Southampton: Should the Saints Goal Drought Be a Cause for Concern?September 19, 2013
After back-to-back games without a goal, there are some concerns about Southampton's attacking prowess.
The Saints have only scored two goals in four matches—and both of those came from set pieces, not open play.
Rickie Lambert and Jose Fonte are the only Southampton players to have placed their names on the scoresheet so far.
But is the drought indicative of bad form or bad luck? The statistics may indicate the latter.
Southampton have been better at keeping possession of the ball this season. Last season, they had possession of the ball 52.5 percent of the time and completed 77.7 percent of their passes.
In the four games the Saints have played this season, they have increased those numbers to 59.1 percent of possession and 78.7 percent pass accuracy.
Last season Southampton averaged 1.29 goals per match (49 in 38 games). The Saints averaged 13.6 shots per game, 4.4 of which were on target.
Roughly 32 percent of Southampton shots were hitting their target. That means opposition goalkeepers were forced to make 3.11 saves per match.
This season the Saints are attempting fewer shots—12.8 per match—of which 4.0 per game are on target. The Saints' accuracy isn't much different, with 31 percent of shots on frame.
With Southampton only scoring 0.5 goals per match, goalkeepers are actually doing a better job against Mauricio Pochettino's men, saving 3.5 shots per match.
That was well evident in last week's match against West Ham United. Jussi Jaaskelainen made two key saves in a man-of-the-match performance to preserve a 0-0 draw in a match that Southampton probably should have won 2-0.
A bit of bad luck may be shown by the amount of times the Saints have hit the woodwork. Last season, Southampton hit the post or crossbar a total of 11 times, according to Squawka.com.
This season, the Saints have already hit the post on two occasions, including Lambert's rocket header last week against West Ham.
So while Southampton are creating slightly fewer chances per match this season, it seems like the football gods aren't 100 percent in the Saints' corner at the moment.
With a little patience and more time for the team to gel, Southampton should return to last season's goal-scoring rate in the near future.

Under Byen are set to show down on the North American subcontinent for the first time ever, with a whole bunch of March tour dates that include a stop at Austin's South By South west Music Festival. They'll also hit the Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh on March 9th.
The music is dark, but ambient-pop at the same time. It tends not to dwell on darkness, just an occasional spacey glance toward the dark mysterious side while meditating over pop rythyms. David Byrne said "The mood is one of beautiful desolation and melancholy." You should listen to what Mr. Byrne says.
Most of the dates will include Swedish dark pop sensation Frida Hyvönen.

A 41 year old Banbridge man who made a "very frank admission" to police, has been banned from driving and fined at the local court.
Stephen Whiteside from Chinauley Park appeared at last week's local court pleading guilty to charges of being an unaccompanied 'l' driver, no insurance, no 'l' plates and failing to inform DVA of change of keeper.
He was disqualified for three months and fined a total of £200. He also had to pay an offender's levy of £15.
Whiteside was stopped by police on the Castlewellan Road on 7 May. Checks on the insurance revealed the BMW was registered to another male and that Whiteside only held a provisional licence.
He made full admissions to the other offences and told police that the car was mot'd and taxed in another man's name as he would be less likely to be stopped by police.
A solicitor explained that her client worked as a store manager for a motorparts centre in Castlewellan.
She said prior to this job, he had been unemployed for eight months.
She explained how there was no direct bus service to Castlewellan.
"He purchased the car a year previously with the intention of doing his test. He sat his theory on 1 March and when he got the job he used the vehicle prior to completing his test. He realises it was foolish and irresponsible and he apologises."
The solicitor explained that since the incident Whiteside has been using taxis at a cost of £100 per week as the car has since been seized and destroyed.
He was given eight weeks to pay the fines.

|Subject: Thanks Miriam!
|Date: 10/2/2012 1:02 AM
|Author: gdett2
|Number: 2868 of 2902
Who would have thought we might owe our thanks to Miriam? Not me.
Miriam was the little storm that could. She didn't have a big impact in Baja California, at least based upon the non-reports about it. I do not even know if she did make landfall. The last reports I heard said she was going to turn west.
But she did send a tremendous upper-level stream of moisture from the Pacific, across old Mexico and into our skies. Combine that with a surface flow from the Gulf of Mexico and a weak cold front from up yonder and we finally got some rain!
Our 3 day numbers are: .23, 4.42 and .72 for 5.37 inches of wet stuff. No lightning. No fires. Just rain.
October 1st was the end of our 24th straight month in severe, extreme or exceptional drought.
We drove around the place this morning and we were amazed at what we didn't see. Puddles. No water pooling in the low spots. They were muddy and some were wet enough to still have a shine on the surface, but no standing water.
Our largest tank will normally raise 5 to 8 feet when we get around 3 or 4 inches of rain. It is up about 18 inches. This tank has about 250 to 300 acres that drain to it.
A small tank in the north side of the mountain normally fills with 2 to 3 inches because the ground is steep above it. It has 2 feet in it(from dry and cracked). It is still soaking up water because the cracks around the edge have not swollen shut yet.
After watching all that rain come down, I am stunned by how much was taken directly into the ground and did not run off. And this isn't flat ground. From the house to the large tank is about 1/2 mile and the drop is around 85 feet.
Well, I am just glad we finally had a rain to start getting ahead of this drought. We are in better shape vs last year, 40 days vs 81 days over 100. More rain than last year. I am putting some wheat in this month. First seed in the ground since April 2010.

Brazil's currency, the real, and other exchange rates across Latin America were little changed though, as investors awaited an upcoming interest rate decision in the United States. Brazil's Bovespa stock index outperformed the broader MSCI Latin American stock index on signs Vice President Michel Temer would implement a more market-friendly economic policy if he replaces President Dilma Rousseff in coming weeks, as expected. Rousseff is widely expected to be suspended from office and be put on trial for allegedly breaking budget laws. Sources close to Temer told Reuters he would replace the board of the central bank and that of state-run lenders as part of a drive to regain investors' confidence. Shares of state-run oil producer Petroleo Brasileiro SA rose more than 3 percent to an eight-month high, while shares of state-run lender Banco do Brasil SA gained more than 2 percent. Quarterly earnings reports also drove up shares in Brazil and Mexico. Shares of Wal-Mart's Mexican subsidiary gained 7 percent after net income rose 30 percent in the first quarter, above forecasts, while shares of Banco Santander Brasil SA gained more than 4 percent after increased loan renegotiations helped it beat profit expectations. Shares of Fibria SA, the world's largest producer of eucalyptus pulp, bucket the trend and fell 3 percent. A stronger dollar helped the company return to profit in the first quarter, but an increase in costs and a decline in volumes disappointed investors, according to a research note by BTG Pactual.

