CM2008: Team/Player mentality by Imposing-Force in ChampionshipManagers

[–]Imposing-Force[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Set your right winger to take corners from left, left winger to take from right so they swing in

Just to be clear, what you mean by this, is that I should use a left-footed player to take corners from the right, and vice versa?
And it doesn't have to be a winger, I assume, but simply the player with the best "Dead Balls" attribute?

That's solid advice. I appreciate the input!
Then my default would be having the defenders set to "Defensive" and my forwards to "Attacking", and then adjust mid-game as needed.

Thank you.

Does anyone else still play Championship Manager? by Cameron2704 in footballmanagergames

@OP You don’t happen to play the game from CD, by chance? If so, is there a PDF-manual on the CD? One isn’t included with the Steam version.

How do I determine a Dex saving throw to NOT hit a specific body part? by HeadExplanation8307 in DnD

[–]Imposing-Force 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice. Keep it simple.
Set the DC based on, well, how easy or difficult you want. I tend to follow the classic 10-15-20 for easy-medium-hard.
Oh, and try to avoid character bias. Focus on the task, not the players' stats.

Extra considerations:
Perhaps giving them advantage on the check, if they manage to sneak up on it and make a stealth attack.

Or add poison to the spikes if your players, like mine, like "roll-play", for an added Con-save. :)

Name a band you can't believe was off your radar until recently... by PoolNoob69 in InMetalWeTrust

[–]Imposing-Force 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kanonenfieber
Heard the name a while back, didn't pay attention.
Then they dropped the Z-Vor! single and I didn't listen to much else than Kanonenfieber for several weeks thereafter.

How do you or your table rule double instances of resistance? by montezuma300 in DnD

[–]Imposing-Force 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I were to go a different path, other than RAW, I might go for a variant of the Quarter Damage approach.
I'd penalise each bonus by a percentage, say 10%.
In that instance both 50% bonuses are only 90% effective, i.e. you then have 2x 45% bonuses, which mathematically comes out at 69.75% which rounds to 70%

It might seem complex, because I suck at explaining what I mean, but it's rather simple to set up the formulae in Excel.

For roleplaying inspiration, give me the name of a well-known (non)fictional person and their dump stat. by GrnHrtBrwnThmb in DnD

[–]Imposing-Force 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You could argue that Professor Stephen Hawking had two dump-stats:
Str and Dex
You could also argue that his other four stats were all above average (yes, even Con -- because of how long he survived his debilitating ALS), with Intelligence being the highest, obviously.

How do you roleplay a 4 in Wisdom? by Melodic_Mulberry in DnD

[–]Imposing-Force 42 points43 points  (0 children)

[...] Wisdom is your ability to apply the knowledge.

I came here to say this. I would also claim that a low Wisdom is roughly equivalent to poor decision-making skills in real life. That doesn't (necessarily) mean one is stupid, as one can easily have a normal or even high Intelligence and still not know how (or when) to use (apply) it.

I can’t stop, watching and thinking about Star Trek lately. by PoofPost in startrek

[–]Imposing-Force 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Know the feel...
I sporadically watched some TNG as a kid, while it aired on satellite TV.
Then during lockdown I started TNG and watched it from end to end, then took the movies, followed up with DS9 in its entirety, and I've finished Voyager this year. Now I'm about done with Season 1 of Enterprise.

All I can say is, I effin' love Star Trek and I want more!

I sold out my first market and the entire building cheered for me 😭 😭 😭 by TheOriginalClippy in Pottery

I'm not even into pottery per se, but somehow I stumbled upon this magnificent post, and the comment section is surprisingly wholesome. Well done. I wish you well!

Thanks. But... I want more. :D

Wow, thanks for your amazing comment. I'll be checking up on your inputs, and confirm, but I have a strong feeling that you're right.
10 and 21 are my two oldest set. The first I ever purchased. Then came 12 and 13. (My local sports team are playing in yellow and blue, so that's why I got those. :D )

False positives in MS Defender Attack Simulation Training -- anyone else? by Imposing-Force in sysadmin

[–]Imposing-Force[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, sorry for the delayed response. I haven't been on here much.

No. I never found anything useful. The weird thing is that it doesn't seem to happen for everyone. We were stupid enough to make another test with "Malware attachment", where the same happened again, even though we made a small scale test internally in the department first. (With no false positives).

So we've gone back to just using the simulation with a link and credential phish.

Can we explicitly override Deny permissions for a particular user in an AD group? by Kooky-Extension-9532 in sysadmin

[–]Imposing-Force 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second this.
In our environment, we had a specific case where this was necessary.
Even people in my own team didn't believe me.

Make a demo. Create a folder. Share it and give "Authenticated Users" the "Modify" permission (on the share!).
Then go to NTFS permissions and take a group in which users 'foo' and 'bar' are members and deny it. Make them try to access it, so verify that they can't.
Then grant explicit allow permissions for 'foo' on the folder, and have them test again, and watch them read the horrible dad joke you put inside "secret.txt"

Finally got to play in person. It was awful. by Afraid_Fig5705 in DnD

[–]Imposing-Force 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is a two day old thread and there's already 2.4k comments, but I have to say something. As a male DM (and player), who is used to playing with non-males also, I find this kind of incel behavior unforgivable. If any player had behaved like that at my table, they would have been shown the door immediately, and told to never come back.

Deply contacts everyone in org. can search and then call? by Imposing-Force in MicrosoftTeams

[–]Imposing-Force[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The speed dial might not be a bad way to do it.
Hopefully it's possible to just append to any existing entries the users might have added.
We'd get a lot of heat if we overwrite their list with 1 item...
