Whoopde F!@#in' do!!! I'm sure that's part of the huge marketing campaign and the biggest thing for the 25th anniversary. Guys, we all better run to Jolibees. They're probably talking about how cutting edge Jolibee's is in the fast food market because they sell Robotech product. Guys, this is gonna save Robotech, just wait and see. The good thing is, it's probably got more higher quality than Toynami.

----3---------------3------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ There's some fills and stuff towards the end, and probably more or less of the palm muting for single notes, but that's the basic of it.

If anything, the post at rtx.com seems more like "I put my foot in my mouth again, and I need to rectify my ignorance for the time." What he says is true, but coming from him, it comes off very pretentious and fake. If he practiced what he preached, I'd be totally onboard with his post, but how many times has he attacked various groups, resorted to name calling, and the sort? I think JT would have something different to say. And for those here that interact with Mav on other boards, I hold no reservation on your opinions. To make that comment only after he's pissed off Robotech fans and Macross fans is more spin that a dryer.

Hahaha, wether you're good at it or not, hanging out with local Macross fans would be cool. I know there's quite a few of us around, and to not have smalle gatherings from time to time is almost a shame. There's a wealth of info, and good people around, this would be a way to break the ice a bit.

Man, why are you giving away the plot to part two of the LAM? Robotech:Macrossworld Rising I will be hunting for big boobed women in Mars Base shirts and short skirts, Badow!!!!

If that day works out for you, that would be quite cool Having a simultaneous meet. Bee, let me know if that day is alright.

OK Update, there are a couple guys who want to come, but can't make the 13th, so I'm gonna push it to Saturday the 20th. This will also get the word out a little more for those who catch this late in the game. We will have some people bringing some very cool stuff that I haven't seen yet, so should be interesting. If anyone who is coming wants to bring stuff, bring it on. I'll be bringing an item or two. Bee, still down for poker on that day???

I take it those are done in musical notation, or is it tablature? If so, I may have to get them.

Excellent, so, we'll add a poker game to that evening. Sounds like a lot of fun. Exo, I know you'll be there.

Yep, those guys were once good Robotech fans. Apparently, Maverick's post is even rippling into the RT fanbase. One of these days, I'm gonna call all Macross Fans who didn't like or understand M7 uneducated, stupid fans. We'll see how that goes over (j/k).

OK, I was thinking a tentative date of Saturday, March 13th. There's a Curry House Restaurant, as well as several Ramen places, and plenty places to walk to. I was thinking either noon, or 1p.m. What's in Cerritos that would be better? That's a plan, anyone volunteering the space? I'd use mine, but very limited with space, as you know.

I'm not familiar with the turn of events there, Gubaba, is there a link? Hahaha, maybe I'm just a nosey person. The legal debate between Tak and Chrisk looks quite interesting. Take it to the courts!!

I don't think she made a cheap shot. Maverick does say that he was attempting to flatter Seto. It's there in his own print. Not only that, I doubt that you hound people and troll for them, and attempt to get them to respond to you. There's a big difference. I think you're alright, Gubaba.

I'd like to read what more Robotech fans think of mods like Maverick_LSC calling most of them too stupid to understand a show that wasn't even written by the sci-fi author Mav thinks it is. So far, I've pointed it out to a couple, one of which kinda knows Maverick, or at least did. He thinks he's a complete dumbass...can't blame him.

Just out of curiosity, did you tryout the Planet Dance tab yet? It's a lot harder to write these out than to play them. Sometimes I leave stuff out.

Cool, buddy, I'll post up a date tomorrow. It'll be fun. So far, there's 3. If anyone wants to bring anything too, that's always cool. I wouldn't bring anything super huge though.

Where are you at now? I didn't want everyone to think this is a huge official event or anything, just something to do. I haven't been down to Little Tokyo for awhile so I thought that'd be a good place to go. If anyone had any other ideas, they are open.

You're talking about a complete imecile with absolutely no idea of anything that goes on outside of Robotech. Seeing him try to write like he actually does no what is going on is more for kicks. I wouldn't even bother trying to correct his remarks. If it doesn't say Robotech in the subject, his brain is shut down.

