Final Fantasy Tactics – Secrets FAQ
Secrets FAQ by STobias
Version: 1.08 | Updated: 08/05/03
--------------------------------------------- Final Fantasy Tactics FAQ 1.08 (Final) Serin Tobias shinseitori <at> hotmail (dot) com --------------------------------------------- Contents There should be three different files: Part One: Game Walkthrough Part Two: Jobs and Abilities Part Three: Secrets and other Info This file contains Part Three. --------------------------------------------- i. Revision History 1.08 -- This is the final revision of this FAQ. No more information will be added. I am still taking e-mails, however, and you can still host it. 1.07 -- I have added plenty of stuff, including monster info in the Jobs section, and added to the appendix in the Secrets section. I've also corrected some errors that were around. This will probably be the last update for a while. 1.06 -- A complete item list (to the best of my knowledge) is in the Secrets section. I think I will work on spell quotes and monster data next. 1.05 -- I am adding a lot more info to the Jobs section, and now have locations for the items of the Deep Dungeon. I am now working on a detailed item list. 1.04 -- Added some Deep Dungeon info, changed my e-mail address, and various other minor changes. 1.03a -- Nothing added to the actual FAQ, but I removed my ICQ# and corrected my e-mail address and web page URL. They have been changed. 1.03 -- Added a section on the Deep Dungeon in the Secrets section. 1.02 -- Added a poaching list, edited the Cloud section. 1.01 -- Corrected a couple of typos (the jobs section is actually legible), added the "Where to find these files" section, and the Special Thanks section. 1.00 -- First draft. --------------------------------------------- ii. Introduction Welcome. Over the past couple of years, I have gathered information about Final Fantasy Tactics. That information, my love of the game and a bit of insanity produced what you now see here. A notice to players: these files contain many "spoilers" of the storyline, so be cautious. The walkthrough section is in the order of the game, but the other sections have potential spoilers from various portions of the game. If you have a question about a specific issue, don't hesitate to ask me via e-mail. If you wish to use any information contained in any of these files for a webpage, publication, or any other form of media, you must contact me first. --------------------------------------------- iii. Special Thanks First, I would like to give a big "thank you" to all of my friends, who helped me immensely with the statistics and many other things. Thanks to Sergio Lopez, (email@example.com) for correcting some of my data in the jobs section. Thanks to Matt Hobbs (email@example.com) and Kevin McCullough (firstname.lastname@example.com) for submitting their poaching list. And, thanks goes to Square, who has made another incredible game! --------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Secrets and other information of Final Fantasy Tactics i.

VOYAGE 3.2.9. HORROR 3.2.10. END 3.3. Elidibs 4. Appendix 4.1. Poaching List 4.2. Item List 4.3. Quotes --------------------------------------------- 1. Secret Abilities --------------------------------------------- There are two abilities than you can't learn through ordinary means. One is a Guts ability for Ramza, another is a Summon spell for any Summoner you have. To learn these, you must have the spell cast on you, and if it is Ultima, Ramza must be in the Squire job class. If it is Zodiac, your Summoner must be in the Summoner job class. --------------------------------------------- 1.1. Ultima You can learn Ultima through two different types of enemies: Assassins and Ultima Demons. Learning these spells is very difficult; you really have to force them to use it. Ramza must be in the Squire job class, have this spell cast on him, and survive it. --------------------------------------------- 1.1.1. The Assassins Celia and Lede, whom you fight three times, are the easiest way to learn Ultima. If you equip your characters with Black Costumes to prevent their Shadow Stitch attack and Angel Rings to prevent Stop Bracelet, they will more likely cast Ultima. This is probably best done on the roof of Riovanes castle or at the gate of Limberry Castle. --------------------------------------------- 1.1.2. Ultima Demons You fight Ultima Demons twice, once during the battle with Elmdor, and once at Murond. Ultima Demons will very rarely cast Ultima, for they have much better spells. Typically, the Demons won't cast Ultima until you have a character that can be taken out by it. You will also likely have to have Ramza walk in on the effect range to learn it. Check the CT list when you see an Ultima Demon charging a spell. --------------------------------------------- 1.2. Zodiac There is only one battle in which you can learn Zodiac, and that is the last battle in the Deep Dungeon, at "End." Elidibs casts