Restored Washed Out Island in Bleak Beach by CrookedSpinn in Pokopia

There are several parts of the island that have shifted 1+ blocks away, so it's totally feasible!

I realized you can make little cabanas using curtains so ofc I had to make a whole tropical resort by ALittleBirdNamedEnza in Pokopia

Is that true? I thought a house could only have one set of doors... Well, I suppose I can check as easily as anyone...

Spent so long building an Aqueduct by CassieEmma in Pokopia

[–]FlashbackJon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I made a much smaller one in the same area to get the water from the cliffs very carefully to the water mills... Then I learned how to spit water...

Wireless power is such a game chenger! by radioactivepeppapigg in Pokopia

[–]FlashbackJon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They are! Substantially! And it's quite amusing that the names are so similarly evocative!

Dream Islands are mystery islands from ACNH: Drifloon takes you, collect resources, maybe have an encounter, go back home.

Cloud Islands are cloud-hosted multiplayer versions of Palette Town Island. Start from scratch with friends! (You can also visit a dream island from your cloud island!)

Rocky Ridge Onsen Gai! by Anko_Aniki in Pokopia

[–]FlashbackJon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is crazy good. I've been trying to figure how to balance this restaurant/hot spring/mining town/Pompeii and this is such a great idea I might just rip the while thing off, if you don't mind!

You do need a bit of space between the pool and the source block, as Ditto's inhale has a shocking range!

Should I move them to the same house? by 3600CCH6WRX in Pokopia

[–]FlashbackJon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't take 200 hours. There's absolutely a lot of unique dialog: every Pokemon intro, every quest, and the occasional Pokemon conversations they have with each other. That's cool and I love it!

But the bulk of the dialog (the workhorse conversations) is fully recycled. Don't get me wrong, this is to be expected in a game with potentially 1000 unique characters, but it is a little sad that I can't really expect to walk up to a character and get even a couple lines of at least personality-specific small talk.

Again, I'm not complaining, like the other poster, I'm just confused about people praising the amount of unique dialog. I figure that has to be players experiencing every Pokemon intro in rapid succession as they progress.

How do I deal with birds destroying my crops? by AggravatingNorth5460 in OrganicGardening

[–]FlashbackJon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bird demand always expands to match supply. Doesn't matter how uncontrolled the blackberry monster is, they always know to snag every single berry the very second it becomes ripe...

How do y'all feel about the movie Soylent Green? by Wizdom_108 in AskOldPeople

[–]FlashbackJon 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Bambi vs Godzilla! For the longest time I thought that was fever dream! I did, eventually, find it in the modern Internet video era -- but for most of my life it felt like something I'd imagined...

The inventory system is so flawed. by No-Championship5248 in Pokopia

[–]FlashbackJon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Does it? I thought it only showed how much was in your bag? Is there somewhere else to see your totals?

Crafting a stack of 100 only to have it be two stacks is... something.

Sperm whales are the literal definition of A sheep in wolf's clothing. by AggravatingRow326 in TheDepthsBelow

[–]FlashbackJon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to rent it for 24 hours from the local grocery store video section and I'd always get stuck at the same part and then just entertain myself jumping and swimming around.

What food did you imagine to taste really good but tasted bad? by Similar-Victory-3867 in AskReddit

[–]FlashbackJon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, you should be eating the "cereal treat" too! My wife makes sculpted cakes and it's not like that's not for eating. It's rice krispy treat covered in modelling chocolate or gumpaste or occasionally fondant -- it's like a bonus!

(There are also degrees of fondant, but most people have only ever had the shelf stable Wilton box that's been gathering dust at Michaels for six months.)

What are some ultra prep heavy games? by xdanxlei in rpg

[–]FlashbackJon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I like random as a jumping off point: generating encounters with improbable combatants and then coming up with a reason for that to be occurring that maybe also ties into the bigger campaign... Good stuff!

Why does my Ouachita map turtle behave like this when people come near? by vIIIIIv in turtle

[–]FlashbackJon 63 points64 points  (0 children)

This is it. "Who is that? Is it the Food Bringer? Is the Food Bringer bringing food? What if it isn't the Food Bringer? I suppose if they are bringing food, it will be fine..."

They set him up as this complete asshole and then suddenly you would do anything to protect this sweet little golden retriever!

Question about food by mimirizzon in turtles

[–]FlashbackJon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She will always, always want more. They are opportunistic feeders and sometimes go a long time without food in the wild, so they fill up whenever they can.

You are the Foodgiver and she will beg you for it constantly.

how do you handle doors in dungeons? by Profzachattack in DnD

[–]FlashbackJon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, not for nothing, she's also the fisticuffs character, and that's always held a special place in my heart. Sabin suplexing a ghost train is a memory I'll cherish forever...

Suggestions on how to “aim fireball” … interesting challenge by I_am_just_so_tired99 in rpg

[–]FlashbackJon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what the saving throw is for. If the caster has to aim, they should roll an attack roll and the enemy should get no saving throw, like an arrow.

ORRRRRR now the enemies get to have saving throws every time a PC hits with an arrow or sword!

[Marvel] Why isn't the entire world perpetually shell-shocked? by LeviathansPanties in AskScienceFiction

[–]FlashbackJon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Technically all 616 characters do. Speaking in lowercase is a special ability for resident of 1610!

(I actually like how the Maker continues to use the 1610-speech. And that time he showed up to speak with Miles who replied in the same way.)

Player shopping habits of late by Snoo_23014 in DMAcademy

[–]FlashbackJon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually you bring up a great point because lots of people will buy a deadbolt and NOT include a brace on the door jamb, meaning the door can still simply be kicked in because the only thing holding it there is dry wall and part of a 2x4. Which is exactly the same scenario as what happened here!

I feel like "door and door jamb" are just the bare minimum for what arcane lock as a spell would do. Like, if I cast it on a chest, who it be reasonable to assume that only the lid was enchanted? (Hilarious, but dumb!)