Waldo Griffiths, a World war veteran, who has succeeded his father in the contracting business in Utica, is now at the head of the corporation known as Waldo Griffiths, Incorporated. He was born in Utica, Oneida county, New York, on the 1st of April, 1889, and is the only surviving son of Griffith and Mary (Davis) Griffiths, both of whom are deceased. Extended mention of the father is made on another page of this work.
On the completion of a public school course Waldo Griffiths became connected with the contracting and building business in the service of the firm of Griffiths & Pierce, of which his father was the senior member. Parental influence was not exerted, however, to win him an easy berth. By dint of energy, close application and untiring industry he worked his way steadily upward from minor positions to places of greater responsibility and importance. When the firm of Griffiths & Pierce was incorporated in 1914, Waldo Griffiths was elected vice president of the company. During the years of his preparation for executive control of the business he had become a skilled bricklayer and was thus familiar with the practical phase of the work as well as with the duties of management. He was made treasurer of the company upon the death of his father in 1919, while three years later he purchased the entire outstanding interest and reincorporated the enterprise as Waldo Griffiths, Incorporated. Since that time he has been awarded the contract for and has built the new pavilion at Faxton Hospital, the Genesee-Hopper Realty building, the Biology and Geology building of Hamilton College, Clinton, New York; the Infirmary of the Eastern Star, at Oriskany; the Children's Infirmary for the Home of the Good Shepherd, and a number of high-class residences. His continued success is assured, for he is a young man of excellent business ability, sound judgment and keen discrimination. He is a director of Hotel Utica and has other important business interests.
On the 14th of October, 1914, Mr. Griffiths was married to Miss Edith Hethrington Brayton, daughter of Omar and Olive Delia (Countryman) Brayton. Mr and Mrs. Griffiths have two daughters; Edith Hethrington and Dorothy Marion. The family home is at New Hartford, New York.
The military record of Mr. Griffiths covers service in the World war. He sailed for France on the 27th of July, 1918, participated in the St. Mihiel drive in the following September and was subsequently with the Army of Occupation on the Rhine. He is a member of the American Legion and fraternally is identified with the Masons, belonging to Oriental Lodge, F. & A. M.; Oneida Chapter, R. A. M.; Mohawk Consistory, A. & A. S. R.; and Ziyara Temple, A. A. O. N. M. S. Appreciative of the social amenities of life, he has joined the Yahnundasis Golf Club, the Utica Curling Club, the True Ivorites and the Cymreigyddion Society. He is also a consistent member of Plymouth church, in which he succeeded his father as a trustee. In politics he is a democrat. His many friends attest his sterling characteristics, while his native city of Utica accounts him one of her prominent young business men and progressive and public-spirited citizens.

CCAAT/enhancer binding proteins (C/EBPs) are a family of transcription factors that all contain a highly conserved, basic-leucine zipper domain at the C-terminus that is involved in dimerization and DNA binding. At least six members of the family have been isolated and characterized to date (C/EBPα—C/EBPζ), with further diversity produced by the generation of different sized polypeptides, predominantly by differential use of translation initiation sites, and extensive protein—protein interactions both within the family and with other transcription factors. The function of the C/EBPs has recently been investigated by a number of approaches, including studies on mice that lack specific members, and has identified pivotal roles of the family in the control of cellular proliferation and differentiation, metabolism, inflammation and numerous other responses, particularly in hepatocytes, adipocytes and haematopoietic cells. The expression of the C/EBPs is regulated at multiple levels during several physiological and pathophysiological conditions through the action of a range of factors, including hormones, mitogens, cytokines, nutrients and certain toxins. The mechanisms through which the C/EBP members are regulated during such conditions have also been the focus of several recent studies and have revealed an immense complexity with the potential existence of cell/tissue- and species-specific differences. This review deals with the structure, biological function and the regulation of the C/EBP family.

(13:10:47) Xentac: (BTW, this is all on the Unsupported side, the AUR repo has the CVS and an actual pacman repo behind it)
(13:10:47) Xentac: if someone else wants to modify it they have a couple of options
(13:10:47) Xentac: upload a version with a different name x-phrakture or x-nosuck
(13:10:47) Xentac: get the original uploader to fix it by leaving comments and/or emailing them
(13:10:47) Xentac: or get a TU to delete the package so they can upload a better one
(13:10:47) Xentac: to answer sweiss, the original uploader has total control of their package
(13:10:47) Xentac: they just upload over it
(13:10:47) Xentac: sorry, they have total control over it until a TU adopts it
(13:10:47) Xentac: then it's the TU's, not the original contributors
(13:10:47) Xentac: and you can tell them that they can ask these questions on the tur-users list
(13:10:47) Xentac: that's where we all hang out
(13:10:47) Xentac: or something
(13:10:47) Xentac: to better answer your AUR/Unsupported question, AUR is replacing TUR
(13:10:47) Xentac: Unsupported in replacing incoming
(13:10:47) Xentac: so Unsupported isn't a pacman repo
(13:10:47) Xentac: it's just a better interface to a bunch of PKGBUILDs and extra files
I think we've all been answered. Also, screw the forum, the AUR gods hang out on the tur mailing list. 8)
I don't understand the difference between uploading a package and "accessing the repo" via CVS. Could this be explained to me? Is the CVS version for TUs only?
As I understand it only TUs can use CVS, and the rest of us can only commit packages using the webinterface.
Finally, does AUR now contain ALL packages that were originally in the TURs, and therefore I can remove TUR repositories from my pacman.conf and add community and unsupported in their place?
Eventually, yes. Take a look at the TUR-mailinglist archive for more info.]]>
Also, what are the definitions of community and unsupported repositories; what's the difference, etc?
Finally, does AUR now contain ALL packages that were originally in the TURs, and therefore I can remove TUR repositories from my pacman.conf and add community and unsupported in their place?
* What happens when a certain package sucks?
i.e. joe_schmoe uploaded some-package-1.1-1, yet anyone can tell he screwed it up royally - it should have had a "conflicts" package, some-package is already up to version 2.3, and it should have had a post_remove function. What if I want get rid of his crappy package and replace it with a better one?
* What happens when the original uploader just doesn't care? can anyone upload a new version of the package?]]>

