clumped. Way to go.

This isn't so much of a frustration as it is a really depressing sadness. My grandpa used to be a painter. Before mom and dad divorced we had this huge oil painting he did in an ornate frame hanging in our dining room. It was a canyon with dark, dark mountains and a very vibrant sunset. This is where I got my love for saturated colours and my passion for art, this is my Zeal. I just found out that it got damaged in a move, I don't even know where it is anymore. It's been years since I've seen it, and I don't remember exactly what it looked like, just that it had very vibrant reds and oranges and blacks. It was the most beautiful painting I've ever seen. I'm going to do some sleuthing and see if I can't at least find its remains.
RIP, Zeal.
