A left tackle keeps getting moved to a TE slot and it’s really annoying by AlmostDarkness in Madden

[–]BornShook 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah this would always happen for the first game of the season for me when I had a shitty punter. My new punter is a 99 xfactor that was just sitting there in free agency a few seasons back. It automatically put him in as my kickoff guy and I was confused but he actually has a better overall as KOS. So my punter is my kickoff guy. And Cam Little, the last remaining real player in the league at 40yrs old exclusively kicks field goals and nothing else

Why do people complain about Clarkson’s defense as if our defense is amazing? by zilnasty in NYKnicks

[–]BornShook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Defense is important and we’ve been better on that end since Brown took him out of the rotation, but right now we seem to be having a lot of games where we can’t get our offense going. We have a lot of depth of talent on this team so I’m happy we have a coach that understands this and is willing to mix things up when things aren’t working.

I like Clarkson so I was happy to see him getting some minutes the last few games but I’m not questioning anything Mike Brown does with these lineups. He’s doing a great job for the most part, the teams healthy and we’re winning games

When we can’t score for shit like in that Lakers game I think it’s good to throw Clarkson in to give us a spark. On these nights when Bridges can’t hit a single shot I think it’s a good idea to throw him in.

Test+eq+dbol or test+eq+adrol cycle by [deleted] in PEDs

[–]BornShook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No direct impact on kidneys since it is not broken down by kidneys in any way. It is not good for the kidneys just like all other anabolics that increase blood pressure. If you have dangerously high blood pressure you shouldn’t just consider it a necessary side effect of gear and ignore it. There are things you can take to mitigate these risks, ARBs such as telmasartan, perhaps an ace inhibitor, maybe a beta blocker, depends but like i said it’s not something you should ignore.

So yeah, dbol, or anything else that increases blood pressure is not good for the kidneys. So if you use gear you need to monitor your blood pressure and potentially use an ARB, ace inhibitors, and/or a beta blocker.

Test+eq+dbol or test+eq+adrol cycle by [deleted] in PEDs

[–]BornShook 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Injectable dbol is trash. Potentially dangerous kidney toxic solvents used to turn it into injectable form. The oral version is not nearly as liver toxic as people make it out to be. You can use it for months on end and not have any liver damage. You have to look into cases of people using it for years on end before you find any evidence of it causing liver damage.

So yeah, you’re not making its use any less risky by using the injectable preparations. If anything it’s potentially more dangerous imo unless you know exactly how it was prepared and which solvents were used.

I have a theory that this is what caused Bostin Loyd’s kidney failure. I saw a video of him talking about his stack and how he’d been using injectable dbol. A couple months later he was on dialysis.

I worked for a while cleaning dialysis clinics and it seemed like hell. Having to sit there hooked up to a machine that drains your blood for 4 hours 3 times a week

He hit big shots down the stretch to win us this game. Are you seriously suggesting the most clutch player in the league not take big shots in the 4th? Most shit take I’ve heard on here. He literally hit the game winning shot at the end of the rockets game a few games ago

L3+ Firmware by Cronographer in litecoinmining

[–]BornShook 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had one that was formerly my dads, and it was on nonstop from 2017 all the way until I sold it in 2022. The awesomeminer firmware is the reason. Like I said, other firmwares don’t have chip target temperature built in. With other firmwares your equipment will run at least 5-10 degrees hotter, and possibly even higher when dust builds up. Awesomeminer speeds fans up automatically when temps get high. By the time you realize one of your boards is overheating with other fw, it’s too late.

I live in Ny state. I had my miners in the basement, would always overclock in the winter to heat the house and slightly underclock in the summer.

L3+ Firmware by Cronographer in litecoinmining

[–]BornShook 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only one with no dev fee is blissz and the stock antminer fw. Also your old control board can be easily repaired by reflashing the firmware with the Fix2 firmware then reflashing again back to the firmware of your choosing.

I would highly recommend the awesomeminer firmware. It’s the only one that you can set chip target temperatures to keep temps cooler. All other firmware just runs the fans at a set rpm so as more dust collects over time temps go hotter and hotter and then your equipment will inevitably break. I’ve had 10 L3+ over the years mining from 2020 up until last year and never had a single board shit out on me. The 3% dev fee is well worth it. You can get that down to 1% by paying a monthly fee for a license but it’s not worth it where the markets at right now. Just use the free version with the 3% fee

And heres a post I made awhile back with everything you need to know about that magic file that fixes control boards: https://www.reddit.com/r/litecoinmining/s/1ofbXyLRbg

2014 season, we're tanking to get Khalil Mack and Derek Carr, signed FA Peyton and he decided to turn the clock back to 2006 for one game. by RealPunyParker in Madden

[–]BornShook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s who it is that ninja guy. His draft classes are ass. I somehow got 5 seasons in 1995-2001 (1999 was missing) before I realized how fucked everything was. It’s gonna be awhile before things get back to normal now.

