The Questions Thread.

I'm sorry, you should probably just call HP. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

No you were, thanks I will try if I can get to them, or get someone to look at it. But the last time it did this it did fix itself after a day, maybe it will do the same (Here's the kicker though, I was away for almost three days, my computer was off that long and it was only yesterday I got home, and like 4-8 hours that the computer was on)

No. why do you think there's so much pkmn fan art?

Is it not copyright infringement, though? And, if it is, would it still be so if there were no plans to distribute it? Could someone please clear me up on this. I've recently read this: http://www.intelproplaw.com/Forum/Fo...7900766;start= and was wondering whether it was true or not.

Oh, I also have another question along the same lines as my previous ones.
Would a text-based role-playing site be illegal (technically or otherwise) if it were based on an existing franchise, such as Pokémon or Warrior Cats? This would class as a derivative work, wouldn't it?

Might seem an odd question...
Thor's hammer was called Mjölnir. Now in Anglo Saxon mythology Thor was called Thunor (where we get Thursday from). So I was wondering, did Mjölnir have an Anglo-Saxon equivalent/rename?

I can't answer this at the moment, but I'm taking an Anglo-Saxon/Norse mythology course next quarter at my college, so I'll get back to you on that. Haha.

Junior Year apparently means figuring out what you're going to do with your life.

So I went to a college fair last Friday, and I found around 7 different schools I'm interested in going to after I graduate. They are all around four hours away from my house right now, and that is the general area that I want to be. Far enough away so I don't have to actually see my family with the exceptions for holidays and visits and close enough to get there within 5 hours in case of an emergency.

My parents want to limit our college visits to 4 schools, and that is okay with me. My question is, should I apply to all 7, or just apply to the 4 in which I'm visiting? When should I start applying?

Definitely start applying as soon as you can because a.) the sooner you finish, the less you have to worry about it in the future, and b.) some colleges offer special scholarships that can only be received when you apply before certain (and mostly early) deadlines. I'd definitely get started ASAP.
As far as how many of the colleges you should apply to, I'd definitely go with the initial top four that you had in mind. I was the same way as you last year during my college application process—I wanted to apply everywhere. But then I came across the dreaded application fee. All of the colleges I applied to cost between $40-$65 JUST to apply. That alone was enough to limit me to four. I also feel that applying to any more will make your final decision more stressful because you'll have to weigh factors like tuition, majors, etc. among seven schools, rather than four. It'll be easier in the long-run. Hope this helps!

Could you give more than two EMs to a pokemon with two different father pokemon
Example:
Machamp and Electabuzz=CrossChop(EM)
Hitmonchan and Electabuzz(CrossChop)=CrossChop,Fire punch,Ice punch,and Thunderpunch(EM)
Just wondering if this as possible
Think I posted this in the wrong question thead.

I'm usually the only one to use our wifi. The other day my stepdad was using it on his computer while I was trying to get on the pokemon wifi room, I was having a lot a trouble connecting to the person I was seeking. Can his using the wifi on the comp affect my DS wifi?

Yes, this should likely go in the pokemon questions thread. But I believe the answer would be no.

In Ben 10 Ultimate Alien's episode, ''Ultimate Sacrifice'', when all the Ultimate transformations are freed from the Ultimatrix, can Ben still go ultimate?

Whenever I try to log-on to Nintendo Wi-Fi, it gives me the error code 5200. It says I have a problem obtaining the IP adress, but when I run a connection test it works fine. I have a pending trade and I can't obtain my FC and its really, really, really annoying. Can someone give me help?

[ZekromTheGreat]

Is it youre first time using it?Did you register youre friend code?Also, always double check youre routers connection and where you are.

[Notalwaysbalckanddwhite]

I'm sitting about 20 feet away. It is my first time using it with the new router. The lady IS offering me a friend code. I don't have one since I needed a new DS because my old one broke. The connection test runs fine, but everything else- eshop, GTS, EVERYTHING is giving me a new error code and just not connecting. Nintendo.com is no help because my router brand is not listed anywhere. *eye twitches*

I've been curious about this small excerpt from Time Magazine...

"Did you know that when people appear in your dreams, it's because that person wants to see you."

Is this true? Could someone, if possible, elaborate on this?

You don't need an account.

I've heard this as well, but I really don't know how the brain would possibly know that. It's probably more likely that you recently thought of them, or want to see them.

Could you link us or give us a more specific quote? We don't know who wrote this or how knowledgeable they are on this subject.

I don't give that quote much credit, regardless of the vagueness and unspecified speaker. I suppose there could be a short distance transfer of some sort of brainwaves (if such has possibility of existing) or bodily material (like pheromones). Long distance, though, seems impossible, unless we're speaking supernatural here.

Of course, even then, I would still doubt that every person in our dreams wants to see us...

Make sure you enter in all the required information and know how many EVs you have.

Wait a minute, this is Misc. Go use the Pokemon Questions Thread in General Pokemon Discussion.

How do you say these two things in Japanese?
I walked down the hall
I went up the stairs

The Japanese question thread I usually go to at another forum is very inactive so I came here.

[Qmaz246]

Lets see, might not be correct because of the Google use.

私が廊下を歩いて or Watashi ga rōka o aruite
and
私は階段を上って行きました or Watashi wa kaidan o nobotte ikimashita

[Calamity™]

Google for language translations is normally incorrect. And apparently Japanese translations are the worst. So maybe it would be best to wait for someone who knows Japanese well.

[Qmaz246]

LOL, what did i say?

[Vern]

Is it okay to say "Alright"? Or should I just continue to use "All right"? Or does it matter at all?

[Qmaz246]

Well, what ever spell check says. Either way works, so it doesn't matter.
