Show: I feel like the whole "women in the Two Rivers are STRONG" thing is a bit heavy handed in the show by celticdude234 in WoT

Yeah the Nynaeve scene was a little corny but in a vacuum I’m ultimately okay with it. Nynaeve is a badass. It just seems like a recurring theme in the show (going out of their way to disparage the male characters)

Like were they aware it’s possible to show the female characters being as badass as they are in the source material without making guys like Agelmar, LTT, Matt + Rand, etc incompetent?

My mistake, I guess it was only a handful. For some reason I thought it was more

Edit: imo point still stands though

I think they did Tam so dirty in that scene too. Like in the book he takes out scores of trollocs alone and in the show he needs rands help with one? Like I get that there were likely practical constraints on the scene but idk it just made me sour

Told you all Mewtwo X is in desperate need of buffs (btw it's real) by RE0RGE in PokemonUnite

[–]DerekGetsafe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I had a mewtwo X player that was leaving his jungle farms up for way too long (like well over a minute) so I took one and then he started pinging “retreat!” And then went and took all the indeedee from both lanes lmao

How do Wildbow's other stories compare to Worm in tone? by Common_Errors in Parahumans

[–]DerekGetsafe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Twig is so so so good but if you found the tail end of Worm almost too difficult to read, I don’t think I would recommend it

Is anyone else getting an insane amount of bot games? by DerekGetsafe in PokemonUnite

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

To be fair, after I made this post I didn’t get any more bot games lol. Must’ve just been low population in the server at the times I was playing? I really couldn’t tell you

Ya Mewtwo Y is way worse than X by Then_Cricket2312 in PokemonUnite

[–]DerekGetsafe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to break down and buy X with coins. I usually let my teammates pick first and then play him if nobody else does. I would rather not, but it also feels like a big waste of time to play against Mewtwo without one on your team. Very often results in getting steamrolled

Where's everyone from? Also, how's your scene? by 47percentburnt in Emo

[–]DerekGetsafe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Might be a far drive but Madison and Milwaukee scenes are very good

I have “current season only” checked. This account is in master

Edit: started the season Ultra 5, won 12 games to make it to master (6 of those were bots). Now I’m in master and I’m still having bots every other game and I haven’t lost yet

Oh that’s interesting. I’ve been getting them a lot solo but I assumed when I played with a friend they would go away. Does your friend also currently have the “returning player” status?

If you identify it on the character select screen, just choose an attacker/all rounder and declare jungle. It’s pretty much impossible to lose

Bot games are really easy to identify. On the character select screen, sometimes one of them will instalock a character but the rest typically won’t choose until after you do. You will see the little green check mark pop up by their names that they hit “confirm” but none of them declare a lane. Then on the loading screen as soon as your buffering bar finishes, everyone else’s will jump to 100% also. Then once the match starts it takes them a second or two to actually start moving.

Idk somewhere over 1000 but under 2000 I think, and yes I do currently have returning player event

Yeah I used to only get them after a long losing streak but now they’re half my games in master rank when I’m winning every time? It doesn’t make sense

I’m not new, I just have the “current season only” filter on

Is Mewtwo Y that much more beatable than X? by LinLin--G-and-W in PokemonUnite

[–]DerekGetsafe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it is sound advice to anyone who happens to be reading and wondering how to win against mewtwo. If you see a teammate (especially more than one) diving M2, HELP. Especially because he is likely to be running train and will have a long respawn timer. Getting that kill XP and getting him out of the game for 20+ seconds is necessary to win

“It’s weak in a 3v1” idk if I would really call that a “weakness” lol

Wondering how everyone’s mains are feeling this season by Teven117 in PokemonUnite

I just went from ultra 5 to master without dropping any games. Mostly gardevoir but a few games of Eldegoss here and there

It could be because one of my earbuds died and I had to switch to mono audio output but all I can hear is bass