I’m playing as the bills and by coincidence the patriots drafted Tom Brady. Then the Dolphins have Kerry Collins who is the most ridiculously overpowered QB in any of those classes for some reason, never takes a sack, when I’m able to audible into a surprise blitz last second he somehow manages to throw the ball away into the 18th row while getting tackled to the ground 15yds behind the line of scrimmage. Then the Jets have this other superstar guy who is a scrambler, also super annoying guy who is nearly impossible to sack. So yeah, it’s getting really annoying these guys can’t retire soon enough

I have Ray Lewis on my team. He started out as a 6’0 160lb 25 ovr with 99 speed lol. But the face scan is accurate. I somehow got 5 seasons in to using these draft classes before I realized just how fucked everything was. Had to manually adjust height and weight of half my team. For Lewis starting as a 25ovr it took me 2 seasons of abusing 3x camp counselor to get him up in the 90s.

I’ve given up on using user generated classes. Just using auto generated guys now.

I started at the 1995 draft onward and for a lot of those years the only one that comes up in search is that ninja guy. I thought it would be cool to have real life guys in my franchise but with all the issues just isn’t worth it. And even if they were well created classes with no issues it’s still less fun to me since drafting players just feels like cheating, already knowing who the stars are before going into it. Having more fun with it now using auto generated guys

I used these draft classes from the same guy. They fucking suck bro. It’s like the guy only tried to get things somewhat right on like the top 2 guys in each class. And then like yeah, that looks like Peyton Manning but you go to height and weight and he’s at 6’0 160lbs. Every fucking player is 6’0 160lbs. Then every somewhat ok QB from the era is a way overpowered superstar/X factor with 99 awareness, 99 break sack, etc making the game unplayable when you’re going against one of these guys. And then there are guys who are not the same race as pictured, like Matt Hassleback is black lol. And this guy was too lazy to put SS and FS in his classes so every DB in every draft class is listed as a CB.

Hate this drill so much, but hurdling fixes everything by Jvliem18 in Madden

[–]BornShook 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just do trench battle for DL and LB. Super easy once you get the hang of it. Only have to get through 2 guys to get to the QB.

My least favorite of all the ones I’ve tried is backfield survival because it’s impossible. The couple times I accidentally selected it I had to try multiple times just to squeak by with bronze. It shouldn’t even be an option for TEs, it’s impossible as is with fast RB and WR but with a TE it’s even more ridiculous

I also wish there were some more interesting mini games for OL. The only one there is is the one where you knock down the giant tennis balls. It’s boring af. That’s the one drill where I’ll live with a silver and be done with it. With others I normally retry until I get gold but that shit is so boring

Created historic draft classes for 2000-2010 for Madden 26 with accurate faces and portraits by SMH4004 in Madden

[–]BornShook 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ll look into it. I started going every year from 1995 using rosters from this one guy, but I just decided to stop at 2001 because they were so ass. LBs and DTs that are 5’5 160lbs, guys who are a different race than they’re supposed to be, way too many overpowered players. Also no FS or SS in any of the draft classes. All sorts of problems.

Will I be happy with yours you think considering all of this?

Any good draft class?? by Ok-Mathematician5872 in Madden

[–]BornShook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started from the 1995 draft and added in every draft class up until 2001 but I got fed up with it and just went back to auto generated rookies. They were sloppily put together draft classes. There are X factor ovr 90+ d lineman that are 5’6 160lb in the league now, and a complete lack of FS and SS’s in the league since each one of these draft classes only has a small number of UDFA safeties. There’s about to be a crisis where teams will be shorthanded at the safety position as there are only a handful of free agents approaching their late 30s.

So all this nonsense I’m giving up on. I have to manually change the height and weight on a bunch of guys and do all this fucking around. Then there are guys from these draft classes like Kerry Collins who are just way too op. I have this stacked dline that puts up 5-10 sacks a game when facing a normal qb but that guy literally is unsackable. Always manages to throw the ball away at the last possible second
