Day 15: Slow down the world |

|
|
I am making it my mission in life to slow down the world because I barely have enough time to do what I want. Of course I'll speed it back up to normal while I'm at work. ;D
Today's GPP involves shopping at the mall. I hope you'll be able to drag Paula away.
Place your order here

I actually have content! |

Earthbound Battler (part 1+2) is Earthbound, Space Invaders clone style! Features:
* 16+ Earthbound themed levels following the storyline!
* Play as the Chosen Four as you unlock them through the storyline!
* Earthbound enemies!
* PSI powers!
This version goes up to part 2 which is near the end of Threed (after you get smaaaaaaashed and left in that cave) and a couple of Winters levels after that in part 2. So you cannot play as Poo in this version, until I make a later one. Thanks for DarkLink570 for hosting! One final note: If you are using WinXP disable the stickykeys shortcut.

New FanMusic! |

|
|
 The OneUp Mushrooms have submitted a remixed version of the Summers theme. Its pretty good! The link to the song is here
Be sure to check it out. Its not too often that a video game band covers Earthbound songs!
Also, if you have made an original EarthBound song, don't be afraid to Send it my way so I can put it in the Fan Music section.

Links Update |

|
|
I've got three announcements. So, numero uno is updated sites: Giygas.net (10) Saturn Roadside (6) EarthBound Fanfiction Reviews (3) Earthbound: UNLEASHED (1) General Duke's World of Earthbound (1) 2015: A Starmen.net Story
Remember to read over the Links Guideline when submitting links, or your site will not be included in the section.
 Announcement numero dos is a NEW Site Spotlight! This award goes to Eagleland News Central, a website unlike other Earthbound sites (which is always a relief). ENC is dedicated to the literary aspects of contributing to the Earthbound series, and gives fans the opportunity to write in articles and pieces that allow others to view the characters in the game on a more personal level. There's even a point system set up to get people a little more motivated with it, so go check it out! Because being able to find things that put a new twist on the old game is always a sweet thing.
 Annoucement numero tres is a reminder to the art scene people who have (or are interested in) an account on DeviantArt, because there is an Earthbound community on there that you might be interested in checking out at http://urfbownd.deviantart.com.

Smart Auctions |

|
|
See anything you would like to bid on? Great! But before you bid...
Check out all the Auctions.
Before bidding on an item, make sure you check to see if there are other similar items listed. You may find the same item in better condition, or even cheaper. Sounds like a simple idea, but its the most over looked. Don't get all jumpy on bidding right away. Always look around first.

Late Night Update! |

|
|
I had a hard day today. My mom forced me to help her do stuff for her school today, and I am now just getting the chance to update Theories. I have to say that I was very pleased. Although I expected a great entry from Gonmon, I wasn't expecting so many great entries from everyone. Thanks!

So I forgot to announce an update. So sue me. Trivia was updated yesterday. EBMaster and JeffMan won.
(P.S. "So sue me." was for dramatic effect. Don't actually sue me.)

Day 11: Art of the Sporadic Update |

|
|
It's fun being sporadic with my updates, but that's what I get for sleeping in late most of the time. ;P
Today's GPP involves being covered in puke thanks to Master Belch and then getting into some deep funk with the Trillionage Sprout. Can you survive this dirty situation and come out clean? Well don't ask me. Find out for yourselves.
Visit the exotic Saturn Hot Springs today!!!

IT'S BACK |

|
|
This is the kind of fun, article-filled update I remember from back in the day! IT'S BACK, and SO AM I! I have returned from Camp and my vacation. Leadership camp was EXCELLENT! Go OASC! Anyway, I'm super excited to see all these articles, and I hope that we can have some more uber updates like this. I remember when I'd get 10+ articles a week! Let's get back the good times. Today, we have a super-tastic article from Fishsticks...Really lovin' his series of articles right now. We have 2 articles from my article staffer preceder, EBFan2000. PSI Stuff Rho is a new comer to the article section, but I already love him! The title of his article, is very intriguing. Check it out. And lastly, we have a theory that AoE recieved. He thought it would make a good article, so he sent it to me! That's freakin' teamwork! The Staffer connection! Blast From the PastThis weeks blast from the past was chosen randomly by my friend Kyle. "I just picked. My computer is messed up, so I can't keep multiple windows open for a long time." Classic. Remember, articles are full of nutrients and goody-goodness. Write me one, or two, or three! articles@starmen.net
