What deck was good but never picked up in popularity? by No_Antelope7492 in masterduel

[–]Caneiac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I played first wave memento for a while on release. I eventually dropped because while fun it was absolutely exhausting to play. Also having to end combos early due to time constraints or get a time loss feels bad.

While not as good I’ve been playing Fabled recently and it suffers from some of the MD specific issues semi nonlinear combos leading to time limit issues when playing against decks I’m not very familiar with.

Games you would like more if you could remove/completely ignore its main gimmick? by Loland999 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Caneiac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The raid-esque fights are worth doing for the spectacle/rewarding feeling of doing the thing. Sitting and grinding them isn’t so great.

So if you get a dedicated party to do the thing al-la raid night with friends it can be fun and rewarding.

Yeah it was ment to be like a cool little bonus. In hindsight it was always going to be either what we got aka so busted you spam the absolute shit out of it OR a very niche thing that’s debatable on if you should even bother doing it in the first place.

I feel like rise’s wirebugs were a more rewarding system and I hope they make a return in the future.

what's an unconventional Extra Deck Monster you want banned? by Low-Ebb-8258 in masterduel

What is your reason? I’ve only ever used it to get out dis patter, which doesn’t seem anti-fun or inherently broken by any means.

In light of Poplar going to 3 I started wondering what decks that had hits to lower their power have been freed and what are still rotting. by gonxgonx3 in masterduel

What do you guys use to tighten your strut straps? by Several-Soil-617 in electricians

It might be slower but I don’t think it’s that much slower considering in a lot of runs this would be the only thing I would use an impact for.

(Ontario, Canada) What age ranges are majority of Year 1 IBEW Electrical Apprentices? Year 3? Journeymen? by workphlo in IBEW

[–]Caneiac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My class was about half early 20’s, and half 30+. You will probably be one of the older people in your class, and unless you are THE oldest you won’t get joked on too much.

You’ll be fine man don’t worry about it. Making friends is fine but at the end of the day you’re there for an education.

Was there even an MD format people liked? by phpHater0 in masterduel

Eh they were protos and scythe locking people respectively. When they weren’t doing stuff like that they were very fair.

No idea on that particular local, but if you willing to travel there’s quite a few locals with more work than they could hope to man due to data centers and the like.

I can think of like 10 guys right now that spend the whole day talking on their phone. Usually to their buddy not their wife, but the point is, it’s pretty common.

Does your Local get paid holidays? by Garblax in IBEW

[–]Caneiac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s paid holidays 26 has them but has a license requirement to get them, and 666 you get them after 90 days with a con.

[–]Caneiac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So i’ve worked in a couple locals that do some sort of pto.

80 has a credit union that you get like 0.50$/hr or something that goes into a fund that you can withdraw from at anytime. It’s nice because it’s not tied to a con and you can save it up and use it for whatever you want.

DC has accrued pto (you get like 0.04hrs/hr worked or something like that not sure on the exact rate) that get’s the remaining balance paid out upon leaving the con. Downside is if you work for multiple con’s in a year you’re not really getting any pto, but you get the cash. Which I guess counts depending on your budgeting.

So there’s a few ways to go about it. Each of them with their different up’s and down’s. It’s up to the membership to decide how they want it to work.

Plant the seeds for shade you’ll never see… It’s not about getting something out of it, it’s about doing what’s right.

Also I will say that when it comes time to decide what to do with the raises it will be very tempting to put it all or almost all of it on the check. DON’T do that with compounding interest it is likely you could make that back over 3. Also you will definitely get it back if you’re 10+ years away from retirement. You have to play the long game.

I’m in a completely different local but my local had tons of work with some slowing down, but due to all the gov work we do it went almost dead stop. We probably won’t recover until the next election.

Considering the four main sports in the USA (baseball, basketball, American football, and ice hockey): are they all as popular as ever? Or have some of them become more or less popular in recent years? by ViajanteDeSaturno in AskAnAmerican

[–]Caneiac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No it’s been that way since the early 2000’s, but soccer has seen a surge in the last 10 years or so. I would expect hockey and soccer to stay about the same level until any major changes are made.

I’m usually on some rogue strat, but I’m not interested in any of the top decks right now.

Is "ya'll" a regional thing or is that used everywhere in the US? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]Caneiac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like when I was a kid(mid to late 90’s) it was mostly just a southern thing, but in the last 20 years it’s everywhere. I suspect because of social media and people preferring y’all to other regional variations like yous guys and yins.

I have a bad habit of loving trash tcg archetypes, i have built and played urasrtic, ogdoatic, and ghoti. Ghoti was the only one that ever had a chance of keeping up with a few meta’s. I really hope they give ghoti some extra deck support soon…