It's always good playing in that first preseason game, you want to get out there. You want to get your feet wet. Being in practice and being in a game is a totally different feel. You want to get out there and get some live action. You want to let the shoulder pads pop a little bit, and you just want to fly around to get your legs back under you. That's what you want to do in your first game and I think we did that.
We gave up a play that was about 52 yards, but it was a routine defense we were in. It was just a mistake in the back end, we just have to be disciplined in what we do. They still only got three points out of that drive. Like coach Vic Fangio says all the time "They are not in until they are in." It doesn't matter if a team gets 600 yards on you if they only have seven-to-10 points. We don't want to give up that many yards, but we understand that red-zone defense is what helps you win football games in the National Football League. We held them to a field goal on that drive, but we just can't give up that big play.
It is a lot of fun seeing the younger guys get out there. They come in, a lot of them have dreams of playing in the NFL, they get here and they don't know what to expect. Then they get out on the football field and you see a lot of them have huge eyes. They don't know what the speed of the game is going to be like when they get out there in live action. Then to actually hear them when they get out on the sideline and understand it's not too different from college. It is faster. It does kick up a notch in the regular season, but right now it's not too much faster than what it is in college.
It just brings back memories of me being a rookie having to play on all the special teams and having to take the majority of the snaps in the preseason. I actually know what they are going through. It is an exciting time, but it's also a time filled with a lot of anxiety. Most of, if not all, our rookies really handled it well.
We sit together in the meetings. I am helping him with everything he has questions on because I know as a rookie things are moving so fast out there. There are so many checks and so many defenses, primary calls, secondary calls. Just being a vocal guy back there as a rookie is tough, but he's picking it up well, he is moving well, he is in the right spots and he is not making mental errors. That's all you can ask from a rookie right now is to not make errors, know what you are doing and give us maximum effort. That's what he is doing.
The rookies are going to hook us up with some flight food on our way to Houston this weekend. We have a couple of rookies in our room now. It is a big thing. The only thing he has done so far is get us some snacks that we keep in our meeting rooms. Whatever our guys put on the list, the rookies have to go out and get it. He does a good job keeping us stocked up in there. Other than him and Mike Thomas bringing helmets and shoulder pads out to practice, we haven't really done anything to them. They can understand that one of these nights we are going to go out to dinner. We are not going to kill them, but we are going to spend a little bit of money.
The team is very excited for this trip. Any time you go on the road to a different city it's always fun. It's just you, the organization and everybody that travels against that state and against that organization. It's almost like an us against the world type of thing.
We're going to be able to test ourselves. Last year in the preseason they were able to move the ball a little bit against us and you know they have a top-5 offense in the National Football League again. They have a running game with a zone scheme, they'll run a lot of play-action and boot-actions off of that, they have a good tight end in Owen Daniels and Andre Johnson. They have a good offense.
Even last year when they went into the playoffs against the Baltimore Ravens, they almost won that game with a backup quarterback. You know they have a good scheme and you know they're well-coached, so it's going to be good test for us to go on the road and see what we can do.
We're looking forward to it. It's going to be a good offense versus a good defense and then the young guys get to come in to play. Even though wins in the preseason don't necessarily translate to wins in the regular season, we still want to get out of there with a 'W'. It always feels better when you win.

Chicago Sun-Times
"Mosher's blend of quirky characters, contemporary mythology, and mischievous prose is utterly original and entertaining." Ron Franscell
Hartford Courant
"Along the way, he does a nice job of developing believable, quirky characters and throwing in just enough plot twists to keep the reader guessing. And his love for his native state and its physical beauty comes through in his descriptions of the Vermont countryside and wildlife." Steven Goode
Boston Globe
[Mark] Twain's ghost, wreathed in cigar smoke, hangs over E. A.'s story—as it does over most fictional accounts of an American boyhood. … To my surprise and delight, while reading Waiting for Teddy Williams I was caught up in a particular kind of literary pleasure I hadn't known in some 40 years." Brad Leithauser
Providence Journal
"Mosher creates wonderfully quirky, but definitely recognizable, characters. … The story is full of realistic tidbits about the current state of baseball." Kristin Latina
Rocky Mountain News
"The novel goes intermittently off course, leaving the most essential character feeling flat and incomplete. … Writing about genuine motives and courageous characters, Mosher delivers a healthy but occasionally lackluster American coming-of-age story." Amy Stoll
Washington Post
"The novel devolves into an unwieldy farrago that resembles a Southern gothic … awkwardly joined with Angels in the Outfield and Major League. Its story moves swiftly and has a certain sweetness, but the characters and plot are exasperatingly predictable, like a pitcher who telegraphs his curveball." Matt Schudel
Critical Summary
Do you have to be a baseball fan to enjoy Howard Mosher's quirky tribute? Well, no. But it will help you appreciate all the knucklers and sliders. Overall, Mosher has written a lovely and timeless, if at times slight and predictable, sports fable. Several critics say it ranks with the very best in baseball literature. Plus, the oddball denizens of rural New England make wonderful background characters, even if critics disagree about the fullness of the major ones. "Like The Adventures of Tom Sawyer … Mosher's novel becomes something of a fairy tale," writes The Boston Globe.

HERSHEY, Pa. (AP) — Big Ten schools including Penn State are banding together on cancer research.
The universities formally started the Big Ten Cancer Research Consortium this month in Chicago. Researchers say the consortium's activities will benefit patients because researchers will work together to turn ideas into new potential treatments.
They say the partnership is a powerful collaboration because of the impact each university has already made in cancer research.
Penn State Hershey Cancer Institute is part of the consortium. The institute describes itself as having special research emphasis on cancer-producing behaviors more prevalent in an underserved rural population.

"WASHINGTON, DC -- Forty-five areas across the country are not meeting the latest government standards for ground-level ozone or smog, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency said Tuesday."
"In 2008, EPA set a new smog standard at 75 parts per billion measured over eight hours, tightening the standard from the 80 parts per billion set in 1997.
'Reflecting ongoing improvements in air quality,' EPA says it is identifying fewer areas that do not meet the 2008 standards than the agency identified as failing to meet the 1997 standards.
Following a change in standards, EPA works with states and tribes to identify areas that fail to meet the standards and establish plans to improve air quality.
Smog is created when emissions from vehicles, power plants, refineries and other factories mix in the presence of sunlight and heat. "

FishbowlDC has learned that CourtTV is closing their DC Bureau. No word yet on future plans for lead correspondent Savannah Guthrie.
We hear that the decision to close the bureau stems from Court TV's new ownership, Turner, which is moving the network in a different direction. Court TV will have a new name ("Tru tv") starting in January and the emphasis is away from news. In addition, CourtTV likely realized that there were very few cases in D.C. of interest to Court TV viewers (the Scooter Libby trial was a notable exception).

It may be hard to believe but 95% of Americans who trade stock options lose money more often than they make money.
Oyster Bay, New York (PRWEB) May 14, 2013
Author, investor, and entrepreneur, Dr. Harsimran Singh, is pleased to announce the release of his newest book, 'Stock Options-Work ½ Hour a Day'.
It may be hard to believe but 95% of Americans who trade stock options lose money more often than they make money. Dr. Singh feels that one of the main reasons for people losing money is because they get their advice from advisers who are ill-informed. In his words, "They are like swimming instructors who teach people how to swim without ever going in the water themselves."
For Dr. Singh, it is much different. He has jumped into the deepest of waters, having traded more than $100 million in his personal account in the stock market. Throughout this experience, Dr. Singh has tried many different strategies to find which ones work best. Acquiring this knowledge cost him millions of dollars. But now, in his book, 'Stock Options-Work ½ Hour a Day', Dr. Singh offers you his valuable knowledge and experience for the mere price of a book.
Over the course of Dr. Singh's experience in trading, he has been shocked to discover that most brokerage houses discourage people from trading options. But in this book, Dr. Singh encourages people to trade, as he has analyzed different strategies for bull, bear, and neutral markets and relayed his successful strategies.
The readers of this book should expect to find direct, simple-to-follow strategies on how to trade in the stock market that Dr. Singh has been profitable with. However, the stock market is always a gamble and must be experimented with on spare money. As one becomes more familiar with the market, they will begin to recognize trends and that may increase their success in profiting from their investments.
About Dr. Harsimran Singh
Harsimran Singh, Ph.D., migrated from India to the United States in 1973 and is now a US Citizen. He neither had, nor was he allowed to take, more than $8 from his birth country. Over his time in the United States, Dr. Singh has risen to the top 1% of Americans in terms of financial wealth.
His guiding light and life's fulfillment has always motivated him to help people with his knowledge and experience. He is the author of eleven books on subjects such as religion, spirituality, finance, stock options, and real estate. Dr. Singh's books are available through http://www.DrSinghBooks.com and Amazon.
Dr. Singh is married to Dr. Satnam Kaur, who is a practicing Anesthesiologist. They are blessed with three children and reside on Long Island, New York. Two of his children are attorneys and third one is acquiring a Masters in Real Estate. They are all involved in real estate investment business.

