The soundtrack of Super Smash Bros. Fracas would be presented in-game in 7.1 channel 100% lossless audio. To accommodate this, there will be no ripped tracks as in the existing installments of the Super Smash Bros. series. That means that the tracks will all be remixed or replicated to utilize this audio quality. The soundtrack would have mostly orchestral arrangements, possibly by a 200-man orchestra. Like its predecessor, the soundtrack would be scored by legions of composers. For the first time in Super Smash Bros. history, the soundtrack will also feature tracks from canceled games such as Star Fox 2 available as downloadable tracks.

Super Smash Bros. Fracas: Stages
There would be a ton of stages in Super Smash Bros. Fracas. Like Brawl, Fracas will have a custom stage feature, but it will be more advanced than in Brawl. Some of them will be unlockable (*) or downloadable (#).
Tracks from Mario Kart HD can be ported to Super Smash Bros. Fracas as stages.
For reasons of realism, most of the stages will have a realistic day-and-night phase based on the console's internal clock, a la Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.
The stages for Super Smash Bros. Fracas are:

GENERAL INFORMATION
Fracas would be probably released 8 years after Brawl and be a 5 or 6-year project. The Brawl staff would return for Fracas and new staff would also be added. Brawl was roughly a 2-year project. Fracas would be the first Super Smash Bros. game to be presented in high definition. It would be a 1080p title and released for Nintendo Wii 2 and/or Wii 3. It would be the first Super Smash Bros. game to have unlockable female characters (including a third-party one), as well as playable female Fire Emblem characters. Fracas's graphics would be a big improvement over Brawl's graphics. There would be a two-part Adventure Mode, which are New Subspace Emissary Parts I and II. They would each have a Fire Emblem: Seisen no Keifu character to be unlocked after beating them 96 times. After each of these are unlocked, the plot would be altered to give Sigurd and Ayra a respective role in each.
The characters would be arranged by franchise, with the franchise symbols being displayed when played on an SDTV and having the player click on it to reveal the characters associated with the corresponding franchise. When played on an HDTV, the characters would be displayed from the getgo as in the previous Super Smash Bros. games.
For Fire Emblem representation, it will be mostly Lords in its lineup. Popular non-Lords would appear as downloadable characters. Exception is that Sothe would be a starter character, because he is a semi-Lord and is very important. Fire Emblem will sell well enough to get big representation. Ike's appearance in Brawl as a playable character and the controversy of Lyndis being an Assist Trophy sparked Fire Emblem sales. Fire Emblem: Shin Ankoku Ryuu to Hikari no Ken scored highly in Famitsu. The predictions at Smashboards.com in mid-2008 would come false.
Eight downloadable characters would be made available per year. Six downloadable stages would be made available per year.
The Wii 3 would be released in 2016, and Fracas would be released in Japan in January 2018. The downloadable characters run would go from 2018 to 2023.

David Cook is the seventh American Idol
On May 21, 2008, David Roland Cook was crowned the seventh American Idol, with the teenage David Archuleta as the runner-up. American Idol judge Simon Cowell was rooting for him anyway. Cook then sang "The Time of My Life", the winning song of American Idol season 8. "The Time of My Life" was written by Regie Hamm and produced by Steve Lipson.
Son of Beth (née Frye) and Stan Cook, David Roland Cook was born in Houston, Texas, on December 20, 1982. He was raised in Blue Springs, Missouri. His younger brother Andrew attends the University of Central Missouri, and his older brother Adam resides in Terre Haute, Indiana. Cook's parents divorced during his childhood. His mother remarried and became known as Beth Foraker. His father relocated to Indianapolis, India.
Cook's interest in music began during childhood. He received his first guitar at the age of 12. He began singing in second grade, when his elementary school music teacher had him sing solo in a school choir performance. He proceeded to perform in virtually every Christmas and PTA program. He also participated in choir and drama programs and middle and high school. He performed various musicals, such as West Side Story (which is based on William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet). He was also an avid baseball player in high school. He lost interest in sports and began to focus more on music. He attended the University of Central Missouri. When he was in college, he was a member of Phi Sigma Kappa. After graduating from college,
he relocated to Tulsa, Oklahoma, to pursue a music career, telling his family, "I just want to give myself until I'm 26 years old to get a job."
