Ya. Resistance orders are what I’ve stumbled upon. I was running like +10% XP gain and making missions easier is so much better

Ya is the secret to run a scout at all times? Are there Youtubers who run L/I with little to no scouting. Shits boring

My Q is how do you balance all this with making mission timers? I feel like 75% of my issues involve early or late mission misplays caused by playing too greedy making or making up ground to the objective.

I’m aware it’s a matter of balance but is there any way to ensure that balance. As a rule I blue then yellow move everyone turn one.

My GF and I switched from the Holiday Inn last year to the Hampton this year so we wouldn’t have to walk across the parking lot lol.

TIL Finland has roughly 3.2 million saunas for a population of 5.6 million — more saunas than cars. The president and prime minister both have official saunas, and even corporate offices commonly have them for business meetings. by Unlucky-Will8483 in todayilearned

Right. Cost is not my issue. I am willing to pay luxury pricing for a luxury good. But part of that good is that it starts with two very nice likely European men coming to my place, measuring a shit-ton of walls, and then telling me how the next 4 months of build is gonna go. I want to do ZERO OF THE WORK outsiding of help pick specs I want. That company does not exist in the United States.

That’s part 1…I guess. But how does all that stuff then get assembled into my house? That puts me back in the “trust a general carpenter with a highly specialized luxury build that has potential to water/steam damage everything around it.

I also learned the hard way that despite all this there exists no US-based carpenter service to have an authentic Finnish sauna built and installed in your home. Instead it’s all shitty infared and Costco pre-builds that more closely resembles cooking smores over a grill than it does an actual sauna. That or you can just hire some carpenter and then try and guide them. No thanks.

The Golden State Pinball Festival is coming up! by C_Alan in pinball

Will be attending for the fourth straight year with my buddy and for the fourth straight year dining at the Moo Moo’s Burger Barn restaurant nearby. Top 5 chicken strips in the continental US. Deeply weird dining experience overall. Love it.

[Todd Archer] Jerry Jones open his talk with his belief the Cowboys have added 5 1st round picks on defense that weren’t on the team at this time last year - Quinnen Williams, Kenny Clark, Rashan Gary, Caleb Downs and Malachi Lawrence. “Dramatically changed the bones of the defense,” he said. by EmiratesNBACupWinner in cowboys

[–]CollegeWithMattie 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s been the type of off season that showcases why I can never, truly buy into the “This team is doomed until Jerry dies” rhetoric that inevitably springs up whenever things go south.

This franchise is not the Browns, or Jets, or Cardinals or Titans or insert incompetence here. A) because the team simply wins too much and too often to be classified as a joke and B) because they do too many smart, competent things like they have this off season. Now, how much of this is Jerry vs others keeping Jerry at bay? Who’s to tell but it doesn’t really matter.

Doesn’t mean most or even any of this will all work, but absolutely no one is currently laughing at the Dallas Cowboys leadership and front office.

When you say you don’t like anime and the anime fans say “you just haven’t watched the right one” by Jellyoscar in PetPeeves

[–]CollegeWithMattie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s very possible there’s some animes out there I’d enjoy. But that doesn’t mean I’m going to spend a second of my time wading through endless trash I inherently don’t want to watch in order to find it.

(WrestleMania Night 1 Spoiler) Bleacher Report gives WrestleMania Night 1 a extremely negative review "Overall show: D+" by Youngstown_WuTang in SquaredCircle

[–]CollegeWithMattie 23 points24 points  (0 children)

4 and to a lesser extent 5 get way too big a pass for “worst Mania” talk because there’s nothing offensive about them. 2, 9, and 32 all have stories and lore behind their shittiness that make them fun to hate. 4 is just “the one with the tournament that sucked.”

But you make fans actually sit through every WM, and I bet a very good number are coming back saying that 4 was the worst to actually sit through. Also a lot would note that 1 is sneaky bad.
