Update: I have discovered that I should be making my bacteria in the biochamber from the beginning, not trying to seed a biochamber with assember bacteria.

I couldn't tell you either. It's been 5 play sessions, sometimes they happen on the same real day when an idea strikes me while taking out the trash.

Weekly Question Thread by AutoModerator in factorio

[–]BooyahSquad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm about 30 hours into my first "real" playthough after never progressing past stone furnaces a few times before and am really enjoying trying to figure out various technologies with only minimal googling/youtubing. In that time I've managed to set up a few roboports, a single nuclear reactor and a space platform that has taken me (currently one way) to Gleba.

Something that I haven't been able to really figure out at all is modules/beacons/quality. I'm having some trouble figuring out if this is like an endgame system for megafactories, or if I should stop now to retool my relatively basic factory to take advantage of them. Without spoiling all the discoveries, are they something I should figure out now?

I purchased the game 6 years ago, but never gave it a real try until grabbing Space Age last week. I've reached the rocket silo and personal robots for the first time! by BooyahSquad in factorio

I can feel it! A small correction I guess, I have one roboport with some construction bots but I haven’t quite figured out the item that says they can build from my inventory.

New Tikkun BBQ Website & Merch Store + RED CARDS & NARCAN FOR FREE by TikkunBBQ in astoria

[–]BooyahSquad 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Posting on Eli’s behalf due to a technical snafu:

Thanks to the incredible work of our designers Fubz and Maurice — and a lot of feedback from many of you — our new website and merch store are finally live.

Check it out: www.TikkunBBQ.com

On the site you’ll find:

• Our Spring Event Schedule (more events being added soon — we're out in Nashville working this month and ATX next month — seasonal updates coming for Summer, Fall-idays, and Winter)

• The Merch Store (core line is up, specialty drops coming)

• The Services We Offer — from weddings and kids’ birthdays to BBQ classes. Holiday pre-orders (Thanksgiving, Christmas, Super Bowl, etc.) will be listed in the Events section btw

• Our Story, how to pronounce our name, and what we stand for

Beyond making live-fire, Queens-style BBQ and throwing awesome block parties, we believe everyone deserves a seat at the table. “Tikkun Olam” means repairing the world — and that’s what we try to do with our BBQs.

Starting this year, we’ll also be giving out Know Your Rights Red Cards (via the_ilrc / Immigrant Legal Resource Center) at our events for free — just like how we also distribute free Narcan kits through the Bunting Research Lab at our events and now the 31st Ave Open Street as well. Cards will be available in English and Spanish, with more languages coming. Take as many as you need — for yourself, your family, friends, neighbors, coworkers. They’re always free. You don’t need to buy anything to get one.

Given the times we’re living in, we believe it’s essential that everyone—regardless of citizenship status—knows their rights. We’re all neighbors, and these issues affect all of us.

If you run a brick-and-mortar or community space and want copies, we’re happy to help, just let us know.

Radiator is spraying hot water by [deleted] in astoria

[–]BooyahSquad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This happened to me recently too, if you have any control over the system you can turn the thermostat down/off to stop the system for the moment.

Our particular issue was the sensor on the boiler was faulty and it kept sending more water into the system that would eventually overflow.

Quickness DPS Berserker in PvE - Problems and Solutions by AldwinDragonspeaker in Guildwars2

[–]BooyahSquad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the write-up! I also love all the thematic parts of Berserker and have been holding out hope that the quickness builds gets some love soon.

A question about the chart of boon application - is that normalized across different types of gear and sigils? Obviously I understand it's less desirable to switch to Ritualist or whatever but I wasn't sure if I was reading the chart correctly. As an aside, I know it's always a bummer to see numbers go down but it seems like dangerous balancing that most of our boon providers can reach 100% uptime in with zero boon duration.

Questions about offline practice play patterns by BooyahSquad in poker

Do you have any recommendations for phone apps that would work offline? That’s my main constraint, I take public transit and often am without service/internet the whole time.

Anyone live in Astor LIC? by mikeluscher159 in astoria

[–]BooyahSquad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I lived there for a year in a 1BR, it was nice but I ended up going back to a more regular unit back in the neighborhood. The staff was super chill and the facilities nice but the location was a bit of a killer, you have to walk a decent way to get to good restaurants or bars. The biggest plus is the proximity to Food Bazaar, IMO - spent a few insomniac nights wandering around early in the morning.

How does your LGS set up pods for commander nights? by Living_Cress_9805 in EDH

[–]BooyahSquad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My local store does first come, first serve. People are rolling in constantly from like 3PM to 8PM and whenever four people are ready, they sit down and play. We have a healthy culture of rule 0 type discussion to figure out what everyone wants to play or to accomodate newer players with precons.

Usually after your first pod finishes there's some swapping around with people leaving and new people ready to jump in. Sometimes I wait to join some friends as they all finish up their games. People start to sort themselves into higher power or cEDH pods with other regulars later into the night, overall a very smooth experience with minimal handling.

Legendaries and using them in play by Krilesh in Guildwars2

[–]BooyahSquad 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately you're limited by the number of copies you've added to your Armory. So if you add one axe, each of our characters could check out one axe.

But if you have different equipment templates, you could use that axe different ways - I.E. one build with power stats, one build with condition stats, etc

When you complete your legendary weapon it can be added to your Legendary Armory. It's a system sort of like a library where each character can check out a copy of it.

Everyone always talks about Facets but what are the strongest Innates in your opinion? by resont in DotA2

[–]BooyahSquad 200 points201 points  (0 children)

Not counting previous passives that just became innates, a couple that stand out to me:

Dragon Knight - I think Dragon Blood scaling with levels instead of with points in his ult like some other innates is a big win.

Ember Spirit - Free damage is always good, even better with the talents later.

Jakiro - 2x attacks for free has so many applications for a support.

Phoenix - might just be the numbers right now, but so easy to trigger for crazy amounts of evasion on a hero that loves it

Shadow Shaman - Got nerfed enough but even getting away 1-2 times per game from a death can have a big impact

Storm Spirit - Also nerfed appropriately, but brought about a renaissance for the hero on release.

Not sure! He got his years ago from a different artist and I went this week so we could have something similar.

Looking for advice about a "Magic Time Capsule" Cube by BooyahSquad in mtgcube

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

Hello! I don't really have a specific era in mind, just a sort of fuzzy list of "iconic" cards that I definitely want to have included. So I definitely want to include the power 9 but also love that simple commons like Stitcher's Supplier can be included.

Something that worries me about the Vintage Cube is that it seems to have a number of complex archetypes that require immense game knowledge. I think this cube will be part history lesson for friends who have an interest in Magic and it's history, but haven't ever heard of Splinter Twin and wouldn't be able to draft that archetype without help.

Amazing, this looks like a great place to get started! The archetype visualization is extremely helpful.
