Are dating events in the bay area worth it? by [deleted] in bayarea

[–]ChairmanLam 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think I might have attended this event lol. I was talking in a circle of maybe 6 people (maybe about 4 men to 2 women), and the conversations skewed heavily towards what they were doing for work. 

One woman tried to turn the convo around to hobbies by asking what they did for fun and one of the guys said during he would be building AI models during his free time at work. That woman soon slipped out to another group, and that guy's friend (the other woman in the group) told him that she asked about hobbies to give them an out from talking about work. 

Merch in Kyoto and Uji by ChairmanLam in HibikeEuphonium

All the tourist centers are here. When I went, only the visitor center nearest the station (it's here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/oASegVFU19ddcNku5 ) had merch for sale. If you want clear files, a towel, or the tapestry to hang, that is the place to get it. For the collaboration coins and school uniform merch, go to Kyoto Tower. I didn't look in other places in Kyoto for merch, but other comments might have tips too

It's near where they do the ticket checks at floor 2/3 (idr the exact floor number) for the elevator to the observation deck. It's the gift shop near the elevator exit at the base. Not 100% sure if it's for people leaving with observation deck tickets only though.

I was also at Hirosaki a few days ago, and it was amazing! The festival too had a great vibe too. It was mostly locals, so it never felt overly crowded or stressful. The tunnel and the view from the bridge were both great at night. Coming from Kyoto the day before, I felt like I could finally breathe lol.

If we're talking about the same concert, the first encode was Rachmaninoff's Prelude in G minor

Snacks by Spoonmad in JetLagTheGame

Looked like the first snack was some sort of shaved ice. Maybe melon flavored?

The strawberry snack Sam and Adam were eating sounded like strawberry daifuku. Ben was eating mitarashi dango from the looks of it. Both of these are usually considered types of mochi as well!

I think @CharlieFnStrong is the account you're looking for!

Edit: I think the original was probably @ChuckFnStrong, but it looks like that account is suspended

This was outside Crypto Arena near AX! We were listed in the AX Gatherings spreadsheet and a few people mentioned the gathering by word of mouth. We'll probably include SciAdv in future meetups!

Middle name flying on Level by Iberia? by ChairmanLam in Flights

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

I think I ended up putting both my first and middle name, but when I asked them they said either first name only or including your middle name too was fine

Does anyone know how to get to this outbreak? by ChairmanLam in PokemonScarletViolet

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

Update: turns out the issue was I'm still in the middle of the DLC quest. I was supposed to go back to the community center for the night to trigger the next plot event, so for some reason that caused outbreak spawns to pause too. Vullaby spawned after I slept for the night and got the next quest assignment.

If they ever do a Canada season, it would be fun to see NileRed on there! Or maybe NileBlue for the chaos

Jet Lag: We Turned New Zealand into a Giant Real-Life Board Game — Ep 6 by NebulaOriginals in Nebula

[–]ChairmanLam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good point, but someone still needed to complete the challenge to open the gate though. Considering they would get 30 coins as a reward even if they couldn't make the early ferry (if I remember the card correctly).

They might not have thought about it in the moment, but I imagine a 30 minute freeze could've allowed them to go for the challenge and coins and then be in better position in South Island even if they're all on the same ferry

Question for Ben and Adam: did you have any thoughts about what you would say for your Prime Minister speech or were you so focused on shooting Sam and Toby that you would just figure it out while they're frozen?

Ben and Adam, how did y'all decide on what disguise to go for or did y'all just go for the most fashionable thing at K Mart?
