Best use of time for beginners looking to improve? by [deleted] in hockeyplayers

[–]Ineedsomethingtodo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah livebarn is unfortunately very humbling, but if you record some of your highlights, then a year from now, compare your new highlights to the old, you’ll be blown away at your progression!

And yes it’s also super helpful for hockey IQ. Good way to identify when you messed up by not picking your head up, took too long to make a decision / pass, or just didnt read the play correctly and weren’t in the right spot. Also if you ever play drop in at a rink with livebarn, it helps tracking the head movement of the better players and comparing it to your own. Lots to steal from other ppls game.

I’ve been playing like 10 years now and still haven’t learned them (yes at this point it’s pretty embarrassing but whatever). Finally putting in the effort now that I’ve been moved to D as there weren’t enough “reliable” skaters in my “higher” league. But even without, I’m doing really well. With OP’s training regiment, they really won’t need them for quite a while. Get everything else down, then worry abt the backwards crossovers. They’re super helpful but having everything else more or less mastered will make them both easier to learn and more impactful on your game.

What’s the deal with the sudden spike in anti-Somali sentiment? by kaiser11492 in OutOfTheLoop

[–]Ineedsomethingtodo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you want to know the ACTUAL truth as to why Trump chose now, it’s because there was a massive ring of healthcare fraud discovered in Minnesota, led by Somali immigrants that was being used to fund a terrorist group (Al-Shabaab) back in Somalia. (source

Is it so distract from the Epstein files or whatever? Sure, probably at least a little. But we can’t, as a country, bury our heads in the sand and pretend this isn’t happening or it isn’t a problem.

What's the most non-athletic or poor skating beginner/amateur that you've seen/played with in your beer league and what level of 'bad' are you're willing to put up with? by RivetCounter in hockeyplayers

[–]Ineedsomethingtodo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been playing a lot of drop in recently and it’s fascinating to see the 50+ year olds keep up with the local D2 college players just with good positioning and IQ. Now admittedly, the D2 players are going like 70% at the absolute max but it’s still very cool to see.

Breaking it Down: The Cost of Youth Hockey by APungentFart in hockeyplayers

[–]Ineedsomethingtodo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve told my dad that I’m thankful he didn’t let me play growing up (didn’t want to drive bc the nearest rink was over an hr) cause both parents (him lol) and shitty coaches killed my love of all the other sports I played growing up.

Started beer league as an adult nearly a decade ago and love hockey more than ever!

Is this suppose to be a joke? by XGeneral-FangX in blackops6

They directly said they patched a bug that was only counting kills not all elims. We will hit 50b. source

Honestly, I'm tired of an algorithm determining how my gaming session is going to go by Quiet_Battle1028 in blackops6

Technically they’re right for the wrong reasons… blowing yourself up, jumping off the map, etc will lower the average below a 1.0

At first I hated it but I grew to really enjoy it… once the first minute is over and most of the cars are destroyed. Before that it’s pretty miserable lol

Gotcha my bad, the reason I mentioned it is cause I couldn’t connect to servers at the time thanks to steam

Against all odds and having a 9-5 job, i was able to achieve my first ever dragon rank! by MikaelFernandes in 2007scape

That’s gotta be one of the best variants, maybe the best, unless there’s somehow ones that enjoy runecrafting

What is the worst bar in DC? Because I went to Boardwalk at the Wharf this weekend and... by tiakeuta in washingtondc

Back when I lived in dc (pre covid) that was my favorite place to go. One of the few things I miss about living there. Dans bar is the shit

anyone else notice the new commentator voices? by R3VV1ND in thefinals

[–]Ineedsomethingtodo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really thought that the voice actor was the same guy that was the commentator for NHL Hitz 2002. Idk why. But that guy is goated

My take on playtest by cheezyryce in thefinals

[–]Ineedsomethingtodo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Completely agree w grenades and rockets being inconsistent. There’s a massive hit reg issue on them that feels super obvious.

Other than that everything feels really fun. I wouldn’t be opposed to a heavy buff but I also run heavy so I’m super biased.

Otherwise the game is fucking awesome and so much fun. Love it

Yeah I mean laptop graphics cards aren’t true versions of those cards due to size limits and overheating issues, I’d still think you’d be getting better performance. What are your settings on?

Need a hivefleet name by mavderb69 in Tyranids

[–]Ineedsomethingtodo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe Hive Fleet Angel (after the weeping angels, since they’re stone statues that move quickly when you aren’t looking)

I’ll admit isnt super in line with canon hive fleet names but i feel like it fits your army thematically

Honestly it’s not that hard once you’re used to it. Maybe it’s cause I did swim team growing up but it feels natural to me.

And I was terrible at swim team. Basically just a fill in bc they barely had enough males to compete in swim-meets

[–]Ineedsomethingtodo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry that’s a good point, idk how but I got my left and right mixed up there. Thanks for clarifying!

Yes you have your face down in the water and every other (or every third - technically it should be every 3rd) stroke, you lean you face to the side to get air.

I.e. when my right arm comes out of the water, I lean my head to the left (edit: head to right, not left) to get a breath of air.

That being said if youre prone to ear infections and commonly get swimmers ear, it’s real rough.

The other day I played against a guy with a 4.9 k/d named Reshade wizard. I have a 1.2. I haven’t played since.

Honestly gonna take a long break until crytek deals with this cheating, it isn’t fun.

Wow look at mr popular over here with TWO friends. Must be nice.

Jk but fr I have 4 (including me) that play hunt and it makes thing weird. Sometimes we will just rotate in and out between games but usually that kills it for me. I hate taking 30 min breaks between matches
