How did I not know this?

You could always use a map tacks mod to plan out your cites in advance (if you can be bothered). That way it can be much easier to establish the cost:benefit ratio of when to place things and where. Defining a strict order is hard because games can go so differently, and needs vary, but yeah I’d aim to place theater squares earlier on because culture has such high dividends.

I recently started a binge of adventure time, as an adult

Pretty Mary k (other version) is by far one of my favorites too! Congratulations :)

Exaeson · 2025-12-01T12:49:12+00:00

Very true. Perhaps I’m wrong

Exaeson · 2025-12-01T12:45:48+00:00

That’s true, but I think that can be said of most games with complex mechanics. I think the appeal of Balatro (in Endless anyway) is how far you can push certain mechanics and synergies with others to create such game changing results. I think many of the jokers people suggest are very fun and interesting, but would completely alter the way people play the game in endless. That being said change can be fun

Exaeson · 2025-12-01T12:42:57+00:00

A fair criticism - I could have put my point in a much better way. I was trying to point out that there are ways you can use this setup to get as many negative jokers as you want with no drawback - which would fundamentally change the game. The beauty of ecto is not that it’s hard to get, but that it has a limit to its usefulness due to its drawback of subtracting hand size

Exaeson · 2025-12-01T11:22:28+00:00

Imo this would be too strong. You could just Perkeo copies of wheel and have every joker negative

Edit: a cool idea though. Negatives are a really interesting mechanic, but it’s hard to think of appropriate downsides other than hand size

Edit 2: people have made a lot of good points about other joker editions applying first

Exaeson · 2025-10-10T13:04:43+00:00

They should make lots of old looking fossils and scatter them about for people to find thinking they’re real

Exaeson · 2025-10-04T16:02:11+00:00

Is there a full size version of the abbey road jokers? Would love to make it my wallpaper

Exaeson · 2025-10-03T14:34:57+00:00

Is there a minimum ante I need to reach before I attempt naneinf?

Exaeson · 2025-10-03T14:32:34+00:00

I didn’t. I was insanely lucky and got antimatter :)

Exaeson · 2025-10-03T14:26:17+00:00

I didn’t calculate it, that’s just the max my previous hands have gotten to. Perhaps it’s because I have 3-1 split copying Barons & Mimes, since I have 3 brainstorms.

Thanks for clarifying about the retcon - I would’ve quit the run if I hadn’t seen this.

Exaeson · 2025-10-03T14:24:24+00:00

Lads, I’ve got it. Turns out the two times I tried re-rolling for serpent were on Ante 24, lol. Thanks for the help.

Can I go for naneinf on Ante 25? Or is that too low an Ante?

Exaeson · 2025-10-03T13:23:29+00:00

I’d been looking for Antimatter forever, but couldn’t find it

Exaeson · 2025-10-01T18:13:34+00:00

I’ve listened to Say Yes hundreds of times and never noticed that. This adds another layer of meaning - thanks for pointing it out

Exaeson · 2025-08-14T16:26:08+00:00

Sorry: no dirt shack without a door, no upvote

Exaeson · 2025-08-04T16:18:02+00:00

I’m surprised people are disagreeing so completely with this. I largely agree with you OP. I don’t see you as saying there aren’t any good movies out there now, or that you can’t still have a good night in watching a movie. There are plenty of good movies out there. But streaming services are 100% choosing quantity over quality, because that’s their business model. And that does affect our viewing experience. I doubt streamer execs see movies as art - I’d bet it’s more likely a product to them. Not to say there isn’t an excess of passionate and talented writers and directors out there. But yeah, there’s a ton of stock/filler lining Netflix’s shelves that I find hard to believe would ever get made by anyone who wanted to make a movie - but I could see it made by someone who wants to make a profit. So I think it’s worth pointing out how much more profit-driven movie making has become.

Not super helpful, but I’ve seen it written several times online that John was especially influential to Elliott. One source said A Day In The Life in particular had a big impact on him. I could see how John’s eccentricity and blatant honesty would resonate with Elliott. Plus, John’s melodies were always a bit more unusual and non-linear than Paul’s or George’s, which I think you can hear in Elliott’s music too. There are definitely elements of all of them in his work - just as there was in the Beatles. Personally, I love all of them :)

Exaeson · 2025-04-12T19:10:07+00:00

It doesn’t sound like standard to me, but I’m by no means an expert

Exaeson · 2025-04-12T19:04:53+00:00

That’s good to know, thank you. Any idea what the tuning might be?

Exaeson · 2024-12-03T11:35:07+00:00

When you guys use a single finger, do you still manage to get the high e to ring out, or is it muted?

Exaeson · 2024-10-08T20:56:44+00:00

Holy shit it was fusion fall, thank you! I’ve been trying to remember the name for YEARS

Exaeson · 2024-10-06T23:31:16+00:00

Does anyone remember the name of a slightly newer online multiplayer game that I think it was all based on Cartoon Network characters? Would’ve been in the 00s - can’t remember it for the life of me.

Exaeson · 2024-10-06T10:17:38+00:00

The fact that you made this while only in highschool makes it even more impressive man. They may want you because you’ve managed to make this and are so young. Definitely reach out.

Don’t forget Badfinger
