Welcome, welcome!

[Schala]

Yeah... Anyone who has anything bad to say about Schala's appearance in Chrono Cross, obviously didn't get the point of the whole story and really needs to play the game again.

Either that or grow out of love of a bunch of fictional characters that not even Square Enix cares about anymore!!

Oh and welcome 'Schala'.

Someone is a little touchy. @_@

[FaustWolf]

'Tis only to be expected. Every aspect of Schala's character may cause contention. Anyone remember the debates over her hair color?

Chrono Fan 1: It was dye! Blue hair dye, I say!!

Chrono Fan 2: No, you fool! Lavos clearly sucked the blue out of her hair!

*fist fight breaks out*

Ah, to fight over a videogame character's hair color. Schala is that awesome.

For my part, I must admit I was underwhelmed with Schala in Chrono Cross. Not Kid -- her character was extraordinary IMO, a fascinating take on nature v. nurture -- but Schala encased in the Time Devourer's crystalline prison. When I read Toasty Frog's classic Cross FAQ and discovered Schala would be in the game, I was expecting magnanimous angelic brilliance that would conform to my fan imagination -- something like this:



(Fanarts by lycan and -- d'oh! I didn't record who authored the second one.)

But alas, the modelers had other ideas. Some disappointment was bound to occur in the transition from 2D to 3D. Still, once you've seen the textures and vertices in all their intricate detail, you have to appreciate the work that went into all of Chrono Cross' character models.

[Schala]

xD Haha. Oh well. I mean, I liked Kidd too. She was pretty awesome. But Schala trapped with Lavos? Not so much...

And those are some really nice fanarts btw.

Hiya! I feel kinda late on the Welcome Wagon. Oh, we--

JANUS! Stop it! Aaagh! (poor Magus Avatar was sucked into a horrible time... reverser... thing... and is now Janus! AAAAAH!)

... please excuse Magus Janus Avatar. He's a little crazy.

Hiya.

I'm new.

I'm a former lurker who finally buckled down and started an account.

Been watching Chrono Compendium for a long time -- I mean, I can easily recall the OOOOOOOLD formatting...

Anywho, I'm here.  Finally.

Welcome, I hope your stay will be an enjoyable and enriching experience.  Old formatting? You mean this: http://web.archive.org/web/20030924200654/http://www.chronocompendium.com/

[Boo the Gentleman Caller]

Daggum.  The memories.

(I told you I have been lurking for a LOOOOONG time...)

I'm just not one for forums - but hopefully that's changing!

[FaustWolf]

As a long-time lurker recently outed myself, I welcome you to the forums Boo. Once you get used to posting, you may find that you can't stop.

[ZeaLitY]

Lurking since the PHPNuke days? Wow. Well, things are about to get shaken up around here...

[Boo the Gentleman Caller]

I know...  but I figured I needed to change things.  Finally give something to the Chrono community, ya know?

[Glennleo]

Welcome!

Why is everyone posting their hellos in this thread?

Nobody gets a snazzy picture and witty comment from me without their own thread lol.
Thems teh rules!

[Anacalius]

Hello all. I've also been lurking around the compendium for quite some time, about a year or so. I finally decided to make an account now, so here I am! I'm a huge Chrono fan, more Trigger than Cross (Which I hear everyone say, but my only reason is that I like old school games more, has nothing to do with the typical whining people tend to do about Cross). Actually, the only problem I have with Cross is that Serge was another mute character. I really hate it when games have the silent main character, makes me feel like Link is the main character. >.<

I also have to say, Chrono Trigger: Prophet's Guile is bad ass. GREAT work on that hack. I was blown away.

Anywho, I'm currently working on a hack of CT, which is coming along rather nicely, I think. I just learned a few tricks today, one being how to change the default names (Thanks again, justin3009), so "Frog" is not named after his appearance anymore. I always thought Crono should have been "Boy" and Marle "Girl" if they were going to take that approach.

I tend to babble on forums, forgetting what I originally wanted to say. Sorry.

I'm Anacalius, most people call me either "Cali" or "Teeps", but I don't expect that from anyone here, but feel free if you remember. =P

Peace

[Kebrel]

Well Teeps I hope you get a kick out of this PLACE.

[Anacalius]

Haha.
Thanks.
Teeps stems from "Teepo", (BoF3) by the way. I used that name on FFXI and never seemed to live it down online. Not sure really how it's stuck with me this long. I haven't even played FFXI for years, aside from a 3 month span about 3 months ago.  I really have grown a strong hatred for that game.

[BROJ]

Hmm.... interesting; a hack, eh?  Well, welcome Anacalius! I hope your stay is an interesting one.

I never was a really a fan of FFXI either. (But it was a good time waster, I guess...)
