In order to become the human concept of Joy, as we have done, you can do one of two things. The first is to undertake a journey to Ancient Ademadegon and return with the the 3 heads of the Awesomegret which roosts in the Crystal Caverns of Caramel Colors. Or, two, register on this site. They are basically the same thing, really.

Gotta catch 'em all. Yep. Posts: 2,481 Group: Members Member #147 Joined: August 26, 2006	So our ps3 just busted, along with anyone who has the 60GB Backwards compatibility model. Around 7:30 pm, I put Dragon Age in to play it, after giving it a break for an hour or so (I had been playing since 9 in the morning). I got an error concerning the trophies not being able to be registered properly, and the game quit. I did this with Resident Evil 5, same results. After looking in the main system menu, I find trophies for both games have been deleted. I got on the forums and find that many, MANY, MANY people are having this exact same problem, at the exact same time. Turns out there was some sort of error with the clocks on the system, that didn't account for a leap year. The system's clock had been reset to December 31, 1999, and had deleted the trophies of any game I put in because according to the clock, I hadn't earned them yet. Sony is scrambling to fix the problem, but I don't see it getting fixed, affirming the notion that this was just a mass plot to get all us stingies to go cough up cash for the new ps3 models.

I need Prince and the Revolution, several copies of Purple Rain, a little red corvette, and Randy Mendez before I even get on that train of thought. -edit- Speaking of which, where is Randy? I heard from him in ages. Edited by DA_KLOWN, Mar 1 2010, 12:04 AM.

He texted me a while back and said that he was giving up non-essential internet for a while. I'm not sure why or when he'll be done with that.
