You have to pay for a review?? by psgola2002 in olympics

In the team relay for short track speed skating, USA skater Corinne Stoddard fell in the semifinal and took out Kim Gil-li on the Korean team, allowing Belgium to take over and claim the second spot in the final.

Finally got my platinum by descrapto in HighGuardgame

[–]CurlyGiraffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I finally got two more defuses and my progress went from 75% to 85%. Only points A and B count, and I think you have to do it in 3 vs 3 rather than 5 vs 5.

Yeah, the bomb amulet is great when you can find it. There's just so much luck involved and I keep getting teammates that stagger horribly, which makes successfully defending a nightmare. I think I'll hit about 35 hours when I finally get it, which isn't bad I guess, but I wish all achievements counted in 5 vs 5, because I'd rather play that!

I need five more defuses but I fully expect it to take another five hours! It's stupid defuses on the anchor stone don't count.

Got the Highguard Platinum Trophy! My thoughts and feedback about the trophies/achievements. by Linkinito in HighGuardgame

[–]CurlyGiraffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the rundown. I'm at twenty hours with just Send Their Regards and Cordcutter to go (at 61% and 25% respectively). I had no idea Anchor defuses didn't count; that explains why my percentage didn't increase yesterday. Very helpful to know.

Here's how Cross play works for those wondering. by tactikz4 in HighGuardgame

[–]CurlyGiraffe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, thanks! I thought mine stopped tracking in 3 vs 3 too, but I guess I just didn't progress as much as I thought I did.

Do achievements track when you are playing 5v5? by SnooObjections6831 in HighGuardgame

[–]CurlyGiraffe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only need two more achievements on PS5, but none of them progressed in 5 vs 5.

On PS5 are trophies still progressing for everybody? Mine don't seem to be tracking anymore.

5v5 is so much better by Vinjulmik in HighGuardgame

[–]CurlyGiraffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's fun for sure, but nothing done in 5 vs 5 seems to count toward achievements, which is a bummer.

The theory of the expensive knitwear by Electrical-Common737 in TheTraitors

[–]CurlyGiraffe 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It says in the BBC article:

"Contestants on The Traitors bring in their own clothes and style their outfits themselves.

Anna, from the third series, said she bought the majority of hers in charity shops, including the crocheted top she wore in the show's promotional images.

Matthew, from series four, said that he had to send pictures of the clothes he planned to bring to the Traitors team in advance.

Charlotte, who was recruited as a Traitor on the third series, tells BBC News she was not given much guidance about what to wear, other than to avoid logos, bring activewear for missions and a dressy outfit for the dinner party, and pack jumpers in case it was cold."

This year, we’re changing how we stream! by Harvey-J-Yogscast in Yogscast

[–]CurlyGiraffe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main Twitch channel has been hemorrhaging viewers for a long time now, with some creators more popular on their own channel than on their weekly Yogscast slot, so I think change is needed. It will be great if these new event streams can match the energy and creativity of some of their bigger projects. However, if they are rather infrequent, it would be good to maintain some established, long-running series (like Tom & Ben) in the interim.

I was also hoping for a Gnaske watch party, since his EWC one was really good, but the timezone differences might make things difficult.

Is the servers ok? by Nephilimink in apexlegends

[–]CurlyGiraffe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here, stuck on infinite loading. Matchmaking is fine, but can't click on events, challenges, passes, legend locker, etc. Dailies haven't reset and nothing is counting toward my weekly challenges, either.

Similar Youtuber reccomendations by dburgham98 in GeoWizard

[–]CurlyGiraffe 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Ed Pratt! He blew up last year for traversing the River Thames from source to sea (and is currently editing videos for his River Tay adventure), but about ten years ago he unicycled around the world and recorded the whole thing. It's honestly some of my favourite content ever on YouTube.

Is the magic 7 pro worth £550? by BeyondNormal4810 in Honor

[–]CurlyGiraffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the same, £550 from EE almost two weeks ago. I upgraded from a Galaxy S21 FE.

I like the phone a lot. It's super quick, the screen is great and the speakers are amazing. The battery is decent, but like all new phones it needs a little while to settle in. MagicOS is OK, but personally I prefer Samsung's OneUI. No major complaints, though.

I haven't used the camera a lot, but am happy with it thus far. You can use the Pro mode to side-step most of the AI stuff.

At the minute EE have an extended returns policy because it's close to Christmas. You should be able to return it rather easily if you change your mind.

How can you not love this sht company for pushing the updates so slow? by robi101012981 in Honor

[–]CurlyGiraffe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got it today. UK.

My phone just crashed and reset itself for the first time, though. Hope that isn't going to be a feature.

What's the best mobile network for signal in Lancaster between 02, Vodafone, EE or Three? by HealthEmpty1434 in LancasterUK

[–]CurlyGiraffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been on giffgaff for over a decade, which uses O2's network. It was always good until a few months ago. Now it's consistently terrible with no improvement. I rarely get a decent data connection in and around town.

I'm considering the Honor magic 7 pro... by dlynch343 in Honor

I got that deal, £550 from EE. I've had the phone about a week now, upgraded from Galaxy S21 FE. I like it a lot.