2.) trees cause cookie-cutter builds and that is one of the prime reasons it was removed. After 8yrs it proved to be a flawed MMORPG design, especially for a game with a community so nerdy they came up with theorycrafting.
3.) The only thing I will agree on is that 10man needs to be buffed; its far too easy and way to attractive now-a-days (look at how 25man's are an endangered species now). But flex is good.... it needs to stay.
4.) double-edged sword here, and WoW has a whole shit storm full of them. Become too distinct (vanilla days) and you become too specialized for the encounter/content to the point you're either desired or shunned(I am sure every holy paladin who's guild did sunwell will agree). Become too generalized and you fix that issue but then lose the specialized needs important for an encounter.
6.) no. it reduces the stress of needing 10,000 of one currency for all upgrades when you could only need 2,500 badges, 4000 coins, and 1200 of another. Before you say "whats the difference?" understand that the rate you get each currency is different than just a single one. So you could get 2-3 upgrades in one day with multiple coins rather than spend 3 days with just one.

I agree with John. Given the increasing size and influences of CSS, I think introducing a process to prioritize features like this level would help us. I understand CSS is not a product, and putting priorities with a good fairness wouldn't be easy, but we have a risk to bloat without it.

Our debut collection is focused on raising money and spreading awareness to stop gun violence. The issue of gun rights have pervaded American society from our history books to our daily news. And while the right to bear arms is hotly debated by politicians and concerned citizens alike, gun violence continues to run rampant through our communities. Guns are too deeply embedded in our country's culture to simply get rid of, so let's instead revolutionize the way we think about them.
We have thoughtfully crafted a gender-neutral collection of sophisticated streetwear with the perfect fit and jewelry sourced from sustainable materials. Everything is manufactured in New York City.
Fashion against violence
The intention of this collection is to shed new light on the way we see violence. By incorporating powerful imagery showing how gun violence tears at the fabric of society or emotionally evocative phrases into our aesthetic choices, we bring the issue of gun violence to the forefront of our attention, paying tribute to all those lost to gun violence and asking how many more must fall victim to this modern epidemic.

The Dewhurst Stakes, run at Newmarket next month, usually decides the season's top two-year-old but yesterday's National Stakes at The Curragh may well have fulfilled that role. New Approach, the all-the-way winner, is the new favourite for next year's 2,000 Guineas after keeping his unbeaten record intact.
From winning his maiden at the course in July, to victory in this Group One race, New Approach has taken the same route as his former stable companion Teofilo. Jim Bolger, the trainer of these outstanding colts, will be hoping the fates are kinder, having been forced to retire the injured Teofilo without a run this season.
Whereas Teofilo went on to win the Dewhurst, New Approach is unlikely to run at Newmarket. "All the stars were here today and rather than last year when the Dewhurst was the place to be, now The Curragh is the place to be," said Bolger. "There is no need to run in the Dewhurst now, but we'll just have to see how he gets on in the next few weeks."
Five of the last 10 National Stakes winners have gone on to Classic success, including George Washington in 2005, and there was a hint of the latter's mercurial temperament in the behaviour of New Approach, who would not go into the parade ring and had to be saddled on the course. Bolger seemed unfazed by that display, however. "He's very talented and all you have to do is get him in the stalls and he does the rest," he said.
It was difficult to argue with that. Soon at the head of affairs under Kevin Manning, New Approach stretched clear in the final furlong to readily hold the late challenge of Rio De La Plata with Myboycharlie, who may not have stayed the seven furlongs trip, third. New Approach was cut to 7-2, from 8-1, by Coral for the 2,000 Guineas. Ladbrokes go 4-1.
Ron Cox's tip of the day
Tikinheart 2.40 Redcar
Although this colt's form figures do not inspire confidence, there is good reason to believe Tikinheart will get it right on the return to five furlongs here. He ran in a seven-furlongs nursery at this course last time and patently failed to stay the trip after cruising into the lead at half way, fading to finish seventh. Tikinheart had shown ability earlier in the season and off this mark he should go close.

My son has a small ball python (about 2 years old) and a larger (about 5 years old). I did the wrong thing and left the older ball's rat in over night 'cause he was slow to feed. We woke up the next morning and have found several large bites on the small ball's body. These are LARGE bitten areas (about the size of a nickel in about 3 places).
I know I made a mistake, but what now? How do I treat the wounds and what should I consider?

Not really the most important part of the FAQ but still I wanted to let you
guys know a couple of things:
I made this FAQ because I really enjoy this game. I really appreciate the fact
that people read my FAQ. So feel free to email me with suggestions, corrections
and maybe even questions, but not stoopid ones.

This FAQ belongs to me. Do not post it in your website, do not copy and paste,
nor sell it in any ways. If this FAQ is found in your site, you could actually
be sued.
This FAQ is also only and VERY ONLY supposed to be found at the following sites:
- http://www.gamefaqs.com
And that's all about it.
This was heck of a good game. Wonderboy surely evolved since his last
appearance. The faggy kid now uses swords, armors and all that. Like the box
said, "no more cute dolls, fruit or milk".
Now you can gather money, buy equipment, weapons and such. The game playability
became a lot better too. But, to tell the truth to you guys, I never actually
played Wonder Boy in Monsterland in the console. Here's why.
I'm a Brazilian guy (Brazil, South America) and I guess Wonderboy never
actually reached the country. Instead, there was a version of Wonderboy called
"Mônica no Castelo do Dragão", featuring a very popular and famous character
from a brazilian comic. Mônica is her name and this character still makes a lot
of success among kids nowadays. So, you could control her in the game instead
of Wonderboy. I had this cartridge =)
Just some other interesting info: later on something similar happened when they
converted "Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap". The game would then feature nearly
all of Mônica's fellows. I didn't have this game, just Falk's cousin ;(
Anyways, I started to make this FAQ because this game is a lot of fun and I
really appreciate it. It's important to remember that the data herein is useful
for both versions of the game: for Wonderboy as well as Mônica.
Before we get started there are a few good things you should know:
* After most stages there'll be a boss. After you kill it, money will pop out
of the explosion, together with the key that allows you to proceed to the next
stage. Only trouble is, if you get the key first, you'll lose your chance to
get the money since right after you'll appear outside the boss room. So always
make sure you get the cash first.
* Along the game, there are PLENTY of hidden locations where money can be
found. But since it's your lucky day, I've put these locations along the
Walkthrough the best I could and as far as I know them. Hope you enjoy ;)
* Now for the most interesting. In this game, there's a little manaeuver that
allows Wonderboy to scroll through the screen, vertically. When me, my sister
and cousins were kids, we invented it (or maybe discovered it). After we took
knowledge, we immediately named it: its name then became Pyramidal-Strox. I
don't know what the heck was on our minds but this is its name. What's the big
deal? You can reach many difficult places and get out of some difficult
situations in the game once you use it. To perform the Pyramidal-Strox, you
- Press the left + right buttons on the D-Pad and hold.
- once it's done, Wonderboy'll go all spastic turning right and left very
quickly. Still holding the D-Pad, press the jump button. He'll now start
This can be useful to put you at the top of the screen so you can glide to some
place you couldn't reach by jump before. I couldn't explain the results very
well so you should do the Pyramidal to understand better what I'm talking
about. The key sequence is exactly as shown, though. So you shouldn't have
troubles purrforming it.
Be careful to don't take damage while performing the Pyramidal, cos sometimes
your life meter will drop to zero after contact with the enemy or hazards, like
lava. The safest way to take advantage of it is to do it far away from enemies
or, if not possible, take a little damage before. This'll make you invincible
for a few seconds, and that's your chance to get away unscratched.
I sincerely believe this is a glitch no one ever noticed or something like
that, but I don't really care. Me and the other kids already gave a cool name
to it so that's enough for us.

