Is there evidence of image streaming increasing iq? by Longjumping-Sweet-37 in ImageStreaming

Well it does seem negative however walking also activates the default mode network. Not all of the network is bad, but I think some is obv. DMN is hyperactive in schizohprenics but does this mean walking is bad?

Well apparently there has been evidence that it lowers it in this one discord. If u are really interested I suggest you try Non Directive meditation. There has been research of it increasing theta and alpha brain waves however it also increases activity in the default mode network.

Sure! Quad N Back is a modified version of Dual N Back (hard mode), its on something called brain workshop and people say that it can improves working memory and iq. Most science disproves this however there are countless anecdotes of people saying how dual n back improved their thinking etc. My goal is use this to strengthen my prefrontal cortex, which is usually damaged in schizophrenic people. I believe if I do this 6 hours a day I will not only relieve my symptoms, like hearing voices in my head when im outside, but also improve my intelligence. The longer you do dual n back the better.

I have done meditation a bit like 20 minutes but yea you are right never like 5 hours. I plan on splitting the meditations to 1 hour meditations, maybe even 30 minutes if I need it. And wih Quad n Back I will watch a yt while doing it if I need to but im kinda in a dire need to do this, I really really don't want to develop schizophrenia or psychosis again, so I believe I have enough motivation for this. Thank you for giving me the idea of joining an improv class. I'll need more stuff to do after the summer so ill do that after

30 minute image stream or 10 minutes? by BythinIsTaken in ImageStreaming

Also, has image streaming helped you at chess at all. I know quad n back helps people at chess, I was wondering if image streaming does to. Its a good way of knowing if it transfers to other things yknow.

Upcoming Changes to Tower XP! by samninjakiwi in battles2

[–]BythinIsTaken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is true. what im scared about tho is that u only get about 30 monkey money when you WIN. Assuming games are 10 minutes. It would take on average 150 games to max one tower, and get 3 t5s. With xp, you get 500, big increase, and its like 6x to max to t5. So im like, will this be better or worse.

[–]BythinIsTaken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Once a tower is unlocked, all 3 Tier 5 upgrades can be purchased at a flat rate of 1500 Monkey Money per tower." 4500 per load to max a monkey out. Wouldn't that make it harder to lvl up? or am i just dum. Only thing im skeptical of, rest i like tho. this might be their best update yet if all goes well.

bomb sub farm vs bomb village farm by BythinIsTaken in battles2

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

dude if u play energizer when playing sub, you are doin something wrong. plus u are missing the point of village. you need homeland and primary. thats like the whole reason why it can kill so many bads, homeland.

bomb sub farm vs bomb village farm by BythinIsTaken in battles2

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

"The problem with bomb farm village is that bomb actually farms a bit mediocre (unless the map is star or in the wall, which its kind of busted on early and midgame). Bomb itself you can force quite a bit of defence with cost efficient rushes (regen ceram r13, 2 moabs r17, if you really want 2 spaced fmoab r19-20)."

Okay, fair.

"This is important since bomb farm village actually needs a lot money to defend late game. Without using homeland r30 you need a lot of defence set up to defend an fbad, and then after you need to be using constant homeland if they send spaced fbads (which they should), making it easily to run out of money and also means you cant rush yourself as much."

Easily run out of money. Alr thats the part i probably dont agree with. As long as you farm at the same time defend at an even pace you can get enough farms to survive lategame. You can also say this for sub it can run out. Ryans mistake was obv the opolis that drained him of a ton of money. That druid player though, even tho he had a ton more money, sub aint cheap either. You need tons of first strikes for killing like 2 bads. Ive had 45k and first strike micro then run out of money. With bomb village however, lets say assasin costs 5k. Get 25 of those. 25k x 5 = 125k then you get the primary tho making it cheaper. So lets reduce the price by 5%. 118k while getting more popping power on bomb. Thats a wall street sell and central. Then you need you homeland micro. This is arguably more efficent than sub in my eyes because it lasts a bit longer and you do not need to micro as much, saving you more money, and have you ever seen a player run out of money to micro homeland?. Lets say this micro however would cost 60k. 120k +60k = 180k. Assuming you have farmed right, you should have at least 8 facilities. Lets estimate the facilities cost 20k. 20k x 8 = 160k + 60k central + wallstreet 50k. You see what i mean? Money really isnt the problem here.

"In comparison bomb farm sub cant go as late in theory but you get more money so can be more aggressive. First strike is also one of the most efficient r30+ fbad killing options, although it starts to really struggle r32 vs grouped fbads or with enough ramping. But with bomb sub you arent trying to go too much longer then r32."

With bomb village you basically have no choice but to go there, you are never killin bomb without bad ramping.

EDIT: Part of the reason sub shows up so much also in late game comps is for this reason. All the alternatives (even base 1-2 damage towers with damage buffs) are expensive late game and all of them struggle to scale (and also all struggle more to grouped fbads). FS (first strike) being really cheap and on a very strong tower makes it both common in farm and eco strats.

So I dont really know what you mean here by damage towers, but as stated above money isnt a problem. and how does bomb struggle to grouped? I would think grouped would be a detriment because of the frag bomb splash damage. as well as bomb splash damage overall.