Be afraid, be VERY afraid. If anything, it does show that Maverick does have a true fondness for you. Imagine how it'll be when you break his heart?!?!

Looks like Mav is trying to pad his idiotic remark with Memo's assumption. It seems to go like this (improvised for those that don't "understand" Shadow Chronicles) Maverick: Robotech Shadow Chronicles is so cerebral, anybody who doesn't like it and doesn't understand it is stupid. It's so cerebral, I can't even understand it's depth. Memo: DUDE, WHAT YOU TALKING BOUT. I DON'T LIKE M7, BUT YOU THROWN ME OFF WITH THAT CERBRAL TALK Maverick: That's cause I'm trying to be super cerebral here in my explanation, I don't even understand it yet, but I'm gonna dedicate my life to understanding it. Memo: HEHEHE, YOU TRYING TO BE LIKE SETO? IF THAT WHAT YOU DOING, I UNDERSTAND, NOT M7. Maverick: Um, yeah, OK. That's what I was trying to do all this time. Forget what I said before. That's what I always meant to say. I was doing a parody of Seto, cause I want to flatter him. Did it work? Seto, call me in the morning. OK, that wasn't a parody, that was just calling it for what it is.

When I saw the screening at the HG studio of this, at the end, there was a lot of clapping and such. What I found quite interesting, was that many people in the theater that I did not know (probably HG employees or other employees of Funimation and the sort), were making comments like "why do the women look like they're in a circus?" Other comments that followed were "How much did we pay for this?" and "Who do they plan to show this to?" These weren't from Macross Purists, I assure you. These were people with a raw, unbiased outlook on RTSC. I'm sure Maverick thinks these people are stupid, too, even though they probably have lives that have accomplished more than being a moderator and dud podcaster. I'm sure the HG staff would love to know who those people were that made those comments, so they can stalk them, but those comments have been shared by others I know who aren't in the "know" about debates, and all that. On a sidenote, for anyone living in the SoCAL area, I'm trying to set up a hangout/get together lunch thing. It's in the fan gathering/convention threads. If interested, it's open to everyone. Details are there.

There's a reason why arguments like the use of mecha sniper rifles and the sort don't hold up (well, more than one) for their purposes. First off, what is the point of it? Does it invalidate the entire series? If someone's gonna nitpick trivial elements (I don't find them too trivial), then compare them to a series that failed to have much of anything positive, it puts Maverick_LSC's argument as just a feable flamebait. It's been pointed out, so there you go. If you're gonna defend Robotech, by all means, do it, but if you're gonna try to validate it by taking pot shots at Macross, you're gonna look like you came off the short bus everytime.

In Macross Plus, there's a short segment where Isamu is about to get relocated. In that one scene, it kinda references the fact that there are mining colonies/operations, and other planets used for specific reasons, not just colonization. It kinda gave me the impression that there are several reasons for the colonization services the fleets serve. Maybe it's more like a realistic version of Star Trek, except instead of just exploring, and expanding, they are also attempting to expand the human race in resources, militarily, gain allies, and adding additional worlds for humans is a great way to preserve the race. I also agree that the emmigration fleets maybe a lucrative endeavor. Perhaps with mining colonies and being able to obtain that much more in resources, the cost of metals and resources to build fleets isn't as high as it is in our real world. The economics have to be drastically different in that universe than what we would perceive in our own. Just my ideas.

Hey everyone. I have been talking with Gubaba, and we would like to invite everyone to a small, MW get together in Little Tokyo perhaps. I was thinking of a Saturday, early afternoon or something, but wanted to see if anyone was interested in attending. There are several different places to eat in the area, as well as Anime Jungle (two different stores), and Kinokuniya book store. I thought we'd all be able to just hang out and do the Geek thing, and talk shop. Anyways, if interested, share your interests and for what day. I'd like to do it some saturday in March. The more the merrier.

Yeah, at least it seems like they were basing that statement from the original footage. Seems like they totally disregarded Shadow Chronicles. Those two would've been perfect for the new Alice in Wonderland movie as Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum.
