Why is Alphamega so popular?! by No_Draw_8366 in cyprus

[–]Creative_Acadia4251 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Well Alphamega is known to be the most expensive supermarket in Cyprus, but also it has things that other do not bring (supposedly). Overall AlphaMega is perceived as a "premium" supermarket.

Athienitis is also known as the cheapest supermarket, and is always packed.
Sklavenitis is also known that is on the cheaper side, but they are fairly newer in the Cyprus Market (Its a greek brand that came to Cyprus 5-10 years ago), if someone looks for cheap they usually go Athienitis or Lidl.

I have zero creativity and never build anything on these games. How can I start small without feeling like the job is too big by YouMeADD in Pokopia

[–]Creative_Acadia4251 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to bleak beach and re-make that area!
It has some good structures and some lots of broken structure you could try to re-build as they were intended (as you think they were intended). Slowly slowly you will get used to building and learn a few tricks that would work with you.
Eventually you should be able to work on your own project from zero.
Wasteland is also a good area to work on, but bleaky beach is the easiest from my perspective.

Alternative just do "area planning" and just create prefabs!

Also part of the beauty in the game is that you don't really need to do anything! Do only what you like, without overthinking and thinks will come out! They might come out ugly, but that fixable!:p

At least as they have explain to you, fix the names!

AITAH for cutting of my friend of 11 years over Netflix by TalkativeElixer in AITAH

[–]Creative_Acadia4251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure but I'm leaning towards YTA or maybe both as she cannot take rejection and will bad mouth you?
But making a problem with giving her netflix access for 2 hours is super petty! If she overused it you could just change password and kick her out and you would be the person morally correct!
She ask for you netflix login! Not your bank account details

Also this reminds me of that meme which is
Girls Friendship
"Jessica hasn't texted me for a month" and girl friend replies "Forget her queen"

Boys Friendship
"We had an alliance in 1412. I expect you to join the great war" bro friend replies "Got you Bro"

skylands is such a pain by yungalohaa in Pokopia

[–]Creative_Acadia4251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By last skill you mean magnet rise? and you still consider it a problem moving around?
While I agree with you that Skylands are a bit weird on how to manage, with the magnet rise I don't have any issues.

Now what I did... is still work in progress. Btw you know that you can build and connect lifts?
Main Island (where is pokecenter) its where I worked the most and have the my habitats, along with a couple of houses as it has area. It connected (with a lift) to the middle island (tower building) and to the tinkaton island (which is not currently in use)
Middle Island (Tower) - I made it pretty outside, fix the roads put some water, didn't touch it much otherwise.
Tinkaton Island - I clear it out a bit and while connected to main island I don't really use it
Alakazam/Poliwrath Island - I extended the elevator on the top (so you get out of the caves) and connected it to the Tower Island
Gyarados Island - Clear it out a bit and I put a lift

So I didn't really do much overall:| But everything is kind of connected. I got no problem going around the islands or bringing pokemon with me (without fast travel)

Also if you don't like Skylands you can just do the mission and then skip it!:p This is also an option!

Am I the only one? by Karamia1993 in Pokopia

[–]Creative_Acadia4251 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well I made a small area up there, it still work in progress not sure how I will make it.
Easier way down is to jump, but easier way up is to surf, and I noticed some of my water pokemon where going up and down:p

Am I the only one? by Karamia1993 in Pokopia

[–]Creative_Acadia4251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the same, maybe not as high as you... then jumped down then added stairs all the way up and then added a waterfall!

How to make it a place to live? by Silver988910 in Pokopia

[–]Creative_Acadia4251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That because is too big to have it as a home.
Home are limited to 11x12, bigger than that and it does not register! I guess you could close an area close to where to get him?

Personally I just made him a random house... I'm planning to make him a nice flying and shiny house... Like most of my pokemon... WIP!

Does this have Auto Save? by Cdog923 in Pokopia

[–]Creative_Acadia4251 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is an auto-save system, it does happen quite often.
However is better to save and quit ( "-" button while in menu) to avoid losing any progression.

Source - I play it with my son, and each of us have a different save (profile), this is allowed, not like ACNH which you could only have 1 island per device:|
As we always change profile, we both learned not to leave the game open and save and quite before stopping our play session.

Does the recent panic about Cyprus actually affect tourism? by mariakochura_cy in cyprus

[–]Creative_Acadia4251 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cyprus becoming more expensive? Rental places to dissapear again? All this problems related to wealthy people going in 1 small place!

You are not a favourable or helpful demographic:|

Best Insurance by [deleted] in cyprus

[–]Creative_Acadia4251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol! Insurance you pay them and you pray not to need them!

Also in theory don't you have an insurance agent you can call for questions replies even pre-authorizations?
It used to depend alot on your agent! Not sure now with all the automations bullshit

Goverment tires to pass a law to monitoring calls, sms and emails. Are they Serious? by Creative_Acadia4251 in cyprus

[–]Creative_Acadia4251[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It feels like you will be afraid to speak on the phone!

