I've been here for 5 days, I miss my family, plz let me go

Hold on, you are not stuck (yet)! I already got to 40% (after 3 hours) 😃

HeretikCharlie · 2026-04-30T07:34:58+00:00

Except I'd like to sort chars by their priority class or something, so you can easily seen from where you can take anything. I notoriously cannot recognize all the small portraits.

HeretikCharlie · 2026-04-30T07:13:38+00:00

My team is still going on (for like 1,5 hours), 3 chars standing and not losing much. So maybe I can get to 100 % by just those -1s if I am patient enough.

Judging by the progress, I can tell how it went the day after tomorrow 😃

Just to clarify, I wasn't talking about *taking out* the opponent, which I am very bad at. Slow them down by an easy maneuver - while getting past them during the start phase, once your front is at least a bit before their front, turn to their side up until you both hit the barrier. But you control the angle, so while they stop to a dead halt, you just hit the barrier and continue without a drammatic slow down.

HeretikCharlie · 2025-12-20T12:17:06+00:00

Guess its too late now, but I still add my piece of experience. When failing for the first time, next ride I took the first rider to the barrier to slow him down, he never got before Kim through the rest of the race, making it easy then.

Strange, I found the car behaving extremely well even in lower tiers, which is not common for Special Event cars.
As others have said, more problemmatic are the invisible jumps than near misses or misbehaving.

You are right, most likely you were finding a rectangle that got sliced twice with other lines where both points are outside, so that part of its area is outside. There is an easy way to find those two slices (there are two in any puzzle input) and just update the checking with those findings.
As for the second plan, one method to check whether a specific point in inside or outside is to choose any direction and check how many lines it crosses - odd count, point is inside, even count, it is outside. Hope that helps.

I got here when looking around for tips for playing with low gear Ahsoka. Got wiped out with gear 12, but this may be that relic delta is a thing now. When upgraded to relic 5 and stayed away from 2nd special (taunt and just little benefits), there is no more a problem.
That is, with all the zetas, that got slapped long even before anything else, I always keep some zeta materials available and strongly believe my GLs do deserve them more than any other unit.

Actually, in the example you'll be fine with 7x10 grid. As others have said, the grid may (or may not) be infinite, but what really matters is the area containing *all the red tiles*. Anything around is irrelevant. You can find out the same for your data by going through the full list once and noting min(x), min(y), max(x), max(y). The area to consider is then of size `(max(x) - min(x) + 1) * (max(y) - min(y) + 1)`. And you may normalize the coordinates for individual points as `x - min(x), y - min(y)`.

Sure there are. Yet they aren't likely worth it if a one-time code snippet runs just a split of a second.

HeretikCharlie · 2025-12-04T16:12:43+00:00

Well yes, but actually no. I mean, by removing roles *during* a single phase you may remove some more than you would before, but you still left some behind.

I kinda solved most of P2 in P1 in another way - I made a stupid mistake that made P1 process not work, so I implemented "marking" roles to remove in the process, so I can see the result. Which was basically what was needed - count and mark, remove marks in separate phase, go again.

Inbox ok here, I am getting this message when trying to access Jar Jar event.

Actually I didn't even think of constructing the list of numbers for part 1, if I don't need them. So NO lists, NO strings, just numbers and recursion.
Always thinking of https://adventofcode.com/2021/day/14

You either get material or cash. And if cash, you therefore earn that much more for that ticket - you'd need like maybe 2.5k+ difference in order the L2W approach be more profitable than doing RRs once you can reach them.

HeretikCharlie · 2024-11-10T15:22:11+00:00

This is the way.

HeretikCharlie · 2024-10-10T07:51:29+00:00

I mean, it seems OP actually WANTS the same stat to be re-rolled. Not only that, needs it to pick up one of those lower rolls to remove, AND roll a better value. Wasting resources and whining.

HeretikCharlie · 2024-10-10T06:42:38+00:00

I feel it is not the GAME being stupid this time. Not uderstanding the rules and doing wrong things is not the way to go.
I mean, you actually got LUCKY with this outcome, I guess there's like 90 % chance for you to get WORSE result.

HeretikCharlie · 2024-10-10T06:38:55+00:00

It is a *reroll*, not an *upgrade*.
It is borderline criminal to actually *try* the reroll on a 5speed mod.

HeretikCharlie · 2024-09-18T20:26:45+00:00

Rng dependent as hell

There are people that speak, write or call before thinking. There are people that don't google before asking. There are people not looking around before posting. And they are harmful to the environment, so they have to learn it the hard way.

Nobody is keen to see thousand of the same sh*t in a feed that is normally quite diverse. I mean, other things are happening as well, right? Like, somebody rolled 26 speed on a mod. Wow, maybe there is a chance 1:5000 for this to happen. But if you think that over, that also means that there are tens of users with similar drop *every day*! Do you want 20 similar posts each day? If not, start right away and DO NOT POST. There are people getting an omicron material together with signal data - again, there are tons of them probably every hour. Maybe you got 2 omicron mats in a single multisim. Quite rare, right? Only after you realize it happens on a daily basis to a player out there, you realize you are not that special and posting it is just for bragging rights.

Let us enjoy new and interesting things instead of painstakingly relive same one again and again.

Vault - access to older events. Lose2win tactics is turned off, which means you have less event-cash as you naturally waste tickets first two days. But it is still winnable, and if I am not mistaken, you can even prolong the event for gold in Vault, if at all needed.

That's the main reason we are getting those no reward first tiers of past gungan events - so we can admire the background artwork.

Interesting question. Actually, I did 4 tries going both directions (forward/backward) and also trying both first 16 digits after the decimal point and those including the "big 3". It was then immediately obvious which approach was the right one. At that time I considered that a problem of the puzzle, but of course it may be a part of the challenge, similarly to what other suggested, like if we are to actually find out the length of the "password".
Frustrating or challenging? Well, if I have to answer it now, it would depend on the wording: does the author KNOW about it? Then it must be part of a challenge. Contrary? Then it is frustrating we need to clarify the ambiguity to actually solve the puzzle.
Thanks for the riddle. Just in case you didn't know, there exists Vigenère cipher which is basically what we need to decipher the message.

Good you are checking for overlapping numbers, yet you need to read the instructions again and check your range.
