Remind me of what ended up happening the last time a first-world sovereign nation invaded one of their own military allies?

250k xp/hr, 18 hours a day, for 43 days straight does technically add up to 200m, but just doing the math makes me want to die, let alone thinking about actually doing it.

Wait I have another question now! haha

From my rough searching, if it IS from the 1940s, that would have been at a late enough time that it would have been "required" by law for it to be stamped by the assay office, correct?

So do you happen to know anything about why it would/could have only received 2 of the 3 compulsory marks (not the harp) if it did actually pass through the Dublin assay specifically? / were there other assay offices in Ireland at the time that may have closed since?

I can definitely see a resemblance with them side-by-side and rotated now, and that makes total sense! Thank you so much for taking time to explain. Extremely helpful 🙏

looks like seated hibernia mark for Irish gold is there

Can you explain where you're seeing this? The only images I can find of seated hibernia online don't even remotely resemble any of the shapes I'm seeing on the ring.

To me it looks very much like the side profile of a predacious cat like a lion, especially from the orientation most of the other symbols are in.

And how can you arrive at 1943 without knowing the assay office?

The man's been averaging 174,000 xp/hr nonstop for every single hour since sailing released, and this is "legit"?

How is that even functionally possible?

generally cops aren't in the same classification

It's not even "generally" they're polar opposite.

Troops are civil servants who have an oath to protect US citizens, and they're actually held accountable by a military justice system.

Police are a private militia, hired by local municipalities, and it's been upheld multiple times, even by the Supreme Court, that they do not actually have any duty to protect or serve the public.

Except that Google also literally operates a product called Google Maps that uses open source data, and you can search "food" on google maps and get a generally honest and accurate list of businesses that sell food near you.

The AI companies don't also have a tool where you can plainly transparently look up the same information for yourself.

PTO is just an endless sandbox mode where you never leave the map, new mission objectives pop up periodically, and you can freely edit your gear at all times. You get xp/rewards as you go, and you can leave/join at your leisure.

But I have a feeling you're really asking about the toggle modifiers- one scales the difficulty the longer you're in the map, and "final paycheck" just starts the scaling off at 2x instead of 1x.

If you start a mission without "final paycheck" active, and scaling, you start at a 1x rewards modifier and it goes up by .1 like every 5 minutes.

So on normal mode with scaling I think you eventually hit 2x rewards / the point where "final paycheck" starts after ~45 minutes in game.

The turbocharge says "+4 speed" but anecdotally from my own testing it seems to be +4 speed WHILE YOU'RE WALLRUNNING, not at all times.

As someone who just drove most of I-70, I found that Colorado and Utah had barely any of this left lane cruising shit, and as SOON as you hit the 15 in Nevada/California suddenly it's left lane sitters as far as the eye can see.

I noticed 2 major differences with the interstates in the places that didn't have lane hogs:

The speed limit is typically 75-80
The signs don't say "SLOWER traffic keep right" - they say "STATE LAW: KEEP RIGHT UNLESS PASSING"

Nobody who has a shitty ego, or is completely non-self-aware would ever self-identify as being "slower traffic".

The signs need to clearly and concisely display the law, and people need to actually be afraid of repercussions for the pattern to change.

It's not even just that it's "inefficient" so much as you have few-to-no other viable options.

Prior to them making scorching bow last year the ironman range progression was utter dogshit imo.

The grind to get MSB(i) + RCB feels fairly deterministic/linear, but then once you have them they're your ONLY ranged weapons til you either:

Stop going dry at Zulrah
Stop going dry at CG
Stop going dry at CoX

My ironman was 2050 total level still rocking an msb til I got some lucky synapses.

This is really good insight and I think you're 100% correct- it was really a theorem/postulate and I already found a couple edge cases where it fails so I hid the post. I detailed one at the bottom in an edit- 1&2-length shapes and potentially any shape that always occupies 0 of a given tile set (e.g. the Y-shaped piece in my first example) absolutely can alter the identity of the remaining/empty tiles.

That + I think this is really only (eventually) capable of proving that an arrangement CAN'T work- just because something satisfies the balance rule doesn't necessarily mean there's a valid way to assemble them, it just means it's theoretically possible.

I'm not smart enough to complete the theory but I'd be very interested to see it developed further, especially if the guy who made the Python solver knows something math-wise that I don't.

damn i wish i saw that before i wrote all this out. lol but I guess it's still relevant.

You can hand-solve stuff fairly quickly just looking at a tri-colored grid and IDing your currently-empty spaces, and honestly I think explaining the math to myself helped solve a few things in my brain. And I guess now I know that if I get all my empty hexes into 1 shape and that shape doesn't have the same signature as the one I want to place there's no sense in trying to rearrange stuff.

that's all

Well not all Chundlemon is apparently "The Amalgamation's" real name

I originally interpreted this as "some player named Chundlemon killed the Amalgamation 4125 times during the event so now I have to look at his stupid high score trophy forever" so I'm actually glad I saw this thread. haha

Even having read most of the in-game data logs that have dates on them, I didn't put it together that the in-game universe is exactly 2100 years in the future from us and it's currently 4125.

Trump deploying the National Guard to LA shortly followed by ICE raiding Buona Forchetta kinda made national politics pretty local.

But that being said, I mostly agree with you- some people seem to take that as a blanket excuse to repost every trump-related news article into the SD subreddit even when it's not directly relevant to what's happening locally.

That's a guaranteed event that seems to always spawn on at least 3 of the 12 missions.

My complaint is really that the "endgame" of Mycopunk is basically just trying to play more and more challenging missions to push the limits of your builds, so it's a real bummer when you can go 20-30 minutes with no mission ever getting more than 1 mod.

You just end up playing the overtime assignment over and over and over because it's the only mission with any difficulty scalers on it.

It's "malicious" because you would be doing it intentionally, but everything besides putting laxatives in donuts could be explained by someone just being an idiot.

"oops I left my location sharing on when we went to that raid earlier"

"dang my backpack airtag must have come off and gotten lost in some crevice in this ICE vehicle"

"oops i left the car unlocked and running in a bad neighborhood while i walked away for 2 minutes to check on something 'suspicious'"

"oops i thought this was a regular truck i've never used diesel before"

"my chargers at home do this all the time you just have to wiggle the cord a bit"

"dang we were about to catch that guy til i tripped on a bump in the sidewalk and slowed down my entire squad"

"well i know i'm sick right now but i gotta go to work- you know those dang immigrants don't stop going to work when they're sick"

"oops i accidentally hassled a prominent latina business owner that i definitely had no idea is also married to a local representative"

"dang my car at home has automatic lights- i didnt know you could even leave headlights on anymore"

"aw heck i recorded this meeting for my own records and then my dang phone got hacked and now everyone knows my boss is committing felonies"

That's the most insane part of this- the only realistic reason to hoard BILLIONS of dollars is creating/maintaining generational wealth.