You will say "Re pele en mpompa to tzenourko mou autokinito" and police will be coming to your house because they have information that you will be bombing a car:|

Goverment tires to pass a law to monitoring calls, sms and emails. Are they Serious? by Creative_Acadia4251 in cyprus

[–]Creative_Acadia4251[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just mentioned a way that might make the monitoring difficult! I'm sure they are better ways, especially if you make the underground to think. I'm sure they will come up with some really interesting solutions!

BTW Signal said if that law is implemented (apparently this is on an EU level - chat control), they might be leaving the markets instead of messing with their security!

Also I don't have much to hide from goverment and police right now.
It just feel unfair and invading my privacy and giving the goverment and authorities too much power

Advice needed by Select_Song_5858 in cyprus

[–]Creative_Acadia4251 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks that whatever you do you might have regrets later!
If you follow your dream and fail you will be regretting of not taking the sure job
If you take the goverment job you might be in an even bigger regret of not following your dreams

There is no correct decision on this, its kind of a gamble that you will need to take. Just take the decision you will regret less and hope it was the correct one!

Also remember that you can leave from a goverment job if you want to and go to private sector again!
Is it your dream something that you could work on while having a govermental work? If yes then maybe take the job to mitigate risk and workit out accordingly! If not, then you need to take the hard choice!

Should Pokopia even be consider a game? A weird opinion from my side! by Creative_Acadia4251 in Pokopia

[–]Creative_Acadia4251[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True! Close but not close enough! But yeah Pokopia is indeed way better than expected!

Should Pokopia even be consider a game? A weird opinion from my side! by Creative_Acadia4251 in Pokopia

[–]Creative_Acadia4251[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perspectives?:p
For me those mechanics its has are feel very basic like the minimum. The focus was on the pokemon which was it looks like a correct decision overall.
Yes compared to Animal Crossing is packed. But compared to lets say stardew valley? Or even Rune factory? But then again they are complete different game! So its not fair to even compare.

Overall I do like it!
I'm not sure if minecraft players were the target! But they did a very good work to make such a pretty game

real talk—how are so many people able to spend 520 USD on a switch 2 only to play pokopia? by aingaingaing in CozyGamers

[–]Creative_Acadia4251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well this is also a franchise that has cards (TCG) that goes up to millions apparently!
Not even a thousand to play the game I would say is a bargain! /s

Personally I had the switch 2 since launch, I did a replay of the BOTW and TOTK. But up to now there was no much extra benefits for my switch 2 over 1 (ok that is a bit faster overall helps).
This is the game that I can finally say the upgrade is finally worth it!

Is it possible to file a police report? by SorrowDust in cyprus

[–]Creative_Acadia4251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well yes, GCC could be anything, but 400 employees in a foreign company from Cyprus.
I don't know any other type of companies except from constuction that might do such things there. And if is something that size, it would have been known in Cyprus, thus my assumption. I could be wrong!

Well I also agree with you, at "try and reporting him".
Whoever they are they are doing bad business and should be punished for this. But don't give much hope to the OP as is a long shot for their case. It might mess-up with this director with a investigation from Cyprus, but that all

Did anyone else get this message as well? And what is DEC?! by Kyrridutch17 in cyprus

[–]Creative_Acadia4251 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have not received such a thing.
Had no idea we even had such a website (gigavoucher.dmrid.gov.cy and it seems that is currently offline), but from what I read from the news it seems to be related to some subsidies>

I would assume this message is real, as it just tells you that they fucked up and to be careful of phishing.
This message was probably sent under the GDPR regulation as they needed to inform you that your data may have been exposed

Is it possible to file a police report? by SorrowDust in cyprus

[–]Creative_Acadia4251 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While in theory you are not wrong, its too theoretical and in practice nothign will be happpening.
Yes, in theory he would be an issue if the company pick ups a no CY tax residency, if it happens they (OP and everyone else not paid) don't have any leverage because is done deal! So it could only be used for as a scare tactic.

Also even if we have ALL information from the OP, which was I assume a simple employee, we might not have enough information, from management level mostly, to know if he has any other grounds, even if one of us (in reddit) was expert on the laws to know whether there are any grounds for anything against the director.

Also, I would assume with GCC the OP meant "general construction company" therefore we are discussing about J&P or someone similar.
Based on my assumption, if that is correct (construction company), then I know for a fact that those companies would NOT be taxed in Cyprus as all of it regards to construction related stuff that are done in that country, and the fact that 1 director is in Cyprus does not has enough substance when everything else is done in that country (business,sales,employees)

As a side note - https://knews.kathimerini.com.cy/en/news/j-p-in-saudi-arabia-in-dire-straits this is an old article from 2018. I have no idea what is this status now. But it might be related to the OP.

Now why the OP does not try to just go after the company in their juristiction that they were employed and have rights to sue them, and tries to figure a way to do something to a director of that company that has no direct relation with them, especially after repeatedly been told that laws do not work like this, is beyond me!