Okay, here the part everyone waited for so long: the Walkthrough! Here you
shall find everything you need to kick ass, impress your friends and the last
but not the least: finish the Dragon!
This FAQ is also known as a "Champion Edition" because it contains very strict
data for you to be able to equip the very best equipments of the game, and for
you to know the best techniques.
Let's get going!
Round 1: Welcome to Monsterland!!
All right, here you are: Monsterland. Let's get things going so you can bust
that meanie Dragon. Okay, first talk to the woman inside the tree stump.
There's a door right at the beginning so there's no way to miss it. She'll give
you your sword (Gradius Sword) and a potion to restore your life points the
moment you fall.
Once you get out, a platform should appear. Step on it and move on to the
right. Kill the red snakes and fall off the ledge. There should be and "Ale or
mead" shop door here, represented by a drinking glass of some sort. I truly
hope you didn't get hit on your way here so don't waste your money in this shop.
There's a yellow snake who needs 3 hits to collapse and another red one ahead.
Right after the red one, an hourglass should appear. Get it and restore your
time. Then enter the door.
The Grim Reapear boss (I guess) is inside. It takes 2 hits to kill him and it
should be no big deal. If you get close to it, it will fly down towards you, so
take care not to get hit. After killing it, get all the coins it releases,
taking care not to touch the key, or else you're out of the room and bye bye
for your cash. Make sure the key is the last thing you get. Jumping above the
key can be pretty fancy now since you ain't got no boots, but it is humanly
Once you get the key, you'll find yourself outside the boss arena, and ready
for more =). Walk right, then bash the yellow snake (3 hits again). If you got
hit don't worry, there's a heart on the rightmost tree. Only one, though. Jump
to get it. Go right, knock the door and... you beat the first round! Easy no?
Money locations:
* On the tree to the left of the woman's stump
* Above the woman's stump. There are 3 coins that you can collect by jumping.
They can be found and caught to the left side of the stump. Like 70% or 80% to
the left... you get the idea.
* Beside the ale or mead shop door. That is, to the left. Walk until you touch
the wall then jump.
Round 2: no titles on the screen...
Okay, this is the second round. It's quite important since there are a few
shops here and you will quite possibly get your sixth heart by beating enemies
and increasing your score.
Go right and beat the mushrooms until you see the boot store. Climb the ladder
and buy the Leather Boots. Ignore the Cloth Boots because you'll waste money on
a weak boot. The more expensive one allows you to run faster and jump higher.
Keep going right and climb the platforms so you can reach the Shield Shop. Buy
the Light Shield. It costs 40G, but if you don't have the cash, keep going
right on the stage and beat some enemies to collect some more gold. Then come
back to the shop once you got the cash. Don't enter the cave because once
you're in you can't get back anymore. Scroll issues I believe.
Sometimes you might not be able to save 40G. In this case, you can either
choose to keep going without the shield, or reset the game, since you didn't
come from this far (which I seriously recommend)
After the shield shop there's a door with an "?". They sell some weapons there.
They suck, so don't waste your money. Go right and beat the snake, then beat
the arrow-throwing thing. It takes 4 hits to kill it. Enter the cave.
By the cave, there are some snakes and bats. They should be no problem. The
bats even give you some extra hearts to restore HP. Keep going until you see a
lava pit and some platforms. By the 3rd, the game will display "Someone be
beyond the door". Press up to knock on the wall, but there actually is a door.
Talk to the woman and she'll give you extra information, as well as a letter to
her friend on Baraboro. Do not even think about leaving without this letter.
Go right until you find a door (visible now, heheh) after a lava pit. Enter it
and you'll have to beat a monster that throws some nasty fire balls. Evade its
attacks and once it flies towards you, hit it with your sword. It takes about 3
hits to kill him. Once he's dead, he'll give you a more powerful sword, the
"Broad Sword". Go right and leave the cave.
Head right and DON'T FALL on the lava pit. To the rightmost part of the new
area, you should see a Boot Shop and a Hospital. You've got nothing to do at
the boot shop and you really, really shouldn't need the hospital at this early
part of the game.
Anyways, make your way to the up-and-down-red-platform (I should work on its
name a bit, no?) then climb the ladder. To the right there will be a steady
platform where you'll see another hourglass. Get it and keep going right.
There'll be a left-and-right-red-small-platform (whoa man...) so take care NOT
to fall all the stage down! After that, kill the arrow guy and enter the door
you've seen. This is the boss arena.
He's a giant jumping mushroom who throws many smaller mushrooms. A little
tougher to get, but still easy. Repeat the scheme to get the money BEFORE the
key. Once you're out, go right, knock the door and wave to the crowd: you made
it through the second round!!
Money locations:
* By the boot shop, there are 2 division lines between one building and
another: one to the left and one to the right. (RELATIVE TO THE BOOT SHOP
DOOR). Jump by the one to the right to get a coin. Pretty fancy to get, but it
is there, I swear.
* Go up the platforms by the Shield Shop and once you reach the highest, go
left and jump left in the direction of the little cloud you should see here.
* Still on the platforms, go right and jump right aligning yourself by the
division line to your right. At the correct jump height you should be able to
get the money bag. Try get as high as the roof.
* By the second cactus on the little desert. Yeah, the one near the
arrow-throwing guy.
* Above the sword-giving monster's house, inside the cave. Well, it's a little
more to the left. If you divide the house's width in 4, and count one, and two
quarters from left to right, this is it. Once you get in position the coins
will pop up.
* On the first step of the stairs to the left of the hospital. Once you jump to
climb the step, the coin should appear.
* After you climb the ladder, there's a cloud to the left. Jump on it and once
you're on it, place yourself 2 quarters again, from left to right. Then jump.
* By the tree before the boss room. A little more to the right, I'd say. Jump
to get.
Round 3: some nasty castle.
In this first part you ain't getting anything good from anyone here, so use the
Pyramidal-Strox move to get out. Only once, though.
Once you get on the new screen, go right and beat the red snakes, then climb
the ladder. Ignore the "ale or mead" shop. Of course, unless you really have to
Above the ladder there should be a yellow snake. Kill it and go left until you
see a door with an "?". Kill the other yellow snake to get some extra cash.
Ignore the "?" shop. On the ledge above this shop, you should find a heart if
you jump aligned to the candle. It's somewhere around there. Go right, go up,
climb ladder at the top of the screen. Then go left, get the hourglass, then up
again. Kill the arrow guy and get the cash. Then enter a secret door at the
point the "?" shown a few moments ago. Buy the light armor.
There's a conveyour belt here that you can avoid by using the Pyramidal-Strox
move. The best choice, I'd say.
Keep going right all the way and kill some red fireballs. Then enter the boss
room. It's a knight on a red armor. It's pretty easy to beat him, so watch his
movements carefully so you wont get hit by some lame. After he's dead, you
