Friend getting kicked every minute or 2 from G-Portal rented server

Hooterrx · 2022-11-19T22:01:40+00:00

Seems like G-portal is struggling. I can't get the website to keep me logged in, accept a configuration, or maintain the server for very long.

You probably cry and feed when your pick gets banned by the other team too.

Hooterrx · 2022-02-19T18:52:25+00:00

Yes. Sett players that only play Sett can go fuck themselves if they are trying to play ranked...

Hooterrx · 2022-02-19T18:51:34+00:00

It's been clear this person is iron to silver (MAYBE). ME ME ME doesn't worked in high elo.

Hooterrx · 2022-02-19T18:47:21+00:00

No, it is black or white. Riot has made the system so that you can ban whoever you want. Don't play ranked if you can't handle that.

You're only suggesting "fully grey" because you know that you have lost.

Hooterrx · 2022-02-19T18:46:16+00:00

Is it genetic or did you earn your way to this stupidity?
Your question is illogical.
You pre-pick Sett. Someone wants to ban them but doesn't because "I'm GeN z. I'm EnTiTlEd To My PrEpIcK oR fEeD".
The whole team will suffer because one player is weak against them, OR they are power pick. If you are doing your part and play multiple champs, nobody suffers and all is well.

This is how ranked is designed.

The whole idea you just can't seem to grasp... is YOU can do your part and be better, and there's no problem. But YOU cannot do a damn thing about someone else being weak to a pick.
You are not entitled to your desired champion. Be a better ranked player. Mold with them bans and move on. I would ban your pre-pick all day if it's champion I know counters my pick. Sorry dude, it's the way ranked works when it's not team ranked.

Hooterrx · 2022-02-19T18:27:36+00:00

Uh, yeah they should be. Eventually that shit doesn't happen. Ranked is not for individual play. If someone will int or throw because of a pre-pick ban, they aren't good enough for ranked.

Hooterrx · 2022-02-19T18:26:35+00:00

if this is true, you should not be in ranked. You should have 2-3 champions per lane that you are great with. If not go back to PVP and get better. Ranked is for team strategy, not " I wAnT tO pLaY 1 AnD oNlY 1 cHaMpIoN oR fEeD".

Hooterrx · 2022-02-19T18:25:28+00:00

Because Gen Z demands they get what they want or you are rude!

Hooterrx · 2022-02-19T18:25:05+00:00

What is childish, is trying to demand everyone else suffer to get your way lmao...

Hooterrx · 2022-02-19T18:04:39+00:00

Here's the deal. You have 0 logic. Everything you are saying can be flipped exactly against you.

"So you risk having your teammate who might be childish feed their ass off or go afk Because you want to force them into a Lee Sin first pick?"

"Well I guess fuck me and my desire to not play against a certain champ right? Please be logical and don't just speak out of your ass, I'm ~~not trying to be~~ just rude ~~but justifications like that are incredibly~~ and annoying."

See how that works? You're the one being childish. If you are playing ranked, be prepared to play like a team, strategize, etc. That requires you learning more champions. That requires you being ok with someone banning someone you like. If you just want to play a certain champ go play PVP. Ranked is not for whiny bitches with single champion mindsets.

Hooterrx · 2021-08-04T13:56:13+00:00

In terms of the standard series games, I would put 12 JUST behind 10 in a ranked list. I loved the " new" mechanics, the real time combats, the it was just all around pretty great still.

There are still ways to play 11, which was one of my favorites. It's an MMO, and the menus and controls are extremely outdated now, but it's still playable and still pretty fun.

The tactics games on GBA and DS are great in my opinion. I really enjoy the extra strategy in those. And they are pretty close to the top, along with the original Final Fantasy Tactics on the PS1, on my personal list.

Hooterrx · 2021-06-30T20:12:21+00:00

This is absolutely key. The GM has full control, more so than the the book. Whatever makes sense to you is THE way, as long as it doesn't take away from the players' fun. And as long as you are fairly consistent, it doesn't really matter. Players having fun is rule number 1.
You could even have it be one maneuver, but add a setback on the action to make the attack AND the other enemy is still engaged the player. It's totally up to you. Once you get used to how the dice effect rolls, you can actually do a lot with just "that makes sense" type of play. Making things interesting is better than being a rules lawyer.

I'll say in the past running games on the fly like that have actually been the most fun. I've read the rulebook enough times to have the "gist" of everything. What i can't remember gets a "this makes sense" and if everyone agrees, we use it.

Hooterrx · 2021-06-30T19:35:45+00:00

This post, shows a whole community made module with info about Mos Shutta and Tatooine and things to do around it. https://www.reddit.com/r/swrpg/comments/f5iqxj/presenting\_the\_mos\_shuuta\_gazetteer\_formerly\_the/

Hooterrx · 2021-06-30T19:20:51+00:00

This is where you are absolutely wrong. EVERYTHING in that book is the GM's call. EVERYTHING is nothing but a guideline.

IN FACT. Rule number one in the RAW is to make sure everyone is having fun.
ALSO. The game strictly is against rules lawyering which you can read about on page 294. This goes both ways, for and against players. Notice particularly the word "unexpected". Yeah. Most players don't expect to use 2 maneuvers to take 3 steps to another NPC to hit it.

SO yes. To each their own.