this spell, and it usually does about 800 damage, so you need to take special steps to have your Summoner survive the casting. An effective way of keeping your Summoner alive is to reduce his/her faith level using the Mediator's Solution ability. I'd suggest reducing it to 30 or lower. It depends on your levels of experience. Of course, it's a lot more difficult to raise Faith (with the Mediator's Preach ability). You can also try using the Mind Break Battle Skill, but that may be more difficult. Spells such as Shell and Wall can also help. --------------------------------------------- 2. Secret Characters --------------------------------------------- There are four "secret characters." Probably the best time to get them is near the end of Chapter Four. I have found that the best time to get them is just before you go to Orbonne Monastery. --------------------------------------------- 2.1. Beowulf, Reis and Worker 8 These characters are all part of one sub-quest in this game. This sub-quest starts at Goug Machine City. You must have Mustadio to do this. Go to Goug, and you will find that Mustadio's father has found a metal sphere. He sees a symbol on it, and that is your cue to find another Zodiac Stone. Now go to Goland. Go to the bar at Goland and listen to all the rumors. Now go to Lesalia. Here you will enter a bar and hear about a monster uprising in the mines at Goland. Ramza overhears that Goland is recruiting people to stop this uprising. Ramza volunteers for the job, and is approached by Beowulf. If you choose to go with him, he will join your party as a guest. Head back to Goland. You will now fight a string of four battles, all with enemies at or above your level. --------------------------------------------- 2.1.1. Colliery Underground: Third Floor Here you will fight against five Chemists, who all have Mythril Guns. Try to stick close to them so they can't snipe you to death with their guns. Also, watch out, they can use Hi-Potions, X-Potions and Phoenix Downs, so this could turn out to be a long battle. --------------------------------------------- 2.1.2. Colliery Underground: Second Floor The Chemist here is equipped with the aptly-named Blaze Gun, and there are two Behemoths here. However, the two thieves should be the least of your worries. If you are at high levels, the Behemoths will be too. At high level, they can take out a weak character in one hit, so stay far from them. A King Behemoth is hiding behind the Thief in the front, who is close, so be careful. --------------------------------------------- 2.1.3. Colliery Underground: First Floor The two Chemists have the regular Mythril Guns now, so they aren't much of a threat. The Blue Dragons are your biggest worry. Use Orlandu at long range to defeat them. The Uribo doesn't seem to do anything at all in this battle, so ignore it until the very end, or use a Mediator to Invite it, to breed and poach later. --------------------------------------------- 2.1.4. Underground Passage in Goland Your objective here is to save the Holy Dragon Reis, who seems quite capable of handling herself. With Orlandu and Ramza, you should not have any trouble with the Archaic Demon and the Ochus. The Plagues have the ability to petrify your characters, so you may want to equip Jade Armlets beforehand. You receive a Zodiac Stone from Beowulf and Reis after this battle, and they will now join as members. Now go back to Goug. --------------------------------------------- When you return, the Zodiac Stone will activate the sphere, and Worker 8 will activate. It will join your party now. Mustadio's father will discover another machine that requires another Zodiac Stone, so head to Zeltennia. As in Goland, go to the bar and listen to new rumors. Nelveska Temple will appear on the map when you leave the bar. Here you will fight against Worker 7, a Steel Giant just like Worker 8. However, the Hyudras and the Cocatoris make this battle rather difficult, so focus just on Worker 7. Rememeber, since Worker 7 has Innocent on him at all times (just like Worker 8), he is not affected by magic. After defeating Worker 7, you will receive his Zodiac Stone. NOTE: As has been rumored, there is some incredibly good equipment on top of the pillars in the front of the level. I have confirmed this twice. To get on top of the pillars, you must put a monster directly adjacent to one of them. I don't know if you've noticed, but you can walk over and jump off of monsters. Put your Steel Giant (or another monster) in your party, park it next to the pillar, and have Rafa (with Move-Find Item equipped) get the items on top of the pillars. There is a catch, however. The lower the Brave level of the searching character, the more likely you are to get a good item. You will either find a normal Javelin, or a silver Javelin, on one of the pillars, and a normal Escutcheon or a golden Escutcheon on the other. Make sure you get the unique items before you finish the level. If