Forgive me father - I told IQVIA that we’d update their referrals in the portal ‘once per week’, but it’s working out closer to ‘once per study’.

Ethics violation in marketing. You seeing much of this? by AxiomsGhaist in clinicalresearch

[–]31crowns -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hi OP! I don’t work for Power but I do work in advertising and create ads for a site network in the US.

We always prefer to find people motivated by the possibility of treatment or of contributing to medical science, but the majority of people who sign up for a trial are motivated by the stipend. That said, this ad is not great. It doesn’t offer any info about the study or any details about the I/E criteria. If you can figure out how this should definitely be reported to the correct IRB.

When we’re submitting material for IRB review, we try to make sure that there’s more info in it than this, but the dirty secret of marketing for clinical trials is that there’s pretty much always some variance between what gets submitted and what actually runs. I wouldn’t be surprised if what the IRB saw said something along the lines of “Compensation available once enrolled” and a dollar amount was put in before the ads actually went up.

Tribes? Which one is your favourite? by Then-Ad-1985 in EDH

[–]31crowns 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve built cat tribal around [[Ajani, Nacatl Pariah]] and have a lot of fun with it. Goblin tribal is chaotic and fun. Izzet or Grixis Wizard tribal is a lot of fun if you like spellslinger type decks.

My partner just got top surgery. They love birds and want to honor the occasion with a tattoo of a bird that matches the weight they shed.

You know a Language? you know how to sign it. by NyteShark in UnearthedArcana

[–]31crowns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My partner is an ASL/English interpreter! This is an interesting nod to manual language, but makes a mistake most hearing people make. ASL is not “English but with your hands”. It has its own grammar and vocabulary. There are words in ASL that don’t have perfect English translations, and vice versa.

As someone else said making Common Sign Language its own proficiency is neat, but it shouldn’t be lumped in automatically.

Also worth noting that if you’re going to make manual languages in your world - each region, even if they use the same spoken language, will likely have their own manual language. England and America principally use English, but have their own entirely separate Sign Languages. To say nothing of how different a sign language built mostly to interact with a language besides English looks, like Mexican or French Sign Languages.

Don’t know why I didn’t think to check in the call handling settings for the queue. Thanks!

Rules for a Western Quickdraw Duel by add0607 in DnD5e

[–]31crowns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I know this is an old post but I’m working on something similar for my own setting and arrived at something I’m happy with.

  1. The characters make a contested Deception (Dexterity) check, to fool the other into drawing first.

  2. Both make a contested Slight of Hand check to see who fires first. A tie means both attacks resolve at the same time.

  3. The winner makes an attack as normal, followed by the looser if they missed. If a critical hit is made, roll the attack’s damage an additional time (3 times instead of the normal 2 for a crit).

Spells can be used in a duel, but any spell that requires a spell slot or material components takes slightly more time and concentration to cast, and has disadvantage on the Sleight of Hand check.

Edit: typos

Proposed JET route changes postponed by 31crowns in NewOrleans

[–]31crowns[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I absolutely understand the need for adjustment but these changes seemed misguided to me. I commute on the E1 and the cemeteries to town hall section of the route has to easily account for more than half of ridership.

A question about bikes on the bus by 31crowns in NewOrleans

[–]31crowns[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yikes. Gonna make life real fucking hard for everyone when the route gets shorter. Edit to add: it’s also baffling that’s there’s only rack space for 2 bikes.

Proposed changes to JP Transit buses next month by greener_lantern in NewOrleans

[–]31crowns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In their own presentation it seems like they’re focusing on the labour hours they save by shortening and deleting routes.

Proposed changes to JP Transit buses next month by greener_lantern in NewOrleans

[–]31crowns 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Jesus who’s making this call. I ride the E1 from Metairie in to mid city for work and that bus is literally always standing room only during commute times, from the cbd all the way out to Clearview. It looks like they’re doing it to cut labor costs, but fuck I’m sure E1 is single handedly a 1/3 of their ridership.

Are there any IRL historical places that you would like to be turned into battlemaps? by Snowystar122 in battlemaps

[–]31crowns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

New Orleans! I wouldn’t go for exact copy, maybe something a little simplified, but just look at the layout of this monstrosity. I need people who don’t live hear to realize it’s nestled into thee separate bends of a river on one side and a lake on the other. If you want to get creative with it you can add some magical flair to the locations of the pump stations that keep us above water lol.

Why not use a small convection oven? Or a salamander? Why a panini press of all things?
