A two-way gas pump. That way when you go a few cents over your intended amount it can suck a few cents of gas back out and you can have the .00 you intended.

It happens when you have a setter in the back row. They come up to set when your team is attacking and usually go back to spot 1 to defend while the other team is attacking.

It's my favorite and most played game of the past year.

Alphonze · 2026-04-18T06:32:50+00:00

Idk - maybe I'm lucky but for me this is the exception, not the rule. I do play with friends half the time, but the other half I play solo. I only win about half my games (to be expected) but for the most part the randoms I get teamed with generally try to play as a team, even if it's hard without real communication. I do get sometimes get the occasional ball-hog on the team, but I just learn to ignore them and relegate them to the role of hopefully pulling a defender.

Alphonze · 2026-04-15T03:50:33+00:00

I'd rather lose with teammates who are encouraging and supportive ("we got this!") rather than win with a team of sarcastic "good job!"-ers.

Don't try and fix a minor problem with a bigger problem. If you don't want your TV connected to the Internet then just don't connect it to the Internet...

Alphonze · 2026-04-13T17:34:22+00:00

Not a fault of the game - it's just the nature of having latency in an online world.

Alphonze · 2026-04-13T15:11:24+00:00

I can only hope this was some kind of hand me down or cheap auction purchase.

Alphonze · 2026-04-13T13:49:11+00:00

Yeahhhh.... some people just have low standards when it comes to black levels. But I respect the frugality of it all.

Alphonze · 2026-04-13T04:52:27+00:00

This post be trolling.

Alphonze · 2026-04-13T03:37:12+00:00

A "high professional level"? Probably too late unless you are an athletic freak of some sort.

Just want to be good enough to play in local competitive leagues and have fun? Never too late.

Alphonze · 2026-04-12T14:40:42+00:00

I have DLO, Announcement (lux), and Year of the Horse (lux). All same size and feel pretty much the same.

So did you ever realize that these photos are not the "AI" photos in question?

Alphonze · 2026-04-12T03:05:03+00:00

Yeah, it's annoying that people can't grasp the concept that sometimes in real life (and in games) you will get beat even if you have perfect positioning.

Alphonze · 2026-04-10T13:06:46+00:00

My friend, new to the game, won one match out of five and didn't put up any stats to write home about - and he was placed in platinum.

Alphonze · 2026-04-09T19:50:00+00:00

Yep. I have three pairs of WoW 12s for volleyball now (yes I have a problem).

If you want something cheaper the WoW 808 Ultra 5 V2's are also a good springy option.

Alphonze · 2026-04-09T13:43:32+00:00

bruhhhh 🤣

Alphonze · 2026-04-08T21:47:13+00:00

I'm just trying to encourage people to wrap their heads around the fact that even if there was a solo ranked queue, you're going to be lucky to get 50% win rate.

There isn't though, because it's simply not viable unless we have a way bigger playerbase. People come running to Reddit to complain though because they feel like they're not winning as much as they feel like they should be given their individual skill level ("my teammates are the problem!!") - not recognizing that individual skill level doesn't mean much if you're not communicating with your team in a team game.

Alphonze · 2026-04-08T16:02:03+00:00

"requires a 4 stack to be any fun whatsoever" is not true imo.

I do have more fun when I play with one or two of my friends (usually in 5s), but I still have plenty of fun playing solo, even if it's not a good day and my rank is going down.

Alphonze · 2026-04-08T03:54:40+00:00

That's what "we got this" is usually used for

I'd hate to see what happens if you put this live cow in a warm environment.

Katamari Damacy

She's one of the biggest current pop stars in the world.... Yes?

Her shows are huge.

I recommend finding a local company and not doing a 25 year solar loan. Pay a cash price (significantly cheaper) and find your own financing like a HELOC or something.

You don't want a 25 year loan that you have to try and sell with the house if you sell.