you get one of the normal items, reset the game, as you won't be able to return. -------------------------------------------- 2.2. Cloud This portion of the sub-quest will now allow you to get Cloud. I believe that you can only get him after you have gotten all the other secret characters, and after you have fought the battle with Dycedarg at Igros. First go to Goug, then to Zarghidas Trade City. If you haven't already, go here. A girl will approach you in the town and sell you a flower. Buy it, then go to Goug. The machine that was found will now activate and deposit Cloud Strife into your reality. But, you don't have him yet, as he runs off. He went to Zarghidas, go follow him. --------------------------------------------- 2.2.1. Zarghidas Trade City You will be attacked here, but it is not a problem at all. Beware, though, Cloud is not equipped with a weapon. Cloud will join your party as a member after this battle, and, to get his Materia Blade, go to Bervenia Volcano. --------------------------------------------- 2.2.2. Bervenia Volcano Equip a character with the Move-Find Item ability, and go to the top of the spire in this level. You will find the Materia Blade there, and with this Materia Blade, Cloud can use his Limit abilities. --------------------------------------------- 3. Deep Dungeon --------------------------------------------- The Deep Dungeon is a set of 10 different levels that is shrouded in total darkness. To get here, go to Warjilis Trade City (near Lionel Castle) during chapter four. You should be immediately taken to a scene in a bar there where some thieves talk about the Deep Dungeon. Then it will appear on the map. --------------------------------------------- 3.1. Overview Inside the Deep Dungeon is a bunch of very tough enemies. You will see monsters like Dragons and Hyudras that you don't see in many other places: beware. However, the best part about the Deep Dungeon is that you will find great equipment that you can't find anywhere else. To advance deeper into the Deep Dungeon, you need to have one character find the way further. It's on a single square in the level, and is often far (but not always) from the starting point. Just have your characters move square by square through the level until one of them reports that they have found it. No special abilities need to be equipped. To make this job easier, I would suggest having a Wizard with Math Skill come with you, and he/she should use Frog and Sleep on at least one of the enemies. Do this because if you kill all of the enemies, you exit without advancing. Try to kill the others because Crystals illuminate the cave, which makes it a lot easier. One last thing: the square that the exit is on changes with new games, so don't expect to find it in the same spot the second time through. --------------------------------------------- 3.2. Items There are four items on each level in the Deep Dungeon. The items get better as you progress, but there are definitely good ones on the first few levels. To get the items, you have a few requirements. First, you must have the Chemist ability Move-Find Item equipped on the character picking up the items. Any character without this ability that stops on a square containing a item sets off a trap. For each item you can find, you have a chance of finding that good item or a Phoenix Down. Your chances of finding the good item are greater when your Brave level is low. So, I would suggest using Rafa or another character with a low Brave level, and lowering his/her Brave level down to 10 before they go hunting for items. Remember that if your character's Brave level goes down below 10, that character will turn into a Chicken and you will lose control of him/her. You'll have to wait until the character slowly gains bravery back to look for items. I have the locations of all the items in the Deep Dungeon in the following sections. However, since a graphic representation is rather impossible, I am using a coordinate system to give you the location of the units. Here is how it works: The square from which the system starts at is called (0,0), or the origin. I will tell you this point on the map, and by moving the cursor a certain amount of spaces along the walls, you can locate the position of the item. The first digit of the code is along the wall facing the backs of your characters (from their starting point). The second digit is along the wall facing the sides of your characters. I shall demonstrate with a crude diagram representing the items in END: 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 (X)- - 1 - 2 - - - - O | - | | | 1 0: Origin (0,0) | 3 - 4 | 2 S: General starting point for your characters (2,3) | - | S | 3 1: Chirijiraden (7,0) | - | | 4 2: Elixir (5,0) | | | 5 3: Elixir (7,2) | - | | - | | 6 4: Chaos Blade (5,2) | - || | | 7 | || - | | 8 This is a pretty bad diagram, but basically, the ground curves | - | | 9 in a crescent shape, and descends from the plateau