dont worry...i figured out the problem is with my cube...i think.

anyway, i've already ordered a new one off ebay. should be here soon, but i wont be able to play this weekend because ill be in lancaster PA all weekend getting drunk and playing the trumpet. x)

edit: got the cube! didn't have time yesterday to do much more than test to see if it works. Hopefully I'll start working on roy next weekend or something. Anyway, off to work...then off to lancaster. 8D

melee disc broke...might have something to do with leaving the game on for three weeks straight >_>;;;

Another update on the roy strat: I've changed it again...made it slightly more complex, but it's easier to do (for me, i've heard samus1 hates it lolol), gets more %, and strangely is actually pretty close to the same speed as my old strat!

basically, it's a blend of the following two strats:

Will probably get 150 or 151 easily.

I actually find the alternating bds easier because roys ada bds are a pain in the *** imo...except the one after the second bd aua for some reason x)

i think it might also make the ending easier re: the positioning of the sandbag. but im actually finding that, because of the nature of the bat hit on the fake bd afa, you can get the ending to work from a variety of %s, from 143 through 151+, in either ft or jap mode. strangely enough, jap mode isn't significantly slower

one final caveat is that im not gonna have a ridiculous amount of time this summer to work on hrc...ill do what i can though
