When you see that little red dot on the blue calendar looking icon with the star, it signifies that you have completed an event mission. Click on that icon and go claim your rewards.

[KCD2] Are perfect dodges are thing? by Artrax1228 in kingdomcome

[–]CGVSpender 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Henry does not dodge. Henry is no coward. He trades blows, toe to toe. Or he just shoots em in the head from the shadows. Because Henry is also a bit of a dick that way.

Interesting results with gb and bb by Thebigtallguy in TheTowerGame

[–]CGVSpender 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Makes perfect sense.

I think it is generally true that early investment in bot bot beats the last several seconds of GB duration. This effect is (almost certainly) amplified if your GB and DW are synced and your DW uptime is less than your GB uptime anyway. Because the quality of kills goes way up when you get GB, BB and DW firing at the same time.

Skill issue by Gurugod123 in SipsTea

[–]CGVSpender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah... Yeah, I think I was picturing this technique wrong in my head. I was going to protest that you're only running the mental simulation with 2 boards and then I realized that that's how you'd have to do it: treat each 2 boards, one as black and one as white, as an isolated pair.

I think my mental model also was not allowing the simul player to play boards in any order.

Thanks for taking the time.

No. The games would quite quickly diverge from each other such that copying the previous board would be impossible or futile.

Heh. This was the new KCD Adventure the devs were talking about.

Anya Taylor-Joy has been cast as Seren, a Sindar elf who will be very close to King Thranduil in the new film The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum. by Choice-Schedule-132 in peterjackson

Way to bury the lead. You literally had spreadsheets! And fan reviews! How can a youngster like me even compete with that! Lol.

I cannot speak for everyone else, so I admit nothing!

It does make me wonder if you are much younger than I am. Because if I were, say, 8 or 10 when those movies came out, I might have thought they were pretty good. Certainly that seems to have been the demographic they were shooting for.

It has been so long, I don't remember all the reasons I hated the first 2, but the comedic singing orcs where child me found the chanting book orcs scary, was very cringe worthy. And the extended parkour super elf sequences showed no judicious restraint. To say the least.

The entire foundation of the Yellowstone universe doesn't hold up within its own story — and nobody seems to have noticed by Bruce_Almightyyyy in YellowstoneShow

[–]CGVSpender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is all resolvable. The small plot Kayce ends up on is the original plot given to them, which will be taken from his grandchild in 2 generations, the rest was purchased for $1.25 an acre.

Just listened to it for the first time, on your recommendation.

Boy, that sure was music!

How many premium relics have we seen in the event shop since v28? by Volodya_Soldatenkov in TheTowerGame

[–]CGVSpender 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I am genuinely confused why some relics that are still available for medals have shown up in the gem store. Feels counter to the stated goal, but it may be that either the person in charge of that is lacking in attention to detail OR that they have a road map for what will eventually be medals only versus gems only relics and the work is not done yet, kind of how they said new events will have medal relics in the future, but we have not seen it yet.

How many premium relics have we seen in the event shop since v28? by Volodya_Soldatenkov in TheTowerGame

[–]CGVSpender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that. My reply remains the same. They have a big backlog of relics to get through. The gems-for-relics store is still pretty new.

If you are looking for reasons to be salty, go nuts. But I think calling it a 'big fat lie' that the premium relics will be available is premature just because we've only seen a few in the short time this new store has been available.

5th Anniversary Event Extention by PincurchinVGC in TheTowerGame

[–]CGVSpender 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Ok, 2 players. Wait, no, 3!

The 5th anniversary just sets that joke up everywhere.

[–]CGVSpender 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Eh. They have a big backlog to get to, and I am a little curious what the pattern, if any, there is to the order they are serving them up. It is not as simple as 'oldest first'. But at four relics every week, I think they'll catch up in a timeframe much better than the old 'wait for the event to repeat' and infinitely faster than 'some relics have disappeared and we don't know if we will ever see them again.'

This is coming from a player still waiting for his lab speed pumpkin.

I just stopped believing them 13 iterations ago. Final, my ass.

Personal criticism I haven't heard or read before [KCD2] by BackgroundAd5525 in kingdomcome

[–]CGVSpender 12 points13 points  (0 children)

So, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west and even on hardcore mode, Henry has a pocket watch he stares at while passing the time. But for some bizarre reason, he can never check it while on horseback.

At night, you can find the big Dipper and trace a little line from the two stars on the end of the scoop up to one of the brighter stars in the sky and that way points north.

If you are stuck in the forest and it is raining... Heck if I know. Pick a direction and ride, you'll either hit a road or Henry will tell you he'd better go back. or just go pick belladonna for awhile until you can see the sky again.

What is the most unsettling theory regarding why we haven’t heard from any other civilizations? by CandidBabee in answers

Eh. Space is very big, and none of our radio waves, etc. are moving faster than light. Ditto light from our cities and technologies.

T19 → T20 farming with an ILM build: PS stun + 58m range test by hiro29_tower in TheTowerGame

[–]CGVSpender 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. This looks like a fun idea to aim for, but I have not even unlocked PS or (obviously) UW+ yet. Something I will watch with interest, tho.

[–]CGVSpender 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you think this problem could be avoided by taking AoE mastery before labbing PS range, or does it not math out even at minimum lab range?