where the (Y) items are down to the starting point. So, according to this diagram, the origin is behind and to the right of the starting point. Also, the wall labeled "X" is the wall facing the backs of your characters, while the wall labeled "Y" is the wall facing the sides of your characters. Hopefully, if you can locate the origin, you'll be able to see which wall is X and which is Y, and determine the locations of the items. All of the locations are given in the form (X,Y), and X is always behind your characters. Make sure you are seeing the faces of your characters before you try to determine which wall is which. Also, the walls are based on the directions your characters are facing when they start the level. Also, keep in mind that the origin is always in a corner. --------------------------------------------- 3.2.1. NOGIAS The origin in this level is behind your characters, and to the right. It is at 23 height. Blaze Gun: (7,7) Glacier Gun: (0,9) Elixir: (3,9) Kiyomori: (5,0) You may have acquired a Blaze Gun before (from Balk in the Bed Desert), but not the Glacier Gun. The Kiyomori is just an ordinary Katana that can be bought anywhere. --------------------------------------------- 3.2.2. TERMINATE The origin in this level is again behind and to the right of your characters. It is at 12 height. Elixir: (6,1) Elixir: (4,11) Blood Sword: (2,4) Save the Queen: (8,10) These items are not unique, so they are not as important as in the other levels. --------------------------------------------- 3.3.3. DELTA The origin in this level is back and to the right. It is at 1 height. Elixir: (4,12) Elixir: (7,0) Yoichi Bow: (2,6) Mace of Zeus: (8,9) The Yoichi Bow is a strong bow that may also be found on high level Archers. The Mace of Zeus is perhaps the best staff in the game. --------------------------------------------- 3.3.4. VALKYRIES The origin is behind and to the left of your characters. It is at 9 height. Kaiser Plate: (10,0) Faith Rod: (11,2) Fairy Harp: (10,1) Elixir: (3,8) The Kaiser Plate is a very good shield, and the Faith Rod is a rod that gives the status effect Faith to its wielder, and randomly adds Faith to whomever it strikes. --------------------------------------------- 3.3.5. MLAPAN The origin is behind and to the right of your characters. It is at 11 height. Elixir: (6,11) Elixir: (0,0) Iga Knife: (6,0) Excalibur: (4,3) The Iga Knife is a Ninja Sword that is better than the ones you can buy. I'm sure you are familiar with Excalibur. ^_^ --------------------------------------------- 3.3.6. TIGER The origin is behind and to the right of your characters. It is at 5 height. All of the items here are very close to your starting point. Elixir (0,0) Secret Clothes (1,0) Cursed Ring (1,1) Blast Gun (0,1) The Secret Clothes is a Ninja suit that provides little protection, but it makes its wearer Invisible for a short time. The Blast Gun, the best gun, shoots Lightning elemental bullets. --------------------------------------------- 3.3.7. BRIDGE The origin is again behind and to the right of your characters. It is at 3 height. All of these items are on a straight line, at X = 4. Elixir (4,10) Elixir (4,0) Koga Knife (4,2) Sage Staff (4,4) The Koga Knife is another Ninja knife, while the Sage Staff is simply a bad staff. It's only asset is a higher attack power than other staves. --------------------------------------------- 3.3.8. VOYAGE The origin is behind and to the left of your characters. It is at 3 height. All of the items are on the lower level, in the corners of the cliff. Elixir (2,3) Perseus Bow (8,7) Robe of Lords (6,6) Ragnarok (3,5) The Perseus Bow is a very strong bow, the best there is. The Robe of Lords provides excellent HP and MP bonuses, along with Protect and Shell when it is equipped. The Ragnarok casts Shell on its user. It is also slightly stronger than the Excalibur, but not necessarily better. --------------------------------------------- 3.3.9. HORROR The origin is behind and to the right of your characters. It is at 0 height. Elixir (10,6) Grand Helmet (3,5) Maximillian (9,9) Venetian Shield (3,4) The armor here is the best in the game, even better than the Genji equipment. Be sure to get it all. --------------------------------------------- 3.3.10. END The origin is behind and to the right of your characters, at zero height. This level is shaped in a crescent form. You start at the low end, and the items are at the high end--at the four corners of the highest plateau. Elixir (7,2) Elixir (5,0) Chirijiraden (7,0) Chaos Blade (5,2) The Chirijiraden is a very strong Katana, and the Chaos Blade is a unbelievably powerful blade. It has an attack power of 40, casts Regen on the user, and adds Petrify (!). I would strongly advise against trying for these items in the battle with Elidibs; you can go back after you defeat him. --------------------------------------------- 3.3. Elidibs Elidibs is another Zodiac monster. He uses the Zodiac Stone Serpentarius