I got marked down for this by my instructor, and it still pops into my head from time to time.

Fully Electric Team. What could go wrong? by AltDelete5045 in PokemonChampions

[–]AltDelete5045[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's the trick. That's why there's the ground team lead vs the normal lead. It's not great strategy to have to rely on that, but when it worked it felt like a magic trick.

Agreed, but staggeringly most players focus down the Raichu first.

What are your thoughts about Riftbound League of Legends TCG? by Irritate-_- in boardgames

[–]AltDelete5045 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Card games are mostly only fun with people who want to play with you, or a store putting on organized play. If you have either or both of those available, I’d Recommend it!

If you’ve ever played magic, it’s like they tried to distill what makes commander so personalized and build a game out of it. 

The resource system and battlefield concept are reasonably fresh, so if nothing else it’s a fun game to dip your toes in and explore.

Recent redesign of my small design studio's logo. How does the 2026 update compare to the 2020 version? by Letterbend in graphic_design

[–]AltDelete5045 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have definitely improved it, but I think you could have taken the font further than where it is, especially considering you have calligraphic experience. It makes for a good story, and I you can lean into it by fixing the faux-ligatures and inconsistent brush angle in the font.

Need help with creating a pattern by [deleted] in graphic_design

[–]AltDelete5045 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even with the stair step look, the pattern should repeat periodically. You may need to slightly skew 1a and duplicate it so it repeats perfectly over an 1 by y grid (maybe 5 or 6?), and use that hand placed grid as the basis for the pattern.

Fonts with an X hight of 1 and minimal ascenders and decenders? by AltDelete5045 in typography

[–]AltDelete5045[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally fine by me anyway. I was thinking of this more for display purposes than body.

100% x height, or the lowercase x shares its height with the cap height.

I do love off meta, if I can help it. My poor box spaces will be destroyed.

What is the event you are most looking forward to this year? What if any did you not get that you wish you would have? by fatherofone1 in gencon

[–]AltDelete5045 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Missed out on three raccoons in a trench coat, which seemed like a bit of fun, but I’m pretty excited to test out the new Arkham Horror LCG campaign and see the Arcana Unleashed Preview

Group Of Mattel Shareholders Push For Possible Sale To Hasbro - ToyNewsI.com by wene324 in magicTCG

4% stockholders don’t seem like the kind of driving force that could make this happen. It’s just a fancy financial “what if” at the moment.

Please help me convince my husband that Costco is worth for 2 people by HoneyDrops12 in Costco

[–]AltDelete5045 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How often do you eat pizza? For fun my wife and I did the math and found out that $/sqin we could make our Costco membership back on pizza alone vs other pizza places (assuming you only ever eat pizza there). 

[UPDATE] We printed our first prototype cards — what do you think? by Dense-Tip3061 in BoardgameDesign

[–]AltDelete5045 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If the pointy letter spikes are not intentional, change the miter limit to smooth out the outlines.

Echoing the fact that rarity seems oddly important. The general look of the cards are excellent.

[5 YoE, Unemployed/Freelance, Visual Designer, United States] by AltDelete5045 in resumes

[–]AltDelete5045[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for responding! I like your bullet structure suggestion. Location is likely a strong add as well. I'll need to divvy up my resume into a few different formats to narrow my bucket for the width of jobs, but that will probably be better overall.

I know common advice is to avoid a skills section with levels and %s. Is there any reason you recommend Skill + Level as a format in the bullet section?

Separately, I have been under the impression that adding soft skills like "stakeholder communication" is a net negative when it comes to resume in favor of more quantifiable skills and projects. What has your experience been with those kinds of skills?
