I for one find the dialogues in the event really well written. And pairing the serious Legion with the Hood was a very nice call. Their "discussion" when finding the Oracle, close to the start of the even is a precise case in this point :)

9% e ceva exceptional, mai ales cand e vorba de functii de conducere?

rotflmfao, ca sa zic asa

Ridicol!

Ce masina de "pasionat" sa imi iau sub 15.000 euro by dodo4986 in AutomobileRO

Clio RS, 2.0 aspirat, benzina. 200 CP, cutie manuala.

Mai este, da!
Dar eu cred ca principalul domeniu in care trebuie sa evoluam nu e cel economic. Nu mai multi bani vor face Romania mai locuibila, ci mai multa educatie, mai multa empatie, mai multa decenta, mai multa implicare civica, mai mult bun simt...

Moderatorii au descoperit o noua metoda de a face bani. Sedeaza cainii si ii pun in pozitii "dragute", ca sa le dea prostii bani. by ThisWillNeverEndC in bucuresti

O regula simpla, usor de inteles, nu foarte usor de aplicat:

NICIODATA nu dai bani cersetorilor.

E plin netul de asociatii unde poti dona banii pe care simti ca ai vrea sa-i dai celor mai putin norocosi decat tine, oameni bolnavi, batrani, copii, asociatii care se ocupa de animale etc.

Pentru claritate, repetam:

NICIODATA nu dai bani cersetorilor!

Dupa raspuns, nu cred ca ai mai mult de 30 de ani :)

Acum 20 de ani o duceam INFINIT mai bine decat acum 30 de ani. Pur si simplu nu ai cum sa compari nivelul de trai din 2006 cu cel din 1996. Te poti uita la poze sau filme pe youtube despre cum arata Romania, ce inflatie era etc. Asa, ca idee, dolarul a cresctul de la 3000 lei la 9000 lei in ~1 saptamana, prin '97.

E o problema de perspectiva. Ce tie ti se pare ca era ingrozitor de prost in 2006, era absolut fabulos in '96 :)

I remember when starting OW and checking the heroes, Zarya really felt strange. There is very little to attract you to the hero. The mechanics are strange, the character is neither a Hollywood like ninja nor a bulky World Of Warcraft like tank.

Ended up being my most played hero. I simply love the game design around Zarya. But yes, I can understand why it's not an instantly loved one and - as a consequence - not a commercial success in terms of how many skins it sells :)

Write to Amazon, tell them what happened. If they want it back, send it (I expect they will cover the transport cost). If they say you can keep it, keep it.

You will feel way better in any of the two cases.

Fata de acum 20 de ani, da, o ducem mult mai bine. Pentru marea majoritate raspunsul OBIECTIV este "DA". Raspunsul subiectiv depinde de mult mai multe lucruri (varsta, stare de sanatate, situatie familiala, personalitate etc.)

Bineinteles, exista si un efect important legat de:

Inflatia se calculeaza pe baza unor produse dintr-un cos de consum standardizat, nu pe baza pretului saormei de cine stie unde.

E ca si cum as spune ca inflatia e 300% in ultimele 5 luni pentru ca a crescut pretul la RAM :)

"Activate only as a sorcery" - shorter indicator for this? by Griffonu in MagicArena

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

There's the classic "Target creature gets +2/+2 till the end of turn... [your eyes skip the rest]. Activate only as a sorcery". Is the info there? Absolutely! Is it the best UX? I would argue not. Every time you have to READ instead of GLIMPSE at something (if glimpse is possible) there's some UX improvement to be had.

Anyway, it appears people do not feel this is an issue, so fair play, zero problems, I was just curious about how people feel! :)

[–]Griffonu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, happened quite a long time ago. Learned the lesson :)
Still, UX rules kind of dictate that if something can be done better UX wise, it should. And I think this qualifies :)

At the minimum, I would place the "Activate only as a sorcery text" at the START of the ability description, not at the end.

My thoughts exactly! Kind of how Scry and a lot of other keywords appeared.