don't have to worry about a key cos all he gives you is money. IT'S A DINHERO
TIME!! After you collect all the coins, you'll find yourself going to the 4th
Round! Way to go!!
Money Locations:
* On the very very rightmost part of the platform with a ladder, which you can
find after you kill the first yellow snake of the Round. Jump to get once
you're in position.
Round 4: On your way to Baraboro
What kind of place is named Baraboro?! No, really, I'd like to know... anyways,
this round is FULL of hidden money bags that you can get by jumping, PLATFORM
AFTER PLATFORM. They can be caught more to the middle of each one, but I'm not
really in the mood to write down where's each one.... oh hell, just kidding,
you'll find them in the end of this section ;-)
This is it, keep going left bashing the baddies and when you reach the
left-and-right platform, wait to be in sync then jump avoiding the grubs. Keep
goin' left and here we are, the Coastal City of BARABORO!
Once there, avoid the big rats and enter the armor shop. Then buy the heavy
armor. I'll explain details later.
Get out the shop, keep going left. You see the shield shop? Climb the ladder to
get to it, andenter. Once there, buy the Knight Shield. Get out and kill the
big rat outside. You see the ale or mead door right below you? Get in position:
place yourself above it then press up to knock a door. Yeah, there's a hidden
door here and it was a bitch for me to find when I was a kid. Catherine is
inside and she'll give you the Flute. Don't you dare to leave without it. Again
another weird name she'll say, "PORORO ISLAND". For pity's sake... =)
Keep going left, bash some baddies and then you should see two up-and-down
platforms. They're tiny. There's water below them. No matter what happens in
this world, DO NOT FALL INTO IT! Go left, kill the red rat and enter the door
to kill the boss. It's an octupus of some sort. It plays a drum and throws
fireballs. Jump and stab him with your sword. Repeat the cash / key scheme.
Once you're out, you can go to the underwater area on the right. Now you're
allowed to fall =)
Keep pressing left on the D-pad (while you're falling) and you should access
some area where there's a weapon shop, and in case you wasted your potion, you
can get another one here for 100G. BUT YOU DIDN'T WASTE YOURS, DID YOU?!?
To the right part of this underwater area, you should see a couple of grubs
that you can easily kill. And a red guy too before them. He's got a high
defense level, so it takes plenty of hits to kill it. You should try to kill it
because some rare, very improbable times, he gives you the Ceramic Boots. I've
seen this with my eyes a couple of times. But it's really improbable... Keep
going right to get out of the water. You'll find yourself before the platforms
once again, but don't worry to hit the water, cos if you do, you won't dive
again =)
Go left once more. Most of you'll notice that you can enter the boss room
again! Do it for some extra cash. I don't really think I have to mention you
are supposed to kill him again to get the money. In the end, instead of a key,
a big heart will appear and fully recover your HP.
Once you're out, go left and knock the door to go to the 5th stage!
Money Locations:
* The second platform
* The third
* The up-and down. Jump when you reach the top in order to get the bag. (4th)
* The sixth, the one between the Glubs.
* The seventh. Above the sixth, take a hi-jump to the left trying to land on
the 7th. A money bag should come out.
* The leftmost part of the tiny island where you can see that crabby thing.
Jump to get. It might be necessary to give a little tap on the controller to
the right while on the air, though...
* The final left-and-right-moving-platform before the grubs. When it's
positioned on the right (and I mean extremely to the right), jump while on it
and a money bag should come out.
* On the second cloud you can reach via the spring that appear once you step on
the lonely block above the first water, right after the shield shop. Yes, the
cloud wandering right above the island with another crabby guy.
* Above the boss' house, 2/4 scheme again. Jump to get, there's 3 of them. You
can reach either with the wing boots or if you don't have them, via
Round 5: The way to MAM Desert
No problems at this first part. Just an "Ale or Mead" shop, but you won't need
it. Keep going left until you find a well, then fall down into it.
When you land, you'll find yourself inside a cave. Keep going right, defeating
the mud-men, these guys who keep moving left and right and throwing projectiles
at you. Until you find a secret door, one with a "?". The "?" appears more
easily if you're in contact with the ground once you reach proper position.
Again, press up to knock onto the invisible door. Once you're in, kill the
Gorilla to get the "Great Sword" upgrade. Evade the rocks he throw and keep
hitting it with your sword to succeed.
Keep going right to find an armor store. Enter it. See the 540G armor there?
Since you already bought 2 armors, the game already made it available for you
to buy. Once you got the money, though ;-) Exit the cave and you'll be at Mam
Attention: this next step is FULLY OPTIONAL and NOT RECOMMENDED, since you'll
waste money and therefore won't be able to pay for the game's best equipments,
i.e.: Shield and Armor.
- Enter the "Ale or Mead" shop then buy two of the guy's most expensive
drinks. By the second one, he'll give you the "Letter to Betty". This will help
you guess the secret of the Sphinx on level 6.
Keep going right at the desert, and count 3 cactus. By the third, stop moving
and prepare to make a jump, trying to land by the 4th cactus. If done right,
you should've been able to avoid an invisible hole here, between cactus 3 and
4. Keep going right and killing the arrow guy to earn money bags. Once you've
killed them all (by this time you should've reached the pyramid entrance), go
back left and walk until you fall down this hole.
There are no bosses in this stage, so you gotta get the key you'll find down
this hole. After you get it, take some damage (not much, okay?) to perform a
safe Pyramidal-Strox. You're out of the place, safe and sound.
Go right, kill the arrow guys AGAIN and there shall be money again! Then knock
the door of the pyramid to get to the 6th Round. Any questions? Good...
Money Locations:
* The very first tree of the round, before the "Ale or Mead" shop. Jump to get.
* The third tree after the "Ale or Mead" shop. Jump to get.
* Above the armor store inside the cave. About 6/8 to the left. Jump to get.
* On the 4th cactus on the Mam Desert, a little more to the left. Can be done
twice, before and after you went down the hole. Jump to get.
Round 6: The Pyramid
The ground is full of nasty spikes so watch your step and make sure you won't
hit them. I mean it. Keep going right and bust the Grim Reapers along the way.
They are a bitch to hit the second time because they get farther with the first
attack. Some extra weapons would work good here, in case you have some.
When you reach the rightmost part of the area, you should see an arrow pointing
right, but I'd like you to know that there's a hidden door on the fixed yellow
platform, above the red ones that when you step, they come down. This door
leads to a weapon store. Useless since you got guts to go on without'em =)
Once you go right following the arrow and the game goes changing areas, DO NOT
PRESS anything on the D-Pad cos in the next area there'll be some nasty blue
snakes ready to get you. So, when the action resumes, check your postition to
get rid of them. Go right but don't fall down yet.
This is quite possibly the most important jump of the game. If done right, you
should be able to reach the other side. Go right a little bit more and 3 money
bags should pop from nowhere. Now fell free to fall (FFF), then go left to kill
some blue snakes for extra money. After this, fall down at the hole at the
