So who do you hate worse? Yamada, or Sato?
Oh, and about the HPA. It could be because they were all so used to the old HPA from 20-23 with the lowered rope. In 24 they raised it back to how it was in 19, making it much harder.
And I thought Higuchi was gone?

Maybe, but iirc I don't remember the rope turning people around in 20-22 (23 you could see this with Kanno and Yuuji) so that they HAD to go back or try to blindly land on the platform. Maybe the rope or path it takes was changed?

posting my comment here too, since it still is painful to talk about it, and there likely is gonna ba a "What was your reaction when..." topic. my God that was so painful... I was really worried about the trampoline jump.Heputs up his legs so fast he could easily fall backwards if he misses it with his hands. He made it..ok, no problems..and then just a couple seconds later...I see him falling down.The first time I had a WTF? moment...then they showed it the second time from a different angle and I went "no..." but still so wtfed I couldn't realize...then the third time, and I went "NO!NO!NOOOOO!NO!no..." I would have screamed if I only could .My parents after 23 threatened to shut down internet if I had heart attack-like reactions...so I just started to rip hair off my head while trying not to scream...and cried...I simply couldn't believe it.I SO wanted him to achieve Kanzenseiha...after 18, the Shin-cliffhanger...21, the Grinding Ring...23, the Slider Jump (in my opinion, the double first stage run affected his final stage run)...and poor Takeda...poor Asami... I kept ripping off hair and crying until I heard my grandparents coming. If they saw me like that, THEY would have had a heart attack, so I ran to the bathroom and stayed there some minutes to recover and wash my face. That was one of the worst experiences in my life. I hope he recovered better than me. And Arsenette...this must be a world record!Or at least your personal record

Personal record After doing this for almost 2 years now I'm starting to get a rhythm for things.. provided my health hangs in there. Even simple things like doing all screencaps for a few blogs first.. or uploading all pictures first (multiple blogs) so all I do is comment on it while I have a train of thought going.. that sort of thing. Bada I don't like Sato at all. Yamada I get frustrated with but don't "hate" him. If he ever made it in stage 1 I'd be shocked but I'd cheer because he undeniably trains for this show (at the detriment to other real life things and that's the part I can't stand about him)... Sato is in it for face time and that I despise. No one beats Yukio Iketani in my book though.. I'm happy he's seldom there and quite frankly I can deal with a 20 tourney break again.. Higuchi will never be gone. Ever. This is still his show, his company, his reputation on the line. Besides.. he was clearly producer for Sasuke 24: www.tbs.co.jp/program/sasukesp_20100101.html And though other names might be there hopscotching around.. Higuchi will still get his seat there in that booth. Sasuke is a very small organization and the top never ever will change. Especially for an important show as New Year's Day programing going up against the heavyweights.

LMAO I love Yuuji's expression when Nagano fails. Priceless. Someone should make a demotivator. Okay, now I will continue reading in reverse order; just finished part 9.

special request to rambling rican: 1. Do include pics of Kongu's daughter. I am in love with her. . From your link on "moe slang": "Scott Von Schilling sees moe in this sense as being indicative of men in their thirties "longing for fatherhood"." Wow, the truth hurts. 2. It is nice to see Okuyama's & Kongu's family cheering each other on. Heart-warming friendship between their wives & kids. 3. Felt sorry for Okuyama's son though. ;D Ube:- "Thanks son. You get no allowance. For all eternity". 4. On the bright side, Takeda's "failure" is a record 13th 3rd stage appearance. I can't speak for the other guys, but i wish i can "fail" like this. 5. *Spoiler*: when Urushihara won, the UNCLI guys went CRAZY! Those guys really rock! Ryo threw off the card & jumped like a bunny!lol

what i call the "clown-walk" - Arsenette calls it swaggering. I feel he looks more like a funny clown than a real swagger. ;D

I saw, but which part do you mean? Using the demotivator about Nagano's Slider Jump or saying "Theres a reason we're called Sasuke Maniacs" EDIT: Also. 5700th post Dang, so it was YOU! That quote often crossed my mind but I couldn't remember who said it. Finally! Ok, I borrowed you twice so far. Will keep counting them, it feels like it will be fun lol. And...congrats on 5700th post

Actually I was incorrect on Matsuda's home. THIS - userimg.teacup.com/userimg/8618.teacup.com/ekusas/img/bbs/0002015.jpgIt's Matsuda's. I mixed it up because I wasn't paying attention. I'm not sure which of the former STQ'ers it is but it's been a place that's been used a lot in blogs, etc. dealing with the STQ'ers for a while now they are all mixing in my head. LOL Fine Rider you complain when I actually give you cred? LMFAO LOL Clownwalk™ awee I like that Though it is a swagger.. well.. at least for him.. he can get pretty cocky when he knows he's good... even if it does look a bit funny to us

I thought that was at Keita's house considering all his videos are of there XD I'm not complaining I'm getting credit XD I'm just noticing how many recurring jokes I have here.. XD

Nope that's Matsuda's ... it's just that Keita has no issues being on them for video purposes Matsuda doesn't like testing out stuff with video cameras rolling .. LOL

I actually went back and asked (oh lemme cut and post the same message I just posted in a different thread). WOW I was so wrong.. The last few posts on the board I check UNCLI stuff made me realize that I was wrong in who's backyard was who's. Seems I was incorrect on that back yard. I wrote to Nagasawa and he confirmed my error.. that IS Tomino's back yard... NOT Matsuda.. also explains alot about the latest posts. He has spoken about #1 for a while but he was ranting about himself and yes he (Keita #4) built it in his backyard. So THIS backyard I was talking about might be Matsuda's after all (the one in the Sasuke 24 video with the guys training in cold water). Thanks Rider P.S. Goign to be out most of the weekend so I'll be hit or miss on when I get Stage 3 up. Started screencapping it last night and was emotionally spent.. yes yes.. laugh at me later.. but I couldn't stop crying on a few parts.. so I'll finish breaking them into sections then uploading the blogs. I was going to try to shove 2 people per blog but I had too many pics and decided I'll give each 7 their own page. Will condense the rest of it though.
