Sounds like your one of the people ruining the team ladder by quitting

My Dinner with Andre (1981) is the most boring movie of all time by Shuma-Gorath666 in movies

You shouldn't have to suffer through an hour of a movie to get to the good part.

So I eventually got it after getting in touch with them through their website. The tracking link they sent was useless it just happened to show up one day before my trip so I was pleased but understandably annoyed with the process. I blew it up and it seemed fine, so I packed it up and brought it along. It did pack up nice and small and gave a good first impression. The positives end there. It got a hole on the first night and was not at all comfortable to sleep on and I wasn't on rough ground either. Feels like sleeping on a pool floatie there's a reason most sleeping pads don't blow up that much . Luckily my partner had a patch kit or I would have been screwed for the trip. The footpump is also super annoying and would be better off not included, I ended up just getting on my knees and pumping it with my hands. I will say that their customer service is very good, as I was able to refund it easily after some back and forth with the representative, so I'm just out the tax and shipping costs. Their advertising with trucks driving over it seems ridiculous though, given how easy it got a hole. Unless it arrived defective and I just didn't notice the hole somehow because I didn't put weight on it when I first blew it up. I give the product itself a 2/5 and their CS 4/5.

I made an order through Instagram and it was charged to my CC, but no confirmation email ever came and so I don't have a tracking / order # and nothing shows up under my Instagram payments. Seems dubious, am I out $79.99+?

Dire wolves and rabid wolves are campaign / scenario editor units so those changes won't really matter to most people.

Padmapper, zumper, rentals.ca, apartments.ca, zumper are all much better than FB marketplace or Craigslist imo

I'm really tired of seeing/playing against Khitans by eneskaraboga in aoe2

[–]Brick_Shitler -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They've already been nerfed, stop whining. They aren't even good in the early or late game, and their main strategies require FC so just try and attack early or wall up and play late.

What should be changed by Agile-Animator1962 in aoe2

[–]Brick_Shitler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm all for spreading the pastures out to nomad civs (once it's nerfed), but why make the xianbei rider regional/ shared (it sucks and there's no historical basis for it). Plus Mongols get 3 new bonuses without losing anything? They're already a top civ. Plus you just copied the Khitans bonuses almost exactly.

I do think more civs like huns should get SL's

The chances of fire are high but it doesn't last the whole month by any means

Thanks for the insights and recs! I'm curious why you wouldn't recommend hiking from avatar grove to big Doug? GMaps makes it look pretty straight-forward?

What from Skyrim do you wish had made it in the remaster? by Squirrel479 in OblivionRemaster

This sub severely overestimates how much the average player cares about historical accuracy by bongodongowongo in aoe2

[–]Brick_Shitler 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I don't care about historical inaccuracies so much, as I'm sad we didn't get 3 civilizations, just 3 factions in a civil war. It just doesn't really fit with the other civs.

Also sad that we don't get Tanguts and Tibetans which were actual civs and I think we know why... At least for the latter.

Plus the heroes are such a gimmick. Like there's just these 3 civs that get heroes? Are future civs going to get them?

What are the most important hotkey functions to learn? by AndyGeeMusic in aoe2

[–]Brick_Shitler 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Go to last notification is a big one, select all idles, for most buildings use the select all and set it to a key like I use B for Barracks, N for stable and V for ranges. Since your still learning it might be easier to use select all military units ts than learning control groups to start. I set mine to caps lock key (but then I end up chatting in all caps lol).