bottom of the screen to move on the the area below.
ATTENTION: the next step is FULLY OPTIONAL and NOT RECOMMENDED, since you will
waste money AGAIN and will be even farther to get the best armor and shield of
the game.
Once you land, go left all the way until you see a lone platform over a lot of
spikes, and a lone door. Enter there and buy two of the girl's most expensive
drinks and READ HER COMMENTS CAREFULLY. On the first drink she'll thank you for
having brought her boyfriend's letter. On the second, she'll tell you a hint
about the Sphinx's question. Like:
- The Sphinx took a ride he'll never forget: After Burner would be the answer.
- Our chicken was stolen yesterday: Fried Chicken would be the answer.
- and so on.
If you choose to ignore this step to save money (which I strongly suggest since
the Sphinx is not such a bitch to kill), you should read:
- Once you land go right to the second most important jump of the game. If
you're able to reach the second ledge, there will be a door with a "?" Enter
and buy the Legendary Boots for 380G. Congratulations! You got the best boots
of the game! However, if you miss the jump, no problem... on round 7 there is a
boot store too.
Now go down and then right to enter the boss room. This is the Sphinx. It will
ask you a question. If you answer right, you'll be able to move on without
having to battle against it. The problem is, the answers to the questions vary
from time to time, so it's useless to write down and you have to repeat the
"Ale or Mead boyfriend letter strategy" all the time. That is, if you WANT to
answer right. And waste money. Technically, you BUY the answer. And that sucks.
So, if you are a real man, battle against the Sphinx with your sword. Evade the
little bolts it throws, judge your distance carefully and use the sword attack.
Don't get too close or it'll teleport to another position. By using weapons
such as the thunder and the fireball, you increase your success rate if you
still have troubles hitting it with the sword. (remember: there's still a
one-in-three chance for you to answer right...)
Beat it and go to Round 7. No key-getting problems, so... IT'S A DINHERO TIME!!
Money Locations:
The only known secret location has already been mentioned.
Round 7: pathway to PORORO ISLAND (ewww...)
I hope pororoes, whatever they are, aren't harmful. Well, anyways, in this
round there are plenty of stores and a hospital. You can browse the other
stores as you please, but keep saving money. In other words, don't waste
anything! (Note: the first door sells the Boots of Legend, in case you missed
the boot shop at the Pyramid)
Keep going right until you find a house wider than the others. Enter it and
you'll face the blue Grim Reaper. Don't let it touch you'll or it'll steal your
money. Defeat it to get the Excallibur Sword upgrade.
Once you are done killing the Reaper, go right and enter the last house. Talk
to the little elephant then follow his advice: go left and climb the platform
that appeared now. The same effect can be reached by using the Pyramidal-Strox.
Keep going by the clouds in the sky area you reached, taking care not to fall
because you'll lose the extra hidden money. Once you're done with all the
clouds at range, you must fall to reach Pororo.
Go right past the first door and enter the second one. Then beat the blue
armored guy and get the cash, taking care with the key. Once you're out, go
right and climb that ladder... Remember that flute you got? (you got it, no?)
Wonderboy will play it once he reaches the top. Then the mystery Mansion will
appear at the rightmost part of the area.
Go right and enter the door.
Make your way to the left beating the enemies you find. When you see the
up-and-down-platform, step on it then knock the door above it. The goat (I
guess) inside will give you the Charm so you can deliver it to the Catifish. Go
left and leave the mansion. Hell of a ramshackle mansion it is, I'd say.
Well, once you're out, go left all the way. Remember the boss door? You can
enter it AGAIN! Do it and beat him so you can get some extra money, and a big
heart! It will refill all your life energy and give you some points as well.
After that, when outside, go left and leave the round.
Money Locations:
* Every cloud except for the first one in the sky area. The last one can only
be reached with a wing boot.
* At the leftmost part of the platform above the Mansion entry. There are 3 of
them. Jump to get.
* At the last step of the stair leading out of the mansion. Jump to get.
There's a coin, a money bag and a heart. Take care not to get hit by the blue
fire thingy.
* At the 1st cloud to the right of the boss' house. Jump to get. There are 3
coins. You can get these twice: 1st when you didn't enter the mansion yet, 2nd
when you're coming back.
Round 8: whatever
Go right all the way and DO NOT FALL into the area below, since it's a bitch to
get out. Lots of spikes, tough enemies and a conveyour belt are there to greet
you, so be smart. After you leave, THROUGH THE RIGHT PATH, you'll be in a
desert. Most of the doors are disabled, but don't be fooled cos some of them
can be accessed if you knock on them. Remeber: if you do fall in the area
below, no desert for you.
There's an "Ale or Mead" shop by the first ladder you see. When you see the
second ladder, climb it then go right on the platform you just reached. Stay in
front of the window then press up to knock on a door. Now you'll battle against
the Old Twisted Wizard. Defeat it to get 10 thunder flashes, which will help
you A WHOLE LOT on defeating the Round's final boss. This old man shoots some
kind of ball and flies around the screen, but it's easy to beat. Some of you
may say "I only got 9 thunder flashes", but I say again, you got 10. Just pause
and check it out. The bar on the top only shows values up to 9. That's a
software limitation I think. These thunders surely make the desert visitation
Keep going right and then you'll enter a cave. There are a few grey grim
reapers who steal your money and a couple of bats, who whill generally give you
extra hearts. Once you see a lava pit, count 1, 2, 3 platforms. Once you're on
the third, press up to knock-knock. Who's there? A NASTY Medusa!! Use the
thunder flashes you got (I'm assuming you got) to defeat her. Just don't
release them all at once, I'd say one per second would be nice, because if you
shoot them all very quickly the game won't compute the flashes correctly and
you'll run out of flashes before you even kill the boss. Check it out if you
dare. It should take about 6 flashes to kill her, so if it takes more you
didn't do right. Once you kill her, get the money and the key, necessarily in
this order.
Go right and knock the door to leave the Round. You made it once again.
Money Locations:
* There are no known hidden money locations in this Round.
Round 9: Danger! Keep out.
Watch out for the lava pit. Go right until you see the armor shop. Enter and
get it: the ARMOR OF LEGEND, for 540 GP. That's the freakin' best armor of the
game! Way to go!
Keep going right until you find a cave. Go in. You'll notice that its path is
vertical, going down. Now I'll tell you something good: wonderboy has 2
different falling speeds. The slowest you can get by walking towards the edge
and letting him fall without pressing the jump button. The fastest, you achieve
by pressing the jump button and flying away from the ledge you were once in. I
want you to get the fastest this time, since it'll avoid the enemies on your
way down this cave.
Continue falling, but pay attention to the hidden money locations at the end of
this section. Once you reach the sixth screen, there'll be a lonely platform on
the center, very close to a blue fire bogey. Step on it, taking care not to get
hit by the enemy cos if you do, you'll fall, forever losing your chance to
enter this room ;(