to change into a very powerful Summoner. He is on the top of the crescent-shaped 10th floor, END. He has a very weak physical attack, but has the Summon spell Zodiac, which will most likely kill any of your characters, and it has a huge effect range. Keep your characters spread out, and watch for it. He also has a few Byblos on the steps leading to him which you must fight through. He also has the spell Poison Frog, which affects you just like it sounds; it can be a pain, especially when trying to get Zodiac. Another attack he has is called Midgar Swarm, which will probably do about 300 damage to anyone in the target area. You should probably use Orlandu to take out the Byblos. They have the same attacks that they did in the battle at Limberry Castle, including that annoying one that turns your guys into Frogs. They are really a pushover, though. The challenge is Elidibs himself, and getting Zodiac. I went into a strategy for Zodiac above, in section 2.2. A Byblos joins your party for some reason in this battle. His Difference attack will more than likely do tremendous damage to Elidibs, so keep him around when you need to kill him. --------------------------------------------- 4. Appendix --------------------------------------------- This will be the future home of all of the details of Final Fantasy Tactics. Currently, it contains the poaching list, item lists, and quotes. --------------------------------------------- 4.1. Poaching List I've noticed that when trying to obtain items through poaching, it's easiest to recruit 1st level monsters (like Dragons, Bull Demons, Hyudras), and then breed them to get higher level monsters. It's easier this way, because if you keep one around, you can always breed more 3rd levels, and you won't have to fight them. However, if you can get higher level monsters, it will save you some time. To get the items, put the monsters in battle, whack them with someone with Secret Hunt, and hope they don't counter attack. In case you don't know, the method of getting these items is to equip a character with the Thief support ability Secret Hunt, and kill a monster (friendly or otherwise) with a normal attack. This means that Orlandu's sword skills will not do it. A Fur Shop (found in trade cities) will refine an item from the monster you poached. There, you will either buy a commonly refined item, or perhaps a rare item from that monster. Two different items can be refined from a monster. Note that some of the rare items can't be found elsewhere. This list was submitted via e-mail by Matt Hobbs and Kevin McCullough. They also informed me that some of the information may not be correct, so if you see an error, e-mail me and let me know.

Mally Shaded Liquid Face Defender
Price: $40 per ounce
When Mally created her original EverColor Poreless Face Defender, she did something that rarely happens by revolutionizing the beauty world and the way we set our makeup.
Her Liquid Face Defender uses the same technology as her original, is available in four tinted shades and provides similar benefits to the original but requires slightly different technique!
The original Face Defender is a solid silicone compact. You set your makeup with it by patting your sponge on the compact and gently patting your face. It is of the utmost importance that you don't swipe the sponge onto your skin or you'll run the risk of removing makeup!
The same application is required for the Liquid Face Defender. You'll need to take care to PAT it onto your skin in a manner that doesn't disturb your makeup. The principal difference is that you can actually see the Shaded Face Defender on your sponge because you use a bit more product than you would with the original version.
When you squeeze the tube, you just gently dispense product onto your sponge. You may want to gently spread the product around the sponge for the most even results, and then just pat over oily areas,
The Liquid Face Defender is excellent at absorbing excess oil and works equally well as a primer or a setting product and it's thick enough that it will minimize pores and temporarily fill in fine lines and winkles.
The four tinted shades range from Fair/Light to Rich but they apply so sheerly that almost any skintone can use almost any shade. It's not designed to give you added coverage it's simply a sheer wash of color. (Mally even makes a point to clarify this on her website by saying that it's "not your full coverage foundation.")
One thing that I've found the shaded Defender to excel at is contouring. I got the idea from the CoverGirl TruMagic Sunkisser. (CoverGirl released their TruMagic products last year in hopes of copying the success of Mally's Defender.)
Because the Face Defender is a mattifying product and obviously shimmer-free, it provides just enough of a slight tint that looks natural and beautifully carves out cheekbones and shapes your nose. (I'm actually really surprised that Mally hasn't mentioned this huge bonus.)