Cook was the lead singer of the band called Axium, a Missouri-based band, from 1999 to 2006, when Axium disbanded. He formed the band during his junior year in high school with drummer Bobby Kerr. One of Axium's songs, "Hold", was selected by AMC Theatres Movies Tunes and was played before previews on over 20,000 screens across the United States. After Axium disbanded, Cook relocated to Tulsa, Oklahoma, and joined the regional touring band called Midwest Kings, as a guitarist, bassist, and backup vocalist. He recorded an EP entitled Incoherent with Desire to Move On, with Midwest Kings in 2006. He worked as a bartender in Tulsa clubs such as Blank State and Rehab Lounge.
Cook released an independent solo album, entitled Analog Heart, in 2006. He designed the artwork for the album. The album was declared the fourth-best CD released in 2006 by the website Music Equals Life. Cook also won the Urban Tulsa Weekly's "Absolute Best of Tulsa" award for "Best Locally Produced, Independent Album" in 2007. Before he auditioned for American Idol, he finished recording his second album. During the weekend of April 18, 2008, Analog Heart was listed as the no. 1 album for "Today's Top MP3 Albums" on Amazon.com. Shortly thereafter, Analog Heart was deleted from Amazon.com.
Cook's musical influences include Our Lady Peace, Alice in Chains, Big Wreck, and Pearl Jam.

The next American Idol is going to be male
First it was Amanda Overmeyer, then Ramiele Malubay, then Kristy Lee Cook, then Carly Smithson, then Brooke White, and final Syesha Mercado. Syesha Raquel Mercado, the last woman standing, has been voted off of American Idol, giving her third place and joining Kimberley Locke as the female contestant in the top 3 to allow the top 2 male contestants to compete in the finale. The season 7 finale would be head to head between David Cook and David Archuleta. Archuleta's father has been banned from backstage for bullying.
Meanwhile, American Idol season 6 runner-up Blake Lewis called the season 6 finale unfair, because the producers gave him unfair restrictions. He was not allowed to be creative, while his winner Jordin Sparks was allowed to be creative.
Syesha Raquel Mercado was born on January 3, 1987, in Bridgeport, Connecticut. She was raised in Sarasota, Florida. Her mother Zelda Mercado is African-American, but her father José is Hispanic. She attended Daughtry Elementary School in Manatee County, Florida. She graduated from Booker High School in 2005, where she was in the Theater Visual Performing and Arts department. As of now, she attends Florida International University in Miami, Florida.
Mercado auditioned for American Idol Season 7 in Miami, Florida, singing "Think", recorded by Aretha Franklin, where all three judges (Simon Cowell, Randy Jackson, and Paula Abdul), unanimously said "Yes" to her and granted her entry to Hollywood. When she entered Hollywood, she temporarily lost her voice and went on vocal rest. She then communicated through handwriting. She sang "Chain of Fools" and was accepted into the semifinals. She was the only female in the top 3 and was voted off on this day, locking in the gender of the next American Idol winner to male, thus leaving two male contestants David Archuleta and David Cook to compete in the finale. Despite positive reviews from the judges, Mercado was in the bottom two or three five times, evading elimination. Some commentators, including American Idol judge Simon Cowell, believed that her singing style is more suited for broadway than pop music. I myself believe that her style is also suited for R&B.
According to AmericanIdol.com, her musical influences are Whitney Houston (ex-wife of New Edition member Bobby Brown), Etta James, Alicia Keys (princess of Neo Soul), Zap Mama, Lauryn Hill, and Aretha Franklin (the queen of soul).
Mercado is currently engaged to actor and producer Hess Wesley.

Mario has been thrown off Dancing With the Stars
Unfortunately the 21-year old R&B artist Mario Barrett, simply known as Mario, has been voted off Dancing With the Stars, alongside his professional dancing partner Karina Smirnoff, during
Tuesday's results show, which also served to celebrate the show's 100th episode. Mario came in third place following the judge's score last Monday. Mario and Smirnoff performed a Viennese waltz and a jive during Monday's performance show, earning 53 out of 60 points. The judges crowned him "new prince" following his ballroom dance, but was scolded for his Latin dance.