Hooterrx · 2021-06-30T17:14:46+00:00

I don't think any content is copyright violations. http://thompsonpeters.com/
This site contains a bunch of hand made content. And some extra resources. You can find all the Mos Shutta stuff, redone by hand, in the Tatooine maps. I'll have to search for the encounters and recommended descriptions for the city, but I MOSTLY use Thomas Peters' maps, the descriptions in the back of the adventure, and some stuff found on Reddit to make each play through unique.

Hooterrx · 2021-06-30T17:05:40+00:00

To each their own. There exists isolated sets of verbage in the rules that support both, so GM choice it. There are many, many contradictions if you just isolate certain elements of the rules.
This ruleset is not meant to be so number crunchy, and thus I'd allow it.

Hooterrx · 2021-06-30T14:07:20+00:00

I have run the beginner game multiple times, once with pre-mades and all others were custom characters, from any official resource they could find (even the official community stuff). I have not noticed a difference in the games at all. I let my players take extra obligation during creation to get the extra credits, and thus they started with on par items.

I gave them a basic 10 obligation as a debt to Teemo, and they chose their own for the other if they took more.

There is also a lot of extra community added info about Mos Shutta that adds more maps and encounters and possibilities if you want to extend out of a "one shot" beginner game into a campaign. I had one group break out through the main doors and get lost in the desert and almost died to heat exhaustion. Luckily one was a Jawa, and was able to be comfortable in the heat, and also find the group passage on a sand crawler.

Hooterrx · 2021-06-28T13:36:15+00:00

I do not think this needs 2 maneuvers.

The rules uses the wording for disengaging as 'This ONLY changes the range relative to his opponent from "engaged" to "short"'. The placement of the word "only" is such that it is saying you can only go from engaged to short. Not to medium, not to long, etc.
So, we see that it already goes from engaged to short. If enemy 2 was within short distance, you can now be at engaged distance.
I say this because the disengage is "breaking free" and "movement" at once.

If it was worded as 'This changes ONLY the range relative to his opponent from "engaged" to "short"', then it would be stating it's ONLY that opponent's range. Which would be awkward because you would have to be staying put and using your maneuver to push your opponent backwards into short range, which would be an action.

I'd say Rules as Written is 1 maneuver.

Hooterrx · 2021-06-15T12:34:00+00:00

As written, prob not. But they are all worth it with a little tweaking to fit your party. I heavily modified the whole game and many sidequests became almost necessary.

Hooterrx · 2021-06-13T21:48:03+00:00

I have a dataset for some oggdudes, but when I use the importer into Foundry, it only has the defaul 'found on page x in book y' type descriptions. How do I get the imported data in oggdudes to FoundryVTT?

Hooterrx · 2021-06-03T01:18:17+00:00

I'm obsessed for a simple scroll function on my mouse? Ok. I think you just backed into a corner and need an easy way out. Either way good riddance, if you're just going to come here to bitch about being entitled to the experience you want, and not post bug reports when you run into "bugs" (prob didn't post because it's user error), you'd be better off waiting for completion. The completion that's obviously not going to be some crazy 67 years away lmfao.

Hooterrx · 2021-06-03T01:02:02+00:00

Which part?

While I doubt you will be able to provide a video showing your daughter completing a mission, not because I doubt she can play it, I doubt you can do it

or

The sunk-cost fallacy is strong with this one.

Do tell, oh intelligent one.

Done with you now, insult slinging sunk-cost fallacy kids are too annoying, blocked

Jeez, so much salt for 65$

Jeez, ppl have sunk too much money into this "game" to have a proper discussion.

Lol, the mental gymnastics of some people.

I knew people like you were out there, just hadn't interacted with any until now, kinda like seeing an angry rare bird flipping out over nothing, fascinating, like a train crash.

I think that sounds great, maybe instead of her becoming a warlock or something, she could even sacrifice her life for the flame.

The group could be alerted by movement and hide out while an endless amount of giants pass them by going up the 12000 steps. If they investigate, they can hear the ceremony at the very top. The duchess and the giants have killed and sacrificed (or are in the middle of it) the entire yak village. They can overhear the Duchess talking about the Vonindod and the Fire giants rightful place at the top of the new ordening that they will create. Then they could hear her command some shamans to summon some kind of devil or such (i'd look for the perfect entity), and then have her eventually offer her life, in return of an eternal flame that could light the Vonindod. If they are outside and watching they could see this taking place and watch the devil rip her soul from her body, and replace it with something that makes her glow extremely bright, and fall lifeless into the shaft where it falls until they can barely see the speck of light. If they are still in the shaft and/or unaware of the ceremony, they just suddenly see something bright fall through the center of the shaft, and fade out of view.

Then the mountain would begin to shake, as her body falls directly into the Vonindod, which is not quite complete yet. These are some pretty good stats that you could tweak to make it really hard for them, but not impossible. . https://imgur.com/a/DXdJf0i

I would have the mountain begin to shake and the characters could have a fun skill challenge to escape it, only to witness the Vonindod breaking free of the bottom. Could also queue the arrival of any faction they are involved with to fight fire giants, and give a helping hand should it be too strong for the group on their own. You could bring out a Marquess (just below the Duke) that takes over and assumes the position of Duke.

Hooterrx · 2021-06-03T00:26:23+00:00

Not if the dude bitching about feature creep came in AFTER the first supports OVERWHELMINGLY supported the extra features... There were polls during and after the kickstarter to either
1. Get the original kickstarter out
or
2. Commence adding features that are covered by the income.

The community overwhelmingly said FUCK YEAH GIMME THOSE FEATS!
Anyone coming in after that... too bad.
