Howdy, all. Sorry about the hiatus on the answer. A Power Transformer blew out at my place and took out my Motherboard, CPU, RAM, and an HD. Needless to say, it took some time, and a plethora of new Computer Parts, to recover.
I was firing up to update Galactica Phantom for 2K2/3, but with my girlfriend temporarily moving in with me for about a month, all plans are now put on hold. Does anybody know of or have translated stories for 2K3? Otherwise, I could just rely on the Almighty Babelfish.
Must be going now. I'm taking two Winter Session classes, what's eating up the remainder of my free time. It's two classes worth six units, effectively 32 weeks worth of information, all crammed into fourteen days. The reading schedules are like nothing you'd believe, easily a few hundred pages a day if I can keep up. Anyhow...
...And Talbain and Cammy both pwn as well. Peace.

It was a pretty awesome site with very well layed out character and story info, which often linked some of my friends to, and I checked up on it again today only to find its gone and replaced with an ad. Wha happen?
What happened to the "iscrappy.com" line of domains on my sites, they were 50 MB worth of Free Space with Unlimited Bandwidth and I had each respective site on its own domain, since each site was both differentiated enough and large enough in size to constitute being on its own server.
When the KOF2K3 USA/CA Location Test came about, my friend Yasakani Iori, also known as Muchiko on ON, made some videos and I was going to UL them to my Paid Servers with Limited Bandwidth. However, I was hesitant to since I had to pay fines for Astral Vision going 20 GB over my alloted bandwidth the previous month. When I remember the iscrappy.com sites had Unlimited Bandwidth, I immediately uploaded them there, stored on Galactica Phantom, a King of Fighters site, and Astral Vision's, a Vampire/Darkstalkers site, servers.
Shortly thereafter, a visitor to the site narced that I had multiple sites using the iscrappy.com, or Web1000, servers. Web1000 felt like I was exploiting them by having multiple sites and so pulled the plug on all my sites... Puar's Place, Astral Vision, Reality Check, It Only Hurts When I Sing, and, of course, Galactica Phantom.
This is similiar to what happened ages ago, with one of the first incarnations of Puar's Place which was essentially a great plethora of sites under just that one banner name, before I decided to fit each GameFAQ site with its own name and unique design. Sites similiar to Galactica Phantom and Astral Vision for Samurai Shodown, Rival Schools/Legion of Heroes, Last Blade, Street Fighter Zero/Alpha, the SNES Ranma games, and others that I fail to remember because it's been so long.
Puar's Place was hosted by Hypermart at the time and grew to a point where it needed to be hosted on two seperate Hypermart sites. A visitor sent off a message to the Powers That Be at Hypermart and thus came the end of the first Era of Puar's Place, also known as the time when I had such a small HD that I could not back any of my sites up. Man, did that suck...
On a slightly related note, the person who would claim to have brought about the first end of Puar's Place would later try to assume my Internet Identity and riled up a few folks who were under the impression that I had undergone a sadistic change of heart or had developed an acute case of schizophrenia. Anyhow, what matters now is I'm back, I'm here to stay, and I pay for my hosting. If anyone else is looking for quality hosting at decent prices, I highly recommend http://www.fuitadnet.com.
Now, I should be getting ready for my second class. I'm in school from 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM more or less. How I ever did this every day in Grade School, I'll never know. I'm in awe of my Five-Year-Old Self who did this seven days a week in the first grade no problems.
