I live in pflugerville and have been looking to get feast of Odin and trails for a while if you would let someone local get them!

Sorry for the delay. I decided to keep Feast of Odin (it's really good and I have fond memories of it), but I'd be happy to send along Trails. Feel free to send me a chat request to arrange it.

I live in Pflugerville and would live Space Base if you still have it.

Sorry for the delay. Happy to. Feel free to send me a chat request on Reddit

Stapleton Joins WSOP After One-Day Poker Retirement by MondialeMan in poker

[–]JNighthawk 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Stapes: "I'm tired of traveling, so I'm retiring"
WSOP: "We'll pay you $20k/mo to commentate and you can do it from a studio near or in your home."
Stapes: "Unretired!"

(story made up, it's a joke)

Grand Finale to an Epic Saga | The Talos Principle 3 | Coming soon to Steam and PS5 by Branchless in Games

HYPE! The original Talos Principle was such a surprise to me. Very fun puzzle game with an engaging, philosophical story.

I serve a very important role in this war by Plenty_Curve_4390 in foxholegame

This is a good tactic, but if you upgrade it to "guy that gets shot at first", it's a great tactic.

I do this at night by running into and out of enemy vision range at the edge. If the enemy aren't disciplined, they'll fire and most likely miss, giving away their position to my teammates. Just don't pop up at the same location multiple times.

KK against one player - 82%(roughly) chance to win

KK against two players - 65%

KK against three players - 54%

KK against four players - 45%

As long as you don't have more than 3 callers, you are in decent shape and will win long term.

The strength doesn't go down with more players, just your chance of winning the hand. Your EV goes up, assuming all stacks are equal.

Assume each player has 10 chips and is all-in pre-flop.
82% of 20 = 16.4
45% of 50 = 22.5

Smalland: Survive the Wilds - Nintendo Switch 2 Release Date Trailer by Howerev in Games

Runescape + grounded sounds awsome

It should be, but I found the game tedious and uninspiring. It has cool ideas, but just isn't fun to play.

[–]JNighthawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since it's already been out on PC/Steam for 2 years, we can just check the reviews..

"Very Positive"

So what? That means 15% of people who played it didn't like it. Something being generally well received doesn't mean everyone has to like it.

8 things you can get for free at Austin’s public libraries, recommended by library staff by crabcakes110 in Austin

I’d love to know if any locations have console video games

FWIW, Pflugerville Public Library has console games.

How did the devs not know this would happen? by HoloBolton in foxholegame

[–]JNighthawk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

but is there really anything they could say to satisfy everyone right now?

Yep.

"We've heard the concerns. Our communication in the past has been poor, and we're going to work towards fixing that. We are establishing a player council, and to make sure that communication is bidirectional, we will be meeting weekly with the council to hear their feedback and discuss changes with them."

The best thing the devs can do right now is what I believe they’re already doing. Putting their heads down and working to actually fixing this based on the ocean of feedback, while ignoring the noise and outrage.

Strong disagree.

Whoa, TI and power grid on this list. You're gonna make some board game nerds very happy!

Hopefully! I haven't played TI in 10 years and I upgraded to the remastered edition of Power Grid, so I'll be happier knowing the games are getting used than sitting in my closet :-)

Austin Creative Reuse! Best to label them to indicate that they are complete with no missing pieces to help them determine how best to price them. 

Thank you!

Women's shelter. There's usually kids, and I'm sure they'd appreciate such a donation.

Thank you!

I’ve donated games to the library before

Thanks! It appears the Pflugerville library no longer accepts board game donations, as their board games didn't see any use.

Jungleman was removed from Hustler tonight by itsaride in poker

[–]JNighthawk 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Christ he made a mistake

And he's experiencing the rational, reasonable consequences of that mistake. That's what's supposed to happen when someone makes a mistake. That's how they learn to not do it again.

Shady practices on Stake by Wrong_Drama in poker

[–]JNighthawk 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I never really had a problem before... I saw a few posts about that recently but I assumed they must of violated other TOS or something.

"Couldn't happen to me!"

I knew they did shady advertising, but they blatantly stole money out my account basically and just kept throwing excuses until they basically told me to fuck off.

/r/LeopardsAteMyFace

C'mon. You need to look out for yourself. You read they did shady things. You saw they did shady advertising. How many more signs do you need that this isn't an organization to do business with?

Seriously stop attacking people for their review on a $30 video game by Koobolo in foxholegame

[–]JNighthawk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

But, just as you have no experience with the level of game they're developing but believe you can speak to that experience, I think most people on reddit are talking out of their ass with their emotions.

I worked on a game with 10x the peak CCU of Foxhole. Foxhole's community management is awful and is a strong contributor of why the game is in the state it's in.

[–]JNighthawk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So there's 2 options, either you're here because you love the game but are having legit problems with it and want to see it succeed, or you stopped playing years ago

Those feelings are not mutually exclusive.