If you like the original Face Defender and are happy with it than you may not need to bother with the liquid version, but if you're curious it's certainly worth a try. It is an awesome product to replace your pressed powder with and avoid any cakiness permanently!

From: "Billy Joel" article on "The Challah Fame: Who's Who in Jewish Rock" website (http://www.jewsrock.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=challah.view&page=R; viewed 23 November 2005):
Billy Joel once pretended to be Irish and Catholic - hence the many songs about things like crosses and communion - but both of his parents are Jewish. Joel was raised with little Jewish education and in fact grew up attending Catholic mass with his friends. He was a bit of a piano prodigy, taking up the instrument at age 3. As a teen, he played recording sessions, including the Shangri-La's "Leader of the Pack." Joel built his career slowly, releasing several classic singles including "Piano Man" and "New York State of Mind" throughout the seventies, but it wasn't until 1977's The Stranger that he achieved real fame with "Just The Way You Are," which won Grammy Awards for both Record and Song of the Year. Billy Joel's popularity has always withstood cold reception from rock critics: despite being dismissed as soft and derivative by the press, the man who wrote "It's Still Rock and Roll to Me," "Uptown Girl," and "Only The Good Die Young" has sold more than 100,000,000 records over the course of his career.

Black Ops III debuts this month
For those COD junkies out there you likely already know that the third Black Ops game got a teaser trailer today, so this is for the rest of you. The teaser shows relatively little (as teasers are wont to do), but features some voice overs from the previous entries in the series. It ends with the date for the world premiere: April 26. Check back with us then for all the new information.

A special thanks to everyone who commented on my "Coming Out" article from the 18 Feb 2011 issue of AASWOMEN. I'm in the process of getting back to all of you. Some of you posted public remarks on Facebook or on the blog, but most of you e-mailed me directly. It is indeed true that sexual harassment remains a very private thing. Many of you thanked me for sharing my story, and some of you even called me "brave" and "courageous." Thank you SO MUCH for the support and encouragement. A few of you forwarded the story to women you know who are victims of sexual harassment. A couple of you even admitted that you were victims or survivors.
I feel that one of the reasons our community is still dealing with sexual harassment is because so much of what happens is surrounded in secrecy. We are afraid to come forward because of the long tradition of blaming the victim, which goes back at least as far as Anita Hill. In addition, many of the victims are in the most vulnerable positions, i.e., students and post docs. They _should_ be anonymous (or at least as anonymous as possible) when they are courageous enough to either ask for help or come forward with a complaint.
As a full professor and a senior astronomer, I no longer feel the need to be anonymous. So now that I'm out (of a Different Type of Closet), I can tell you that it is a relief. Some of the old frustrations about this period of my life seem to have dissipated as a result of telling my story. So, let me issue this invitation to survivors of sexual harassment: join me! Tell your story to friends, colleagues, and the people you love. You can even share with AASWOMEN (anonymously, if that is your choice).
There appears to be a lot of us, survivors and supporters, but perhaps geographically isolated (like me) who have never had the opportunity to come together in force and stamp out this plague on our community. I feel that we are the nodes of an as-yet unformed network. For those of you that already have an active Women-in-Science group in your department/institution/research group, I'm envious!
I have a suggestion for the rest of us – a way to start small. Recently, I asked two other women in my department to coffee. I did it reluctantly, feeling somewhat bad that we would all be taking time away from our research, but even I was surprised at how much we had to talk about! We continued meeting every month or so and have now expanded our get-togethers to include female students. I invite all of you who want to insure that sexual harassment fades from the collective memory of the astronomical community to try this bottom-up approach.

Is a 64GB iPhone 4S too much storage?
I won't be keeping music on my iPhone 4S, just photos and emails. Would 32GB be enough?
Fields25 Oct. 18, 2011 at 14:59
That would be a heck of a lot of photos and emails!! I would have them backed up to a computer regardless thus negating the need to fill the phone's memory.
I've never had experience with iPhone apps so I don't know what kind of size they tend to weigh in at but if I were you i'd be making the decision between 16GB and 32GB rather than 32GB and 64GB!