I have been banned from FinalFantasyForums.net
Mercy bears richer fruits than strict justice.—Abraham Lincoln
This is a horrible night for me. I have been sadly banned from FinalFantasyForums.net for posting politically incorrect material and extreme trolling. The decision was unanimous according to them. I cannot bear this, and it will be very difficult to get over. The reason stated was: "Offensive / sexist material; instigating extreme drama."
The message from administrator Dr. Cid at this thread at the board states:
This is very sad and unfair. I am very, very upset about it. This is the most dramatic ban I ever suffered in the history of my message board life. They showed no love for me like they would promise. I originally joined this board in response to being banned from TheFinalFantasy.com. This ban is too dramatic for me to get over. As a result, I decided not to attend another message board again. I am not really that offensive. I did not intend to offend whomever was offended. I am not really a sexist. Some were claiming that I am. They think my opinion is disturbing to them. Feminism is a growing issue that must be resolved. At my message board, there were extreme fights against me by VengefulRonin (also known as StormShadow) of FinalFantasyForums.net as well as AYRA_ROX. They manipulated the moderating team into the unanimous decision to ban me from the board. The decision to erase all the threads started by me is going to backfire.
I really miss FinalFantasyForums.net. I am very sorry for inadvertently offending them. It was not really my fault. VengefulRonin and Sgt Pepper stirred things up to leading me to being banned. They were so intent in exacerbating my problems. They imported material from my message board to FinalFantasyForums.net to lure me into getting banned. I did not really want to offend the staff, posting about gender-sensitive topics like feminism and female fashion, which are the main subjects of this blog. They are nothing but proponents of the New World Order. The reason my opinion may have cause them to hate me is that they were brainwashed by false ideologies. They are narrow-minded authoritarians who want to censor ideas they believe to be objectionable. That is staged objectionability. The word sexist is basically a swear word. Are they going to ever accept me?
The opposing members of FinalFantasyForums.net have no respect for feminine values or the truth about gender politics. They are blinded by political correctness. Feminine values are very important for society. It is the so-called modern influences that have deployed rhetorics of feminism in an attempt to rob women of feminine values and take them up on a vain and narcissistic ego trip. They have that same old feminist view of domestic violence.
Society has been impoverished by this brand of feminism (or women's liberation), since feminism can only succeed in defeminizing women or in transforming them into unrecognizable hybrids, known as butch dykes, which are women who fashion themselves after men. However, humankind has no hybrid. Women are not men. Women are intrinsically different from men. It is the bonding of manhood and womanhood that completes humankind. It is evident that if women lose their femininity, the very essence of being a woman, or if the allure of the female sex is gone, then women are can no longer what God dubbed "the special genius" of women, to bring forth to society values that civilize culture and shape people's lives. The disastrous consequences of gender identity crisis in women affect every aspect in life. Feminine values are the most palpable in modern societies, and hence, societies are worse off with this brand of women's liberation. Nevertheless, the implementation of feminism, especially by legal force, can only lead to societal collapse and eventually the end of mankind.
Feminism is learned, not inborn. It is taught in public colleges and universities. Far too many young females have been brainwashed to believe this deceptive, devastating, and destructive ideology. Feminists have a extremely negative perception of male sexuality. They have the tendency to criminalize normal heterosexual men. Feminism is a false ideology that has instigated false doctrine in the churches and seduced many Christians. It has exacerbated the very problem it sought to resolve. Mary Kassian, co-author of The Feminist Mistake: The Radical Impact of Feminism on Church and Culture", wrote: "Instead of promoting healthy self-identity for women or contributing to a greater harmony between the sexes, it has resulted in increased gender confusion, increased conflict, and a profound destruction of morality and family. It has left in its wake a mass of dysfunctional relationships and shattered lives. People of this culture no longer know what it means to be a man or a woman or how to make life work."
Victory of feminism translates into a combination of fear, disorder, and tyranny originating from the United States throughout the world, from the most intimate relationships to high culture and worldwide politics. Feminism translates into fear, suspicion, and hostility where mutual reliance is absolutely necessary, and into growing deception, heartlessness, and everyday brutality. It translates into confusion and misery for young people, thus robbing them of stable family life and and concrete ideals of adulthood. It translates into the end of local and popular institutions by more powerful and irresponsible bureaucracies. Feminism is a destructive social movement based on lies, fear, false allegations, dishonest statistics, and intentional misapprehension of mankind. It presents itself as a proponent of equal opportunity, but in reality it is a proponent of female privilege. Anything feminist say is far-left socialist propaganda.
