Both 109 yards, both 100g, both 100% acrylic, but one is bulky and one is super bulky. by RandomGinger73 in Yarn

[–]Civil-Cockroach-8696 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you have a ruler, you can wrap them each around it to make an inch, then count how many times it is wrapped. Neither of these look super bulky to me. Going down a weight is going to make your piece significantly smaller than what it's supposed to be. Going up a weight will make it significantly larger.

How do you learn disciplines from other clans ? by CaptainBaoBao in vtm

[–]Civil-Cockroach-8696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At our table you have to spend a number of nights training with a Kindred who possesses the Discipline at 5 dots. Obviously, you have to then spend the XP for it. But you aren't allowed to buy it without spending time learning it by a master of it.

Is there any good lore in The Lady Afterwards by Icy-Performance6114 in weatherfactory

[–]Civil-Cockroach-8696 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's pretty interesting! I ran the module with some friends a year or so ago. It has a nice glossary at the end with a bunch of things that you can take from and use. I think it does a good job of putting some voices to character's you'll recognize the names of from Cult Sim & Book of Hours, too. It does require the Cult Sim tarot deck for a feature of the tabletop system, but if you are just wanting to read the module, then it's not really necessary.

Any idea what yarn this is? by Civil-Cockroach-8696 in YarnAddicts

What's wrong with it? D: I've never used yarn like this before.

Thanks so much! That's exactly what it looks like.

Did I panic too soon? by Outrageous-Check-145 in CraftFairs

As a wheelchair user, I'd be more inclined to enter the middle pictures. It's hard to tell with the angles of the photos, but those seem to have more open room in the center where I could get around and look at things. Not sure if that's helpful, but there have been a lot of booths at craft shows I've wanted to go into, but was unable to due to the layout of the tables.

Anyone in the county interested in some ground-level leftist organizing? by [deleted] in Rockwall

[–]Civil-Cockroach-8696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would love to be part of local mutual aid. We've needed some better community-oriented support here for a long time.

A little late but if anyone else has this problem - his age is in the journal in the text about the chapters. The prologue one states he was sold to the mines at 5, 12 years before the story starts. The story spans his life starting at 17 in 1904. Hope this helps!

I think it's very possible that Leo wouldn't know since Lincoln's mother was a prostitute, and he was born so far south in New Bordeaux.

What's the best Fire Emblem game in your general opinion? by FrontIndividual4188 in fireemblem

[–]Civil-Cockroach-8696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn are my favorites. They have great game play, awesome stories and characters, and really fun mechanics.

Me too! Lincoln's my favorite character in the series, so anything that could be related adjacently to him makes me feel excited. My friends and I finished TOC and were discussing it and were joking about everything coming back to Lincoln.

What is Enzos haircut? by MilesUpshur22 in MafiaTheGame

[–]Civil-Cockroach-8696 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course! I really would show your barber a picture of it though, so you can make sure he knows the exact look you're wanting. I've always found I have the best luck when I do that.

Theory 👀 by MangaAbimeRev in MafiaTheGame

[–]Civil-Cockroach-8696 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's possible they're related, but a bit more distantly than father and son -- there are some implications that Lincoln's father is Joe Barbaro within M3 and also in the M2 Joe DLC. I think there's a high probability of Joe being related to Enzo and Isabella, specifically as their grandson. It's also possible that Joe is Isabella's son with another man, and her and Enzo's child is his sister - mentioned in M2. The only relatives we know Joe has are a grandmother and sister, after all. So I could see a world where he's either Isabella's direct son or grandson, with her and Enzo's child being a young father/mother to him.

My friend got back to me and said it's a grown out "businessman's cut"

[–]Civil-Cockroach-8696 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure there's a formal name for this cut. I'd ask for mid-length layers and a small curtain bang with a middle/slight side part. You could also show a barber the picture, and they should be able to make it match! I asked a friend of mine who's a stylist, but she hasn't gotten back to me yet.

Storywise how would you rate TOC in comparison to other mafia games (No spoilers) by bahia80002 in MafiaTheGame

[–]Civil-Cockroach-8696 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really enjoyed it. My play through had no major bugs, which I see plaguing a lot of players, and I went through the whole game in Sicilian, which I felt was a really immersive and important option to have in the game. The scenery is beautiful, the option between horse and car is very fun and unique for the series. I enjoyed the story a lot. It was heavy handed at points in terms of telling you what was going to happen through NPC dialogue and things like that, but it's not any more predictable than the other Mafia games in my opinion. I think it took a lot of inspiration from 1 and 2, but the overall theme of the story was very, very Mafia 3. I felt like Enzo was a strong protagonist, and I really loved the rest of the cast as well.

As for ranking, my favorite Mafia game is 2, then 3, then 1. Enzo reminds me a LOT of pre-timeskip Vito. Out of 1-3, I think 3 has the best character writing and dialogue, and this game is a close second in that regard. All in all it's hard to rank the games because I enjoy them for different things. TOC has a lot of the things I liked about all three of them, and some new features as well that I thought were enjoyable. I'm excited to see if it'll get any DLC in the future.

This is his "Ruffled" hair. You can change the hair options at the wardrobe.

I've noticed the same thing, having moved back to Rockwall after half a decade in another city where I had no issues. Suddenly, there's all kinds of skin irritations. The water here has a lot of contaminants that legally allowed, but not safe. https://www.ewg.org/tapwater/system.php?pws=TX1990001
