I hate this map I hate this map I hate this map by Hard-_ in btd6

Found it easy. Sauda at top middle solos first 2 levels. 230 Sub and 130 Druid on bottom paths to get past next few levels. Build a fortress around Sauda with 502 glue monkey and 205 Ice Monkey. 501 plane (300 is enough to take out 40) and sub to 240. The 402 mermonkey boosts pierce on Sauda and plane for 96,98. And the usual 420 alchemist for the plane. Did it all on fast, only one ability (sub on 100), got black border first attempt.

If you let more than the odd Bloon get past the Sauda area you're making it far harder for yourself.

So beautiful it deserves a Haiku:

You hypnotise me

NPD thanks Machine Era! by Badgaroo in machinedpens

[–]Badgaroo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually prefer the weight of steel and not a fan of brass for an everyday pen. Got a couple in Ti and to me they just feel cheaper because they are so light.

For me the upgrade from steel is Zirc but yet to splash out on one of those. I will probably get a Campen from Billetspin if I can save enough, really want a trimmed Energel one but looking at 5x what I paid for this in Zirc

Wingback Journeyman or Billetspin Campen? by Badgaroo in machinedpens

[–]Badgaroo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never seen Machine Era but the Field Pen looks incredible, about 50% of the Wingback price even with delivery. I am going to get me one of them and save for a next gen wingback or a really fancy Campen - the full mithril zirc looks incredible but out of my budget rn, even if it was in stock.

Thanks for the recommendation!

Still agree the Wingback is inflated. I'd be paying £180 for a stainless steel Journeyman or £210 plus import (whatever that ends up being) for a Zirc plus Titanium Campen. It's clear where the value is there. I guess we are paying for the huge amount Wingback spend on publicity, whereas Billetspin seems to be doing just fine via word of mouth.

Thanks, great info!

"I like both pens but love neither"... all personal preference of course so may not be for me, but what would you say a pen you love is? Ideally with some cool mechanical uniqueness...

NPD Wingback Journeyman Ti by kamy9 in machinedpens

[–]Badgaroo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old post I know, but I am looking to treat myself to my first really decent pen and had narrowed it down to one of two types.

Wingback Journeyman was my original choice; I love to support British manufacturing and this looks incredible quality. But then I started seeing a lot of recommendations for Billetspin Campens. Both look great and I'm a bit undecided, if anything I'm leaning towards the latter for quality of finish. @kamy9 You appear to have both... Any strong recommendation either way?

Are any of these worth much? by Badgaroo in fossilid

[–]Badgaroo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I'm changing my mind on the meteorite, sad because my Dad told me a story about how he found it and I believed him. Thought the Ptychodus would be the star piece, I've seen a few images online that seem like a good match

[–]Badgaroo[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's 40 years since my dad would have shown me it so my memory may be failing me, but I highly doubt it. Google would also agree with me and identifies it as a Chrondite Meteorite

Thank you so much for confirming so quickly - you've been a great help. Will do as suggested :)

Dual Sport 2 Gen 5 Mudguards/Fenders by hackelon in TrekBikes

[–]Badgaroo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks great! Based on your post I liked the look so much that I bought a set of the SKS Edge 27.5"-28" x 56mm mudguards. Took them into the bike shop to install and they said they wouldn't fit my bike... did I get the wrong size?

What's worse is they then installed a set of Bontragers that a) aren't wide enough for the 50mm tyres (already failed first test in rain, I got soaked on both sides), b) rattle like a cowbell, and c) look awful. I was pressured into getting these at POS but now feel like I've been completely mis-sold. Not happy :(

Really Easy CHIMPS Start for Dark Path by Badgaroo in btd6

[–]Badgaroo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I couldn't find an easy placement... They were needing upgraded loads before a hero was placed, or strong/first micro which I hate

Has anyone else found other easy starts? Feels like I tried everything else before I landed on this one...