The FinalFantasyForums.net doctrine is based on the radical feminist doctrine. It teaches that women are free to get away with murdering men and children. It teaches that parents should teach boys that respect is a one-way street. It teaches that males have to respect females but not vice versa. It teaches that women are unaccountable for their actions, and that it is okay for women to kill men and children and go scott-free. That is preposterous!
Feminism is one of the most devastating, debilitating, deceptive, and destructive social movements of our time. The true feminist agenda is horrifying and Satanic. Feminism is an ancient heresy that is designed to destroy God's design. It actually started in the Garden of Eden. Eve, the original feminist, usurped the position that belonged to Adam and thought she could act independent from Adam and drove the human race into sin. This was the first act of feminism ever.
Finally, feminism has no chance of victory, because it undermines any stable and productive ordering of human life. It undermines reproduction and childrearing and jeopardizes long-term social survival. It has done tremendous damage and will do further damage on a grander scale before it destroys itself.
I have accused FinalFantasyForums.net of:
FinalFantasyForums.net is the worst message board that I have even banned from! It is neither a democracy nor a benevolent dictatorship; it is a feminist police state! However, my ban on from that board is not worth contesting. The staff, the administrators, and moderators and the "offended" members are too politically correct for me to get along with. They support and enforce an ideology with a gendered name that claims to stand for gender equality but, in reality, is a political activist movement based on false premises and a misandristic belief system which, in its worst forms, denies and quarrels with reality, suppresses men's and women's choices, burdens the government, curtails and tramples liberty, hurts and villifies men, corrupts and infantilizes women, puts children at risk, and fosters animosity between the genders.
The moral of this post is: You must not force ideologies based on false notions or dishonest statistics or put gender equality ahead of freedom of speech.
This is a horrible night for me. I have been sadly banned from FinalFantasyForums.net for posting politically incorrect material and extreme trolling. The decision was unanimous according to them. I cannot bear this, and it will be very difficult to get over. The reason stated was: "Offensive / sexist material; instigating extreme drama."
The message from administrator Dr. Cid at this thread at the board states:
After much deliberation on the matter of the above [ex]user's membership, the moderating team has unanimously concluded that an indefinite ban is in order. For evident reasons, his threads have all been removed from public viewing, and his profile has been wiped.
We apologise for any offence caused by Tedius, and hope members will continue to post throughout the forum without concern for ridicule.

I really miss FinalFantasyForums.net. I am very sorry for inadvertently offending them. It was not really my fault. VengefulRonin and Sgt Pepper stirred things up to leading me to being banned. They were so intent in exacerbating my problems. They imported material from my message board to FinalFantasyForums.net to lure me into getting banned. I did not really want to offend the staff, posting about gender-sensitive topics like feminism and female fashion, which are the main subjects of this blog. They are nothing but proponents of the New World Order. The reason my opinion may have cause them to hate me is that they were brainwashed by false ideologies. They are narrow-minded authoritarians who want to censor ideas they believe to be objectionable. That is staged objectionability. The word sexist is basically a swear word. Are they going to ever accept me?
The opposing members of FinalFantasyForums.net have no respect for feminine values or the truth about gender politics. They are blinded by political correctness. Feminine values are very important for society. It is the so-called modern influences that have deployed rhetorics of feminism in an attempt to rob women of feminine values and take them up on a vain and narcissistic ego trip. They have that same old feminist view of domestic violence.
Society has been impoverished by this brand of feminism (or women's liberation), since feminism can only succeed in defeminizing women or in transforming them into unrecognizable hybrids, known as butch dykes, which are women who fashion themselves after men. However, humankind has no hybrid. Women are not men. Women are intrinsically different from men. It is the bonding of manhood and womanhood that completes humankind. It is evident that if women lose their femininity, the very essence of being a woman, or if the allure of the female sex is gone, then women are can no longer what God dubbed "the special genius" of women, to bring forth to society values that civilize culture and shape people's lives. The disastrous consequences of gender identity crisis in women affect every aspect in life. Feminine values are the most palpable in modern societies, and hence, societies are worse off with this brand of women's liberation. Nevertheless, the implementation of feminism, especially by legal force, can only lead to societal collapse and eventually the end of mankind.
