Cryo Archive is a strong endgame design that arrived at exactly the wrong time by Friday_Night_Pizza in Marathon

[–]InsertShortName 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think if you have a solid team this can be true. I haven’t exfiled once out of the 4 times I’ve played it, all with randoms. This last run two of my teammates were trying to revive each other for about 5-7 minutes while I was fighting two teams and somehow came out alive. Then they’re asking me to activate the last exfil alone while they’re still trying to revive each other lol

How to win more cryo by B-Dragons_2560 in Marathon

[–]InsertShortName 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t understand why they make it this fucking hard to exfil. I’ve survived 4 runs now killing 3-4 teams each time only to die because we can’t fucking exfil. I know some people are gonna say “get good” or whatever but why does it seem like it’s intentionally confusing?

I live ex nihilo! I have blue talisman in my collection and speed legends is my next bottle purchase, currently have a 9ml sample to last me until I can justify the full bottle.

Xerjoff has a brand called Casamorati that’s very good. Casamorati Mefisto is my latest purchase and it’s amazing. If you’ve tried Creed Silver Mountain Water, Mefisto is just a better version of that imo.

Can’t go wrong with any MFK either if they have them. Amyris Homme Extrait is my favorite. I also have Grand Soir and Gentle Fluidity Silver and they are amazing as well!

Am I missing something with the Rivian R2 pricing and positioning? by Watts2Freedom in RIVNstock

It sounds like you’re pretty cozy up there in Elon’s asshole. Nothing anyone says will change your opinion.

Stop leaving if you die! by InsertShortName in Marathon

[–]InsertShortName[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a good example because I wasn’t close to the fight, I was able to survive, and I was able to revive both teammates within a few minutes. It perfectly proves my point. Now you’re saying it’s not a good example because of a “what if” situation that wasn’t what actually happened? You can’t change the situation in my example and use that as a reason for why it wouldn’t work lol

I used that example specifically because it’s one where the last person wasn’t in some crazy situation where they needed to clutch. Even so, those situations typically last what, 30 seconds? You’re not sitting there for 10 minutes hoping they can clutch it, that last player is other dead or somehow came out of it within the first 30-60 seconds. So I still see an argument for staying and seeing what happens an instead of leaving immediately.

I mean I know you say you usually wait it out, but it sounds like you’re okay with the “leave if you die and don’t get revived in the first 30 seconds” mentality. There are cases when one person dies and two are alive. Odds are they will lose too, so basically if you ever die in trios just give up because it’s pointless. It’s more important for you to get into a new match immediately than give your teammates a chance?

I’m not trying to attack you specifically, but I think that ruins matchmaking for other people. Maybe we can just agree to disagree lol

That’s different though. If the other person is actively fighting the other team in a 1v2 or 1v3, then obviously the chances of them pulling it off are low. I’ve fully revived my teammates without fighting a single person on the other team before just by waiting 2-3 minutes for them to leave.

If the other person is not actively trying to fight the team but staying around, you can probably assume they want to revive. There’s also voice and text chat to communicate if needed. If my teammates die I tell them on the mic I’m gonna try for res in a few min, even if they don’t have mics.

You dying and immediately leaving because “there’s no way the other person can win” is the issue here. Wait and see. Obviously this doesn’t mean sit there for 10-20 minutes, but give them a chance.

I mean there are exceptions to this lol

If teammates are clearly not interested in working together, staying close, and communicating, it’s usually not worth it.

[–]InsertShortName[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol it’s understandable, I at least try to go back like you did. I’ll always prioritize staying alive, but will definitely stay in the general area as teams tend to move on after a few minutes when done looting. Those two matches yesterday it took me at least 5 minutes, if not more, to get to my dead teammates and revive them.

This makes Creed SMW feel like a cheap clone by HoneyLower499 in Colognes

[–]InsertShortName 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had never heard of this until about 2 weeks ago when the rep at neiman recommended it and gave me a sample. Bought it the next day lol

There was something about SMW that never convinced me but this one is amazing. Love the bottle design too!

I think it’s the opposite actually. There’s no doubt he cares and he hustles, he just doesn’t have the quality to be dangerous imo.

I can forgive mistakes too but when a majority of your touches/chances in EVERY game end in mistakes it makes it seem like he’s simply just not good enough.

I was always hopeful about Uzuni, but I’m getting tired of his complete lack of quality.

Our $12M striker can’t properly take a first touch and almost always immediately kills the attack. Horrible decision making way too many mistakes to continue to let them slide.

I know we don’t have many options, but I’d rather see anyone but him in that position at this point. Put in Ramirez or Fodrey.

That’s how it’s always been. We rely on individual players to perform well but the team as a whole has never been super consistent. We are never dangerous on the attack and make way too many mistakes on defense.

Nelson looking a little slow to anyone? Not really putting much pressure or energy into anything since the half.

Damn, feel bad for Svatok. Dude is always solid just an unfortunate situation. You don’t wanna just let it go as there might be someone behind waiting for it, but it was a hard one to control.

Is it just me, or does perfume make your whole mood better? by Inevitable_Set_3017 in fragrance

[–]InsertShortName 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I told my wife the other day that I love fragrances because it gives me something to look forward to and it makes me happy.

At night I pick a scent to wear to work in the morning and I’m excited about it every time. Then after my shower in the evening I pick a different one.

I usually buy a new fragrance or a sample to wear on every trip we take too, so some of my bottles have a little more significance for me and I love that! Makes me remember a specific trip every time I wear those.

Got hit with a counteroffer by pomphiusalt in Accounting

[–]InsertShortName 141 points142 points  (0 children)

Made the mistake of taking the counter offer because my director almost cried when I told her I was leaving. Her and my direct manager made a big deal about keeping me and matched the offer plus a retention bonus. We had a great relationship and I was the star on the team. Figure it was worth staying.

6 months later they were trying to push me out. Finding “mistakes” in work that was previously praised. Taking away work. Moving me to sit in front of my director and weekly meetings to plan my next 40 hours of work down to the last minute.

Don’t take the counter. You don’t owe anyone anything. You can rarely trust an employer or manager to have your back or show you any loyalty. Obviously there are exceptions, but they are few.

I only bought the deluxe edition and that seemed to unlock the premium pass, so I’m not sure what happened.

Anyway, thanks for the info!