Once you're in, defeat the boss inside to get the Sword of Legend, the best
sword of the game! Yahooo! Oh, but you have to defeat him first... well, since
you got a nice defense status now, don't worry too much about getting hit.
Watch the position of his surrounding fires, then get close to him. If you feel
like you're gonna make it, STAB HIM LIKE CRAZY!! And you'll get outta there
safe and sound.
Now keep going down, just paying attention to the money locations. Once you hit
the 7th screen, there'll be a lava pit down there. Just get out going right and
you'll reach the Icy area.
Go right all the way and you'll eventually reach the boss. It's a pretty tough
Pig... it throws some knives (but not forks nor spoons) and it has quite
possibly the highest attack points in this game, so watch your damage meter.
Evade its knives and hit with your sword. Take care. After killing it, get the
money and the key. Then once you're out, go right, kill the arrow guy, then
right to knock knock. That's the business, man!You reached Round 10!!
Money Locations:
* At the very end of the lava pit from the first area. Once you hit the first
centimeter of land after the lava, jump and a money bag will come out. Since
you'll be really close to the arrow throwing guy, watch yourself.
* On the third screen of the cave you have to keep falling: there'll be a
ledgeto the left, a lonely platform to the center of the screen, just above a
big hole leading to the next area. Step on this platform. Get to the leftmost
part of it then jump, and then a money bag will come out. If you can't get it
on the first time, keep trying different "to the left" positions.
* After you got the money on the third screen, prepare to get it on the 4th. At
the platform you were, perform a jump projecting yourself tottally to the right
now. Once you get on the 4th screen, you'll be on a ledge watching over 2 nasty
bats. Get to the leftmost part of this ledge, and then jump to get another
money bag.
* At the screen where the boss lurks, there'll be a ledge to the very lower
part of the screen. Get to it, and then move to the left, leaving 1/4 of space
between you and the wall to the left. Then jump and a money bag will come out.
* On the Icy area after the cave, there'll be a water pond with a red platform.
The one that when you step on, it'll come down with your weight. Considering
the middle of the tiny platform as 50%, ou must get between 51% and 85% of it,
then jump 3 times to get coins.
Round 10: the Ice Castle.
Although it's made of Ice, this place is full of hot-burning lava. Impressive.
Not many other mysteries in this round, though. Go left all the way, killing
enemies to get money. There are plenty of hidden shops here, so press up on
every platform you reach to find them. In the end, you'll meet the nasty kong.
You've seen a guy like him before, so you'll know what to do. No keys, so...
(come on everyone!) IT'S-A-DINHERO-TIME!!
Money Locations:
* There are no know hidden money locations in this round.
Round 11: the Dragon's castle boundaries!!
Few have made it this far... no, really! Keep going right all the way until you
see the last water entrance of the area. Dive into it, and PRESS THE LEFT ON
THE D-PAD LIKE CRAZY. You should reach the ledge where a door with a "?" is.
Enter it. Then get out. Then enter again. SURPRISE! The Great Catfish is
inside! He'll give you the hero's emblem, which'll allow you to exchange it for
the Bell or the Ruby later on.
Go right and you'll leave the water area then enter a cave. Go right all the
way... down all the way... And you'll reach the castle boundaries. You should
see a BIG dragon statue. Keep going, visiting all doors... You'll face ANOTHER
knight, only this is in silver armor... beat him AGAIN... then you'll enter a
door and talk to the woman you first seen in the game. When she tells you to
choose between the ruby or the bell, take the ruby. You won't need the bell cos
I made a map just for you, so ya won't get lost in tha castle, rite?? Good no?
The Ruby will make it a whole lot easier to beat the dragon: it'll take a lot
less hits to kill him.
Then go right and leave the Round. Now you mean business: welcome to the Last
Money Locations:
* You won't use money for anything else in the game, and even if you do, your
savings should do it. I'm serious.
Round 12: The Dragon's Castle!!!!
Wave to the crowd... here you are: the last Round!! This round is the most
difficult of the game, for a few particular reasons: It's a maze, and once you
take the wrong path you're forced to start over again; the hourglass inflicts
damage as time flows in the game, and since the castle is a long way to run,
this could be trouble; the dragon is a tough boss a most of us get nervous at
the time we have to face him, and the encounter ends up in a loss. And that
means, back to round 1, and you'd have to hear all my talk again ;)
Well, let's solve stuff one by one. For the maze you'll get a map here, as said
before. For the hourglass, kill the enemies and DO NOT WORRY ABOUT GETTING THE
CASH. There won't be any other shops in the game. Just beat them to take them
out of your way. Keep in mind that the most important is to reach the dragon
arena as soon as possible.
And for the dragon battle, well... there's not much I can say, but it has a
simple program: it spits fire towards you, so a good thing to do is to get in a
convenient position every time so you can move away from the fire blasts, AND
still get in position to attack. The only way to inflict damage is to hit its
head by jumping and using the sword. The fire blast can't change direction in
flight, and it's pretty dumb. It'll burn in the floor for some time before it
goes out, so don't get burned. The dragon's battle program can also be divided
in 2 main groups:
- when the dragon looks like a dragon (green and all that)
- when it has turned into Meka, a machine-like dragon, after you kill its first
"skin". Let's put it that way... Meka is a lot faster and meaner.
Now, the freakin' map. It's not ASCII art thingy cos I really don't need to do
such. It's based mostly on giving directions and references as you move through
the castle. Here we go.
1* Once you're in, keep going right, and take the lower path.
2* Keep going right, until you see a lower passage. Go down, and fall all the
3* When you land, go right.
4* On the next screen, go left, then fall down.
5* while on the air, go right and land on the first ledge
6* go down again, and repeat: land on the ledge to the right.
7* Keep going right until you see an up-down platform. Take it and go up.
8* (FANCY) Go up all the way, ignoring ledges. Many people have difficulties
here. Right at the beginning of the new screen, you must press right on the
D-Pad like crazy, so you can land on the lower platform. But you can't stay
there forever, cos it'll go down as long as you're standing there. The
solution: jump to the other one. Once you get on the other, the one you were
before will start climbing, getting higher than the one you're standing. And
this process will repeat several times, until you reach the very top.
- If you do it wrong and fall: (only if)
Go left once you land. Keep going left, left left... until you see a passage
allowing you to go down. Do so. Go back to steps 5 and 6 and try again until
you do it right.
9* Once you reach the top, (this can be a bitch) take the left. When you see
the blue snakes, take the higher path.
10* Go left. Do not fall.
11* Go down (on green plant things), ignore the 1st ledge, keep falling and
enter the 2nd. (D,D,R)
12* Keep going right, until you see a passage down. Go down, then fall ALL THE
WAY down.
13* When you land (there should be a red fireball thingy to tell you you're
right), go left all the way. (by the extreme left, there'll be a lonely red
14* Keep going left, knock knock. Then beat the Dragon.
15* yahoo.
16* I'm the best.
17* yeehaw.