Feminism is learned, not inborn. It is taught in public colleges and universities. Far too many young females have been brainwashed to believe this deceptive, devastating, and destructive ideology. Feminists have a extremely negative perception of male sexuality. They have the tendency to criminalize normal heterosexual men. Feminism is a false ideology that has instigated false doctrine in the churches and seduced many Christians. It has exacerbated the very problem it sought to resolve. Mary Kassian, co-author of The Feminist Mistake: The Radical Impact of Feminism on Church and Culture", wrote: "Instead of promoting healthy self-identity for women or contributing to a greater harmony between the sexes, it has resulted in increased gender confusion, increased conflict, and a profound destruction of morality and family. It has left in its wake a mass of dysfunctional relationships and shattered lives. People of this culture no longer know what it means to be a man or a woman or how to make life work."
Victory of feminism translates into a combination of fear, disorder, and tyranny originating from the United States throughout the world, from the most intimate relationships to high culture and worldwide politics. Feminism translates into fear, suspicion, and hostility where mutual reliance is absolutely necessary, and into growing deception, heartlessness, and everyday brutality. It translates into confusion and misery for young people, thus robbing them of stable family life and and concrete ideals of adulthood. It translates into the end of local and popular institutions by more powerful and irresponsible bureaucracies. Feminism is a destructive social movement based on lies, fear, false allegations, dishonest statistics, and intentional misapprehension of mankind. It presents itself as a proponent of equal opportunity, but in reality it is a proponent of female privilege. Anything feminist say is far-left socialist propaganda.
The FinalFantasyForums.net doctrine is based on the radical feminist doctrine. It teaches that women are free to get away with murdering men and children. It teaches that parents should teach boys that respect is a one-way street. It teaches that males have to respect females but not vice versa. It teaches that women are unaccountable for their actions, and that it is okay for women to kill men and children and go scott-free. That is preposterous!
Feminism is one of the most devastating, debilitating, deceptive, and destructive social movements of our time. The true feminist agenda is horrifying and Satanic. Feminism is an ancient heresy that is designed to destroy God's design. It actually started in the Garden of Eden. Eve, the original feminist, usurped the position that belonged to Adam and thought she could act independent from Adam and drove the human race into sin. This was the first act of feminism ever.
Finally, feminism has no chance of victory, because it undermines any stable and productive ordering of human life. It undermines reproduction and childrearing and jeopardizes long-term social survival. It has done tremendous damage and will do further damage on a grander scale before it destroys itself.
I have accused FinalFantasyForums.net of:
- Feministing
- Feminist blackmail (or shaming language)
- Banning me with the intent to force lies on me
- Teaching and enforcing false ideologies
- Scapegoating the male sex
- Luring males into trouble
- Teaching that women can get away with murder
- Teaching a one-sided view on (domestic) violence
- Lobbying to allow women to financially exploit men
- Teaching that women can get away with murder
- Supporting and promoting laws based on lies and dishonest statistics
FinalFantasyForums.net is the worst message board that I have even banned from! It is neither a democracy nor a benevolent dictatorship; it is a feminist police state! However, my ban on from that board is not worth contesting. The staff, the administrators, and moderators and the "offended" members are too politically correct for me to get along with. They support and enforce an ideology with a gendered name that claims to stand for gender equality but, in reality, is a political activist movement based on false premises and a misandristic belief system which, in its worst forms, denies and quarrels with reality, suppresses men's and women's choices, burdens the government, curtails and tramples liberty, hurts and villifies men, corrupts and infantilizes women, puts children at risk, and fosters animosity between the genders.
The moral of this post is: You must not force ideologies based on false notions or dishonest statistics or put gender equality ahead of freedom of speech.
A society that puts equality—in the sense of equality outcome—ahead of freedom will end up with neither equality, nor freedom. The use of force to achieve equality will destroy freedom, and the force, introduced for good purposes, will end up in the hands of the people who use it to promote their own interests. On the other hand, a scoiety that puts freedom first will, as a happy by-product, end up with both greater freedom and greater equality.—Milton Friedman
