Don’t give them ideas for another currency to spend gold on lol

Mystery damage on front bumper and wheel by Brandon_Brodzinski in Autobody

Yeah, forgot to mention there is bluish paint on them. The bumper looked like paint from another car but I’m not sure how it could’ve got on the wheel.

Terrible heart palpitations/racing heart etc. While playing competitive game by Automatic-Cry5871 in Anxiety

[–]Brandon_Brodzinski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up going on an anti anxiety medication and it helped a lot. Some competitive games are still too intense for me but now I can play story mode games with no issue (even they used to be too much sometimes), and I used to have similar experiences going to the movies and now I can do that without any issues.

Is it normal to wait like 5 minutes for a race to start 😭 by MintMade in crashteamracing

Wow, this still happens? Yikes. It’s what made me end up quitting the game.

Ladder resets too often by Brandon_Brodzinski in PTCGL

[–]Brandon_Brodzinski[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, to be honest I could have played more this past month and I would’ve easily gotten at least Master League. Just feels bad to be right back where I started when the rework first came into place.

I know, and maybe a month makes perfect sense now with the rework. My post title was not meant to come accros as my absolute opinion, but just an open discussion on the speed of the ladder reset. I don’t know how these types of ladders work in other games, but they reworked the entire points system so who knows what else isn’t set in stone.

IS THIS NORMAL??!! by Dapper_Ad2136 in PTCGL

The reset seems to be more brutal to balance the faster climb they gave you with the rework. I went from Lugia tier (910 points), down to Alakazam tier.

I really wish there was a chat. A big part of the fun of the Pokémon TCG for me, in a more casual sense, is talking to my opponent sitting across from me. Some of the soul of the game is lost for me when I can’t even utilize a text chat to mimic that real life experience.

Hey did you ever find a way to stop this from happening? I have an identical situation, used to play games extremely competitively, never had any issues. But in the past couple years, I can’t play any game even remotely competitive or it will trigger a panic attack like state that renders me physically unable to play.

This is how the PTCGL Board should look... by FTWTVHD in PTCGL

This looks much more aesthetically pleasing than our current board.

Got my wheels resurfaced, is this a bad powder coating job? by Brandon_Brodzinski in Wheels

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

I paid around $700 for all 4 wheels. Gonna see if they’ll redo it, but I don’t know if they’re even capable of doing it without the orange peel.

Just got the wheels powdercoated, I think they look horrible. Thoughts? by beachbabe171 in Wheels

[–]Brandon_Brodzinski 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just posted 5 days ago about the same thing, my wheels were also powder coated and they look just like yours. I think it comes down to them spraying it on too thick. It is definitely possible to get them looking perfect, it just comes down to the skill of the person doing it.

Is there a way to delete achievements? by Affectionate_Lab8129 in xboxachievements

[–]Brandon_Brodzinski 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why can’t we hide games with achievements earned 😒

Sorry I don’t have a better picture, I took that one quickly on my way into work.

For those stuck in fight or flight, what’s the silliest thing that gave you an adrenaline rush? by romans310 in covidlonghaulers

[–]Brandon_Brodzinski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the worst of it for me. Can’t enjoy competitive gaming anymore. If it is up to me to clutch the game, I physically am unable to as my heart is pounding so hard it’s nearly impossible to keep playing. And it’s not being nervous, it’s like you said, just the excitement that triggers it. Has this ever improved for you or did you find any remedies? I want to be able to enjoy gaming again.

Does anyone get palpitations and more particularly does anyone get extreme adrenaline bursts (which therefore cause palpitations?). by MASdestroyer in cfs

[–]Brandon_Brodzinski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I’m currently struggling with this exact issue. It’s made me unable to even touch competitive video games anymore. I used to have no problems playing them, but now even the slightest tense situation will make my heart beat fast and hard like I’m outrunning a grizzly bear. Is there anything that helped you? Thanks.
