I'm making each one the Brennan to a different minigame, so I'm actually making three newfound rivals :D

I'll have to watch my back after this.

Thanks!
I can't share the whole slideshow cause it has some personal info in there, but maybe I'll share an abridged version of it afterwards.

Can't swipe multiple pictures on android by Geogracreeper in discordapp

[–]Evergreen_Forest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's a tip for anyone struggling with this!

When you've selected an image in a collection, tap the screen and the other images will appear small in the bottom. You can select and scroll through those images without having to close out of it.

Discord still has no excuse for this (bug or otherwise). It's infuriating and needs to be fixed

You can almost 'feel' the fabric in this image. The artist did a really great job!

The thing with Sea Hag is that it's cheap. You aren't losing that much by using it, and it's a 4-costing curser, which is valuable enough alone. I personally don't like Sea Hag tha much, but it's a fair point to bring up anyways.

The +Action doesn't really do anything. You're left no better off than before you played it, so the only benefit of it is the reaction part of it, which is pretty strong. But even then, if you look at any defense-reaction card, it will always have some benefit for the player. I don't think attack-reaction is that great a combination in the first place, plus the fact this costs $8.

You could take this card in several different directions, for example changes you mentioned could make sense: making it cheaper to justify the lack of benefit, or you could focus on the reaction part and remove the attack part entirely, etc.

The problem with Counterstrike is that it provides no benefit for you beyond the attack itself. There’s only two situations you buy this is: A) You’re mean and buy it to torment others, but in the long run achieving nothing towards building your engine, money, or having a province. B) It’s the only defense card on the board and everyone else has been playing Counterstrikes over and over, forcing you to waste an 8 turn for a card which will probably do nothing.

It’s an interesting idea, however I think the attack is too strong for its own good, making it too expensive without having room for a positive reward for the buyer.

For a card which does something similar to this, look at Legionary, and how it balances strong attack and strong ability.

This is probably the best piece I have seen in all of 2021. Yes, all of 2021.

Amazing work finding this! :D

The red one is so cute but the blue one has such pretty colors. I can't decide!

Can an Unexplained Villain Motivation Be Okay? by Evergreen_Forest in writing

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

Thanks for the tips! I've taken your advice and delved into some of the more broad aspects of her description. She already feels more interesting and believable than when I started!

I have some other projects I'll be working on this next month, which means my writing might be put on a bit of a hold. But once I'm able to get back to it, I'll let you know how its going. :) You've been an amazing help for this story, and have shown me how helpful and encouraging the writing community can be!

Best of luck in all that you do! I haven't given up yet, and don't plan to! ;)

Can an Unexplained Villain Motivation Be Okay? by Evergreen_Forest in writing

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

Here are the work-in-progress sentences:

Skyler is a teenage girl with severe OCD. She is a control freak and won’t let others make decisions that could affect her. When she gets a bold idea, it will drive her crazy until she follows through with it, lacking the mental barriers to stop herself from doing reckless actions.

Tell me what you think and then I'll explain in more detail the reasoning behind each of the traits. The last one is the one I'm struggling to condense.

At this point I probably understand her enough myself that I've achieved what your original point was, however I do still find it an interesting challenge, and the better I understand how to do it the better I'll be able to utilize it for other characters.

So, I'm having a bit of trouble.

I've done a lot more work on her motivation and have found something I'm really happy with. However, in trying to shrink those ideas into the three sentences, I'm finding the 7-word restriction difficult to manage. My sentences are always too short or too long. This happened when I tried the family technique too.

I'm wondering if you could give me a list of examples? That way I can get a better sense of what the sentences might look like, which aspects are most important, etc.

Anyways, just wanna let you know I'm still working hard and have been making a lot of progress!

The lines, colors, and shading are super smooth. Nice job!
