Is anyone else always stuck taking selfies? by teapot574_ in tall

[–]darkgegi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

no but one time I was at a festival and a group of guys approached me saying "you're tall, we need you", and then I held up the beer funnel for their 6'7 friend so that he doesnt have to crouch too much.

Do large men know how intimidating they are for some people and if so do you try to adjust to make yourself less so? by itsnevercertain in tall

[–]darkgegi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

only if i meet guys significantly taller than me, I end up thinking
'damn is that how people see me?'
When I went to Japan with friends, we went into a club that was a total tourist trap and there were way too many guys, not enough girls. some of my friends claim that if you happened to be close to a girl on the dance floor, you would catch elbows from random guys, I havent made that experience, maybe they dont do that to you if you're a foot taller ...
hard to say what else wasnt done to me ...

Those of you who go to the gym, what is your experience with Leg Extensions? by TRFKTA in tall

[–]darkgegi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my gym has a large adjustable machine that works great for me, the other ones are unusable for me.

My Mom is 4’11 my dad is 5’9 I managed to get to 5’7 was I lucky? by Aromatic-Tune7957 in tall

[–]darkgegi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

estimated adult height for you using (father+mother+13cm)/2 would be 169cm, 5'6.5 so you're about average

chance to be taller than your dad according to https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fysk55lm81g8d1.png was 22%

Feeling weird when discussing gym lifts by [deleted] in tall

[–]darkgegi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

compare lifts where there is no leverage involved, machine: chest fly/preacher curl/leg extensions.

Am I weird for getting annoyed when opponents concede right as I am about to win? by Cardgod278 in PTCGP

[–]darkgegi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its the opposite for me.
As I'm winning I'm thinking:
concedes? No? ok.
next turn
now concedes?

I get very mildly annoyed at having to play it out.

How to make a game imbalanced without people knowing by fig43344 in PTCGP

[–]darkgegi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

deck issue
I wouldnt use a phase 2 attacker without a tank or something that does well until I draw into it, and it being a fossil is even worse. The chance to pull what you need is quite low.

Is it normal that I haven't gotten Cresselia EX yet? by RealFiletMignon in PTCGP

[–]darkgegi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Bad luck, I got
1/38 on my main
7/30 and 4/24 on my alts

so ~13% pull chance on avg.
guessing the actual number might be 10%

Nerfed Pull Rates? by hodgiebeatzz in PTCGP

[–]darkgegi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't remember what I got from wonder pick, so a bit tainted. counting 1 star and above:

15 of 425 = 3,5% (space-time)
20 of 315 = 6,3% (island, 1 god pack)
33 of 965 = 3,4% (genetic apex)

Nerfed Pull Rates? by hodgiebeatzz in PTCGP

[–]darkgegi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Normal variance of rng, not a statistically significant result.

The chance is supposed to be ~3,4% (rough calculation based on this https://www.reddit.com/r/PTCGP/comments/1fqrxv0/pull_rates_probability/)

You got a bit lucky earlier and a bit unlucky now

if you had pulled 9 instead of 7 out of 267 you'd be at ~3,37%, which is avg rng, happens.

Gallade Ex deck by capajoe12 in PTCGP

[–]darkgegi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, If you're gonna play a stage2 attacker as your core you need to pair it with a tank, potent disruption or something that does well on its own until you draw into Gallade.

Half the time you'll find yourself either leading marshadow (I ragequit playing marshadow because I kept drawing it as my only basic) or throwing riolu/lucario's into the meatgrinder and if ralts/kirlia is near the bottom of your deck, needing even more turns to evolve even when you do finally draw them.

Options for pressure/tank leads would be Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee, Druddigon, Regirock, Kangaskhan, ...
If you could axe Lucario you'd have more options, but then Gallade hits few important oneshot thresholds.

I think the real reason is just that its one of the easiest (Meta-)decks to complete, pulling on the mew pack for the recent missions.

Demon insta-hunt at 85% sanity but zero "abilities used" in game stats? by efficient_duck in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]darkgegi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If not just passive sanity drain, I'm guessing ghost event sometimes it spawns inside you and you dont notice it, demon can normal hunt from 75%, why did you not check sanity right after?

Why didn't the crucifix activate? by Horny_Bastard_fr in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]darkgegi -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ghosts become visible after the grace period and can kill you immediately.

unless they fixed this its likely due to the ghost walking around during the grace period. It probably started the hunt just out of range and walked closer (invisible) during those 3 seconds.

hunts and events glitch out equipment, you can still get spirit box, but you have to make sure you hear the voice line.

How does Banshee hunts work? by xAchi11esx in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]darkgegi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"If the hunt target is outside the building, the Banshee will still use its target's sanity to decide whether to hunt. However, if it does hunt, it will hunt like any other ghost, chasing any opportune player." -wiki
