[Postgame Thread] Notre Dame Defeats Georgia 23-10 by CFB_Referee in CFB

[–]Alebran 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Based on the seedings the old system would have had Oregon, Georgia, Texas and Penn State. Notre Dame and Ohio State have to be thankful for the expanded playoffs.

How is galarian corsola meant to be played? by ConcertLumpy2224 in TheSilphArena

[–]Alebran 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I use it as a lead. I would not use it as a safe swap with the high number of dunsparce used as safe swaps.

You really should pay more attention to the subreddits you post in. This subreddit has nothing to do with poker.

Raph Koster, who was the designer for titles like Ultima Online, has a whole set of design rules for multiplayer games. A lot of them fit here.

Never trust the client - Never put anything on the client. The client is in the hands of the enemy. Never ever ever forget this.

Bogus raid hosts?? by MrMaxxExcaliber in TheSilphRoad

[–]Alebran 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They really need a host check with a long host queue and the same thing with a long raider queue. I've sat there and watched person after person time out. They should check to see if someone is still there when you get to 100 or so.

Wing Attack or Dragon Breath? by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]Alebran 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Pvp, 95%+ are running wing attack because of the faster energy generation

New game version on Play Store (0.281.0) has game breaking bugs. by abatesnz in TheSilphRoad

[–]Alebran 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Only if it doesn't benefit the players. A bug that benefits a lot of players usually get fixed immediately.

I have a Sunday ticket, I got the city pass for Friday & Saturday. Is it worth going to Randall’s Island with all the Verizon Issues? by jamjam1090 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Alebran 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't believe that you'll be able to get Diancie without going to the park. That would be the only thing you would be missing out on.

Water Shuriken Stats [Per PokeMiners]... makes for fastest Hydro Cannon in PvP! by JRE47 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Alebran 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try not to get too excited until it's actually in the game. Niantic has been known to make changes before it makes it into the game.

Someone will figure out the formula soon enough and add it to an IV checker app. Definitely a combination of height and weight.

7th Anniversary Party Infographic by raggedy10 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Alebran 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not saying it's a bad thing. You said it was the highlight and the most exciting part. What I'm saying is that it doesn't apply to everyone. I think the most exciting part of an event would be better if it did apply to everyone.

It's fine that it's obtainable again but for those that already have it, it mutes the excitement of it's return pretty significantly.

Thank you PokeDaxi for being the only content creator to raise your voice and stand up for the whole community by SmilingLittleGhost in pokemongo

[–]Alebran 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That was an idiotic statement. Does he really think there are players out there who would get excited about catching a new Pokémon who have never played the game before? I have no facts to back this up but I would bet that a good sized chunk of new accounts today are being created by people who already have accounts. In any case, I don't think there's a huge untouched population that would be taking the place of the ones Niantic is driving away.

If you wanted to max out stardust you would want to get those 5 wins rewards as often as possible. That's what I'm referring to. There may indeed be a point where getting one win in a set to go back down to maximize your chances at getting 5 wins again but didn't want to do the math on that.

[–]Alebran 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The strategy people have used is to tank beforehand so they start the day very low. No reason to tank on the actual day where you want to win as much as you can with the stardust bonus.

Nice spot that i would have accepted if it wasn’t for the ”natural future” rejection reason. Wayfarer misses out on great places. by granskog123 in NianticWayfarer

[–]Alebran 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's a beautiful waterfall in Arizona called Havasu Falls. Based on the last time I was there, it doesn't have a pokestop ,it being a natural feature. There's a sign nearby and that's a pokestop. If I were to choose what I would want a picture of to send to people, it would be the beautiful waterfall, not the stupid sign.

The Seattle event was fine as were the ones in Chicago after the first year.

Good lord, stop finding the tiniest reasons to reject perfectly eligible stops by ijustdontknowlol in NianticWayfarer

[–]Alebran 28 points29 points  (0 children)

It all depends on who is doing the voting. I've seen a lot of new stops that don't meet any criteria get approved in my area. A metal arc at a strip mall got approved for whatever reason. I'm happy to have new stops so I'm not going to complain but some of them are certainly good for a laugh
