Takes me back to the good old days, it does. Starting from now it is Retro...month? I struggle to name it, because there is no definitive time length on this event.
Suffice to say, we should all dress ourselves with a neat new set dedicated to our favourite Final Fantasy characters! Something exciting is just over the rainbow, I can feel it. It'll be a good way to reminisce as the Ciddie season starts to take hold!
Keep an eye out for more to come ;)
Celebrating retro event by donning a new set.
I don't have an old set for a Final Fantasy character or the skills/motivation for a new one. I'll just use this old cat boy thing I had for years way back instead because, I don't know, why not.
A more different set. Goddamn your specifics Bunnikins.Quote:

Everything pre XIII is retro because of how smurfing long it takes them between releases these days.
I've changed my avatar to my original one for this festive occasion :p
August is Retro Month. /oldbie
I'm not entirely sure I have a favorite FF character. I do have a favorite FF though: FFVI.
I'll take Palom.
brb googling a Setzer avatar
It would be super cool if the staff allowed people who used to have Final Fantasy-related names to change back to them for just the duration of this event! But what do I know I'm just a humble humbug.
ya change me back to Braska's Final Aeon you FASCISTS :grover:Quote:

Also if anyone has a spare Palom sig please say so hhh.
As long as there's an opt out option. I don't want to have any screen name here except my own.Quote:

Proto is my favourite! :jess:
For retro month, could I have my name changed to ~Reno~ I used to go by that name for a time ^^
I'd take part and have my name changed to Final-Andy for the month if someone had a way to find my sig/avatar from way back in 05/06
I have decided to use table for this month, hope you like ^^
I almost had a heart attack when I couldn't log in XD.
Thanks for the name change :p
OUR PACK GROWS!
Isn't there some site which has saves of sites from multiple months over the past 10 or so years? I remember someone posted it last time we did a retro thing. That's the only way I'll be able to find my old stuff :[
everyone should use tables! it doesn't get any more retro then TABLES!
Man, I just read the title of the thread and saw the old names and assumed it was retro month. Now you're telling me we're supposed to have new sets of our favorite Final Fantasy characters? Mine is Lightning! How is that retro?! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS EVENT?
Aw boo, I didn't ask for a name change.
Tables were a Crash thing from back in 2005. Almost retro.
Speaking of retro, and of tuh, found this on the web. I lol'd
I was wondering if there were any actual MB wars that inspired that entry in the FAQ.
I want a name change!
Well, I mean, I never had an underscore, but... oh well. I guess I shouldn't expect the staff to care about historical accuracy or anything. We have always been at war with Eastasia.

I don't have to enjoy it though.
Don't lie dude, it makes you all hot under the collar.
Rantzien decided Since I misspelled cactuar He would misspell viera
oh well
Oh :bigsmile:. Now I see it.
When this is all said and done, with staff permission I would like to be Blue Viera, its not stupid, and I like the name, plus it is shorter than what I have
Well Cactuar is retro enough if you ask me :p
Apparently I'm going to knock you all down.
I should so totally be Carbunckle!
I would be happy to log in and see my Name As TrowaBartonIV
:bigsmile:
Final-Andy would do fine...but only for a month :shifty:
Can't help unfortunately :(
WHY IS MY NAME STILL BERT :mad2:
Tell Rantzien :p.
What happened to every other admin? xD sigh
I cant even stand the all caps in my name! graaaaaah!
You're the only one that does anything. :monster:Quote:

I already made that joke! :nonono:
:3
(is it just me or did there used to be more avatars... At least under ff8)
It should probably be noted that nobody here is doing retro right if they are using avatars over 60x60 in size ;)
That member was banned from here for trying to start forum wars. I've never lurked that Zelda place so for all I know he made that quote up too. I don't remember but I was a lot different six years ago so it could be real.Quote:

Haha yeah, the quote was real actually. Just goes to show that some people have way too much time on their hands thoughQuote:

Exception: Stuffed Regis.
Should we lower the sig limit to like 5px too then?
Well my first Palom avatar was smaller than 60 x 60.
That means I'm clean :D
The sig limit hasn't changed that much. I think it used to be something like 150pixels for height.Quote:

Stuffed Regis? I think you're forgetting the original. Of course, you're not retro enough to remember Stuffed Tyler.Quote:

When was EoFF founded?
1999/2000
june 4th 1683.
no it was december 31 1999
I already had an FF themed set. Suck it.
I dunno if I've ever used a av over 60x60 xD
I would have liked to participate in Retro Month but someone took my original username.
Okay for actual retro month I'm just going to get a Lightning set I guess because I don't know wtf I'm supposed to be doing here.
It was Stuffed Tyler first. I started it.Quote:

I like the old one better, though :( but at that time everyone was spelling/saying it wrong (and shortening it to Demo) so I changed it to something SIMPLE
I don't know what I'm doing either, we're just winging it. It's how all good things come about!Quote:

Gotcha. I must have come online a bit later after someone had renamed it. I remember Stuffed Unne with the voodoo doll of Dr Unne (or something like that) when I first saw it going on, and then it later changed to a picture of some guy who I forget who I can only assume is called 'Regis'.Quote:

Hello friends. :)
I want to organise a FF themed rap song so if anyone knows a sweet tune or has some lyrical skillz then let's throw down in this thread!
Dear god dak. You should know better than most that Australians can't rap.
That's why I'm making these other guys rap
I can't find my original avatar. How sad, it was a nifty sprite of Cecil Harvey as a Dark Paladin.
I don't think I've ever changed my avatar, and I've never changed my name.
Retro is go.
When do I get my name back?
Right now.
In Australia, a month is actually three weeks! :shifty: So I changed as many names back as it took for me to get bored of changing names back. If I didn't change yours back, ask another admin to change it back - preferably the one who made the original change! (and that wasn't me)
On behalf of Jiro, thanks for participating, I hope you all had fun with this event. :) I sure did, given that I inadvertently inspired it. Jiro did something to annoy me - probably just existing, he tends to do that a lot - so I changed his name for a laugh and he rolled with it.
Thanks :p.
If I can't have blue viera or pure as a username, can someone at least shorten it to HC~, it's a pain to type the whole thing.
Lol. Oh, Paul, I love you.
Why do you have to type it? o_OQuote:

If he's a girl then, that means I don't want him on Wednesdays. Get it right, Steve.Quote:

Thanks Psychotic for being a turd and thanks everyone for rolling with my failed attempt at a hastily organised nothing-event :D I like this set though so I'm keeping it until I make a new one :D