Better yet, consider an android handset with removable/expandable storage for a lot less money!
emmajk42 / MOD Oct. 18, 2011 at 16:28
Well I have a 16GB iPad, and I've filled 12GB of that with mostly game apps... I'm now of the opinion to go to as high a storage capacity as you can afford in the first place - you can't upgrade it at a later date.
MDrX Oct. 18, 2011 at 16:40
'Too much storage' has never existed and never will. Do as Emma says and get as much as you can afford.
Although, if you're not using the features the iPhone excels at and only using the phone mainly for email and photos then why not grab something cheaper? An Android with a larger screen might be better for photos, a Blackberry with a really comfortable keyboard my be better for email.
mrew42 Oct. 18, 2011 at 16:54
I've got a 32Gb card uin my Android phone and it's all but full. I have got lots of music and ROMS & NAND backups & Titanium backups and Apps and toot. I wish I had more, so am just pondering getting another 32Gb for music pics & apps and leaving the other one for backups, roms etc. £64Gb micro-sd cards are just too dear at the moment, but even so, they don't cost £100 each!!!
Fields25 Oct. 18, 2011 at 16:56
@ emma. 12GB of games?! Numerically, how many games is that? Of the 12GB of games you have installed, how many do you actually play!?
emmajk42 / MOD Oct. 18, 2011 at 17:25
I think it's about 50 games? I've played all of them, and I don't uninstall as my nephews love to go through them when they get a hold of my iPad.
Some of them are quite big though - like army of darkness is 103MB.
I COULD just uninstall when there are too many
MDrX Oct. 19, 2011 at 14:44
There are some hefty apps out there.
On my phone I have:
CoPilot: 465MB
Tiger Woods 12: 457MB
Epic War TD: 336MB
Katamari: 164MB
Pocket God: 94MB
Plus a multitude around 50MB and below. And I'm not a particular heavy user. Storage soon evaporates

text: I am wondering if it is possible to charge to the iPad through the USB's on a MacBook Air. I just ordered my first Mac so I've had no past experiences, but with previous Windows PC's (laptops), many couldn't as not enough power is passing through the USB sockets. But there was software which could be installed on Windows PC's to allow it charge through any USB socket. So would a MBA charge an iPad and if not, is there any third party software to allow it? Thanks

On 2 September 2015, two kilograms of rocket seeds travelled from Baikonur, Kazakhstan on the Soyuz 44S rocket to the International Space Station (ISS). The seeds were stored in microgravity by Tim Peake (the first British ESA astronaut) before their return to Earth in Spring 2016. Here at Grimes Dyke, we are taking part in the Rocket Science project to investigate whether their space journey has changed the seeds and their growing capability in any way.
On 20th April 2016, a group of Year 5 scientists set up the experiment with 100 rocket seeds from a red packet and 100 rocket seeds from a blue packet. One packet contained seeds that were with Tim Peake in space and the other contained seeds that had remained on Earth. We have no idea which packet is which!
The seeds have all been sown in individual units and have been labelled R1-100 or B1-100 depending on the packet they came from. These have been left in good lighting conditions and will be watered and turned 180degrees every two days. The experiment will run for 35 days and the scientists have various tasks to complete over the 5 week investigation, collecting data which will be fed back into the national database run in conjunction with Royal Horticultural Society, UK Space Agency and European Space Agency.
We are really excited to be taking part in such an amazing experiment that could have an impact on how food is grown.
DAY 3 UPDATE, Friday 22.3.16: Watered and turned 190degrees, we are leaving the seeds alone for their first weekend. I wonder what we'll come back in to on Monday morning...
DAY 6 UPDATE, Monday 25.4.16 : Our seeds have begun to grow! Watered and turned 180degrees.
DAY 8 UPDATE, Wednesday 27.4.16: The seedlings are looking really healthy. A few tiny shoots are still popping up each day. Watered and turned 180degrees.
DAY 10 UPDATE, Friday 29.4.16: Today we took details about how many of the seeds had germinated. The least number was in Blue 4 with 72%; the highest was in Blue 3 with 96%...so no clues there. Watered and turned 180degrees.
DAY 14 UPDATE, Tuesday 3.5.16: The seedlings have survived the bank holiday weekend and the sonic boom from last night! Phew! Early morning watering and turned 180degrees as we weren't here yesterday to do it.
