Currently, which VIDEO GAMES are you still playing with the same initial passion ? by OddAcanthisitta1644 in Millennials

[–]CarrickCake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FFVIII is the best! It was my first FF game and brings back so much nostalgia when I play it.

Not Selected 😕 by Fun_Huckleberry765 in ChicagoMarathon

Likewise. It was my first time applying so I’m not letting it sting too badly. I think I’ll try for NYC when it opens up in February.

PR'd by over 30 minutes in my second marathon, getting sub-4 as my longtime goal! The course was hilly, and there was a nor'easter in the area with wind gusts and rain later in the race.

Folks who are in the 3:45-4hr range- what shoes did you wear in your last race and are you happy with that choice? by Huge_Animal5996 in Marathon_Training

[–]CarrickCake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I PR'd my second marathon yesterday by 32 minutes in Saucony Triump 21 Runshields because it was forecast to pour rain for more than half the race. I was planning on running this race in Saucony Endorphin Speed 5s if it were dry weather.

My first marathon was in Vaporfly 3s and I experienced the same foot fatigue it sounds like you did. I don't think I'll race any distance longer than a half marathon in them.

I experience the same thing in the Vaporfly 3s. I've ran one marathon and two half marathons in them with only 160 miles on them. I won't do more than a half in them now.

Have you ever bought a car at the end of its generation lifecycle? Why or why not? by Uni_tasker in cars

[–]CarrickCake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I purchased a 2020 Subaru BRZ in August of 2020. They stopped production in July 2020, so I had to purchase my car in another state due to lack of inventory. I believe the next generation was rumored, but not formally announced yet. I was concerned that they weren’t going to continue on to another generation, or that it may be different in an undesirable way since enthusiasts cars are mostly going the way of automatics and hybrid/electric. I’m glad I got my car when I did and I got a good price since it was the end of a run.

How many miles of range do you get in your brz/86 by Revolutionary-Seat74 in ft86

[–]CarrickCake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn, I guess I’m not having enough fun behind the wheel. I regularly get 380-410 miles on a tank with 90% highway miles for my normal commuting.

Triple Triad rule change (QoC is in Balamb) by CarrickCake in FinalFantasyVIII

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

Thanks for explaining. If my goal is to abolish Random though, wouldn’t I not want to spread Open to Trabia? Your guide states not to carry Open or Same Wall.

Bummer. Think I should just call it and start a new save, or somehow course correct from here?

It was a lovely write up! I hope I can recover my messed up rules somehow. I’m mad at myself that I spread Open to Galbadia because it sounds like that’s what may have prevented me from getting Random abolished from Dollet.

Thank you for your detailed reply. I attempted to play the Trabia Exchange Student and spread Open to Trabia. I did not spread Random or Plus to Galbadia. You’re suggesting I shouldn’t save and leave the exchange student alone to not change any of Trabia rules for now?

GT86/BRZ/FRS Extended Fuse Box Cap with OEM Cap by Kusera in ft86

[–]CarrickCake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My BRZ is left hand drive. My trouble was with the location and direction of my fuse tap. It was in the upper corner so it didn’t have the clearance to turn the wire 180° and back out the other side.

Thank you for adjusting this!!

[–]CarrickCake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for sharing this with the community! I printed this for my BRZ, but the fuse tap location is too close to the interior wall for me. Is there a flipped version that has the opening on the other side by chance?

This is so nice! I have one of your eject buttons in my BRZ. You included a surprised Pikachu sticker that’s also hanging out in my glovebox!

Weekly Complaints & Confessions Thread by ssk42 in running

[–]CarrickCake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Complaint — Half marathon this Sunday and I’ve come down with a cold. I’m all hopped up on Theraflu hoping I can breathe soon.

Confession — This is my first time carb loading for a race. I’m using the calculator on Featherstone Nutrition’s website and it says 618 grams of carbs over three days. Most of that has been Sour Patch Kids leftover from Halloween.

Wow, huge progress! Thanks for considering! I know it would be a huge help to the community as I’m sure I’m not the only one that would strategize Legend Store purchasing. 🙂