DAY 15 UPDATE, Wednesday 4.5.16: Watered and turned 180degrees. We're back on track.
DAY 16 UPDATE, Thursday 5.5.16: We noticed some of the seedlings sprouting their first 'true' leaves after the weekend. This is when the plants first show that they will produce the usual rocket leaves. A picture of them is below.
DAY 17 UPDATE, Friday 6.5.16: The seedlings are doing really well. We've counted how many of them are still alive and we've lost one but gained another 3! This information has been turned into a percentage for each replicate (or tray) and recorded on our data chart which will be uploaded at the end of the experiment. All plants watered and turned 180degrees.
DAY 20 UPDATE, Monday 9.5.16: Everything is continuing to grow. All plants watered and turned 180degrees.
DAY 21 UPDATE, Tuesday 10.5.16: Today we had to choose the tallest seedling from each replicate and measure it in mm. This information was then recorded on our data chart. The tallest overall was 72mm...and from a blue replicate.
DAY 22 UPDATE, Wednesday 11.5.16: All plants watered and turned 180degrees.
DAY 24 UPDATE, Friday 13.5.16: All plants watered and turned.
DAY 27 UPDATE, Monday 16.5.16: All plants watered and turned.
DAY 28 UPDATE, Tuesday 17.5.16: Today we had to find the average mean height of the leaves on 5 randomly selected plants for each replicate. We used a computerised random number generator to find the numbers of five randomly selected seedlings for each replicate (eg. B68). We then counted the leaves on each of the five seedlings, added them together and divided by 5 to find the average number of leaves for the replicate. The data was recorded on our data chart.
DAY 29 UPDATE, Wednesday 18.5.16: All plants watered and turned.
DAY 31 UPDATE, Friday 20.5.16: The original leaves of the seedlings are beginning to wither. The true rocket leaves (those that you would eat) are all coming through well though. All plants watered and turned.
DAY 34 UPDATE, Monday 23.5.16: Only two more days of the experiment left! I'm not sure they'll be ready for a salad any time soon but our last day of recording data for the Space Agency is tomorrow. All plants watered and turned.
DAY 35 UPDATE, Tuesday 24.5.16: We have reached the end of the 35 day experiment! To finish off our data collection we counted how many seedlings are still alive in each replicate and then turned these into percentages. We've lost a few seedlings but most have survived the last 5 weeks. All plants have been watered and we'll decide now where to plant them to see how they get on as outdoor plants. We're still none the wiser as to which seeds were in space so we'll have to wait until next half term when we get a message from Tim Peake letting us know whether it was the red packet or the blue packet.

Birthdays are awesome, cakes, balloons and every year you get younger and younger 🙂 Sorry I don't celebrate mine anymore, but I would be up for one smash the cake session 🙂
I have started to run these portrait session recently and baby 1st birthday sessions are picking up well. Families are enjoying their time and wee one is slowly getting into the cake 🙂 With Adrianna it was a bit tricky for the start as she wasn't sure about eating bit 🙂 We did a little playing and slowly slowly she got used to the cake and started to pick up and get cake coverage. There was definite signs of high class table manners, just slowly with one finger picking up cake and not sure if she is aloud to do more 🙂 Until dad had to get a good chunk and do the dirty bit. Then all fun started… Here is what we got from our photo session.
Obviously someone in family likes football … dad.
Making funny faces 🙂
A little introduction approach to the cake. Step by step lady dips in 🙂
And here you go. Give me more of that cake. I love it 🙂
Yeah, I love these sessions. It takes a wee while to get babies to dip into it, but with playing up and using different tricks the all end up in mud and sweetie coverage 🙂
It was great fun and parents took some snaps as well. Here is one of me crawling as well 🙂

Based on available images, the name of the player is not shown on the Ecuador jersey thus the World Cup 2014 Ecuador fomt will only have numbers. However, the font will be updated if ever the nane of a player is added on the jersey that will be used during the World Cup. The font comes in both TrueType and OpenType.
Since the World Cup 2014 Ecuador font only has numbers, there will be no preview font download. If by chance you are interested in the Ecuador numbers font, email me at email@example.com for details.
